I already had all of those, well except from Gen VIII obviously, when they got distributed in the past. The Gen VIII one is the only I care about therefore.

Placed my preorder for the physical version. It wasn't very expensive either, which I liked.

Can't say that I've ever fallen out of bounds in Sunshine, on GC or Switch. But some of the oddities like getting stuck on the edge of a platform and stuff, yeah, that happens. The Pachinko level is one of my least favourites in the game, it just "feels" wrong. That and the lilypad red coin thingie where you need Yoshi to ride on boats just to reach it. Those are the stuff that nightmares are made of.

Meanwhile however, I got a glitch in SM64 I had never seen before where in Tick Tock clock Mario died from seemingly just touching the air. https://www.twitch.tv/rudycthree/clip/SpunkyInterestingTroutOSfrog

@Tonyo It was Thlevel. They're just chinese knockoffs that looks EXACTLY the same as the originals, that I got on amazon (labelled Thlevel Analog Joystick Tringle). They come with rubber things that attach on top for more grip but I didn't use them. Since I wanted my sticks replaced (once the right one started drifting as well) and i would have to take them apart for that I also got clear replacement shells with SNES PAL style coloured buttons, so I changed all of that at the same time.

I gotta say ever since I changed my JoyCon sticks myself for third party ones, knock on wood but they've been drift free.

I still whistle Promised Grace (Veo Lu Sluice) when I'm by myself, to this day. The Tango remix that was made for FFCC: The Crystal Bearers is also stellar.

With the third party Nintendo Direct Mini happening tomorrow, there's a good chance this is true.

No Space Megaforce? Awww :/

Odyssey is for me the best one by far, and that's coming from someone who's played them all as they were coming out on their respective systems. It does nothing wrong imho and brought 3D Mario games where I wanted them to go, at long last.

@Switcheroot Leclerc don't ship to Belgium though. In fact most places that have the game won't ship outside of their own country. I tried GAME UK this afternoon and they won't now for some reason. I ordered from them in the past, and never had this problem before.

That's all right, I found someplace that do ship to me, though the price of 60€ is ouchie. I'd never order from Amazon FR with that price of 70€ though, that's just ridiculous.

Amazon UK won't ship to my country. Amazon DE won't ship to my country either. Amazon FR don't even have the game up for preorder. Some of us will be *****, thanks a lot Nintendo!

In my own experience, no fighting game is pleasant to play online, rollback netcode or not. It's just not the same and you can instantly feel that something is very wrong as opposed to local 1v1 gameplay. I could never get into any of them online, not street fighter, not Mortal Kombat.

I have yet to meet a single shiny Pokémon in sword and Shield, I don't know what this is about.

As someone who was lucky enough to have experienced it as a four player party, there was a unique charm to each player having their own screen to look at on their GBA and having valuable info down there to help the rest of the team. I don't think it was ever a stellar game anyway, but it offered a way for four friends to play together that no other game offered. When you COULD get enough people and all the hardware necessary to play it in one location, it was a lot of fun.

But without this element of uniqueness though, and with couch coop and direct communication off the books, there really was no reason to bring this back. I'd take the original any day.

A Switch Pro is a terrible idea. What they need is a new model altogether. The new consoles are launching with RDNA2 tech in them. The Switch being powered by NVidia should have a new model coming out with an Ampere based SoC. Doesn't need to be as powerful, just to be "up-to-date" in terms of hardware supported features like RTX, or DLSS2 for example.

Just a more souped up version of the existing unit would mean that all games would still have to be compatible with the older model, which would be way too limiting.

I was playing it daily on Switch, on a realm, until about February of this year and never had any crashes, that's weird. The performance can be slower than on other platforms in busy spots of the game world, but that's expected.

I haven't played it on switch since then though, so don't know how the game is on there right now.

If they're going to allow it for this, they should also allow it wherever it makes sense, for any FPS game with roots on the PC for example. Why be open for a more minor game but not on things like, idk, Minecraft for example?

