Isn't it $30, not $25 as stated in the review? I still pre-ordered it digitally and will have fun playing with my 5yo and introducing her to all these games

The all important question: can you invert both camera axis?

Local multiplayer might be a reason to get this digitally, though I kinda wish they had included more games and remix challenges from NES Remix 1 and 2 in here as a bonus since those were also fun.

This is awesome, they should make a trackball controller for Switch to play this on...also Marble Madness as it was meant to be played

Feel like the change in graphics style makes the game look worse. It used to have really high res (for the time) pixel art isometric levels, and these flat-shaded 3D models just look simpler and change it to be very cartoony...guess we'll see how it progresses.

This is another title I've been keeping an eye out for, sadly not on the eshop yet to wishlist :-

DAY ONE, this is such a great idea, and I loved the Link's Awakening graphics style, so I'm glad they're making a new 2D Zelda where you actually, finally, play as Princess Zelda!

The first Game Boy I ever used, which was my cousin's, had Tetris in it of course, and I was hooked! It's the one game I've bought and played on literally every single computer and console I've ever owned.

@mazz Someone is working on a de-make for Play.date:

This is another title I've had a tab open to the Nintendo eshop search page hoping one day a listing shows up so I can wishlist it and not lose track of it before release...would be nice if anything announced, even without a release date, at least got a landing page so we could save/wishlist it for later...

Shame I can't wishlist this already...

Nintendo should just hire him and finish this project, maybe even match the graphics style to the fantastic Link's Awakening remake/engine

In case anyone else was wondering, I can confirm, there are settings for inverting X and Y camera axis under accessibility. This is a day-one buy for me mostly to play along with my daughter who wishes I wasn't allergic to irl cats.

Wouldn't it have been better to just combine NES Remix 1 and 2 into one single deluxe title instead of this?

"Switch’s meager racing offerings"

There are so many racing games on Switch! Some really excellent ones you don't mention at all include Horizon Chase Turbo (1 and 2) and the launch title of Fast RMX.

This is one game I've had a tab open to for ages hoping they'll finally put up an eshop page so I can wishlist it and know when it comes out...

I have fond memories of renting Extreme-G as a kid and playing it one weekend with my cousin...but I've never even heard of Iggy's Reckin' Balls, looking forward to playing both this week!

That's very smart, and right now, 25% off with code OVERSTOCK!

Am I the only diver who is bothered by the gauges and octopus just dangling behind the diver and not in any way hooked to the front of their BC?

Hope that means options for INVERTING both X and Y axis on the camera controls...please

As a SCUBA diver, it really bothers me that both the octopus and pressure gauge are just dragging/dangling behind the diver and not in any way hooked on their BC. Also, who still uses an octopus when there are things like ScubaPro's Air2?

There is NO way this is accurate, esp with "Agent 47" being number 3? No way is that more iconic than many other options below that...and of course Mario is way more recognizable than Lara Croft, and always has been, even back in 1996!

Not about to install an IHOP app and go to IHOP just for a costume, but that's a random promotion

Maybe this is how the Switch 2 dock will work, and be slightly nicer when it comes to cable management...not that it's a big deal, you can route the cables either out the side or the top now...

Sweet, now if only they'd add in some of the old themes from past cups...

Can you invert both X and Y camera axis?

Of all the things, what I really wish the Switch OS had was a way to trigger an "UPDATE ALL" process that would go through and download updates for EVERYTHING that had an available update. This could even just be a function added to the eshop app I guess, but it's annoying that it only really auto-updates the top 10 most recent games, and beyond that you'd have to go through and manually check/update things to pull the new version.

Well, it's "out for delivery" so I should get it today

Just finally popped this into my Switch to get excited for the new movie (Frozen Empire) and am so upset that they let you invert the Y-axis for both camera and proton pack controls, but NOT the x-axis! This is really bothering me, who wants to only invert Y and not also X? I wish there was the option because I keep spinning around and turning in the wrong directions. Sadly even the built in Switch button mapping options do not let you manually invert stick axis

No motion controls is unfortunate, but really, the thing I miss when using pretty much ANY third party Switch controller is the lack of HD Rumble! Why didn't Nintendo license that out to anyone??!

Wish I could wishlist this on the eshop to remember it for when it releases...

Shame they couldn't get proper 60fps support like the M2 ports of OutRun on 3DS which also featured 3D visuals and other screen sizes

No kidding...also building in hard bosses at the END of each stage with no way to bypass them made it frustrating. I got to the first stage of world 3 and couldn't beat the boss sequence, so I gave up and moved onto Mario Wonder...never to go back.

Nice, then I can buy it again and have all 3 on my Switch...totally worth it

"Wishlist Now!" cept it's still NOT listed on the eshop... I've had a tab open with the search since I first read about this game, and reload it in hopes the listing will appear and I can finally wishlist it for later. It would really benefit all game developers if they'd get the listings on the eshop ahead of even having a release date for wishlist purposes.

Yay, finally a NEW Monkey Ball game, can't wait!

Can you re-map the controls? I feel like A for jump is gonna mess with my brain

Ugh, not a delay if everyone just invented the initial rumor...

This looks great, pretty amusing that it's a real NES game, but then they did an HD-remaster on it too...not sure which version I'd want to play now.

Hard to top the Link's Awakening remake on Switch

Okay, deal, I'll cancel my Amazon preorder and change it to Best Buy to get the cute acrylic stand, like they gave out with Sonic Superstars. I miss Best Buy giving out plushies with each new Disney movie release though...and soon I guess I'll miss them selling physical media at all.

I imagine it'll be OLED and hopefully 1080p at least, and that rumors are just that.

And it's not even April 1st...

Nope, no, see, I subscribe to Nintendo Online with the Expansion, and it's so annoying how the first time you launch each of the emulation apps it checks online for your subscription, limiting where and when you can play them if you haven't in the past week! It's nice we get all these games included, but the online requirements get to be annoying, especially on a portable console I often play on my commutes without any internet. Same goes for the Mario Kart DLC, which I'm tempted to buy outright just so my Mario Kart 8 doesn't also have to dial in and check every week before it launches. It's much better to own the game, especially physically, and have it work fully offline. Then I can share it with friends or family too.

Bring back Charles Martinet's Mario in Real Time, which somehow was a better demo than this...even if it was from like 1991

Yay, I've been wanting to pickup We Love Katamari REROLL + Royal Reverie Special Edition! Also Jackbox 10 might be fun before the holidays...

Looks better than it did on PS4/360 though, so you also have to compare with how this game has always looked and ran in the past... dropped frames might be the engine too

Maybe boss fights should be separate stages AFTER each level instead of tacked on the end of the level, so we could skip them or at least, just retry them without having to go through the entire level. Really, that's when I stopped playing, I got stuck on maybe the second boss in the game, tried for 2 days, and then moved onto Mario Wonder and haven't gone back...

I've almost never used the YouTube or Hulu apps on Switch now, but I do see the appeal of having decent, modern streaming apps on there, especially when I take the Switch with me on a trip and hook it up to a hotel/airbnb TV.

As I say at every new cup announcement, are they ever going to add previous themes into the in-app store for those of us who missed a few previous ones?
