Freek

Started a multitude of games lately.

Playing Fury Unleashed which I'm enjoying as I picked it up on sale, also continuing my playthrough of They Always Run, started Chronicles of 2 Heroes, love the old school difficulty.
,Also playing Mario Wonder 4 player with the Family which is always a good laugh.

I also bought the English only copy of Top Gear Rally 2 for my N64 collection as my Australian rated version is the multi language release so I might play that again.
That now brings my total to 250 CIB N64 games.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Can't wait for Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg

Oh, so I'm the only one.

Can't wait to PoP this game into my Switch. 😁

Day one physical, I'll support a great game.

This should have been the voice for the Mario Movie, would have been hilarious.

Started They Always Run on my Switch after my CE arrived,love the artwork. Enjoying it so far.

My daughter is still playing Wind Waker HD on my Wii U which is always nice to watch.

Still playing Mass Effect Andromeda on my PS4, having a good time with it.

Might pick out an N64 game from my collection, maybe Rakuga Kids or Robotron 64 as they're always good fun.

Have a great weekend everyone.

They Always Run looks beautiful, I'll throw that one in the mix

Afterimage is definitely a great looking game and it played fine when I put in over 75 hours.

Souldiers looks great even if it struggles on Switch.

Ori game should be in there too.

Can't wait for other titles to follow suit.

Imagine if big studios used titles like this.
I can see them now......
Tekken: Fight the Cactus for courage don't lose hope in the Garden!

NFS: Truck of Strength on Highway of Brutal Love!

Zelda: The Kingdom of Battle Street Donkey - Leave no one Behind!

Mario and the Donut of loathing Battle Moon Flowers!

F Zero: Fun Fight Gun Battle Hover Street Racing Cloud Hoppers!

Can't wait.

I bought the standard physical edition but I'd buy this in a heartbeat.
Shame it's not both in the one pack.

Highly recommend Huntdown if you want an excellent 16bit throwback.
Excellent game. So much so I bought the Collectors Edition.

Same with Hyper Light Drifter.

PS4
Mass Effect Andromeda
I'm enjoying it so far, I'm flirting with everyone I can, I've had some amusing conversations.

Switch
Just picked up my Retro Edition of Eagle Island Twist from Premium Edition games and my Collectors Edition of They Always Run from Redart Games so I'll start either one of those two.

Have a great weekend everyone and be good for Santa.
😁

Bought this on release and haven't opened it yet.
Will have to change that.

I still have my original complete in box in mint condition along with every other Pal release so I'm good.

Shame they left out the best part.

Glad others get to enjoy it though since complete in box N64 prices are extreme these days.

So glad I bought the whole collection of 244+ games CIB released here in Australia though, my kids love playing them and couch multiplayer is alive and well in my household.

I'll stick to the Wii U versions with excellent gamepad integration.

Arkham Knight I can live without.

Most of us didn't need the award to know this but glad it won it.

This game looks great.
Can't wait for the physical.
Hopefully it gets a great CE.

@PtM
Yeah probably.
I like what you called Batman knight btw, seems appropriate 😄.

Also, I still prefer the Wii U version of the other two though, the gamepad adds so much to the gameplay in very unique ways that it makes up for any other shortcomings it might have. Once you've played a game that uses the Wii U's strengths like the dual screen it makes it very hard to go back to standard controls or standard versions.

Batman, Tekken Tag, Splinter Cell, NFS, Rayman, Zombiu, Mass Effect, Mario Maker 1 are all much better games than their sequels or on other platforms because of the way the second screen is used.
Until you've played them on Wii U you really are missing out.

So regardless of whether it runs better or not, it still is an inferior version.

Which leads me to my original point and comment anyway, "sad when your older system plays a game better than your new one"
I just wish the Switch got a decent version of the Batman series like the Wii U did.
They're great games and deserve better.
At least they put effort into the Wii U versions unlike this obvious cash grab.

@PtM

Still not as bad as this train wreck on Switch..

"the worst performing game I have reviewed to date at Digital Foundry"

Says it all really.

So no, Wii U version isn't the worst version.

@PtM
No they're not.
HD with extra controls that use the second screen better than Nintendo ever did, and they run smoothly.
I never had one drop.
By the sounds of it Switch versions are a hot mess.
I'll stick to my Wii U version any day.

Just wish WB didn't ruin some great games by getting lazy.

I'm loving Arkham on my Wii U, extra features and runs great.
The second screen is something even Switch can't do.

Sad when your older system plays a game better than your new one.

😜

Any word on a physical release?

I would love it in physical form.

I'll get the physical once it is patched.

I finished Moonscars recently and while it does have some serious frame drops in places I still absolutely loved it.

My daughter is playing Wind Waker HD ATM and loves my Wii U.
I do too.
I bought a Xenoblade Chronicles LE console at the end of its life cycle for cheap as a back up when my original launch model dies.

Games that used the second screen to improve its games are still some of the best versions available.

Started Cult of the Lamb, really enjoying it, some good fun.

Continuing Mario Wonder 4 player with the Family.

Started Rage 2 on my PS4, loving it so far, good brutal fun.

