Could this also be used as a Virtual Headset (similar to the Labo) ?

@Lizuka that’s good news. Thank you

I don’t have a Switch 2 yet. I have a question. If you buy a Switch 2, and you have a massive digital library on Switch 1.
Is it still possible to access that digital library on both Switch 1 and 2 ?
Or is it once you transfer, you can only use Switch 2 ?
Any feedback much appreciated

Can you actually pre-order this? I went on uk site, and doesn’t actually let me pre-order
Edit: Working now. Happy Days, even if it only gets used briefly, still looks ok to put on the shelf

I’m not a fan of subscription models (would prefer if we had the option to buy), and I don’t have a Switch 2 (yet - hoping for an OLED version), but if they announce Rogue Squadron 2 on this VC, I will buy a Switch 2 immediately

I am holding out for an OLED version. Not dissing, I am happy to wait. I have a huge backlog of games to play

@Damo Great Review. Do you know if the Arcade Archives 2 version is any different to the standard Arcade Archives version (for the first Switch) ?
On the eShop it does say that if you buy on Switch, and later you get a Switch 2, you need to pay an upgrade fee for the Switch 2 version

I hate the fact that we can’t buy the VC games we want to keep. So I am very much in favour of the HD Port. Same with Twilight

Will we lose the upgrade if the NSO expires?

Is this the one that you can play Sega Arcade games in?

Operation Wolf / Thunderbolt with Giro aiming would be good. Also Chase HQ & SCI would make the 4th Volume a 10/10

Fortnight? Surely you can’t be serious?

Never played 3, but would love for 1&2 to be released on Switch. Both my Dreamcasts don’t read discs anymore

This was my first Xenoblade game, so this day 1 for me. Hopefully there will me no Animal / Enemy Pop In

@demacho thanks

I’ve never played a Yakuza game, but it sort of reminds me of Shenmue. Can you play Sega Arcade games in this ?

Only if Analogue Triggers are kept

I have 4, I have everything on a New 3DSXL SNES version. Would by nice to use my Ambassadors White New 3DS, but due to Nintendo’s bull***t rules on user accounts having more than 1 system, it is not worth transferring everything every time I want to change.
I think there is also a limit on transfers

It’s a shame they can’t put the Star Wars Arcades on there

Would love to see some download content for the existing remake, like adding music from Public Domain / Ban This / Propaganda.

Looking at the Screen Shot on the eShop that shows an elevated view of Hyrule, it looks very much like the map from a Link To The Past

No F Zero in Nintendo Franchise you would like to see return on Switch 2 ?

Still surprised they not releasing the original. Maybe it will be an eShop surprise in the June Direct

I used to get ‘Syntax Error’ when trying to write programs on the Amstrad

What does Patcher say?

Just having to create a Ubisoft Account to play their games was enough for me to not buy another Ubisoft Game

Looking forward to Rainbow Islands later this month

What does Patcher think?

Sega is bringing back the ‘Ages’ line. Available to download on announcement Sega Rally & Daytona

This reads like specific updates for PS4 and XBOX, and for Switch just a general performance improvement (in other words, sweet FA for Switch)

The only problem I had (my problem for not looking hard enough, not an issue with the game) was not finding the Tunnel in the central Tower (revealed with the floating Pad rising), that meant I was missing 1 key. Got there eventually.

Will this be Mute Link or CDI Link ?

I was hoping for N64 Wario Stadium

To those talking about C64 and Speccy, don’t bother. Amstrad was better 😜

<gets coat and does a runner>

Dick, I’m very disappointed

Let’s settle for an Arcade Archive release of the original Data East Robocop Arcade game

Was it really f****** necessary to swear?

@Edu23XWiiU I haven’t played MK on the Arcade for a long time, but I do have a Megadrive and a SNES. I say that the Megadrive plays better because the controls are more responsive. I guess we will have to agree to disagree

I always found the SNES versions of MK & MK2 to very laggy for controls.
Although the Megadrive versions were not as good visually, they certainly played better.

@JohnnyMind cheers fella

I have not purchased yet, but for Pikmin 3, Giro was helpful alternative to not having Wii Mote.
Can anyone tell me if 1&2 have Giro ? Thanks

Hope they add the Mega CD version also

Virtual Console returns, adding Saturn & Dreamcast, along with the Consoles available on the subscription service.

Backwards compatibility and OLED Screen please

I would rather them focus on a new game. BOTW and TOTK reimagined Hyrule. They should now reimagine Termina. Include more Dungeons, keep Sky / Underground / Depths. Keep the TOTK mechanics, add Majoras Masks transformations.

I’m ok just buying the individual games I want. Unless there is an exclusive that is not available separately.
I also prefer having a separate tile for the individual game on the Switch menu.

Just want them to release Chase HQ, SCI, Rainbow Islands, Operation Wolf / Thunderbolt to Arcade Archives

This pinball machine used to be in my local Pub in the mid 90’s. Takes me back. Will definitely buy this

@jetpak2003 I have also had this (game freezing during chasm diving). I thought it was because i was near a dragon, but I can say I have never had this before in 240+ hours.

You lookin’ at my keys stranger?

@moderators
would you care to explain why you thought my comment was trolling?
Also, please tell me who or what group I was trolling?
Also, is a joke now considered to be trolling (if the joke is not targeting a group or individual, and would not be considered to be rude)?
