That Nintendo Direct "Mini" was pretty decent! There was something for about everyone IMO. I'm especially happy for Persona fans; I might give one of the titles a try as well one day.
@MarioLover92 That boost system in both X and GX sounds like an interesting concept indeed! Unfortunately, I'm not surprised GX is stuck in limbo right now since it's a GCN title. Glad to know X is more accessible though. I've onoi played the first game via the SNES Mini.
@Sunsy Oh that's good you enjoyed them. Yeah absolutely...that's why many of my tees have Mario and many other characters on them. One of my favorite ones is one that has 2D designs of Mario and many of the other characters standing together as a group, just like one of those old Club Nintendo posters. I still have that poster up too, it's definitely one of my favorites!
@Tyranexx Oh yeah absolutely, when it was first announced, I was initially let down because the other partner showcases didn't really impress me, and I was hoping for a regular one with Nintendo's next games. Looks like they blew my expectations out of the water, I found quite a few that I'd totally dig!
Yeah I'm glad FZX is at least more accessible - I know that some people prefer X over GX, too. I did like Maximum Velocity as well, that one was on the GBA and it's got very similar gameplay to the SNES original, but with different courses, vehicles, and settings. GP Legend, which was also on the GBA, was all right but it was pretty underwhelming for me. It's been years since I played it, but I do remember that game being ridiculously easy. That was the last F-Zero game that came out over here.

Ask if you want to be Switch friends with me, but I'd like to know you first. Thanks! ❤️
Have a nice day. Voiceactor: The Pirates! (Sony/Aardman 2012) - The Passion: A Brickfilm (Neema 2019) - The Torchlighters: The Story of John Newton (Vision Video 2022) - [NEW] Minno's Laugh and Grow Bible (Minno - 2024)
Santa didn't get the memo, Christmas came six months early this year. Not that I'm complaining, I feel like I've had the best dream. I woke up and... it's still real!
Everyone with a Switch I am literally begging you, buy NieR, and all three Persona games. You won't regret it.
@MarioLover92 That's really cool. I'm glad My Nintendo is doing some sort of physical rewards again, maybe I might try to go for something one day with some of the platinum points I've gotten from the NSO rewards.
Now I'm reminded, anyone else remember the posters Nintendo Power use to give away. I think I have a PSO 1&2 poster folded up in a draw.
The resident Trolls superfan! Saw Trolls Band Together via early access and absolutely loved it!
@Sunsy I'm glad they're doing physical rewards again, as late as they may have been. I do have quite a few of them! I remember those Nintendo Power posters too. That PSO 1 and 2 poster you mentioned, that was from an issue from the GameCube/GBA era, wasn't it? I think I had one for Alien Syndrome long ago, or whatever that game's called.

@MarioLover92 I admit some of the previous partner showcases were a mixed bag. I wasn't bothered by the announcement since I learned long ago to temper my expectations. It makes things MUCH easier when I'm not constantly expecting Mother 3, Metroid Prime 4, or fully optimal ports of Final Fantasy VII Remake. XD
I completely forgot there were F-Zero titles on the GBA. I've heard of Maximum Velocity before, but not GP Legend. Perhaps your impression was similar to the masses, so it isn't exactly the most popular title?
@Tyranexx That's good you took it well. I guess it was kind of my fault, then. We did get a good showing nonetheless, and to be fair, Nintendo's probably not quite ready to show details on Breath of the Wild 2 or whatever the next Mario platformer's gonna be, to give a couple examples. Hence the partner showcase. They've probably been brainstorming ideas for those two, I bet.
Yeah, I would imagine so. GP Legend wasn't exactly a big seller IIRC, and I had more fun with the other games in the series. I think F-Zero's popularity was waning at that time, perhaps that played a part in the lack of a new entry.
Oh yeah, you probably saw it already, but Capcom's making a Mega Man Battle Network collection. Which is a good thing because I wanted the MMBN games on the Switch anyway! I wonder how they'd do the link cable battles, though.

@Tyranexx
I got impressed by Megaman Battle Network Legacy Collection since I have never played those GBA games before and to find those GBA games in legit copy (no reproduction cart) with cheaper price was nearly impossible. I heard also the Legacy Collection will be available on PS4 version so it will be perfect candidate for both my PS4 & Switch machines.
Other games I got interested were Doraemon Story of Seasons sequel that I will pick the PS5 version, Mario + Rabbids Spark of Hope, Fishing Spirits: Fish and Play Aquarium (Mini Direct Japan). PacMan remake was not really sure with the gameplay before I watched the gameplay from YouTube.
After five years of being on nintendolife, my mind, just now, made the connection that "Hookshot Media" is named after the hookshot in zelda games.🤣 Nice work brain!<3
@korosanbo
Thank you. 😃
I was quite nervous playing DDR blinfolded with PS2 controller so I got lesser Perfect and it affected with my score I got (I will got AA if I got more Perfect than Great). 😅
