@dartmonkey A few years back it may have seemed obvious that Sony wouldn't port their PlayStation exclusives to PC, or Nintendo releasing smartphone games.
I really don't care about this tbh. Clickbait title along with the "Rumour" tag implies these would be official Nintendo authorised PC ports. Thanks for wasting my time.
Ask them why it isn't listed on the eShop and thus can't be pre-ordered. Baffles me when publishers do this. Why wouldn't you want your game that's coming soon to be listed in the coming soon section lmao
I highly recommend Death Ray Manta SE, particularly if you have a Switch OLED. It pops like crazy. Wonderfully addictive twin stick shooter perfect for short burst play.
I own the Topolon one. I'd always wondered why there were only two games with random numbers in the title (25 and 29), and this article explains why, so that's nice.
I'd definitely buy the Tetris Diamond one, at the very least.
Nintendo System Update and UI team, 2012: "We will add as many interesting, charming and useful features to our two systems as possible. Spare no expense".
Nintendo System Update and UI team, the last remaining employee, 2022: "switch stable lol".
@PessitheMystic Agreed. Haven't used it myself, but I wouldn't because from what I've seen on Facebook the guy who runs it has his head up his own ass.
I too played it via Game Pass and enjoyed it. Was great to play on dark moody evenings. Certainly, it isn't a game for everyone. I'd give it a 7 or 8 tbh.
People who steal modern games are disgusting, and have no passion or respect for the industry or games as an artform. Stick to playing Fortnite with your kids you thieving lowlives.
There should be at least one game added to NES/SNES/N64/Mega Drive weekly. They managed it in 2006 with a poorly run digital marketing team, they can manage it now.
Would love to play it, but as I own the physical version I certainly can't justify spending £54 on an indie game (£35.99 for the required digital version and £17.99 for the DLC itself).
Some of the great eShop games that go ignored and not reviewed by this site, but if there's an obscure shmup three people might care about, it's reviewed lols
I'd give it a 7 or an 8. Like every Yoshi game, the real challenge and fun comes from finding/collecting everything. The 4 levels on each page means playthroughs have a huge amount of possible combinations of levels.

Re: Rumour: Banjo-Kazooie, Perfect Dark, And Paper Mario Might All Be Getting Fan PC Ports
@BloodNinja Maybe they edited the article headline, like the guy a few comments above yours said they did?
Seriously, stop replying to me.
Re: Rumour: Banjo-Kazooie, Perfect Dark, And Paper Mario Might All Be Getting PC Ports
@BloodNinja Yes, by misleading me into believing that Nintendo were possibly planning to officially port their legacy content to PC.

Re: Yes, The House Of The Dead: Remake Does Have Gyro, And It's Getting A 'Cowboy Mode'
@fox_mattcloud Thanks.
A release date for a preorder date to preorder a game to play it on release date 🤷🏻♂️

Re: Here's A First Look At The House Of The Dead: Remake Physical Switch Release
Microids are one of my least favourite publishers. You'd think Sega would want to publish their own IP.
Looking forward to the game, hope they haven't messed it up.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 12th)
F-Zero X and Gran Turismo 7.
It's a good month for racing games, what with the MK8D Booster Pass, and that Chocobo microtransaction game I don't care about.
Re: Grindstone's New 'Carnival Of Creeps' Update Adds 15 Levels, And A Big Tent
@Wolf_BrickApple It's like a turn-based Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon.
Really cool game, I played it for over 20 hours. Will have to check out this update.
Re: PSA: Nintendo Says Switch Sports Won't Work On The Switch Lite
It's just Nintendo Switch Sports, not "the Nintendo Switch Sports".
Re: Review: Sol Cresta - PlatinumGames' Intriguing Shmup Doesn't Do Enough To Stand Out
I saw the price on the UK eShop the other week and laughed to myself. Never been a fan of Platinum, even when Nintendo publish their stuff.
Re: Sadako Rising: Dead By Daylight Will Haunt Us With 'Ringu' Content Soon
Cool, I thought he was brilliant as a Thomas the Tank Engine narrator and heard he was in some band.
Re: Pre-Orders For Nintendo Switch Sports Go Live, Physical Copies Include Leg Strap Accessory
I've preordered Nintendo Switch Sports from ShopTo for £34.15 with the leg strap 🙃
Re: Random: The World's First Gamer Nut Butter Is Made For Gamers To Eat While Gaming
Jobbie Pong lol. Sounds like one of Delboy's contacts.
Re: Review: Swords & Bones - Ghosts 'N Goblins-Style Indie Action, With A Dash Of Castlevania
The same advert appears on this page NINE times for me. Awful.
Re: Review: OlliOlli World - A Radical Departure And A Must-Play
£25, or £35 for the deluxe edition or whatever. It looks cool but I'll wait for it to drop below £10 or so.
Re: Switch Outsells Wii And PlayStation, Passes 100 Million Faster Than Any Other Home Console
@Specter_of-the_OLED You can do that with a DS, so by that logic the DS is Nintendo's best selling home console.
Re: Nintendo Switch Has Now Outsold Both The Wii And PlayStation
It's a little hard to accept it as the fastest selling home console when almost 20 million of the units sold are strictly handheld systems.
Not to take away from how impressive it is, but still.
Re: Talking Point: Do You Consider Pokémon Legends: Arceus To Be A Mainline Title?
Somewhere in between those weird home console RPG-lite games for Gamecube (Colosseum and XD), and a mainline game.
Re: Aerial_Knight's Never Yield Set For 'Huge Improvements' In Update
Remove the hacker alius from the title and I'll consider it.
Re: UK Charts: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Returns To Winning Ways With Another Number One
@syrupdash Likely because Argos were selling it for £35.99 or so.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Shmups
I highly recommend Death Ray Manta SE, particularly if you have a Switch OLED. It pops like crazy. Wonderfully addictive twin stick shooter perfect for short burst play.
Re: Cult Classic Motorbike Sim 'Elasto Mania' Returns As A Remaster Next Week
I think I used to play the browser version of Trials in ICT classes at school in like 2003.
This kind of looks like shovelware. Does it really have a cult following?
Re: Feature: Japan's 'G-Mode Archives' - The Retrogame Series You've Never Heard Of

