@Ulanda Samus Amiibo gives you an extra energy tank and the EMMI Amiibo gives 10 extra missles, which may be quite a deal for completionists and sucks more than the Loftwing Amiibo tbh

Super Mario Sunshine has a ton of potential, but it's so full of bugs and glitches that it's a pain to complete. Stuff like the Pachinko Shine that made me break the left joycon's rail out of frustration have soured my experience enough.
I was glad when Fludd "died", I always found it annoying with its voice and awkward controls, quite literally a d**chebag

@nessisonett San Andreas at least is timeless, this looks like a garbage mobile game. Should have ported X-Plane to Switch as that has more to offer than this

Thank God I live in Romania where people only play Fifa on PlayStation and barely heard of Nintendo

Stealthlord66 is probably the only player remaining on Switch

@StefanN it’s alright, Bedrock edition is plaguing every platform from mobile to PC. The previous console editions were much more stable and not full of Marketplace junk by Microsoft. Switch port is better to me than nothing I guess, after years of playing on iOS with missing features from the other platforms

@Yosher Maybe because it's the only handheld version of it that doesn't totally suck, like the mobile ports with touch controls, and has full parity with the other platforms

@Dirty0814 I think you are onto something. One of the reasons I love the Switch is that it managed in just 4 years to compile a lot of classics that I loved into one huge library. I have a bookshelf full of great physical games, third-parties and almost all of the high profile first-party releases from Nintendo.
Unless Nintendo unveils a more powerful Switch-like console in the next generation, with full backwards compatibility, I will probably stop at the Switch, as it definetly won my gamer heart unlike any other system I played in my life

@outsider83 I perfectly understand your feelings, maybe I was a bit too direct in my comment earlier and I apologize. For me at least the last Direct was exciting, having a new Warioware and Metroid after so many years have made me feel excited again about Nintendo releases. I’m also happy that after 10 years I got to enjoy Skyward Sword at its fullest potential (not the greatest classic Zelda game ever, but a whole lot better than if I played it on Wii back in the day).
Problem is that the days of seemingly infinite creativity during the PS2 and GameCube era are long gone, as the costs of game dev have risen too much and that makes AAA game companies to commit to predictable releases, sequels and remasters for the new generations (kind of like in the movie industry). I miss those days as many probably do here, and the only way to relieve a bit of those wonderful times is through either remasters or the tributes paid by indies.
As for the AAA releases, I am sick of open-world games, I miss the fleshed-out linear experiences.
Also maybe if you feel frustrated about anything related to gaming nowadays, I think you should analize the possibility of, maybe… growing out of gaming. I’m saying this as I also feel a bit the same, the Switch might be my final gaming investment before moving on

@BloodNinja It's alright, I was impressed by the response. I wasn't having hard feelings or anything ))
It's hard not to make jokes about stealing in a heist game

@BloodNinja Touche =))

Imagine stealing other players' levels and share them as your own

@outsider83 Because unlike you, not everyone wants to play the insert generic M-Rated AAA open-world survival shooter rpg with overly realistic graphics in 8K over and over again

God, Squeenix is dumb as heck. Why did they choose mobile over console is beyond me...

The Game Boy probably was designed to resist almost anything, like a true Cold War-era piece of tech.
I can imagine it surviving a nuclear war between America and USSR

While I find the idea of Valve dethroning Nintendo as the king of handhelds hilarious and ridiculous, I appreciate the competition as it always leads towards innovation.
I still find the Deck ugly and it doesn't look as comfy to use as the Switch tho, however I find its internals interesting

At least 2K considers the Switch to be on par with PS4 and Xbox One generation-wise, unlike certain devs

@Mr-Fuggles777 Probably Nintendo wants the Zelda momentum going strong, as it's the second most popular franchise so they clearly want as much money as possible (quick mention, I'm not fully supportive of their pricing schemes, only bought SS HD because I missed the opportunity to play it in 2011 and by then I just grew out of the Wii fever, and I'm glad I didn't back then).
Meanwhile Metroid has always been an underdog of Nintendo's IPs and never had the commercial appeal of Mario or Zelda. That's why I think if they were to re-release the Prime trilogy on Switch, they wouldn't pull the same stunt like they afford with Zelda (separate releases), as it would probably hurt the commercial performance of the games. There are way more people who would buy anything Zelda compared to Metroid stuff.
I see Nintendo doing a minimum effort of changing the UI, AI upscaling and some small adjustments to Corruption's motion controls, like they did with Mario Galaxy.

@Mr-Fuggles777 your comment makes absolute no sense. By your logic, Mario 3D All-Stars would have had only Mario 64 and Sunshine, while Super Mario Galaxy would have been released separately at full price…
A full-on-cartridge trilogy release is definitely possible as the games themselves are not huge

Also the leakers should lay off the constipation pills. They really got us with their anal leaks full of rumours during the last few years, like the Switch pr0

I hope Tantalus considers 60fps for Twilight Princess HD if they decide to port it to Switch. Same goes for WindWaker if Nintendo decides to delegate them for such a task.

