Wild Guns Reloaded Is Saddling Up For A Switch Release This Spring

They should make good use of the Joy-Con's. Gunslinging style, with one in each hand using the gyroscopes.

Yes, please!

Tangent, but the trailer made me think about it - You know what genre I miss these days? On rails shooters such as Virtua Cop and House of the Dead. I'd even settle for ports of those games, but it's such a fun genre - especially for two players.

ok

The perfect game at long last on the perfect platform. Thank you Natsume! Now, lets talk NinjaWarriors Return reboot...

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Agreed. It would be awesome to have a game that plays a little like the good old Time Crisis but with 2 guns.

Awesome! This looks great. I wish more games from the 80's and 90's would get this much love. The visuals are gorgeous and the gun powerups seem to be more hardcore now. I would love to see a new Hammerin Harry.

@lillith Sin and Punishment dilogy, too.

YES!

@nhSnork MEGA YES!!!

w00t So glad I waited.

@Shiryu Your lips to their ears....I would lose my mind if that happened.

@Ryu_Niiyama

I read it as Wild Arms. Imagine my disappointment.

@Shiryu Are we the mooks begging for the re-release? (I preferred to play as Kunochi myself). The soundtrack from that game has been hummed many a day in my lifetime.

Perfect! Perfect! Perfect! One of the main problems of Reloaded on the other systems is that playing solo can lead to an unsatisfying experience. But Since the Switch has 2 controllers out of the gate...

@SLIGEACH_EIRE That’ a very neat idea

Will buy. I never got very far in the original when I played it over 10 years ago.

Got this on the PS4 and it’s great. Def a challenge but great news it’s coming to switch

Love Natsume - at least back in the day - Abadox, Shatter Hand, Power Blade 1&2, SCAT, etc. This could be great with joy-cons. I'd kill for a Shatter Blade crossover though.

Sweet! So Switch has Nam1975, Wild Guns. Just need Hamster to bring Cabal to the archives and we have the trinity.

Every time i see Wild Guns I think about Wild Arms

@GrailUK Cabal? That brings back some great memories. Also makes me feel old.

@Ryu_Niiyama Oh man, all the different throw moves potential always made Ninja my favourite. But on more positive news the original NinjaWarriors has showed up on Hamster's PS4 ACA line-up so fingers crossed Taito will also show up soon on Switch.

This is awesome news! Shot straight to the top of my most anticipated games for 2018 on Switch.

@Shiryu Are those Ninja Warriors clips from the Snes version of the game? I recall playing this on the arcade and Amiga but man. The graphics in the clips you have posted look incredible.

This game is almost identical to its original SNES release. I bought it for the PS4 when it was released and it's awesome. I sold my PS4 though, so will gladly buy this game again for the Switch. Really looking forward to this one, it's super fun.

This is great news because Wild Guns is fantastic and the 4-player mode is something I would definitely use here. I'm a little concerned about the price point. It was $29.99 when it released on the PS4. Since Nintendo sold the VC version of the original for $7.99 on the Wii and Wii U, I'm hopeful for a sub $20 price tag, but we'll see.

@crackafreeze
Pump action. Yes it does 🤠

@Lroy Yep I too had this on Amiga. However the SNEsS version is a proper sequel. The only downside is that it sadly forsake the two player mode but along with Gundam Wing Endless Duel it clearly showcases why Natsume was truly on top of SNES development.

@Ryu_Niiyama @Shiryu I'm also a big fan of Ninja Warriors Again. It's near the top of my list of favorite Super Nintendo/Famicom games. Natsume did some great work in those days. I can play Ninja Warriors over and over and always have a blast. I would love to see it get a digital re-release. It deserves to be played by more people.

@Shiryu I'm gonna be adding both the original Wild Guns and the Ninja Warriors sequel you've brought to my attention to my Snes library (via a modded Wii) in the near future. Would buy both on Switch in a heartbeat.

