I'm not really someone who is a big fan of social/romance sims (even though I know my PFP makes it look like I should love them), but if the fanbase wants it bad enough, they'll probably do it.
@Edd-O There's no way in hell Konami spends the money to have older SFC Goemon games translated, and they're not going to pay the fan translators what they want for the rights to those. Not to mention the GBC ones that haven't even been fan-translated yet...
Plus, then there's going to be the firestorm over that particular NPC in Ganbare Goemon 3...
I want it, but I'll never get it, because I no longer trust Play-Asia, and my only other option is to overpay on eBay to get it from a Japanese seller.
That said, If they were going to do a Switch version (which they did), it should have had its own dedicated team so more time could have been put into it, rather than stretching it out so that it would have to be hastily downported from the PS5 version.
Also, I'm guessing that the Switch versions of MGS2 and 3 were probably ported from the Vita version, so anyone talking about a "better emulator", that's not happening, if that's the case.

@saanaito It's incredibly depressing to feel like the only member of the community that DOESN'T have those talents. -.-;
Re: It Looks Like Guilty Gear Strive Is Coming To Switch
@LadyCharlie Ironically, despite the flag in my PFP, I'm not much of a Brisket fan.
I was always more about Ky, because I have a weakness for lightning-based characters.
Re: Upcoming Emulation Handheld Rocks A Stunning Optional GameCube Theme
I just STARTED getting use out of my 3+ and now they're already on the 5?
Geez.

Re: Surprise Sequel 'Gimmick! 2' Bounces Towards Release Next Month
Is it made by the same people who made the EXAct Mix version for the EXA Arcadia?
Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of The Borderlands Movie Are In
They didn't even try to do the actors' makeup heavy and shaded to try to make them look cel-shaded.
Even cosplayers do that; come on, Hollywood.

Re: Review: Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown Deluxe Edition (Switch) - Returns For Another Pass With A Top-Flight Port
@SpeedRunRocks It's not Strange. Bandai/Namco does this all the time.
Klonoa, and Naruto Ninja Storm 4, are two previous examples.

And eventually, Taito's other umbrella game, Spica Adventure, is coming out, too.
Re: 'Tales Of Kenzara: Zau' Director Addresses "Constant Targeted Harassment"
@Lunatic002 Solidarity is an effective way to push for sales.
If one doesn't want to be seen as a bigot, buy the product. That's all it takes.

@OwenGamer22 Breadtubers and their fans.
No, I cannot go into further detail.
Re: Review: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Switch) - Still The King Of Mario RPGs
@ottoecamn Doesn't matter. 11/10 just for Vivian owning all the Chuds.
Re: Review: Toaplan Arcade Garage: Kyukyoku Tiger-Heli (Switch) - Two Historic Shmups Archived By Port Masters M2
@NeonPizza Search for either "Kyukyoku" or "TigerHeli" (one word) instead.
Re: Review: Toaplan Arcade Garage: Kyukyoku Tiger-Heli (Switch) - Two Historic Shmups Archived By Port Masters M2
I am more than willing to pay whatever they want just to have that wonderful PC-Engine port of Kyuukyoku Tiger on my Switch.
Re: Back To The Future, He-Man And, Er, Hot Fuzz Collide On Switch In 'Funko Fusion'
OK, now put the Sidney Crosby one in it and I'll consider it.
I still won't buy it, but I'll give it like 6 seconds of consideration.
Re: Bayonetta Origins Director Empathises With Paper Mario Dev, Suggests Reasons For 30FPS
If there weren't timing-based mechanics with specific frame inputs, then it wouldn't matter.
But there are, so it does.
Re: Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Patch Updates Are Already Rolling Out
@Captain_Toad Sounds like somebody doesn't like that the localizers called a Chud a Chud.
Re: Lara Croft's Pinup Posters Go Missing In Tomb Raider I-III Remastered
@OorWullie Yes, but these days, the busybodies are on the Right Side of History (which, as always, is the Left Side of History), battling the Chuds.
Re: Discord Reportedly Removing Servers And Creator Accounts For Switch Emulators
@Bobb It's just Praxis.
Re: Nightdive Is Remastering One Of The Most Insane FPS Games From The '90s
@GrailUK There's some of that, but there's also on-foot FPS levels.
However, the PS2 game "Motor Mayhem", which is just a vehicle arena game, was salvaged from a planned and cancelled sequel.
Re: Nightdive Is Remastering One Of The Most Insane FPS Games From The '90s
@GrailUK Speaking of Accolade, it would be nice to see someone remaster Redline.
Re: Fatal Fury: City Of The Wolves Looks Slick As Heck In New Character Trailer
@AlexanderDaniels LE GASP!
(Actually, that design doesn't do much for me, either.)
Re: Balatro Surpasses 500,000 Sales In First 10 Days
It won't, but I almost want it to win GOTY anyway just to frustrate the "But there's no characters! There's no story!" types.
Re: Reaction: Nintendo's Switch Emulator Fallout Is Shocking Only Because It Took This Long
Playing TotK on your PC 2 weeks before release day may not be Preservation, but it certainly is Praxis.
Re: Head To Outer Space In The New Free Update For Vampire Survivors
Wasn't remotely interested in the Amogus content, but maybe this will be more interesting.

@Gradius It was inspired by Heiankyo Alien.
Re: Video: Bandai Namco Reveals New Gameplay Footage Of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot DLC 6

I don't want this game to grow in size so large that I won't have enough room for it anymore.
Re: Disco Elysium Dev ZA/UM Reportedly Cancels Project And Is Planning Layoffs
Well, that doesn't sound like it matches up with their general world view...
Re: Hacker Gary Bowser Discusses Post-Jail Life And Chipping Away At Nintendo's $14m

It will be called "Jeff".
Re: Konami Is Bringing Back Rocket Knight Adventures And Felix The Cat

Re: Action RPG With 'Overwhelmingly Positive' Reception Launches On Switch This Week
It's a pretty well-made game overall, the only thing I don't really like is the needing expendable light sources for every major gameplay area.

It's Ebenezer Bad.
Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1
@carlos82 They aren't running the PS2 code.
That said, If they were going to do a Switch version (which they did), it should have had its own dedicated team so more time could have been put into it, rather than stretching it out so that it would have to be hastily downported from the PS5 version.
Re: SNES Racer Series Top Gear Is Being Revived As A Switch Collection In 2024
If the Visco collection is any indication, this is gonna be wrapped in Unity, just a warning for everyone who's boycotting Unity.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1
Also, I'm guessing that the Switch versions of MGS2 and 3 were probably ported from the Vita version, so anyone talking about a "better emulator", that's not happening, if that's the case.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1
Take at least 2 points off each score for the Switch's framerate handicap.

I think I'd definitely prefer to use the original soundtrack, as I generally prefer synth to violins.
