I feel like they’d have to charge for these games. They haven’t milked them as much as with SNES and NES

As someone who thoroughly enjoyed Federation Force, the Metroid community is one of the worst.

@RickD Makes sense. I kind of think they probably made some money on Labo anyway. I haven’t seen any extras on store shelves and the price point was pretty high. Either way, the system they built for it is solid so I’m glad to see them doing something with it. I’ve noticed a lot of colleges in the US opening up game development programs, so I think there will definitely be a lot of interest. Only thing is they should have slapped ‘Nintendo’ at the beginning of the logo.

Thank God they’re only charging 30 for this. Someone smart must have spoken up about it in some meeting.

Surprised by the low score. This one is still my favorite... but may have more to do with nostalgia.

Heist 2 please

I want a remaster Miyamoto. Stop playing dumb 😑

Getting Master Chief collection on Switch would be pretty awesome.

Nintendo may neglect their old IP, but they’re smart enough to throw us a bone every once in a while. I don’t expect a new F Zero, but a collection or HD remake would be nice.

Nintendo is most generous and experimental when they’re struggling or trying to fill in for third parties not being present. Think to all the creative things in the 3DS Wii U era. Just something like the Mario v DK amiibo game seems like something they wouldn’t do now. Labo, ring fit and Mario Kart Home Circuit are still 10 times more interesting than what other companies are doing, but it still feels like things are missing. We thought that we were gonna get all the handheld and console games together and it doesn’t seem like we’re getting that.

@ObeseChihuahua2 And I’m not saying it’s right either, but people actually expecting Nintendo to act how the want is just a recipe for disappointment.

@ObeseChihuahua2 Yeah, not everything fans think is a bad business decision is actually a bad business decision. Try explaining that to someone who wants to own Mario 35 forever though

I really don’t see what the big deal is. I got my copy. I assume most people that wanted one got one too. If they wipe out All Stars on the Switch app then I’d probably be upset

Really wish they’d put Aliens vs Predator in that Capcom collection, but probably out of the question.

Actually hoping for a Let’s Go title. I really liked the first one.

I ca t believe they actually still have a market big enough to make money on these. I still want their Phazon suit model from like 2009 but they don’t do reprints

Finished the Wii version right around the time BOTW came out. I’ll skip it but it really was a much better game than people have it credit for.

I had some shares I sold when it got to 90 dollars, made 2 grand. Now it’s 4 times that much. Cant say I’m disappointed though. I was fully ready to lose the 125 I put in. Thanks Reddit 🙂

I waited till 500 hours in to finally beat Ganon a couple months ago. Even did all the DLC. Now I’ve just got to get those monster medallions 😞

Looks great! I’m gonna miss Professor Oak though... and the Blockbuster Kiosks.

Still my favorite 3D Mario game.

I only just learned about Aura Aura Climber. If they’d announced this ahead of time, I’m sure someone would have highlighted it as a good one to grab. Too late I guess

@HeyItsFlapjack you’re right on the money. They always told us to say ‘we carry content for the ENTIRE family’. Had a few old dudes open personal accounts they asked to keep hidden from their wives.

@FatMamaCass same here! I worked there 3 years. Crazy that this British site is reporting on it haha. It’s hard to describe to people, but it really was an energetic and fun place to work... except for the inventories and tickler stuff...

@RobotReptile As a former employee I can speak to that. The family that ranFamily Video would always buy the property the store was on outright. I think that’s why they just lasted longer. Their stores never had to cover rent, just utilities and payroll. Lots of people wondered how we stayed in business but it was really just responsible management.

@sketchturner haha , nice! Were you taking the codes out of the boxes on the shelf?

Crazy to see a story about this on Nintendolife. It’s mostly a US Midwest thing. I worked there for 3 years actually starting in 2013. It’s crazy how even then there were people who thought video stores were all gone. People forget that at the beginning of this last decade, most people still didn’t have smart phones or stream any video. For context, back then we had almost 800 stores. Even for a small store, we were usually really busy, like 4 people on the clock on a weekend night. Honestly, it was more fun to me than the job I had bartending before. Also, Family Video was just such a nice, organized store with a well curated library. I stopped in tonight to grab up some sales and got Astral Chain for 20. I’d rather have the store back though. Heres to hoping that someone will find a new twist on the video store in the future.

Galaxy 2 is what I’m actually play right now. Trying to beat it for the first time before the new year. Would love to see Nintendo acknowledge it at some point soon.

Man, I feel the awkwardness for Reggie haha

How bout Pokémon trading card game 2 for GBC

I like the voice. Honestly, a lot of criticism that people have to bring often just comes down to a matter of taste. This Zelda is a little more prim and proper than the kinds of tough girl ideal we’ve seen a lot of in other media.

Will never forget how I got this. Gave my mon the money to pick it up for me while I was on a 3 day school field trip to Washington DC. We played gold and silver all the way there and back and when I got home Stadium 2 was waiting for me. Was nice to know that however much I liked the trip, I’d have a sweet new game to play at the end.

These were great games. Too bad only the older generation got to experience them.

@getyourak Yeah, it really does. I’ve been playing it on an HDMI converter recently and it just looks and plays amazingly still.

They need to just port GX already. It can’t get better than GX.

You guys really need to change the headline from ‘leak’ to ‘hack’. I know it’s acknowledged in the first sentence, but there really is a big difference. I’m fine with us all talking about it, but let’s just admit the info is a result of theft.

I just finished my GameCube Save file for the final championship race in NFS Hot Pursuit 2 last night... after 18 years. Time for Hot Pursuit 3.

I bought a Used one in holiday of 2015. I felt late to the game but it was only 2 years old, and it was dead by then too. I got it off the Nintendo.com online store and still can’t believe the insane deals I found on some games on there. Mario Kart 8 and New Mario U for just 20 bucks. I defended Star Fox when it came out, but there really wasn’t much else coming out back then. Still play it fairly often.

Just did it now so I could boot up Badge Arcade

This thing really should have included 2, 3, world and some more game & watch games. At 50 bucks that would have been entirely appropriate.

Was really hyped by this game last year and ended up mostly satisfied. I just wish this genre had one accessible title that made it really take off with people. Hopefully it’s popularity in Japan could lead to a sequel.

This is a shot in the arm for the Switch. A year from now it was going to be really hard to get new ports to the system. Of course I’ll complain if Nintendo ever stops making games that play natively, but I trust that they realize how important that is to their fans and to the gaming experience that it will always have a place.

I’m all for it. It was going to be harder and harder for Nintendo to get good ports in the next generation anyway.

If this is what it takes to keep the 3rd party games coming to Nintendo platforms, I’m all for it.

I still feel like this one was a little half baked, at least some of the Kingdoms were. Would like to see them try something new again, more polished and classic in design.

Pachter needs a swirley.

Really should have been shadow dropped for free on the NES app, but I’m not complaining. Now how about those Famicom Wars games...?

Really looking forward to this. Day one purchase.

I get error messages every time I try to play. Kinda pathetic.

This really upsets me. I can’t even log onto Mario Kart Tour without an error code... and even if I were awarded the credit for doing so, it’s not till the 28th... whoops, too late. I give Nintendo a lot of passes and defend them a lot, but putting out a pin set I never had a chance of getting is not fair to me and not fair to other loyal fans.
