@FragRed Is there much of a demand for that kind of game anywhere?

Seriously - I don't mean to be sly or throw shade on baseball but looking back at old magazines from the early 90's the import review pages were always full of endless almost (to my eye) identical looking baseball games. Watching Chrontendo it's also clear that at one point nearly every other game on the NES was a baseball game. I know there's still some around but hardly any compared to what it once was.

To be fair sports games of all types have become rarer and less diverse over time but it seems especially pronounced with baseball games because they were once so common.

@Joytendo22 Beach Buggy Racing coming next week. Don't know why though.

@Yasaal I like how my post was the only one that didn't get an article

@Joytendo22

Thanks for that. Impressive list.

Do you know of a comprehensive list of future releases anywhere?

@Joytendo22

Thanks for that. Can't believe I didn't think of looking there.

Tempted to get Axiom physical, but already own it on PSN from last year....

As a minimum I want to get Binding of Isaac, Lego Worlds, FIFA 18, Fire Emblem Warriors, and Mario Odyssey, not to mention Samus Returns, in the next month. Something's going to have to give...

Binding of Issac is highly recomended...
This coming from someone that doesnt like fake video games... its really good.

@Samus7Killer "Fake video games"?

Alright. Youve gone off the deep end buddy.

I think I need to close my eyes and stick my fingers in my ears, because there are way too many games coming up... SteamWorld Dig 2 and Mario Odyssey are must-haves, in my eyes, but I'm going to struggle not to buy Fifa and Axiom Verge. Thimbleweed Park is a toss-up between Switch and iOS (supposedly coming soon), and will come down to pricing and release dates.

Fortunately, I don't really get the musou thing, otherwise FE Warriors, DBX 2 and the One Piece game would all catch my eye.

@BLP_Software i am the deep end buddy.
Yeah and its fake game Prequel looks good too.

@Samus7Killer What do you mean by "fake game"?

Fake games = indies and other low budget or niche games, I guess.

@Octane Ah, Diamond. I remember it well.

@Hieronymus-E I still have both actually.

Things that seem like games at first but then you look closer and they're actually tacos. That's my guess.

The closest thing I can think of that is actually a fake game is the "quiet game" our parents would have us play. Or those online ads that have you answer a trivia question or shoot a target, but when you click on it, it actually downloads a virus onto your computer.

@Octane I had that diamond, let me dial my Pokemon, and see if they care to visit. sees mon roll around hi there, shall we battle?

@UmniKnight Yup, it was so weird, you had to take their location into account and the time it took for them to travel to you. I've lost plenty of battles because half my party arrived too late.

I wonder if there any fan translations of the real Telefang games, I'd love to play those some day...
