Anyone here watched all the Pokemon episodes? After hitting 40 I realized I need to catch up on the massive backlog of episodes I haven’t watched (Which is practically all the episodes) before one day it’s too late for me to.
Will this game ever get re-released? It came out on the Wii virtual console and I think it was shown as an upcoming Wii U VC release but it never came out on Wii U or Switch Online.
Regardless of how you feel about this release, at least C64 games aren’t locked behind a subscription paywall like Nintendo is doing with their retro games.
@Blast16 I don’t think they will be obsolete in a few years, probably in a few decades. As a matter of fact, I’m worried about the limit on 4 controllers per account. What if all 4 breaks then will have to put up with using Switch controllers.
The one good thing about Microsoft acquiring Nintendo is they are much better with retro games preservation. They will probably allow us to buy the old games and move them to the next console for free.
As great as Pokémon Gen 1-3 on NSO sounds, do you guys really want that since all the Pokémon and badges will disappear one day when Nintendo pulls the plug on NSO?
@karatekid1612 I don’t know how VC would work at this point. Will they make everyone who already purchased the same games on Wii or Wii U pay full price or just an upgrade fee? If they bring back VC they will probably start everything from scratch again.
I wish Nintendo will re-release Luigi’s Mansion 1 on Switch as a Gamecube remaster but it doesn’t look like it’s happening with the second game getting re-released.
I hope Nintendo will eventually add a purchase option so we have permanent access to the games and not lose our save file when one day these games disappear when NSO ends.
@lemonjellydude I just finished it recently. I had a great time playing it especially with the boost enhancements that can be used if needed. It’s a short game but very fun. I definitely recommend playing this.
Well Nintendo could release more mini consoles like an N64, Gamecube or GBA Classic Edition but since they will hurt the Expansion Pak subscription sales they probably will not.

Re: Newly Discovered Nintendo Filing Shows Off "Dual-Screen, Detachable Device"

Wasn’t there a Super Famicom Japanese release too?
Re: Disney Dreamlight Valley Will No Longer Be Free-To-Play When It Leaves Early Access In December
Sounds like something Disney would do, price gouging just like they do with their Disney World prices.
Re: Nintendo Accounts To "Help Ease" Next-Gen Transition, According To Doug Bowser
There better not be a transfer fee like they did with Wii to Wii U virtual console transfers.

Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Scores Another Round Of Previews Ahead Of Release
I don’t know if it will measure up to Yoshi’s Island because that game is absolutely amazing.
Re: Soapbox: What Do You Do When Nintendo Ticks Off Your ENTIRE Most-Wanted List?
I don’t think Nintendo will grant western gamers the wish of getting Mother 3 checked off the most wanted games list.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Yoshi's Cookie
Will this game ever get re-released? It came out on the Wii virtual console and I think it was shown as an upcoming Wii U VC release but it never came out on Wii U or Switch Online.

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Advance Library Next Week
Can the co op be done online?

Could never figure out where to go in this game.
Re: Soapbox: Nintendo, "THE Prime Asset" In Xbox's Content Quest? It's Only Natural
The one good thing about Microsoft acquiring Nintendo is they are much better with retro games preservation. They will probably allow us to buy the old games and move them to the next console for free.

Re: Video: Super Mario RPG Gets Another Side-By-Side Graphics Comparison (Switch & SNES)

All Super Mario RPG bosses are a joke in terms of difficulty compared with other Square games like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest.
Re: TMNT: Shredder's Revenge Lands A New Physical Edition With DLC Included This November
Does it include a free pizza from Pizza Hut like the last physical release?
Re: Luigi's Mansion 2 HD Gets Spooky On Switch Next Summer
Uh are they adding restore points to the remaster? There are no restore points in the 3DS version and I quit playing because of that.

You mean Japan will be getting Goldeneye, they already got Harvest Moon 64.
Re: Video: The N64 Kart Racer That Deserves To Be On Switch
Why not allow Rare Replay to be released on the Switch with Diddy Kong Racing and Donkey Kong 64?
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: The Legend Of Zelda
I wonder why Zelda 2 didn’t get a cartridge release in Japan after Zelda 1?
Re: Pokémon Presents Announced For 8th August 2023
As great as Pokémon Gen 1-3 on NSO sounds, do you guys really want that since all the Pokémon and badges will disappear one day when Nintendo pulls the plug on NSO?
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Targeting A 2024 Release For The Switch Successor
@karatekid1612
I don’t know how VC would work at this point. Will they make everyone who already purchased the same games on Wii or Wii U pay full price or just an upgrade fee? If they bring back VC they will probably start everything from scratch again.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Color Library With Two Zelda Classics
@Bydlak
They will offer to sell each game to us and tell us that if we don’t pay to download the games they will disappear forever.
Re: Feature: How Summer Holidays And Childhood Nostalgia Revolutionised Pokémon
Any chance of the original GBA versions getting a re-release?

Re: Nintendo's Famicom 40th Anniversary Website Is A Treasure Trove Of Trivia

They should have done that a long time ago, back from Wii to Wii U and Wii U to Switch.
Re: Limited Run Games Showcase To Feature "20+ New Digital And Physical Announcements"
Jurassic Park retro collection was supposed to be announced this month. Now July 12?
Re: Review: Pikmin 1 - A Bare-Bones Port, But A Joyous Adventure

Re: Where To Pre-Order Super Mario RPG On Switch
@Mauzuri
It’s almost identical to the Japanese SFC box art.

Give us a real sequel to Super Mario World and Super Mario RPG!
Re: Feature: Our Predictions For The June 2023 Nintendo Direct
@Gavintendo
I wonder how reliable the leaks are. The Zelda Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD leak from Jeff Grubb turned out to be wrong.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library Next Week With Fire Emblem
Geez one retro game on Expansion Pak. I miss the virtual console era with multiple games per week.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Color, SNES & NES Library With Four More Titles

Re: Random: Japanese Zelda Fans Steal Copies Of TOTK By Working As Delivery Assistants
I wish early 20s are still teens. Then when I’m 50 I will still be in my 40s.
Re: Random: Russia's Unofficial Pokédex Presents A Hilarious, Alternate Take On Pokémon
Does Nintendo still operate in Russia? Their Russian site is still operating.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library With Three Super Mario Games
Too bad we can’t purchase them on NSO.

I just finished it recently. I had a great time playing it especially with the boost enhancements that can be used if needed. It’s a short game but very fun. I definitely recommend playing this.
Re: As Switch Momentum Slows, Nintendo Expects Further Sales Decline Next Year
Well Nintendo could release more mini consoles like an N64, Gamecube or GBA Classic Edition but since they will hurt the Expansion Pak subscription sales they probably will not.
Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Release Windows For Upcoming Switch Games, And It's Slim Pickings
Why is the next console being referred to as Switch 2? For all we know it could be a very different console.
