Corvus96

I won't know how I feel about it until I play it. What I've seen looks amazing, what I've read here is concerning.

@Kraven "What Metroid Prime 4 is seemingly trying to be is a far less interesting, and more dated, type of first-person action game with none of the mood the series is known for."

Not exactly a "classic metroid prime experience" it seems

@SillyG dang....that's a bummer

0 definitely had is issues (did you remember the hookshot?) But it's always been one of my favorites. Hard to beat the atmosphere of a runaway train full of Zombies, and the classic mansion esthetic. I don't really think it needs a remake, but I would definitely buy it if they made one.

@Retrograde they're literally releasing RE 9 soon, quit whining

And 6 is the worst one, btw

I have my original NES my neighbor gave me back in 96 that I still play on, as well as a retron 5 as a backup. I started actually collecting nes games a few years ago, and it's just so much more rewarding playing these games on original hardware.

@SillyG is the entire game really set within just a city?

@Res462 100% agree. It's crazy how much dialogue there is in some of these games. What happened to subtlety? They explain everything now. Plenty of filler too.

@RedfromKanto you mean$450? Where are they $600? Do people just claim any amount at this point, lol

@PikminMarioKirby where in the world is Sonic crossworlds $90??

@PKDuckman what nonsense? Physical games you can't get physically otherwise?

@ArcadeSixties these are contractors, not employees. Nintendo actually tale great care of its employees. Far better than Microsoft or Sony.

Quit being a drama queen

@Yojimbo 3 games on a physical cart for $35....oh the humanity

So basically $35 a piece for amazing games that are Remastered, finally on switch, and have bonus content? Sounds great. What's the problem?

@TrogdorTheBurninator save stations are synonymous with metroid dude

As a metroid fan, I never realized what a bunch of whiny, spoiled brats metroid fans are. Did I miss the part in the trailer where they shot her dog or something? Lol

The game looks amazing. It looks like metroid prime, but with a bike and ONE area that's big and open. Hasn't even come out yet and people are complaining about it.

Sony copying nintendos ideas? Shocking

@Ooccoo_Jr because there was still the option for physical. Now they're taking that away. That's the problem.

I will not buy digital, I will not buy a code in a box, and I will not buy a hunk of plastic that doesn't actually have the game on it....which is exactly what the game "key card" bs are.
It's just that simple. Put the games on the carts. Hope the companies that don't, fail.

@Joe11 the problem with that is they don't really limit production aside from within a certain window, and literally anyone can buy their stuff. It's not like they only make 1000 of a game. They'll make as much as there is demand for over a 3-6 month pre-order period. For pretty cheap too. Most of those games don't even go up in resale value.

@Fake-news same with me. I've bought from them a lot and never had a problem. Never understood the hate.

@Dee123 even more than what? Their standard editions are usually $35-40, lol

@Joe11 how else could they do it? They can't manufacture hundreds of different games for years. They allow unlimited pre-orders too.

@The_Nintend_Pedant literally says "always"

I'd say we've reached the point in the internet timeline where people will freak out about anything without confirmation, and just spread whatever misinformation they want. I doubt this is true, but if it is, I also doubt most people would care. It's crazy to me though the amount of people I'm hearing (both on and offline) claiming things that are just wrong. If this launch does go badly, the spread of propaganda and misinformation by the online community will be more to blame than a single $80 game....

I've never played any of them honestly. I love rpgs and jrps, but these never really stood out to me. Given how highly they're ranked, that might have to change

Glad it's finally happening and people will get to experience these game.

Of course, it doesn't benefit me at all cause I still have all my gamecube games and multiple gamecubes 😝

Google maps for Zelda games is crazy

@chipia you just pay for an upgrade, not a whole new game. It's free if you're a NSO+ subscriber

Awesome! I can get the switch 1 version, and then just pay for the upgrade whenever I actually get a switch 2. That's way better than separate releases

Gameplay looks great, but good God his design is awful. What happened?

@Oracles_fanboi just cause you underperform doesn't mean you should wish the same on them. Seems like you don't understand the reasoning behind this

@MK73DS blame trump and the Maga politicians. Nobody else wants this either

I've never actually played any of the Dragon quest games. This looks visually stunning though. I've never been a fan of turn based games (other than Pokemon) but I might have to get into these.

@dkxcalibur gotta play TMNT with some friends like you're in the Arcades of old. Ups the replay value a lot

@LikelySatan either I've had too much to drink, or your comment about no 3D Sonic games doesn't make any sense. Or both.

@BoilerBroJoe oh HELL YEAH. thanks for this comment cause I'll definitely check those out then

I'd just like a gamecube controller for docked play in general. The pro controller is great (though kind of small), but gamecube is peak controller. I doubt they'd put GC games on NSO. Not when they can make so much money with remasters. I'd rather pay for physical copies of the remasters/remakes anyway

@johnedwin how dare they keep prices down while being innovative and improving user experience

Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. They're already failing at directly competing with Sony, now they want to try and directly compete with Nintendo (and steam deck)? They should probably focus on trying to sell the hardware they have. They certainly aren't going to be able to compete with the switch 2, after it's been out for a year or two, and with a dedicated handheld. Only way that happens is if they don't bring their games to Nintendo and Sony, and also get considerably more exclusives. I don't see that happening.

The gaming market has only ever been able to handle 3 main console manufacturers, and usually with 1 of them losing quite badly. This sounds like Microsoft wants to continue their trend of being the latter

Long live physical

Seriously though, subscription services are a massive rip off. Obviously I still have some, but I'm not happy about it and consider them a scam

@Ultimapunch I never used virtual console on my wii. That's a pretty sweet deal, but what happens if your wii breaks? Can you login on another one and you're good to go?

For me, I just can't imagine a Pokemon game being based entirely in a city would be fun. Sure there are the "wild zones" but that just sounds so weird. There's, small parks and abandoned streets for Pokemon? In the city? What?

Any console I've ever traded in was for very little money and I regretted it later anyway. Selling a system these days really doesn't make much sense.

They'll outsell the ps2. How wouldn't they? Its going to keep selling after the S2 comes out and it doesn't have far to go. Hell it could WAY outsell it if they really wanted to. I doubt they do though. Imagine a new version of the switch (switch micro?) That's really small, lower processing power, etc. Make it affordable and as portable as the ds and gba were. Or just knock down the price of what's currently made, and throw in some reduced price games....they could easily do it.

@Kingy what makes the snes version of Wanderers so bad? I was recommended it by a friend and it's only like $20 for an original copy. Looking around on YouTube, seems people are split on it. People who love Ys hate it, people who don't play the Ys games seem to be into it.

The rich people that would buy this don't deserve to be rich

@Dee123 yeah, much better for the devs to rip everyone off simultaneously instead

Thanks for the upbeat guide, but where's the acknowledgement of how absolutely ridiculous, predatory, and insulting this trade system is? You can't pick the cards you want in return, common cards are worthless and can't be traded, and you have to consume a bunch of rare cards to get 1 rare card back? Absolutely insane. Glad the other gaming sites are talking about it

Hunks of cheap plastic that'll be way overpriced and just end up in a landfill or the ocean.....wonderful
