Where did you hear Game Freak doesn’t want mainline Pokemon games on NSO and 3DS VC? I hope they changed their mind because I really want to play Gen 1-3 on Switch or Switch 2. I don’t understand what Game Freak stands to gain by not at least selling Gen 1-3 on modern consoles.

I wonder why they released this as New Pokemon Snap since the original N64 game was never released in China. It would be more appropriate to title it “Pokemon Snap”. Also, I feel sad that the original Gen 1 games (Along with Gen 2-6) were never officially released in China. Chinese gamers are experiencing the original games via the Let’s Go versions which in my opinion is nowhere as good as the original Red and Blue versions. At least give them either the digital Gen 1 or Gen 3 remakes. Let’s Go is a terrible way to introduce gamers to the original Pokemon games.

Will Gen 1-3 games ever come out on the Switch?

I hope Sunsoft at some point will release Batman and the Looney Tunes games. But due to licensing I guess it’s a long shot.

Instead of purchasing the Lost Levels icons, I rather purchase this game on the Switch.

@JohnnyMind
I’m hoping for a Sega Saturn Mini/ Classic Edition.

@Krisi
Not necessarily. Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon NES was released for on NSO in Japan then later announced as a title for purchase in the West for a limited time.

Nintendo needs to release much more games in China. Take a look at Nintendo’s China website and it looks like Nintendo’s Switch release up to around 2018.

@Anti-Matter
I wish Nintendo would do what Sony and Microsoft do, give us the option to purchase the games as well.

@PokemonDMG
I rather they offer them for sale instead. Don’t want my Pokemon collection and badges to disappear when one day Nintendo ends the NSO and pulls the plug on all the games in the app.

Please add a purchase option for classic games like Sony does.

Mother 3, if that’s all they announce I would be happy.

Will there be additional restore points added? The original version seriously lacked them.

Any chance they will add more checkpoints in the levels in the HD release?

Doesn’t San Francisco and California have a smash and grab problem as well as a policy of no prosecution for theft of goods under a few hundred dollars?

Anyone know if Luigi’s Mansion 2 will have new features like checkpoints? I never beat the original version due to lack of checkpoints.

@Desrever
I think the physical game is incredibly expensive and rare.

@Mgalens
A physical release of all three games would be great. They localized Trials of Mana for Collection of Mana so there’s always a (slim) possibility.

Why is 3 not in this collection?

I want a new Super Mario World or Super Mario RPG game.

Western fans: Hey Doug Bowser, where’s Mother 3?

Bowser: Thank you for your inquiry but Mother 3’s in another country.

Maybe Mother 3 was not released on Western NSO because Nintendo wants to sell us the game at a later time instead of allowing us to play for free on NSO as part of the subscription.

If I were the US president, I would personally ask the Japanese prime minister to request Nintendo to localize Mother 3 during a personal meeting, no joke.

If Jeff Grubb is wrong, could he treat us all to some grub?

I actually happen to have all the games on this list.

Did they ever say why Veronica was replaced?

Why do people want these games on NSO? I rather pay for a download because I don’t want the rental games on NSO to disappear one day along with my Pokémon and badges.

Why is Pokemon Ruby/ Sapphire/ Emerald and Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green not on this list?

Why was TMNT 3 released as 2 in Japan? Which earlier game did it skip the Famicom?

@andyg1412
That would be nice. It would be awesome if the next console includes a purchase option for these games but that’s probably not going to happen.

Will these games likely carry over to Switch 2?

@Jeronan
I feel your pain regarding the region lock. I started collecting DVDs more than 20 years ago and back then before HD TVs there was an additional barrier on top of region lock: Region 1 TVs used NTSC and region 2 TVs used PAL format. At least now a region free player solves the problem of watching releases from other territories. I am a bit surprised that Pokemon TV is being discontinued. I wonder if they have something better to replace it although I am not counting on it.

This is why physical media is important.

@Zeldinion
I played it but felt the levels and graphics are like New Super Mario Bros Wii and U. I felt Super Mario Bros 3 was so amazing with the powerups, new worlds and enemies and Super Mario World had different secret exits, castles and memorable enemies. I guess the Mario franchise is getting tiresome with the same enemies and worlds. I wish they could make another game similar to Super Mario Bros 2, that was a real refreshing direction although I know it was not originally a Mario game.

I wish Miyamoto was the producer of recent Mario games. The newer Mario games seem to be much less fun compared to Super Mario Bros. 1-3, Super Mario World and Super Mario 64.

Is this a digital release only? I can’t find the physical copy to preorder.

Ahhh every time I see these articles I want to buy the game featured. Unfortunately, some games featured especially with the box is no longer affordable.

I hope we get Dragon Quest 4-6 on Switch and PS5.

I want more Sega mini consoles.

I hope they release a Dragon Quest Pixel Remaster for 1-6.

@Baker1000
They better not restart everything from scratch because if they do, I’m canceling my subscription instantly.

Is this digital only?

Will it be possible to play co op online for Jet Force Gemini?

Will there likely be an official sequel?

I hope a general Direct follows the week after.

@Dm9982
Sony and Microsoft have purchase options on top of access via subscription. Nintendo could do the same.

I want physical strategy guides back too!

I hope they will seriously consider a sequel to this game and one that will be released within 2-3 years.

@Zeroo
I’m paying $50, getting it at JNL Games. I always get my preorder in the mail the day after the release date.

How is the battle system in this game? I played the original and was running around enemies and didn’t understand if I was supposed to press attack button as I pass by them.
