That's what I was afraid... this was a "maybe on sale" wishlist item... but the performance issues make it a "definitely not".

If you have any interest in this game and no way (or interest) to play it on a more powerful machine, you should give it a shot.

I play this on PC with a friend who lives across the country now and tag-teaming the missions while chatting via headset is quite enjoyable.

Also, as others have stated... SnowRunner has WAY more things to do than MudRunner.

King of Seas does look interesting... I don't think it actually releases until May 25th.

Why in the world wouldn't they find something for Skyward Sword Link to activate... maybe any Link, just because.

I don't care about this game... or amiibo... but they could easily find something for the Link amiibo so people don't feel pretty screwed.

Your Link amiibo will unlock different costumes for Link... yay!?

Someone must put a giant piranha plant in one?

Could be fun... hopefully it is.

So the DVD-RAM drive essentially looks like a HDD to the WiiU?

I suppose that could be useful for long-term storage with archive quality discs... but a HDD would be far more useful for most?

Not sure how well it will run on Switch, but SnowRunner is quite fun if you have any interest in the premise.

There is WAY more to do than in MudRunner, which was still quite fun.

With the internet, we can get game news immediately... see trailers and gameplay videos whenever we want, on our phones... not sure tradeshow events are necessary.

At this point, E3 is just a popular choice of "when do we announce stuff?" And it's popularity was diminishing pre-covid.

Does it have online?

This game sounded very interesting and knowing it was a short experience, I downloaded it and played through with my wife.

There was one part toward the beginning that was a clever way to have the player feel what the character is experiencing. I was excited to see what else the game would do...

Unfortunately, after that part... it was a rather predictable story and uninteresting experience.

I am disappointed to say that, in my experience, this game is a very basic point-and-click with a mediocre story element. If it weren't for the "heavy" subject matter at its core, I doubt it would even be noticed by media outlets.

Images can look very different on different screens.

Old Man's Journey and Journey of the Broken Circle are on super sale... I will be getting those instead of any of this.

@jump It's only $8, which seems very fair... you are certainly free to do as you wish, but you may want to consider supporting the devs by getting it right away.

@Aurumonado You need to take a look at their decades long business history... they know how to make money.

WiiU was/is awesome... I played hours and hours on the GamePad on my couch while my wife watched something else on TV.

So glad to see these types of games coming to Switch... just wish they all had release dates.

Very intriguing...

Never thought this game would ever be released on anything new... it's a great example of the indie game revolution and I'm glad to see it getting new life on Switch.

This could be fun if the combat is more arcade-like and not overly complicated.

Sonic Generations is next?

@keatonhj That doesn't appear to be true either... a simple search on Amazon for "earbuds low latency" will bring up a few options.

@Zidentia To my knowledge, no AirPods support low-latency codecs... so there will always be at least 150 - 200 ms of audio delay... not terrible, but not good enough for most people with regard to TV/movie/gaming audio sync.

Proper Low Latency is less than 40 ms.

@JaxonH That's not really true... there is a aptX Low Latency bluetooth codec... if the transmitter (Switch) and headphones/earbuds support aptX LL, the audio delay is essentially negligible unless you are really looking for it.

@Arehexes You are correct... but if the Switch were to support Low Latency (LL) codec and people could more readily buy earbuds that properly support LL, the problem would be solved.

Nintendo is probably waiting to see if wireless earbuds go this route. Right now, most LL bluetooth headphones are over-the-ear and designed for movie watching. Most earbuds only seem concerned to support the most recent HD audio codecs, which is great for music listening, but not for TV/movies/games.

@Jimmy_G_Buckets They probably (almost definitely) also have way more audio lag/latency.

The problem with wireless earbuds is that very few support Low Latency codec, which is essential for gaming. I'd bet that's why Nintendo doesn't allow you to simply connect earbuds via bluetooth.

Most gaming headsets have their own USB dongle and use a low latency connection... the receivers/headphones designed for movie watching do the same.

Connect Bluetooth earbuds to your phone and watch someone play a video game on Twitch to see what it's like.

If Mario 35 does come back... I really hope they make the games end quicker.

Mario Kart 99... the last 10 places keep getting eliminated until there are 9... then 3... 3 more... and a 3 person race for the win.

Ninja Gaiden II >>> Ninja Gaiden

I have no idea what is going on in that trailer... but I'm intrigued.

The wrong inputs on the Pro controller D-Pad are a much bigger problem than this...

@Tim_Vreeland It would appear so...

I see no ranking... only a list?

@mikegamer Assuming millions of copies are sold at $60... you will be, by definition of market value... wrong.

I loved Ducktales NES and still own the cartridge... haven't hooked up my NES in a while though.

The DuckTales remake was a lot like the original, except way slower and more boring in my opinion. The cutscenes were poorly paced and I didn't love the art-style overall.

All I want is for the Disney Afternoon Collection to come to Switch... this seems like a no-brainer, but licensing issues are likely to blame.

Optimus Prime... Metroid Prime... Amazon Prime... now Sonic Prime!

What does 3D Animated imply? I understand the difference with video games... no TV's are "3D" anymore... is it implying a certain computer generated animation style?

I was doing really well for the first half... ended with 13/20

This would make sense to me if defeating Ganon changed the game and/or created a save file that you couldn't go back into and explore... but it doesn't?

So I don't see the point of leaving the game "unbeaten"?

Seems like someone may have goofed up the Black Levels on the capture...

This is up my alley... I will probably get it once I finally finish The Messenger... and the Shovel Knight DLC campaigns... could be a while!

Cyber Shadow looks amazing... but I still haven't finished The Messenger... or the Shovel Knight DLC campaigns...

Glad it wasn't just me... I found DK Tropical Freeze to be extremely frustrating... poor controls, inconsistent jumps, confusing attacks... I have beat just about every Mario game (and Celeste for that matter) and I gave up quickly on DK.

The list is pretty silly... but 3D World and Yoshi should be on it.

@electrolite77

The market is never wrong.

The Bayo 3 devs must have been switched to a different project at some point? Maybe that game will be out this year?

The only reason other publishers charge less for ports and "older games" is because no one will buy them if they don't... people (including myself) readily pay higher/full prices for "old" Nintendo games.

Therefore, why would they charge less?

Anyone saying that the pricing is wrong/ridiculous/unfair needs to take a course in economics.

I don't know if people realize that in the WiiU version, Toad was way faster than the other characters, followed by Mario and Luigi, and Peach was crazy slow (but could float). This was pretty annoying when playing multiplayer since whoever was Toad was always waiting for others.

I'm guessing all four characters are now closer to or equal to the original Toad speed?

That Clay Skeet Shooting game looks hilariously bad...

I was REALLY hoping for a sequel... but I will still replay this on Switch... I just love the mess around co-op feel of the game.

The kick-stand was already low-effort... now it's even worse.