@Dang69 Natsume is one of my favorite developers from the 8-bit and 16-bit days. They had quite a string of quality titles. I go back and play many of them regularly. I just played the Power Blade games a few times a couple of months back. Shatterhand might be my favorite of theirs.

@Lroy Ninja Warriors on SNES is not just a nice graphical upgrade, but also a significant game play upgrade too. Natsume managed to squeeze in a good bit of variety in the moveset and the game is less rigid than the original. I think it's a really fun game.

@sdelfin Dunno if you are aware of Power Blazer, but it's the original Japanese version of Power Blade and is quuuuuuite different, in art direction, different level design, etc.

Nice but cmon NOT $30 like the PS4 version jeez!!

@sdelfin Sweet, sounds great.

@Dang69 thank you for pointing that out. I'm aware of it being different, but I have not played it so I don't know how different or if it's better or not.

Would prefer an Arcade Port of Sunset Riders, but I’ll take it

Yes I was asking for this ever since it came out for the Wii VC. A Switch version on the go would be sweet. Now a version of Sunset Riders and Gunman Clive would be sweet too.

Nice!

I'm pretty excited for this. I enjoyed wild guns on the wii vc so it's awesome that it's coming to a portable system

Cool game. But I played it to death on my ps4.

@sdelfin It seems a little cheap in it's enemy placement, is my first impression of it. Haven't played much.

Very cool. Have this on SNES and ps4, will probably grab it again just to play it on the go. Great game

Looks great.

Yes please!
And on a physical cart, thank you!

@Gerald I second Sunset Riders!

Picked up on steam. This game is "brutally" difficult! I can barely make it past the first stage.

Thank you, Natsume. This game is...(puts on shades)...serious fun.

For a minute I was so excited about this until I realized I had it confused with Wild ARMS for PS1, a fantastic western RPG that I loved playing many, many years ago. Anyone remember that gem? I wish they would bring that forward with updated graphics and enhancements on a current system. Even the 3ds would be great.

I would have picked this up on PS4 if online multiplayer was included. Played this a lot on Wii/U VC, so I’m satisfied with just having that. I’ll probably skipped this on Switch too.

Holy Crap!!! Take my money right now!!!!

I hope this gets a physical release. I know the Switch is better digital for most people but I absolutely love physical games. I held off on Wonder Boy until the physical version came out and I will do the same with this game.

@lillith omg all the House of the Dead and Virtua Cop games are Awesome Sega rail shooters!! Don’t forget to throw Confidential Mission in there!! Great Dreamcast rail shooter as well!! All are so fun! 👍

@Masurao sunset riders! One of my favorite games of all time! Don’t hold your breath with Konami though 😡😡

Psst! hey Natsume- how bout a little Snes Pocky & Rocky love!!! 😊

Crazy! I was just looking at my WiiU VC folder yesterday thinking about how much I wanted WILD GUNS on my Switch... Day 1.

Amazing, amazing game, though the price was a bit steep on PS4, especially with no online multiplayer.

The PS4 version is super pricey.

Great classic! Reloaded is mostly good, but the PS4 version killed four-player mode by limited continues with no option to change. That is if I recall correctly.

This is one game that I felt would be better on switch than PS4. Glad to see it's being released. Hopefully it doesn't have the same price as the PS4 version. $19.99 would be acceptable.

@OGGamer @Spiders

Definitely agree, they're asking far too much for this game on PS4. I'm hoping it'll be a bit cheaper on Switch, but even if it isn't, I feel like lt'll be a bit more worth the money now. I'd love to play this, since I'm a fan of the original game.

Man this is getting ridiculous, if games like these keeps coming on the Switch I'll have to get a second job

Up Vote Ninja Warriors! Also give me Neo Bomberman, Rod Land, Rastan, Rainbow Islands and Night Slashers, and I'll snuggle them up next to Splatterhouse on my switch menu and be one smitten kitten.

Wonder if there's any chance of a package of ZX speccy games too, Manic miner & JSW etc. - akin to the Elite app on iOS? That would set my loins ablaze!

@Onion It's REALLY good
