@Kidfunkadelic83 Same, I somehow missed this on Gamecube so I'm super pumped to actually finally play this after years of hearing how amazing it is!

Any chance this would exist if it weren't for the breakout success of the Fallout TV show? 🤔

I ended up pre-ordering with Gamestop (in store)...yeah, I was that desperate to get my copy

Wade's Bowling Bowlarama: Featuring Knuckles is more accurate.

That said, I'm still hyped for Sonic 3 (with Shadow)

@Toastmaster I really hope they don't force it to release on Switch if that means caveats like 30fps.

Sigh...I wish Nintendo would just release Switch 2 this year instead of forcing devs to release games that struggle on Switch

@StarryCiel Loved these games as a kid...might grab this next week. Thanks for the added insight ✌️

Time to update my "Vibe n' Chill" group list..

I remember this developer specifically stating that this game would come to Nintendo's next gen system...I guess I see now why they said that (and were ultimately forced to release on Switch) 😮‍💨...hopefully they Re-release on the platform they originally wanted to (i.e. Switch 2)

I, like many others here, was actually just wondering this myself. It would be amazing if it was announced during the June Nintendo Direct.

@DogDetective They probably saw how well Shredder's Revenge and Cowabunga collection sold on Switch and went all out on releasing more TMNT games for the system.

So this is basically the "Royal" of SMTV? Such a questionable (full-priced) practice of ATLUS/SEGA...

@Sparrowhawk It mainly involves Underwater exploration; discovering new areas (caves, trenches, coral reefs etc) , new species to log/catalog, feeding fish, taking pictures and upgrading your gear and customization options. There was also a hub area above ground in the 2nd game as well as a light story.

@gamerchick_22 They most likely have to do things specifically different for the Switch and thus it's considered less of a priority when the other versions don't need that extra time/attention to develop it properly.

I would expect it to release by the end of the week...probably

@alexybubble I'm playing through some of it now and...it's actually well done DLC. It has

• New Characters
• New Stages
• New super/ultimate moves
• New storylines w/new cutscenes etc.
• New side content (patrol missions)

The DLC packs are much more than just the typical new characters.

@alexybubble I might be to blame somewhat. I recently got back into this game and bought some DLC on sale the other week. They are just raking in profit at this point (no incentive to make a Xenoverse 3)

It's very simple, Nintendo doesn't really want you to associate their games with anyone or anything other than "Nintendo" (barring a few exceptions such as their most notable directors)

@Nagi Same...I will happily get this game once it's announced for physical!

Speaking of "Zeros"...I'm still waiting for Metroid Zero Mission. Zero Mission is definitely in my top 3 Metroid games of all time.

@Not_Soos Good point about it not necessarily being "a game for kids". You definitely wouldn't see some of it's themes in a Nintendo game...

@Speedo I was personally expecting Nintendo to put out (or at least) announce something new by now...but that's just me.

This is an amazing indie game! So glad to see it finally finding its way onto Switch 🙏

It's a good game but I'll personally stick to The Witcher 3 for my medieval fantasy fix on Switch.

I somehow missed this gem during the GC days, so I'm actually excited to finally play what many consider the pinnacle of the series.

Just a friendly PSA -

The game is now available on Amazon.com

DAVE THE DIVER: Anniversary Edition - Nintendo Switch https://a.co/d/1Qdukgk

@BFahey3 "Mama Peach"..?

In all honesty I think that's a question Nintendo prefers to never answer 😂😅

@Mattock1987 I hope you're wrong...but yea, in this climate you never know.

@Mattock1987 I'm pretty sure most people are over that "issue".

Three words: Wario and Waluigi.

Make it Happen Nintendo/Illumination.

@Not_Soos We all knew TTYD and Luigi's Mansion 2 HD were coming this year though and yeah they have a ton of ports and remasters they can still release but I think most people are ready for actual new games on newer hardware.

Its nice to revisit and/or check out missed Gamecube and Wii ports but that's not going to completely drive a system in a market where it's competitors are releasing brand new cutting edge software.

This is the kind of game I definitely need a review for before even thinking about buying.

@kkslider5552000 That's because MS didn't really market this game...it's the epitome of a "Gamepass game" i.e. low budget/low market (not low game quality)

This game is great, but isn't for everyone. Please thoroughly read the review before buying this

@RiasGremory At the end of the day it's not about how big the cartridges can get (space wise), it's about how cheap the publishers are with not wanting to use those bigger sized carts and/or putting half of the game on a cart and making the consumer download the rest.

I'm most excited for Endless Ocean. Definitely one of Nintendo's most unique (and overlooked) franchises. Hopefully it runs well, esp online with 20+ other players

This is a 60fps game (due to its rhythm based gameplay). There's no way it can hit 60fps on Switch. Most newer games are seemingly struggling to hit (a smooth) 30fps on Switch as is.

@Adol-Bannings Atlus saw that it worked with P5 Royal, especially when they released it on Switch/PS5 so they figure there's a market for these re-release tactics.

You could always wait until it drops in price.

More like a Port-ner showcase...I'd give it a low 7. Grounded looks rough and no Hi-fi Rush shows that Switch is just not powerful enough to run the game. Hopefully Switch 2 rumors are correct and Nintendo finally reveals next month.

@Ryu_Niiyama I just saw. Kind of weird that it's announced for PS5 but not Switch...I guess it was too much for Switch to handle.

@ShingoTamaiX This is why I'm desperately ready for Switch 2. I'm so tired of these games coming out looking like slide shows and barely outputing @ 720p.

Sigh....Nintendo consoles will forever be cursed to use technology 4-5 years behind the curve. So this thing is going to already be grossly outdated a year after it releases. PS6 is going to make it look like a PS3 by comparison 😮‍💨

Whatever you do, PLEASE don't get it from a scalper. You'll only be rewarding their crappy practices and end up spend much more money than necessary.

You mean Paramount plus finally gave a (good) reason to sign up?

@TrixieSparkle Sorry I should have clarified, those are consumer based internal storage solutions, years after being on the market. Console manufacturers usually use newer forms of specialized internal solutions that aren't available off the shelf and can be extremely pricey.

For example SSDs recently became available to upgrade internally for PS5 and can be as expensive as $300 for a 4TB and $1,000 for an 8TB. For Nintendo, putting in a new, specialized internal HDD could be as expensive as $100-150 for 1TB. That's a lot to pass onto the consumer just for storage.

As much as I'd like to see 500GB - 1TB, Nintendo is not likely to go higher than 256GB if they want to keep the price down. Internal storage is not as cheap as external.

@HeadPirate I'd love to see a poll of how many people on Xbox played Hi-Fi Rush on Gamepass and how many of that number actually ended up buying it.

Something tells me it would be a very low percentage of people that actually bought it.

Remember when Publishers just printed more copies?

can't believe a two legged space dog is almost beating out Queen... 😏

Get Firewatch (if you're interested).

This game hasn't been on sale in 2 years.

Purah stans, your time is now. 😅

We All know TOTK was the True GOTY23...
