I've enjoyed their smaller games. Giga Wrecker Alt and Little Town Hero were interesting mechanic wise. But I absolutely loved Harmoknight on the 3DS.

Durability encouraged creativity and strategy in combat. When you started you didn't have the weapons to spare. Eventually you'd have plenty of weapons, but when you came to an enemy camp, you'd want to minimize the deterioration of the good weapons you had collected. If weapons had no durability, you would probably just run in swinging.

Also I said the ability to repair weapons, but if we got other weapons that didn't break, that mimicked the items of the other games (hookshot etc) I would be down for that. I mean I always kept a leaf on me, just because the never broke unless you hit something with it and it had interesting applications.

22/24 I wish Chrono Trigger was on the Switch. I'd even settle for an HD 2D remake.

The Pawmi line was a surprise contender for my favorite Pokemon this generation, so I'm tempted to get that.

@Exerion76 Oh good! That piques my interest in this game. There's a lot of good indie games out there, but I'm tired of Roguelite/likes. I have a busy schedule, so having to redo the game over and over again just doesn't sit well for me in most games. Some games are really good with it though.

Honestly 7-8 seems like a good range for it. I haven't gotten far, but it's been the most fun I've had with a mainline title in a while, so I gave it an 8.

I only had Nintendo Land for the first month or so of the Wii U's life. It was such a good game. The multiplayer games were great, but even the single player games had some replayability. The Donkey Kong level was the best.

After that probably Batman. New Super Mario Bros U was really good too.

Why are the European colors muted? The American box art is much more vibrant.

@Rikster Thanks for this! I had another QR code that I was waiting to get to a computer to actually be able to scan it.

My son and I loved it. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

Honestly as Nintendo's first new IP on phones, I was excited for this game. I even had fun with it for a little while. I just don't like playing phone games, and never commit to them long. If they ever put something out on consoles, I'll definitely check it out.

I hope we get some restocks in America. I would love to get the Pearl and Marina amiibo. I missed them the first time around.

Maybe it's just me, but I was hoping for a time extension on Cohozuna. I don't know if he's given more health in the higher rankings, or the load outs/my team isn't as helpful, but I can never seem to kill him in the higher ranks. We generally get close but run out of time.

It'll probably be released late next April, only to be overshadowed by Zelda that released a few weeks after.

This was the first game I ever bought with my own money, and I bought it based on box art alone. Gotta go NA/EU.

Only modest sales for JoJo? This must be the work of an enemy stand.

10,000 of any Arrow is amazing. Archery is OP in BotW.

I mean it's not like the point of the trailer was to go over the nitty gritty details of the game. It was just presenting broad strokes, and in that regard, it was perfectly fine.

Would side scrollers look as good in the HD-2D style though? Octopath, Triangle Strategy, and Live A Live all had a sense of depth to them.

But I'm all for remakes of old masterpieces though.

The "See You Again" at the end has me hopeful for the sequel.

I can't believe Team Paper folded like that.

I was not prepared for a Rhythm Heaven style of game, but I love it! I'll definitely have to pick this up eventually.

I find it interesting that the European box art is missing the subtitle for Wave Race 64: Kawasaki Jetski.

Honestly most of the Guild games are top notch. I downloaded and played most of them back in the day. Attack of the Friday Monsters is really good though.

@Snatcher I haven't played 3 yet, but I found 2's battle system better than 1. It's honestly just personal preference, but I wouldn't write it off without trying it. And t will warm you, it does take several chapters (chapter 4 I think?) before the battle system unlocks for its full potential. A lot of complaints I've heard about it was from people who didn't make it to that part.

I never get rid of any game, no matter how bad it is. Because one day I might want to come back to it.

Super Mario World. That or Link to the Past.

I personally like the Switch version the best. It gives you a chance to see a majority of the characters in a pretty clean presentation.

I always thought it was liv a laiv until the Direct where I heard someone pronounce it. Now I try to pronounce it laiv alaiv.

I'm not sure the cons in this article are actual cons.

Oh yeah. This game looked really good. I'm hoping it'll be fun.

I honestly don't know if I've seen any of Mike's work, but after completing No More Heroes 3, I would be 100% ok with him directing. That said, I think Gunn would do an amazing job.

I would have probably gone with Ryan Reynolds over Ryan Gosling though.

Ooh I love this game. I hadn't heard of it, until I bought it on the 3DS virtual console. However I don't really want to spend that much to get a physical copy.

I love how Kraid is holding a basket of puppies, referencing the StarBomb song.

Honestly it's not surprising that it costs more than we gamers think. That's the consensus on a lot of things that developers do. Somehow though gamers with no development experience seem to know better than the developers.

North America. But only because they didn't give Kirby the angry eyes.

I loved Metroid Other M. There were some poor story choices, but the gameplay was good. I really do hope we get another game in a similar vein.

Honestly I didn't pick one of these up, because I didn't see the point. But I was glad that it released and those who wanted it got one. If Reggie had gotten his way, I might have the same problem I had with North America not wanting to releasing the non-XL New Nintendo 3DS. (They eventually did, but either in bundles or in very miniscule amounts)

I absolutely love the Sonic Advance series. They're top notch games and have a variety of characters to choose from.

I've bought and played most of these. Even the worst ones were somewhat enjoyable.

I didn't realize Battletoads Double Dragon had an NES release. I've only played it on the SNES.

Eggcellent article. Though picking the best eggs may not be over easy, it's best to look on the sunny side lest we all get scrambled.

Kiteo, his eyes closed why no one has thought of this before.

Love this series. While I think GU are the better games, the first quadrilogy is an amazing experience.

The .hack games are definitely some of my favorite, but that's more so because of nostalgia than anything. I played through both series with a buddy of mine and feel like I might revisit this on the Switch to relive those memories.

It's nice to see EA's little Football Club doing so well.

This is what I was waiting for.

EA Sports Football Club as a name has the same energy to me as Nintendo Switch Sports. I'm not sure if that's a good thing for them, considering the vastly different target audiences.

Mirror is by far the best ability, and a fan favorite. It was the first ability added to Kirby fighters by vote.

I absolutely love Ikushima's style. Watching this has inspired me to try pen on paint.
