A collection with the Christian Whitehead versions of Sonic 1, 2 and CD plus S3&K in the same vein is my dream for a perfect 16-bit Sonic Collection...
I guess they could throw in Chaotix as well...

@Menardi yes, being a flying space giraffe from Mars really is as equally "out there" as a person being bisexual. You are perfectly right, of course, and I will stop trying to convince you otherwise after this fantastic display of "gotcha!"-reasoning.

@Menardi "a non-homosexual character"
Where has it previously officially been stated that Alucard is NOT bisexual? I'll wait...

@dustinprewitt Agreed! Ellis really elevated the show with his writing and characterization. It may not have been entirely true to the games, but I feel like he played to the format's strengths in a way that most game to film adaptations do not, hence why they usually fail.
Hoping they release a box set with all seasons down the line.

I still don't get why some get so upset seeing graphic sex scenes in media but are a-ok with graphic violence as if it was the most natural thing in the world, but yeah, that's a discussion for another time and place.

Thought this show was great from beginning to end, and the payoffs in season 4 were well worth the wait. Really loved the ending and where the show went with the characters and plotlines. Best video game adaptation I've ever seen by far!

Good! This was a great, cozy little gem and the more who get to play it, the better!

@rockodoodle @RhiannonRune Mario Kart Live Home Circuit

@rockodoodle Yes, I'm talking about the franchise as a whole. As far as I know, Switch is the only Nintendo console that has TWO Mario Kart games, and like I said, the mobile game is out and about as well. Mario Kart 9 for a Switch 2 would be in Nintendo's best interest to sell that console, considering it really is their biggest system seller, and they really don't NEED another one for the Switch.

Tested mine and they work, PAL UK versions for the record.

@dmcc0 The Forza games seem to be available digitally for exactly 4 years before the rights expire. It's been a recurring happening with the last few games being delisted, so if this keeps up, Forza Motorsport 7 will disappear this winter, with Horizon 4 following next year.

Well worth a playthrough. An interesting narrative, some tricky puzzles and really nice art direction and scenery, at least on the Series X.

DLC tracks could be nice. I don't want Nintendo to milk the franchise too much and cause an oversaturation. Apart from 8DX, they've already released the toys to life game and have the mobile game up and running.
MK9 for the next generation is what I'd like to see.

I mean, eventually, the hardware itself will deteriorate too, and replacement parts might not be easy to come by. Better to just accept that it is the way it is and enjoy it for now.

@Xiovanni Because Nintendo... they make great games, but when it comes to hardware convenience and services, they're usually a decade or so behind the compatition.

@SepticLemon There is a DoDonPachi game coming to Switch later this year at least.

Day one! Love these shmup collections for the Switch, and DeathSmiles is an excellent game, one of my favourites.

"a physical release will be available for Switch, although it's not yet available in Europe for pre-order."
If I know Capcom Europe as well as I think I do, we won't be getting a physical release in Europe at all. The EU page only mentions a digital release, so I think it's safe to assume that will be the case.

This sounds a lot like "I'm not taking care of my handheld console and it's Nintendo's fault!"
I bought mine on release and it's still in tip top shape.

Will probably run about as well as Borderlands 2 did on the Vita...

@Dirty0814 Did you watch the trailer? It ends with box shots with ESRB ratings on it, and on the homepage that I linked to, no, you can't preorder the game there yet, but you can select a region, which includes the US. And lastly, it says on the homepage that the game will be distributed by ININ in "North America, Europe and Australia". They really have covered all their bases here and I can't see LRG swooping in here as there is no need at all to do so.

@Dirty0814 That's my point though, it's not only available through SLG, but also their subsidiary, ININ, who will distribute the game at regular retail, worldwide. You should in theory at least, be able to pick up the game at any retailer that sells games. No point in releasing a LRG release at that point.

@Dirty0814 LRG has nothing to do with this. You can check out
https://wonderboy.inin.games/
for more details about the different editions releasing.

