Yay this looks fantastic! Also would love to play Wizardry Tale of the Forsaken Land again. Love it 😍

Fantastic interview thank you!! I for one really appreciate the direction Atari is taking and hope it goes well for them.

Big fan of Ufouria the Saga, so keen to give this a go. Lovely to see Sunsoft back 🥲

Got Shiren 5 for 9 bucks on sale a couple of weeks ago, so will spend some time with it first before getting this. Loved Shiren on the DS, whatever that one was called. Great series

Really want to play this, a rare castlevania that I have not played yet!

Notebook looks alright, though probably not worth the extra cash if you can get the game cheaper I’d say.

Haha this was great, keep the good times coming NL!

Nintendo Switchiepoo.

Would love to own a Super Switch though ❤️

*smugly looks over at the physical edition with cart that I got for Christmas here in Australia

Havent played it much yet though, Super Mario RPG has distracted me.

Ah January, great time to release Christmas themed games apparently...

Nice surprise this, i had either not seen or forgotten that this was coming. I have fond memories of playing these on SNES. Aah simpler times..

Looks great, love these sort of games.

Sounds great, thanks for the review, I would never have heard of it otherwise. Looking forward to a cracking good time!

But Slim, what if you win, wouldn’t it be weird ?

I like the green of the DS article here on NL! So nice… Also I don’t think I’ve seen a box art brawl this close!

I’m waiting on the physical. But if it is indeed a code in the box here in Australia also, they can stick it. It’s a shame though I was genuinely looking forward to this.

Anyone know if this has been patched? This sounds fun if they fix it.

I thought it was lame at first, then I grew to like it, and now it’s stuck in my head all damn day

It makes me happy to see this. The Wii U legacy lives on

Throwing out a positive(!) comment to mix with the above. I paid fortyish Aussie dollars for this in the early days and it is my most played switch game. As in more than BOTW and TOTK and Dragon Quest 11S. So I think I got my moneys worth. I have never felt inclined to spend any more money on the game, nor do I feel like there is anything too predatory there.

I understand it’s different for other people, and maybe kids would want to buy all the cosmetic stuff though, so that’s fair. But if it were free to play they would probably push this aspect even more?

Personally I like this game and have gotten back into it for Halloween season. Glad it is not being overhauled to be F2P.

I remember my mum taking me to the toy shop to buy a new game when I was a kid. For some reason I chose this. I wanted to like it but it was just way too confusing for me at the time. Shame, I could have chosen something else lol.

I played through the first one, was a bit boring sadly. Too many other games to play to get this one.

Shame. I was unironically looking forward to this.

Sounds awesome. I’ve only really ever spent heaps of time with the first game, and dabbled in a couple of others. The first game holds a special place in my heart ❤️ and I’m looking forward to getting this when it releases here tomorrow in physical format!

Looks cute! Hope it turns out to be fun 🤩

NMS = Nintendo Magazine System right? Sigh so old….

This looks awesome. Really looking forward to it.

Absolutely fantastic game. A highlight of my early Switch days. Enjoyed it more than Mario.

I really enjoyed Summoner on the PS2, good times!!

Looks good, though i have another Poirot game to play through first.

I played the first one, it was rough. This looks a bit better.

I’d been playing this quite a lot and enjoying it. But then I stopped to play TOTK. And going back to it now I can’t remember what I have to do next. Waaaaaa

Well I’ve never played it, so will pick it up I think! It’s actually a smidge cheaper here in Australia than a “full priced” switch game (and 20 dollary doos less than TOTK) so for me personally it’s worth it. Different scenario for those that played it back in the day tho.

Yeah… nah. Not a fan of the idea or the look of it 💩

Had these on Wii U. Those were some fun times, I miss Miiverse

I paid forty bucks or so, and have got my moneys worth and then some (100+ hours). I havent been a fan of the new additions but the early days were a lot of fun. I have not spent any more money on the game, and never would in future. So i am happy with it staying the way it is also, as when it goes F2P it might get more scummy.

I can understand those that dont want to shell out the upfront cost though, and i certainly wouldnt at this late stage in case it goes free to play suddenly after purchase!

I really wanted to love the first game, so am optimistic about this as the improvements sound good. I found the first a little too fast or something, really hard to keep up with (had no problem with Smash) and a bit boring for the solo player.

Hopefully Garfield is still in there!

Was super excited for this. Big platformer and Disney fan.

Having now finished the game, i'd say it was mostly fun but a little... empty feeling perhaps? Hard to put into words. The controls were excellent and it was funny. I found the characters a smidge too small, and the game a bit too linear and repetitive. Got sick of frequently finding 3 keys for a door. Other than the characters themselves, the hidden mickeys and collectibles it didnt feel that Disney like to me? Though maybe im just old.

I rated it a 7. Good fun but didnt quite satisfy as much as i was hoping. I hope others have fun with it, and i'd love to see more Disney games in the near future.

I didnt get to play multiplayer, that sounds really fun and could be a game changer.

Looks good actually. I might pick it up!

Well now the theme song is stuck in my head…

Sounds like a good deal. Would probably take advantage if I lived in the country!

"ITS ON DA FRITZ!!!"

Some great moments, but yeah it was a massive slog unfortunately. Surprised i actually (eventually) finished it. My backlog must have not been as large in the 3DS days. Wanted to love it.

Still want this, but still baulking at the $90aud price tag. It’s even that price at Big W. I will either trade some games in for it, or snap it up when it goes on sale somewhere.

Not a bad game to play, but I find the menus and upgrades really confusing and off putting.

@rjejr yeah you are probably right, the ship may have sailed for XCX this generation. I just remember reading the reviews for it and it sounded a little different and interesting compared to 2 & 3. I know it didnt review as well though. I finally finished Zelda the other day, so may be in the market for another time sink.

I havent had a Playstation since the second one, wouldn't mind one but I am a handheld gamer now mostly so I probably wouldnt get the value out of it... *looks over at Xbox gathering dust

@rjejr happy 15 years!! I’ve been here maybe 10, lurked for quite a long time. Now I comment but usually on older posts as I am playing catch-up with all the articles I want to read. Not as much time these days. Also there is a bunch more news these days as compared to the Wii U era. But that was a lot of fun!

I enjoy reading your comments and remember some particularly long NEStalgia back and forths lol.

As for me, currently waiting on Xenoblade X to be ported from Wii U. One of the few Wii U games I didn’t play as I was still finishing the original at the time. I don’t want to play 2 or 3 until then.

Could be ok, the last Switch Transformers game was alright. Obviously different genre though.
Shame you just have to play as Bumblebee though.

Valthirian Arc: "fight in strategic turn-based-combat as you experience a narrative spanning over ten years. A STORY SPANNING TEN YEARS "

Wow big emphasis on the ten years!!

I really like the Zelda one. I have a bunch of amiibo stuffed away in my drawer though, so havent bought any in a long time. Might have to get this one for my workdesk perhaps. Hmm

This looks great! Really enjoyed Cruis'n so hopefully this turns out good as well.
