Well, sadly there is not a single good realistic modern take on the switch. Therefore one has to settle with a fun-oriented version. And of those for sure the best one is the NES-Kunio-Kun game bundled together with all the other Kunio-Kun and Double Dragon bundle WHICH YOU FAILED TO MENTION!!!! facepalm
This reminds me of Hob. But Hob was a little nicer to look at...
Dang, they used Marks insight. This should make for some good dungeon designs if they really understood him!
I really like the idea of Garafarig's back turning into a nightmarish creature!
Pinsir just needs a good signature move - something akin to Megahorn. Or some utility moves like Wide Guard. Or simply Fake Out. His stats are good enough, I think and his coverage, too.
No crazy courses? Count me in! I always loved the first three courses in Mario Golf 64 and despised the later three because they were to wild to play a chilled round on them. Leave the whackiness for the inevitable DLC - I like standard courses in my Mario Golf!
It looks really good in my opinion. The only thing I don't like is the number of locations. Six locations? As in six courses? I want more variety!!! The original on N64 already had six courses and those were never enough. Especially because the back half was to hard for just a nice relaxing round of golf. I played the first three to death and always wished for more back then...
I adore Dragon Quest XI. I think it's one of the top 3 games on Switch. But I did not beat the endboss cause doing that would mean a ton of grinding to become strong enough. And that is something not worth my time (even if I miss out on a spectacular ending). The rest of the game was so wonderful I really feel I got enough (and even more) out of it.
Problem with those free things is you need a credit card to pay the shipping cost. No other payment method not even paypal. I don't have a credit card...
This is the game that got the most playtime in my childhood. I spent hundreds of hours on this and clearly have to go with the European version with its standoff and the iconic fireballed title.
A game in which you can have only a double jump OR a dash can't be overly complex. This fact combined with the blocky design makes it a hard pass, sadly.
Eternal Darkness Resident Evil 4 Prince of Persia: The Warrior Within (I consider this horror, with the Dahaka chasing you around and the metal soundtrack)
I see a good amount of great designs - like some of them even better than a lot of newer pokemon. But the names? What happened to the names? A lot of them are ridiculus or even plainly bad.
Well, I do not care for the game but the song in the trailer is AWESOME! I have to look this band up, immediately!
I never thought I would find a band sounding this similar to Fair to Midland!
I am with Gamefreak on this decision. I love all the legendaries being cut and while it's hard to accept some of the losses this will put some mons in the focus who are overshadowed otherwise.
I have to say I like the decision to cut all the former legendaries. This way other pokemon can shine. Cutting that many 'normal' mons is a tough pill to swollow but all in all I am with Gamefreak on the cutting decision. This does not mean I accept the sub-par graphics though!!!

This is still one of the best games ever made - shame it wasn't re-released on a later console.
