Fighting_Game_Loser

I can imagine there are people who have just clicked on this to just vote 1's on everything because they just want to hate on Virtual Boy, but I have really enjoyed what I've played so far, being Teleroboxer (which isn't here for some reason so I'll say it's an 8 here) and Galactic Pinball. Galactic Pinball is a very solid pinball title for the time with a lot of fun gimmicks and it's OST is very good. Teleroboxer honestly is super underrated, I feel like it has such a cool style and plays pretty well, I just wish it could of been a bit more and a little less punishing with the AI, but it was still a treat with how charming and demanding it got. I plan to try all the others soon enough, and I know VB Wario Land will be good, but I figure that all the others will be sleeper hits as well

Gen 5 is my first and favorite gen of Pokemon, I know everyone used to say "Why do they have such stupid designs as a trash bag and ice cream! It was so much better in Gen 1!" when those same people forget to mention the likes of Muk, Voltorb, and Magnamite. Not say they are inherently bad Pokemon, but more so that I feel like it was always kind of a bad faith argument. Actual Pokemon wise this gen has some of my favs. Victini, the Zorua line, Scraggy, Liligant, Whimsicot, Cofagregus, Axew, Stunfisk, Genesect, Meloetta, Munna, Kyurem, so many amazing designs, although my heart will always belong to Snivy and it's line, my first starter Pokemon with one of the most charming designs imo. It'll always at least be top 3 for me probably.

Didn't know a beta was happening! Thanks for the heads up NL!

Really hard to say, because Gen 2 honestly has so many great Pokemon and hasn't been milked to death unlike Gen 1. Decided to go with Shuckle, I love them so much they're a silly creature

I actually had Playgrounds 2 for a while, but man it was super bogged down by just being a 2K game. The unlocks were so tedious and barely had any content to keep me engaged when I tried it. Wish the original Playgrounds was still around since from what I heard it was just inherently better of a package

Little disappointed that the Adventure mode is about the same as Aces, which I thought was really lame since that game actually had no other modes at launch, and even now really, but I do hope at least the other modes they showed add some time to it. Probably will have to wait despite my initial excitement, but hopefully when I pick it up it will be at least close to Power Tennis.

@HingryHuppo @KoopaTheGamer I do agree with that the physical releases are definitely more pricey, but considering the normal Switch physical is also 2× as much, I think it might just depend on how close of pairity of prices we can get to Switch 1. I will also say that you can get the Switch 2 version for a cheaper price, as Red Art Games do have discount codes that are completely active, like 20% all purchases with the code WELCOME20. I used that when buying my copy, but since I'm American, shipping price got it back to 50 Euros, which was about $60 for me, so don't be silly like me unless you really wanted a physical Switch 2 version like me or live in Europe and don't have to pay at least as high of shipping.

Honestly super surprised to see Indy on a cart, especially after they didn't even put it fully on Disc for the other consoles. Very excited about that! Might have to consider it if we don't have it change to be a Game-Key Card

Very cool to see Relink coming, have been interested in it for a while now. I just wish Versus Rising would come to Switch 2 as well

This got me so hyped. I'm so glad Konami finally did a Bomberman collection, probably going to try and get the physical version

I got a feeling this version is also going to be a little sloppy, I know one of those ports when I see some hella pixelated shadows

This almost sounds like an Aliens Colonial Marines situation again. Game by Gearbox is announced for a Nintendo platform to be released soon after initial launch and is said to be close to other versions, said versions launch and have a multitude of issues, Nintendo version is delayed only to vanish into the ether

Labo VR might of been one of the first games I preordered alongside the physical version of Snipperclips, and I got some good fun out of it, but it just collected dust with everything eventually, and now that I have a Switch 2, it's just sitting in a tote as I procrastinate on finding a way to sell it.

I guess that shows why Sega didn't make much of a deal out of Crossworlds selling a million, because they did just think that the Sonic movies were going to immediately sell people on a full price kart racer. I think it shows how different Sega's expectations for Sonic are from the fan's expectations in what it means to be a huge success, not to mention all of the marketing Sega did up to its release

I would say out of everything announced right now Mario Tennis is my most anticipated title because I'm on the hopium that they're gonna hit a home run with Mario Tennis and have it be as good as Power Tennis. Everything else I'm at the very least interested in but not crazy over right now until more info is given like specific release dates or more info

Tomadachi Life hasn't always been my type of game, but in terms of a solo game direct, they showed what they needed to so I gave it an 8. Still interested in checking it out if I can

I've been waiting a long while for this to finally come over to Switch, they originally said Winter last year was the estimated date, but thankfully since there's cross-play and single player modes, I'm very excited to pick this up when I can!

Oh my goodness these Mii's can be so gay and nonbinary popping off hard rn

I'm so excited they're releasing Zero Racers and Dragon Hopper. I have been hoping those games found the light of day for years and them being released officially is so amazing. Very excited to get my hand on my headset in February

Metroid Prime 2 makes a lot of sense for NSO, Pikmin 2 does not considering it is already on Switch natively without much different than in the Gamecube original

A potential Nintendo Direct in February? Say it ain't so! Anyways in recent news the winter season is cold as always...

