This game was made in a time long before people were deliberately trying to break the game to show on their twitter feeds. It is what it is.

Where’s my Metal Gear compilation already...?

Wow, glad to see this isn’t completely off the radar. I was a big supporter of it, but gotta admit some things were lacking, especially with the environments and story... and let us have some tank legs please... Otherwise a really solid title. Maybe the fact that this genre is completely abandoned means we might see a sequel.

Wait a sec... a game I played in 2003 is getting a shoe based on it? Weird

This was my first experience with the originals so I’m always gonna give it a boost. Certainly as time goes by though this collection is going to feel more and more out of step with the 8bit nostalgia marketing the industry has settled on. Two and Three are definitely improvements though. As a kid I wasn’t even sure that One was remade by Nintendo, it looked so off model.

@Krisi Nice! I had that game back when it came out! I wish they’d do more crossovers with Wario.

@Anguspuss Aw man, I just saw 5 copies of Ring Fit in the shelf here in the US haha. I don’t hold out hope for some of my old weird 3DS titles making a comeback, but I actually think Nintendogs will.

@Krisi hey, nice avatar pic! What game is that sprite from?

@Anguspuss Yeah, I will give Nintendo a pass all day long, but they really should have more output. The only truly unique stuff we’ve seen in this generation I’d say is Labo, Ring Fit and that free Jump Rope Challenge they released, maybe Clubhouse Games. I guess they also published The Stretchers and some butt stomp game back when Switch launched, but they aren’t even really marketing those well as Nintendo games, they just appear in the eShop next to shovelware. I just want a little bit more of that quirky fun they had in every previous generation.

Just another fantastic franchise from the DS era that Nintendo has left in the dustbin, including: Art Academy, Pushmo, Steel Diver, Streetpass games... They used to have no 3rd party support, now it’s all they rely on.

@Milton_Burle If you like Heist, you would love these games. I had a blast with Bomber Crew. I would pick up this one if I had the time.

Maybe it’s time they start giving us some more games for free then. Would be nice.

@Deltath I’d say the character design and the graphics are really beautiful. The Title screen is nice too.

Is this a sponsored article? It kinda reads that way.

@TG16_IS_BAE working on my F zero GX file now haha. Just nice to wrap up stuff I should have finished when I was a kid haha

@TG16_IS_BAE nah, I’m just lazy but I also really wanted to finish it. I’ve done that with a few games. If the progress is still saved, why not finish it haha

I just beat a save file I had for this from 2004 that I’d been revisiting every once in a while. Needless to say, it never fully gripped me. It was supposed to be my first ever FF game since I only had GameCube at that point. It’s beautiful, and the music is memorable to this day, but it’s hard to recommend. Playing it solo didn’t exactly help either.

Is this what the kids these days call a MOBA? Either way, not my thing but I’m sure someone out there is hyped

I’d rather see them port Need for Speed Heat. Hot Pursuit is ancient.

20 years... I have the quarantine beard to show for it

I remember losing my level 100 Pikachu to the ether when my link cable tragically disconnected mid-transfer. So no more travel companion. At least the rest of my team is still preserved on a copy of Stadium 2.

@Anguspuss that was the best part haha

Bomber Crew was one of my favorites on Switch. I’ll probably pick this up too

I’m all about it!

I have a GameCube save file from 2004 I’m still working on. Hoping to finish it soon. Maybe I can start this version and have it done before 2030

I’d love to see Art Academy on Switch, but I’m worried they just won’t do it

This needs Crokinole

I wish they’d add Crokinole

I sent the news tip on this video yesterday.

@raven89 I mean if you want to be exposing your kids to hate symbols without any context or explanation, be my guest. Any 11 year old kid who sees something holding a gun or a chainsaw is just gonna think ‘cool’, without knowing what the symbol means. I know I did when I was that age. No one is trying to ruin your fun or censor anything here. Ive been playing the new Wolfenstein pretty regularly. I kindly asked it to be taken down or given greater consideration for future posts. That’s it. Also, there are actual people still alive who were impacted by the actions of the Nazi party, I know some myself. They may not be totally cool with seeing the group that ruined their life passed off as a cartoon so publicly. This kind of content should either be properly contextualized or locked behind an age restriction, not showing up next to a frickin article about Super Mario. It’s just decency. Is that really so hard to understand? If you were offended by some painful or complicated content, I sincerely wish other people would take it seriously and think twice before showing it.

