Not a bad list, but not great, either. I honestly feel like the decade before this one was better for games - with 6th gen beasts like: https://youtu.be/I9nxBJBEdzo
I love the caption on this story! The service update we've needed to VC/Online for years has been a few of these bad boys: https://youtu.be/I9nxBJBEdzo
This is legit awesome. I was just thinking about a "Super Mario Bros. The Movie: The Game" game haha Takes me back to simpler times, like the war between the PS2, Xbox and GCN - https://youtu.be/t4JK6d2j4GA
At that price, I'd pair S-video cables with one of these instead - https://youtu.be/L9fNL-FGbkk It is essentially the same solution, with 240p pass through as an option, and support for many more consoles via expanded support for Composite and YPbPr.
I might check this out for a review. I'm a little confused as to how this is any different than something like a RetroTINK 2X with S-video cable. That combo costs around $30 less, has more modes and features, and supports a wide range of consoles.
If EON was boasting an algorithmic reversal of AA as a "Sharp Mode", in addition to basic line-doubling and a smoothing filter, I would be right on board.
Sad to hear that they're struggling, but glad to hear that they're going back to their roots. Other companies are already taking us back to their glory days - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDPFtY7l57I
Metroid is definitely at the top of my list. The two times Nintendo has left us hanging on Metroid were the Wii U and... https://youtu.be/80DZjfGBnfA At least they teased MP4 ahead of time. Still, I hope it doesn't miss 2019.
Glad to hear it won't be a grindfest to be able to fully enjoy the game. They'll probably use spirits/assists as long term goals for those who love that in a Smash game. For me, I just want Alex or Augustus for DLC https://youtu.be/hOhxqXEjgIg
Honestly, I can buy that right now. The Switch and the other consoles aren't exactly comparable devices. Both play games, but that's about the extent of it. Time is the biggest thing ANY platform has to fight for with me. I have a hard time tearing myself away from retro games to play newer stuff. This contributes to that ;P https://youtu.be/L9fNL-FGbkk
This looks like a dream come true but, man, am I ready to stop waiting on this game! I love the aesthetic and style, and this feature puts it over the top.
If anyone is interested, "Ambition of the Slimes" is a great retro-inspired strategy RPG already on the eShop. And... if you're really into the retro scene, you should check out my new review of the Retron 77 HD Atari clone.
F-Zero always had awesome music. I Had a friend do an F-Zero inspired track for a retro review of the first game I did recently. https://youtu.be/JGuYwGpI0kA
I'm actually planning to just get the Wii U version at the time of Switch release. I never got it for the U, it's cheaper, and I'm tiring of the full-priced ports.
I'm glad this is finally getting released. If they's released it a month from now, it would totally get swallowed up by all the summer titles. Also guys, my new video is up: https://youtu.be/YcocHCVY0qo Feedback is appreciated
