It’s amazing how small these port sizes are getting. Can’t wait to pick it up!

Really digging that HORI stand, it’ll be nice to use wired controllers on the Lite

Neat idea, but would prefer a slimmer case without the joycon slots (I very rarely use extra controllers when traveling).

Maybe a Switch Lite version for just the console/battery, and like a pouch for games and headphones?

Played this on mobile a long time ago and really enjoyed it. I agree with most of the review, but there is a market for people who’ve beaten all the classic MMs and want something new. That’s why Metagal was talked about for a while.

$10 is too steep, though. This is a good game to pick up on sale.

@StevenG Isn't the Tegra X2 a minimal improvement to the X1?

Having a more powerful Switch Pro would ruin everything imo. For PS4 Pro/XBOX it just means two configurations for base/pro models, but with the Switch it would mean four. Porting games for everything would probably be a pain for devs. Then if games are exclusive to the Pro, you’re alienating the existing 30+ million install base AND the supposed cheaper model. Save the big upgrade for the next console.

@sanderev Yeah I know, I'm just saying it's not for reasons within the company. It's what needs to be done legally.

Glad Nintendo at least waited til it was complete to take the project down.

I always see these takedowns as Nintendo trying to please their stakeholders, rather than the company having a want to do it.

Looks cute! I’d be willing to look past the similarities if the game is fun.

Are they only for regular iPhone models and not the Plus ones? That’s a bummer if they are

@3DCloudsJonny Oh wow, had no idea Switch carts were such that extensive of a process. At the end of the day, you all are patching the performance and that’s what matters!

If some of these issues were only going to take 2-3 weeks to iron out, they probably should’ve delayed the game..

This would be awesome if the slate was a phone case - but this just sounds cumbersome to use

Well.. this is not the comment section I was expecting

It makes zero sense to focus a Direct on a game releasing seven months from now. I’m guessing spring still.

Wow, those are....thick

I feel like there weren’t enough heavy hitters in the summer. We had Fortnite, Mario Tennis Aces, and Octopath, but only one of those likely sold consoles. Hopefully 2019 has a more consistent release schedule.

Has anyone here played Dragon: Marked for Death? I’m curious how it is but there’s not many reviews out for it.

This is awesome - been wanting to pick this up but $50 is a bit steep for only 20 songs. Maybe on a sale.

Makes sense, the 3DS is on its way out. If this helps it release sooner on other consoles, it’s fine with me.

I have one and the difference is night and day. It’s basically emulation quality. The price is steep but it’s very worth it imo.

My guess is it’s related to higher quality assets? Since the game runs 1080p native now

@MaciejKuczynski It was in the trailer..

@Silly_G Quality yes, though quantity is debatable.. also Carnival Games is $20 cheaper

@Kfmush Yeah I didn’t think about that, haha. I suppose another option is a Bluetooth transmitter using the headphone jack. Those aren’t too expensive https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074QLB1Y7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_zqq6zbVFS2TNR

Can you connect a Bluetooth headset using a USB adapter?

@Jeff1pnt3 @Sligeach Exactly, I was about to post these! How can Spikey Walls (A Flappy Bird clone with terrible music and no sound effects - Which was also a parody game, I might add) get a 4/10 here, but Meme Run gets a 1/10?

I don't think the person in this review really tried to understand the game. There is actually a lot of depth to the mechanics.

• You can't jump unless both of your feet are over the platform, which requires precise jumping. The game requires SKILL.
• The ground shaking is only a distraction to the player and in no way ever makes it unfair to see where you're going.
• Collecting memes in the game causes distractions to the player, but also increases your score multiplier. It's a game of risk and reward.

Yes, the game is a "joke" with obnoxious memes and all, but shouldn't a 1/10 belong to broken games? Meme Run is by all means a functional and somewhat addicting platformer. There are many worse games on the eShop.

Fantastic review, guys! Really glad they released this on eShop, the cart still goes for about $70 ;-;

I bought the game at launch as well, and I completely agree with this review. Geiblinger's accent was also hard to understand, unfortunately.

I'll be sure to wait to buy until your reviews next time

For consumers, it's great. But for Nintendo, it's a horrible idea. If they started doing flash sales like these sometimes, people will hold off buying the game in anticipation of one. And on top of that, consumers who bought the game at 5x the price would feel betrayed.

I know there's the whole digital vs. physical argument too, but I'm pretty sure most people would go digital if they could get their game at a fraction of the cost.

Probably going to wait until a discount. This is almost identical to the WiiWare Dr.Mario (Except for Operation L), and I already have Brain Age.

In other news, the sky is blue today.

Just out of curiosity, does it have the GBA special features?

I'll be honest, I'm kind of upset with what Nicalis did.

First off, I bought the DSi version for $10, and that was good fun. (Actually bought it twice because I traded in my DSi for a 3DS)
Then, I got Cave Story 3D, which I did like, but spent $40 for a pretty much inferior version.
And NOW this version comes out. I've already spent $60 on Cave Story, why can't this be a free DSi update? Or least cheaper for people who have that version?

Just bought the game, and I'm instantly hooked. Yes, it may look generic and there's no 3D, but the platforming is spot-on and incredibly fun. Imagine Megaman mixed with Chronos Twins and a Halo setting.

I'd actually give it a 9

YES! And even though I'll be getting these for free, I'll still buy the PC version to support RK.

Just entered! Let's just say it involves KFC lol.

Pokedex 3D Pro's actually a good deal. The book at stores can go for $15-20, so an interactive one on my 3DS is way better for the same price.

Meh, it's a 9/10 from me. Just my opinion though

@Miroku ....what? When has Sakurai released a game that a step backwards in ANY series he's made?

@BudrSbastig SEEMS LEGIT

Neat idea, but:

-There was a $20 fee.
-The form was extremely intricate and took tons of time.
-You had to be 18.
-You had to be a fan of Renegade Kid.

I knew this wouldn't work from the beginning. Sad, because it seems like a neat alternative to Kickstarters.

That covers tax here in Maryland, lol. I'll probably buy digital for the 100 coins!

Glad they fixed up some stuff! I'll be getting this one.

Sweet! I'll be picking up both, I want to play Challenge mode all the way through

Liking what I see so far I'm just concerned about DS games, though - Are they going to be as blurry as before?

No offense guys, but this is like the fifth rumored price article I've seen. This is obviously estimated and completely wrong, so why post it?

Eh, looks fun. The graphics are still pretty bad though.

$300. Nintendo Land packed in. Cables, a WiiU pro controller, and one Gamepad.

Anything less and I'm out.
