The first 2 games were Steam users favourites.

But this 3rd entry is getting excellent critic reviews, the best of the series so far.

@BanjoPickles

And Batman: Return of the Joker

I keep googling from time to time in hopes of hearing that the game "plays great on Switch now!" But I think we can give up hope at this point.

• On Switch it plays at 30fps. Every other platform it plays at 60fps.
• I read that that it is an inconsistent 30fps, that there are drops etc.
• I read that there is input lag, that you can easily feel compared to the first game.
• I read that there are long load times on Switch which are made worse by all of the backtracking in the game.

Nintendo loses 15% to "6,607 JPY, a sharp drop from the 7,915"

Aaaand it's now back up almost 14% to 7,507...

It's got an "Overwhelmingly Positive" user rating on Steam, (the highest possible rating), with over 8,000 reviews.

And an "83" score on MetaCritic.

Satryn DX looks fun. I would be less interested if there were any way to actually buy Robotron instead.

Getting:
Arcade Archives VS. THE ADVENTURE OF VALKYRIE : The Legend of the Key of Time
I think this is the first time it's been released outside of Japan
JALECOlle Famicom Ver. Pinball Quest
The concept of a pinball RPG game is too weird not to want to check out.
Thank Goodness You're Here!
Good reviews, though its extreme Britishness concerns me!
Tomba! Special Edition
GameFaqs users ranked this the #37 best PS1 game.

Interested, but waiting for reviews:
World of Goo 2
Volgarr the Viking II

So many reviews said the game is great, but the multiplayer was lacking.

So I did not purchase.

Now finding out that more multiplayer stages and multiplayer modes will be added dripfeed style?

I might end up picking this up eventually then...

I love Monty Python, Q.I. The Graham Norton Show, and watch a lot of Premier League football.

But I'm still worried that's not British enough?

Arcade Archives FOOTBALL CHAMP
I've read this series rivals Super Sidekicks (which have all been delisted sadly), as the premier arcade soccer games.
Cosmic Fantasy Collection
Most of this series has not until very recently been released outside of Japan
Epyx Rogue
You've heard of "roguelikes" and "roguelites"? It's because of this game!
SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos
One of the best (but not VERY best) Neo Geo games. The main complaints against it is that it is not as good as the Capcom vs SNK games, and that it is very, wildly imbalanced. But if you're not too interested in playing it "seriously", on a tournament-type of level, then it's loads of fun with friends, with gorgeous pixel art.

A while ago I googled for lists of the best Neo Geo games. I looked for ranked lists at least 25 games long. I ended up finding 7 qualifying lists with 132 unique games and a total of 4102 separate entries.

SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos ended up the #30 best Neo Geo game, tied for #10 best fighter on the system.

I was scared off of the first game by the below average reviews.
Its user rating on Steam is below average as well.

I'll stick with the old NES Kunio stuff for now, and the first River City Girls and Zero.

Getting:
Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition
though I was hoping for better reviews after the hands-on previews seemed like gushing praise...
Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown Deluxe Edition
Arcade Archives TINKLE PIT
A Japanese exclusive, I'm pretty sure this its debut in the West.

It looks like no physical edition for North America.
I see physical for sale from Europe, but am worried North America eShop DLC wouldn't work with it.

So I'll probably end up getting it digital to be on the safe side.

There was a launch sale, but it ended before reviews came out.
Always be on the safe side when it comes to Switch ports...

Hooray for Japanese curios!

Yeah they were delisted because China pressured them for having a "Taiwan" team (I suppose I should put "allegedly" in there...but it's pretty obvious).

Definitely:
Parasol Stars: The Story of Bubble Bobble III

Maybe:
Muv-Luv Alternative Remastered
(solid MetaCritic score on original release and Steam users love it)

Waiting to make sure the Switch port is good:
Darkest Dungeon II

Kids love fart noise apps.

Pokemon: Fart

Unique fart noises for over 1,000 Pokemon.
It would make a billion dollars in a week.

@NintendoWife

I've heard some people say that in "The Pit of 100 Trials", you can make the difficulty closer to the original game, if you lose a battle, exit the Pit instead of simply retrying.

That should get you some of the frustration you're longing for!

From what I understand, any game you choose to start with will spoil something from prior games. So it's best to go as far back as you can to get the most out of the series.

It's kind of like saying: "So you want to get into the MCU? It's totally okay to just watch the 'Avengers' movies and skip everything else."

Most MCU fans would say: "...no. Do not do that! You're missing so much if you do that!"

The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak is the star this week, part of the looong Trails series, itself part of the even longer The Legend of Heroes series...

Cyber Citizen Shockman Zero was not only a Super Famicom Japan-exclusive, it was a Satellaview release not available physically at the time. Satellaview was a magical device where you could download games through satellite broadcasts.

The other 3 Cyber Citizen Shockman games are on Switch. Some of them were also Japan-exclusives at the time.

IGN had it #13 on their Top 100 NES Games list.

You are the outlier! (insert smiley face here)

2 quality Rare games (Cobra Triangle and Solar Jetman) and that Mystery of Atlantis Japan-exclusive curio.

A good day!

@Vyacheslav333

Thank you for the heads-up about the file size. I'll definitely go physical.

