Cheesy as hell. Absolute skip.

@the_beaver No he is not trolling. Production cost does not justify making a Switch port when they have to turn a 4k game to a 720p game with choppy framerate which bring more criticism thatn praise. Even now you are not getting most of the AAA tittles like Fallout, RDR2 etc. System specs is very important for AAA developers. They even skipped 100 million install base of Wii.

Release Diablo 2 or Starcraft 1 on Switch and harvest minerals.

Getting the most complete version of a several years old port? Well, that’s a privilege.

Interesting collection, but not my type. I’m not a fan of pre 90s games.

PS1 was and is never my thing. No PS1 games make it to my all time favorites. Although I’m very critical of Nintendo policies, most of my all time favorites are Nintendo game (and Genesis games). Somthing was off about PS1 and the whole generation, although two of my all time favorites are fron N64: Ogre battle 64 and Ocarina of Time.

Switch players always have to wait.

They knew how to sell this mediocre title to Switch owners. Include some minor Nintendo related characters, then Switch owners buy it day one. Switch owners are on autopilot when it comes to any Nintendo releted things.
Switch owners=zombies
Any Nintendo related characters and content= raw meat.

Oh God! I’ve waited for this! Thank you Capcom!

Actually every current hardware available in recent 2 years is more powerful than Switch. Do something else.

When you have a lot of time and little talent, you will invent something like this.

One of the most terrible consoles of all time and a nightmare for Nintendo. Wii U was the only Nintendo console that never tempt me to buy it. It was the end of Nintendo’s disastrous “gimmick age”.

“That thing was way way way ahead of its time”
Which aspect of it was way ahead? Its “non-working” aspect?

@Moms-Meowth yea you’re right. But this exclusivity deals are part of gaming market and we cannot do anything about it. Back in 90s Nintendo did the same. The nature of market force you to own multiple platforms unless you don’t have enough money. I’m not fine with it, but that’s the nature of things in this market.

Solution: just get a PS4.

I’m more interested in a Descent: Free Space remake.

Just let it go. A big No! To roguelikes and pixel art and anything like that.

Konmai, it seems you totally forget about Contra. Give us more Contra.

Just like many other indies, a total waste of resources.

Let’s be real! Just give us a port or remaster of the first two. We don’t rely on flames burning your heart.

“Add support to exit to title” OMG! I’m sold!

Lol.

@FoxyGlen well you should apply for the job. This article of yours is like a music to their ears.

@Knuckles-Fajita I don’t think people ever asked for a Netflix style virtual console which block the usage of games behind a paywall. All they wanted was a universal account system that remove the necessity of repurchasing the titles. Just like the PSN account that when you bought a PS1 classic on PS3 you could redownload it on your PS Vita.

Complaining force Nintendo to improve the offers and service. So don’t quit complaining my friends. Personally I’m not unhappy with the service, but there is a lot of room for improvements. Adding other platforms (SNES etc) is a valid demand and we most push Nintendo towards it.

Friends only? Well I don’t call that “online play” in the full sense of the term. Thanks Nintendo! You are brilliant!

Well I don’t call it a “new era”. They are just trying to keep up with the standards that established by Microsoft and Sony 10 years ago.

Not interested. PS1 games aged badly. And more importantly I have no nostalgia for Sony’s first console. The only “mini” that I was interested in was SNES Mini. Although if this one becomes hackable maybe I give it a shot.

I’m glad that I’ve waited for Switch review.

@jobvd I agree. But unfortunately licensing issues prevented them. Personally I’m in love with AVP.

I speak for myself: NES games especially this preliminary list (Soccer! And Tennis! etc.) is not persuasive at all. I wait for Nintendo to add better games and also other platforms. If not, no 20$ from me.

Digital only is enough for me. Most of the time I regretted paying for these usless collectors editions.

The first one is better than the second one. And this make me skeptical of the potential third one!

@Aven You’re right. Graphic is not everything. But sometimes graphics-especially when they downgraded in a port- hinder the enjoyment of a certain game. This is the case of Wasteland 2 on Switch for me. Maybe you feel differently and I don’t have anything against it, because these things are matter of taste.

The screenshots by themselves act as a review for me. Interested in this game? Get the PC or PS4 version. There is no need for disappointment, you don’t have to play everything on Switch.

TBH 20$ is a reasonable price and I think at some point I jump in anyway. I skipped PS Plus because 60$ is too high and I’m in no way interested in what sony offers. Add titles other than NES (SNES or 64 or even DS) and Give us a regular monthly plan for releasing them, and I’m in.

It is not very important for me because I don’t care about this cloud thing. But I want to thank Nintendo Life for the fair and critical coverage of this news.

Busy playing that amazing DQXI. But I shall get this game when I finished with DQ.

Congratulations! We get the worst version of the worst FF game ever!

great game, truly a magnificent game.

It is good to hear that they at least kept the sound effecs and music. I know that this port doesn’t feel “retro” but I have good feelings about it. And this comes out from a die hard SOR fan.

@Exidy Then you don't know what flash games look like.

@Cobalt well, I don’t call it “ugly”, but I agree that they could use a more suitable art direction.

This game is one of the greatest TBS titles that I have played in recent years. I hope they support it with DLC. They can expand the game with additional islands and additional difficulty and units and enemy types.

@Damo Well, Good for him. But this doesn’t mean that he doesn’t listen to the fanboy inside him, and more importantly, that this site lacks the praise-based “attitude” I have mentioned (let me remind you that you gave MHGU here “9/10” by another writer). Let me ask you a counterfactual question: suppose that one of your editors miraculously overcame his fanboy inside and decided to write an article with this title: “Why I prefer MHW to MHGU?” Are you willing to publish that article here or you tell him “go and publish that in our sister site because that’s where a comparison supposed to be against Nintendo as a platform”?

@Gene I love my Nintendo Switch and that’s why I’m an active member here. But The question is how can I help Switch to get better. I always thought that by adopting a critical stance towards my beloved console I can help it to get better. Unfortunately most of these so called “fan sites” and so called “fans” think that by offering unconditional praise or by acting as a self-employed marketer they can help their beloved console to get better. I think these sites should be the voice of consumers and not the loud speakers for the companies. Unfortunately these site (including Nintendo Life) are not critical enough. At least I’m not coming here to hear unconditional praises of the fans for their god, but I’m here to form a social platform for sending our critical messages to the Nintendo. Concerning the praise, I can always praise them with spending money on their products.

You prefer it to World because it is a Product for Nintendo and this is a Nintendo fan site.

They arrived late. Last year was very lucrative for indie publishers for lack of games and the enthusiasm of Switch owners almost guaranteed good sale for every title on Switch; and of course Nintendo also promote every game back in the day because of lack of titles. But right now, especially in indie scene, we get a lot of games every week, and this is not possible for Nintendo to concern itself with all of them. Especially with a 2 years old port of an mediocre indie title that only relies on riding on the waves on nostalgia and nothing more.

Screenshots are absolutely horrible! Huge graphical downgrade!

The only good Crash game is Crash Team Racing. The main series was nothing special. I’m not Mario fan, but 3D Mario series are waaaaay better than this series.
