This event is being hated all over the world. The game has sold 27 million copies, and 99% of people won't get these shiny Pokémon. Some stores in São Paulo will distribute the codes, but I'm definitely not going to travel more than 100 km to get one. We're no longer in the 90s for this kind of restrictive event to be justified.
@datamonkey I really enjoyed the Resort, I finished it with 100% completion (all missions with a perfect score and I collected all the collectibles). I also had Pilotwings 64, but my N64 controller didn't have a good analog stick (the game requires incredible precision, especially with the analog stick). But the game was great. I plan to try the first game in the series soon on Switch Online.
@Ade117 I've always found this stereotype about the Pilotwings series to be completely unfair. The WarioWare series has always featured games demonstrating new technologies and has never been portrayed as a "glorified tech demo."
@BanjoPickles Exactly. And regarding the Activision/Imagic games, they've been added to Game Pass. It's not ideal (I don't think you can even buy the bundle, access is exclusive to subscribers), but at least it shows that Activision/Microsoft has remembered the games exist. I hope Atari/Digital Eclipse has already contacted them about releasing a dedicated collection of these games.
If the main Pokémon games got 20% of all the advantages that Go gets, that would be wonderful (especially when it comes to legendary and mythical Pokémon). I get really jealous when I see someone with more than 10 Deoxys in their account, for example. I need 3 more of them for my Living Dex, but the last time they appeared in the console games was 11 years ago (and I'm not going to play Omega Ruby 3 times because of 1 Pokémon).
Mario Tennis Open is excellent, my favorite. Technical and perfect gameplay.
Its only flaw was Camelot terrible decision to divide the online mode by country.
After playing Open for over 100 hours, it's hard to describe how disappointed I was with Aces. The gameplay has no depth whatsoever, and the tournament mode was destroyed (they didn't even include themed courts in this mode, it's a joke). The only good thing about it is the character selection, but everything else was terrible.
Good thing I got the Aces for free with Microsoft Rewards points.
Ok, but the game will either have the classic Sega characters and tracks from the previous games or not (AiAi, Alex Kidd, Amigo, Nights, Joe Musashi, some from Golden Axe, etc).
If the game has the Sonic + Sega characters and tracks I'll be interested in it, and I'll just completely ignore these random guest characters.
The game is coming out in 3 months and almost none of this has been announced, so I'm increasingly pessimistic.
Venusaur EX + Exeggutor EX in Tier C? Seriously? It's the best Deck I've built, I got the badges in both events with it. I also built the Charizard EX + Moltres EX and Mewtwo EX Decks, and the Venusaur one is much better than them.
I tested this last night and it didn't work. I opened about 15 boosters, and more ultra rare cards came in the "straight" boosters. *Or maybe luck isn't on my side.
I already have the original version, I'll wait for the DLC price to be announced to see if it will be worth it. I would think it would be better if they made an independent Intellivision collection, with a good number of games and in a separate physical version, just like the one on the Game Cube. Enjoying... Atari had announced that there would be more free updates for the collection. Did they change their mind and decide to turn it into a paid package?
On 3DS: Ridge Racer 3D - I started the last category of Grand Prix mode last night. A very fun and challenging game.
On Switch: Mario Tennis Aces - I'm playing tournament mode, I want to win the three trophies with all the characters. There have been 5 so far, I still have a long way to go.
With the release of Hellblade 2, I hope Microsoft remembers that the Switch version of Hellblade exists, and puts it on sale. I really want to play, but I don't want to pay full price.

No Pole Position?
It was one of the best ports, and one of the most popular 2600 games here in Brazil.

Re: The House Of The Dead 2: Remake Reloads For August Release On Switch
I wish Microids would release a physical version with both games. They usually release compilations frequently.
Re: Every Nintendo Switch 2 Game-Key Card Release
Apparently this list will be incalculable.
It will be simpler to create a list with the games that will not be a key-card.
Re: Community: What Questions About Switch 2 Do You Still Have For Nintendo?
I have Breath of the Wild on cartridge, but I don't have the DLC.
If I upgrade to the Switch 2 Edition, will I get the DLC?

Re: Listen Up, Mii Are Officially Back And They Now Have Ears
@HammerGalladeBro Interestingly, you can import your 3DS Mii to your Nintendo Account, but there is no option for you to use it on the Switch ...

Come on, Nintendo/Konami, take advantage of the timing, add ISS Deluxe to the NSO and no one will remember Super Soccer departure.
Re: Nintendo's MAR10 Day eShop Sale Welcomes A Handful Of Sweet Savings (North America)

I would think it would be better if they made an independent Intellivision collection, with a good number of games and in a separate physical version, just like the one on the Game Cube.
Enjoying... Atari had announced that there would be more free updates for the collection. Did they change their mind and decide to turn it into a paid package?

Re: Sea Of Thieves Could Lead To More Xbox Exclusives On Other Platforms
