Puzzle Bobble games are some of my favorite puzzlers (even though their not too puzzle-y till later levels). Also, does anyone know what the chances may be of eventually getting Neo Bomberman on the e-shop?

I don't see anyone mentioning it, but the best part about this patch is that it gets rid of the screen tearing on Crystalis!! This alone makes me 100% happier with this collection.

I loved Slime-San, but only because I'm generally up for a platforming challenge. As for this... if it's too tough, I have a feeling I'm not gonna see much of it. Still, I'll probably buy it due to its unique approach.

For some odd reason, I'm suddenly craving a Twinkie...

Lists like this have a way of inducing anxiety, particularly when they include the sequels rather than the originals (even if the sequel is technically better). Seeing a "2" after a title makes me feel that I'm missing out on something.

@DrJiggle Thank you for that! Who IS that woman?! She's so out of place. My guess is that she was too late getting back to her arcade cabinet, and it got unplugged. She's gone "Turbo"!!

The Hard Corps 2 I never knew I wanted (especially since I've never been able to beat the first)

Between this and Twinkle Star Sprites, I'm set for multiplayer shmups!! Now to find friends....

@timson72 Good to know. I've also had pretty good luck with lithium grease in the existing bowl.

@timson72 Just looked... $125 for the entire module. Ouch! Still, I would if I could.

@holygeez03 I tried it a couple of times, but I defaulted to the even less popular setup-- D-pad for movement/strafing, analog stick for aiming.

I'm definitely interested, but a bit confused. I've had this on my Amazon wish list since it was announced, and the date has always been Spring 2019 (or so I had thought). Still, they can take their time; my backlog still has some depth to it.

TWINKLE STAR SPRITES!!!!! Been having such a rough week... I needed this news.

Yes! I'm so glad this is still coming. Now where's Cursed Castilla and the entire Ghosts n Goblins/Gargoyle's Quest series?

Please be good! I need a racer that's not FAST or MK8 (though I do love these games as well)

@SepticLemon Good news: Atari (whatever that means these days)is releasing the "Flashback Collection" for Switch. This collection will have150 arcade and console games.
Bad news: No "Battlezone"

@GrailUK Thank you for your service to this planet.

Please be Nanostray 3 (HD 2D shmup for Switch) or a new Jett Rocket! The latter has so much potential, and I would love to see what they could do without the file limitations of the Wii.

@Stu13 Added feature for Sega Ages

There is no scale on which to properly rate and rank my excitement. I'm also looking forward to finding out which classic property they'll borrow gameplay from this time, even if only for one brief level ("Space Harrier" in Bayo 1 and Starfox in 2).

I would love for M2 to do all of the Thunder Force games, Musha, Truxton, and a few others that escape me right now. The Switch is the first console that I've really been able to put in the time to improve my shoot-em-up skills, and I would love to further master all of the abovementioned games.

I'm actually excited about a slower-paced platformer. I'm getting old, and my hands get sore after too much twitchy gameplay (and I honestly don't think it's because of the Switch's controller; I notice it on my Genesis as well, and I love the 6-button there)

I love Custom Robo on N64! I could never get too far into the story due to translation hurdles, but I still play vs. mode with friends. As such, I'm fine with this being strictly a one-on-one competitive shooter.

I understand the analog trigger concerns, but sucky video game drivers--such as myself-- just mash full-throttle anyway. Heck, I even drive my car that way!

Such a therapeutic game, especially once they gave jumping a button prompt for dB2. Regardless, I enjoyed both titles on the Wii.

@Magician I'm actually kind of sad to hear about this physical release because I was hoping for the eventual Ikaruga/Radiant Silvergun/Bangai-O combo pack. Still, I will be picking this up day one.

Please Namco, give us Ridge Racer!!!! If not, I hope Gear.Club 2 is an improvement over the first. For this one, I'll wait for reviews.

@Mr_Horizon You're right; it was much slower. I think it's the design of the shimmer of some of the balls in the above trailer that made me think of mercury. Also, I'm quicker to bring up MMR as I was much better at it than I was at Banana Blitz (though I can admit that SMB 1 and 2 were the superior games to all of the abovementioned).

