@Gamesface I’m surprised this didn’t at least get an honorable mention.

Getting some April O’Neil vibes…

Looking forward to Skullgirls!

Never forgotten with yours truly. I do hope SOMETHING gets done with this franchise, be it HD remaster or a 4th entry on the Switch.

The only time dual Gamepad use was mentioned (to my knowledge) was if you were selecting plays in Madden ‘13 so it wouldn’t display on the TV like it normally does. But like Reggie said, not a big enough install base plus I’m sure I’m one of the very few who bought the game.

After the positive reception for Contra 4, I don’t get why they just couldn’t make another one. Ah well. This “Contra-inspired” game looks like fun. Hopefully Shantae and Risky Boots are playable characters. 😎

Eternal Champions

Looks like Child of Light but a hack-and-slash.

I saw both Golden Sun GBA games so I’m happy if it’s actually announced.

So wait a minute is Nintendo Life just now realizing this is coming soon? I saw this on eShop weeks ago. I’m glad there’s a Senran Kagura game on Switch that’s not a gimmick for a very limited audience.

I booted Earthworm Jim 2 just to hear the title screen music 😆. Still a classic.

I love Child of Light. This came out of left field for sure but it sounds interesting.

I tried it. Didn’t like it initially. I’ll try again later. Wish they were on the Home Screen like on the Wii U. But it’s nice to put the NSO systems in a group called ‘Virtual Console’ 😎

And the sentence mentioning backlogs…ouch. So painful because it’s true.

The score is accurate for what this version doesn’t and/or won’t have in the long run. Makes you wonder what Nintendo is doing with their online network if it’s going to (eventually) close off the Wii U and 3DS completely…🤔

I really enjoy this game from the PS3, and can’t wait to play it on the go.

Phantom Breaker: Omnia this week, Persona 4 Arena Ultimax next week for yours truly.

Can’t confirm or deny that I smiled like a kid ear-to-ear when this was announced (I was 😀). With this as well as the TMNT game from Dotemu, 2022 is off to a strong showing so far IMO.

Looks more like a protege, intern, or a relative to me. Also I can never forget about Bowsette; she was so popular I thought she would’ve been in SSBU as a Spirit at least.

@Neoicelord Exactly. 1TB gets cheaper as time moves on too.

Rollback or not, I’ll still be playing this online with my fast wired connection. Profile picture is of my main guy after all.

Technically 4th in the series but anyway, it’s fine to me no matter what accents are used since gameplay is my only concern.

@Nf157 LOL. It’s just like the SSBU reveal; male Byleth gets booed and the waifu is accepted.

“How does it feel when I beat you? Are you angry? Miserable? Frustrated? Ha ha ha ha ha, that’s what it’s like to lose!”

Is it weird to want a Tiger handheld in 2022? LOL

Octopath Traveler sequel hopefully.

Persona 4 Arena Ultimax is $30; great news for me.

10/10 thanks to Pyra/Mythra being added to Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

Cool. Can’t wait. Still waiting for the update for online multiplayer in Battle Grounds: Overdrive (which unfortunately may not happen).

I’ve said it before I’ll say it again: It’s WayForward so it’s all good. They produce quality on the regular.

Like others mentioned I’ll believe it when I see it. ‘Til then I’ll keep playing it on my Vita. Hope it comes true though…

@valcoholic The N64 original is definitely worth checking out. TTYD just refined everything from this game; I think you’ll like it.

I’m loving this. Profile pic shows who I’ll main; Now if only we could get the mainline Personas (4 & 5 at least) ported to Switch as well that’ll be even better.

Sounds like a similar update for Half Genie Hero. More content, more reasons to play again.

Just now getting to really play this after Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and I’m digging it. Retro-inspired JRPG with a cool and sassy protagonist is something I can get behind. I like how you can level up your stats to your liking and also the option to reset them at any time. I would give this an 8/10.

I’m fine with any delay from WayForward. More time to work their magic.

Character art looks cool; not a fan of the chibi look gameplay-wise but I hope there’s more to it than that.

Looks good. Definitely will add to my Wish List, but can the Switch version of Phantom Breaker Battle Grounds: Overdrive get online multiplayer now? Kinda the reason I bought it in the first place…

Anyway it’s cool to have Trina Nishimura reprise her iconic role as Makise Kurisu.

@Saturos1 Nice profile picture and I agree. Maybe if there’s a GBA section for NN subscribers added one day more people will get to enjoy the series.

That image had me clamoring for an HD port; this is interesting in its own right though.

Very “decent” huh? Chinatown Wars was a lot of fun IMO.

@NintendoJunkie Agreed. I figured they could’ve done just that but SoRR was before Sonic Mania, which is a fan made game turned into an official release.

Not even one sentence to mention Bomberman Games’ Streets of Rage ReMake, even though other fan made projects get highlighted…🤔

Other than that, great article! This genre will always have a place in my gaming library, on any system, and I look forward to what comes next.

@Sev_07 LOL lucky.

Ooh yeah. I brought mine to a Comic-Con I was working at thinking I’d have at least 10 hits but I ended up with none. It’s just how it is nowadays.

I’ve been wanting P4AU on PS4 and/or Switch, so I hope this rumor is true. More fighting games on Switch is never a bad thing.

@Chibi_Manny I assumed they would utilize the sprite work from BBTAG, not the Shantae engine. It’s not bad per se, just unexpected. Makes me wonder what ASW contributed and how.

I already have Grimm Eclipse and I’ll get this next year too.

@N8tiveT3ch LOL I’m expecting that to be ported over too. I figure it’s only a matter of time.

No buy from me. They’re treating it like a DS and/or 3DS but without the slight modifications to justify a purchase for older Switch owners. OLED is nice (Vita guy here) but I was expecting more from Nintendo a little bit. Looks nice though…

@Sunsy Like the Vita. This looks more like the top down levels in Contra to me, which is a good thing.

No option for S3&K? As in combined for the full game…? Well I guess voting separately will do.

@MrGawain There was already - Sephiroth.
