@Rambler People in UK liked the arcadey type Megadrive games. UK gamers were more about coolness than gameplay (although Tomb Raider was amazing back in the day). Also back then Nintendo historically never release a lot of games to the European market, in particular almost all RPG games like Earthbound, Fintasy IV, V, VI, Chrono Trigger, Super Mario RPG etc.

@Rambler Until Switch came out, that was never, ever the case. The Megadrive/Genesis was bigger here than the SNES, and Sony beat every other console apart from maybe the 360 as the dumbed down for the masses games on that console were a hit with us Brits.

The Baftas are British (as was Lara Croft although they have taken away her hilariously posh Emglish accent). Nintendo has never been as big in the UK as we are known for having a huge preference for dumbed down violent games.

Mario is not only the most iconic video game character, he is apparently more recognisable to young kids than Mickey Mouse now so I would not take this list seriously.

There is definitely some regency bias.

Tears if the Kingdom was insultingly easy compared to Breath of the Wild. Everyone was excited to see the return of Dungeons; however, they were so uninspired and easy it turned out 5he challenging puzzles and excellent level design of the Divine Beasts were much better. TotK had so much uninspired and easy filler. The Depths felt pointless, repetitive and boring.

If it was not for Nintendo gaming would be completely stale, with other companies focusing only on bankable IP.

@ArcticEcho I won't buy it, just like Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee

If it is a B&W remake, I pray it has better graphics than BDSP as it has the best story of any Pokemon game.

@Ryne-Gaia Someone working at a Nintendo Park, should understand that someone who bought a wristband from the Japan Park, why it would be important to them. If someone is beibg polite to them, there is no need to be rude back and it says more about them. I hope you do not work in customer facing work if you are that judgemental.

@Johnnycide Japan is not expensive when you are there (far cheaper than California that is for sure). It is just more expensive to get to.

@Johnnycide The Osaka one is bigger as it has a desert level section and the Yoshi ride. There are more stores and more games for the Power-up Band. The band fell of my wrist in Japan and the staff went out their way to find it for me and I was dressed like Luigi and they were all jumping around. In Holywood my wristband fell off within 10 mins of going into the park. The staff were rude and dismissive and not interested and it really took away from the fun of the park. It is smaller, the merchandise is rubbish and it felt it looked unfinished. The rest of the park is not great compared to Florida or Japan either.

@Johnnycide

Sorry. I fixed all the typos.

After being there, and the one in Japan I can honestly say the Hollywood park is crap. It looks unfinished, you can see everything outside the park and the staff are rude and unhelpful. In Japan it is bigger, you can't see anything outside the park so it feels like you are in the Mushroom Kingdom and the staff really make it a magical experience for you! The merchandise in Jaan is amazing too.

I would actually love them to remake it in the look similar to FF7/8/9

How will pokemon from older generations be transfered?

Nintendo should not make past pokemon games useless.

I can't wait to experiemce this in November!

The main map, in the North East corner looks like there should be another area there. I wonder if that will be the case.

It is about time Sega went back to its classic catalogue and revived them, but with the help of capable developers.

There has not been a good one since Saiken Densetsu 3 on SNES.

The right developer...... Playtonic have been quiet for some time now.

Banjo Threeie needs to be more Kazooie than Tooie though.

I still would love to know how Rare would look now had Nintendo bought them.

@Znake They were not subscription services!!. I think Nintendo have learned their lesson. Also the Switch architecture is more easily transferrable to new hardware, due to similarities with PC/Android. I would be surprised if Nintendo do not continue to just use newer TEGRA chips in its hardware.

Dear Nintendo, do a Sega and work with this man to make this real.

The Water Temple was fantastic. Bring back challenging puzzles in Zelda games and stop making games too easy.
BotW had the best puzzles in a Zelda game since the N64 days, it is sad that TotK had the worst and most easiest since Wind Waker.

I hope they are makibg Banjo Threeie for Microsoft tbh. It might even get released on Switch 2, considering MS currebt practice.

@Znake I seriously doubt it will be gone one day. Nintendo know the worth of theor back catalogue, and will likely increase the price when Gamecube and (hopefully) Saturn get added to it, then a little more when the Wii games come.

Would Nintendo allow a game like Conker's Bad Fur Day on the Switch Online Expansion? I hope it happens. It is still the funniest game I ever played, the Exorcist parody being a particular highlight, or when the broom tried to hang itself.

Hiw abput a translated Goemon collection please?

English voice over would be good since they already exist.

I found no sense of wonder in TotK and not one single moment of amazement. BotW was full of those "wonderous" moments of discovery, but because the same map was used, and the Depths and Sky were so bland and repetitive, I never once felt that "wow" feeling. The game was also insultingly easy as the puzzles, if you can call them that, were child's play. Everyone was excited for the return of traditional dungeons; however, they were the easiest in Zelda history with the worst bosses which is a real shame as the Divine Beasts were so imaginative with challenging puzzles, bosses and great music. I appreciate what they were trying to do with TotK, but the execution was not great, and it felt like a backwards step from its predecessor to me. Too much repetitive filler that made it feel more like Assassin's Creed than Zelda. I have no idea what the 6 years went into developing. The worst Zelda game ever in my opinion.

The unlocks are very bland. Amiibo have so much more potential that is being missed.

I am not sure how Pauline would feel being added to the "heavy class", if she was a real petson of course.

No Darkrai? It looks like it should be A Ghost mon and it is very creepy.

I wished they would just come to Switch Online

What an absolute ***** show all this is. Buying a load of studios just to close studios down or pay people off.

Day 1 purchase for me if the controks are updated. They did it with Resident Evil re remakes so no reason why they cant for this

Such a fantastic game on DS

I went a couple of months ago. Travelled from Scotland after being to the one in Japan in November. The one in Hollywood is not great. The staff were rude, whereas in Japan the staff really go out their way to make it a magical experience and make you feel like younare in the Mushroom Kingdom. The merchandise in Japan is also amazing in comparison.

I hate when they takeaway challenge from a game.

I would have had Waterblight Ganon in there, as well as Majora's Mask, and put Phantom Ganon at number 1 for sure.

I am playing it, but I am not finding the puzzles as challenging or the exploration as interesting tbh. Its like an easier BotW. The Divine Beasts were better designed puzzle-wise than yhe stupidly easy dungeons in TotK.

Tbh, it's kind of a crap unlock. Give me a Ganondirf or Zelda costume please

Ha ha. I thought "yonks" was a word only used in Scotland by Scottish people to mean "in ages", or "for a long time"; however, I have been pleasantly surprised today x

@Papery0shi Really it was worth the whole cost of the trip. I have never been in a themed park so authentic. I wished I could post pics as I was dressed up as Luigi the whole time and the staff were going crazy for it!

I am just back from the park in Japan and it is sensational. The people who work their really act the part and it feels magical.

The game charts would indicate people like Nintendo games in the UK. X-Box is mainly popular in the UK and yhe USA and nowhere else I thought.

For sure I would have put the opening screen of Super Metroid too. It perfectly set the scene for the game to come, probably more so than any other game.

I would like some new monsters instead of variants of others

Majora's Mask is the most complex (and one of the best), it is definitely not the one to play first. Start with a Link to the Past and play in order to see the evolution from there. The evolution from 2D to 3D was the best of any game series. I did not think as much of the Gamecube/Wii trio as they were far too easy in comparison.

Their franchises are bastardised. The churn out ganes like there is no tomorrow with half of the quality of what they used to.

@Thenewguy But great gameplay with great graphics is even better.
