LEGEND_MARIOID

The household have played Mario Kart 8 DX extensively. You'd expect the majority of those tracks to feature again in MKW or at least many new ones appear? No?

Both look sweet. Especially MKW of course!

That seems okay. I got it wrong before thinking we had to buy an entirely new game. I have some things to finish off in TOTK despite "completing it".

I love ShadowxSonic Generations but I'm not buying a Switch 2 version when I can play the Switch 1 version on the same console (?). Yeah, upgraded visuals and all, but it's the stellar gameplay which I love.

Raidou and Yakuza 0 please.

Surely we get the stellar P3Remaster on the Switch 2!

We will need the extra content from the 3DS version to make it definitive and worthy of a double dip

I liked the game on the 3DS. I'm not sure I want to double dip though. It's good, but not THAT good

Insta-buy. Awesome news

Yeah. Couldn't get into the demo of the firsy game. Would have loved a proper mech game which it seemed at the time. Will monitor its sequel though.

Not buying physical for this. Ridiculous

Fantastic stuff. Almost definitely an insta-buy

Wow. Another gem getting ported.

@andyg1412 Thanks

7 /10 or a 7.5/10

Some real surprises as to the 3rd party ports there. Hopefully we see them soon and well optimized. Silksong, MK World, Kirby announcements and 3D DK were highlights, but a lot a very interesting stuff there.

Not interested as of now in "enhanced visual remasters" of NS1 games.

Could have seen more first party stuff, was surprised we didn't.

Also microSD express cards aren't plentiful and not produced in that high a storage yet.

3D platforming DK is back for the new gen?! What?! I'd do a Diddy Kong summersault if I could.

Did not play as much of it as I should have back in the day. Redemption awaits. Good news again.

I must confess as being ignorant to the existence or potential existence of a Borderlands 4. Good news. Not top of my list, but welcome as part of the library to choose from.

It's good this project will still be going into the next gen. Can purchase as 1-4 as well?!

Woah. Great news. Thought Nintendo had forgotten about them or were just going to shelve them in favour of remastered editions

I'll need more info and footage on these before consideration. Interesting news again, though

Good news. I like the series. I like also where is it set in the timeline before TOTK as well.

Excellent news. As big as the MK World announcement for me!

Very, very interested!!!

Well NS2 version it is then

@somebread I see. I'll look into that but I'm not hugely motivated for this particular news as of now.

A great actor. So many good performances and a very recognisable face in film. 65 is too young. Rest peacefully and thank you.

Some LCDs look as good if not better. But we shall see. The butter smooth fps potential is welcome. Hope devs design games to achieve it

Dangnamit. That 1.5TB card I have spare isn't an express. Ah well, more expense. Lol.

I'm not as familiar with this game as others. Other than "knowing" the name of the game and that it was apparently a fun 3D platformer.

It sounds like a polished remaster actually and one for 3D platforming fans as well as those who want to relive nostalgia. The mechanics working nicely is the key for me.

However, I have a metric tonne on my backlog so this will likely be a discounted purchase.

Cheers for the review.

The Wii U Miimaker creator app was my most used app of all time, lol. Made all kind of weird and wonderful characters.

Insta-buys: Metroid Prime 4, Pokemon Z-A, Tomodatchi Life "2", Rhythm Heaven, DQ 1-II 2D-HD.

Most likely : Gradius Collection, Raidou, AI Somnium Files game, Marvel game

Lots of other good looking games there though tbf

I am interested in 20 out of those 35 !

Probably nothing for me this week unless the reviews come up with a "surprise" for me.

EDIT: Bubble Ghost reminds me of the excellent Soul Bubbles DS. I'll look into that one

Free enhancements only please!

I'll need reviews for some, but there is 12 games I am really interested in there. No pap.

Really looking forward to this.

Sweet news. Love Gradius and we get Salamander III as well!

Better than nothing though it seems quite limited. Maybe it'll expand and evolve in the future

Good, good stuff. I love the DQ series but I don't think 1 & 2 originals have aged that well. This HD-2D remake was sorely needed IMO.

Always wanted to try this. However with a fair few other interesting games from the Direct I may download it a bit later on in the NS1's life.

At last. At the death of the Switch but better late than never. Hello, old friend (Rhythm Heaven series)

I'll take this being an SMT fan and devour it whole. Thank you very muchly (sorry).

I think we need context here. This is the deep winter of the amazing conosle that is the Switch 1. The Direct wasn't going to pull up any trees. Tamodachi Life 2, Rhythm Heaven Switch, Metroid Prime 4 had me thinking we should have had these games earlier in the Switch's life. Insta-buys.

Strange we had no Layton update (I suspect it gets moved to NS2) & no date for DQ 1&2 Remakes. Also the 2026 release date was interesting. Is the NS1 expected to co-exist with NS2 comfortably? I suppose it doesn't matter with NS2 being backwards compatible.

A few other very interesting games that I'll definitely look into (Gradius Collection with S3!, Monument Valley Trilogy, Raidou Remastered, Marvel Cosmic Invasion).

Pokemon Z of course is a insta-buy.

Contextually a 6-7/10 direct IMO.

My kinda thang actually. So I am down.

I'm so bad at the game series (IMO) but love it. Great news. Kind of "about time" as well.

It'll sell well. Maybe not 8DX levels, but it'll sell

@Falien I absolutely loved Pipemania. I think I discovered a couple of cheap 89p pipemania clones in the eShop. They were on sale. Their names escape me though (despite me downloading one of them!)

Interesting but I think I'll pass

Mario Galaxy 2
DQ X (offline)
Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn
Yoshi and Poochi's Wooly World
Luigi's Mansion 1 HD
METROID PRIME 4
Rhythm Heaven Switch Edition
Zelda Windwaker HD
Wario Land Shake Dimension HD
Excite Truck and Excitebots!
Sin and Punishment 2 HD (with gyro)

It's time.... NS1 is going out with a bang baby.

I've got a soft spot for breakout style games. I even download clone breakout games with their own theme or take. I appreciate may seem average to others.

So an actual breakout series game that is reviewed by reliable reviewers as good I am sure I'd get a lot out of. The review content has me really interested.

Cheers for the review.

It's on my wishlist. I'll defo give it a strong consideration if it reviews well. I like this dev's work.
