So, this confirms that that most of the best Wii-U exclusives are now on Switch. No need to want a Wii-U anymore. Now, Nintendo needs to port or remaster more Wii games.
I thought that black Friday sales were traditionally only in US the day after Thanksgiving. Has the world copied this day after Thanksgiving tradition?
Wow, a 10 from Nintendo's biggest fan club website. I am sure it is not biased at all. 😜. Have not played Xenoblade series, but it is on my future playlist.
The negative impact of Covid is that no one wants to work anymore. I work in an office type of a job, not video game related. Everyone wants to work at home and people can't even make half the numbers they used to do, while working from home. Restaurants can't find people willing to work and have to close some days during the week due to staff shortages. I imagine that all employers in other sectors are dealing with this. This is in US, probably Europe as well. I do want better work life balance and I am all for it, but people got lazy during Covid.
My hopes:
Mario Odyssey 2 announcement
Bayonetta 3 coming out this year
Metrioid Prime 4 surprise drop later this year. Metroid Prime Trilogy available this month.
Actual Persona games, not some spin offs.
a huge 3rd party game (like Witcher 3) that is not cloud based, maybe Borderlands 3 Complete Edition.
Mass Effect Trilogy
NHL or Madden would be nice.
whether Michael is guilty or innocent, I think Sega decided not to use his music for a game that targets kids. They wanted to avoid that controversy but still created it with adult gamers.
Why we want an announcement of Silksong? We already know it is coming at some point. Release date announcement does not have to be part of this. I want them to spend more time to announce games, not talk about games we already know about.
So some of these games are already in Sega Genesis classics Collection and some as stand alone as Sega Ages releases. Sure we get Sonic CD and Knuckles one, but very underwhelming collection. Should have had way more Sonic games from other consoles.
Time to move on. You can still re-download your purchases, just can’t make new ones. Sony did this with Vita. Honestly, I move on as I am too busy with Switch and PS5 at the moment, and someday I will move on to Switch 2 and PS6.
Pretty sure those Batman listings are true and will be announced . just hoping that there won't be a lot of cloud based games, as I can't play those on the go. Would love a Mario Odyssey 2. Still waiting for NHL or Madden, come on EA.
You have a minority of gamers demanding physical releases or no purchase, then they give you a limited physical release, and people complain of prices. Can’t win. Physical releases are too expensive to make for smaller games. Time to accept digital releases .
Wow, thanks for telling us how much percent the games are off. How about doing the homework for lazy people Like me and tell us the actual sale prices?
Somehow I don't see an Animal Crossing gamer liking GTA games. I like GTA and I don't like Animal Crossing but I don't post how Animal Crossing is lame (to me) and how AC lovers should play GTA games. Why have an AC super fan post on this in the first place?
I tried playing Isaac when it was on Vita. Found it too hard for me, and then had to start from scratch each time. Games like Rogue Legacy are better because they let you keep some progress/experience each time you die. By the way, which Isaac version is this now?
I just want a couple of games. Nintendo should allow me to purchase a couple of download games, not subscribe to rent a bunch of games that I am not interested in.
With Sega classics collection that contains 50 games for 30 bucks, it’s harder to want to justify the Sega games here. And Nintendo doesn’t want people to own digital purchases anymore with the older games and would rather have fans rent instead. I would rather have the option to buy a couple of these individually for $5 to $7 a piece.
So funny that people are still into cartridges. All or nothing, hahaha. I guess some folks are going to be missing out on some games, while I replay these remastered classics on the go and enjoy every minute of it. I have been waiting for GTA games on Switch, so big yes for me.
They already have a new handheld, it is called Switch. How about using this productivity to bring AAA games to Switch instead? Not just remastered games. Having said that, wouldn't mind a Switch Pro or Switch 2 as long as it is backward compatible with Switch1 games.

Re: Poll: What's The Best Simpsons Game?
Simpsons PS3 version and Hit and Run are my favorite Simpsons games. Would love a remake remaster of those 2 games.

This is one of the highlights from the Direct for me.