I'd definitely buy the Tetris Diamond one, at the very least.

Re: 'Video Game Swap Shop' That's Saving People Thousands Reaches Business Award Finals
@PessitheMystic Agreed. Haven't used it myself, but I wouldn't because from what I've seen on Facebook the guy who runs it has his head up his own ass.
Re: Review: SNK VS. Capcom: Card Fighters' Clash - An Utterly Essential Card-Battler
Downloaded it because of its cult status and even after watching the tutorial thing I have no idea what's happening lol
Re: Random: The OG Tomb Raider Looks Amazing On Game Boy Advance
Super Monkey Ball Jr looked and ran better tbh.
Re: Mini Review: Twelve Minutes - A Tedious Time Loop That Squanders Its Potential
I too played it via Game Pass and enjoyed it. Was great to play on dark moody evenings. Certainly, it isn't a game for everyone. I'd give it a 7 or 8 tbh.

Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd December (Europe)
A whole lotta shovelware hoping to take advantage of Christmas Switch getters.
Twelve Minutes is really good though.
Re: Goku Fans Can Now Download A "Free Demo" Of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot On Switch
This demo has been live on the eShop for weeks.
Re: Round Up: Every Switch Game Announced In Nintendo's Indie World Showcase - December 2021
Really enjoyed Chicory on PS5. Highly recommended.
Re: Picross S7 Is Out, Now With Stylus Support And A Big Picross Sale
No it isn't. Not in the UK, at least.
Re: Mini Review: WinBack: Covert Operations - Omega Force's Overlooked And Influential Cover Shooter
Couple months (and technically years) late.
Re: Talking Point: Should The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Library Expand Faster?
There should be at least one game added to NES/SNES/N64/Mega Drive weekly. They managed it in 2006 with a poorly run digital marketing team, they can manage it now.
Re: Mini Review: The Binding Of Isaac: Repentance - A Welcome Rebalance For The Roguelite Classic
Would love to play it, but as I own the physical version I certainly can't justify spending £54 on an indie game (£35.99 for the required digital version and £17.99 for the DLC itself).
Re: Review: BloodRayne ReVamped - A Joyless, Frustrating Port That Shows How Far We've Come
I never played the originals because of average reviews at the time. I like games from this era though, as well as alternative gothy stuff.
I love this game and would give it an 8.
Opinions 😊
Re: Review: Clockwork Aquario — A Short And Oh-So-Sweet Arcade Platformer Rescued From Oblivion
Looks and sounds cool. I'd feel more comfortable paying £9.99 or less though, really.
Re: Review: Toaplan Arcade Garage - Two Historic Shmups Archived By Arcade Port Masters M2
Some of the great eShop games that go ignored and not reviewed by this site, but if there's an obscure shmup three people might care about, it's reviewed lols
Re: Rockstar Has Released Its First Update For The Grand Theft Auto Trilogy
Without reading through the comments or checking my games for updates, the article is unclear on whether or not the Switch version's patches are live.
Re: Nintendo's American Branch Didn't Like The Idea Of GameCube Being Purple
This whole article is purple
Re: Round Up: The Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl Reviews Are In
@thiz- Can't take this review seriously, all things considered. Thanks for pointing this out.
Re: Review: Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition - Three Classics In One Shocking Package
Lol come on now.
Re: My Nintendo Adds Wario-Themed Washi Tape As A Physical Reward (Europe)
"Based on the WarioWare".
It's just WarioWare.
Re: Review: Yoshi's Story - Pleasant, But Not A Patch On The Dinosaur's Best
I'd give it a 7 or an 8. Like every Yoshi game, the real challenge and fun comes from finding/collecting everything. The 4 levels on each page means playthroughs have a huge amount of possible combinations of levels.
Looks super crisp in HD on the OLED Model!
Re: Review: Dusk - An Incredible Port Of 2018's Quake-Inspired Boomer Shooter
Loving it, especially the whole cult/farmland atmosphere. I got Dusk '82 as a preorder bonus too, which is pretty cool.
