It’s about time the NES Contra is available. I’d pay double for these as physical releases, however.

Dear Google,
Nope!

It's quite simple:
If it's $60 and you're willing to pay $60, then buy it if you like.
If it's $60 and you're not willing to pay $60, then don't buy it.

@Scottwood101 I’m really hoping Metroid Dread as well.

How long will it be until the NFC chips start to “die”?

@Apollocreed I have a simple five step process to solve your issues.
1.) take a deep breath
2.) go back and read this entire thread
3.) realize that you seem to be the only one in this particular thread making the points you are trying to make rather than generalizing for the millions of other Switch users.
4.) understand that your only posts on NintendoLife are on this single thread.
5.) stop trolling this group

You’re welcome.

I want one with the size and ergonomics of the Wii U gamepad.

Wii Sports DX

It's interesting that the math in the article and the math in the comments section are quite a bit different (to the tune of 5-6 million units).

@kuzronk YES on Heart of Darkness. I loved that game!

I want a swappable cover that says Out Of This World so it displays more like I remember my North American copies from my childhood. Another World has never been the real name for me (even though Out Of This World was the oddity).

I wonder if this is why I can't redeem my eShop card. I've been trying for about 3 hours and it still isn't recognized.

I have never played a Pokémon game, so all of the comments filled with name drops of the characters are cracking me up!
From the outside looking in it’s like this conversation is in a different language. 😂

I've enjoyed it so far.

**sarcasm mode on**

Maybe they can put 21 Savage music in these to make them “hip” for the current generation of gamers.

**sarcasm mode off**

@Alto getting used to the funky jump physics and the slow down is rather interesting.

@bluesun said: "Hiyoko means 'chick' as in a newly-hatched bird."

Sounds like a name for the GameBoy emulator to me. Especially since 2019 is the 30th anniversary.

The 30th Anniversary of GameBoy is this year. There's one of the emulators.

The 2nd Anniversary of Switch is in March. We can expect something to happen then, hopefully.

Nintendo just stopped production of the NES and SNES Classic consoles. Makes sense for them to stop production and sell through stock before releasing all of those Classic console games on Switch Online.

Who is Blue Toad and why is he significant?

I have always enjoyed 2D Super Mario Bros. games more than their 3D counterparts.

It's beautiful and it's fun to play. That's why I'm buying it.

The question is, are people actually paying those prices, or are sellers just asking for those prices? I have an unopened one with NintendoLand sitting at home as well. Maybe I should sell it for $790.00 lol

I was excited for this game 2-3 years ago, but I've pretty much lost all enthusiasm for it.

I would rather see Vanessa Z. Schneider from P.N.03 in Smash.

I personally found Red Dead Redemption2 to be slow, sluggish, and the tank controls are just hard to enjoy. That and the fact that you can't climb even the slightest hill without sliding down is really irritating. Breath of the Wild > RDR2.

I'm hoping there is a code so we can change the blood to sweat. I want it to look like MK on the SNES!

I've been waiting since it released for a drop in price on Switch. I just can't justify it for $60.00 when it's $20.00 or less on PS4.

I'm okay with this. Waiting longer for a more polished experience will be worth it.

These are the games/franchises I want revisited:
Cadillacs and Dinosaurs
Demon's Crest
Final Fight
Ghosts 'N Goblins/Ghouls 'N Ghosts
Gun.Smoke
Knights of the Round
Little Nemo: The Dream Master
Lost Planet
Magic Sword
Saturday Night Slam Masters
Trojan
U.N. Squadron

@kepsux I teach kids. I literally create the future.

I see Elon Musk as nothing more than a snake oil salesman.

Man, what I wouldn't give for Nintendo to make some XL or XXL joy cons for those of us who have large hands. I just can't play the Switch in handheld mode without cramping up within minutes.

In my opinion, a perfect handheld would be the size and shape of the Wii U gamepad. That was the only “handheld” that was comfortable enough to allow me to play for more than 20 minutes without terrible hand cramps.

Pre-ordered this at Best Buy the second I saw the notice. My complete Amiibo collection is still intact.

Super Aleste is probably my favorite SHMUP on the SNES. Either that or R-type 3.

Are releases from Special Reserve as difficult to get ahold of as ones from Limited Run Games?

I like how Reggie keeps Metroid in our consciousness whenever he is interviewed. I am so ready for a new Metroid entry. Heck, I'd even take the Prime Trilogy on Switch at this point! I could use another run-through of that series in the lead to Metroid Prime IV.

I have to wonder how GBC games will look blown up on a 65" 4K television.

Is there a physical copy coming?

@BladedKnight They are giving me what I want. I'm allowed to be satisfied.

I'm loving Switch Online and have had ZERO issues with it at all. $20 a year is dirt cheap and I'll gladly spend that much each year without even thinking about it.

Although not Smash related, I can't wait for that Shovel Knight 3-pack. I've had mine on pre-order since day one!

I own literally every single amiibo figure but I don't know why. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for Simon and Richter Belmont figures, though. Man, those would be awesome!

@eripmav I would be willing to pay double the price of a PS4 release if you did a Limited Run Games version for Switch. Everything about this game that I have seen over the past few years has continually hit me right, smack in the nostalgia.

Ahhh...so, if they would have just had that 41st person, then Mega Man would go through doors correctly

I remember buying this game because it had a Type O Negative song on it.

I would be happy with a form factor that actually fits in the hands of a 6’ tall adult.

Bring on the NES goodness! I, for one, am absolutely delighted that I get to play these games on the go on the Switch. Instead of hauling some other device and trying to find a TV available, all that is needed is a Switch and a charger. I've literally been dreaming of this since I got my original Gameboy for Christmas in 1989. The future (from 1989) is NOW!

I just received "SNES Omnibus: The Super Nintendo and its Games, Vol. 1 (A-M)" by Brett Weiss. Excellent stuff there!
My other favorite might be "Ultimate Nintendo: Guide to the NES Library (1985-1995)" by Pat Contri.

Glad I waited. Physical rules; digital drools.