Eww, cloud versions. No thank you.
Re: Poll: Do You Actually Want Switch Ports Of Wind Waker And Twilight Princess?
I had a Wii before and Switch is my second Nintendo console, so I never got to play these. So a big yes for me.
Re: Review: Prinny Presents NIS Classics Volume 3 - Another Pair Of Lesser-Known RPG Gems
Such a high price for 2 old games. For that price, it should be 10 games in the collection.
Re: SEGA Genesis Mini 2 Games List - Every Mega Drive And SEGA CD Game, All 61 Titles
Where is Willy Beamish, NHL and Third World War for Sega Cd? Wishful games for me. Is the loading improved for the Sega CD games?

Re: SEGA Genesis Mini 2 Confirmed For North American Release This October
I remember playing "Third World War" non stop on Sega CD. NHL 94 CD and Sonic CD were also amazing. So many fond memories of Sega CD.

Re: Here's How Much Nintendo's Directors Made This Year
This is considered modest? Really, I think most of us are borderline homeless if this is modest.

Physical release only? That's a big fail.
Re: Review: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed - Shallow And Short, But Passable Starfiller
Wasn't Wii version inferior to PS3/Xbox versions? Those had better graphics. I played it on PS3 and enjoyed it. Why remaster the inferior version?

@Specter_of-the_OLED I actually like the new look.

Re: Soapbox: Dear Konami, Please Do Something Decent With Castlevania
I loved Lords of Shadow (the first one). Maybe they could remaster the 3 Shadow games.
Re: Review: Sherlock Holmes: Crimes And Punishments - A Superb Port Of The Best Sherlock Holmes Video Game
No comment on whether long loading times were improved for Switch. Xbox one version had some super long loading times.
Re: Spike Chunsoft Switch eShop Sale Is Live, Discounts Up To 85% Available (North America)
I love pixel junk monsters 2 but stopped playing because of super long times. Does anyone know if they fixed that?
Re: Nintendo Dominates Amazon's Best Sellers Of 2021 Gaming List
What is the incentive for Nintendo to release the next Mario Kart if 8 Deluxe keeps selling like crazy.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch Ports We'd Love To See In 2022
Would love to see NHL or Madden , even an inferior version. How about NHL 94 Rewind?
Re: Frogwares Teases A Switch Port Of Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments
Get ready for super long loading screens. Even on Xbox One, it took forever. But it is a super fun game to play

Re: Talking Point: Should The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Library Expand Faster?
I just want to play a couple of games on this service. I should be allowed to purchase separately, not having to subscribe
Re: Feature: All Five American Football Games On Switch (Yes, You Read That Right)
Shame how there’s no Madden or NHL on Switch. Not even NHL 94 Rewind, come on EA, make it happen.

Re: Talking Point: Do You Have A 'Way' You Play Certain Switch Games?
You forgot another option, play big screen with PS5, Switch for portability. You have an option but it doesn't take other consoles into account

You forgot another option : yes, when it goes on a sale 10 years from now
Re: Feature: Our Predictions For The September 2021 Nintendo Direct
Please no more Smash. Hope that portion doesn’t take up a chunk of time. Mario Odyssey 2 would be cool to see.
Re: Alan Wake Remastered Has Been Rated For Nintendo Switch
Probably a cloud version, if that, then will pass the Switch version.
Re: Sega Releases Its First Patch For Sonic Colors Ultimate On Nintendo Switch
Does it fix the allegedly super long loading? It is 3 times as long to load on Switch than Wii. Yikes

Re: Switch Players Are Supposedly Encountering All Sorts Of Glitches In Sonic Colors Ultimate
This is supposedly so much worse than Wii U version including much longer loading times. How is it that Switch version is so inferior to Wii U? Yikes.
Re: Seven More Switch Games To Watch From Gamescom's Awesome Indies Showcase
Terror of Hemasaurus looks fun, but I wonder if makers of Rampage have a lawsuit here for the game looking too much like Rampage.
Re: Dying Light Platinum Edition Is Heading To Switch
Not cloud? Actually digital or physical? If yes, then that's awesome.
