@ComposedJam self-censorship at best. It's like saying it's censorship when they change pop culture references(like mentioning local celebrities/movies which tend to get localized so the target audience understands the joke).

You can't blame the companies. They have to choose between upsetting a handful of sweaty Japan-fetishists and alienating a bigger group op potential buyers who don't feel comfortable looking up the skirt of barely clothed 15 year old girls.

The otaku neckbeard crybabies are always holding everything back. That's why anime/manga is still seen as some pervy stuff.

Like when Tokyo Mirage Sessions was released. Instead of celebrating a great localization (a niche game for a niche console) , they were crying and boycotting the game because the upskirts of underage girls were toned down. That's not censoring, that's localizing and taking cultural differences in consideration.

Same with Xenoblade Chronicles X.

Why the Switch Mini? I thought people always brought their Switch to rooftop parties, used the kickstand and gave a joycon two each player, while laughing and highfiving the crowd that cheers them on.

We all know Travis Touchdown is next

lol @ Shantae

The DLC character would cost more than the games on sale (which they are every other week)

"All I can say is that I don’t think we can just make the same thing again. So we’d have to come up with a very unique twist on this if we do make another one."

Yeah, like they do with all those Pokémon Rumble games. Such unique twists.

@Ryu_Niiyama 'Mainstream gamers' 😂😂😂

Loved both games. I do hope they bring back that open world of one, but with a more interesting world to explore.

The Switch keeps struggling with most Unreal Engine games. Wouldn't be surprised if it's also the reason why we still haven't seen any Shin Megami Tensei V gameplay.

@Nomad There are a ton of creative games on the PS4 with great gameplay. There is no such thing as 'THE future', there are multiple paths forward. VR is also one of them and the PSVR is amazing.
Astro Bot, Tetris Effect, Rez, Trover Saves the Universe, Beat Saber, Super Hot, Blood and Truth and so on. And that's just PSVR.

Then you got the Yakuza series, fighting games like Street Fighter, Soul Calibur and Tekken, Persona 5.

Saying that PS4 prefers graphics over gameplay is like saying Nintendo is for children.

@AlphaElite Splatetris?

That should've been Splatris

100 points, that's just playing one game.

I love both my Switch and my PS4 + PSVR.

Both doing innovative things. There is no reason to not own both these days. Fanboys only hurt themselves. You're missing out on some great content.

I used to be a fanboy when it was Sega vs Nintendo. Missed out on so many great games. Luckily I changed my mind when the Dreamcast came around.

@impurekind magazines used to print screenshots and hi res art, they didn't take photos of the crt screen. Watch an actual capture of Goldeneye running on N64 hardware on youtube and you will see how blurry it actually is. Most games were running in 320x240. We made a lot of progress in the last 13 years.

@JR150 yeah, imagine a English dubbed game in TOKYO. That's almost as bad as the English dubbed Yakuza games.

@impurekind crt's didn't scale better. It just looked blurrier. Try Turok 2/RageWars in low res and hi res mode, and you see the difference. The N64 was not that sharp as in your screenshots. Especially Goldeneye.

The Banjo screenshots aren't wrong, the problem is that you're viewing them on a modern screen. Display them on your CRT and they are exactly how they should look.

A N64 mini would probably use upscaling like all those Virtual Console releases had. Looks better, but far from accurate, just like the video.

The N64 picture quality was pretty bad. The texture filtering, fog effects and 3D were impressive, but the output was muddy compared to the PSX and especially the Dreamcast a few years later (even when comparing 640x480 res games)

@impurekind this is similar to how it would look on a modded N64 with UltraHDMI, which is the best quality (that is pixel clarity, not blurred). You might prefer the blurred look of analog output though, I had the same with VGA vs SCART on the Dreamcast. Games like Marvel vs Capcom 2 would look ugly on VGA because of the pixelated characters. It looks smooth on SCART(I'm also from Europe)

@Zequio That's why the Blackberry Key2 is the best gaming phone.

Tetris DS with the keyboard.
DS screens fit perfectly on the display

@impurekind The screenshots are from running on actual hardware (or at least the resolution). This is how it will look on a N64.

The Wii U Pro Controller is way better than the Switch version.

Symmetric sticks (the Switch version is asymmetric to match the joycons) and a D-pad that isn't broken.

It's a shame the Switch doesn't support it out of the box.

Gotta respect Ubi Soft for supporting older platforms.

Nintendo could've ported most Switch games to the Wii U with very few effort, but never bothered.

9.2GB is massive?

