@Davestator I know the feeling mate lol , i have a retro freak console. So i can savestate still struggle with this one. Im hoping for Rtype delta HD boosted for Xmas, no doubt another struggle. Personally I would like these devs to put an easier mode on these games, for old farts like me lol
@Davestator yes i know the feeling, shmups are my favourite genre. But this game kills me. I can never get past the level where the screen scrolls backwards, drives me mad lol.
@WheresWaveRace oh yes I forgot lol, that's why the reviews for T2 suck. Im surprised its not roguelike, Metroidvania, then it would get an extra point or more lol. The negatives are a joke though, the things they downplay are part of the games designs. Its a joyful arcade experience, made for gamers who love the 16bit 32bit eras.
@ozwally I get it, for me personally I don't have the time or the inclination to play these openworld games. They bore me anyway. I prefer linear, T2 is well up my street. Also im playing through Metroid beyond at the moment.
Still sounds brilliant & will be getting soon as. But I wish openworld games would just F**k off. This damn obsession with it in the industry is beyond a joke!!
@sixrings its nice if its there, but frame rates & resolutions aren't the be all & end all of gaming. Some of the best games ever aren't in HD & certainly not 60fps.
Deserved, its funny how some say it isn't, its just switch 1 but a bit more. Nintendo probably played it safe for sure. But if they really innovate they are criticised again lol.
Was going to buy for Switch 2 but obviously hasn't been optimised for the new system. So decided to get PS5 version instead. Loved the demo so still buying.
Its amazing have on Steam deck, preordered Switch physical version. Also I have a naughty bootleg Megadrive cartridge, which runs great on original tech. Hopefully next year will buy the actual Megadrive version.
So can he explain to us 3DS owners how shutting down the Eshop is a good thing. Can't buy anything again!! Can only download existing stuff you purchased. Just think the amount of games that are practically gone forever. Same goes for Wii.
@Eririichi agreed, a scalpers dream, this will end up being just as expensive as the real thing. Also can't believe you need a online membership to purchase !!
Its a joke you have to have an online membership to purchase. Nintendo management is taking the piss nowadays. Greed is obviously more important than there fanbase.
Great news!! Have the Wii versions & the 3D all stars on Switch. Will get this for the collection to play on Switch 2. Can't wait to play through Galaxy 2.

@jsty3105 maybe your right mate.
Re: Nintendo Is "Acting To Protect The Industry" With Switch 2 Game Key Cards, Says Ex-Capcom Composer
@jsty3105 I'm on about new games, I can't buy anything now for 3DS or Wi can I. That's no preservation.
Re: Nintendo Is "Acting To Protect The Industry" With Switch 2 Game Key Cards, Says Ex-Capcom Composer
So can he explain to us 3DS owners how shutting down the Eshop is a good thing. Can't buy anything again!! Can only download existing stuff you purchased. Just think the amount of games that are practically gone forever. Same goes for Wii.
Re: ICYMI: If You Want To Play Virtual Boy Classics, You'll Need To Buy One Of Nintendo's Accessories

Re: ICYMI: If You Want To Play Virtual Boy Classics, You'll Need To Buy One Of Nintendo's Accessories

Re: UK Charts: Mario Kart World Takes The Lead While Cronos Sees Weak Sales On Switch 2
Key cards, that's the problem, I want this game, & Little nightmares 3. But they are both key cards on Switch 2. So will probably buy on PS5.
