Of course they would finally add games a month after I decide to spend coins on the Pikmin theme, due to there being no games to redeem the gold coins on.
Now I really want Zen Pinball 3D, but I'm a few coins short...
Be sure to play this in public! With the Switch, you can now take Gal*Gun with you wherever you go! Play Gal*Gun on the bus! Play Gal*Gun at the cafe! Play Gal*Gun at the library!
Yes, but now there will be no way to get direct screenshots of 3DS or Wii U games, which was something Miiverse was really useful for. I personally loved the "Screenshot Album" on the 3DS version of Miiverse.
Game & Wario wasn't really a WarioWare game as it was a mini-game collection with the characters and world of WarioWare. WarioWare is known for its micro-games, of which Game & Wario only had as part of the "Gamer" mini-game.
Even if we were to count Game & Wario, that still came out 4 years ago. It's time for a new game.
And yeah, I think this Striker Pack is definitely Inti Creates laying the foundation for Gunvolt 3 on Switch (and possibly a dual release on 3DS, like with Blaster Master Zero and Mighty Gunvolt Burst).
In my opinion, it looks like a true successor to Sonic 3 & Knuckles, which is one of my favorite video games of all time. If you like the classic Sonic games (Sonic 1, 2, 3, CD, or S&K), or even some of the other 2D ones (like Advance), then definitely pick this up. If you like platformers but aren't familiar with Sonic, then this might be a great first experience for you. Plus it is only $20 for the standard version.
Pretty much my feelings as well. I loved Generations and this looks like it could be similar to that, but the fact that characters talk to you during gameplay and (some of) the avatar's gameplay are making me raise an eyebrow.
There's also no lives system anymore, and you can't get your rings back when you get hit, which just feels weird to me...
Unless they are being big time jerks about it, isn't being happy people got their pre-orders cancelled a little extreme? I mean, I'd be excited if I were able to secure one, and I'd like to share that excitement, but I wouldn't be like "Ha ha! I got one and you didn't, suck it!"
If this were real and the improvements were worth it, I'd dip.
Like, having all of Map Pack DLC from the 3DS version (including the maps that never got released in NA) on top of upscaled graphics would be enough for me to buy the game again.
I'm buying the Gunvolt Striker Pack for Switch for a similar reason (plus 60 FPS, and the Japanese version having some cool goodies alongside one of the physical releases they have over there).
I was fortunate enough to get the North American one they had for Black Friday before they sold out.
The transfer from my old Aqua Blue 3DS was a PAIN, but it was a pretty worthwhile upgrade IMO. I guess I should try to get some new faceplates for it before they end production on those too...
I hated it at first, but the more I listen to it, the more I start to like it... I really like the end part in particular.
But I still like the instrumental version a lot more.
I'm looking forward to the rest of the soundtrack. I'm also looking forward to the game itself, but I'm not nearly as excited for it as I am for Mania.
This is pretty awesome news! I wasn't expecting characters from other companies to be making appearances as DLC. Just like Gunvolt, they look like they play pretty much the same way that they do in their own games, which is fantastic and I love that Inti Creates goes the extra mile to do that.
@Shiryu The developers have already confirmed that that Mighty Gunvolt Burst will have Ekoro for DLC, as well as "many more characters to come". Here is the source.

Re: The Sonic Movie is Now Being Produced by Paramount
Good, Sony Pictures sucks.
But I still wish they had of just put the Sonic OVA (called "Sonic The Hedgehog: The Movie" in America) in theaters...
Re: Feature: Learn More About Indie Pogo, a Quirky Brawler Featuring Iconic Nindies
I hope they can get the full Runbow cast in this. I'd love to see Rusty, Gunvolt, and Shantae playable!
Re: Poll: A Retro Quest - Were You Able to Buy a Super NES Classic Edition / SNES Mini?
I have an Amazon pre-order, but it hasn't even shipped yet... Nor is there a delivery date...
Re: Nintendo Download: 28th September (North America)
Definitely picking up the Mighty Gunvolt Burst DLC, assuming that comes out today.
Re: My Nintendo in North America Adds Free Games to its Gold Rewards

Re: Mighty Gunvolt Burst Gets Two New DLC Characters
Joule being playable for the first time ever makes me super happy.
I really hope these are available in NA tomorrow. I want to get them A.S.A.P.
Re: Place Your Bets and Check Out the Casino Forest 'Classic' Stage in Sonic Forces
I like it, but I feel like there's really no need for the speed boosters. Just have the player learn to use the spindash and drop dash.
Re: Video: Celica Joins The Battle In Fire Emblem Warriors
Nice!
Re: Shoot Some Pheromones When Gal Gun 2 Comes To Switch Later This Year