Give us Xexex please! And the arcade versions of the Parodius games!

I "know" the original but have never played it since I was never a PC gamer. PC never seemed like a good platform for, well... "platform" games, as most ran like sh** in those days, though commander keen was one of the few that actually ran decently on hardware that was designed with scrolling visuals in mind.

Just name it GoldenEar or something, remove all James Bond naming, and release it anyway. Everyone would know what it truly is but no copyright would be infringed.

EDIT: I guess music would have to be changed then though, that would not be quite as cool.

For me I'd say any late gen year is usually a bad one, as you wait for the next system to release and there's barely any new releases. Like for example the end of N64 in 2001 (up until Gamecube released, at least in North America). But for me 2011 is the worst. 3Ds just released but there was barely anything worth playing on it all year. Then on Wii, only Europe got two games worth playing which North America didn't even get till later: Xenoblade, The Last story and that's it really. Great games for sure but all told, that's about all there was, all year round, and North America wouldn't get these until the year after. That year was a big desert for me.

12/15, the games I got wrong are the more recent ones actually, but then again I was never into Nintendogs or Brain Training. Super Mario 3D Land I should have gotten right though. For some reason I thought it didn't come out the same year as the console.

Disappointed that over half of teh thing was to announce updates to existing games. But over the moon with the first true peek at SMTV and the surprise announcement of SMTIII Nocturne HD coming to Switch. Will defo get both, massive fan of SMTIV and SMTIV Apocalypse here.

I never see this mentioned anywhere but now that I've completed it 100% on Switch, I did run into some technical issues playing it from the cartridge: the audio goes crazy when there's too much happening at the same time, too many audio sources like the soundtrack and all the sfx playing at the same time. This was most apparent in the later marked man challenges the audio would sound like it couldn't play everything at the same time (the sound starts stuttering like a sound file that buffers but where the buffer can't fill fast enough or something, but without affecting the actual game's performance, it's just the audio that's affected). could we have a fix please?

1° Rejoice at the news
2° Sees it's a Limited Run exclusive
3° Cries in his European corner of the world

To anyone with a short memory, we got the Romancing Saga trilogy before this. It only makes sense that they keep translating these and putting them out as long as they make enough money off of them.

@tourjeff I found it at that price at shop4be.com . They're based in the UK and specialise in selling to my country, Belgium. I don't know if they ship to other countries as a result, but maybe they do?

@sword_9mm I ordered my physical copy of this and paid only €43.99 with free shipping (instead of €49.99 on the eShop) so I don't know about a Nintendo Switch tax issue but I'd say the eShop price is very wrong if it's cheaper to buy the game physical and have something tangible to hold in addition to the software itself.

I read the title and thought to myself "These things still exist in 2020?" but then realised it was a fan creation. It's pretty cool though!

If this was more like DK94 on Game Boy, I'd be all for it!

8/10. never heard of the guy who made the design of the NA SNES, since I'm in Europe.

Not for me, customs taxes + shipping from the US nearly doubling the price of the game for us Europeans are already a big deterrent, but paying upfront and only getting what you paid for six months later is another one. Then region locking is the nail in the coffin. I'll pass.

@RogerFederer Nah we watched the French version on FR3 (I think it was FR3 anyway)

I wish the Switch had a fun, unrealistic golf game that can be played online. I loved Pangya/Albatross18 back in the day on PC. Mario Golf would be nice but the online isn't nearly as fun in there cause you can't chat with the random people you play with or against. I really miss that type of game :/.

@RogerFederer We watched Hugo in Belgium too, I remember it well / On regardait Hugo Délire en Belgique aussi, je m'en souviens très bien.

The music of the first two games is still in my memory to this day. I never owned them personally but it seems a lot of people did. In this case, it was my cousin. i guess they were nothing exceptional but to young me, not having access to a lot of cartridges, they felt like decent puzzle platformers. They got me thinking, and I felt smart when I got past another level (I was like... 7 or 8 years old, so don't judge).