@raven89 is it a bunch of SJWs? Seriously dude, just cause someone expresses a preference to have some imagery moderated doesn’t mean the need to be blocked off in some liberal part of the Internet. I can’t even put a curse word on this site without it being edited, I don’t see any harm in pointing out a pic that probably should be removed. This is basically a kids site.

@raven89 There’s not too many of anyone on this site. Anyone who wants to post here can. I’ve never even visited resetera.

@EVIL-C I’m not sure anyone is actually asking for sympathy here, just common sense and decency, especially on a site with a younger readership. Nothing wrong with showing or talking about Nazis, just ought to be contextualized properly.

@raven89 I definitely am that annoying.

Hey Nintendolife, not a huge mess up, but wondering if in the future you can choose different art to show for this game. Having a Swastika show up next to Mario is just a little weird tbh. I understand that it’s part of the game, but not sure all readers are going to know the history behind this outside of being something that shows up in video games. Cheers otherwise and keep up the good work.

Heist is in my top 10 games of all time. It is phenomenal.

Yawn 🥱. They could have at least added another stock Mario or DK character just to keep things interesting.

I like how plain it is

The European box art really expresses the aspirational quality of the game. When you see it, you think ‘These monkeys are ready to risk everything to live life to its fullest’.

The fact that Niantic is selling off people’s location and behavior information makes this actually a little gross tbh. I’d love to be fully excited about this, but I find I hard to knowing that now tech companies are using our attachment to Pokémon to keep us in their ecosystems, literally from when we’re a child to when we die. When I played Pokémon it was alone on a game boy or with friends without adults and corporations monitoring us. Kids today deserve that same freedom.

Nice! I actually have it on my Christmas list so if I don’t get it I’ll grab it on the last day of the sale on the 25th.

Could we get some more sources for this? There’s a lot of misinformation going around from both sides about this game right now. Reporting on a reddit thread doesn’t exactly help the situation.

How is this only getting reviewed now? I literally just bought it yesterday for an upcoming game night with friends. I think it’s been out a few weeks. Glad to see it being hi-lighted though.

@Digitamamon64 It’s probably best that you’re stepping away then. Nobody likes to feel like they are being lied to. That being said, not everyone feels the same way. For myself, this checks all the boxes and I got it day one. Hopefully next generation improvements can be made to get fans like you back, but even if they don’t, it doesn’t diminish the passion you already put into the series.

@Glitchling78 it’s hard to put yourself in the shoes of the people who are being so upset about this. When Crystal and Emerald came out I remember just not getting them cause they felt really samey, and then I didn’t even finish Leaf Green... I just moved on with my life. Some people have legit complaints if they’ve been following the series this long but there are also just people acting in bad faith just to create drama, it’s hard to tell the difference.

@Glitchling78 this is definitely sincere. The answer to every question in that regard for the last few years is the same. People are actually this insane.

@Snaplocket @graysoncharles Welcome to 2019 dude.

These people can’t be taken seriously anymore. Assets get reused, big deal. You could tell from the first trailer. Just don’t buy it... that’s how the free market works, if you actually believe in such a thing.

@SlyPlayr09 that’s not the point and won’t be the result of these tariffs tbh. Not saying I’m against them, they just may only mean paying more taxes to the government, not a move in production, change in quality or change in the supply chain or labor that’s used. It’s worth keeping in mind.

@GravyThief I kinda had the same experience in that I only recently got X on Wii U virtual console and really like it. That being said I still prefer GX. I was able to get pretty good at it but still haven’t finished the story. I remember the first track I got good at, Aeropolis. The wide turns were a good place to really learn the game. I’d recommend going back to GX. I was never great at it, but getting good st it was one of my most satisfying experiences with a game.
