How many times will people need to be told : There ๐๐ผ Wonโt ๐๐ผ Be ๐๐ผ A ๐๐ผ Switch ๐๐ผ Pro ๐๐ผ at ๐๐ผ E3 And if Nintendo would announce it later in Summer, it sure wonโt release in 2021, otherwise Nintendo would shoot themselves in the leg
One thing is for sure, Switch Pro wonโt be released this year and everyone who followed the leaks (fecal-quality tbh) will have eggs on their faces. Dumb idea for the moment, with the pandemic-driven chip shortage crisis going on and the huge momentum that the regular Switch still has.
Anyone who follows the whole PS5 and XSX s**tshow knows what I'm talking about
@Alemates Not even that, there were circulating rumors for a few months about the game under the "Project Sonic 2022" nickname, much like Sonic Forces ("Project Sonic 2017"), so there was almost nothing out of common during the stream as everything has been leaked before it.
The only surprise would be if Sonic Rangers will perform slightly above mediocre
I really think you should do these kind of articles in a video form, as they donโt really work in a written form most of the time and it seems plain unfocused at times, like an ADD fanboy/fangirl rambling
Otherwise, they are both great games and I wish someday Iโll get to play ALBW on Switch in remastered form, never had a 3DS
@rjc-32 The Sonic PR manager just confirmed on Twitter that Sonic 3 & Knuckles will be widescreen as well. So we can expect that this collection will include only the Taxman remakes, which in my view beats any previous Sonic collections (the emulated Mega Drive games just don't play that well anymore) https://twitter.com/KatieChrz/status/1397972387870642178
Covid will be with us forever so I hope this kind of shenanigans will not be pulled forever as well. Governments must understand that we will have to live with it like with flu, as now we have vaccines and treatments that apparently do work. P.S: screw 2020
@RareFan It's Sonic Team so I wouldn't be so excited if I were you. Besides, Switch will probably be stripped of any realistic foliage and still be 720p and 30 fps like Forces was
@BlueOcean Pretty sure that they won't plan to do extra work to remaster Sonic 3, otherwise they would have shown it now. It's SEGA after all. Or they would have shown the Sega Ages versions for 1 & 2 and the original low res Sega CD version of Sonic CD
I dislike Sonic Origins for the fact that Sonic 3 looks like a ripped Mega Drive rom while the others clearly resemble Whitehead's mobile remasters. At least that would mean we get MJ's tracks, but 3 would have looked great if remastered by Whitehead, like in his proof-of-concept for iOS from 2013 or so
I love how many people whine about amiibo when they can :
a) Buy an amiibo card when they'll become available to enjoy the extras at a reasonable price
b) Actually play the game as it was intended and understand that those QoL features don't actually improve the game a whole lot (I did back in the day). The game is pretty straightforward and instant teleportation between Sky and Land feels like a Pay-2-Win feature rather than the amiibo-locked dungeon in Twilight Princess HD
@tseliot basically 90% of what she writes is like this. More of a soapbox writer than anything, but that's not necessarily bad. It's a Nintendo fan site first and foremost, not Bloomberg
@Serialsid Agreed. Hopefully with the pandemic winding down, the semiconductor shortage crisis will fade as well, then Sony should be able to solve the stock dillema. Right now I am deciding whether to wait for a redesign/price cut of PS5 or prepare my wallet for the theoretical Super Switch
@Octane Congrats! I will probably get one in 2023 or much later as scalpers get their filthy hands on the little stock that arrives in my country, instead of 500 euros it goes for around 1000...
@Serialsid the limited stock that prevents more people from getting it at a fair price is the main reason it should have been delayed. Just because it is the fastest-selling console out there, it doesnโt make it any better for those who want to buy it. Itโs actually discouraging if you ask me
I can't possibly imagine how Sony thinks they'll sell gangbusters with the PS5 with this horrible distribution. Shouldn't have been released in 2020...
To be fair, we have Dr Kawashimaโs Brain Challenge on Switch, unlike the US where the game hasn't been released AT ALL, so itโs kind of a touche.
Maybe Nintendo doesnโt believe such a small game should receive an international physical release as it probably wouldnโt sell many copies. This is about money clearly, however Activision is the real culprit here, with the Crash 4 fiasco, as that is a blockbuster title
Epic is really up its butt.
They really think that, for making Unreal Engine and striking success with that Fortnite garbage, they must be overly praised and everything must be granted to them.
I hope they lose the Apple trial to prove how jackasses they have become in recent years
Two things: 1. That pun really sucks 2. Maybe the employee is not aware that there are quite a few Wii ports on Switch right now that overcame the motion-control issues and are really playable. I'm sure that Prime Trilogy will be released at some point in the future
@MJF I was talking about wasting money on Fortnite Skins. (Overrated f2p game = Fortnite)
I have nothing against Dark Alliance, in fact I might get it since I like Baldurโs Gate, but 30 bucks seems really steep at the moment, that is all
@MJF Jokeโs on you if you really spend money on an overrated f2p game.
I choose waiting for a sale, however I have this feeling that by the time it happens, Diablo 2 gets a release date on Switch
@Znake True, though you gotta admit that changing the voice actor for Gray Fox took away from the original death sceneโs charm. Beside that, I have nothing with the Matrix-like direction of the cutscenes overall
Impossible, probably the remake is geared towards PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, if the rumours are right. HOWEVER, they could remaster the MGS HD Collection for all consoles including Switch (with maybe Twin Snakes as a bonus for it)
@RupeeClock I know that, that's what makes this game so interesting really. Always thought that the name was dumb, but sadly it was the smartest thing about this game overall, after playing it a bit
@Caryslan You forgot to mention how playing an Atari 2600 game on Switch or a Magnavox Odyssey game looks better than Bellend Wonderworld. Jokes aside, itโs all about the art direction, which in this case makes no justice for the game
People seem to forget that both LiS 1 and Before The Storm came out on iOS, both around the time Switch arrived on market. It's just Squeenix not caring enough about Nintendo and licking the boots of the glorified PCs from Sony and Microsoft. Nintendo gets almost every japanese game from Square-Enix, but those that come from western devs (Tomb Raider, Hitman, LiS, Deus Ex etc) are dodging the Switch like COVID or Plague.
@Tipehtfomottob no but their extremely limited number of copies (even standard editions) do no favor, most of the time they go out of stock just moments after the announce a physical release. Happened to me couple times in the past and decided to never trust them

@nimnio 30 fps with awful dips especially during the final boss fight, they gave up on finding solutions for improving performance

Maybe this time around they'll optimize the graphics and framerate so it won't play like dung on Switch

Re: SEGA Teases Brand New Sonic Game, Confirmed For Switch In 2022
@BlueOcean I hope you are right, Sonic 3 & Knuckles is the best game in the original series and deserves wholeheartedly a remaster by Taxman
Re: SEGA Teases Brand New Sonic Game, Confirmed For Switch In 2022
@DomGC Would be fun to compare with Bellend Blunderworld
