Strange for this one. There's not really much interest at all for this title

So most of us are sick of seeing Geoff at this point, right?

Well why couldn't they get it right the first time around then?

@vio I wouldn't say "awful". It's just a very bare bones game.

I think Sonic Unleashed probably makes the most sense

The curse of New Super Mario Bros. Wii is over?

I am surprised this comment section is still open

@IceEarthGuard Well a few years ago Nintendo were exposed with making a deal with Twitch in exchange for them banning Project M (Super Smash Bros. Brawl Mod) from being streamed on their site. In the end Nintendo didn't contribute their end of the bargain despite Twitch doing exactly what they wanted.

I will say the amount of marketing work put behind this remake has been unbelievable to say the least. Like the amount of effort is on the tier of a mainline Zelda release at this point

Ehh was planning on going to the Nintendo New York store anyways to purchase this game. Always wanted to go there for a day 1 first party release

I cannot imagine the reveal will be during the early part of 2025. It has to be late 2024 we'll see the reveal just like with the Switch

I don't know how Rainbow Cruse would work on Switch though

I'm only interested in a set that features Pekoe. She's my favorite villager

@Novamii TTYD is a major step up in almost every way indeed. Though it's just my preference, I still think the first game has the best chapter in the entire series (Chapter 7).

I'd complain that it's a couple of obscure titles but I still haven't gotten the expansion pass for NSO and I'm in no mood to get it still

I hate how much this series has stagnated after such a promising revival

@dodgeskill100 Bait spotted

I'm sick of having to join Discord servers for mods. Especially ones that require you to have a phone number linked to your Discord account????

Anybody remember how the US marketing team for TTYD back then were 100% silent about everything after chapter 2? I always found that to be odd when the Japanese marketing team wasn't afraid of showing stuff up until chapter 6.

Hmm they added a bit more to the title theme at around 0:27

As a reminder, Jim Ryan doesn't understand why people would want to play old games

Warioware Twisted would be the game that would actually make this enticing. At least GBA emulators support gyro controllers

@nhSnork You can make a DMCA claim for anything as long as you own the IP in question and the legal team to back you up. Nintendo and Game Freak can go on a power trip and decimate anyone on Youtube that makes videos featuring their IPs if they wanted and nobody could stop them

Why would you punish a forum instead of the actual fangames?

@Thomystic I don't mean to be rude but did anybody really asked for the side modes in the Superstar Saga and Bowser's Inside Story remakes? I didn't play Bowser Jr.'s Journey but I really did not like Bowser's Minions at all.

If it's true than I called it when it was first announced! I wonder why they haven't officially disclosed it's them though

@DwaynesGames I don't remember if it was Reggie or Bill Trinen but one of them said it was never the "controversial content" in the game that was stopping Nintendo from localizing it. It's most likely the music breaking copyright laws outside of Japan. Before you bring up Earthbound, that game's music fits in an IP law loophole.

@strongest_link Well tbf the 3D feature was something the last 3rd of the 3DS era kinda dropped or had it as an afterthought

Rhythm Heaven DS would have to be heavily reworked
Megamix can function easily so long as they find a way to display the timing feedback that the touchscreen is used for in that game

@Yozora146_ Wow you lack so much nuanced in this situation. Do you not understand how the legal system works when it comes to the little guy vs a big company? This was a lose-lose situation because Yuzu devs were going to be stun locked into bankruptcy if they chose to fight Nintendo's legal team.

I highly doubt it was about the Patreon. Otherwise Nintendo themselves would've stated that instead of blaming them over people downloading Tears of The Kingdom when people don't only use emulators to play games they don't own since software and hardware console modding is a thing

It also wasn't smart to get Arzest to make this game but that's just my opinion. I don't think the game is bad but it was still a disappointment in my book

@Friendly Essentially which is kinda infuriating that they have that much disregard for many of their old IPs

Not sure how Yuzu was made but I'm sure they were not stupid and actually reverse engineered the Switch which would make the emulator legal

@Friendly Sony cares about their old games... it's just that the ones they care about are titles they don't own which include Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy 7, Crash Bandicoot and Spyro trilogies. All of their legacy titles they actually own they seem to not really care much about except maybe Ratchet & Clank and God of War.

Alright fine I'll get it on my PS5 instead then

@Clyde_Radcliffe ....Microsoft did not ruin Rare... they let them make whatever games they wanted. Only thing Microsoft was guilty of was not hiring new talent after most of the staff that was there before the buyout left the company.

Btw Rare refused to make a Banjo Threeie because they thought there wasn't an install base for it on the Xbox due to Grabbed by The Ghoulies not selling well.

Oh yeah sure. Go on ahead and lay off the people that make 3D Platformers. Totally justified and makes sense. (Sarcasm)

@KayFiOS It will suck if/when they do but go get it on Steam during the Summer sale if that's the concern if you haven't already

@KeeperBvK I meant "only other" Sorry was tired last night and posted that without proofreading. Anyways the first one in question was Night Trap, the game that seemed to be a bit of a punching bag here back when it was announced that game was getting a HD remaster.

@Slain That was the 2nd and only Limited Run Switch game I got and it weirds me out how sought after that game is

@DanijoEX-the-Pierrot Oh wow same story for me even with the younger sibling part.

For some reason it feels like this game's difficulty and level design never gets mentioned at all especially for it's tendency to be very slow and tedious late game with way too much stopping and waiting.

I remember the difficulty curve being a bit dumb in the later levels in the GBA original so Casual Mode is a welcomed addition.

If it's Hi-Fi Rush.... I hope it's not the cloud streaming version that's on Xbox One

@FoxyDude You got way more than enough time. This can easily be fully completed within a few hours given how grand prixs come up every hour

So the workers were just very overzealous according to Geoff? Well we have no way of knowing if that's the truth or an excuse

@Bolt_Strike Microsoft didn't stop Rare from making what they wanted afaik though. If they did I'm pretty sure former Rare employees would've spoken up about that by now.

Remember guys: Rare actively chose to not make a Banjo Threeie on Xbox because they thought there wasn't an install base for that game.... they base their reasoning off of Grabbed By The Ghoulies not selling well.

Sure Grabbed By The Ghoulies might've did better on the Gamecube but I cannot imagine it would've been that huge of a difference.

I have still yet to play either of their games. I'm fine with A Hat in Time being the only 3D platform game I'll play (at least until Billie Bust Up releases)... Though it's interesting to know Impossible Lair seems to have a bit of a cult following in this community since it seems to not get talked about anywhere else.

David Zaslav sounds like a wonderful, intelligent human being that understands the gaming industry and people who like to play video games
