I need a couple questions answered for me to be there at day-one for the Switch successor. Backwards compatibility for Switch physical games? Performance enhancement for those b/c games? Confirmation from Nintendo themselves, not supposition from fellow forum members.

I often jump at Pix'N Love's limited editions when they're in the fighting game genre. But as someone who used to own an AES copy of SVC Chaos, it is a borderline "kusoge". A janky, unbalanced mess with a great roster.

Will be the focal piece of my next import order. Kind of unfortunate the ESRB release was cancelled.

@Fake-news Like how SuperDeluxeGames is the Japanese branch of LRG? Hmm, could be.

@Kimyonaakuma It was originally a 4Chan leak, so probably not real.

Still waiting on that SMT IV & Apocalypse Final double pack that leaked last year. https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/nintendo-switch/shin_megami_tensei_iv_apocalypse_hd_remaster

@RupeeClock Not sure. However, I would like to believe so.

GameMill Entertainment? Yikes. Hard pass. No thanks, bro.

There's a business collaboration between Clear River Games and Limited Run. They distribute each others games often.

Filters targeting discount ranges would be nice. Oftentimes the $3 mobile trash is marked down 33% so that it sits right on the top of the $1.99 floor cap of the North America eShop pricing. Targeting a higher discount point (50% or higher) would help separate the wheat from the chaff.

A bit "nothing" this week. Muv Luv is a pretty funny visual novel though.

I expect the legacy to carry on without missing a step. It'll be a port-machine haven; a secondary device all core gamers wouldn't mind owning. Plenty of games that skipped Switch because it was underpowered will most likely now be opted for the Switch successor.

Just got my order of the LE for the Daybreak 1 today. Too many games, not enough time to play them.

Since the Fighting Collection games are a series now, what's next? Power Stone collection? Capcom vs. SNK collection? Street Fighter EX collection?

Coming off of Witch on the Holy Night, this was a top-five anticipated release of 2024 for me. Just waiting for my order of a physical copy to arrive.

Since Capcom have labelled "Fighting Collection" as a series I wonder what'll be next? A Power Stone duology or a Capcom vs. SNK duology?

The return of a series of games that had been delisted and were not available for purchase for about a decade. Yes, this one minute of the recent Direct was a 10/10 moment for fighting game fans.

How do hobbit holes stay so clear while nobody has footwear?!

Betting the farm on themselves huh? Geez, now I feel guilted into buying a copy on general principal.

I'm alright with this.

Sakaguchi, feels like he's coming home, sort of.

It's a nice blend of Zelda and Pokemon Snap. Good game. BG&E 2 has been in development for what now....15 years? Probably just vaporware now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nh6qcfSEg4

@Vyacheslav333 Engine Sotfware's port quality is hit and miss. Yx IX is perhaps their worst Switch port and the No More Heroes games their best.

@Vyacheslav333 True. Well...at least we're getting that Shadows of the Damned Remaster soonish. Mildly worried it's Engine Software doing the port work though.

A Killer7 Switch 2 port would be nice.

Makes me wonder if this will be patched up a bit before the physical release ships? It's a LRG numbered release, so I was in for a copy on general principle.

The current-gen port for FO3 and Oblivion leaked late last year.

Still waiting on the Switch release for Turbo Overkill.

Love me my boomer shooters.

I skipped the 08' reboot, kind of wish I hadn't

More backtracking than your typical Metroidvania, but I enjoy this game.

Ze battle with ze backlog is never-ending.

Nothing digitally. However, physical copies for Grounded, Rose & Camellia, and Slave Zero X are on order.

PowerWash Simulator is the most recent zen-like experience.

Aw yeah, make it squeaky clean, yo.

I still need to play through 1, and 4...and 5...and 6.

Too many games, not enough time.

Would've preferred Nick Newhard's Blood, but I'll take PO'ed as a backup.

Just ranking those I've played from start to finish.

IV > VI > XIII > XII > VII >>> Tactics > I > Crisis Core > Mystic Quest

Since Hideki Kamiya isn't working either, I wonder if he'll reconnect with Mikami? Come together like Voltron and whatnot. Clover Studio "The Sequel".

The Hong Kong Massacre and/or Ape Out need some love too.

I'll probably just stick with Mad Rat Dead.

Peace Walker alone would make Vol. 2 worth owning.

Fantasy Life i is tops, Unicorn Overlord was second, and Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes as my third most anticipated game of 2024. What a year for rpg lovers.

Every time I see Embracer in the news I think of that scene from Trading Places. "You idiot. Get back in there at once and sell...SELL!"

Call of Honor - Duty of Warfare

Must be the finest of asset flips?

At last. It's...been...years.

GameMill? Bad news. Cradle Games? Not-so-great news. Raw Thrills? Cruis'n Blast is great, so I hope they're the lead developer here.

Money makes people do strange things.

I'm in for Unicorn Overload, Fantasy Life i, and Contra. Probably will double-dip on SMT V: V as well.

The last game from Acquire before being reassigned and lost in support work for Square-Enix. RIP Octopath Traveler.

Phantom Dust, if you would please, MS.

I've been waiting for SteamWorld Build's physical release, since I have most of their other games physically.
