Nintendo really needs to make a Ratchet & Clank style game. It could be a StarFox spin off.

Of course, I really want a new Wave Race for Switch 2. Can you imagine the water graphics?

SEGA should have focused more on Crazy Taxi 🚕 and Jet Set Radio than this so-called super game. You know, games that people are actually interested in and have been asking for. It's somewhat telling that, even while it's being canceled, they won't say what it actually was.

See, Nintendo? People really like StarFox. Could you please add Assault and Adventures to GameCube Online?

I'm reluctantly sold. The graphics look fantastic; I don't mind the new character designs. I like seeing the feathers on Falco. StarFox was the first game I bought for my SNES. I have played the SNES and N64 StarFox games a lot. I enjoy the arcade-style gameplay plus I like finding the branching paths. So the Switch 2 StarFox levels sound like prettier carbon copies of the N64 levels. I would have preferred a mix of old and new. So, I'm somewhat disappointed but still looking forward to playing it.

I see more games being released on Switch 1 than on Switch 2, so it's feasible that the OG Switch would continue to be sold, especially as Switch 2 console prices increase. It won't hurt to have a lower-priced option.

I will definitely buy Indiana Jones and the Complete Physical Release...eventually. I'm waiting for a sale, even if I have to wait for Black Friday. Gyro controls is great news! It's not for me, but I'm happy for mouse control fans.

Historically, US pre-orders do not get discounted. However, within the last month, Splatoon Raiders, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, and now the new(?) StarFox are $10 off each. The first two from Walmart only and Starfox from Walmart and Amazon. I usually wait for a sale before buying; it's nice not to have to wait. I notice that it's only first party Nintendo games so far. I've been hoping for a $10 discount on Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but no signs of one yet.

I thought the US price was $50 too high when the Switch 2 was released. I bought one last year when my OG Switch died. Costco had the Mario Kart World bundle with a one-year expansion pass membership; the price was decent for the bundle. In light of the upcoming price increase, I'm glad I got it when I did. Plus, I've enjoyed my time with DK and Samus (but DK is more fun).

I just pre-ordered from Amazon because it's $10 off, but I can't change my answer from As soon as possible to I've already pre-ordered.

I preordered Yoshi and Splatoon from Walmart because they matched the digital prices. It's Amazon's turn since is doing the same for StarFox.

I actually like both takes on the characters. The Switch 2 version reminds me of the SNES box and marketing materials.

It's listed for $50 on the eshop now. The estimated size is 14.8 GB. It says: "You can also use GameShare via local wireless to play with friends who have Nintendo Switch 2 or Nintendo Switch systems!"

Edit: The physical version is listed for $60 on Amazon.

A new StarFox! Oh, it's a remake of the N64 game which was a remake of the SNES game? A StarFox!

Someone's getting fired for missing that one.

I'm more interested in seeing Wario appear in a new Wario Land game. 🎮

Shake It! came out in 2008!!!

Short answer: I don't.

Does this qualify as a Zeldavania?

I don't have the Nintendo Today app, so I come here for those updates. I do like watching the Directs, though.

What usually happens is that while I'm waiting for the physical version to release, the already cheaper digital version goes on sale, and I end up downloading. Do I want to spend $30 for the physical copy of Hollow Knight when I can download it for $10? Spoiler: I downloaded it for $10.

For the sequel: 007 vs 47?

Interesting...I would find the reverse more plausible.

This game is currently $3 on the eshop.

I downloaded this and started playing based on this review. I definitely see the Hollow Knight influence as well as Epic Mickey, with the protagonist dripping paint upward and fighting with a big paint brush. I find the game challenging (but not brutally so) and beautiful; the hand-drawn animation is really nice. Thanks for the recommendation, Ryan.

@Lone_Beagle Check Walmart; the preorders for Yoshi and Splatoon Raiders were $10 off each.

Indiana Jones and the Complete Physical Cartridge

Walmart's preorders for Yoshi and Splatoon Raiders were each $10 off, so I took advantage of that. Indy's next on my list if there's a similar deal.

I still have the original Star Wars Monopoly board game.

Wave Race! F-Zero! Chibi Robo! Mother!

As long as they keep this away from Illumination, I would be fine with live action or animation. Metroid should not get the comedy treatment.

Thanks for the review; I'm glad it's positive. I am interested in getting a physical copy.

I enjoyed that it was a backdoor pilot for a StarFox movie. Now I'm ready for a new StarFox game. 🦊🎮

Speaking of games that haven't been reviewed by NL, has anyone played Mouse: PI yet?

Exclusive games or not, I'm not buying an Xbox.

@Maxz I can't tell if that was a pun or meant at face value. It works either way.

Why don't you work on making better games, SEGA?

It looks like I need to invest in a new Micro SD Express card.

This looks to have everything I look for in a Bond game. I am curious why James Bond has a facial scar, which was traditionally reserved for the villain(s).

Ecco The Dolphin: Misnomer Edition? Complete or not, I'm interested, especially with a new game included.

Thanks for letting us know; I'm downloading the demo now.

I remember when Luigi was just a palette-swapped green Mario and there was no story.

StarFox Zero looked nice but it was a remake of StarFox 64, which in turn was a remake of the original StarFox on SNES. It really had a feeling of "Been there; done that" but this time with frustrating controls. I hated the controls. I don't want to look away from my TV; I just wanted the classic StarFox control scheme. On the other hand, StarFox Guard, the free pack-in game that came with it, was absolutely delightful.

I just got the physical version on Friday and played it all weekend. I absolutely love it. It was great hearing some familiar voices for the iconic characters. It really feels like a modern take on the 90's beat-'em-up. Great job!

@johnedwin The hair was very distracting in the demo.

@kmtrain83 In space, there is no foliage. (My apologies for butchering the original Alien tagline.)

Love the tagline!

@sorraks Have you read the books? I'm curious how they compare to the show.

@KeeperBvK I highly recommend the show. It's serious sci fi with excellent production values.

@RoboCube I know I've seen the N64 F-Zero in the online service but I don't recall seeing the GameCube iteration. You could be right, though.

We still need the GameCube iterations of Wave Race, F-Zero, and StarFox.

I wouldn't say no to more Captain Toad either...

Can we get confirmation of a StarFox Switch 2 game first? As long as we're putting together a wish list for Nintendo, I would like to request new entries for Wave Race, F-Zero, and Wario Land. Thank you.
