Selling my GameCube with 2 wave birds and a ton of games that I had from day 1 so they were all in like new condition I miss it so bad 🙁 also my local Game were having a clear out and they were selling samba de amigo pal version with the maracas for £25 I had it in my hand but thought this is not my kinda game so I put it back
I have no issues with the physics or controls and I played the GameCube versions to death. Monkey target does need fixing it’s just not the same my main issue is with the way it does random levels the reason I enjoyed the original is it got progressively more difficult as you got further here it’s the most simple level followed by the most difficult it just doesn’t flow right
Give us the original c64 version of Giana sisters yes it’s a shameless copy of super Mario bros but the music on the c64 version is outstanding I would definitely buy that
Got cruis'n blast for Christmas not even tried it yet so will be getting into that and my mrs found my psp go in the cupboard which has a GBA emulator so Metroid fusion and some Mario kart super circuit
Gonna wait until I know more and see some reviews I skipped splatoon 2 cos whilst I enjoyed the multiplayer of the original I thought it was a bit light on content
@Vyacheslav333 wow that’s an amazing amount of choices right there and I agree with all of them would much rather stuff like that than Nights which is good but hasn’t aged well SOtN needs to be on switch what about a castlevania collection with SOtN and Rondo of blood
@Milton_Burle I 100% agree I would love some dlc as someone who has owned the Wii u version with the dlc it does feel kinda stale now I just mentioned about Nintendo lavishing so much love on Mario kart tour and the same should be done for 8 but it caused a bit of an outrage amongst some on here
@Milton_Burle be careful what you say I mentioned this and got blasted by people telling me this is the deluxe version therefore it doesn’t need dlc but I think it’s logical given how well it’s been selling
Kinects main problem was the space required to make it work properly you need a sports hall for it to work perfectly some of the games were quite a lot of fun
@romanista that’s actually pretty cool looks like it’s better quality to be honest but whichever one you get will be great for the simple fact you can just put it in the case and away you go
@romanista I got one off Amazon it’s made by butterfox fits the switch with the split pad pro connected and I think 12 games has a cover inside to protect the screen it’s excellent cos I no longer have to disconnect the pad to store it
Captain toad is excellent feels like a Nintendo game of old simple but so much fun to play, it’s charming too. I picked up Horace with 90% off great game I would have been happy paying full price for it really wanna try fez
@FragRed yeah it’s a shame really cos the c64 and Amiga had some great games and you could literally throw a c64 down the stairs and it would still work 😂
@FragRed ha 😂 I remember reading that now you have come to mention it. Really is an odd choice I pretty much forgot it even existed the only advantage it had over the original was it’s loading times
What an odd choice the c64 games system wow I know the c64 had plenty of great games it was my first computer but the games system take away all the functionality of the c64 who exactly did they ask 😂
I tried my best with this game there is just something missing as others have said it’s not a patch on the n64 version just have to play everybody’s golf on vita for my golfing fix
I have a launch day switch and still really enjoy using it the concept of the switch is awesome I have other consoles but always return I just wish it had a bit more power under the hood cos no other company makes first party games like Nintendo do
@Astral-Grain it certainly is the best way to play the game it gets rid of the random battles which happened far too often on Dreamcast still a fantastic game which deserves a remaster
Rouge squadron 2 is a fantastic looking game still plays well too Rez on the Dreamcast is still a striking looking game played it the other week with the tv hooked up to the stereo outstanding wish sega would port it to the switch
This is great news I know they are missing functions but when you have arthritis these are a god send I managed to get a carry case from butterfox so these are permanently attached to my switch one of the best buys ive had for the switch
I got the retro bit Genesis/megadrive controller for £30 2.4ghz wireless and it’s great works with my switch and original megadrive so I think it’s better value but I will be getting the n64 controller it’s the only way to properly play n64 games even if the price is a bit steep
@BloodNinja try mmmonkey that site is a goldmine of repairs and mods virtually every system worth owning has guides I learned to repair and mod my Saturn and megadrive with great results
@ObeseChihuahua2 thanks sounds stupid but I’m holding off buying cos I have arthritis in my thumb and index finger and as much as I like the functionality of the joycons they are unusable for me
@OorWullie this is what I wanted to know but no reply if the joycons are the same then it should I really hope they do work cos the split pad pro is all I use
I so want one but my launch day switch is still doing ok except for the low battery life I just can’t help but think the original switch should have been oled from the beginning
@BulbasaurusRex agree 100% it’s a bad situation, remembering back to the GameCube days they actually used to put effort into some of the sports games like nba street adding Mario characters into it made them even more fun but I can’t see them ever doing anything like that again
@Stnkygrngo it probably is possible but I think EA see the switch as an afterthought and don’t wanna invest time and money into it they just want money for nothing basically just a roster update, they are jokers
