I can't wait for Ashley to meet Sol Badguy. They are destined to meet now

@HammerKirby Ah alrighty. I guess this reprint is cheaper then, but its still kinda nothing. Like I'm pretty sure most people would of wanted something else to be the final game rather than Pirate's Curse again

Wow, what a nothing release! I don't say this to be mean but for a "totally final" 3DS release, this is pretty nothing when Pirate's Curse already has a wide spread physical release for 3DS that is arguably much better to grab for an affordable price and LRG could of had like a seminal 3DS EShop title that has never had a physical release, but they just put out the same game with a different piece of cover art and a collector's edition there isn't a reason to get if you got LRG's previous collector's editions. Yay

Ok this is definitely more up my alley from what I want to see Atari producing or commissioning as it just isn't a simple remake from the other "Recharged" line of titles and wants to try and make a genuine new title using the style of arcade and old titles and reformatting the gameplay to try and take it beyond a simple high-score title. Might check this out

Man they 100% should of put this on 4th of July. That would of been so fitting yet so funny. Jokes aside, really cool to see this coming over! Always nice to see Switch usually getting a complete edition of a current gen title. Usually means that if its coming out later it might arguably be the best version to pick up for people who haven't played it yet

I'm not surprised that it has grown a lot in sales over the holidays from sales and stuff because Mario + Rabbids not only did well for being a launch window game, but also did well because it was Mario game with usual Ubisoft level discounts. Most people don't care for most Mario spin-offs in proportion to what the mainline games do (aside from Kart and Party), so having a Mario game with Rabbids or even being a good strategy game isn't what brings in the potential 10+ million of what Ubisoft got with the original, its the fact consumers see a Mario game put on sale for $20 compared to the other spin-offs that are still full priced, and are willing to buy it more just from that

Pretty cool to see that the UK charts have platform splits now! I bet it will provide lots of useful info on what games are selling on what consoles to get a better understanding of the current market even more

@FishyS. To be fair, MK11 Ultimate doesn't have any sort of boxed release for Switch. Most people that might want MK11 on Switch are either buying the base game physically, or just buying it digitally

Man this collection was just such a weird thing for LRG to do and I feel like they did it just because they could instead of spending time on literally anything else with the Carbon Engine. Hopefully the Jurassic Park Collection doesn't suffer the same fate of being available for such a short time

Sega has such an amazing back catalog of series they could do I'm down for almost anything, but of the ones announced I'm most excited for Jet Set and Shinobi. They both seem to be the most stylish and far along and have so much potential. Jet Set does still seem early but if they get the movement perfect this time mixed with the level design, it's easily going to be the best of the trilogy. Shinobi already looks fantastic, which is nothing new for LizardCube who seems to be making it, and just has such a great style. I lived the part with Joe Musashi riding the dog along-side the huge titan. Absolutely breathtaking

This is pretty awesome! I wasn't sure who Digital Eclipse was going to do next but this is a pretty awesome thing to do. The fact they even have a game from the Konix Multisystem and so many different titles makes this a must buy for me

Oh boy, how did I guess this from a mile away

Konami is 100% gonna try to get people to double dip by making the physical version exclusive to Limited Run Games

Honestly, I can understand why Atari would want to focus a lot of retro stuff, considering that's where most of their notaritiy comes from, but I think if Atari did try to make a push into more proper modern releases I bet they could have some cool stuff

Aw man, this is really heart breaking to see, because I really wanted to see the story mode fleshed out and finished along side the dlc, it's even how I was able to convince my brother to get the game, but I can imagine the work that it took to try and get it in a good state next to all of the time and money they needed to keep the online running and to develop the dlc characters, I bet it became a little too costly overtime, and I bet Modus wasn't really to invest more into Mane 6. I'm glad that the new characters will be dropping both at once, and maybe if there os enough support it could come back. Probably won't, but I can always dream

I know Among Us became a really mainstream game, but it's nice to see that they definitely have been grounded to their indie roots. Doing cool crossovers like this with other indie games will be awesome because I bet this will help put many amazing games on the map for many many younger kids who might just know Among Us, but see these crossovers and might want to try the games they're from

@LikelySatan Oh don't worry dude I love fighters on Switch too. Literally only got into fighters because the Switch has my now favorite fighter that got me into the genre, when before I got into them just a few years ago before I got to High School, I simply thought I wouldn't be able to play them properly because I couldn't do motion inputs lol. Now it's one of my favorite genres. But we are in a minority of hardcore fighter fans when most people's only fighter has been Smash, so that's why I even mentioned analog stick lol

@DestructoDisk I know, but I was just assuming he was more casual and meant analog stick. Although I guess my point does still apply, as arcade sticks are mainly used by people who are already fighting game fanatics, aka, most people who aren't playing Switch

@msvt To answer all 3 questions, 1. KOF has always used a mix of more fast paced 4 button fighters and Street Fighter's punch and kick set up, as KOF has light punch and kick, and heavy punch and kick. 2. If anything, MK is an outlier in traditional 2d fighters, as basically every single 2d fighter uses motion inputs. And 3. Most people prefer to play on dpad (including me) in fighters. There are some people who play on analog stick, but it's largely recommended that dpad is your control method

Rainbow Road Wii is my fav mostly because I have such good memories with it and it makes the transition so well, but every course here is great in my opinion, even the Tour tracks. Arguably the best Wave is right here

@Waluigi451 Its probably because the licences for the dlc tracks haven't expired yet and there are people who haven't bought them all yet while the game itself probably had their contracts expire and would rather have any new Taiko purchasers get the newest game

