Expected. They could have ported the the 2 collections over at least, and left 3 as a cloud version if it was too demanding to be ported. Then we would have at least had some Kingdom Hearts on Switch worth playing.

Yeah they need to do a new NES Remix for Switch (and a SNES Remix while they are at it). I had virtually all of the games in it on VC but it was a lot of fun playing the bite-size chunks and challenges of the games.

@UglyCasanova
Must be some misinformation out there I guess. My NSO has 70+ NES, 50+ SNES, 11 N64, 19 Genesis games, and the DLC’s. It’s one thing if you’re not interested in the Nintendo legacy content and being content to just pay for the DLC’s outright, so that the NSO doesn’t have anything to interest you. That’s different than thinking it not worth the price for what is offered.

The expanded online is $49 for a year! $4 per month?! I still do not see why there is an uproar over it? I remember hearing people complain about paying so much per game for old games on Wii and then having to pay an upgrade fee to have them on Wii-U. Then we heard rumors of a "Netflix-style" service and people were intrigued. Now that it is here, they are dissatisfied anyway. Oh well .I guess it shouldn't surprise me. You can never please everyone.

@Sublogic
Yeah I'd be happy with a retro-style Madden game for Switch, with updated teams and rosters, etc. Similar to Madden '97 or something, but as you say, updated physics too. I haven't played a Madden game since early on Wii.

Man! What is left for E3? We still probably have more surprises coming

@Specter_of-the_OLED
Yeah that is an awesome perk for Switch owners, TATE mode. Love it

Yeah these have been awesome

We need more Eevee evolutions. There are what, 18 Pokemon types now?

@HolyGeez03
I was thinking the same thing! I thought maybe they had left it off the list at first

Interesting! I’m excited for Pokémon Legends: Arceus too. I haven’t played very many of the mainline games myself. I of course started with Blue and then yellow back in the day. Then I guess Diamond and then Sword. But I have a played the Pokémon Snap games and many of the puzzle games and XD and Stadium.

The Wii U was the perfect console to try a new Pokemon Snap game with the gamepad controller. Of course that would have required playing the game virtually entirely on the TV and using the gamepad screen for the camera view. I know that many were hesitant for doing games like this since a large portion of gamers played games solely on the gamepad (or at least wanted the option) similar to a handheld. But I really enjoyed when games made use of both the TV screen and the gamepad screen. Like Lego City Undercover where the chief popped up on the gamepad screen as your communicator.

I had just started my first year of college and barely scraped the funds together for one (luckily my birthday is in late November).

That Gulliver is great! I need one... you know, for the granddaughter of course.

Man! Lots of good stuff this week. I'll get Shovel Knight and Clockwork Aquario for sure, and probably Liquid Kids and Asteroids.

I'd forgotten about Layton's Mystery Journey. I guess it's a good time to grab it.

Hopefully we get that Three Kingdoms game in the West!

Hmm. Chess Brain intrigues me. Might give it a go.

@Grandiajet 'Yeah it is crazy. The DLC for it on Wii U surely made them lots of money for not too awfully much effort? A new DLC pack at the same price as the original one and now with almost 40 million copies out there... should have been a no-brainer for Nintendo.

Finally. Something at least.

@idork99
Yeah they could even give us a retro one with updated rosters (like Madden '97 style or something). Especially seeing how popular this game here is.

@mereel
That's what I was thinking. Am I missing something? It is $49 for a year (here in the U.S. anyway). That works out to $4 per month. There are a lot of games on there between the now 4 systems represented so far. I have no problem with it. Oh well

I went on to upgrade to it and couldn’t find. Now I’ve read where it is not until this evening here in the U.S. I guess. Oh well I’ll have to wait a bit longer I guess

Yeah it’s fine. I don’t have a problem with it. More will be added later. $4 a month is nothing

@Funneefox
Yeah I wouldn't mind a bundle of the SNES trilogy.

Give us the SNES versions on Switch then, EA, if you can’t be bothered to give us a decent game. With updated rosters, etc.

@HamatoYoshi
Hmm. Thanks for the info. That is suspicious.

Definitely need to get NMH 3. Also will grab the obligatory Arcade Archive title

Looks good to me.

@ChromaticDracula
Yeah I'm excited for that one too. I may go ahead and bite at the $24.99, though $19.99 would be better. Haven't played a good rally game in a long time.

Hmm. Intriguing. Looks like it may be a fun little local multiplayer game.

First I ever played was, obviously, Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt. When I received first NES personally, I was given Wizards & Warriors in addition to the Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt.

Speedball 2? Loved that game.

Very excited for Dread, especially since it seems to have that feeling of peril that you got from Fusion whenever the SA-X popped-up. Super Metroid is still my personal favorite (though I enjoyed them all, yes even Other M and Federation Force).

Yeah they should have made a way to play the Switch Lite on the TV and just not sell it with a dock. You would still get a cheaper version for those who play almost exclusively handheld, while also giving them the option to buy joycons and a dock or other attachment to play Mario Kart with friends and family. It's not really a true "Switch" if you take away that key function of being able to Switch between home console and handheld!

Probably end up getting Spelunker HD at some point

I bought this back then on the Wii-U to show some support. Didn't play much so I may get it again on Switch

@Zach777
I guess technically they are saying that the real Bowser is the one in World 8-4, whereas all the others are imposters as you can see if you beat them using Fire Mario.

I'm excited for this one too

Blaster Master Zero 3, Corpse Killer, Vendetta for me.

I have definitely seen the 3D Allstars at the local Gamestop still. And looking online, I see that the nearby Target has the Game & Watch. I need to get the Game & Watch

@danmonse @MrGrim
That has to be mine too, not even close. Considering how many times I have probably played that game in the past 35+ years and it's always a level you have to play to go through the game.

I'll get it. Had OK fun with it on Sega CD back in the day.

While Link to the Past will always be my favorite (maybe!), I remember loving Wind Waker so much when playing it for the first time. All you heard up to launch was negativity regarding the "cartoony" art style. Even my son and friends were skeptical after playing OOT and MM and expecting a "more-realistic" art style for Zelda. Boy was everyone wrong! It had all the fun, charm, excitement you expect (and should expect) from a Zelda game made by Nintendo.

@FredsBodyDouble
Yeah it sucks. I kept thinking "have they not gone live yet for preorder?" every time I checked. Nope! They have, they were just instantly gone.

Have to go pick mine up from GameStop later. Only played the game once originally back in the day. Mainly because with Wii U and Switch I do a bigger portion of my gaming handheld mode. Now with traditional controls I can. I realize a lot of people are put off by the $60 price, but doesn’t bother me. I’ll get money’s worth out of it. It would be nice if these ports were a little cheaper than the new games, but that’s reality these days.

@PJ301178 Hmm. I don’t think I said it was uncommon or that there was anything wrong with it, did I? I just happened to be watching my granddaughter that day and was just thinking it funny if I was just now having one of my kids, who have both been grown for a while now. I wasn’t trying to personally offend/insult you.

Yeah I don't like the scalping part (especially the consoles part as a gamer myself). One thing that gave me a chuckle personally was the fact that the dad was 61 and has a 16-year-old son. So he had him when he was 45? I'm not quite 45 and I have a 3-year-old granddaughter! LOL

@bluemage1989
Yeah I'll get it for Wii-U too. I still play the Wii-U a little bit each week. Like you said, I like to support it too. I think the last one I bought was Shakedown Hawaii.

Definitely getting the Zombies/Ghoul Patrol. Want to play the Legend of Mana, but that price is a little high.
