The Steam Deck is not what expected. I have heard it can play games with powers up to WiiU/PS3/XBox360. That is similar to the Switch. If it played modern PC games as the same power then that would be something to look at. As of now, no.
The Switch OLED is not hot either. I feel the Switch 2 is being developed and is way more powerful. I would hold on. The great thing about the OLED model is that it won't have exclusives like the New 3DS did. That was annoying.
@Personausermike Agreed. The costumes look great by the way and it shows representation. Also, people need to smile. When in the world would you see Kazuya fighting Snake and then having Sephiroth face him?
The sequel looks great. I am glad there is a sequel to continue the universe. The last one just kind of ended and I was not sure if they merger was permanent or not.
@Tourtus I am not sure if I can call this all pixels. To me the new TMNT game is all pixels or Street Fighter II or Metal Slug. This looks like pixels but not as crisp.
@EVIL-C This man (or gal) right here. Voice of reason.
I would still be upset about the TMNT Arcade but we are getting a new one so I don't care now (a compilation would be nice). Also, when are we getting a Marvel Vs Cacom game for the Switch?
I like the use of Tails. Hopefully Sonic can be designed in future games to use his speed to get him out of certain dangers. For instance, throwing sand to make a 1-second bridge that he can use to save himself from pits. Stuff like that to show the power of speedsters.
I am not saying I want "more game" for every pre-order. I am talking about anniversaries and compilations. Since this is an anniversary, I always relate it to "give me past games to help celebrate the legacy of the franchise" and not just stuff.
If Sonic Colors Ultimate was a brand new game then I would say all the stuff they are giving away is great. But if you are releasing an older game on an anniversary then the best gift would be a compilation.
@Strictlystyles Those coins or badges that some stores offered for the Mario 3D collection just made me think, "Why not skip that and just add Galaxy 2?"
@dimi Or, it might be playable on the new upgraded Switch. Which does not make sense because you know a Switch 2 will be out soon after the upgraded Switch. That business model always upsets me.
@Slowdive No, no, no, no. What don't developers understand. I don't want a coin. Give me a complete collection of the old 2D games or the old 3D games (the good ones at least). I don't want a coin or a booklet. I want a comprehensive of the good games.
I need a more practical example of how NFTs work in order to understand the value of the system. So far I have just seen memes and JPEGs going for sale.
Some games are still worth it. Super Mario World, Sonic 3 and Knuckles, Turtles in Time, Super Metroid, Link between Worlds, Wild Guns, Metal Gear Solid 3, Arkham City, .... all of those games are amazing and hold the test of time.
There are even games based of licenses that are still worth it: Tiny Toons Buster Busts Loose, The Adventures of Batman and Robin, Animaniacs, Power Rangers, ....
@Axelay71 Talk to me about reproduction carts. I missed out on Pokemon Emerald and I see it cheap as a reproduction cart. Is it really as bad as people say it is? (I am talking about the game not saving your files which is a big thing for games like Pokemon).
@Alienfreaks04 If you have a Wii U then you can still download it from there. I have downloaded a couple of games recently since I am not sure how long the Wii U Eshop is going to stay on.
@nessisonett Emulation is something I appreciate it but don't people get in trouble for downloading emulated games. A better question is...are there actual reports of people getting in trouble for emulated games?
I think classic Nintendo games will always be re-released since fans will always appreciate them when we get older. The thing is, Nintendo needs to do a better job of putting a complete package. The 25th anniversary Mario should have included World and Yoshi's island. The 3D Mario All Stars should have included Mario Galaxy 2. I am sure this is not the last of these games we will see in the future, but the compilations need to be better. Also, I wish I can buy games from Nintendo online instead of just renting them for a year.
@TheFullAndy Ryu Hyubasha: "Indeed," the Ninja breathes as he unsheaths his sword upon a traveler wearing white clothes with a red bandanna around his head.
@Realness Same here. I just think of Iphone games when i see that. Try Battle Princess Madelyne Royal Edition if you are looking for more of a sprite look.
@1ofUs He is probably the last DLC. Ryu needs to be in here because I feel he is the last NES 3rd party legacy character along with Simon and Mega Man.
I can see him bringing Double Dragon and Contra as Mii fighter outfits.
@Trajan I think it is more fun to play against people that aren't masters on every particular movement. However, to me, it is a wonderful museum years of games put together. It is a highlight in gaming history!

Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting A Switch OLED Or Valve Steam Deck?
@Mgene15 Might as well wait for a Switch 2. If Nintendo puts out another Switch upgrade then that would seem ridiculous at this point.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting A Switch OLED Or Valve Steam Deck?
@B_Lindz Of course Ratchet and Clank is great. It is the only Run and Gun game of its kind. It feels good without being mindless.

@BakaKnight How is the show? I am interested but I am afraid it might become cliche. Is it any good?
Re: Dante, Shantae And More Join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate As Mii Fighter Costumes
@eltomo Goku, Trunks, Vegeta, and Gohan are already in. They are disguised as Dragon Quest characters.
I think Sora has a chance but so do: Ryu Hyabusha, Crash, Rayman, Doom Slayer, Master Chief, and Eggman.
Re: Dante, Shantae And More Join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate As Mii Fighter Costumes
@Personausermike Agreed. The costumes look great by the way and it shows representation. Also, people need to smile. When in the world would you see Kazuya fighting Snake and then having Sephiroth face him?
Re: What Did You Think Of The Mario + Rabbids Sequel Reveal? Creative Director Davide Soliani Wants To Know
The sequel looks great. I am glad there is a sequel to continue the universe. The last one just kind of ended and I was not sure if they merger was permanent or not.
Re: Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope Officially Unveiled With 'Reveal' Trailer
Was hoping that the last one was an announcement for Rayman to be in Smash.
Re: Rumour: Major Ubisoft Switch Exclusive Could Make An E3 Appearance
If true then I can see Rayman being put in for SMASH, even though rumors of DOOM guy are spreading around.
Re: Rumour: Major Ubisoft Switch Exclusive Could Make An E3 Appearance
@roboshort I was thinking about that series. It is good to see that some remember it. The second one was fantastic.

@BulbasaurusRex Yeah. I want to see it is more Shinobi dressed in Castlevania clothing.

@Strictlystyles I see your point.

Re: Switch Logo In Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot DLC Trailer Was A Mistake, According To Bandai Namco
This seems like a nice game, but having more DLC for Fighterz would be the way to go for me.
Re: The Guys Behind Streets Of Rage 4 And Scott Pilgrim Are Making A Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Game
@BulbasaurusRex It seems to be inspired by the first arcade where Mikey had one nunchuck. In the sequel he had two.
In some parts of the cartoon he alternates between one and two.
Re: The Guys Behind Streets Of Rage 4 And Scott Pilgrim Are Making A Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Game
Game of the Year. Why? Because I have been waiting for a nice 2D TMNT fighting game for so long.
Re: Sakurai Explains Why Xenoblade's Rex Isn't A Smash Ultimate DLC Fighter
@nessisonett Nessionett used criticism. Rex is now poisoned. Super effective.
Re: Atlus Wants To Know What Games You Want Ported To Switch
@nessisonett Not as "hysterical" as Breath of the Wild 2 being only playable on the possible Switch Pro. Let's hope that is not the case.
Re: Video: Check Out This Side-By-Side Comparison Of Pokémon Diamond And Pearl On Switch And DS
Was hoping there wouldn't be random encounters. On the other hand, the game would be much shorter if that was removed.
Re: Gallery: Sakurai Shares Some New Screenshots Of The Next Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC Fighters
@ObeseChihuahua2 I don't know. Sephiroth taking out the boss that everyone was having trouble with seemed to top all the Smash intros.

I see someone likes their Stephen King.
Re: Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection Slices Up The Nintendo Switch This June
@1ofUs He is probably the last DLC. Ryu needs to be in here because I feel he is the last NES 3rd party legacy character along with Simon and Mega Man.
I can see him bringing Double Dragon and Contra as Mii fighter outfits.
