You have no idea how much excitement I have for this game! When I started collecting for my old consoles again (after many years of no games left), my first title was NBA Jam for the SNES. I LOVE this style of game, and even though we have to wait roughly a week for online play, I don't mind because it'll all be worth it to me! #ClosetNBAfan
I'd ask for a working online portion that doesn't suck the life out of me before you guys consider a console release. We all know how much people love early access on consoles.
@Dazza The problem is that our minds understand words as 'groups of letters', so even though it's not spelled correctly, it has the right letters and the brain usually whizzes by it. I honestly had a double-take on it, myself.
Those new characters all look fantastic, but am I the only one who wants to see Wario cross over? After all, Wario Blast for the Gameboy featured Bomberman~ It'd be like it's come full circle!
You guys genuinely think they'd have 30 games on the SNES Mini (if it exists)? Knowing the way Nintendo practices it's business, it's more likely to have 20 games on it, comparing the price of NES Virtual Console games to those of SNES Virtual Console ones. They don't wanna "lose" too much money. If this is a real thing, then I sincerely hope they go the less greedy route of 30, as that's a solid number.
@Shiryu I know that feeling. I go into most of the games I play on my YouTube channel blind, and I'm sure I'd have died a lot too. It just LOOKS like so many games I've played, so it's like a pseudo confidence. Too bad it wasn't finished.
@Shiryu Sorry man! It's just painful to watch all those deaths. Though the dripping acid junk was pretty stupid IMHO. Such a tiny thing to try and avoid. Do you have like, a repro-cart of this?
BTW if you wanna throw a barb or two at me, you can always watch my Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril playthrough! I cannot tell you how many times I've died (and raged) and died s'more.
After watching the video, I think I would have LOVED this game! Granted, the guy playing was making me cringe a little with his constant deaths. The level with a giant Not-Vision in the background was totally sick, too! SOMEONE go finish this game!
Oh, so this feature makes Evil Ryu and Violent Ken totally pointless! They were just palette swaps to begin with! Seriously guys, you're milking this thing to death.
If we were talking "Available day 1" and didn't account for any eShop games, then I would consider it a soft launch. I'd daresay, if we take into account that Breath of the Wild is in-fact a multi-platform game (See: Wii U) and don't count it as something unique for launch, then the launch is downright weak.
But it's a good thing we don't count those things in those ways. I'd give Launch Day Switch a 6.5/10 for everything announced right now, and I'm sure there'll be a few extra things available day 1 to bump that up to at least a 7. It's based on speculation and everything announced, btw.

@Dazza seems to be a typo in the article; "... Nintendo itslef keeps pumping out content:"

Re: Random: Nintendo Officially States Ganondorf's Last Name
I was gunna say that this isn't news, but I guess having it 100% confirmed is good? In any case, already knew it.

Re: Overwatch Director "Loving" Nintendo Switch But Admits Porting Game Would Be A Challenge
I'd love to play Overwatch anywhere in the world. It kind of fits with the theme of the game, too!
Also, peculiar wording with "Getting OW on the switch IS very challenging"... Hope that means what I think it does~

Re: There's No 'Concrete Answer' for GameCube on the Switch Virtual Console, But There's Hope
Super Mario Sunshine wouldn't be terribly easy to pull off with digital triggers. I'd think several racing games would be in the same boat.

It also stands for Ridiculous, because if it was true what the Konami employee was saying, it'd be Super Bomberman RRR.
