Not disappointed, but I think I'd rather wait until there's a physical version, whenever that happens.

Sonic & Knuckles Collection for the PC was my first exposure to these specific games, so these new renditions of these tracks actually hit a nostalgic cord with me. The only Mega Drive original tracks I'll really miss is both from Ice Cap Zone.

Regardless of the experience with the games, I feel that 2019-2021 was one of the most trying periods to be a Pokémon fan or engage with the community.

This could be great, but I'll take it with a saltshaker's worth of... what was it called? Yes, skepticism.

This smells like desperation.

They have SO MUCH material for this year's presentation.

Some of you sound so miserable.
Just a reminder that BD/SP only sold more than Legends Arceus - and not even 20% more, and this difference can still decrease - because of the holidays timing and probably the fact that it's accounting for both versions.

At that price, it was obviously a scam. But sadly, it does call some attention to the fact that videogames are still very much luxury items in many parts of the world, mostly due to publishers being unwilling/unable to adjust their prices in those markets to make up for the exchange rate and any local taxes.

Not counting certain third-party titles with potential licensing issues, I think the most noteworthy NES games missing are Startropics and its sequel.

Now that's a Kusoge with a capital K.

@Liam_Doolan Thank you. If it turns out he isn't involved, I really suggest making a new story rather than updating this one, and with a clear title, to make sure anyone interested will notice and read. I have no horse in this race regarding Inafune's credibility, but I really dislike misaimed hate bandwagons on principle.

There’s a follow-up to this. It might not be Inafune, but rather an imitator of his style using his name for attention (makes sense) and money (not anymore).

@wiiware Touhou is one of those things where knowing the setting and characters is nice/useful, but in no way necessary to enjoy the experience.

@BranJ0 @BulkSlash It's worth pointing out that this game (and its sequel) aren't metroidvanias - rather, they follow the stage-by-stage gameplay structure of classic Castlevania.

Hey, that kid is one of the characters in the Namco X Capcom/Project X Zone series.

I don't know if you have this information, but it would be nice to know what teams were used by the winners.

On a related note, there's this podcast I follow that commented about this leak, and they assumed that (paraphrased) "it will just be as garbage as Nintendo's other Switch emulators" - completely forgetting or not caring that only the N64 emulator had issues, and that those have been mostly fixed since launch. It irks me off to no end.

@PokemonDMG For the Megaman games, likely savestates at the first/last Wily stages, with all the weapons and upgrades acquired.

@Kiz3000 Probably a pair of games related to your avatar that are kind of a big deal.

@inenai It's unsettling because it implies those mushroom people are in fact mammals.

It's kind of surprising how well this is outperforming Star Allies.

Undertale may already be on the list, but Deltarune deserves a spot too. Specially Chapter 2.

I have to update my Switch, but from the top of my mind I plan to create folders for my backlog, for games I might/may play again, and for games I won't have a problem deleting if I ever need to free up space.

This is where it's important to make the distinction between "legal" and "official" perfectly clear.

I'm just glad you don't need to complete every single research task to see/get all the things that matter.

I was under the impression that DKC 3 was already on SNES Online.

The lack of a analog stick (let alone two) is the most confusing part. There's too little for it to be a proper next gen controller, but there's too much for it to be something for Game Boy/GBA games.
...Maybe it's for Virtual Boy games?

I first picked Charmander because I liked Charizard more than the other two. Then Totodile for the exact same reason. Before Gen 3 was even a thing, I suspected the same would happen with the grass starter, and it did. Then came Gen 4 and I liked all starters, so I picked Chimchar since I spent the longest without picking a fire starter. And from this point on, I kept with the fire > water > grass sequence, only slightly regretting my decision on rare occasions. Looking forward to starting with Sprigatito in Gen 9.

@Lagster_YT Speaking of which, it's weird that nobody has talked about the ongoing deals on the eshop related to the celebration (Luigi's Mansion 3 finally got a discount after too long since the last time).

Remember when people thought a boss sprite in Sonic Mania kind of looked like an Eggman-like little girl, thus leading to the advent of his nephew Omelette (I think that was her name)?

I fully respect your decision about not wanting to see the ending, even if it kind of really weirds me out. That's like putting down a book at the penultimate chapter or turning off a movie 15 minutes before the credits, but to each their own.

Hopefully they will include a few more songs that haven't been orchestrated yet.

@KillerBOB I really hope you're joking. Like, the NSO isn't that great, but that's a terrible comparison.

Some of these are particularly unhinged.

That's overall a positive thing. But let's not forget that current events certainly dissuade a lot of people from gathering onto large crowds...

Sigh This only reinforces my commitment to waiting until mid-February to receive the physical version I sort-of preordered. This seems to be a real special game.

I feel that more people here should be following the example of Serge_G and express their dissatisfaction in a way that doesn't sound like a hyperbolic tantrum-throwing. It makes it harder to take your opinion seriously.

@Serge_G I see. I don't feel the same way regarding how visuals affect the experience, but thank you for explaining your point of view.

@Serge_G You sound genuine, so it may be worth asking... how important is the visual presentation to you? Does it actually matter to the point where it's more important than the rest of the package? If it's not on par with what you believe it should be, do you feel cheated, or don't feel like you want to reward what you consider to be bad practices? I really just want to understand the perspective.

If it has a single-player mode like the one in Diddy Kong Racing, then it will have my full attention.

@ShePenny Don't worry, I'm never responding to your comments after this. Nor will I ever see them again. Goodbye.

@The_BAAD_Man Define "souless". Edit: Nevermind.

@Gamer_Zeus *graphics that meet my excessive standards with a sprawling open world to explore.
Sorry, I'm just tired of people deciding that a art style they don't like is objectively inferior.

No offense to those remakes, but I really, really hope Legends Arceus will be able to at least match those numbers.

@ModdedInkling That sounds like hyperbolic fearmongering.

It would be nice to know if there are any issues with input lag. That could be the difference in whether or not action commands work properly.

I'd be ok with a smaller roster. My main concern would be reaching a decent balance of returning and new characters.

I feel that it might be too soon. Hopefully it will be something else for now.

Earlier today I tried to have ranked matches in Pokémon Shield, but all I got was an error message regarding the server. This might be the reason.
