We already had a rumor on what I want: The Disney Afternoon Collection. 😊

I wondered if he was just looking to retire fully, but this doesn’t surprise me

Those jobs are pretty exclusive, but somebody gets to do them. Congrats Doug and Carla! 🙂

Reggie was unique, and was a public Western face during the slower Wii U days.

Doug was great, and handled things behinds the scenes during COVID.

Devon will have her own style and challenges, and will do great! 😊

I am here for the eShop version, but hope there is a physical release for those that want it. 🙂

It should be an easy sales pitch, but it was probably difficult to get Disney, Capcom, and Digital Eclipse back to the negotiating table.

@JohnnyMind @Not_Soos @MarzoriuM It will be this collection’s 9th anniversary in April. 😊

@MarzoriuM I understand why it skipped the Wii U. However, it should have been released for the 3DS, and then later on Switch after the Switch proved to be successful.

@JohnnyMind Indeed! 🥳🎉🥂

LEGO has long transitioned to be a rich man’s hobby.

@OorWullie I finally finished the NES Contra, but I had to use the Konami Code for the extra lives. 😬

@arekdougy Gotcha! That clarifies it. Thanks! 😊

Seems like the toggle switch on the LEGO builds wouldn’t work correctly if the cartridge top was centered. Builders should notice the problem, right?

I’ll need to buy my own to investigate. 🙂

I wonder if people have been opting for the digital version, but that could be said about all of the games on the list. 🤔

@Lord It depends on the IP owners. Some Taito games go on sale. Qix has gone on sale twice, first at 50% and later at 30%.

Some games have only gone on sale once, like some of the Nintendo titles (in 2023 at 30% off).

Many games on my wish list have never been discounted, like Frogger.

With the variety of titles, everyone probably has a few that are ‘must owns’.

For games not yet released, I would pay full price for Gorf (Midway) and Gyruss (Konami).

As for already released games, Volfied (Taito) is a hidden gem (which is really Qix 2).

And Capcom has Capcom Arcade Stadium where individual titles are $2 and they have bundled options too.

Hamster deserves to get paid, so I don’t expect to see games for $2. However, $8 is a premium price for a single title.

Discounts are good, but are controlled by the IP owners. Most of the Arcade Archive titles have not gone on sale (or have gone on sale only once).

Taito games, though, do go on sale. So there is hope for this one.

Dang. I missed out on the Mario Picross ones.

@PlatinumTour You are right, too. It was an incentive for parents. Nintendo could probably boost console sales late in the life cycle by rereleasing the games as cheaper Selects titles (and the console was usually discounted by then too).

Like I said before, the eShop is now where the discounts should be on old first party titles.

@Exerion76 @PlatinumTour Nintendo’s Selects was a way to bring back older games to store shelves. This is less needed now since all of these games are perpetually on the eShop.

To the point, though, yes - the older eShop games should get the Selects treatment with permanent discounts (or frequent discounts).

Maybe we will get another GameCube game drop for Christmas. Mario Sunshine? 🤔

After the new year, I will play something random like Welcome Tour as my first 2026 game. 🤓

@Liam_Doolan @HammerGalladeBro @Dr_Corndog @NintendoBMA @MathByThePixel The main theme morphs into a Spaghetti Western type song (a la The Ecstasy of Gold from The Good, The Bad, The Ugly).

I am ready to ride Vi-O-La across the desert! 😊❤️

“Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world” 🎵
— Cat Stevens

“I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl”. 🎵

I am ready to ride across the desert in this Space Western. 😊

The music in the top trailer is very Spaghetti Western like. I love it!

I am ready to be Samus in a Space Western riding across the desert. 😊❤️

And Arcade Archives BOMB BEE released today.

@joey302 Discounts seem to come from the IP owners. I’ve seen Namco and Taito games discounted. One time, some of the Nintendo titles. Like you said, though, many never get discounted.

And Arcade Archives GALACTIC WARRIORS released today.

@rio_j I totally agree, but they have 1.36 billion reasons to make another animated Mario movie (💰).

@thenikdavies Rosalina: Scarlett Johansonn or Sabrina Carpenter.

@UpsideDownRowlet Diddy Kong Racing will be the last to arrive.

@World Gotcha. I just haven’t seen them listed here on the weekly releases since Munch Mobile a few weeks ago.

I don’t have time for more than one console, but I would really like to play the Uncharted games someday. 😊

When was the most recent Arcade Archives game released?

@JohnnyMind @Markiemania95 I was thinking of Super Mario RPG’s end credits too. The fireworks are not until the end, but the whole scene is a great nod to Disneyland’s Main Street Electrical Parade. 😊

The demand is like for Hamilton tickets.

They should do what Hamilton did. Make a video special that shows all of the exhibits. Or make a Switch 2 museum tour.

@Serpenterror Yup, unfortunately.

I am hoping for a 10th anniversary edition in 2027 (but I won’t hold my breath). 😊

I wish nothing but the best for Digital Eclipse. I have faith that they will work out the bugs. Please get the rest that the team deserves and needs.

However, one day, I would still like them to release the Disney Afternoon ‘Legacy’ Collection for Switch. 😊

@Truegamer79 And if you are looking for a more modern and lengthy experience, then give Dragon Quest 11 a try.

@Truegamer79 If you don’t mind spending the money, definitely go for Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake. 😊

You can always sell the physical version after you finish it or if you don’t like it.

I would like a completely LEGO version of Animal Crossing. 😊

@foursider @SplatRay001 The first issue of Nintendo Power has an article about people in Japan lining up to buy Dragon Quest III. 😊❤️

Bring instruction manuals to NSO, please.

And from Jim’s other article: Also, BULK CRAFTING!!!!! 😊❤️

Nintendo buried the headline.

Thanks for mentioning it Jim: Also, BULK CRAFTING!!!!! 😊❤️

@Magician @Wewewi My brother and I had discovered a piece of the map that was good for finding Gold Golems. 😊

I just started Dark Moon HD. 😊

I’ll play this again. 😊

The 3DS version is also a very good port.

@RCGamer I would like NSO to add instruction manual scans. Let me read the manuals on my TV or on the Switch screen.
