Azikira

Why is Eirika not on the Top 10? She's the main character from one of the best games in the series! Ugh.

Where is my Eirika?! >:C

Like I mentioned before I'm excited for the system itself, but everyone publishing games on it are making me sick. The games are ludicrously overpriced, to a point where it's BEGGING to have the system fail. I understand charging a fair price for your product, but it's not fair to charge 4x as much for a game that already has been out for years just because you ported it to a new system. That's a load of bullsnobbery. You're shooting the Switch in the foot before it even leaves the gate.

@Ichi-Tan I'd hate to sound redundant at this point, but there's nothing really exciting (for me) in the Launch window besides Zelda, so seeing full on Dragon Quest support will instantly make me happier about getting the system Day 1.

@Ichi-Tan I'm hoping that Dragon Quest MMO does come over here in the US (since I don't know a lick of Japanese... Sadness.). I've been looking forward to it ever since I found out about it, and I almost got it on my Japanese 2DS but I heard it was plagued with performance issues because the game streaming is too much for the system to handle.

God those Amiibo look magnificent. It's like a lovesong to the NES/Famicom.

@Ichi-Tan Well it IS region-free, so even if they never come over (please please pleaaaaase bring them all over!) we can just import. Gotta brush up on that Japanese.

The problem I have with this game is (well, besides the fact that I can't play with the stiff controls very well) they're selling it as a game with new characters, but the characters are just pallete swaps of existing characters, which I'm sure took very little actual effort to do.

I would have been much more impressed if they took the time to create two NEW characters for the game, anyone from future Street Fighter games (perhaps a new Street Fighter V character, and one from a previous game) and condensed them down to the platform. Imagine characters like Hakan, F.A.N.G., Alex, Rashid, or any of the other memorable characters from future games being brought back to change up the game. I'd be much more eager to support it!

Please for the love of God just bring over ALL the Dragon Quest games and I'll be happy! I know I can import now, but me no speaky the Japanese. ;w;

Anyone else super jealous of that guy with the fabulous condition Gameboy Micro Famicom Edition? I scoured the internet for one in good condition and never seemed to have any luck.

Aww, that Bokoblin is cuuuute!~

My local Gamestop just got a bunch in today, surprisingly.

And yet no Dragon Warrior? This is no true top 10 list, naive!

There's actually a way to make the game stutter less. In the options menu, you can set the speed. Setting it to high will effectively double the frame-rate, and makes the game much more playable.
I've reached out to Capcom to see if they support bluetooth controllers, but so far no response. Either way, for TWO BUCKS it's not the worst. Do you guys even REMEMBER that auto-running Mega Man X garbage that came out on iPhones? I also do like that they have different difficulty levels here.

They aren't TOTAL garbage, but it's an odd choice for touch-screen for sure. That, and the framerate issue DOES stink, but it's still a good price.

Oh my god, EU you got so many better offers then us US dwellers! I mean, none of the offers are ever amazing, but comparatively we got trash.

@PlywoodStick Well that's impressive, since I haven't actually PLAYED that one since 2001 (15 years ago, wow). It's good to see my gaming senses are as sharp as ever!

I remember this game scared the crap out of me, especially with that whole "Bloody Puppets" intro sequence.

@Pod I could see the Dig Dug game BECOMING good, but what was there is not good. I'm not even kidding when I say I can't express my love enough for Dig Dug, and this tech demo just hurts me so badly because I CAN see an idea there. The above-ground sections looked really bad, like a shovelware Wii title cough Anubis II cough and just make no sense to me, and the transitions from above to underground were just so jagged and weird. I did love that super fat Fygar, and the cannon that shoots enemies at you, but it could be handled so much better.
THAT'S IT, TIME TO MAKE MY OWN DIG DUG GAME.

That Wii Batman looks kind of terrible, which makes me wish it was actually released. I am coming to terms with my masochistic gaming tendencies.

Something seems just a little bit off about the Devil May Cry game. I know it's a port of the original, but something there isn't right and rubs me the wrong way.

LOL when those lasers just froze mid-air in the Tie Fighter one! KYLO REN CONFIRMED. I'd actually think this one would be awesome on Wii, all things considered!

