The series is pretty much dead in the water. Microsoft doesn't want to use it, Sakurai was the only one in recent years to ask to use it for Smash Bros. Ultimate.
@Zach777 It's integrated in the game itself, so yes, they will be there. You will have to deal with Hell itself to unlock them, tho.
@obijuankanoobie Actually, it was related to a Japan-only contest. The gold custom parts still got localized, but only unlockable with Action Replay. Nintendo could just unlock them by default, but it's seemingly too much for them. Checks out, as they didn't give us the e-reader tracks for GP Legend unless you play the Japanese version on NSO.
I call bullcrap. They will give us WW GC and that's it. Same for TP. Why doubling the work when you could just dump the existing game with your official emulator. Less work, more money for them.
And it's missing QUITE a bunch of games from it. Generations reference them but the Storybook games are not canon?? Same for Triple Trouble, that's Fang's first appearance and yet it's ignored, just like that.
Seems like a middle finger to anyone who bought them earlier, and that new thing is on the same console, no less. And it seems, like that other Inti trilogy, those enhancements won't ever be added to what we got.
An actual remaster would have DRM on PC, it's maybe better that the fans did it instead.
@Mando44646 Many games went by that phase. Even on Nintendo's side, that happens. @X68000 The Werehog levels are fine, their real issues that they're in the same game as the day levels and StW is kinda slow when you start the game, which is a problem. @Scottdevine53 Roger wouldn't be as good as Jason was during Unleashed. I love Roger, but this is clearly a different beast. @EarthboundBenjy Both versions are too different to be just jumbled like that, even in a bundle. SEGA did ignore DS Colors when they re-released (badly) Colors. They would ignore the Wii/PS2 version too.

Nintendo won't do jack squat. Stick drift will happen, and as much as it happened on Switch, to boot.

No. This is a middle finger to preservation.

Seems you can't obtain the gold custom parts in the NSO version of GX.
Wow. So much for preservation. They couldn't have just added them to the shop?
Re: Donkey Kong's New Design Added As Icon In Latest Switch Firmware Update
I hate how they want to retcon the Rare design away and even take it away if you use the default one as your pfp.

Re: Video: Nintendo Today Gives Us Another Look At F-Zero GX For Switch Online
So it doesn't include the golden custom parts?
Thanks, Nintendo. Then again, you didn't offer us the e-reader tracks for GP Legend, so I shouldn't be surprised.

Re: Nintendo: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment Is A "Canonical Tale"
I bet they'll find a way to change things. I don't trust them, they said the same thing for Age of Calamity.

Re: Random: This Unofficial Sonic Unleashed PC Port Has Us Dreaming Of A Switch 2 Remaster
@EarthboundBenjy The canon lore is the XBox 360/PS3 version, going by the Encyclo-speedia.
The Wii/PS2 version had to do this due to well, not being as strong as those two consoles.
