If the system is made and boxed and just waiting to go out the door, can they still develop more for it or are they not actually at the “ready to go” level?
The most accurate sounding rumor to me was that they had already manufactured millions of them so that nobody has issues finding them when they finally release next year.
Please yes. I can’t stand the controls of the new DK side scrollers. I’d love a new game in the SNES vein. Or even an HD remaster if possible of 1-3. The DKC snes trilogy is some of my fav games ever.
Of all the choices to remaster, this is what the picked. 🤦♂️. Even though we were kids, my brother and I couldn’t beat that mushroom jumping level. In Psone and the DC! I’m almost curious just to take it on again, supposing the remaster is actually playable….
I think they should have released a sequel with the new engine first. Then surprise dropped an already finished remake with this updated engine soon thereafter. I loved the game but there’s no way I’m buying this until it’s like 10-15$.
@Banjo- I gotta admit, as Nintendo gamer since 91ish, I do have a void in my heart for never taking on DK64. And I’m sure when it gets added to the switch I’m just gonna at least give it a few hours energy. Will I see it all the way through… I don’t know. But I have to try it a little bit.
@-wc- Honestly I’m cool with it as long as they actually play well. I’ve had enough different character play with the turtles game so less thinking, more putty smashing works for me. 😂🤣
I’d be curious to follow a timeline where Nintendo and Sony did see the partnership through. Does sega partner with Phillips? Does Phillips become “Sony”? Is it now just Nintendo and Sony vs sega? Interesting to consider.
@cosmograph Thank you so much for the detailed response! I will have to think about it but it sounds like a pretty decent exercise game. I like to mix up my DDP Yoga with ring fit, so adding this into the routine may still be a nice change of pace.
@cosmograph What did you hear about the game? I love home workouts and ring fit in particular I’ve been keeping up with for 4 years. I’m curious about this one now.
I don’t care what it costs or what is released with it, now that they confirmed BC they’ve got my money. I’m just waiting for the reveal and confirmation on how old games run on it to decide what I work on between now and then. Lol
I wonder if it would be more profitable to just develop for switch 2 than make their own handheld. Personally I’d love to get their Xbox live or whatever it’s called on the switch 2 as a subscription service.
@Mario_maniac Lol. That sounds amazing! I just bought it and will play soon. I jumped on YouTube to see if anyone had a play through and found one. I skipped through it like every 10-15 min just to peep at a few seconds at a time (even that little bit I kinda wish I didn’t so I could be surprised). Looked very fun but I stopped to avoid spoilers of everything. Lol.
I will say that person seemed to have got through the game though so maybe the part you’re stuck in you can check their vid to see if it’s truly broken or if you’re just missing something.
@Mario_maniac please let us know what you think. I just got the Halloween and evil dead games so I want to double check the quality of Rocky before jumping in to more platformers. Lol.
Excellent news. I still wish we got rare replay updated with some classic Nintendo games, but filling the Nintendo online up with the games works too. Hopefully next is conker. 🤞. I’d also love to see the 8 & 16 bit consoles get some more graphic display choices, namely a smooth option. I hacked my snes mini to use it where it converts the scan line one to remove the lines and it was perfect.
How does the easy mode change things? Unlimited hints? Ammo differences? Answers to puzzles? No puzzles? Abundance of health? I’ll probably play on easy depending on what it features so I’d be curious to know.
This game needs a lot of work to be enjoyable in the modern gaming world (in my opinion). I don’t think we ever got through that forest level where you jump on mushrooms because the controls were so bad. Or maybe we did but that level was so bad it’s all I remember 🤦♂️

Re: Poll: Okay, It's Time To Ask The Obvious - Will We Get Donkey Kong 64 On NSO?
DK 94, Diddy racing, and conker please. DK64 I’ve never had an interest in. My younger brother played it and it just seemed like such a slog.

Re: Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind Is No Longer Delayed For Switch
Is this the one with poor previews saying everyone plays the same? Either way, I’ll still probably get it if it’s not too expensive.

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Library With Another Classic
Nice. I hope they do the GBC version of 3. And then on to DK 64 and conkers bad fur day 🤞
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Library With Another Classic
Nice pick. Though 2 is probably the best of the GB games. And didn’t they do an official colorized version of 3?

@LadyCharlie So they play differently? I’ve only ever played the original GB one and I think one on the DS that had a tower or something.