OH GOD, WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO MY BELOVED DIG DUG?! I'm SO glad that catastrophe didn't come out! I love Dig Dug, it's my absolute favorite arcade game, but this thing looks horrible! The perspective is totally wonky, the underground tunnels appear in a layer closer to the screen than the actual DIRT (which makes SOOOOOO much sense. Not.), the harpoon looks more like an eel, and it can travel SO far through the dirt. In the original, you could only travel through very thin dirt, but that one has like no limit. And those segment transitions, BLEUGH!! That game looks like trash. I'll stick with my Dig Dug Arrangement, thank you.

At this point, I don't believe Treasurenauts will come out. It seems to just keep being put on the backburner at every turn.

Prove me wrong man, please prove me wrong.

I'd literally only want it for the asthetics, since it doesn't have the best game ever made... Tecmo Bowl!

Hercules does what Nintendercules.

Bubble Man is my favorite boss in 2, and tied for favorite overall Mega Man boss with Cut Man!

Translation : "Apple gave us a LOOOOOT of money. Like, a whole lot of it!"

"Ki ki ki kiah!"

I could've sworn the third ball came after releasing Chain Chomp...

I always wished they would have brought Vaati to this game, but the cast was fairly good either way.

The new Nintendo Rewards program hasn't won over anyone in any region, I think. It's just bad, compared to what used to be a great service.

I love me some Bug-Car-Mon

I'd come back for Scizor.

XD Oh my god it looks soooo bad I love it! Day 1 plz

I'd be very upset if the camera was the only new addition, no offense. The hype has been built up too much for me already.

Oh god.
What did you make me do?
$109 in amiibo later...

I definitely love the use of colors here.

omg that made me cry like, omg...

This is one of the saddest days I've seen here on NintendoLife.

I used to make games all using pre-existing graphics and sounds, without express written permission by the creators, but in that same vein I never actually sold any of them and they were all practice for me. I understand that by selling games, a lot of legal issues come into play. The fact of the matter is, even though the article clearly repeats using terms like "perfectly legal", it still feels like an attack piece. There was clearly nothing good that would come from this article, the way it was written.

NL, I'd highly suggest either rewriting this article so it's not targeting ONE person, or removing it entirely, because at this point it's complete backlash and could even be considered harassment.

@BornInNorway81 I'm glad I wasn't the one who had to point that out this time. I feel like I pick on the journalists sometimes but it comes from good intentions.

You guys need to stop showing me things I didn't know I needed! D:

Do these themes have custom music, or are they like those boring Nintendo Badge Arcade ones that don't?

The developers are really nice and clearly passionate about their project! I hope everything goes well and the game is well received!

I do quite like that Star Fox design.

I still have that glorious N64 Cartridge <3

I actually just bought Battle Kid: Fortress of Peril from this site and I was so sad to see it didn't work on the Retron 5, so I had to buy a Retro-Duo console just to play it. It's the Mario (Mascot) edition though so at least it'll be an interesting conversation piece, along with my R-Zone. I'd love to buy this thing but like a lot of people are saying, $185 is quite a lot for a new-aged NES but to be fair there's a lot of quality going into this thing and I'm sure it's worth every penny for NES enthusiasts!

I tried to download this the first day it was live, but the net was swamped and none of the download links were working. Now it looks like it's too late...

I was really excited for the launch, and I wasn't expecting to like the Blast Ball mode (which I kind of don't) but it's nice to get a feel for the game. Funny enough, I think it works better WITHOUT the Pro Controller add-on. Blast Ball however I never expected to be good, with skilled players easily stuck in a constant deadlock. Hopefully adding actual enemies will liven things up a bit.

That will never fit my man-sized wrists D;

Just please don't get rid of the Wii Shop Channel... So many games I still need to buy, like Zombies Ate My Neighbors!! ;w;

whispers Just make a game that isn't pants, guys.

We're just holding out for that Waluigi Amiibo, Nintendo.

Hah, I still have my Mass Attack copy.

Data East huh? Ohhh we're gunna have one heck of a time!