What could possibly go wrong?!
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th September (North America)
Just the Project Octopath Traveler demo for me.
Re: Runbow Is Coming to the Switch in Winter 2017
Yes! This was a great game on Wii U!
Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt Has Passed 250k Sales on 3DS
An excellent game with an even better sequel.
We need Gunvolt 3.
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st August (North America)
Wasn't there also supposed to be a Voez demo today?
Re: Sonic Forces Gets North American Release Date and a Snazzy Pre-Order Bonus Edition
Ok, those costumes are pretty freakin' cool.
Especially the Persona 5 one. I never saw it coming.
Re: Nintendo Ordered to Pay $10 Million Following Patent Lawsuit Loss
Huh. Have they lost to similar lawsuits in the past?
Re: Review: Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack (Switch)
Just waiting for that physical release...
Re: SteamWorld Dig 2 Arrives on 21st September, Image & Form Confirms Pricing
Glad to see it's bigger and better than the original. Can't wait!
Re: Dragon: Marked for Death is the Next Game From Inti Creates - Exclusive on Switch
Well it's by Inti Creates, so it's already a day 1 purchase for me.
Re: The Plug Will Finally Be Pulled On Miiverse In November
@Kalmaro
Yes, but now there will be no way to get direct screenshots of 3DS or Wii U games, which was something Miiverse was really useful for. I personally loved the "Screenshot Album" on the 3DS version of Miiverse.

Re: Nintendo Happy To "Leave Door Open" For More Rhythm Heaven Games
I would love more of this series.
WarioWare too, as we haven't had a proper one of those since the DS.
Re: Check Out the Tag Team Gameplay of Sonic Forces
I'm probably in the minority here, but I thought that Metal Sonic remix sounded like ass. I like most of Forces' music so far, but geez...
Perfectly fine if others like it, but I didn't care for it personally.
Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack Is Getting a Physical Release
Gonna have to wait. I want that physical copy.
And yeah, I think this Striker Pack is definitely Inti Creates laying the foundation for Gunvolt 3 on Switch (and possibly a dual release on 3DS, like with Blaster Master Zero and Mighty Gunvolt Burst).
Re: Poll: 99 Games and Counting - Are You Pleased With the Switch eShop Library?
Blaster Master Zero and Mighty Gunvolt Burst are still keeping me busy.
The DLC adds a lot of replay value.

I love this so much! Thank you, Tyson Hesse and Hyper Potions!
BTW, here's the full version of the music used for the opening, in case anyone is interested:

Yo, that Conquest Ablaze remix is LIT.
Re: Random: GameCube Listings on Nintendo Websites Raise Hopes for Switch, But Don't Get Too Excited
I would love Sonic Adventure on the Switch.
And isn't Doshin the Giant that one game that had a trophy in Melee? I'd like to try that game out.
Re: Nintendo Download: 10th August (North America)
I have the Special Edition of Sonic Mania pre-ordered on Amazon! I can't wait, but according to Amazon, it won't arrive until the 16th.
:/
Re: The Nintendo World Championships 2017 Have Been Announced
I'll always be annoyed that they have a subsidiary in Austin, yet they fail to do events like this in Austin.
Re: Sonic Mania's Competition Mode Brings Back Splitscreen Memories
This game just keeps getting better and better! This mode will be perfect on the Switch.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd August (North America)
For Shovelry! (In Blaster Master Zero.)
And I might go for that I am Setsuna discount...

I'll be getting the Ekoro DLC for Mighty Gunvolt Burst.
Love ya, Inti Creates. <3

Re: 'Elite Angel' Ekoro to be Added as DLC to Mighty Gunvolt Burst
Glad to see Inti Creates making the DLC characters for this game unique too.
Ekoro even apparently has her own little story, which I wasn't expecting.
Re: Video: Get a Good Look at Infinite, the New Villain in Sonic Forces
That's Jun Senoue on guitar for Infinite's theme BTW, according to his Twitter.
Great to have him back in the Sonic series again.

Squid game has collaboration with Squid anime (Squid Girl), then gets its own anime.
We've come full circle.

Re: Nintendo Download: 6th July (North America)
Blaster Master Zero's Shantae DLC for me.
Re: Video: Experience an Awakening With this Fire Emblem Warriors Story Trailer
I love Awakening, so this trailer makes me quite happy. And we get our first non-sword characters shown, nice!
Re: First Impressions: Running Scared from Sonic Forces
Well at least we have Mania next month. I have complete confidence that it will be a fantastic game, and will be cherished for years to come.

Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects - June 2017
Well Gunvolt and Shantae are my two favorite indie series, so I can say I completely agree with these results.
