I've only played 11, so I can't rate the entire series yet. They should rerelease all the other numbered enteries.
I tried to play DQ3 on Switch, but either the framerate or simply the way the screen moves is not fluid, it hurts my eyes and makes me dizzy. It's a terrible, unplayable port to me.
@Clyde_Radcliffe The SEGA AGES versions were released after the Christian Whitehead versions yet they were inferior which is unacceptable. They should have ported the Whitehead versions on Switch, but didn't for no reason
@COVIDberry I'm not against the idea, I'm sure a Mario Musou would be fun. We've seen Mario characters fight in Smash bros, so it can be done. I just think other series with the Musou formula would be better.
Mario doesn't seem ideal for a Musou game. There are so many series that would fit better like Xenoblade, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Naruto, Dragon Ball, Castlevania.....or another Hyrule Warriors
It's true that we don't always know what we want, but like you said, sometimes devs take risks and we end up with games like Metroid Other M, Star Fox Zero, Sonic Boom or Final Fantasy XIII. It's always a gamble.
Personally I've always loved the graphics of Wind Waker...but I prefer the darker realistic graphics and tone of Twilight Princess even if it didn't aged as well. TP feels more epic. It also doesn't feel unfinished like WW but that's an other argument
Controls were never the issue for me with SS. No way they're making me buy SS again with minor fixes, but hey for the people who like the game godspeed.
The game is good, but very disappointing for Zelda
I have nothing against the chibi style we got......but this looks so much better, it's actually what most of us want. Not sure why Game Freak can't figure this out
@BulbasaurusRex I don't know about that. I'm not an expert of upscaling and emulation, but I've seen DS, PSP and 3DS games being played on big screen through emulation and it looks fine. Emulators don't "redo" any graphics, it's simply upscaling and it looks good.
I also had a lot of fun with my DS games on Wii U, so I don't see any problem with 3DS on Switch.
@jamesthemagi It can't be that hard for most 3DS games I imagine, at least for the games I want ported. I haven't played much of the 3DS, but the second screen is often used for maps like in A Link Between Worlds, Samus Returns, Bravely Default and Second. Of course alterations will have to be done for all the touch controls and stuff, but it can be done, it's been done already
Heck all those Wii U games that were ported to Switch also had dual screen, so it's clearly not an issue
It's weird to me that Nintendo port so many Wii U games to the Switch but zero 3DS games. Even if they don't look as good, there are quite a few 3DS games I'd like to play on Switch
@nessisonett Well the point of 3D Allstar is to make a collection of 3D Mario adventures and 3D Land is a 3D game. It's different sure but it's still Mario, having it in there is only a plus for the player, so why not have it be in there?
@nessisonett It's obviously not a sudden thing this love for 3D Land, it's a respond to 3D Land being left out of 3D Allstar for no reason(because Nintendo were too lazy to remaster it for the Switch).
I'd he the happiest man alive if Ryan or Jason returned as Sonic. Sakurai could then patch Smash Ultimate just to put back "You're too slow" into the game XD

Re: Rumour: Sega Will Re-Release Sonic 3 & Knuckles In A New Sonic Collection
If it's gonna be on the same quality level as the lame SEGA AGES re-release of Sonic 1&2 then no thanks.
As I keep saying now, when it comes to Sonic I have to see it in action to be excited.

Re: Global Sales Data Suggests Balan Wonderworld Has Massively Flopped
The demo should have been a huge wake up call to delay the game for like another 2 years or something lol.
The demo really killed this game
