I promise everybody that not porting the first two will be fine.
The games come from an era when HD was still mind blowing and 720p was the high standard. Even then the characters in the first one were criticised for looking like action figures. It was also criticised for not having enough heroes in the roster. Activision/Raven developed more heroes in response as DLC but I think they were only made available to the Xbox 360 version. My point is I'm not sure if a port would have them all. It also had a super generic story. The second one was an improvement, and the story was an adapted version of Civil War. But the story continuity is not something to worry about with this series.
I'm really looking forward to this. Unjust think this is a series where we needn't worry about rehashing past games to enjoy this one.
Overwatch is now one of my top 5 games of all time (so I'm biased) but I think it would be great for Switch. The graphics can be scaled to suit, just make sure it's at 60FPS. I do think gyro controls need to make it in. Some characters (Widowmaker, McCree, etc.) just don't do as well on console, buy gyro would fix that.
Yes, the game is over 2 years old, but there has been a steady stream of new content and a sizeable competitive community that's not going away anytime soon. Gyro controls and crossplay with PC would give the community plenty of reason to keep playing. I thought Nintendo wanted more esport games, anyway...
@Nukuleardawg I noticed this too. The thing is, I don't think characters on the banner have been moved around before on prior reveals. Makes me think it's one of the best fakes we've had.
Konami should really be taking some hints from Capcom. We wouldn't be seeing that beat 'em ups collection If the Street Fighter and Mega Man collections didn't sell.
Very glad to see. Thank you Bethesda. Thank you Panic Button.
I know 2018 has seemed slow for the Switch, but between what Panic Button, NIS, Bethesda, Square, and even Capcom are doing things are a lot better than they have been.
@Caryslan I watched ttailer again...helicopter move gives him some vertical recovery. I don't think he's as fast as DK on the ground, though. More mobile than I was thinking a minute ago.
@Caryslan He does have a helicopter backpack for a recovery, which would be DKC3. The move with his stomach looked like a Fire Emblem style counter to me.
I'm trying to figure out the fighting style...I'm guessing the boxing gloves hits as hard as DK does, but he has a projectile game, too. He didn't seem near as mobile as DK, either.
@Drommajin the game has a lot of of 4th wall humor, making fun of other RPG's and fantasy games in general. It's almost a parody. The clothes and character comments are kind of a running gag throughout the game.
I dunno. Glad to hear they're happy with sales. Kind of bothers me a casual game like Carnival Games is getting greenlighted instead of the other options.
@NEStalgia I think the Switch is doing a lot better as to covering the market so far...may not be getting every game but third party games have been an improvement. Biggest issue I see is that it's not really the latest AAA games and more AAA from a couple of years ago. But they're not novelty games, either. Nintendo doesn't seem keen to follow up on 1-2 Switch, at least.

Worth every penny.
Re: Rumour: DLC Fighter For Smash Bros. Ultimate Leaked On Japanese Textboard
I was pondering Dragon Quest getting a character before this. We'll see but I would rather get Geno.
Re: Two Puyo Puyo Games Are Being Added To The Sega AGES Line
Makes me want to play Kirby's Avalanche.

Re: NES And SNES Classic Consoles Won't Be Restocked After Holidays, "Once They Sell Out, They’re Gone"
This is expected. I just wish they would say what the long -term plan really is.
Re: Japanese Charts: Smash Bros. Ultimate Has Already Outsold Pokémon And Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
Smash performance is mind blowing, but look at the whole chart! Switch is dominating and STILL getting some backup from the 3DS.
Re: Suda51 Teases "Huge Announcement" To Be Shown In Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes Presentation
I really don't think Suda would be announcing Smash DLC. More like DLC for this game. Port of No More Heroes for Switch would be great, though.
Re: Hands On: What We Learned From Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Near-Final Preview Build
Enjoyed reading this. I wish someone could put out a guide for the new characters. I get the feeling Ridley will play different than I thought.
Re: Nintendo Download: 15th November (North America)
Definitely want an @alex review of the YouTube game.

Re: YouTube Has Officially Arrived On Nintendo Switch
WAHOO!!!!! IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!!!
All jokes aside, very glad to see. I still think it should've been there from the start.
Re: Rumour: YouTube Could Be Arriving As Soon As Next Week On Nintendo Switch
It's about time...
Re: Unidentified Item Spotted In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Clip
Hoping that Direct comes soon, earlier than Nov. 8 even. There will be no peace on the internet until it does.
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th October (North America)
@Roam85 yes. Other dirty tricks, too from what I understand.
Re: Rumour: Unannounced Characters For Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Have Possibly Been Leaked
@link3710 Guessing you mean November...wish it would come sooner.
Re: Rumour: Unannounced Characters For Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Have Possibly Been Leaked
@link3710 hmmm...maybe it is real. Where is that Direct????!!!!!

