Well I'm glad. It was far better than it had any right to be. Hopefully, its good too.

I have a brand spanking new Series X coming in tomorrow because of the backwards compatibility, also digital purchases work across all Xbox consoles. I'd say Spencer is doing what he can within the law.

I stopped playing pokemon because it is virtually the same exact story and progression every single game. You are a trainer, work your through the gyms, stop an evil plot, become champion. zzz.... Do something new please!

I put 40 minutes into it. It's good. Action sequences haven't changed all that much, but then, they didn't need to. The town portions have been significantly beefed up, including tower defense sections and little mini action levels.

As soon as this was announced, I was pressing F on NIntendo.com waiting for it be released. I don't care if the graphics aren't that great(neither were the original's TBH) as long as the game is fun to play(which it was). Also I got a code for wallpaper and BGM. RAD!

I'm playing right now. It's great and well worth the money if you like games like Stardew Valley. Keep in mind this game was developed by one man.

But is it any good?

@Toshiro_Baloney I noticed you didn't say what they were...

@HollowSpectre But Uwe Boll has never made a genuinely good movie like Event Horizon, which still holds up to this day.

People are forgetting the reason the reason MP4 was revealed in 2017 was because the game was in development at Bandai Namco(I think it was). Then Nintendo looked at what it was and realized it was garbage, and gamers deserved better. So they restarted from scratch. I don't think anythings was kept. So by the metric, the game essentially started development last year and not whenever the last version was.

I wonder if Doug Bowser even knows Eternal Darkness even exists....

I have not bought TOK, I probably will not buy TOK, at least for awhile. But you know what? Its great that it sold so well. Congratulations, Nintendo.
As for the argument there is nothing to play, there is plenty to play. Maybe there aren't a lot of AAAs right now, but there is plenty out there.

I remember a PC hentai game with this exactly premise years and years ago, and you got to see EVERYTHING. Lame.

I have it, it's awesome! Though I am confused as to why the American version is more expensive than the EU version.

I downloaded it and played it for a bit. As a teenager, I wasn't particularly impressed with it. As an adult, I can really appreciate how good it really was.
This is definitely worth a purchase, and has more bells and whistles than the N64 version did.

I hate mobile games because 99% of them aren't really games, there is very little actual game play in them, its all about spending that cash. Nintendo is in the business of making games, not slot machines, and they didn't want to tarnish their reputation making slot machines, so they left the mobile market. Good for them.

@DK-Fan It is not a question of taste. Most mobile games aren't games, they're predatory gambling programs that exist to bilk players of nearly unlimited amounts of cash for almost nothing in return. A least a real slot machine has a chance of giving you real money in return. Loot boxes give you nothing tangible in return.

Pre-purchased it last Monday! Makes a great time waster at work or something to play while watching something at home. It also doesn't hurt that I loved Clubhouse games for the DS too.

I'll leave my 2cents: Nintendo doesn't really innovate with their core franchises as much as some people want to admit. Animal Crossing is fundamentally the same game it always has been. Smash is too. So is Pokemon(i've stopped playing mainline because its the same game with the same formulaic story since 1998). Zelda was stuck in the same old formula until BOTW.
Meanwhile, Capcom sticks with what works, but also innovates. The first Resident Evil is dinosaur compared to modern iterations. Even Street Fighter 2 is when compared with Street fighter 5.

If they bring any of these series back, they really can't be less than stellar games. Let's take Streets of Rage 4, for example. They dug up a franchise that had been dead for 26 years, and made an awesome game that meets or exceeds the 3 other entries. But image if SOR4 had stunk, what a bummer that'd be. IF Nintendo brings any of them back, they better be awesome, or why resurrect them at all?

I really hope the return to form for Paper Mario is true. TTYD is one of my most beloved games of all time! I could take or leave the 3d remasters.

Cherrio Ol' Chap!

@CupidStunt Correct. Its insanely hard with a terrible checkpoint system(you restart the level every time you die). Hopefully they fix this for the re-master.

