@LastFootnote I'm curious, what benefits would Super Game Boy support have when the GBC palette seems to have more colors?

@Hoshiko I used to play a lot of Dr Kawashima's Brain Training, so I care.

@Porky Oh, don't get me wrong, I wish it had a way to listen to the music offline as well. My point was that I'm not sure if it makes big enough of a difference to most people for Nintendo to patch it. Especially since the music is in Nintendo Music already.

@Porky I doubt many people would keep playing Splatoon games after the online play closes. I personally really enjoyed the single player, though. But even so, I don't have much interest in playing it again.

Great addition, F-Zero X has so many great tracks.

@Flashlink99 It's not only the fault of Grove Street Games. Rockstar's QA really messed up here. They should've tested it properly and not rushed it out before it was finished. Bad quality assurance, too tight schedule and limited funds can break even the greatest developers. And the responsibility of those three is with the publisher.

@AnonyQ Perhaps, but it's still kind of a ***** thing to do. They worked on this game so it feels petty to remove them from the splash screens, even if they're still listed on the credits.

@YunoboCo While DKC2 soundtrack only has 36 songs on Nintendo Music, it's weird to imply it's not a "real" soundtrack when it has some amazing tracks.

I'm personally happy that they've so far added a new soundtrack every week.

This is good news. Highly recommend Arkham Asylum, that is by far the best in the series. Arkham City is good too, and so is Arkham Knight but not on the Switch.

@Jayenkai I much prefer that the videos are in the game files, because that way the game will be fully playable even in the far future.

@SilentBluntman Unfortunately DLSS isn't just "plug and play". It needs to be implemented by a patch because internally it requires motion vectors in addition to the image itself. That said, I do hope they give developers the opportunity to patch older Switch titles for Switch 2. But in the worst case scenario, Switch 2 should have more than enough raw power to increase the framerate in games that currently struggle.

Unfortunately it doesn't look smooth at all due to that weird 31.5fps. It's not due to lack of power either, so I hope Sega fixes this and makes it 30fps. That said, it does look very nice otherwise.

@ParadoxFawkes I don't mind unofficial videogame music channels as long as they are not monetized (if they are, they deserve to be taken down). However, official solution is always better, whether it's an app, official Youtube channel or uploading them to Tidal/Spotify/Apple music etc.

That said, I'm glad they didn't go with a Youtube channel because Youtube kind of sucks as a music platform. I wouldn't mind having these tracks on Tidal, though.

That looks alarmingly similar to 8bitdo Ultimate C.

@Zeebor15 Far as we know, they could be using a different build of their SNES emulator from NERD.

@IceClimbersMain While I haven't played Palworld, I don't think video game sales are in direct correlation with quality of the game. I think big part of Palworld's success is the "shock" of seeing Pokémon-like characters with guns, and it certainly helps that there aren't many monster catching games on PC/Xbox. Then there's also GamePass which helped.

Now, recent Pokémon games certainly have had their share of issues, and the series has definitely dropped in quality over time. But I don't think sales are a good meter for quality.

We don't know much about the case so this is all just speculation and conjecture. I doubt most people here (me included) even know the patent system well enough to comment about it.

As far as I know, patents in US do not have anything to do with a case set in Japan. This article talks about patents that were filed in US after the release of Palworld. But when were they filed in Japan? That's what matters.

I tried Brawlhalla and couldn't really get into it. Maybe I just played it wrong, but it felt kind of shallow and repetitive.

Enjoying some Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection and continuing Dual Destinies in the Apollo Justice Ace Attorney Collection.

@anoyonmus They wouldn't. I was just replying to a message about whether it would be possible on a technical level.

@Dom_31 We already have Smash Bros. Nintendo Land was amazing as well, hope they bring it back some day.

@stinkyx Not only is it a beautiful game and certainly too much for Switch, but it has some fairly advanced physics simulations as well. But then again, Luigi's Mansion 3 had some very impressive stuff, so who knows? Maybe it could be done if Sony had any interest in it.

I think 399€ is a reasonable price for Switch 2, considering that Switch OLED costs 349€.

@Yalloo I think The Impossible Lair is by far the better of the two. But it really comes down to whether you prefer collectathons or DKC style platformers.

