@garfreek here here, i actually wish Luigis Mansion 2 remaster was being released then. I just started a new playthrough of LM3 for the spooky season and have this one on my radar for holidays

@Anti-Matter Not sure what you feel sorry about, especially if your interest level started low. I'm 100% getting the game and skipping the direct / all new details as possible, so no problem.

I grew up with westerns so Gun and Red dead revolver on the xbox were huge for me as a teen. Even my mom (rip) would watch me play those some, really liking the settings n all. Never upgraded my xbox til the XS so havent gotten around to RDR, i'll scoop it at some point with all the fuss

In terms of recommendations for oldies - maybe try the Naked Spur with James Stewart n Janet Leigh. I wasnt blown away by it but definitely solid and well shot

@lacaras4 perhaps, and maybe a trilogy package to boot?

@-wc-
Mmm wario has said a lot more at least in the nintendo directs when introducing games. I havent played new warioware(s) so cant say how much in-game voicing is involved.

For mario, idk anything about AI but I'm not sure about the recordings either. Certain mainline games could take a slightly different direction with how much mario talks. I am absolutely NOT talking about full on in depth dialogues or whatever, but even in certain cut scenes (I think luigis mansion 3 had some) they may need mario to say something, whether that be the same minimal expressions or add a bit more. And future sports games, Mario's gotta yell 'touch-a-down!' at some point

Nothing crazy engaging since I'll be out most of it - l'll finish Choplifter 2 for GB, which looks awesome on the Analogue pocket. Other than that, maybe just some Castlevania or something

@Deviant-Dork maybe a separate type of review category for ports would be good. Like I kinda get it - if Casablanca was re-released in a new blu ray then I'm sure the review would focus on the package as a whole, cause like what could you say about the movie that hasnt been said before? Quality and bang for buck would be involved. It's a fine line and think the reviewer did well in acknowledging the price here.

But overall I agree - a 10/10 game speaks for itself. I'd pay good money for even older games

@GrailUK thank you, this is a good take. Many others are civil in expressing their disappointment and make good points in their arguments but some seem to be bent out of shape big time about it when, as you said, they probably werent the target audience in the first place

Grimaces birthday on the GBC could be a dark horse...

No but my goty is re4 remake, I hadnt played it since the gamecube days so I was all about it. Of course I havent/wont play many of the others, including totk, so my opinion doesnt go very far

Are these top 10 switch titles or top 10 titles in japan but they're all switch? That couldnt be, could it?

@SoapMonki I hear ya, it's crazy the craving to play a game after so many years. I felt the 'growing up' thing too and I now realize that like some games you don't get over, even after you beat them to the ground. A good game can stick with or open itself back up to you decades down the road, so I'm more careful with selling off stuff anymore

I had some rough ones to lose/sell after being whisked away from the us after college. Chibi Robo, Castlevania 4 (w/box), few more SNES titles. No regrets necessarily, just makes me all the more thankful the Switch has covered most that I've lost in some form. Although I do miss a couple GB carts I never recuperated, like golden sun

No suikoden remaster super secret shadow drop? Darn

@electrolite77 let me elaborate. ive seen it where someone wanted to purchase a $40 digital edition of a game because they were sick of getting up to change the cart out. They can spend their $ how they want, I dont have a problem with that.

But if that same person wants to hop on a pedestal about corporate greed and are up in arms about $50 for a game, then that's when I think the mirror comes into play and i draw a line in my patience. That's why I said "sometimes" and "some people", because i dont have a hard philosophy on it

@GrailUK a lot of times (not always) I'm confused on why double or triple dipping on a game is a thing/not considered a waste of money itself. I musta been raised differently, but unless a copy of a game I have is either ruined or on a console that's obsolete in my house, then I have no need to get it again unless its remastered to a great degree. Even then I may not care, I mean I unironically play gameboy 'demakes' of old SNES games for fun. Obviously this concerns costs but mostly for how I approach my consumption of gaming.

Idk, it just seems like some ppl could look in the mirror about how they overall participate in this orgy of consumption we call society. Me though? I'm just grumpy about some comments, so maybe a bucket of ice water on the head and a tall glass of STFU would do me right

@OldManHermit I kinda felt that way, but then I wondered 'where are the monsters?' It doesnt have to be packed with em like the Adventure Island cover, but anything woulda been better imo

NA is iconic, cant blame ppl for voting it, nostalgia or not. And the japanese version has its faults in my eyes

@eltomo totally missed your comment, that's where my head is at

Pilotwings, Wave Racer, and Mario just as a throwback to N64 launch

@SBandy1 my math shows 30,073,509 using the total numbers from the chart, so I guess it's a typo

@Rayquaza2510 I agree with this, the switch library is so robust they would have to really blow me away, whether in new games or hardware. Idgaf about backwards compatibility cause I dont need a new machine for the same games I've been playing for 30 years. Who knows, maybe theyll take a stab at VR, virtual boy 2 perhaps?

@Olliemar28 can I ask why backwards compatibility is relevant here?

