This developer really does seem serious about making a great game from their previous updates so one last delay by just a month is perfectly understandable.
Showing that Square Enix does not know how to read a room whatsoever considering that basically EVERYONE'S been asking why this collection isn't coming to consoles since the moment of its announcement.
Gonna be perfectly honest: Nintendo exclusives aside, the Steam Deck really does seem like the Switch Pro we were hoping for. The price is a little scary, especially if you want the best version, but does look like a neat piece of hardware.
It's looking like they're doing what they can to make this a Greatest Hits Monkey Ball game we've been wanting; just hope it's more WarioWare Gold/Rhythm Heaven Megamix and less Mario Party: The Top 100...
30 fps isn't a deal breaker but will say this does highlight even more how a true enhanced model Switch would benefit multi-platform releases like this.
Still holding out hoping that Nintendo is avoiding spoilers and that a certain imprisoned one will have at least ONE of their boss fights cut. You all know who I'm talking about..
So sounds like it's a fun game but somewhat lacking in content and personality. Par for the course for Mario sports spin-offs as of late unfortunately (no pun intended) but hopefully post-launch updates flesh things out and make it a solid discount purchase down the line like Mario Tennis Aces before it.
Interested in the Evil Dead game and Metal Slug Tactics but that's about it as far as what really got me excited. New FromSoftware game looks cool but need to play more Bloodborne or get into Dark Souls before I can get hyped for it.
Think another noteworthy E3 Nintendo moment is basically the entirety of their 2010 presentation considering just how many big games they showed one after the other AND introduced the 3DS with the return of the Kid Icarus series. Not even the live demo of Skyward Sword going wrong could take away the pure momentum that presentation had.
Cool, I love Roger as Sonic so glad he's back but...why was his departure even announced at all if he was just going to return not even half a year later? What's going on over at Sega?
@Agent_5 Really only if you're down with the idea of all enemies hitting like a truck with the Ganondorf amiibo in Hero Mode. The Wolf Link dungeon is fine but it's basically another Cave of Ordeals.
@mudmask Any Link amiibo refilled your arrows, Zelda/Sheik refilled your hearts, and Ganondorf doubled enemy damage. Really, only Wolf Link and Ganondorf had worthwhile features but they were there at least.
The fact that the Ganondorf amiibo doesn't multiply enemy damage hurts me; playing Twilight Princess HD with that function in Hero mode was so stressful but fun and I was hoping Skyward Sword HD would have the same feature.
I love the mini consoles I have; even got the PlayStation Classic I have to an enjoyable state after some..."creative programming". I'm kind of a sucker for both the the novelty of having these mini legacy consoles on my game shelf along with the convenience of multiple classic games in one HDMI-enabled system on my TV so I'd be all for Nintendo revisiting the idea with the N64. Maybe even commission M2 to help if they don't feel like doing it all internally.
Was kind of hoping for a bigger update than just slightly tweaking events we already had but being able to leave dreams with - is a small but nice quality of life addition.
The fact that they changed Sherlock Holmes' name by just moving the S in his first name to the beginning of his last name is both dumb and amazing all at once. Perfectly on-brand for the usual "Frank Sahwit" style of the localizations.
It's still unfortunate that this great game's legacy is forever tied to its creator generally being a self-righteous jerk and having an absolute meltdown on Twitter.
I remember playing this game when I was still actively watching RWBY and even as a very biased fanboy of the series at the time, I thought it was so boring; I understand it was initially a fan-game that Rooster Teeth decided to publish but even taking that into account, it just felt unrefined and empty. Unless they polished the gameplay and add Team SSSN as playable characters, probably gonna skip this port/remaster.
Wow. Well, that would explain a lot. Still really glad that Max is doing okay now and also good to hear Charl is also okay and now has a little kitty companion.
Honestly, I'm still grappling with the reality that Daft Punk split after all these years. Guess they couldn't do it forever but electronic music just isn't the same without them.
Sounds like it has potential to be a fun little timekiller/novelty. Just hope it doesn't get greedy with microtransactions like Nintendo's other mobile games have been doing recently.
This game doesn't need a patch, it needs to be significantly delayed; it's simply not ready in its current state based on what I played in the demo. I know Yuji Naka can do better and I know the dev team can do better.
Aaaand still around the same time the cherry blossom DIYs start appearing and it will be next to impossible to get them because of all the stupid eggs. Wonderful.

Re: Poll: What's The Best 2D Sonic Game?
You remembered Sonic Spinball and Sonic Blast and yet are missing the DS version of Sonic Colors, aka the third and best Rush game.
Re: Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Will Have "Various Quality-Of-Life Enhancements", Nintendo Says
Still seems kind of lacking compared to the improvements made to Twilight Princess and (especially) Wind Waker's HD outings.
Re: "Important" Pokémon UNITE News Will Be Shared Tomorrow
Only good announcement about this game at this point would be that it would be cancelled or completely denounce the Tencent partnership.

Re: Talking Point: If Nintendo Released Them, Would You Play Virtual Boy Games In 2021?
VB Wario Land and Jack Bros. alone would make resurrecting the Virtual Boy library worth it.
