@Bunkerneath Ah yes! Because somehow the manufacturing and distribution of this current physical version for Nintendo Switch correlates with the game already being out on a different platform.🙄
@EmoGamer I don't know about that. I've actually seen people beat Stadium 1 and 2 using only rental Pokemon. I think it's more about strategy and knowing which Pokemon to use.
@Discostew He may be a "former Retro dev, but just like was stated, he was the lead designer on all 3 games. Pretty sure he's not just talking out of his butt.
My only fear about a Pro model Switch is that Nintendo might sacrifice the consoles hybrid nature in exchange for a boost in power. If I can't take it with me in the go, what's the point?
You know, if it takes all of these updates just to fix the game, I think that they should have just delayed release and finished polishing the game first rather than releasing something that was half broken.
Like a lot of other people, I never bothered to get a Wii U back during it's time, so this game flew completely under my radar during it's original release. I'm glad to see this its getting a second chance at life on Nintendo Switch. I will definitely pick up Wonderful 101 when it releases.
I would love it if they ported this over to Switch though. I don't have a Wii U, never owned one, and at this point, it seems very unlikely that I'll get one seeing that almost everything that I wanted to play on Wii U has already or will be ported over to Switch in the future. I don't want to go out and buy a whole console just for Xenoblade Chronicles X.
This is great!! I don't have a Switch yet, but potentially losing my save files was my biggest worries about owning one. But it seems that Nintendo has put my mind at ease. And holy smokes!!! Only $20 a year for online!! That's waaaayy cheaper than Playstation or Xbox!!! Hopefully I'll have a Switch within the next couple of months.
@AlbertXi Unfortunately, Square Enix has crushed any hopes of the 3DS version being released in the west. That's why I'll be holding out for the Switch version so that I can take it on the go. Most likely won't release until next year though.

Re: Suda51: No More Heroes Could Return If There's "A Big Fan Outcry"
But why does there need to be "fan outcry" when they already know that people will most likely appreciate another game in the series?

Re: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion Refreshes PSP Favourite This December
@GrailUK Yes it is! Your ears are in for quite the treat!
Re: Switch Online Versions Of Pokémon Stadium 1 & 2 Won't Support Transfers
I'm fine with this. Using rental Pokemon takes more skill than importing a suped up team of lvl 100 Pokemon.
Re: Review: Pac-Man World Re-Pac - Perfectly Passable PS1 Platforming
I get the impression that this reviewer thinks this game is a simple port or remaster, and not a complete from the ground up remake.

Re: Former Metroid Prime Lead Designer Targeted With Abusive Messages
Such stupid behavior acting like this over a video game!
Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy Switch Port? Unlikely, Says Former Retro Studios Dev
@Dpishere Yeah, at this rate, the Switch will end up being just like the N64 in never receiving a metroid game.

I'll play Animal Crossing. It's just too bad that I won't have any real life friends to share it with.
