I wonder why it isn't Mega Boy?

Pre-ordering a digital game is a very odd idea.

Maybe if there's a pre-order discount?

Upon review, it was better than I originally thought.

SteamWorld news I hope!

Nintendo still could have had something at Game Awards...

Shovel Knight and SteamWorld make me happy... I normally wouldn't be interested in this genre, but will probably try this at some point.

I think I remember the GameCube versions... I am not really familiar with any of the rest.

Pretty Girls Mahjong sounds interesting... glad there are two versions.

"ibb & obb" is one of the greatest co-op experiences of my life... anyone with a friend who is into the genre should absolutely play it.

I tried Chariot on WiiU and it got very boring... never finished it... is Super Chariot any better?

Inside is great... and well known.

FAR: Lone Sails is a little slow and a bit confusing, but it is really cool and highly recommended at that price.

I bough a LOT of WiiU indie titles... but I do not remember seeing this one.

They do that so they can make it 100000000% off next week...

@earthinheritor Companies put things on sale to move product... if they didn't need to, they wouldn't... Nintendo doesn't need to.

We need to get a basic Economics course into our school system curriculum.

Personalized Dice Blocks and Allies break the game... glad they are gone.

I have owned every Mario Party since the Gamecube Era and none have been great since that era. Hopefully this game corrects that and I will probably get rid of my Super Mario Party copy.

The best board from my memory is Windmillville from MP7, where players decide how many coins to deposit and "own" the stars allocated to each windmill. That was a great board with a lot of strategy... hopefully it makes it into the new game.

I assume everyone has seen the echidna reproductive organ info?

Hopefully the good ones come to Switch...

I have the original Alpaca Ball on Switch... it's good fun with the right people... I am curious what the differences are with Allstars.

The biggest issue with the original is you can't play 2v2 with two humans and two CPU characters... maybe that has been fixed?

It does not appear that Allstars on Switch has added online multiplayer?

Disney. Afternoon. Collection.

Wii U is awesome!

@Dan420 Ok... so the main reason is because it's not worth the upgrade for me, just for a better screen. The items above are three more reasons not to "upgrade".

@Dan420

1) I have a Flip Grip
2) I have a Satisfye grip
3) I have a Fixture S1

I have a Flip Grip, Satisfye, and Fixture S1... three more reasons I have no interest in the OLED Switch.

I do hope there is a re-design of the Flip Grip that works with all Switches... and it needs to work with the Switch screen rotated clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Disney. Afternoon. Collection.

Someone make it happen...

I always hoped a re-make would come to 3DS like Star Fox 64... would have been great for that... all of the top N64 would have been perfect for 3DS ports.

For Switch... I would prefer a proper sequel.

Looks fun... but not sure about the $30 price... if it reviews and performs well on Switch, it will go on the Wishlist for sure.

Still hoping for actual Mushroom Kingdom courses... but I have a feeling that's all the courses we're getting.

Disney Afternoon Collection

Any electronic device that plays video game software is a "video game console"... there are handheld video game consoles and home video game consoles. The Switch is capable of both.

Colloquially it is used to differentiate things like PS/Xbox from PC... i.e "Console Exclusive"... but that isn't necessarily correct usage.

Wave Race/Blue Storm and Star Fox 64 enhanced ports would be good enough... the 3DS SF64 was great.

Or an enhanced N64 collection including Wave Race, Pilotwings, etc.

With that camera angle and Story Mode, this game seems mis-named?

@RadioHedgeFund I never said NES was the first console... you said the list of revolutionary consoles starts with Dreamcast. I was alive when the NES hit the market, and I assure you it was revolutionary.

I agree that everything after was fairly iterative until the Saturn/PS1 & N64 era. And nothing since has been much more than a more powerful box, except for the gimmicky Wii and VR stuff, until the Switch (with WiiU being fairly revolutionary, but misunderstood and mis-marketed).

@RadioHedgeFund Revolutionary consoles... pretty sure it starts with the NES?

I love the idea... but the price still seems too high.

And these games certainly don't need to be on a physical cartridge.

All they need to do is fix joycon drift and the false inputs on the Pro Controller d-pad... then everything would be fine.

A more powerful bluetooth connection between joycon and console would also be nice.

Unless the OLED supports Low Latency codec, along with this potential new controller, a headphone jack won't be useful.

This is all somewhat pointless in my opinion without support for Low Latency codec.

It appears that the Switch does not support Low Latency and very few wireless earbuds support LL anyway... for true Low Latency, you would likely need full-sized wireless headphones, the type more designed for TV/movie watching.

I have a Low Latency bluetooth setup in my home gym for watching movies during workouts, and it works great. Anything that is not true low latency is very annoying for tv/movies and would be even worse for gaming.

I believe bluetooth audio lag is the reason that Nintendo never allowed it... but they have caved to customer demand. It's fine for people who don't mind the lag, but I will be plugging in headphones to my Switch.

I was worried about the performance on Switch since it really matters for racers... concerned about the performance issues mentioned in the review, but encouraged by the comments saying it is not that bad... I suppose I will find out for myself.

Take your time... make it good.

Reads like a 1

Golf Club Wasteland does look like simple fun... and the price is right.

If the graphical performance is good... including 60 FPS split-screen... I probably won't be able to pass this up for some arcade racing fun.

Waiting until it's an 8?

It doesn't seem journalistic to postpone a review until a game is patched. Just review it as released. If it does successfully get patched, you can decide to update the review or re-review.

I guess I don't understand why someone would want a headphone port cover that large?

The Highlights section makes it look like Spelunky and Spelunky 2 are $9.99... Spelunky 2 is $19.99.

Inked: A Tale of Love may deserve some attention... hopefully it gets a review. Apparently the original PC release had some technical issues, but surely those are fixed now?

Looks bonkers... not a bad thing.

@OorWullie Why in the world would it offer 120 FPS on Switch? Will the Switch output that rate?

@Tandy255 I have almost bought the Afternoon Collection on Steam a couple times... but I am holding out for Switch... just makes way more sense.

That's great to hear... now listen up: DISNEY AFTERNOON COLLECTION!

I always hoped Venus would continue to be the better player... she is an absolute class act from what I can tell.

Serena... not so much.

Turning the N64 into a Switch Dock would make way more sense to me.

@Jeronan The Switch OLED is slightly physically bigger with regard to exterior dimensions (3mm wider)... shouldn't affect the case in this article... but could affect tight fitting accessories.
