"Alternatively, the game does allow for solo players to experience it; you can use the left analogue stick to control one character, and the right to control the other, with the bumper buttons mapped to the other in-game mechanics."

I am so glad that the modern distribution system and marketplace allow games like this to exist. I will definitely check it out. And thanks Nintendo Life for making me aware of it.

Now... how do we get Unfinished Swan on the Switch?

The DS Lite was my first handheld since the Game Gear... great design. DS and 3DS were great for portability, but the resolution and controls diminished the experience.

The Switch is fantastic for home console quality in a portable device, but it's certainly not pocketable.

A device with the portability of 3DS and graphic power of Switch will be the pinnacle.

@CazSonOfCaz If anything, the Steam Deck would be more motivation for Nintendo to release upgraded hardware.

If there ever was a Switch Pro planned, and it got scrapped, I would bet a lot that it was supply chain/manufacturing issues.

@HalBailman I never said that MP4 would have been ready in 2020/2021... just that it would have been Pro enhanced.

@TruthisRare If you think that not being able to go into the office/hq didn't de-rail development, you're crazy.

@TruthisRare I did also... except I don't think anything would ever have been Pro exclusive, would have decimated software sales... just Pro enhanced like the PS4 did.

And if we are at all correct, COVID definitely had something to do with it... Switch sales skyrocketed, software development slowed to a crawl, and parts became difficult to source... so we got the OLED model instead.

@StarPoint Probably the Prime 4 engine?

Prime 4 in 2024... on Switch 2?

Otherwise, I would assume Prime 4 looks like the Remaster... maybe a dual release like BOTW.

I really think Tears of the Kingdom and Prime 4 were intended for the Switch Pro that never happened due to COVID.

Reminds me of And Yet It Moves... and Gorogoa.

Definitely on the list.

Ok... I'm intrigued. Although I would like to see the actual gameplay.

Something like this might have been awesome on WiiU with the Gamepad screen being an underwater view... or radar... something like Affordable Space Adventures.

I also hope Pathless runs well on Switch and I will probably get it on sale some day.

E3 had a pretty good run for over 20 years... it is now a relic of the "old days".

With web sites, YouTube, Twitch, etc. in our pocket, we really don't need it. I will miss it, but only a little bit.

Because it is in no way a "Sensor Bar"... it is two LED lights.

Onion Assault is the only game I even recognize on that list...

And if I wasn't already aware of it, I would not have realized that is a legitimate game.

Glad to see them expanding... I received Dig essentially for free as part of a Humble Bundle... had no interest in it, but played it and it was so great that I bought Heist.

SteamWorld Heist was also a wonderful surprise... and Dig 2 was also obviously great.

Would like to see a Heist 2, but not sure what they could do better.

Port it to Switch... or make a sequel.

Maybe Switch 2 will have a second screen that flips up?

Will definitely give this a go based on previous games.

@ZonaiResearcher Sending to Nintendo for repair is one option... but it is a hassle, you will be without your controller for a while, and it will likely break again over time.

If this really is a better part that essentially eliminates the problem... it is a better option for some people.

Dig, Dig 2, and Heist are all great... If you haven't played them, they get super cheap on the eShop at times.

I was 100% until the Overwatch trick... then I stopped caring.

That stinks for the other runners...

I'm still so sad that SMG2 wasn't included in 3D All Stars... makes no sense... belongs there more than Sunshine.

And hopefully there will be some backwards benefit to run games like BOTW at solid 1080/30... or maybe even 60.

I love my Switch, but it's definitely time. I was pretty convinced that a Pro model was coming, but COVID issues plus a sales boom turned that into just the OLED upgrade.

If it's not backwards compatible, I will be stunned and will probably not buy one for a while.

I'd bet it will launch around the same time as Metroid Prime 4.

Highly doubt it will be announced until after BOTW2 releases.

@BrintaPap You can get a silicone cover with "bumps" on the back for less than $20... It makes the Switch far better to hold and it will still fit in most carrying cases.

I use one made by JEtech, but there are lots of options.