(oh yeah forgot about Dead Space, it's true that they own that too)

Yeah, see EA, we've been lied to so often that it's hard to expect anything from you. I appreciate Burnout Remastered, and I'll be there day 1 cause it's one of my favourites and THE title I wanted on Switch from you.

Now, of the rest, Mass Effect Trilogy may be long overdue, but I'd be down for it since I only ever owned Mass Effect 3 on Wii U but was told NOT to start there but to play the others first. So would love to get a chance to play all three back to back, the way they were meant to be played. Of all your licenses EA, Mass Effect is the one I want to see on Switch the most, and all three in one package please, I'd pay extra for the full package on a 32GB cart if need be, the way Witcher 3 got released. Please don't mess that up.

I imagine this being ported to PC means that more could be done with the engine through mods. SM64 mods prior to this were limited in scope to what the N64 was capable of (in terms of complexity of geometry, world-size, texture quality, render-distance, etc). So now we may have more SM64 mods but which tackle a PC's horse-power instead to create something more appealing than any mod that has come before.

I'm more impressed by the prospects that this opens than the port itself (cause you could already run SM64 emulated at 4K or any resolution you like, really, this is nothing new, but here it runs natively and therefore demands less CPU resources to get there).

surprised the tweets include Arc Rise Fantasia. I thought I was the only one who ever cared about that game.

@AlexanderDaniels It's still a very weird and uninteresting game to boot. Why pick a game that has achieved this legendary status of being horrendous, to the point that people play it for that specific reason, only to make it slightly better to the point that its main attraction, its laughable suckiness, would be gone?

For info on this game in English, you may want to look up the name "Star Gazers" instead. It's the title given to it by the group of "fans" that translated it.

I've posted the same kind of comment elsewhere, but this was a BAD game even back in the day. Like, REALLY bad, it has that reputation in Japan, having achieved the status of "***** game of legends". It's slow, didn't look good even by the standards of the day, clunky, you can't run away from fights despite the fact that you can randomly run into enemies way stronger than you early on, due to lack of directions, you can get petrified and then have to painfully wait to die for like 10 minutes, your laser gun deals LESS damage than you bare fists... sigh. It's bad. Really bad.

F-Zero is the one I want most, and then Wave Race. I loved 1080° Avalanche on Gamecube so if they made another one, I'd want it to play and feel like that one, more so than the N64 game which i had a much harder time getting into. Excitebike I just don't feel the same nostalgia for, sorry. I did enjoy Excite Truck and Excitebots on Wii though! I loved that Excite Truck let you play your own mp3 music from the SD card in the system.

Look at all the controversies GTA has spurned over the years and it's still one of the best selling franchises of all time. The latest game is several years old and still tops the charts regularly. No worries to be had for Animal Crossing, it will keep selling even after those articles.

Like others, I got used to it eventually. You don't think about it anymore after a while, but then it's when you go back to play any other game on Switch that you have to revert to how you're used to play. I'd rather get the other Dark Souls games on Switch really XD.

For those wondering about price, the page in the article literally lists the price in Polish Zloty, 199. That roughly 44€ at today's current exchange rate so yeah, the price of a full new release, which is to say the price the remastered costed n other platforms the day it came out on those. Yes, it is now much cheaper on other platforms, but it wasn't so out of the gate. Wait long enough and the price will go down on Switch as well. D'huh!

@Low Nintendo's own page lists both a physical and digital release in Europe. It says "Nintendo Switch card" in the details section: https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-Switch/Burnout-Paradise-Remastered-1748605.html#gameDetails

Had this game for ages. I considered playing it a couple months ago then as usual I played something else instead. I really have to make an effort and give it a chance.

I never knew Charles Martinet's voice was in it though.

Would have preferred Strike the Earth but that one's good too.
