Still no collection with Metal Slug 1-7, that's so bad. I'm really disappointed in SNK. It's time, I love Metal Slug to bits! Go for it SNK, finally...
Raise prices even more Sony, especially the Pro variant so that everyday people won't be able to enjoy the escape from reality that they need (lately even more). Only rich ones will, but we all know that they have other, better 'activities'.
@GameTraderZero I'll order one more pair from you soon Thank you, I can play my retro/platformer/fighting/beat 'em up games normally thanks to that d-pad. And the RGB is great!
Come on, this is actually what we're waiting for. Cheesy, with zero story and fighting scenes with SF characters while we're eating popcorn and drinking soda. Can't wait for it!
Got Switch 1 joy-cons from them, the ones with d-pad. You know, the normal ones that should be in a package with Switch? Yeah, exactly the ones. Just like on screenshots. They're perfect, I recommend them.
If there will be offline mode, I'm getting Switch 2. I already need to get it because of Shenmue III. I'm waiting for the EU version with replaceable battery tho.
Oh man, I really waited for it. Well... I'll just play something else from my 300 other games then. I hate how little of a choice I have hehe. I'm happy that I chose Switch with physicals over Steam and PC.
@topher6490 Check out Skinny & Franko: Fists of Violence, it's great
Yeah... in the meantime for example Capcom gave us the ultimate Street Fighter Alpha 3 arcade version in Capcom Fighting Collection 2 as a free update. Well.
@Slideaway1983 I'm just saying how it is. I have zero sympathy for this company now, so maybe that's why I'm writing so grimly.
They're just terrible, how can you not check something like this? It's one of the most basic responsibilities for a company that publishes games. Even limited releases on top of that. It's just unthinkable and they even take no resosponsibility, because what they proposed - isn't even worth a laugh. It's a grim joke. And they admitted that they weren't checking this before during their QA process, something so basic. They're just not worth the trust.
Anyway... I'll keep bringing this example to everyone.
@Slideaway1983 They're offering a cellobag, their cellobag with a sticker on it. Not the foil/wrap that comes normally on a brand new box. They did below minimum and didn't resolve the problem like they should, so a reprint.
People were writing emails, writing under the post on X and no one got a reply. This is not how you solve a problem, so just screw them. I can live without their releases in the future and probably a lot of other people who got Vigil will as well.
@Slideaway1983 For people with sealed copies. Only. You know what I can do with my copy now? Yeah. Imagine the requirement for a refund it being still sealed. Don't play the games you're buying, what a stupid company.
And that's not a software error or some glitch. They didn't do their job properly and that's on them and the devs.
Since the time this happened I'm not buying anything from them ever again. Basic check if the game runs, this company is good for nothing. No reprints, no responsibility taken.
£35 for Switch 1 version, £60 for Switch 2 version. For what, literally for what? This isn't just insane anymore, this is a true robbery. I'd give this edition 5/10 myself, for making fools and idiots out of people.
No wonder, they know what's good. Switch is really a great console and became my favourite. Incredible library of games, great battery life in OLED version, good size and well, it's 2 in 1 (or even 4 in 1 if you have it moded: + Linux + Android).
I'll never, ever forget getting GBA, the first version with Mario Kart Super Circuit for my first own money that I earned. I had one of those small lights that you attached to it and played in the dark. GBA was like whole new world after GB and GBC. Mario Kart for GBA will always be no.1 on my list
I'm playing the hell out of The Last Ninja Collection. Christ, International Karate and IK+ still suck me up for hours. Can't believe it. Already finished all Last Ninja games, been playing since 2AM
Finally! No matter what, all portable devices should've had replacable batteries all the time, just like in the past. I'm more than happy that this comes back.
Well, there goes my €199,99 + shipping, even tho I don't have Switch 2. I'll get it at some point (future iteration), I don't have a choice now. Thank you for the news, I would know about it much later otherwise.
It's such a shame that it doesn't come out on Switch 1, even with much worse graphics. Nevertheless, time to order!
@JohnnyMind Oh that's so nice to hear, they deserved the support and the whole collection is just incredible and finally (almost) everywhere now.
That's exactly the thing, journalists have to be simply journalists in every sense of this word. That's all I'm asking, I hate misinformation in this day and age and how easily it is accepted by everyone.
@JohnnyMind Yeah, some people have to be more careful with their judgments because they might hurt innocent people. Like with this Rare situation and System 3.
System 3 is a small group of people who during The Last Ninja campaign on Kickstarter were incredible, completely transparent about everything and I as a backer got so many freebies from them already and not only this. We all got upgraded and will get better things, we even got free Switch codes before release, not even mentioning free Steam codes, also before release. I have no reason to not believe them in anything they say. They're honest, good and trustworthy people. I hate when publicity literally harms someone based on some post from God knows who.
"System 3 has revealed the cover artwork for the game, which, if we were being particularly unkind, looks like it was generated using AI – something the publisher has been guilty of in the past."
Which was based on some blusky post from someone who accused System 3 for using AI, even tho they said they didn't. So yeah, presumption of innocence is a myth now it seems.

Good, save yourself $59.99 on Ubislop's cash grab of a game that didn't need any remake. If you really want it, get a copy for Switch 1.