Maybe there will be some marble designs that will place a character in the ball... maybe... a monkey?!

Also, it reminds me of the fun I had with Mercury Meltdown Revolution on Wii (though I wasn't a huge fan of SMB: Banana Blitz)

I am so excited about this game! If it goes well, I'd also like to see a new Custom Robo game; maybe something that would combine 8th gen Pokémon with the fighting engine of ARMS... (apologies to those who hate ARMS)

@Dualmask Try looking up the E3 Treehouse coverage for this game. There's a bit more gameplay there (though I suspect it's more of a tutorial/demo mode, but it should give you a better sense of pacing and the like). All said, I am super excited for this game!

Sorry, just noticed that Ballistic90 replied the exact same thing...

If there is any improvement from the first, I will absolutely be getting this! I'm happy that there are some third parties are coming back after their initial "testing the waters" phase.

I'm kind of in love with this art style and the design of the protagonist. Please be good!

@Agramonte How might you criticize the photographers who have chosen to produce black and white prints long after the invention of color film? What about Lomography? As for "traditional" artists, I guarantee there are many works that use crayons, finger paint, macaroni, etc. Going back isn't always regression...

I've waited for a physical copy of Namco Museum, and that wait will soon pay off. I'll wait for this too!

I always get a little excited when I see chunky polygons. Sky Rogue, Gridd, and now this. Hope it's good!

Seeing 90's Super GP on this list is encouraging, but I'm afraid I've lost all hope of it ever coming out. Please, Nicalis; let us know what's going on!

I love this site. In fact, it is the only site on which I actively post comments for the sheer enjoyment of interacting with the great community here.
That said, here are my suggestions/comments:
-Organize comments so responses are posted next to the comments to which they are responding.
-To potentially guard against "review bias," maybe there could be "Another Take" by a reviewer other than the one who provided the original review/score (I use to like when IGN would do this).
-I love the idea of the site reviewing Nintendo legacy/retro content for the occasional "slow news day."
-I think the videos are great (I'm definitely in the pro-Alex camp).

Thank you NL and NL community. I wish this site many successful years moving ahead!

@SKTTR Odd... just five minutes ago I was still unable to find it on the US eshop... I wonder what the deal is? (and if I remember correctly, this happened with the first Gunbird as well)

More shmups are always welcome. It seems that this is the first console to go all in with releasing shmups in the west (in the past it seems like they were always being held as import fodder).

On a somewhat related note: what happened to Gunbird 2 on the US eshop? It has a release date of 6/21 but is listed as "unavailable."

How on earth have half of the people in this comment section forgotten that Arcade Archives are ALWAYS 7.99 (US)? Also, as a few have noted, this version has been ever elusive with only the DK64 mini-game coming close to offering the same experience (but the levels still didn't follow the original arcade progression). Though some of Hamster's releases have not been worth the $8, Donkey Kong absolutely is!

Also, as with many of you, I would be so excited to see a physical compilation that includes Ikaruga, Bangai-O, and Radiant Silvergun. Please Nicalis (or anyone for that matter), make this happen!!

@Bass_X0 It's kind of funny you should say that because I was thinking he sounded a lot like Nintendo and their reasons/excuses for not developing a new F-Zero game (i.e. not knowing how they can make a 'new' experience with the F-Zero branding).

Rez Harrier! On wish list for sure!!

I've been needing a new GnG. Now this is at the top of my list! (with Cursed Castilla as a close second).

Another thing-- why doesn't Capcom release a GnG Legacy collection? Everything from Ghosts and Goblins through Maximo would do...

@JJ286 I just saw that, but it doesn't appear to be available in the US. I may just have to import it...

I really want to get Little Nightmares on a cart, but as with Namco Museum and Naruto UNS trilogy, Bandai Namco refuses to release anything physically for Switch.

I loved this game for the most part. It just felt like it went on a bit longer than it had to (boss gauntlet was kind of a slog as well). Still, it was good enough that I got Okamiden (enjoyable for a single play as well) on day 1. If a physical release comes to Switch, I will definitely consider it.

Great trailer! I want this to succeed! The 80s kid in me has a tear starting in the corner of his eye...

I don't know why I'm looking so forward to this, but I am.
