The 3DS version will always be best, thanks to the stereoscopic 3D. The depth in the rooms looks stunning. But I will still buy the Switch version for the collection, and to play it through again.
I got really excited, until I seen the trailer. Looks like some app store game. Obviously no passion put into this what so ever. Maybe things might improve by next year, but highly unlikely.
@Coffeemonstah exactly totally agree, it's hard to believe all of these amazing Konami games are confined to gaming history. Thank God I still have my retro kit.
God what happened to Konami, from the classic Arcade, 8,16,32 bit golden age. An incredible back catalogue of awesomeness that's basically been forgotten about. But I shouldn't be surprised with this crap industry & obsession with openworld, soulslike dross.
I have all three on the Legendary NES, amazing games my favourite is the 2nd game though. This looks nice, but would of preferred pixel artwork. The originals look so great 👍
Absolutely love SNK especially the NEOGEO. Would be great to have more SNK shmups revived like the awesome Andros dunos 2. Imagine sequels to Last resort, Alpha mission 2, Pulstar, Blazing star. Etc..
Meh looks ok, still won't ever match the quality it's trying to emulate. 16bit forever!! When it comes to the new release of Earthion on Megadrive next year that's going to have incredible pixel art fidelity.
To be honest I play more 8,16,32 bit games than current stuff. Have a PS5 & Switch. Play Switch more than PS5. Specs don't interest me anymore probably because most of the games produced are the same crap, mainly open world dross!! Devs unfortunately don't give a monkeys about the older demographic anymore. There are so many games from the 80s 90s golden era that could be re imagined for today's tech. But devs refuse to do so because its all about the money & pandering to the usual crowd!! Least Nintendo do there own thing & let Sony & microsoft slug it out on tech wars.
Again love these collectors editions. But I'm happy with my original copies of Rondo & castlevania iv, on my Duo & Snes. Personally the best two vania's in my opinion. Yes I have Sotn on playstation but still prefer the original formula.
Still prefer the gorgeous pixel art from, Castle of illusion, World of illusion, Magical quest, Mickey Mania. On Megadrive & Snes:) this title looks lifeless compared.
Well let's hope for Outrun, Super Hang on, Galaxy force, reboots then. Also being as Sega own Technosoft games let's have some new Thunderforce games. With such a rich back catalogue of amazing arcade games the list is long.
Personally a new Starfox or Pilot wings would be even better. I'm not keen on open world games but Pilot wings could be amazing done that way. Some amazing missions could be created.
In my opinion the motion controls were great when used properly. DK returns, Mario Galaxy, Metroid, RE4, HOTD, Deadspace, Metroid other M all amazing. The trouble was most devs used it just for the sake of it. Resulting in pointless waggle controls.

Re: The Famicom Just Won An Award At The Tokyo Game Awards 2023
And deservedly so the Famicom/Nes is Legendary. Personally though the 16 bit era should be awarded as well. Simply the best console gen ever !!!

Re: Random: Nintendo Advises Against Blowing Into Your Switch Cartridge Slots
And this is why I always cover up my consoles with dust protection when not using. Leaving out to the elements isn't good. Dust is a big no no.
Re: Random: Sakurai Explains Why True Twin-Stick Controls Weren't Possible For Kid Icarus: Uprising
Amazing 3D in this game. Controls not so much.
Re: Takaya Imamura: F-Zero Hasn't Been Revived Because Mario Kart Is Nintendo's "Most Popular Racing Game"
@HamKnight yes I was thinking about it last week. Playing Zelda Botw thinking how a Pilot wings would look great using that engine.

Re: Feature: The One Thing Wii Did Much Better Than Switch

Re: Metroid Prime 4 Developer Retro Studios Is Hiring New Talent
Retro studios haven't released anything for years. Can't believe we haven't seen anything they have been working on.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
Can't believe this vote, the Japanese boxart is much better. I love both, but the Jap one wins for me.
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About Ubisoft's Metroidvania "Inspired" Prince Of Persia Platformer?

Re: Review: The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - An Absolute Marvel, But Is It Better Than BOTW?
Looks amazing, but really couldn't get into botw. Haven't got the time to invest in these games either. Personally I find open world games boring.
