I'd be interested in this as it seems like a perfect game to play handheld. Hope the Switch 2 version gets an update or something to improve the graphics.
This collection seems amazing. I think now is the point where I will buy it if there is an edition with all of the DLC as well. I hope it's not the end and they add even more. More Lynx and Jaguar games would be super cool to have.
I was so excited for this game collection. But the input lag I've seen demonstrated by multiple trustworthy creators, such as Max Dood, leaves me to wait for a patch in the future. The documentary, and game selection do look good, so I hope it gets fixed. Fighting games in particular I can't stand input lag in.
Excited to play these finally. Speaking of file sizes, anyone know of any good 2tb cards that work on Switch 2? Been holding back on getting a 1tb until the bigger cards came out.
@JohnnyMind you're in for such a treat going forward; probably my second-favourite series after Zelda. I highly recommend the DS versions of 5 and 6, and DQ11 in general after you finish those ones
Very well deserved. He always seems so nice and passionate in interviews. Hopefully it means more video game designers will receive such honours in the future.
I'm happy to pay £4 for an upgrade to maybe my most played game of all time. And the free update is massive, so that makes me even more agreeable to the upgrade.
I wanted this before even New Horizons came out. Feels special to be able to play classic games in my virtual world. Hopefully they add a lot of the games. I know in the OG Animal Crossing it was one game per NES you got, so it looks like it's the same here.
Great article! Love a reminder of anniversaries like this. I'll ask people: Is this a good Fatal Frame to start with or should I go for another first time?
We don't know when that quote was taken tbf. Could have been a year and a half ago. We don't know if the book was held back to release around Metroid Prime 4, just to play devil's advocate.
They're taking away multiple areas and side areas of the game, so I've really lost interest in this. I like a really long rpg so id rather it be an option, than taken out completely.
Never tried Klonoa, but this looks like a great place to start. Still hoping for WonderSwan NSO in the future from Bandai Namco, so we can get the other portable game on Switch 2 too (along with many other games for that system).
Offline wireless play is great for game preservation. This feels like a game that could do really well being included with the expansion pack in the future.
Cyberpunk 2077 runs perfectly on a physical cart. The speed problem is exaggerated as hell so developers don't have to spend as much making physical carts.
With War of the Lions not here, it's probably not gonna be a purchase from me, as I already have the PSP version. I'll maybe pick it up if it goes on sale or they add it as DLC.
I wonder if 7 somehow relates to 12, and that's why they doing it next. 4-6 look so good on DS though, that those versions could just be released again honestly, at some point.
Hopefully sales figures like this convince more developers not to use game key cards. Seems Rune Factory and this both sold well, and they were both full physicals.

Re: Square Enix Aims To Automate 70% Of QA With Generative AI By 2027

Re: Atlus To Address Persona 3 Reload's Switch 2 Frame Rate Hiccups In "Future Patches"

Re: Switch 2's First Warhammer 40,000 Game Isn't The One You Might Expect
Although I'd love Space Marine 2 to come as well, I'm more excited about this. Heard it's baso Baldur's Gate in Warhammer 40k.