Commenters were so blind with rage that someone would give a low score to any Puyo Puyo game, that they missed the Chemical Brothers reference!

Europe emphasized the swinging, so I went with that.

It seems to me that Nintendo is suspiciously avoiding putting GameCube games on the Switch.

My prediction, is that when they announce the "Switch 2", they will announce they are adding GameCube games to the NSO, but only available on the new console, to drive sales of the new box.

These games are hilarious. Easy sell for me.

@Lizuka

Have you read the hands-on previews?

A lot of people are speculating that if this sells well, that it could be followed up with an SNES Edition, N64 Edition, GameCube edition.

But I haven't heard anyone speculate, what I hope, that it's possible they could in future expand the NES Edition to have even more games in addition to the existing 13 games. Maybe Punch-Out!!, Tetris, Dr. Mario, Mario Bros., Ice Hockey.

Or what if it expanded to 3rd party stuff?
How about a Capcom pack: Mega Man 1-6, Gargoyle's Quest II, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, DuckTales, Bionic Commando, Ghosts 'n Goblins, 1943: The Battle of Midway.
How about a Konami pack: Contra & Super C, Castlevania I-III, Jackal, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I-III, Bucky O'Hare, Blades of Steel, Gradius.

I could definitely see them adding a game or 2 every month to keep people playing. That's the Nintendo way.

These 2 classics:

• Luigi's Mansion 2 HD
• Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition

And

• Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon-
  is a remake of a 24 year-old Japan-exclusive visual novel. It is very well regarded.
• Witch on the Holy Night
  is another visual novel already on Switch which is a prequel to Tsukihime, and recommended to play first, to get acquainted with its world.
• Melty Blood: TYPE LUMINA
  is a fighting game already on Switch that is also in the same universe as the above 2 games.

And down the rabbit hole we go....

I let them know that I love having so many classic games, that I look forward to seeing it crossover to the "Switch 2", and look forward to other consoles like "GameCube" being added in future.

I would click on: "It should cost less...but it's fine."

I would also click on: "What are we going to do?...not buy it?"

Over the past week, a DC comics cover artist was just caught and exposed by another industry artist.

What gave it away was the bottom of the "S" on Superman's chest was duplicated, like 2 endloops. Kind of like how A.I. art often gives people 3 arms, etc.

I was mostly interested in this for the multiplayer.
So I'm thinking I'll skip this...

These lists are created from NL user ratings. You can rate any N64 game by clicking "Games" at the top of the page, filter by N64, or search for any game. If any game has a high enough average user score and enough user ratings, it will appear on the Top 50 list.

This is my biggest re-release let-down since GTA Trilogy.

The consensus on that one is that it will NEVER be worth buying, and I imagine it is the same for this Battlefront.

The interest in both is through the roof. That both managed to be bungled so spectacularly, is actually impressive.

Just give me that sweet, sweet Conker!

A rushed Silksong is bad forever.
A delayed Silksong will never come out at all.

The thought never crossed my mind that a Gimmick! sequel could even be a possibility!

Yeah, all the horror stories have scared me off of even contemplating getting an LRG release physical. But I'll gladly scoop up their digital offerings.

Star Luster is a Famicom game released exclusively in Japan. So I was already interested, the fact that it is well-regarded is a no-brainer for me.

The top 3 featured games are all on my radar, but I'm waiting for reviews.

The Scouring of the Shire DLC expansion looks promising.

(that's a joke for LOTR readers)

Currently Turok: Dinosaur Hunter would be ranked #56
Now that it's on NSO, maybe it could sneak on there someday.

Since your comment, Turok 2: Seeds of Evil is now #37.

#7 Perfect Dark is also now on NSO!

#1 & #4 best GBA games added to the NSO on the same day!

What a time to be alive!

Conker's Bad Fur Day CONFIRMED!!!

They said it couldn't be done!
They said the NSO is for all ages!
It was impossible!
This is one giant leap for mankind!

Zelda's Awakening

I think it's really cool that some of the challenges (legend challenges?) are like "beat Super Mario Bros." and "beat Super Mario Bros. without warping".

I thought they were only going to be little bite-sized ones. These long ones are essentially the trophies/achievements I've been clamouring for, for the NSO!

I picked:

• Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics because MvC 2 and The Punisher are fighter and beat 'em up classics (respectively).
• Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition because, I am old, and I didn't realize that some challenges are like: "beat Super Mario Bros.", and "beat Super Mario Bros. without warping". That's incredible! It's basically trophies/achievements that I've been clamouring for! Up until now I thought they were all tiny bite-sized challenges, but this is very, very cool!
• The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom (Switch), which I will call Zelda's Awakening, and no one can stop me!

Everyone last year: "I wonder if someone will make a 2D game like TOTK?"

Nintendo (secretly): "...........hehe..."

On Ranker.com, nearly 10,000 people have voted on a list of
"The Greatest Fighting Games Ever Made".

Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes is #2
(behind only Street Fighter III: Third Strike)

A while ago I googled around for lists of the best beat 'em up games. I looked for lists at least 25 games long. I found 5 qualifying lists. I ended up with 58 unique games.

The Punisher ended up tied for the #10 best beat 'em up.
At the time it was said to be "the goriest arcade game since Mortal Kombat".
