@kingbk Honestly, Android is still better for that since MAME on everything that has it including Android can pretty much play any arcade game from the 90s and downwards and you are not stuck with the arcade game ports that the Nintendo Switch's eShop gives you!
This is why I use my phone connected to my HDTV via HDMI if I ever wanted to play some earlier titles on my HDTV since Android has many great emulators and my phone runs even GameCube games pretty well!
@WaluigiNumberOne And the Sega Channel was also nothing new since there was a similar service for the the Mattel Intelivision before the Sega Channel even existed called PlayCable which (similar for the Sega Channel for Sega game) allowed Intelivision users that subscribed to the PlayCable service to both try and test out new Intelivion games before they came out!
@WaluigiNumberOne At least GamePass allows you to play both at home and on the go via Android which is why most GamePass fans, like me, find the service so appealing not to mention being able to play something like Doom Eternal on a phone is a thing of dreams!
@Clyde_Radcliffe Yeah but I am talking about handheld mode because unless Nintendo makes the Switch's touchscreen emulate the SNES mouse then it may not be possible but then again I would personally prefer a remake of Mario Paint on the Switch rather than just a straight up port of the SNES original!
@JayJ While I personally completely agree with you it is just that companies need to make a profit now which is sadly the most likely reason as to why DLC was invented!

Re: Apple Made More Profit From Games In 2019 Than Nintendo, Sony And Microsoft Combined
@themightyant Tetris sucks with touch, Legp Builder is boring, and the rest of the games that you have mentioned are casual garbage!

@themightyant The service has nothing but bottom of the bin crap

Re: You Can Now Pre-Order Sonic Colors: Ultimate On The Switch eShop
@Snatcher All video games are built using PC!
Re: You Can Now Pre-Order Sonic Colors: Ultimate On The Switch eShop
Nah and even if I would I would probably preorder it on PC since I can play the game at 21x9 and higher framerates!

Re: 7 Horizons Aims To Bring 'Rayman Meets Mega Man' To Switch This Year

Re: Nintendo Thanks Fans For Celebrating Mario's 35th Anniversary
@Luffymcduck Someone at Nintendo thought the Disney Vault strategy was a good idea!
Re: Feature: Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Is Secretly One Of The Best Zeldas
@Muh-ario Eh, Twilight Princess was cool!
Re: Feature: Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Is Secretly One Of The Best Zeldas
@MoistWeever Trust me, stylus for everything was a terrible idea in the DS Zelda games was a terrible idea!

Re: Nintendo Thanks Fans For Celebrating Mario's 35th Anniversary
@Clyde_Radcliffe Except Mario Paint initially used a mouse so that might not be possible without some clever techniques!

Re: Close To 190 Employees Have Reportedly Been Laid Off By Activision Blizzard, Due To Impact Of The Pandemic
Battle.net gift cards was a stupid idea as if was Blizzard's way of saying "sorry but please give us more money"!
Re: Poll: Rate Your Favourite Game Boy Advance Games
@alexybubble @Magician Do not forget about Golden Sun 1 and 2!
Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer: 'I Could Have Never Designed The Wii... It Was Just Amazing To See'

Re: Shin Megami Tensei V Is Getting A Simultaneous Global Launch On Nintendo Switch Next Year
Not a fan of it being a Nintendo Switch since the game only maxes out at 1920 lines of horizontal resolution which is not enough anymore!
