I can't think of anything more boring and pointless than playing a video game on "easy." Stop playing so many video games and do some other things in your life if you run out of the Mario and Yoshi easy-type of games.

@Wavey84 Agree, NA hands down. NA Mega Man 2 cover is an all-timer of bodacious proportions. I am immediately taken back to summer of 1989 and the 15" CRT TV that I used to play it on.

I haven't signed on to Nintendolife in a long time but I just had to let everyone know that I preordered this. Thank you and goodnight.

@rjejr: And you and I will call it the Switch Mini!

@Gamer83: Man, I have been tired of virtue signaling since it even became a thing. The people that virtue signal appear to be covering for something.

Oh and LOL at a review for Bayonetta in 2018. Is Nintendo going to bring out this game every generation?

Is Nintendolife on Nintendo's payroll now?

@rjejr: So you have a Switch? Maybe someday I will get one but there are way to many PS4 games. Plus I think the accessories are overpriced and don't like how much you have to download Anyway, I thought the original was better than the Bayo 2 as well and I played both on normal.

@ogo79: Mother 3 is trash

@bezerker99: Is that the Mega Man amiibo I helped you find or was it Sonic?

@WaveBoy: Did you get a Switch? I'll snatch all this Mega Man on PS4.

Just buy a SNES classic and play the original.

@rjejr: Do you have a Switch along with your PS4? If so, how do you have time for all those games?

Again, just buy a real SNES, a flash cart, and HD Retrovision component cables.

Ouch...

The NA SNES is the GOAT! Looking forward to picking mine up today!

We will probably never see a library of classics like that again. What an era.

Can't decide whether Super Metroid or A Link to the Past is the GOAT.

However, the Super Metroid cover is fascinating. It makes no sense when you look at it for more than second.

Don't bother

Just buy an original SNES and a HD Retrovision SNES YPbPr Component Cable.

I will continue to use my flash carts

@Hen1roc Don't hate the player bro, hate the game. Nintendo fans got to celebrate every little thing when they can!

Switch owners are thirsty for any type of content for their overpriced system.

Hopefully I can grab Nes Classic this time. Oh, and ship it with two controllers with longer cables this time and with the added SNES features.

No magazine will ever compare to the Nintendo Power of the early to mid 90's though with that said I would still take a copy of this issue.

@WaveBoy So do you have a Switch? I don’t and not really planning on getting one though Metroid Prime 4 would have me pretty tempted. I want to play Samus Returns too so I will need to find a 3DS just for that game. Yeah, Mario Odyssey does not excite me. Nothing else can truly captures the magic of video games like 8 & 16 bit. Heck, I even have a pinball machine in my basement that is more magical then todays stuff. With that being said, I still like some modern games and use my PS4. PS4 games go down in price regularly so I get games pretty cheap unlike with Nintendo.

The whole Switch situation is sick to me; the price and availability of the unit, the price of the accessories, no D-pad except on the $70 Switch “pro” controller, amiibo crap, memory situation, etc… are all a big turnoff for me.

I got a SNES classic preordered (yeh Star Fox 2!) but that is the last Nintendo will see of my money for awhile at least. Right now I am rocking an AVS with an Everdrive Flash cart for NES games, my SNES with HD Retrovision YPbPr component cables and a SD2SNES flash cart, PS4, and soon to be SNES classic (had to have it since it’s my favorite console ever and some of the greatest games of all time). That is more than enough for now. I will just continue to buy an occasional inexpensive PS4 game. Video game expenditures need to slow down for me.

Anywho, I hope you do get to start a family some day. It’s more rewarding than beating Ninja Gaiden III (NES)! As for me moving across the country and taking a pay cut to live on 40 acres in the country instead of a neighborhood has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. A virtual world of video games is fun to visit, but doesn’t compare to the real world.

It is nice having a PS4 and not worrying about missing out on games.

@nuke13: Yeah, for as much flak as Gamestop gets, their in-store preorder, 1 per household, was the only way I could get one.

Preordred 1 in-store at Gamestop. Feels good man.

@JaxonH: Because I think it is funny to buy the same game twice or more. I don't replay games after I am finished with them because I don't play video games all day, every day.

Nintendo fans love buying the same games again and again!

@WaveBoy @Tasuki: I've missed this place. I just wish Capcom would release 1 MEGA collection for my shiny Gold PS4.

The best console (including the looks) ever made.

Obviously, the people that visit Nintendolife are not the target audience of this product.

@ThomasBW84 It is up for preorder! Just ordered one.

I agree with @Shugo. order Pat the NES Punk's book Ultimate Nintendo: Guide to the NES Library before this or the kickstarter one.

Meh, guess I am one of the few not that impressed.

Yamauchi originally bought the team to save the team and to keep it in Seattle (unlike Howard Schultz and the Sonics). His intention was always to sell it back to local ownership.

Oh and good riddance Howard Lincoln! You should have stayed with Nintendo, you were much more successful there.

@Spoony_Tech: Wrong, though they have never won a World Series they had a few good seasons plus MLB record tying 116 win season in 2001.

Silly @rjejr, who would buy Prime just to get 20% off of video games? Oh and don't buy a PS4 anytime soon, might as well wait for the PS4K.

"The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD gives a second chance to one of the most talked about and debated entries in the series to date. "

Seems like that could be used in a review for any Zelda game remaster.

Anyway, never got around to this on the Wii so looking forward to playing this for the first time, with the "definitive version."

What doesn't Nintendolife not give a 9 to anymore? "Criterion Collection" my left foot. Glad I have the 6 original carts and a NES to play them.

@Totaldude911: Hello from the future!

A Link to the Past definitely, my favorite game of all time!

Incredible week for Wii U VC. I will definitely pick up NG 2 & 3 and DD III!

@rjejr: Oh man, I miss you. Glad to see you still think of me whenever you see a Wii Mini though. Yeah, I will be in no hurry to get a "NX" either. The $$$ just don't make any sense (or cents) compared to owning a PC/PS4/XB1when it comes to the value for your money. The so-called Nintendo "sales" are just pathetic. I will keep it an eye on the "NX" though if nothing else, they are a very interesting company to observe..

@rjejr: I am more O.K. with paying $50-$60 for a "Remake" like upcoming FFVII (1, 2, 3) than a "Remaster." At least for a Remake the assets are built from the ground up. Honestly though I'm not the biggest FFVII fan, I played it recently and made it through Midgar then was like OK, time for something else (it was the first PSX game I bought as a teenage). I may go back to it someday though before for the Remake comes out.

It's interesting how quickly Sony and Microsoft games go down in price compared to Nintendo's (which hardly do if at all).

@rjejr: Oh man, I have missed this place! It doesn't seem like much has changed.

This will be my my first Wii U game in awhile. I never played T.P. and glad it has finally been cleaned up. I agree that HD remasters should not be sold for $50-$60 though (at least I am getting 20% off with Prime). I got GoW Remake for $15.00 last year and it included 4 free previous generation games. Nintendo man, to expensive.

No thanks on "Virtual Reality." My "Real Reality" is quite wonderful. The march toward transhumanism cannot come soon enough for some people.

I will pick up Sin & Punishment.

Well, the new copy of Bayo 1+2 didn't last more than a minute on GS so I picked up a used copy before those sold out. Glad to finally get a physical copy of this.