Also picked up my NES Action Pack CIB this week so I'm setting that up to play Duck Hunt with my daughter. She's a natural.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Metroidvania elements you say?

Sold.
Onto the wishlist it goes in the hope of a physical copy down the track.

Excellent game, will have to go back to it.

I grabbed the Signature Edition from Pix n Love which is on sale atm for half price!

Finished Hyper Light Drifter this week.
Amazing.
Absolutely loved it.

Started my 3rd run through of 8 Doors Arum's Afterlife Adventure since my first 2 were stopped with a game breaking bug that wiped your save file right near the end of the game!
Thankfully it has been patched and I can confirm that it now works properly.
Luckily it's a great game to have repeat playthroughs.

Also playing Mario Wonder 4 player with the Family and we hope to start Mario RPG this week
Have a great weekend everyone.

I have the LRG Collector's Edition and it is beautiful.
Love this game.
Glad others can get a physical copy.

I literally play Metroidvania games every week.
I just finished Zapling Bygone, Dog World, Astalon, Blasphemous 2 and Moonscars all in the last few weeks so this is definitely going on the Wishlist.
Is there any news on a physical?
Hope so, I prefer to buy them physically when I can.

Looks good.

Playing Mario Wonder 4 player with my family.

Hyper Light Drifter for myself which I'm thoroughly enjoying.

Finished Zapling Bygone this week and really like it.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Mario isn't a very good plumber what with all these leaks.

Dodgy Bros.

Finished Astalon Tears of the Earth last week and thoroughly enjoyed it, highly recommended.

Started Zapling Bygone this week and I'm really liking it, great so far.

Also bought a physical copy of Dog World after the recommendation from this site and finished it, I really loved it.

Also started Mario Wonder 4 player with the Family which is some great hectic fun.

Have a great weekend everyone.

@Princess_Lilly
Haha, yes, very much.

Also I wait to see if a physical copy gets announced, which usually happens later once the game is patched and fixed anyway.
I'd rather have a physical copy but if not I'll get it on sale.

I'm waiting for a sale on this anyway so hopefully by then it has been patched.

Super Mario RPG, pre ordered looks great.

Also preordered Have a nice Death Collectors Edition from Pix n Love.

Also interested in Saga of Sins

Viewtiful Joe a go go baby!

....not likely

Let's hope a San Francisco Rush collection comes out.
I'd love San Francisco Rush, Rush 2 and Rush 2049.
I still own all three cib for my 64 but I'd love it to be portable.

Highly recommend Carrion and Mummy Demastered, those are fantastic Metroidvania's.

Being evil never felt so good.

Both are so good I tracked down physical copies of both.

The way you move in Carrion is both amazing and unnerving at the same time.

Hopefully it gets a physical.
Also hope they do a collector's edition, they could do a Baker's dozen of art cards and release it in a box in the style of a toaster.

You had me at Metroidvania.

Just recently finished Blasphemous 2 ( excellent), Sundered Eldritch Edition (under rated gem) and Moonscars (loved it) so I'll bite.

Also just hunted down a cheap new physical copy of Dogworld after reading the NL community suggestions and I am currently playing through Gal Guardians so this looks like my sort of game.

No, there are never enough Metroidvania's, I've had a lot of very lean years before the Switch so I'm loving this generation.

Got it this morning!
Will be playing it with the Family tonight, in between quick plays of Blasphemous 2 for myself.

@LikelySatan
No it isn't yet.
Grab it while you can.
Looking forward to it.
Glad it is excellent.

I have Vernal Edge physical on preorder from Red Art Games.
Can't wait.

Started playing Sundered Eldritch Edition.
Now I'm addicted to it, such a great Metroidvania with rogue like elements.
Thoroughly enjoying it.

Also started Gal Guardians Demon Purge, enjoyable but it hasn't grabbed me yet.

Just finished Axiom Verge 2 and thought it was excellent.

I will start either Astalon or Blasphemous 2 next.
Have a great weekend everyone.

I bought a second Xenoblade LE Wii U console when retailers were getting rid of them for cheap.
Still brand new unopened.

The one game that hasn't been brought over to Switch yet.

I bought 4 when stores were clearing them out for cheap.
I have 2 being used and 2 still brand new unopened.
2 Pokemon ones and 2 Mario kart ones.
Great machine for bigger hands.

Just finished Moonscars.
Really loved it, has a real Blasphemous vibe.

Started Axiom Verge 2 since my CE arrived, absolutely loving it.

Also my Blasphemous 2 and Gal Guardians Demon Purge physical arrived so I'll be getting into either one of those two.

Have a great weekend everyone.

I love unique takes on the Metroidvania genre.

Yoku's Island Express mixed pinball beautifully with it and this looks like another great mix up.
Can't wait.

Can't wait.
Any word on a physical copy?

I hope so.
Just finished Moonscars and really enjoyed it.
I also recommend Elderand and Ghost Song.

There was 2 versions released on the original DS.
Still have my original DS release in mint condition.
Not the re-release with the different red cover but the original harder version that had less save points.
.

Glad more people get to play this game.

Glad I waited.
I will grab this physical copy instead.