Portal for Switch should really include the DLC that was designed specifically for PS Move... it was called Portal 2 In Motion.

Should work great with JoyCon.

@lighteningbolt79 That doesn't help with basic online play.

Now get rid of Blue Shells on the 3rd lap... And 3 Red Shells should probably not exist. Then remove the Blooper and the Plant and the game may be about perfect!

The only other change I have always thought would be good... if you have 10 coins, you can't get a coin from the Item Box, guarantee at least a banana.

Still probably won't be good...

Yeah, since when is a puzzle having one solution a con?

Motion Control hunting?

That ARKANOID game is interesting... but not for $30.

@Ogbert It might be worth contacting the developers if you have purchased both 1 and 2 and now have no way to get the upcoming DLC without additionally purchasing All You Can Eat.

It is possible that they will help out in some way... I once purchased a game on Steam, which was a very simple game but had major performance issues... Steam refused to refund me but the game devs sent me a code to download on Switch.

@Ogbert If you already own the earlier games, what I was saying doesn't apply... I was saying that the earlier games should stop being available for purchase and all buyers going forward would just get the All You Can Eat version.

The All You Can Eat version gets cheap enough with sales that it is worth getting if you plan to keep playing it... It will probably be cheap enough at times to warrant a purchase just for the exclusive DLC.

All You Can Eat is definitely the version to get as the original has some glaring issues and progress can be very difficult and the fun ends fast. It is too bad that play-testing didn't reveal these issues earlier, so they could be corrected in the original versions.

Also annoying is that there is now the original game, the sequel, a Season Pass, a Gourmet edition, and All You Can Eat.

At this point, I feel like all versions other than All You Can Eat should be unavailable for purchase so new buyers don't get burned.

Denim? I always thought of his overalls as blue canvas...

Glad this is coming in Spring and not Fall/Winter.

I would consider getting this when it is inevitably $20 if it were World Cup themed... but nothing World Cup related?

@Anti-Matter

So you are NOT buying it on a console that has Mario Kart.

I understand why these games exist on Playstation/Xbox... but who is buying this on a console where Mario Kart exists?

The visuals do look quite nice... but you can't tell how the racing "feels" without playing it. Even the wizards at Nintendo didn't get it right on some of the Mario Kart iterations.

And what are the chances this runs at solid 60 FPS on Switch?

This makes me think a Pikmin Kart would be incredibly fun as an "adventure racer".

It's about time... the format from the 90's was not working anymore.

Absolutely loved Bushido Blade 1 & 2 in my college days... got a PS1 emulator just for those games.

The closest thing I have found since then is the Deadliest Warrior games... which are actually quite good and one of the reasons I keep my PS3 plugged in.

Really excited for this game... I hope there is a lot of variety between the fighters and weapons, which is one of the best things about Deadliest Warrior.

Tiers of the Kingdom

I'm still waiting for Starwhal and Sportsball on Switch... or better yet, sequels!

An actually good game in the style of the Batman Arkham games, with the art style of the 2012 animated series would be welcome.

And make it so that there is a strategy/gameplay difference between the different Turtles.

I still want to know if TMNT has a "casual mode" or cheat codes? I want to play through the games in co-op, but I don't really feel like struggling through with a few lives... the rewind feature probably doesn't cut it.

This looks interesting, but I got burned on Golf Club Wasteland... which NL gave a 7. That game was never fun.

I may give this a try, but it's on the Wait for a Sale list.

And where is Sports Story?

I remember seeing an ad for this on a TV at Blockbuster... I didn't think I had any interest in it, but there weren't alot of N64 games at the time... I rented it, played it all weekend, and bought it as soon as I could. Put a ton of hours into it, especially Stunt Mode once I could easily beat the CPUs.

The game has a wonderful ambience and feel... so simple and yet so good... I still break it out every once in a while and pretty much just ride the dolphin around.

This games needs an HD remaster (along with Star Fox 64).

I have seen several GDQ speedruns of this game and both the game and runs are awesome!

Will the upcoming TMNT Collection have infinite lives cheat codes? If not, I don't see myself playing them much since I don't have the time to put into them like I did as a kid.
