@BlubberWhale “I don’t want to be dead by the time 60fps is fully standardized (again... used to be pretty standard on NES and SNES).”

I think you are confusing 60fps with 60Hz

@gaga64 7 titles.....Thats actually a lot more than I thought

Not sure why people think there is going to be a Switch Pro.
Even if there is, no developer will ignore the Standard Switch install base. How many specific games did the New 3DS get?

Add me to the ‘disappointed with Sega’ list.
I had such high hopes for the Ages line.

Edit. But congratulations to M2 for making these updates and good job on the games that were released

@Rambler some classics there. Would give anything to have those games on Switch in their original form

Why is Turrican not listed?

Thanks for the responses @Septiclemon @Gamer_Griff @Slowdive
Have been looking forward to this (loved Turrican 2 on the Amiga). Have gone all digital this gen. so waiting for the eShop release

Where is Turrican Flashback ? Does anyone know?

This Switch Zelda maybe more appealing

.....I wish

Cloud gaming? Fekkoff

I remember having a demo on the Amiga of BTTF2. It was of the Hover Board Level. Never actually bought the game, but loved playing that Hover Board Level

Now make like a tree and get out of here

I just see that EA is losing the Starwars licence, I hope that is true. This gives hope for some more retro releases

@Woodyshoe yeah i guess you’re right, it’s been a long time since I played Sensible (probably over 20 years)

@Woodyshoe you’re welcome. It’s been a long time since I played sensible, but definitely has that vibe about it. Although I struggled to score in this demo, I don’t recall that being a problem on Sensible, could just be me

I tried the 16-Bit Soccer Demo last night.
It plays very much (or at least how I remember) like Sensible Soccer. Except it plays left to right, not Up/down.

The return of AGES

To change the mood a little I've been posing down the pub
On seeing my reflection, I'm looking slightly rough
I fancy this, I fancy that, I wanna be so flash
I give a little muscle and I spend a little cash
But all I get is bitter and a nasty little rash
And by the time I'm sober I've forgotten what I've had
And everybody tells me that it's cool to be a cat
Cool for cats

That the Switch Pro haha

@AndyC_MK84 I agree, but they are still playable, I had many hours playing Daytona and Sega Rally on the Saturn with a standard D Pad, so I would have to issue with a pro controller or Joy Cons. For the light gun games Motion Control with Joy-cons would work just fine

In no particular order, would love for these Arcade games to get a release on Switch. But Sega have fecked that up good and proper. But I am hoping Arcade Archives keep going.....

Sega Rally
Daytona
Virtua Fighter 1&2
Virtua Cop 1&2
Rainbow Islands
The New Zealand Story
Star Wars (Atari)
X Men Children of the Atom
Chase HQ / SCI
Ivan Stewart’s Off Road
Operation Wolf / Thunderbolt
Escape from the Planet of the Robot Monsters
Cabal
Choplifter
Golden Axe
Gauntlet
Defender
Ferrari F355
Pang
Paperboy

Edit: Forgot about Robocop

Looks ok, but still hoping we get the original Arkanoid via Arcade Archives

It’s a shame Sega decided to stop Ages. With the continuing increase of install base, ‘Surely’ they would sell if the picked the right titles ? Or release some collections (Golden Axe collection, or AM2 collection, or something like that)
Folders or any way of organising games would be nice.

@idork99 not played Kung Fu Master on the Arcade, but played that lots on the Amstrad. It was not a compilation ‘They Sold a Million 3’
Would most definitely purchase that if it became available

@joey302 there certainly is a long list of Midway / Atari games that would be excellent for Arcade Archives

@Fandabidozi that would be good, also make use of HD Rumble. The arcade had excellent Rumble feedback

To anyone who is a fan of the old 8-bit Dizzy games. FUZE has Fast Food Dizzy as one of the games

Hopefully, 2021 will bring some more Taito classics (Rainbow Islands, New Zealand Story, Operation Wolf, Chase HQ, SCI.....), and also Arcade Archives get access to Midway’s Catalogue (Ivan Stewart’s Off-road, Rampage, APB, Paperboy, Defender, Gauntlet ................)

@GrailUK indeed. I recently purchased a C64 Mini from Amazon for £40.
I never had a C64 growing up (was part of the 8 Bit Master Race - Amstrad CPC 😜)
But some of these C64 games are similar - Currently playing through Spindizzy

I actually turned my Wii U on for the 1st time in over a year this morning.
I forgot how many VC games I have, along with the Wii VC on SD card.
I had a blast this morning playing IK+ on the C64

It’s pointless talking anything Sega related.

I wonder if you can play as ‘Munson’ in PBA Pro Bowling

Mario..”I’ll never join you”
Shigeru..”I am your father”

Just picked up Horrace, and Gods (from the Amiga).
Am tempted by North & South but being a big fan of the Amiga version, this version looks to have lost that charm that made the original so good.
Also tempted by Pang, but not a fan new look

Shouldn’t the Turrican Collection be out this week?

As a bonus, I would like them to release the 8-bit Breath of the Wild.

The back catalogue is a no brainer

Also what about the original Wii U demo? Looked like Gohma in the Temple of time

@Sega: Stop talking, go away, and don’t come back until you have a new ‘Ages’ release schedule for the Switch.
Also, put some more games on the Mini Game Gears

Currently again, Wiki is showing over100 games for Arcade Archives coming soon

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcade_Archives

This was also shown 2 days ago, but someone keeps deleting them, then they get added again

Arkanoid, Rainbow Islands, The New Zealand Story, Op Wolf / Thunderbolt, Jailbreak, are on the list

Edit. And again they have been removed

I always get this mixed up with Midnight Resistance. Used to play this on the Amstrad CPC - better that the Speccy and C64 😜

Need for Speed has a 25% discount. That’s a nice kick in the goolies for anyone a purchased over the last few weeks

@NotoriousWhiz haha, not what I meant. Nothing against COD, but it’s hardly a Sport. Or maybe it is, do they have home & away kits ?

Esports Game of the Year; COD.....
WTF ?

@Liam_Doolan not related to this article, but according to Wikipedia, Arcade Archives have announced loads of new Titles coming soon. Some real gems from Taito here including Arkanoid, Operation Wolf / Thunderbolt, Rainbow Islands, The New Zealand Story.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcade_Archives

Edit; Sorry everyone, looks like someone was havin’ a laugh. All the games that were added have been removed. Should have known it was too good to be true. Bast##ds

Toastie!

As I need to say something else, when is the original Trilogy getting a release

I was hoping so much for more Ages. It is a big disappointment that they have stopped.
They did a people survey, and totally ignored it. Why not let Arcade Archives take on the Coin-Ops

Would have loved Daytona, Sega Rally, Virtua Fighter, Virtua Cop, Manx TT, Ferrari F355, Super Monaco GP, Golden Axe, Afterburner, Super Hang On, Power Drift, Turbo Outrun, Galaxy Force, Rad Mobil, Shenmue, Chu Chu Rocket, Crazy Taxi...........I could go on forever

Just as well, Nook is giving us more Storage space

How many double A’s does it use ?

@Olddantrucker not sure if you dissing or not. Don’t get me wrong. I am ok with this game, and will still buy it, it just left me wanting more breath of the wild

Nintendo Switch – 119,109
Switch Lite – 20,091

Nice one Patcher!

I played the Demo, and although I love the breath of the wild aesthetics and very interest in the story, I found it very annoying not being able to climb walls etc.

I know this not breath of the wild, but I found myself wanting it to play like breath of the wild

What I would like is DLC for breath of the wild that has this story and World (from 100 years earlier)

@Quarth I was about to write the same thing
