@Nanami_Ataraxi That's good to know; thank you!

It looks like it might be fun. I'll be watching for a review.

Now can we please get Rare Replay on Switch?

I remember a Lord of the Rings RPG on SNES based on the 1978 animated movie. Unfortunately, like the movie, it only told the first half of the story and never received a follow up.

@Truegamer79 According to the review, Dig is set before the original Shovel Knight, making it a prequel, even though the 16-bit art style makes it look better than original (similar to Star Wars episodes 1-3).

I have truly enjoyed all of the Shovel Knight games. I look forward to playing this one; the 16-bit art style is very appealing.

@Magician Fair enough; I guess I'll find out on my own eventually.

@Magician I like Tempest 4000. What's different between Tempest 2000 and Tempest 4000? (Other than 2000...)

I just checked Amazon and Best Buy; neither mentions a preorder bonus.

I'm very interested in this collection anyway, but the free download just convinced me to preorder. I was waiting for a sale on Gravitar Recharged; this is better. I'm still disappointed that Paperboy is not included...

All I wanted was a release date for Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp and Metroid Prime anything (trilogy, remaster, 4 - LOL)...

Wave Race 64 and Goldeneye 007 are enticing me to upgrade my NSO subscription. If we can't get Rare Replay on Switch (which I would buy day 1), hopefully Nintendo will add the other Rare N64 games to NSO.

I'm kind of torn. I really enjoyed the 2D Origins and Legends games, but I also really liked the 3D style of The Great Escape. Maybe Ubisoft could make a Sonic Generations type of Rayman game that has both 2D and 3D levels.

Thanks for the review; it helped me make up my mind. Between an improved singleplayer mode and Salmon Run always being available, I've decided to get this (but I might wait for a sale).

Am I the only one that wants a new Wave Race?

I've gotten each of the Recharged games once they've gone on sale and will continue to do so. I'm still waiting for a sale on Gravitar.

I loved the first game. This is going straight to my wishlist.

I'm getting a Gravity Falls vibe from this. I like it.

I've had this on my wishlist; I'll probably wait for a sale, though. Now that this game got a release date, maybe we can get a release date for Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp (also delayed indefinitely for the same real world events).

@KryptoniteKrunch I have fond memories of Aero the Acrobat. It would be nice to have those games on the Switch.

Sadly, the two games I'm looking forward to the most are sitting in that TBA category.

I hope we get a Switch port; I would definitely play this.
Do a barrel roll!

I preordered a physical copy a few months ago. It's nice to have a release date. I probably would have preferred to play this collection before Shredder's Revenge, but I'm really not complaining.

Is NL going to review this? There is no way I'm taking a chance on a $40 game.

My first video game was Space Invaders (arcade). The first console I bought was SNES, which came with Super Mario World. The first game I bought for it was Star Fox. Great games.

Today's free game is Star Horizon.

I would also add Grindstone to the list.

All I wanted from today's mini direct was details on the Portal and Cowabunga collections. The Portal games available today is even better than I hoped for.

@WindWakerLink I'm still waiting for my physical copy of KOTOR from LRG. My copy of Treasures of the Aegean has been ready to go for a couple of months but I ordered it with KOTOR to save on shipping...

That looks fantastic! That's going on my wishlist!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Flashback 2 (misnomer notwithstanding) for me!

I'm wondering when we're going to hear about Advance Wars 1+2 Re-boot Camp again.

It takes LRG so long to ship the game, the free pizza coupon will probably have expired...

@RubyCarbuncle As a gamer on a budget, I tend to wait for a sale. This strategy also pays off for content too; by the time I get the game, it has been updated.

I'd like to see Rare Replay, Metroid Prime Trilogy, and Wave Race on Switch. I've given up on F-Zero...

That animated cutscene is beautiful! I might be too impatient to wait for a physical release.

@Angelic_Lapras_King Same here. The original Shantae was the only one I didn't have on Switch. I have been waiting for a sale, and this is a good one. Now I also have a complete set!

@majinx07 The price of TMNT Shredder's Revenge hasn't been announced yet, has it?

I'll be waiting for a physical release...or a sale...

I'm still waiting for my physical copy of KOTOR 1 from LRG...

I would like to see playable Nintendo demos return to Best Buy. I think the last one was for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3.

"I'd buy that for a dollar!"

The price is right: I'll have to check it out.

I'm happy about The Cowabunga Collection, but I'd really like to play Gyruss again. (3 warps to Neptune!) Maybe Hamster can add it to the Arcade Achives line.

@BoilerBroJoe I'd like to see DuckTales Remastered released on Switch.

Is there a physical edition for Shredder's Revenge?

Yes, please! A collection of all three for the Switch would be great, but if I had to pick only one, it would be Rogue Leader.

Sounds like fun

I am not a history buff, but I am certain that Namco did not terminate their licensing deal with Midway in 1884. I suspect that happened 100 years later.

Seriously though, I didn't realize Ms Pac-Man had such a complex history. I do recall seeing "Midway" on the arcade machine in my younger days.

I really hope there is a physical release for this collection.
