@Drago201 That's because Nintendo has taken care of its IPs like Disney properties. They keep giving them new life in some form or another. Sony and Microsoft kind of forget their IPs that show potential (I.E. Jak and Daxter, Sly, and Ratchet). With Halo going multiplatform it is only a matter of time until Master Chief gets the letter (SSB letter!).
@Zufolobelisk on the contrary. I love how it keeps coming back as a die hard. Similar to Teen Titans Go. I feel he is the Skrull of the videogame universe and will embed himself in other franchises. Just puuurfect.
I feel the selling point for this is the art. Gameplay.....not so much. YuGiOh games got better as they went along when the rules got incorporated.
We should have a YuGioH RPG where you summon monsters. Just make it look cool and summon a few monsters with playable characters from the original show. That would be awesome.
@Greatluigi Yes. I am hoping they making a Pokemon Early collection like they are doing with YuGioh. I can't imagine putting money on a game to build a team up and then having my subscription go out.
@mlt They both have something that makes them different, and I like that. I think Streets of Rage 4 is a better experience than what Double Dragon has been giving out lately.
@Sonicka I am hoping for a collection like the MegaMan Battle Network where you can trade Pokemon within games. Also, some QOL features would be nice (i.e. speed up).
@shonenjump86 Sonic Heroes was a continuation of the Adventure series. It is one of my favorite Sonic games. However, due to the rushed development time and small team, it definitely has some funky glitches. Hopefully they polish it up to what it truly should play like. As for the Adventure series, I am hoping of a remake that also fixes issues. All three are wonderful Sonic games with potential.
@axelhander This is what I like about frontiers. It made bosses be beat with more than just 3 hits in the head. We need more beatem up elements in platformers. I think Kirby does it well enough.
@Crono1973 Yes, being able to resell it is always cool. But when the servers for updating the game shuts down, you won't have a complete game (i.e. Smash Bros. for the Wii U). I can resell the game but for anyone new that wants that version will never get all the DLC. Or what about bug glitches like the Wii version of Skyword Sword? I feel us physical buyers are getting a bit of the short stick with the digital age.
@XCWarrior I love getting physical if possible, but I have been finding the sales for digital can be pretty good. I would like to experience the game without it having it to be high in price (i.e. any old Pokemon game). However, does physical mean anything anymore when updates, patches, and DLC are a thing?
Hopefully they make this shine so that they can try again at a Kart Racer. The third one had potential, but what is the use if a lot of your content is locked behind online play when online is pretty much dead.
We know there is a second system since it was reported Ubisoft was asked (by Nintendo) to hold off on Sparks of Hope until the newer system comes in. If Nintendo is telling a developer to hold off then an announcement of a new system should be soon. Holiday of 2024 sounds about right.
Please make it backward compatiable. It would be nice to reuse those remotes as well.
I am disappointed that this article did not start off with, "Good news everyone." I am so disappointed that I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
@ComfyAko Yeah. They did mention that 3D would be hard for them. For Scarlet and Violet, I wanted the land to glitch out at times to show a glimpse of the past or future to stay in tune with the theme. That would have been awesome and would have alluded to the professors more as you reached them at the end.
@Dr_Lugae You are right. I think people are just overwhelmed by the rate of games and how the progression of Arceus to Scarlet/Violet was a one step forward two steps back kind of thing.
@ComfyAko Yup. Pokemon is like Sonic. Anyone can make a fast moving animal as a game mascot. But they will never be Sonic. Pokemon is just like that now. Unfortunately, the rate of games coming out and quality is going in the direction of Sonic. Nintendo needs to take their time.
I hate the fact that Shang Tsung is a "bonus fighter" when he is integral to the story. Similar to Shao Khan being "bonus" when he played a role in Mortal Kombat 11. This practice needs to be removed.
Also, Green Ranger Shredder and He-Man/Skeletor DLC please.

That Platinum lore is coming back.

Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Celebrating 5th Anniversary With New Spirits
@HammerGalladeBro I still want a remake of the KH games on Switch not using the cloud. (They can leave 3 out of it though).
Re: Best Mario RPGs Of All Time
@Cia Yes. TTYD has too much backtracking and the partners are not all great.
Re: Best Mario RPGs Of All Time
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga games are the best RPG mechanics hands down. You are active even during the boss's turn
Re: Soapbox: 20 Years On, It's About Time These Pokémon Games Got Switch Remasters
More games like Legends but tweak the gameplay.
Re: New Details Emerge On Satoru Iwata's Work On Pokémon Gold And Silver
@Bl4ckb100d He had a gamer's heart even though he was running a billion dollar company. I feel Sakurai is the same way.

Dashie. It has to be Dashie!

@HammerGalladeBro This is THE licensed game for DB. It feels like you are playing an anime.
Re: Nintendo's Next Switch Game Trial Has Been Announced For Online Subscribers
With the amount of characters in each, Naruto or One Piece would be great.

Re: Rumour: Metal Gear Solid 4, 5, and Peace Walker May Be Included In Vol. 2 Collection
@GeneJacket A shame. I wonder if Konami will try to continue the Metal Gear legacy properly other than just remakes?
Here is my dream game though: Metal Gear x Arkham Series
Re: Rumour: Metal Gear Solid 4, 5, and Peace Walker May Be Included In Vol. 2 Collection
@StarPoint The real question is, would they complete MGS V with the content they were never able to put in?

Re: Soapbox: Pokémon Desperately Needs A Rival, But Who's Big Enough To Take It On?
@BodkinDQ I think Arceus and Scarlet/Violet were made back to back. There was not time to assess what worked and what did not.
