It's honestly the #1 game that made me buy a Switch 2.

@RoboCube No I didn't play the mobile games, I was talking about console games. And it was a generalization, I know that it's not 100% only Sonic.

@RoboCube This is such a weird comment. Sonic Adventure 1&2 and Heroes (and 06) were the games that shove as many characters as they could. They stopped doing that after 06, it's been almost only Sonic for 20 years.

Year of Shadow was one of the best marketing strategy I've seen, it really brought me back to Sonic after years of not being really interested.

But I don't feel like it can be repeated, Shadow's popularity and hype factor are just on a different level. Amy is fun and popular, but I have a hard time imagining a Year of Amy being exciting like the Year of Shadow.

But maybe it's ok, maybe it doesn't have to be as hype as Shadow, it just needs to be more exciting than any regular year.

That news affected me a lot yesterday morning. Itagaki-san was one of my biggest inspirations, he had an amazing vision for fun and flashy games.

DOA4 is still one of my favorite games of all time and maybe my most played game ever. It's a fighting game masterpiece imo.

RIP Itagaki-san

@X68000 Yes it's amazing, I just refinished it

Goemon Collection
or a new Bakeru game

Let's go!

I'm loving this game so far, but I really hope they'll release a Switch 2 update to make it 60fps. It's playable at 30fps, but it's not as smooth as it's supposed to be.

@Linnybhoy Bakeru? Yes it's easy. But it's fun even if it's easy

It just got really more interesting, but I'm still more hyped for Metroid and Hyrule Warriors

@John_Deacon and in that case it should have been #1

Sure, World is new. But it feels wrong to put it at #5. I was expecting it to be #1 or #2.

@RupeeClock Nah it's not because of Unity. It's possible to make 30FPS games with Unity without input delay.

@BotGaiden Sadly, Contra OG still has a big input lag.

60fps Bakeru is a dream

Looks epic
A bit disappointed that the girl isn't Ayane, but still cool

@Vyacheslav333 Kiwami 1 & 2 were not on Wii U, it's the original Yakuza 1&2 that were on Wii U. Kiwami 2 was released during the Switch era.

Also, Kiwami 2 was made on a different, superior engine (Dragon Engine). It would have to be downgraded to be ported to Switch 1.

But yea, Yakuza 0 could have been on Switch 1, it's indeed a PS3 game.

@YoshiAngemon The Gex Trilogy collection is coming, it's already announced.

@ElkinFencer10 Because it's already announced

@burndive I absolutely want TP on GC NSO. It's one of my favorite games ever and I don't really want them to remake it. It's such a good game, I feel like it would be hard to make it really better, but easy to make it worse.

The HD version was better, but not that much. The original versions are still great.

And if it's on NSO, I won't have to buy it a 4th time.

I'm guessing NintendoLife forgot Twilight Princess was on GameCube.

I was very hyped for this collection and I planned to buy it day 1. But with the Switch 2 releasing the following month... I'll save my money for the Switch 2

I want Konami to announce a Goemon collection.

I'm hype for that one. Zelda-like, with early 2000s anime aesthetic and with Goemon Impact fights. It's right up my alley.

@Serpenterror I know it's made by Dimps and what they made. Did you just insinuate that Sonic 4 was good?

@Serpenterror The 3DS version kinda sucked though

It's cool. It doesn't feel like a Smash Reveal trailer, but it's cool

I always say that Oath in Felghana is my favorite, but in recent years, I've been returning to Ys I & II a lot more, expecially the TG-CD version.

@Bigmanfan The series initially had yearly releases (1,2,3,4,5). The team was so tired on working on those games that they tried to kill Lara, but they were asked to continue even though Lara was supposed to be dead.

Tomb Raider: The Bad Collection

I'd like it to be true... but honestly Rogma doesn't sound like a Reggie reference at all.

@KayFiOS Yep I'm not far into the game, but that's also the feeling I got when I saw the ruins in the desert.

@Anti-Matter Voice acting is expensive and won't add much to this game.

I rather have no voice acting than the poor voice acting of BOTW/TOTK

@Serpenterror Link speaks in the other games, we just don't see it.

For example, Link talks with Zelda when they meet in Ocarina of Time, we just don't see Link's answers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B36DZ3lnzRA

There are plenty of examples like that in the series. Echoes of Wisdom's Link is the first mute Link.

Also, it can't be before Skyward Sword, Hyrule didn't exist yet.

I think I would have preferred if there was no explanation to his muteness in EoW. Already too many people were saying that Link never talks because he's mute, but now it's true in one game. It will just add to the confusion

Not a big deal, but when I read that, I was like "oh boy, they went there".

@Serpenterror Since they put BOF1 and BOF2 on NSO, it makes me feel they don't plan on making a Breath of Fire collection at all.

Which is a bit weird considering they are Capcom and they make tons of collections

Same for Ghosts n Goblins, they added Ghosts 'n Goblins, Ghouls 'n Ghosts and Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts on NSO instead.

The title screams "there's nothing interesting about our game"

It doesn't look bad though... but that title leaves a bad first impression

@PikminMarioKirby You might be confusing the Advance games with the Adventure games. The 3rd Sonic movie is focusing a lot on Sonic Adventure 2.

I'm pretty sure I'd pay real money for a Goemon profile icon.

I was already sold, and then they show Goemon Impact boss fights. Must buy

That's a shame. It's my favorite shmup ever and I've been considering getting it again on Switch for a while... but I guess I'll have to decide soon now

Insta switch to japanese voices

None
I play old games all the time. I'm generally able to keep in mind that they are old games, and sometimes gameplay mechanics and game design were not at their best.

I'm more afraid of replaying the same game too often and getting tired of it.

@Serpenterror You're asking a lot. Based on other collections from Konami, I wouldn't expect that many games in the same collection.

The 4 main SFC games for sure. Probably the 2 main FC games. Maybe the first GB game. If we're lucky, the 2 main N64 games, but Konami collections focus mostly on 2D sprite-based games.

CONTRA LET'S GO

@Teksetter I'm surprised Pyoro has not been stopped already. They will have to stop him before the reveal of the next console, it would suck if Pyoro leaks it early.

@Not_Soos Yea please, I would love a Midna icon! I guess I'll have to wait for Twilight Princess HD, which will surely release soon, right?
.... right?

Wow those are huge amiibos!

@FlyingBeardedLizard this game is worthy of a review

This game is amazing. I recommend it to all Goemon fans. It's basically the first Goemon game in 18 years.

2023 was an amazing year for video games, but Mameda no Bakeru is easily my GOTY.

But yea it's easy. But that's fine, at least it's super fun.
