@Mangoaxe5 hiding somewhere with DK64, Super smash bros, Conkers bad fur day and Diddy Kong Racing I think. Good additions this time tho, I’m not complaining, I would just like more frequent drops.
This needs to be on Switch. I hope it forces Nintendo to make a new Star Fox or at the very least a Star Fox all star’s collection of all the games resed up for Switch. One can only hope
Hyrule Warriors, now this and then Metroid Prime 4 and Marvel Cosmic Invasion next month. So much to play. Really glad this is reviewing well, I really enjoyed the test ride.
I’m awaiting the reviews with 6/7 out of 20s and I’ll probably get it. It’s a good game to play with my daughter too. She loves all the 90s game mascots lol
I really want this to do well, I’ve dabbled with sonic mainly in the 90s last one I really loved was adventure 2 (apart from mania). Never played any of the 3d ones after sonic heroes, I’m interested in this but have a feeling it’s going to be a mixed bag, if that’s the case I’ll still pick it up. But if it’s panned across the board I’ll sadly pass
Totally tubular story, awesome gameplay and gnarly multiplayer.
Now that we freaked the foots, mangled the mousers and totalled the technodrome with Turtle Power. What about Shreadder and Krang? Burned to toast? Vaporised to milkshake? Or escaped to dimension X?
Dudes and Dudettes at Dotemu - Please give us a sequel ASAP so we can find out
I can’t wait to play Bayonetta 3, it looks awesome. I’ve kinda tuned out of this all now, they may or may not have offered her a sum of money, she may or may not be lying. I can see the community interest draw but personally Ive lost interest
#sadbayonetta I don’t know what to think really, on one hand it does seem low to how much the franchise has made on the other id do it for $2000 lol. But in all seriousness it’s difficult to comment on unless you really know and understand the work in which a voiceover artist does and know the ins and outs of the situation 🫤
@Truegamer79 the shows actually really good, it’s like 12 seasons long now. Totally worth a watch got some real funny characters in it. Good voice actors too, Chris Pratt does Linda’s voice
I like it, it’s different and has its own style which is good. Can’t wait to see the movie trailer, genuinely excited for this. I remember seeing the original with Bob hoskins and my parents taking me when I was 10yr old lol, my cousin had the figures which had the jump boots on. Going to take my 9yr old daughter to see this one. Let’s be honest, like the original, even if it’s bad it will still be good lol
@BulkSlash Never got one last time but I’ve bought 2 as well for Goldeneye 007, and the other games. I was going to just buy one but thought 2 would be needed for that classic multiplayer action. Licence to kill, pistols only on Aztec.
Sadly at 40yrs old I’ll struggle to get 3 buddies round for an all night Goldeneye bender, but I’ll be able to get one over for an evening of sophisticated Goldeneye-ing, so 2s good lol
For me - If it wasn’t for Goldeneye 007, the other N64 games coming and Zelda dated then this would have been terrible, overall 5/10 and the N64 really elevated it!
That being said, Goldeneye OMG can’t wait, I’m going to have to get my pants pulled down now for one of those N64 switch controllers lol
@Lordplops me too, the visuals ain’t great but I can’t put it down, I’m really having a blast with it. Loving the deep mechanics, side missions and gyro aiming.
I like the look of this but the price puts me off quite a bit, I’ve just picked up God of war on PS4 for £12 brand new which is 2 years old this month. EA have majorly misjudged this one
This will be my first ever animal crossing game. As a long time gamer I’ve never really fancied them (or these type of games) before but something about this one has me interested and excited. Looking forward to it
Also how cool would it be if the command and conquer remake is announced? I was thinking it’s possible as blade runner is coming to switch and that’s Westwood too right? It’s not been announced for any of the console yet but was a big hit on consoles in the 90s 🤞🏻
@Heavyarms55 I have no doubt 3D world deluxe will come, strange it hasn’t already when it was the second best selling game on the system and there’s no requirement for the touch screen
I feel this port is getting short changed, it’s really really good. I picked up both this and The Witcher and I have to say this port in my opinion is much graphically clearer, cleaner and truer to the original. In my opinion the better of the 2 ports
I appreciate they are both different genres and The Witcher is open world, but overwatch seems to be getting put down and The Witcher over praised. I’m not knocking the Witcher port as it is great, it really is, just feel like it’s getting all the praise and overwatch getting none
Deserves much more appreciation than what it’s getting
I’ve ‘finished’ marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 in that I’ve finished the story a few times and unlocked all of the characters including the secret ones. I’ve got a handful of story levels to finish in Mario maker 2, I’ve went off crash tram racing as I’m a bit of a completionist. Considering buying fire emblem three houses but not sure
I think the score is a bit harsh for no multiplayer, it was a good game (not a masterpiece like goldeneye) but a solid 8 back in the day. I know it sounds like nit picking but this should have been a 7 at least
So difficult this one, as much as I like the Europe one it has to go to our good friends across the pond. Sorry but the Japanese one doesn’t even come close to either
Europe for pure nostalgia, also we had the massive box with the jumbo instruction Manuel for no apparent reason. Made the game feel massively epic to my child hands coming in such a big box lol
Really wanted this, so glad I didn’t buy it tho. If they patch it and it’s confirmed that it runs ok I’ll probably pick it up. Just a shame that it’s in such a poor state on release. The switch is an established legitimate successful console and there’s no way games should be rushed out the door in such an unfinished state.
This needs to set a precedent for developers in general, if anything it’s embarrassing especially as the system it sold best for is also the most unpolished.
They should have made the hard call, done the right thing and said it’ll be another x months but it’s going to have some exclusive Nintendo stuff to make up for it
Crash racing is awesome, not as good as Mario Kart 8 but a very close second. Especially as MK8 has been out a while now. To anyone who already has MK8 I would recommend picking this up too. The single player is so good with lots of content and the unlocks are do-able. To those without either get MK8 first and then this
£200 is too expensive, needs to be £180 or £160 to succeed as this will be the sweet spot price which makes people bite. Otherwise those that would consider this will just buy a switch and this system will be redundant
@Whalehome cuphead is such a good game, Nintendo first party quality, currently trying at A rank Dr kahls robot for the all A rank achievement then I’ll continue with the crushing yet addictive expert mode
I’ve just completed cup head and 100% Mario odyssey (the second time). Playing some MK11, want another game to play with it, thinking yoshi but might try and hold out to Mario maker 2 🤔
I really hope so, was planning on getting this to play with my 5yr old daughter who loves Mario. Planning on making courses for her to train her up to be a Mario legend like her dad lol 😄
I’m really on the fence about picking this up. I’ve just finished cuphead and want something new. I liked MK1 and 2 on the SNES but never really played it since. I like the idea of the story mode and that each character has their own arcade ending. That’s usually what I would play through anyway, I’m not one for online play nor cosmetic DLC. I’ve watched almost all the switch videos on YouTube and some make it look quite polished but others make it look blurry and washed out. Slightly confused re if you ‘need’ to be online to play the arcade (single player tower) or just to get the reward currency from it?
