I'm kidding.
Pretty underwhelming really.
A trailer for a game we knew about (Zelda), yet another Wii U port, DLC sold as an individual game (Mario Party) and remakes
The best thing was Metroid Dread.
No MP4 yet we see Dread?!?
Bit of a worry
Just being honest.
I have both Game & Watch collections, Mario Galaxy and Zelda OST, Mario Kart 8 pins and a Mario Hat shaped 3DS case. All tucked away in a nice glass cabinet.
Nintendo have to pull out all the biggies to top this for me and E3 hasn't even happened yet. The first game is one of my top games on the Switch. To have GK back on board is the icing on the cake.
Can't wait until 2031 when we finally get N64 and GameCube games. Keep them coming Nintendo, really enjoying watching the slow drip feed. It's like watching paint dry, so exciting.
Not included in this list, Surviving joycon drift.
A story bout a Switch owner who goes on a perilous journey to find the holy grail, a joycon with no drift.
The twist?
There is none.
I bought a release day Switch and had to send it back 3 times within its first 2 months of owning it as it was faulty straight out of the box.
It had a faulty SD card reader, ( didn't read ANY SD cards, even the ones they recommend), game card reader (would work on occasion), left joycon drift (which it still has after they supposedly fixed it) and a cracked casing.
So I refuse to buy another lemon until they release a console that works without faults.
Hopefully the supposed Pro has a better build quality so I can actually buy another.
Until then, I'm not going near another one.
Awesome.
I took about 15 to finish my Australian N64 collection all complete with instruction manuals etc.
Got my last game a week ago, Rat Attack.
It is now fully completed.
@The_New_Butler Yeah I have lucked out on a lot of the more expensive ones I picked up Snowboard Kids 2 for $90, StarCraft 64 I got for around the same. That was as few years ago now, things sure a re a lot more expensive now.
@AndyC_MK
Don't be sorry at all, it's a fair question.
Yeah I know it seems obsessive and it probably is, I was left a little bit of money by my father in his will who passed away and I already had a fair collection and he and I love the 64 so i thought why not go for a full collection.
I'm glad I did because I have played a lot of games I would never normally play and have found some great games I otherwise would have never known existed.
Yes, I definitely will be playing every single game and will be reviewing them in alphabetical order.
Crazy I know.
Physical Collector.
I have a full CIB Pal Australian N64 Collection (243 games plus variants) which I have just recently completed.
It has taken me over 10 years to complete and I absolutely loved collecting them.
I have made some good friends out of it and have accumulated some great relationships with fellow collectors.
Sometimes it's the journey that goes with collecting that makes it even more satisfying.
Still playing my Evercade and with the recent announcement of the VS I am even more excited. Pre ordered and ready to go. Also playing God of War and Wreckfest on .my PS4.
Or like me you can play it on your actual N64 with your kids and teach them all about Retro gaming and how it used to be and start a new generation of retro gamers.
Or is that just me?
I have a full Australian N64 collection (243 games) all CIB.
All my games get played
I also have a nice Cube, Wii U and Wii collection (some still sealed) with 80+ games in each.
Ii love complete games on a shelf
I just picked up the Super Mario Power A controller.
It is very good.
It has motion controls, rechargeable built in battery and looks great.
The only thing it is missing is rumble.
Great controller for the price.
My kids love it
