I already said thank you to Nintendo for their new invention. I actually ditched Ally X for now, because I'm playing The Hundred Line on my Switch and this is what I'll be doing on launch day. But I promise to visit here, to read and see what's going on.
@FragRed Oh I had completely no idea about this, thank you! I owned C64 for a long time and these versions of games are the closest one to me.
@Suketoudara I played all of them, emulated tho. I would really like to finally give them my money. The problem is that I can't...
@JumpingJackson A friend of mine has this re-relase, I love this game! This should be possible, you know, nothing's impossible if you really want something. They're important and great titles and should be released, even at least as digitals.
@Suketoudara On top of that they were NES versions. I dream about a collection with all the Dizzy games from all the platforms. This just has to happen in the near future. I have no idea what kind of deal they made with Blaze to make this happen actually.
@FragRed It would be about time for this. Look at System 3, they had a Kickstarter campaign and are releasing Last Ninja + IK + Bangkok Knights games collection very soon, even as physicals on Switch and other consoles.
This is just insane, 4 years after acquisition! If they'll destroy Codies then I'll never, ever buy anything that will be published by EA. I'm with Codies since C64, they made so many good games during all those years...
Imagine buying a console and not having access to internet. Good job Nintendo, very smart. I'll never buy any of your new hardware. Now imagine buying Switch 2 hypothetically many years later (for whatever reason, even as a collector) where Nintendo doesn't exist anymore. Good brick
@DonkeyKongBigBoy I will, but not on Switch 2 for sure. Just like I'm playing Capcom's fighting games from late 90's and early 00's right now (all their fighting collections).
Capcom... you know where you can put this "physical" release of yours? It's not enough that it's a physical DRM? Code in a box for DLC with an expiration date on top of that? This will go so well for them. Makes zero sense to buy this crap now.
I absolutely agree! I ordered physical copy as soon as I found out that Too Kyo Games had financial problems. Game is insane, I'm going back to it after Capcom marathon that I had this weekend.
I'm literally dot to dot with what Ollie Reynolds wrote. This weekend is insanely nostalgic for me, Capcom's fighting games all the time. Primarly CvS2, but I'll be switching between games. It's incredible to relive moments of my childhood by playing these games again. Online works really well! I have to go
Mortal Kombat 11 is all that I needed, never touched MK1 and probably never will. There's even Rambo, Terminator and RoboCop there... what else could you possibly want or need?
@mcnutty88 Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection is absolutely number one. Then this one is second and I'd say that Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection would be the third one.
I just got the physical copy from VGP! This is all I ever wanted, now I have every Capcom fighting game (along with their other collections) that I used to play at the arcades and that I then emulated on my PC. Thanks Capcom, really good job!
Tariffs for the retail packaging? Not everyone lives in US if he's talking about the truth. Half-truths, that's what he's saying. More then twice the budget? Man, I hope they spent at least 1/10 of it on catching up bugs, so that they'll release a flawless product.
@donv2135 I know, right? He should make new ones, who will actually convince him to buy digital if he really wants the game and not this game key card scam hahah. I couldn't...
Yakuza 0 of course for those who didn't play it... and Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S is a complete joke. Doubles Mode could be easily added to old Switch version, nothing really there to justify second dip shrug or to support Sega to do something like this. You can just buy the old version much cheaper for £20.00 on Amazon and get it fully on cart, not as a game key card.
Man, even some emulators of older consoles are doing better job at presenting games in16:9. This is very disappointing from Capcom, but I'm waiting for Playasia's physical release. I love Onimusha series and the second one is great. If you never played it, now's your chance. It's finally free from the PS2 limbo hell! By the way, the fixed camera angles... I love them, so that's a plus for me! Thanks for the review and guys, just get it.
I'll buy food for that $60 and get some other good game for $20, how does that sound Randy? Mybe if this game would be flawless upon release, maybe then. Remember Borderlands 3? You expect people to buy your buggy games for even a higher price now? Forget about patches after release, deal? You're raising prices, then I demand more or rather something that should be normal.
Oh God... I have the old one with stick, but I'll get this as well. Guys, you have no idea how comfortable this solution is. I got to test something almost identical at my friend's place.
Actually... with the nice hardware, we might see simultaneous releases along with other platforms, no more waiting for the 'special' Switch release. Will it become primary partner? I really doubt, like Max said, PlayStation & PC will always be kings. If Switch 2 will join them, hey, it's a win.
@StewdaMegaManNerd I chose Ally X... at this point, I just gave up. GOG has most of my favorite games and the ones that I wanted to play and Steam for few others. No more waiting for releases and being treated like and afterthought while owning Switch. Still, I do use Switch because I love it and I have over 200 physicals for it.
I remember playing Tokimeki on Game Boy Color. That was something else back then, I liked it but never played any other ones later on. It was in Japanese, so I didn't know what I was doing most of the time, but It was something fresh back then.
@PJOReilly Same here, I just need to play online asap (chose express delivery from Playasia)! I think that Capcom at this point gave us everything precious that they had back in the days with all the collections. I wish you countless wins

Hey, don't look at me. I love pixelated graphics and I'm used to waiting for my games to load. I was raised on C64 and cassette tapes!