Maybe comparing themselves to Beatles wasn't particularly good idea, but the sentiment isn't actually that bad. If you take risks, sometimes you will inevitably fail. However, if you don't take risks, you will likely never make anything worthwhile.

Looks great, but Lite is too much of a compromise when you compare it to the OLED model.

Haunted Castle Revised is absolutely amazing! Definitely worth checking out.

Super excited for this collection!

Up to 95% off! The only problem is, games that are 95% off are never games that are worth owning.

Used to be a big fan of Renegade Kid and early Atooi, but this is just ridiculous. They have lost my trust completely.

It's a card game. Nothing needs to be done, except stop giving them artificial value through scarcity. Collectors who are in it for value alone are the worst, and I personally wouldn't mind it if the whole CCG market crashed.

@cyrus_zuo SteamWorld Build wasn't developed internally by Image & From (these days part of Thunderful). This game is. And I'd personally rate it higher than NintendoLife did.

I have to say, I'm pleasantly surprised by the challenge in this game. I'm playing on Experienced difficulty (which is the default), and one boss took me three times to beat. There has also been plenty of missions that I've beaten first try, but with only a single survivor. That said, there are two easier settings and two harder settings, not to mention a custom difficulty setting. So plenty of options fitting various skill levels.

@NinChocolate Haven't completed the game yet, but it doesn't seem like it connects to the original storywise, outside of a couple of small references. It's a different cast of characters in a different setting, so I think you can just jump in to this game if you want to.

I've been playing this for around 10 hours, and it has been amazing so far. If you liked the original, you will like the second one as well.

Now, the missions themselves are by far the best part of the experience, and the overworld exploration and ship combat feel a bit shallow in comparison, but it's nice to see them try something a bit more ambitious this time.

@ScalenePowers But these aren't HD 2D. They're just regular pixel art, although the art was touched up in these pixel remasters when compared to the original.

It's super impressive that this game runs reasonably well on Switch.

Could be fun I guess, but hard to say. There have been some fantastic Apple Arcade games that later came to Switch, such as Grindstone, so there's hope at least.

Chronological order is not the way to go. The best order is the release order. It keeps certain things a mystery for an appropriate amount of time. For example, playing 358/2 Days before KH2 spoils certain things in KH2 and makes them less impactful in my opinion.

@Daniel36 I think "roguelite" is often a preferred term over "roguelike" because it has more wiggle room. Procedurally generated levels with other random elements, but may actually play nothing like Rogue otherwise.

Considering the delisting, the right thing to do would be to put it on -80% sale.

Is it what fans want?

YES!

@nessisonett That Asterix game looks much better, though. This is an impressive project for sure, but that extreme texture warping really needs to be improved.

Metroid Prime Remastered is the best looking Switch game by far, so this shouldn't be a big surprise. There are other impressive looking games on Switch, but they're often 30fps (or lower). This is looking really impressive for a 60fps game.

The footage we saw is clearly from the beginning of the game. It's way too early to say anything about the gameplay. I do hope we'll see some cool new upgrades at the very least.

Visually it looks solid too. Not that different from Metroid Prime Remastered, which is a good thing since that game looked great for a Switch game. Remember, they're targeting 60fps here. For a 60fps game, it looks pretty damn good.

Looks pretty good, although I do prefer Link's Awakening cover art.

@Anti-Matter It's a crime for sure, but prison? Sounds a bit harsh if you ask me. A fine is more than enough.

The whole Metroid Prime 4 situation is just embarrassing. Not the fact that they restarted development (that's perfectly fine and likely for the best) but the fact that they announced it when they didn't have anything to show.

Thankfully we got Metroid Dread which is in my opinion the best Metroid since Zero Mission. Metroid Prime Remastered was good too.

Excited to see this, but I'm even more excited for Mina the Hollower. Wish they would've given us a release date.

@russell-marlow Couldn't disagree more. The artstyle is lovely and far from low-effort. Also, the gameplay is part of the reveal trailer so it's not false advertising in any sense of the word.

@Jireland92 I think it would only cause confusion to change the name at this point. Roguelikes aren't always like Rogue either, but I think roguelike is still a fine name for the genre.