@ARPK insert Vin Diesel family meme

Sounds like a shmup on drugs to be honest

They should remake Other M, but this time featuring D A B A B Y as "the baby"

@ok1 As in, Metroid Dread will not be enhanced in any way on OLED, as it has the same guts as the regular Switch, and the bigger OLED screen will have lower pixel denisty than regular or Lite so you may get some distortions here and there due to 720p res

@BloodNinja It doesn't creep me at all, it just makes me cringe

@ok1 Just like Link's Awakening for Switch Lite. With nothing noteworthy to add to the experience

Looks like I was right, Internet really is dumb

@3RedTriangles Because we are unfortunate enough to click on the articles, which generates revenue for them. Until we stop reading such articles, there will be plenty of uncles working at Nintendo

OOOO boooy, someone must have taken a huge leaky dump again, rumors are back

Still coming back to Newgrounds from time to time, just to think about the fact that it all started with one ginger kid surviving a school shooting

I actually am impressed and thankful that I preordered it 3 months ago and that I missed the opportunity to buy the original back in 2011, although I still have my Wii fully functional and could have done it at any point in the last 10 years (back in 2011 I got Twilight Princess instead, still not finished it, maybe with an HD upgrade for Switch I would).
Also those who whined about the Loftwing Amiibo can shut up now and enjoy the game as it is

@basswitch well the irony is that most of the Sonic games, Sonic Colors and Sonic Advance series included, have been exclusive to Nintendo platforms, more than the multiplatform stinkers. Also it has been the anniversary of what was once the competitor to Mario. Once it’s gone, it’s back to reporting rumors and soapboxes related to Switch

@basswitch 1991 called, they want their 'tude back. Sonic is no longer a console maker mascot. Also Nintendo first embraced Sonic after Sega's console business went bust. So it's not too much

Although I grew up playing the first Sonic Adventure on PC, I had a demo disc containing the second game's first few levels. I wish so bad they'd remaster or remake The Adventure games as they were both top notch!!
Also had a friend who owned a copy of the game on Dreamcast and told me about how addictive and unique the Chao Garden was, I was fascinated by how it utilized the VMU unit
PS: Chaos were adorable!

@panthro Sounds more convincing than anything shat out by leaKeRS. But seriously I'd enjoy those on NSO

@Moistnado Missed the joke

@Moistnado I just want a new Metroid with Samus blabbering about D A B A B Y, with her ship shaped like D A B A B Y

Bayonetta Forever vibes, see you in 2032

“You will own nothing and you will be happy”
This timeline sure sucks

Nintendo won E3 again

Alright, let's trust the Coca Cola profile from a country where most people still buy Sega Master Systems due to how poor Nintendo and other gaming companies perform there

@Arix I understand it perfectly and I’m glad many people here do the same. It seems that the usual toxicity of online communities is usually relegated on Twitter, where it should remain contained. There’s still hope for mankind

@Daniel36 Exactly, I’m just trying to make a statement to the writer and any person here that would think a furry hater must instantly be a troll or something.
If people love to dress and behave like animals of ambiguous gender, that’s fine, I just don’t want it shoved in my face

I understand that the Switch audience is big enough to support every denomination out there and that’s fine with me. However thinking that people should re-examine their life just because they don’t agree with certain themes or characters is a bit anti-“freedom of speech” but whatever.
We can express our gratitude or disgust about anything as long as it is well-mannered and justified.
As for me, I really feel a bit uneasy when furries are involved. However I enjoyed Undertale, which is clearly an lgbt-friendly game, but it has a compelling plot and good character development.

@smithyo I find the fact that GTA V is not for once in top 10 in UK crazier. The world has gone topsy-turvy. Well at least the brits never get bored of the f0Otie game

It's better than nothing I guess, tried both Control and Hitman but beyond the notion of playing them on a Switch, it kills the whole "play home console games anywhere", as I don't have unlimited data plan and I had some fluctuations with the wifi connection. Might play at least the demo, get its feel and then send it back to the abyss

The story sounds great and compelling, however I've seen Flash games on Newgrounds from 1999 that have more replayability than this. Those perfect scores would be understandable, if they would have come from literary critics and such. As for me, with the exception of Ace Attorney and maybe Famicom Detective Club, I just don't consider visual novels real games

Not gonna lie, it looks gorgeous, however I'm putting money aside for Skyward Sword and those beautiful joycons

Wow, watching Big Mouth while playing 7 G R A N D D A D????
Dang, Rerez hopefully knows about this

Can't wait for the whole Switch Pro upgrade bulls**t to blow up into everyone's faces. So sick and tired about the rumors. This is getting beyond cringe and proves that fanboys really are ***** and that journalists really have nothing new to write about when it comes to the Switch
Not saying that the console doesn't deserve an upgrade but COME ON!!! 2 f***ing YEARS of nothing being endlessly shared on the internet like it's a schoolyard and people actually believing the crap spouted by ANALysts and such...
It is more likely that Nintendo will release a next-gen console before they go on "PS4 Pro route" with any current system of theirs, and it STILL won't be as powerful or even close to whatever Sony and Microsoft will release in the future