Damn all of the old guard are leaving now, next you're telling me Koji Kondo and Miyamoto are gonna retire right after the Mario Galaxy Movie releases

Man I had no idea Headcannon had this in the works, it looks right up my alley! I have a soft spot for some of the experimental style of early PS1 games and stuff and it looks like this fits into that niche mold very well. Going to check out the demo when I can and put it on my wishlist!

I can't believe it took them so long to bring this over. I just thought this was never going to happen, if it in fact does

Definitely kinda sounds like to me that the Switch version is definitely going to continue to lag behind the main console version. Unfortunate but makes sense considering they are already stretching it in terms of the PS4 and Xbox One versions in terms of timelines for future development

I do hope that this is the case. I understand the circumstances that have led us to GKC but it definitely is hamper on most games that are full retail price for physicals I would want to get. Only one I have gotten was SF6, and that's mainly because I love SF6 a lot and still want to own something tangible of it (not to mention that it's going to get bigger in size anyways since it's an on going fighting game so having everything on the card now wouldn't even make sense really)

@Nanoline52 Exactly. I remember seeing that from watching Atrioc and yeah it's insane the mental gymnastics the government takes in trying to make their data seem good, when it in fact shows the opposite. But I guess it's really in the benefit of companies, including those in the game sphere, "if dollar amount goes up, then more success!" instead of people actively buying and using things.

I don't think this is completely surprising because I bet a lot of people are very squeezed in the current economy, so I can imagine these sales very easily have to do with that, especially with the negative publicity basically all systems this year have gotten around price stuff

Been very interested in this game since I really like its style so very cool it's coming to Switch

Damn Nintendo really just decided to go a little crazy with NSO drops here, and with a Gamecube game we weren't expecting no less! Definitely gonna be checking it out. I love Treasure's games and while I know Wario World is not their best, they sure as hell made the craziest Wario game so I'm very excited to try it out

Nintendo has definitely made sure to have N64's library be the best it can be with Switch this generation. We literally are getting games we probably would of never gotten in previous Virtual Console generations and it makes me feel very happy they're using their money to make them accessible

Yes Nintendo, I do want to make baby Metroid ice cubes to put in my water bottle. Please do not deny me this privilege.

I see most of European gamers don't have good tastes 🥀

THAT'S MY GOAT RIGHT THERE!!!

Very glad it's doing well so far. I do realize that Japan is probably Kirby's biggest market, alongside Air Riders being more niche, but if it at least sells around a million or 2, I see that as a huge win imo

Kirby Air Riders so good Nintendo knew they had to finally bring the team in-house (and probably because of Smash and Namco just not wanting them anymore but still)

My patience to finally play Automata on Switch has paid a vertue.

Too bad I will still probably be procrastinating and play something else before then lol

Considering they were able to get Star Wars Outlaws to 24 gigs I'm surprised that they weren't able to get Shadows lower in size. But I still think they're gonna turn in another good port here judging by Outlaws

Personal GOTY. It is so ridiculous fun and addicting in all mode online and off. And I still feel like I have so much left to do.

@gcunit I think Supergiant is just doing the Switch 2 cart because since it's an upgrade pack, it will play on Switch 1 as well, and since their physicals are more collector oriented and higher than their digital prices, they probably figured it was best to focus their resources on this one version

Interesting that Team Battle was a last minute inclusion. Obviously glad we have this update to get it but it's always surprising to know what features just barely make it in before the finish line

@YunoboCo She could here the entire time. Just hiding until we start playing

I have only played Donkey Kong so my vote goes to it

I would always like to get these, but the fact that I always have to pay for shipping is a deal breaker for me for all of these physical My Nintendo Rewards. Like why would I pay shipping for these cheap lackluster rewards? I honestly wish they were more Platinum Points so that way I didn't have to deal with said shipping costs

I can't believe there's an official Mario soyjack now. Insane reality we live in

City Trial's connection issues were the only real snag I had with the Test Ride last weekend so glad this already seemingly got fixed! Don't know if I'll be able to play really this weekend (got work unfortunately) but I can't wait to jump back in at the very most on launch day!

The fact that people are actually voting for Dragon Power instead of Dragon Ball NES's cover art is insane

I feel really bad for Digital Eclipse, because I have no doubt that they wanted to make this collection fantastic, but I can't help but feel like WB somehow got their fingers into this and made the Halloween release date be set in stone. DE has also put out a lot of stuff in just the past year or 2 so I think they might be running a bit thin to me. Hopefully they're able to fix the collection quickly enough without destroying their mental health and stuff.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant I would say don't let the SF 30th Collection keep you away from a lot of these other collections and re-releases, because 95% of the time now they're really good, especially from Capcom directly (MvC Collection is a must buy imo). I just think it's weird Digital Eclipse had this issue again because from what I've heard from when they worked in SNK's Samurai Showdown Collection, that one was basically perfect for what it needed, unless DE had help from Code Mystics to get the online and emulation better

Can't believe instead of making Big Man a villager they freaking killed him and made his corpse a seat 😭😭😭

All that I've learned is that we can no longer expect Directs when Nintendo can now be consistently making these announcements out of the complete blue
