Nice. It's like a third person Mirror's Edge, except EA didn't horribly mishandle it.

Perfect.

The car needs to explode in a jaw-dropping, fiery inferno when it crashes. Then the girl that gets thrown out, make her explode too.

I'd be so okay if they get Skies of Arcadia and Prince of Persia The Sands of Time on the service.

Or even Lost Kingdoms 1 and 2. They're such under-rated and pretty much forgotten pair of rpg's for the Gamecube.

Super Mario Iliad: The Trojan Wars.

The only logical follow-up.

@danzoEX
Spawn looked the look, but both he and Heihachi play like butt.

Oh, man. That will definitely effect purchasing decisions.

I used to buy amiibo cause they were somewhat cheap and looked nice with the benefit of a few game functions. Now, it's like you have to be fully commited.

It depends on the game whether they're aiming for realism or not. There's a very good reason story-wise why Xenoblade X has no fall damage, and it's thrilling to escape a battle by hurling yourself off a steep edge, knowing that you'll live.

But having fall damage does have a better sense of danger and risk, making everything you do crucial to your survivability. Imagine the riots occurring if From Software decides to remove fall damage from their games.

@TimelessJubilee Renewed licensing costs for The Witcher, Nier Automata and Samurai Shodown.

Link always was the best of the three guest characters. Too bad the roster will never be complete. Link's projectiles are so good, I always try to end the match with an arrow to the opponent.

@Anti-Matter Try reading the information that's already in front of you first.

Nothing new for this week. But I did get Power Rangers Battle for the Grid with a big discount with nearly all the dlc, after getting hyped and inspired when I watched a tournament of it.

Game has really changed from it's initial release, and totally nolonger deserves the initial scores.

@Vyacheslav333 I said we don't mention it here! >:U

@Vyacheslav333 There's a reason why I only mentioned seven when there are eight games on the collection.

SFZ3 Upper has it's drawbacks but deserves it's place. There's one game that both pros and casuals hate, and we do not mention THAT game here.

So hype and excited to get my hands on Capcom vs SNK 2 and play some good solid arcade fun with both Power Stone games.

The seven games in this collection deserve so much more love.

Quirky, niche indie titles have become very synonymous with Nintendo, ever since the Wii U years. So, it's not that surprising that many indie studios make an effort to put their games on Switch even with the looming Switch 2 release.

One Yunobo. One Riju. One Tulin.

For Sidon... I'LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK!!!

Since it's about the Japanese public, I say use their giant robots, their teenage magical girls and their talking pet mystical beasts.

@JohnnyMind
I'm just assuming. I could be wrong. Hogwarts Legacy on Switch 1 seems like an entirely different build, and they may be using the PS5/PC build for Switch 2.

Plus, with WB Games, nothing makes them more happy than people purchasing the same game for a different console at full price.

Given those prices, Switch 2 looks mighty attractive now. Those hikes certainly won't entice people who are still on-the-fence with a PS5 purchase.

Woah. What's the sudden surge in Hogwarts Legacy?

I'm assuming the Switch 1 version is heavily discounted because it can't be upgraded into the Switch 2 version.

@Spider-Kev
For context, not only is the game a bland-looking remake of game no one played. To many (including myself), the Nintendo Switch 2 direct suffered a severe lag that left people stuck on a screenshot of the game. It was long enough that many missed the live view of Enter The Gungeon 2 and Starseeker, two games that look far more interesting.

Of course, it's not the game's fault at all, but the negative emotion has attached itself to it.

Look up the comments on the game's trailer and you'll see the dozens of people talk about their experience with this.

I do so wish that the developers follow through with their desire to make a Xenoblade X sequel.

The possibilities are endless because it is known that there are more Earth ships traveling throughout space. Xenoblade X only follows the story of the Los Angeles ship and the fate of the other city ships are never said. The stories and scenarios you can make with those are so open for creativity.

A hard pass.

What's confusing is that Nintendo could've easily just made a wheelchair basketball game and made it bright and colorful with expressive Mii-like characters playing in a park or beach or city court.

Whoever gave the idea to use Tron as the theme, deserves to sit in a corner and think about what they did.

Seriously, Welcome Tour is like reading an instruction manual for your child's bedtime story.

And we ALL know why we hate Survival Kids.

I'd be disappointed should Link become playable. Best to give Zelda and others bigger roles in the tale.

And make a male counterpart for Zelda like what they did with Linkle.

Kinda obvious, I'm more interested if they found a way to use the GBA content on the original Gamecube, and if they do release Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD then they'll need to remove or rework the Miiverse content.

Will Kit and Krysta be there to entertain everyone with their plastic smiles? I bet Nintendo Life would love that idea.

These two are like a really unfunny recurring joke on this site.

Why are we still here? Just to suffer?

At least those prices are not as bad as the PS5 scalping prices. They were as high as $1500.

It IS cute. Will probably be 10 times more cute when it tranforms into it's kaiju form and tears your face off.

8/10.

Strong selling points, but doesn't have the wow factor like the original Switch presentation, that tells me "I must have it!"
Definitely expect people to hold off and wait until a better line-up comes or what the experts think of the actual hardware.

Everyone knew Switch 2 was coming. A new Tomodachi Life was something many wanted, but there was no news or signs that one was being developed.

Simply put, people were more pleasantly surprised by the reveal.

THANK! YOU! Sometimes Japanese devs try so hard to cater to the west that they forget that many western gamers want the Japanese charm, style and essence that a western dev could nier replicant- I mean... never replicate.

Amazing how third-party developers are still putting out games for Switch 1. The real question is; how much of a downgrade will it take to make it functional.

@Zach777 People are just over-emotional to a point of being irrational, especially online. It is what it is, happens all the time with practically every video game.

@Runex2121 Very understandable. I actually expected that most people who loved Xenoblade 2 and 3 would hate this game. Xenoblade X was created when nobody expected that Xenoblade would become a series, hence the design, theme and staples of the series aren't properly in-place yet. With the establishments placed on Xenoblade 2 and 3, Xenoblade X is considered the black sheep of the series.

@BlackenedHalo Exactly.

@Zach777 True, but kinda understandable. Everyone always has that moment when they excitedly buy a game only to realize it's not at all what they had expectations for. Some probably bought this cause of all the hype and praise, only to realize it's not to their liking.

@BlackenedHalo So, not the story? Characters? World-building? Exploration? Side quests?

Whatever makes you happy then.

@BlackenedHalo Okay... it's still not coming back though..

Also, "This is what made the OG great." C'mon, dude...

@BlackenedHalo Some restriction in any game is always needed. Giving the player freedom is always something developers should consider, but never ever total freedom. Y'know, like in nearly every other video game.

@BlackenedHalo So? You're point is? It's not coming back. And new players wouldn't even know it was ever there, shows it was never truly needed. Complain to Monolith Soft.

@BlackenedHalo They are facts, that are now out-dated as the definitive edition has proven. Like how it was a fact that the Earth was the center of the solar system.

@BlackenedHalo to YOU. Don't mistake your opinion as fact. I'm just happy to get to play the game in a better state, and even happier that more people get to experience it.