The visuals of this one are great, I'm a sucker for GBC aesthetics anyway. I actually gave up on my only playthrough recently because I was caught up in other games, but it really is fun for a Zelda GB game and I cant wait to jump in 100% soon

A friend recommended village to me recently, but I might just go for it on the xbox. I tried the cloud demo on switch months ago and it ran pretty good. If it had been like 20 I could maybe bend, but 30/40 just wasnt in my interest for a cloud version

In one week Pikmin has outsold FF16 overall, am I reading that correctly?

Looks pretty decent actually. Would be cool to aim up n down to get the head/knee shots

@-wc- I cant argue that. Obviously I was into other fun shenanergans and it didnt necessarily affect gameplay, so you got a point. I cant imagine pikmin needing extensive guides but appreciate these here.

Funny side story, my first playthrough of Metroid Zero Mission I missed so many items that I actually got stuck at a point where I couldnt travel back and remedy. I had to start a new game. I was an adult and feel like a guide wouldnt be enough for that level of stupidity

@-we respectfully disagree- my first playthrough of stardew valley i was caught up in other stuff that I wasn't aware until it was too late to place a certain veggie at the town center, meaning I had to wait a whole year before I could complete the task. It was all right there in front of me (aka well designed) but a guide would have benefited (even though idgaf)

Shout out to the Dog Shaman from Shadowrun on SNES. I think there was another shapeshifting dog/human at one of the clubs too. What a bizarre game to play as a young'n, great times

Powerwash Sim devs must feel squeaky clean

@WaveBoy I'm not one that subscribes to more content=better game, in any genre. I dont think mk8 does anything wrong, per se, but theres nothing that's ever blown me away. The music is kinda cookie cutter, I guess everything looks clean but I've never played more than a couple races at a time. Compare that to mario kart snes/64 with a fraction of racers/tracks and for some reason I'm hooked for years, maybe some kinda undefinable charm for me

Megaman X2, im liking it like i thought i would. I'm having the craziest deja vu despite never playing it (I've only done X1 a million times). Busy time of year so if any other games they won't be too engaging, have a good weekend all.

@somnambulance I think Moon Escape 2021 was recently ported to switch, maybe others. I personally like playing gb games on the GB/Analogue devices much more than on switch, so they have a customer in me, but I see what you're saying

@BLD "If you're not happy with the rankings, don't forget that this list is entirely based on your ratings, so the rankings may change over time. So if you think something deserves to be higher, click on the star below next to the game you want to rate and give it a score between 1 and 10."

I'll go with Turbo as well just because I think the music was best there, but it's really a toss up. Tournament mode on New challengers was fun and I don't mind slowdown on World Warrior. Just light em all up

Put an ungodly amount of time into the street fighter 30th ann collection, although online has wound down quite a bit by now.

Funny about the castlevania advance collection is I've only speedrun Dracula x so far. I get that Rondo is superior in a lot of aspects and X wasnt a step forward back in '95, but I always thought it's a perfectly fine addition and one of my favorites. It's like an enhanced CV1 (in my terrible opinion)

@Boston_J a beefed-out Battle Mode wouldn't have gone to waste, even 1 track per dlc wave or like you mentioned, other options. A pity

@Res462 ahhh cool, thanks. I'll probably pick up all these new courses closer to the holidays when I'm in the MK mode, gonna feel like a whole new game

Did they ever add new Battle courses in any of these waves? Might be strange but I play that mode most of all

Sweet breakdown. Nitpicky but I hope the overworld map will be a knockout from the little bit shown. Some mario maps are simply iconic (like World) and some a little whatever (SMBU). A solid effort could do more wonders for the game and wont go unappreciated

@Clammy
$20 base game

• $10 Switch portability tax
• $10 HD upgrade
• $10 Nintendo attorney/general counsel fee
• $10 a drink for Miyamoto

That's pretty tempting. I wonder if its release date would allow it to get in on black Friday/cyber Monday sales? Cant even remember how much in general Ninty gets in on those

Boo-tiful indeed, I've only ever played (and loved) #3

@Olliemar28 thank you! That all makes sense, I genuinely didnt know. It doesn't matter to me where you guys post it, I'll be checkin. Take care

Can someone explain how Time Extension works here? This is a 20-some year old video and is featured on NL, but McDonalds put out an actual new video game and it's on the time extension site.

@SBandy1 ahh got it thanks. I was more surprised to see it on any charts but didnt know how it all worked

Didnt SF6 just release like 2 days ago?

My krikzz GBA everdrives putting some work in lately. Probably scoop Dango Dash (gbc) by incube8 games, also playing splatoon and more re4 on the big screen. Have a great weekend everyone

@Chaotic_Neutral it's good for even 1-hour or 3-4 battle bursts. All the modes n accessories may seem overwhelming but mostly irrelevant if you just wanna shoot online opponents a little bit in the mode you like. It's about all I can do with other games I got goin

I'm genuinely curious how Pikmin 4 sales in Japan will rank against other titles. More than splatoon? Kirby? Feel like it could be a big winner there but have no clue