It isn't massive. And if it was: I prefer a bigger file size over crappy compressed audio

A D-Pad would be great...

As long as it's not as terrible as the Pro Controller one.

Just Dance is my guilty pleasure, love playing this with my girlfriend. Neckbeards wouldn't understand

@Dirty0814 what are you on? Sony always has great discounts. Like triple A titles for less than $10 great

@Octane Blood & Truth is amazing

Damn, I'm probably better at Tetris 99 than this legend. Won 150+ times out of less than 450 games.

Tetris is indeed the perfect game. Although there is no way NES/Gameboy Tetris is better than the modern versions. The modern version is the perfect one.

@Kalmaro why they wouldn't? Because Nintendo would never allow anything on the Xbox. Never ever ever

@N64-ROX @Mr_Pepperami The Turok games aren't emulated. Turok 1 & 2 were released on the PC years ago and the remastered versions are based on those ports. Apparently the Banjo-Kazooie games in Rare Replay were Xbox 360 ports, so maybe those will be ported to the Switch, but I doubt it. A remake would make more sense in the light of Crash/Spyro.

But enough Banjo-Kazooie, I want a Blast Corps remake/reboot.

@Mr_Pepperami The problem with Rare replay is that they would have to rewrite the emulators because of the different system architecture. It could be especially challenging to get the N64 and Xbox games running smoothly. Also, it's 50GB.

And we haven't seen any N64 games released on the Switch. I highly doubt the first one would be from Microsoft.

Remaster Banjo-Kazooie + Banjo-Tooie like Crash Bandicoot/Spyro. Release on Xbox and Switch. That would be the only option to make some cash. A new version would be hard, because the original dev team left.

@Alucard83 It would be really expensive because the CPU, GPU aren't produced anymore. That's why you only see emulation and FPGA-based solutions. The original hardware isn't there anymore, and is probably more expensive to make than modern hardware. Especially in lower volumes.

@BulbasaurusRex you're lying bruah. The Wii sold more than 100 million and FIFA games on the platform didn't even hit the one million.

You're just making stuff up.

Nobody was playing FIFA on the Wii, cut it out.

Tiger Woods PGA tour sold better than FIFA on the Wii. Hell even PES sold better.

@BulbasaurusRex the PS2 did not sell 40 times more than the GC. Even the OG Xbox version outsold the GC version 6 to 1.

Do some research. If a better Switch version would sell well, they would make one because EA loves money. It's just not worth it. It will never come close to the PS4 version, so all FIFA players will stick to the PS4. This is a huge community, you can't just move them to another platform that is technically inferior

@BulbasaurusRex no they didn't. Fifa 06 on the PS2 outsold the GC version about 40 times.

It's not even close. The usual Nintendo fanboys who always whine about sports games never buy them anyway. All my co-workers play FIFA. None of them was ever like: let's play fifa and then pulled out a Switch. Nobody was playing FIFA on the Wii or Gamecube. It was always Playstation and Xbox

Blame Nintendo for the underpowered hardware and the Nintendo fans for their lack of interest. They never supported games like FIFA.

The target audience of FIFA is on the other consoles, it would make zero sense to put a lot of effort into the Switch version because nobody will buy it anyway.

@Lone_Beagle get outta here, Nintendo is always the party pooper. Always whining about streamers, let's play videos, leaks, fangames and so on.

Lol @ all the comments. People still fall for the bait.

You gotta respect the marketing machine that is PETA.

Banjo wouldn't make any sense, unless Banjo kazooie would be announced for the Switch.

Cuphead

And Ecco the Dolphin

Why is there an article about Banjo-Kazooie posted on this website like every other week?

@Timsworld2 There was a Youtube upload function in Sm4sh

Please nerf Kirby, I'm still way overpowered in Elite Smash.

Where is Guilty Gear X?

That game was amazing on the Dreamcast and way ahead of it's time (was released in 2000)

This will be on sale like any other Capcom/RE game.

Maybe I'll pay €15 for it. Although I never finish RE games for some reason.

Nintendo stans are defending 30fps race games now? 😂

@Galarian_Lassie racing transformed was nearly unplayable on the Wii U. Especially after playing MK8

@60frames-please lol, this is the worst troll gimmick account I've ever seen.

**Imma comment everywhere that 60fps is better** Liek duh

684 points in Tetris 99 at the moment. This is too easy

@YANDMAN I pay way more in taxes. Don't care.

And this is a one time $10... that is totally optional.

I bought it because I spent more than 30 hours in Tetris 99 and you will get the second DLC, hopefully with 1v1 Tetris online.

I never saw so much whining about €10.
