I don't know, man, I'd rather just a high-quality well-produced single-volume coffee table book. Or a series of them, each one on a different era or generation. This seems unnecessary.

My life for the Suda. Punk's not dead.
NHM 1 & 2, put them in me.

I've only heard bad things about this company, if it even exists at all.

Ah, Winona... She stole my heart.

Among other things.

You mean "anti-human terrorist group."

Slipstream on Steam seems to have already done this shtick, and did it better. I'd have picked up a Switch version of that.

And seriously, a game whose entire premise is, "the '80s" spells its decade wrong in the title? That's pretty amateur. Contractions ain't possessive.

Wake me when they bring back the Virtual Console and let us access our VC games we've already paid for on the same accounts we use to log into the Switch.

I'd imagine it's nothing more than a weak attempt to continue to troll us Metroid fans.
Go on, make an F-Zero joke next.

No. Release your entire damn game; then I'll think of buying it.

I don't know, man, it doesn't look like it has as much character anymore, somehow. Too bright, too clean.

Will still get it, at some point, again.

Not feeling the derivative art style (would've preferred if it'd been inspired by the RoboCop and/or/vs. Terminator comics rather than the games), but I'm still looking forward to this!

Playing the demo right now, and damn, dude, I can't even read the scrolling text in the newsticker, the framerate is that bad.

I like the idea, but the execution seems really off.

Dex is outstanding. Played the hell out of it on Steam, got every achievement, gifted copies to friends. Will probably grab the Switch version at some point.

You made a mistake: "30FPS" is supposed to appear in the "Cons" column.

It's also free on Steam and not fun there, either.

No thanks.
Also, I hope the irony of misspelling "losers" isn't lost on you.

Please be good!

Wait, so it's just a shameless Euro Truck clone? No thanks; original or bust. Truck off.

I think I'll stick with the Steam version, but I'm glad to see this game getting its. Could've used some H content, though.

Holy crap, yes. The 'Blade was among the greatest games the Wii ever had, and I will gladly pick it up again. I just hope switching (pun not intended) between party members isn't mapped the D-pad this time, so we can actually change dudes while moving. One of the reasons I always played with the Remote and 'Chuck instead of the Classic Controller.

The light-up spirit is a real nice touch.

Fantastic news! Westwood's Blade Runner and Grim Fandango ended the original Age of Adventure in incredible style, and I'm glad both will have a chance to return again.

The Blade Runner game beautifully blended the film and the book, with more than 10 different endings and surprising replayability. Westwood's done a man's job, sir.

Imagine having such trash taste in characters, being a yiffer, AND buying physical DLC. Atrocious!

Wake me when they finish the game and decide to sell the entire game in one dang purchase.

Nice to hear some good news for a change!

Good. I hope this means the permanent end of this advertising circlejerk.

I don't get the "dock isn't portable" bit. The official one and its charger get put in my bag along with the Switch in its case. How is that so hard? I would use the same bag to bring my 360, its power brick, and multiple controllers to the same friends' place — THAT was a hassle.

You already have bags at home. And a bag won't brick your system, either.

Outstanding. Props to these dudes. Might have to buy some and carry it around to pass out at conventions. Also, the packaging should explain the difference between Fighting Games and intentionally-over-the-top party games, too.

When you walk into that store to buy a brand new, sealed game as a gift for a friend, specifically telling that to the guy at the counter, who then slips a disc into an opened package saying it's the "store copy," and the next one you go tell tells you "it's cheaper used" and offers to shrink-wrap a used copy to try to fool the friend you want to buy the new, sealed game for, something is very wrong.

No, Reggie, what the gaming industry needs is the demise of the consistently anti-consumer direction it has been heading in since at least the original Xbox's generation, when corporations thought they could get away with disgusting practises like charging for patches and pretending that networking connectivity (a staple of the industry since at least the '90s) was in some way a premium feature requiring its own paid membership — and people fell for it.

And when that whole "used games are the devil!" fiasco came up, guess what, publishers still want to jump into bed with the same store where their custome-- sorry, Mindless Consumers sell their used games (for exploitative peanuts, I should add). All in order to secure them pre-order dollars (often to incomplete DLC storefronts), while pushing "service plans" and other unnecessary crap with high-pressure sales tactics.

No, if anything, the industry needs a damn crash so it can start over, because there's nothing "healthy" about it at this sorry point.

Don't worry, guys, the new pachinko machine will be out soon!

No thank you, sir. Wake when the Dreamcast versions come out.

I don't know. Seems a bit too all over the place. Plus I don't really care for the newspaper-ass puzzles, especially if we can't use a touchscreen. I can't quite tell if this is on-the-nose or trying too hard, but I think I'll sit this one out. If it was straight-up Ace Attorney in a sleazy '90s Hollywood, without a floating robot for some reason and those character design choices, I'd be all over this.

The tiny font won't be a problem, but the game's existing problems well, including but not limited to the cringe-inducing attempts at humour, the fact that you know the old sci-fi trope of corporations being evil (just like in real life) right off the bat and therefore might not want to have anything to do with them, and the unexplained assumption that your character has any reason to give a fraction of a damn about the frozen people on a space ship that he has no connection to. You're free, they're not — why should the player care?

Sure, if this allows for decent keyboard and mouse input.

This surprises people?

Unfortunately, the art style and character model remains the same. When using a Mii is your solution to making a character model look less boring, you've messed up.

And if Mii support isn't in this game, they've messed up.

Thought it was some kind of Horizon Chase clone but I'm glad it looks good.

I don't get it. Some cardboard cutout set up to market a game you've really already played (let's be honest) is enough to make you cry? Because of the tired state of the industry, I'd imagine.

I don't get who they want to market this at. Not that there's been any marketing, but you know what I mean.

Censoring outfits yet keeping in innuendo and stuff? Get outta here with that weak crap. We don't need stuff "modified" for the West, just translated.

Send these clowns all copies of a serious fighting game, not an intentionally-silly party game, and then at long last stop paying any attention to them.

This game was so bad, they pulled the 360 version during that system's lifespan. How the hell is it still around?

There's still absolutely no damn reason anywhere near good enough for us not to be able to access our Virtual Console libraries on our Switches.

I don't know, man. But I hope it's good!

Wow. I mean, their crap usually comes off as trying-too-hard-to-be-cute weeb pandering, but this looks even worse than usual.

People don't honestly still fall for that anticonsumer physical DLC fad, do they?

What if those of us who bought Link's Awakening on Virtual Console could access it and all of the other VC ROMs we bought... on our Switches?

All aboard the Anti-Consumer Express! Choo choo! Bring money!

More stuff we won't be able to own because the Virtual Console is over, eh?

If they're not using names and costumes that might lead people to think it's official, then what's the big deal? What is in any way infringing about driving around in go-karts?

Sounds like a case of "big company gets its way because big company." Good job, capitalism.

And you just know someone will defend this.
