@Serpenterror I mean, it's pretty neat that you can play it 2 player.

Animal Well should be on this list. Platforming and puzzling perfection. Seriously, do NOT let it slip past your radar.

I am of the "80s vintage" and was struck by how Animal Well recaptured the aesthetic and enjoyable exploration -it made me feel like a kid again- yet wrapped it up in tight modern gameplay.

@Teksetter 100% agree on the box art! The book, Art of Atari by Tim Lapetino, showcases and explores this. I would highly recommend it and its poster book companion.

Love the music and overall vibe in the trailer. Making me nostalgic for Beyond Good and Evil.

The IKEA assembly instructions gag is pretty hilarious. I will definitely be checking this out.

@BionicDodo I completely agree. Well said!

This game is great to play with my kids. I honestly look forward to playing it with them whenever I get the chance.

I'm digging the art style, actually. I'll keep my eye on it and wait for the reviews.

@RupeeClock Out of curiosity, where would one find frames of this particular pokemon? His method seems pretty resourceful, but if you know where better frame references would be I would genuinely like to know.

@Key19 oof. I'm in the same boat.

Looks pretty neat! I'll be keeping an eye on this.

That's a really neat and creative project! Feels similar to when music artists release their stuff on unique vinyl. Love it!

I've seen so many "roguelite" and "roguelike" games here that I honestly thought this article was about a "pumpkinlike" game at first.

Holy smokes I looooooove the art style and quality of animation. Very unique, IMO.

Actually looks pretty cool! Riding the wolf creature reminds me of the dino riding in the Adventure Island games on the NES. I'll definitely be watching reviews once it launches.

@eatdogs Anyone who promotes Five Iron Frenzy gets my vote! Nice!

Looking forward to check this out. Love the concept. But I gotta say, don't forget about Steam World Heist when mentioning great turn-based strategy on the switch.

Actually looks pretty decent! I like the lighting changes on the characters (most visible at the 1:04 mark).

I love all of these. This exhibit is like candy for my imagination. Every year I get a kick out of it.

Tempting to just 3d print some Famicom shells and make some of my own. Hmmm...

Considering how tiny his sprite is, I initially thought this was going to be a Lemmings-clone somehow.

@Marchop thanks for the advice!

Is there any way to restore the original grey of the SNES? Mine has turned smoker-lung yellow and it isn't due to any smokers in the house.

@Ooyah I hear you! Vinegar does wonders in those situations.

Thank you for writing that first paragraph. My life is now both better AND worse for reading it.

@Darknyht too true. Sometimes limitations force innovation and creativity in really cool ways. I still have fond memories of our c64 (aside from it breaking down often and needing to touch a grounding pad whenever we used it). Skate or Die and a city-destroying monster game come to mind. Flip the disc!

@Darknyht c64!! Hahaha! You're right! Is that why it feels slightly nostalgic playing them?

Brave Little Tailor! I caught it. And I liked it. Thanks.

@diablo2 I have given this a bit more thought since I tried the demo this weekend. Not going to lie, it worked really well even on my rural internet and it was a bit uncanny to see the graphics and speed it ran at. However, seeing the $50+ (Canadian) price point, it caused me pause. I have a small collection of games and enjoy buying and selling aftermarket, this would not cater to either. I would agree with @pitchblack that it would fair better as a rental AND on a cloud-specific platform. But Jeepers, it really showed the potential of cloud gaming and to be totally honest, I would consider a purchase of an Assassin's Creed Odyssey or Vahalla cloud version if it was ever available. I'm not one to have multiple consoles, so that's my weak spot.

Meh. It's the equivalent of any online shooter. Also, there has to be a cost for this type of gaming. If we aren't going to pay for in the hardware then it will cost us somewhere else.

I'm a pretty nostalgic dude, but that 90s fps style just doesn't do it for me any more. To each their own I guess.

Looks really neat! Love games like this. Looks similar to Machinarium, which I enjoyed immensely.

@BionicDodo interesting point about the atmosphere. I wonder if it would be akin to a mature Sierra's Space Quest type game. Minus the pointing and clicking.

@Collette I dunno. Did you check out the trailer? Looks pretty interesting if you ask me.

Not usually a fan of this genre... But that animation is insane. Wow! I may have to investigate some more...

Looks simple and fun! I will definitely be checking this out.
Kind of curious how 6 players works. Hoping my GameCube adapter works with this like it does for Overcooked.

As a potential desk ornament, it's too bad that Mario's eyes are soulless blackholes when not activated.

@Bunkerneath, @CTmatic, @Mountain_Man, thanks for clarifying! If I were to buy this game, I'd be one to sell it after.

@Bunkerneath hold up. Please clarify this, is there a cart at all? Or is it just a download link?

@Rpg-lover totally agree with you. This too is what I had hoped those games in the 80s played as. Montazuma's Revenge comes to mind. Could be wrong though.
Almost as if someone cranked Swords and Sworcery up to 11.

@Deadly curious how that would convert to your hours played however. Not defending the game but I think a 'day' of playing will differ greatly between players.

Does it have a story? An end? Or does 'roguelike' render that moot?
I'm considering this one over XCOM due to the tech issues the latter seems to be having before a patch comes out.

Love the art style! Fresh!

@Lordplops I miss those days too. I would buy Electronic Gaming Monthly every so often. I remember one in 2001 or 2002 that rounded up the worst games of the year. My buddy and I were in tears laughing from the great writing.

Do any regions get a physical cart with this game? Some of the comments here suggest that only Europe is getting a download code in the case.

@patbacknitro18 If you mean Zelda 2 the Adventures of Link, wasn't that in the NES? There is no 'x' button. :/

What a strange premise! I'm definitely titilated.

I loved the original back in the 90s. I don't have a beastly computer so the reboots have been out of my reach until now. I'm really looking forward to playing this!

Just saw this today with my elementary school age son. Had a great time actually. I genuinely had some good laughs from Jon Carrey's performance. I'm assuming his ad-libbed portions were the actual funny bits but, the movie overall was not nearly as bad as I had expected. The characters had clear motivations and the plot made sense, more than I could have asked for in a movie like this.

Played the first world of Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime with two buddies one evening last weekend. Then passed the controller after each death in ApeOut. It was a ton of fun. Highly recommend both of those indie games.

Ive been holding on to my Wii due to Bomberman Blast is freaking awesome with multiplayer. Super Bomberman R has had poor reviews but apparently the updates (and now this discount) have made me interested in it again.