I love The Behemoth and their games a lot so I'm very excited to get this eventually. I still have my copy of the original for Gamecube so I might sell my copy and get the HD bundle because the Gamecube version is selling for decently high right now lol

@Clyde_Radcliffe Nah man the homies are having their moment
But also probably that the Kirby to the right is pushing the other Kirby away from the explosion, but still lets the homies have their moment

@Waluigi451 Quite a few actually. My main game I mention is Them's Fightin' Herds. Has amazing netcode and seamless crossplay in the pixel lobbies. Power Rangers Battle for the Grid have full crossplay as well. And of course not to mention lots of the major live service games like Fortnite, Rocket League, Fall Guys, and other major paid games like Minecraft and Among Us

@GoshJosh You're forgetting the fact that the PC version of the game was broken at launch for almost an entire month

Honestly cross-play is probably a fever dream in the eyes of the Switch version considering the improvements that still need to be made to make MK1 Switch worthy of the price its at, not to mention that MK11 on Switch, which although a great version, has no cross-play functionality

It honestly does suck that the team weren't able to make the game be as successful as they needed it to be because Omega Strikers is an awesome game, but it live-service games are just so hard to break into with only so many games being able to hold people's attention. I hope that the next game Odyssey creates is more so designed at being a full force game from the get go and maybe future content in the future (a fighting game with these characters would slap hard) because it does seem the team really cares about the characters and world they created and just wanted to make a super fun game with a competitive spirit (which I think they did do well) but just didn't hold the momentum they needed to keep it afloat for longer. Happy that they are still keeping it up so people can still play and enjoy it for the foreseeable future

It's neat that Atari is letting Digital Eclipse continue the Gold Master series, I'm still really interested in what they have for the future. But I honestly can't blame Atari for wanting to get Digital Eclipse. When they make a collection like Atari 50 and make your sometimes "Eh" line up of games look historic and amazing, you got something special on your hands.

I have a feeling Mario is definitely gonna be outselling Spiderman 2 in the long run in these charts. Many Sony titles get bought up right away and then sales tank but main Mario titles always hold steady spots on the best sellers charts

I have to go with Europe's art because of how meticulous it looks, but both the others look great as well. Wario Land Shake It is just a beautiful game overall

My brother has a lot a of the Splatoon amiibos so I know for a fact he's ready to pick these up right away

@5th313ment You make it sound like giving people basic human rights and respect is a bad thing

This is great to see another amazing modern port like this. I haven't played any of the games yet but I've always wanted to so I might pick this up later on sale

This is like digging up a corpse in broad day light and no one batting an eye until someone notices a huge hole in the grave yard

I'm glad this is over because I'm just tired of seeing news about this. Now we can just let it be

The fact that Stardew Valley is so big now that there can be a whole concert tour for it is insane. Really cool to see something like this

Honestly I think this might be a better use for a Battle Royale for Pac-Man. Pac-Man 99 was fun and I'm glad it had single player content, but it just didn't mesh as well with the pre-existing 99 format Tetris used, I think shutting that down and bringing this over to other platforms is probably the right move. Very interested to check this out

It's awesome to see that it's coming out soon! I always love The Behemoth and have been very eagerly awaiting this!

I only buy digital for games that are either only digital, or they have huge sales that make it kinda pointless in picking up the physical version. My stance is that I won't buy anything digital above $30 or if its only digital. The cost of buying something digitally at $40 or above makes it feel like I'm throwing my money to the void when I have a game I can hold in my hands for the end of time

@Dm9982 Oh perfect! Thank you for the clarification! I saw that it said Internet was required for some reason on the EShop but that felt weird so I had to do some digging first but wasn't able to find anything. Thank you very much for the help!

This actually seems to be a super impressive port for the system! The fact that Borderlands art style is so much better to being subject to downgrades makes this much more worthwhile as both a portable and home version. I'm thinking of picking it up but the EShop listing says that it requires an internet connection to play which feels odd. If anyone bought it please let me know if it can be played offline. That's the only thing that's holding me back from wanting to pick it up

With all of the villagers that exists, Lego could probably make a killing off of a blind bag series for these guys. The designs of them look really cute and I bet they could make some awesome sets for this

@anoyonmus I think the original Hitman of the original trilogy isn't the only one that would be able to make it over, I just think it would end up being the easiest for IO Interactive

I've always wanted to play the Hitman games because I've always seen some of the insanity that you can get away with. Of course most of that has been the modern titles and those are just super expensive to get the full experience for, but having one of the older ones natively on Switch would be awesome. Definitely gonna be keeping an eye on this one

How does Tim Sweeny say they don't make enough money to support all of their employees when they literally have not only one of if not the biggest game of the past decade, but also easily the biggest 3rd party game engine for most developers

@KnightsTemplar I see you have not played X or GX

@LikelySatan My guess is probably not considering that it seems that they're just putting the normal retail edition inside a box with all of these extra bonuses. Although I'm not 100% sure. Maybe it would be a good idea to ask Pix'n Love or Sega of Europe support to get the answer

@kennykenny LRG's pre-orders are open pre-orders so that everyone who wants a copy can get a pre-order, allowing LRG to know how many copies to print after the pre-order ends

While it is nice that these are finally getting modern physical editions, the fact that Sega has only done these through LRG just shows that LRG's size allows big companies like Sega to bwe lazy and not have to make a wide-spread physical release, even if only in Japan

This just feels like extra stock Sega had laying around and thought the best way to get rid of it would be to try and get collectors to buy the game again for the third time