I played More Friends of Mineral Town(the girl version) because that's what I had. I'll never forget chopping wood while pregnant while my husband stood around and did nothing! Good times.
Maybe I'll pick this up.

I literally fell asleep reading Blood of Elves, so excuse me if I imbibe his universe through video games and a TV show.

The actual worst game of 2019 on Switch is probably some $2.99 shovelware game that Nintendolife didn't bother to review. If Nintendolife chooses to review a game, it probably has SOME merit.

First game: Puyo-Puyo Tetris
Total hours: 295
Total games: 43
Top 5:
Civilization 6
Stardew Valley
Mario Maker 2
My Time at Portia
Fire Emblem Three Houses

If it was a replacement for memory cards where you store your saved games on a hard drive, I'd be there day one. But its just a storage box for less than 10 games. I have 130+ N64 games, which means I'd have to stack at least 13 of these to store all my games.
No thanks.

Where are the naysayers now? Where are they? They're all gone because fact: The Switch prints money for Nintendo. It is a bonafide success.

I always see the Switch as the Indie Machine, where you play mostly indie titles, and first party Nintendo games. Third party AAAs, while nice, are never really in the switch e-shop best sellers list consistently.
Therefore, I can see the Switch surviving for a long time simply being the indie machine and not relying on AAAs outside of Nintendo.

I got hit with this, even submitted a support ticket(didn't help me). I'll not play until it gets fixed.

Bought Grip, cause I'm a sucker for futuristic racing games. Not really interested in much else because I would've bought it if I wanted it already. :/

I find it interesting that companies think if its for little kids, they can shovel poorly made garbage at kids and they won't know any better. This is a case in point. They deserve better than this!

I have never played a battlefield or CoD game, ever in my life.

If you didn't have to restart the entire damn level when you died, Shadowman would've been a total immortal classic. Instead you started the level again when you died, which got annoying after awhile.

Princess Maker without the extremely creepy and perverted undertones that series is known for. Still pass.

The game may truer to the original IP, but people don't know the comics as much as they know the gritty FPS games, and that's what people want. Honestly this seems like a generic indie game with Turok slapped on to sell more copies.

I loved the OOT soundtrack, my favorite track is the Spirit Temple track, with the ORIGINAL Fire Temple theme as a close second as the Adhan was perfectly used in it(though I understand why they had to take it out).

Actraiser is a classic. Glad someone is bringing it back in some form, even in the form of a shameless copy. I'll wait for a review though.

A mix between The Thing and Eternal Darkness(sanity effects). This looks promising but will wait for a review.

@gimmi_c Given what we know about Google Stadia and its pricing and bandwidth requirements, its not going to do very well. They don't need to team up. Google will take down itself.

As for what this could be, I'd bet its Xbox services on Switch.

You know what's 16 years-old at this point? F-Zero GX. If there's anything that needs a new title, its F-Zero. Will we get it? No, but one can always dream.

MegaRace on Switch, do it.... whoever owns the rights...

@SBandy Aki is now Syn Sophia and makes the Style Savvy games for girls.

@ReaderRagfish I know right, its almost as if about 2 years ago, a new Nintendo handheld came out and changed everything...

I actually sat through the whole game and much of the DLC campaign. The missions are kinda bland, along with the story, the fun of blowing stuff up never got old to me. Some the explosion challenges were interesting and actually challenging.

@iRiS Oh it did, never mind. Then yeah, I am super confused too as to why we can't play it yet. Let's check tomorrow.

i think we can't play it yet because it actually releases tomorrow the 19th, and not today the 18th, I think there was a screw up at Nintendo over this. I remember the original release trailer saying it releases the 19th.

I'm going to be terrible at this game, but i will still buy and enjoy it anyway!

I love Event Horizon the movie. It's easily in my top 5 favorite movies. "Where we're going, we don't need eyes to see!" I always cheer at that line ^-^
This game... uhhh... no. I'll pass.

This may be happening, this may not be happening. If its going to happen, we'll hear about it at E3. Otherwise, I'm ignoring this for now.