I still have my copy sealed, and I have all three games on original hardware. Guess I should just save this one and sell if I ever fall into an economic crisis, huh?
(JK, I won't sell mine, and I will open it and play it someday).

No Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom?
EXCUSE ME BUT WHAT THE HECK!?
EDIT: Saw that it was on the metroidvania list. Carry on!

Preordered! Love the 3DS and this looks great!

"Seven superb games out of eight"
Isn't it ten games?

@FargusPelagius I'm actually thinking that it might have to do with Microsoft exclusivity. Think about it. Both Ninja Gaiden Black and Ninja Gaiden 2 are Microsoft-published games, where Microsoft was even a bit involved in the development, while the Sigma versions are distributed solely by KoeiTecmo. There could be rights and licensing issues holding those games back as well as lost source code.

Shame about the source code. Guess I'll just keep playing NGB and NG2 on my Series X and get the Master Collection physically from Japan for the Switch then.

@MS7000 I'm guessing they were building an emulator not just for Mario Sunshine, but for future GameCube releases as well. If they get one game running, they can probably handle the rest as well without any major hickups. They can then be sold separately on the eShop, so the technology stretches further than just being limited to one single game.

@Ralizah I hope so too, but some companies have cheapened out quite a bit lately, and while Persona 5 Strikers is a new high-profile release, SMT3 is an old game, remastered.
EA pulled this with their recent Need for Speed remaster, and while Sega and EA aren't the same, I still get a bit worried when these things happen.

Japanese GBA boxes are some of my favourites. I love the size of them, and the artwork is usually really well-made. Sometimes I take out my entire boxed collection just to admire it! XD

So will they give us a 16GB cart or will they force a 500MB-1GB download on us?

@superguy123 Hahahahahahahahahahaha!
Okay, dude!
I'm just happy more people get to play a terrific game.
I really don't get what your deal is or what you're hung up over, but whatever it is, you'll probably feel better if you just let it go. XD

@superguy123 lol, what? Are you saying you won't buy a game because it's NOT exclusive to your console of choice? That's really petty, dude! Can't even imagine how many great games you've missed out on with that mentality.

Dragon Quest I & II but not III, V and VI? Lol, ok...

This is a REALLY bad look for Capcom.

I'm not even kidding when I say this is one of my top 3 most anticipated games of the year.

Netflix are so ahead of the curve they'll even delist Netflix from Switch on March 31st!
... oh wait.

@tankymctankus right!? They did announce YW4 for the West, but then we never heard from it again. Would be great if Nintendo could handle the publishing of it. 2 and 3 on the 3DS were great!

So, uhhh... happy birthday?

@Thoughts Pokémon is aimed at kids, and yes, a lot of people grew up with it and still play it as adults, but the fact of the matter is that it is mainly aimed for children, and yes, I can see children appreciating this.

I'm hoping they add more titles down the line. Capcom's arcade history is so rich with great titles, that these 32 just feel like an appetizer. This could be the ultimate Capcom collection, but sadly, it probably won't be.

@HollowSpectre It's listed as having English on the Japanese eShop page, so I'd say that's a given that it does.

AHAHAHAHA! HAHA! Haaaaaaa...
No.

@OorWullie Yeah, Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins for the PSP.

Strange that this doesn't get a physical release anywhere in the world, not even Japan. Would have picked it up immediately for sure. Now I'll wait for a sale.

@Yanina I sure hope not! We still haven't gotten the two excellent Metal Slug games!

@WoomyNNYes I'd rather put my money on Ultra Street Fighter IV. Definitely the better game of the two, and should in theory be a simple enough port. Out of all the games we've seen ports of from Capcom, it eludes me why that one hasn't made the cut.

So it's getting a physical release... in Japan... for like $150...
Yeah, I'm gonna stick to my PS1 original.
Might buy this on a sale or if Square Enix have a change of heart.