@Nukuleardawg I noticed this too. The thing is, I don't think characters on the banner have been moved around before on prior reveals. Makes me think it's one of the best fakes we've had.
Re: Soapbox: I'm Causing The Slow Death Of Gaming Magazines, And It Hurts
@Dualmask Amen to that. Nintendo Power (especially the older ones) had a lot of heart that I never saw in the others.
Re: Review: Starlink: Battle For Atlas - A Shining Example Of Open World Star Fox Done Right
I get the fun of the toys, but digital is what's feasible to me...full set of toys is very expensive.
Re: Konami Confirms There Are "Absolutely No Plans" To Bring Castlevania Requiem To Other Systems
Konami should really be taking some hints from Capcom. We wouldn't be seeing that beat 'em ups collection If the Street Fighter and Mega Man collections didn't sell.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 29th)
I've been in the midst of a campaign to focus and complete Breath of the Wild. But also thinking about ARMS and Rocket League...
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Has Exceeded Expectations Following Strong Sales Outside Of Japan
@aznable definitely get Octopath or XC2 before the other two.
Re: It Sucks To Say It, But Castlevania Requiem Isn't Coming To Switch
I'll just be waiting for Bloodstained to come out, then.
Re: Sakurai Warns Smash Bros. Fans That New Character Reveals Will Slow Down From Now On
Kind of expected. Still hoping Geno, Ken, Rex, Black Knight get announced.
Re: Video: Here's Your First Look At Star Fox's Wolf In Starlink: Battle For Atlas
Really looking for ward to this one.
Re: Nintendo Partners With Asmodee Digital To Bring Best-Selling Tabletop Games To Switch
I've never played any of these, but was surprised to see these yesterday and will look into it more.
Re: Nintendo Reveals Upcoming NES Game Releases For Switch Online Service
It looks mor promosing than I initially thought. It's not just first party games, either.
Re: Animal Crossing's Isabelle Joins The Fight In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Hats off to Nintendo on their trailers lately...they are trolling masters.

Glad to finally see a Nintendo release.
Re: Kenichiro Tsukuda Explains How Daemon X Machina Will Be The Best Mech Game
I wish this got more exposure at E3.
Re: A Potential Wii U Splatoon Predecessor Was Scrapped Due To Leaked Information
It's a shame. I loved the Conduit games on the Wii and was just glad that a company tried to make a quality 3rd party game for the Wii.
Re: Tomb Raider Won’t Be Making The Switch Anytime Soon, According To Eidos Montreal
Meanwhile, id Software is debating whether Rage 2 could go to Switch...
Re: DOOM Eternal Will Raise Hell On Nintendo Switch
Very glad to see. Thank you Bethesda. Thank you Panic Button.
I know 2018 has seemed slow for the Switch, but between what Panic Button, NIS, Bethesda, Square, and even Capcom are doing things are a lot better than they have been.
Re: Yes, King K. Rool Really Is Coming To Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
@Caryslan I watched ttailer again...helicopter move gives him some vertical recovery. I don't think he's as fast as DK on the ground, though. More mobile than I was thinking a minute ago.

@Caryslan He does have a helicopter backpack for a recovery, which would be DKC3. The move with his stomach looked like a Fire Emblem style counter to me.

Re: Rumour: Change To Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Medley Points To New Fighter
Simon Belmont would be a good announcement. I'm thinking this will mostly be a game mode discussion, though.
Re: Review: Code Of Princess EX (Switch)
@Drommajin the game has a lot of of 4th wall humor, making fun of other RPG's and fantasy games in general. It's almost a parody. The clothes and character comments are kind of a running gag throughout the game.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th July (North America)
I would highly recommend Code of Princess.
Re: Random: Reggie Fils-Aimé Stars In Seattle Police Department Lip-Sync Music Video
That was good.
Re: Take-Two Says Its Switch Releases Have Been "Successful", More Games To Come
I dunno. Glad to hear they're happy with sales. Kind of bothers me a casual game like Carnival Games is getting greenlighted instead of the other options.

Interested.
Re: Octopath Traveler Director Shares The Three Key Elements Behind The Game's Success
I haven't got to play real far in yet, but definitely agree on the graphics and the freedom. Just glad to see a Switch game shock Square like it did.
Re: Panic Button Says It Has "Tons" Of Switch Projects Coming Up
I'm thinking Doom Eternal to release alongside other versions.
Re: Feature: This Unreleased SNES Super FX Racer Could Be Getting A Physical Rebirth
Hope it gets released.
Re: Barack Fu Is A Free Bonus Game For Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn Physical Owners
Between this and finding out the new Overwatch character is a hamster in a wrecking ball mech I've been rofl the last couple days.
Re: Barack Fu Is A Free Bonus Game For Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn Physical Owners
Hoo boy...
Re: Norse Action Adventure Fimbul Will Bring Comic Book-Style Narrative To Switch Later This Year
Great games for Switch seem to just come out of the blue anymore. That makes me happy.
Re: Feature: 20 Years After The Release Of Banjo-Kazooie, We Speak To The Guys Who Made It

I really wish Microsoft and Nintendo could work out a deal to get Rare Replay to Switch.
