Bring back Super Mario Bros. 35!

@Greatluigi The Switch colorized version adds barely any color and looks nothing like the GBC Japanese version.

Imagine if this game had reached the U.S. in 1988 instead of after the SNES!

I'm glad they added clothes because the male-gaze sexualization of women in video games is not a good thing. It does not advance gender equality; it reinforces patriarchal notions of women as sex objects. I think he's the one being "ridiculous."

"Forbearer" isn't a word. You mean "forebear."

Rubik's, not "Rubix"

The worst of the FF games, but still fun for old JRPG fans!

The Switch Pixel Remasters of II and III aren't in the list!

@kosterix Hey, thanks for writing this review! I'm thinking of buying it.

It's crazy that we still don't have a Mortal Kombat collection on the Switch. Imagine having I, II, every version of III, and IV? With online matches (at least for some of the games), of course!

Forgot to update the copy on Turtles IV! The Cowabunga Collection came out some time ago now.

@dartmonkey Mother also appears on the NES list, which perhaps can be justified by its later Western releases. But you're definitely cheating with Mother 3! I think you should let Seiken Detsetsu 3 on since it has subsequently seen translation and release.

@getridofyourads That's because they just added a paid subscription that removes ads. Lots of hobby sites use this revenue model now.

@dartmonkey, Wind Waker, Ocarina of Time, and Super Mario 3D World are on this list twice, though the intro says that games released on multiples systems would only be listed once.

I had this as a kid and couldn't get past the third stage, it was so hard.

@dartmonkey Well, now The Guardian Legend and Darkwing Duck need a blurb and a banner image, too! EDIT: And they're fixed, thanks!

For people who are wondering, these lists are user generated, and the reason Final Fantasy and Metroid score so badly is people who rate them often score them relative to the later games because NL runs a poll asking people to rate all the games in the series, so they can't give them all a 9 or 10!

@dartmonkey, Adventure Island III and Little Nemo are missing the blurb descriptions (and Little Nemo is missing the banner image).

I've finished the first six and XI, and have started VII!

The physical version costs $35 vs. $15 on eShop. Kind of hard to justify more than double the cost.

I want the actual first Mortal Kombat game on Switch!

PlayAsia had physical copies for preorder. Looking forward to mine arriving soon!

And that's it. RIP, eShops.

And that's it. RIP, eShops.

I love the 3DS, and expect to play it for many years to come.

@Zeroshiki- Physical games won't last "forever" either. Cartridges aren't magic.

@Kit They did: Bubble Bobble 4 Friends

This game deserves better than a 6. It's only short if you don't bother to find the Special Hearts and unlock all the stages. It has 24 stages!

One of the very best Game Boy games, playable on Switch, and NL doesn't have a review!?

Will be giving this a try on Switch now that it's been released with the (terrible) NES game.

This is a duplicate entry. You already have another, much more complete listing for the Game Boy Adventure.

I lucked out and somehow got the only copy at any Best Buy near me. I don't understand why Target isn't selling it!

An excellent game. NL should really write reviews of at least the more notable Arcade Archives releases.

Alana said it: the SNES, hands down.

I never play my Switch in handheld mode, I always use the Lite. The Switch is too big for handheld. The Lite is perfect.

I wonder why the user rankings have Link's Awakening at only a 9.06. I wonder if people have given it a 9 instead of a 10 because they're comparing it to other Zelda games when they should be comparing it to other Game Boy games.

My favorite was the Game Boy games!

Why isn't this on Switch yet? C'mon, Square Enix.

The Game Boy game is in fact Maru's Mission, right? The only one of these games that was released in the U.S., and available on the 3DS eShop until March.

Is this the localization of Oira JaJaMaru! Sekai Daibouken?

Review contains an error: you can purchase weapons from before you even go to Lorule.

Whoa, this is harsh. The 7/10 review seems more appropriate.

It would be madness not to bring DQX Offline to the West. Madness, I say!

This review is really harsh. This is a great Game Boy Color game. There is so much content in it—hours of fun finding every red coin and Yoshi egg! Plus the 32 Lost Levels.

I hope they restock the physical editions, and actually email the wait-list.

I hope this wait-list actually leads to being able to buy it.

@beartown It's old enough to be a classic now! Over twenty years.

@beartown I just started replaying it and it's definitely a great game. Not sure why it seems to be less beloved.

The Pixel Remasters are so good. We need them on Switch!

I think this is underrated. There are 24 levels, so it's really not that short.
