I am completely with you on this one. I, for one reason or another, bought every Smash game that has been released. I played them all for about a week and never touched them again. Like you something just doesn't click with me and this series. They are fun for me for about a week then the honeymoon period ends and I ask myself why did I buy another one of these games.
@duffmmann I too enjoy Rune Factory/Harvest Moon games. At the very least Portia would scratch that itch while we wait. (Although I thought Stardew Valley would satiate me and it did not.)
@N8tiveT3ch borderlands on vita was a sluggish buggy nightmare!!! My vita worked fine before I got that game and ever since it has been plagued with corrupted files.
@Wavey84 Gyro controls for handheld mode would be cool! I agree with the ugly white reticule. A red dot would have been better or they could have even implemented unlockable ones.
Will RE4 have motion controls? I hope it does, I loved that game on Wii. Even though I already own 0 and REmake on Gamecube and 4 on Wii, I will be grabbing these.
@Equinox Didn't XCX have an off TV mode? I thought you just paused the game to look at the maps and use your beacon things(can't remember what they are called).
I might have to give this a go. Phantasy Star 2 is one of my favorite Genesis games and PSO is one of my all time favorite games. It would be cool to play the game that started it all.
@Silly_G I agree completely. The ending was a huge let down. I feel no need to play any further. I haven't collected all the moons or costumes but feel no need to do either. Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 were much better games imo.
Edit: Not to say that I got no joy from this game. Far from it. I was having a blast until the anticlimactic ending came way too fast.
I was 3 when this came out! I still remember when my parents handed me that awesome yellow box! I've played this at least once a year since it released.
Ok this looks really cool. I really enjoyed Retro City Rampage. Looks like a day one buy for me. I am surprised to see it's coming out for Vita and 3DS.

Re: Game Boy Classic Zelda: Link's Awakening Is Getting Remastered For Switch
@RatKing64 The graphics and the whole feel of it looks like a 3DS game.
Re: Game Boy Classic Zelda: Link's Awakening Is Getting Remastered For Switch
Glad this is coming to Switch and not 3DS.
Re: Feature: What We Expect From The February Nintendo Direct

Brother Tree sounds like a LotR spinoff about Ents. It'd be niche, but I'd play it.
@Blitzenexx This needs to happen!!!
Re: Nintendo Direct To Air Tomorrow, Wednesday 13th February
Hopefully something cool like Metroid Prime Trilogy available now, at the end of the direct.

Isn't this basically a mini game collection?

@frogopus 2 it is then. Thank you for the reply!
Re: Phantasy Star Joins The Sega AGES Line On Switch Today
I might have to give this a go. Phantasy Star 2 is one of my favorite Genesis games and PSO is one of my all time favorite games. It would be cool to play the game that started it all.
Re: Hamster Reveals Latest Batch Of Neo Geo Titles Heading for Switch
What is the difference between Puzzle Bobble 1 and 2. Is the sequel just more of the same? Just wondering if I get only one of them, which to buy?

Re: The Switch Version Of Aragami: Shadow Edition Has Been Delayed Until Early 2019
This looks interesting. I dont normally like stealth games but the powers you get look like fun. Kind of reminds me of Blood Omen 2 in that regard.
Re: Review: SNK 40th Anniversary Collection - A Lovingly-Assembled Retro Anthology That Hits The Right Notes
@Rogueleader76 thank you for answering my question! I am excited that they have the home console versions as well!
Re: Review: SNK 40th Anniversary Collection - A Lovingly-Assembled Retro Anthology That Hits The Right Notes
Do you only get one go at each game or do they have an "insert quarter" button so you can keep playing?
Re: Feature: Port Masters Virtuos On Bringing Dark Souls: Remastered To Switch And Future Projects

Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct Announced For 1st November
Omg it comes out soon! Show some new games! What more do they have to show with this game?
Re: Nintendo Celebrates The First Anniversary Of Super Mario Odyssey
@Silly_G I agree completely. The ending was a huge let down. I feel no need to play any further. I haven't collected all the moons or costumes but feel no need to do either. Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 were much better games imo.
Edit: Not to say that I got no joy from this game. Far from it. I was having a blast until the anticlimactic ending came way too fast.
Re: Nintendo Celebrates The First Anniversary Of Super Mario Odyssey
I haven't played since I beat the story mode. After seeing the end I had no desire to collect more power moons.
