@Desrever meh they were shoved down our throats in the mid-8-s to early 2000's alongside Spider-Man. I really don't mind seeing them taking a backseat to lesser used characters.
@HamatoYoshi yeah no, that reasoning was fine then, but in 2021 where you can get quality products for less than it, there's no reason for this game to be the price it is.
Always confused me when people defend the lack of minorities in japanese games by claiming there aren't many blacks/hispanics there. As far as I know there aren't many whites there, but the vast majority of Japanese created characters are very caucasian in appearance with blond hair and blue eyes. Even the japanese characters.
Honestly glad Nintendo is using a wider demographic in their Switch ads with more adults, vs almost exclusively young kids sometimes with their parents before.
@ArmenianJedi13 How would a graphic and performance upgrade be dissapointing? That's the whole point of a "Pro" model. Nintendo did the most basic laziest thing they could here.
@tntswitchfan68 I mean atleast Sony understands the concept of sales and is willing to regularly lower the price for first party games. Not everyone has the fund to spend full price on a game.
@AlienX Nah keep that cliché dramatic tripe out of Sonic. I'd rather have a humorous light-hearted story like in Unleashed vs the Adventure Era Fanfic level trash we got.
So far Sega's doing a much better with Sonic's anniversary than Nintendo did with Mario's. Colors Ultimate and the Origins collection are actually going to have new content according to the press release.
@link3710 they flatout stated Crash 4 is still being supported by TFB probably on the rumored add-on, so it safe to say that they have teams working on non COD stuff.
Am I missing something? Really not getting the hype behind this, especially when these games are readily available on older platforms. These look near identical to the og games but shinied up and with minimal new additions, likely being sold for sixty bucks. Was hoping for a real remake but instead we get more ports. Yay?
Gotta say I've been enjoying this much more than whatever Mehrio Kart games that were on the Wii and Wii U. So much more personalities to the characters and the music curbstomps most competitors. Hoping Crash Team Racing is just as good.
@River3636 It plays pretty differently from 64, so idk where you got that idea. Plus it’s still a lot of fun to play all the way through, unlike Mario 64 which aged like hot garbage.

Re: Rumour: Warner Working On A Smash Bros. Imitator With Batman, Gandalf And, Er, Shaggy
Honestly the crossover potential here is far more intriguing to me than smash bros tbh.
Re: Reminder: Sora And Version 13.0.0 Arrive In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Today
Lol this roster is far from the greatest. It's very clear there was a bias towards Japanese anime style characters.

Re: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania Will Have Hello Kitty Paid DLC
@Bunkerneath You do know DLC isn't the same as MTX right?
Re: Review: Sonic Colors Ultimate - The Best 3D Sonic Game Gets A Respectable Remaster
Funny how one of the cons is the 2d gameplay, which makes up most of the gameplay, yet the game still gets an 8.
Re: Review: Sonic Colors Ultimate - The Best 3D Sonic Game Gets A Respectable Remaster
@Raffles You mean the games with pretentious out of character stories, awful alt gameplay styles and hardly an Sonic levels?
Re: Among Us Devs Speak Out About Fortnite's Suspiciously Familiar 'Impostors' Mode
@gojiguy Theyre indie devs. Its unlikely they are millionaires, esp when among us is easy to play for free. And y'know most game devs aren't anyway.

@sixrings nope, shoes are the first thing to go off when i get home. It's just more comfortable.

@michellelynn0976 how was Ratchet and Clank in anyway a bad game?
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Switch OLED Model Looks Lovely, But May Also Disappoint
@JasmineDragon Here come the Nintendrones that feel they have to defend another garbage decision by a multimillion dollar company.

Re: Talking Point: Why Metroid Dread Will Be Worth $60
@nessisonett atleast Sony puts their games on sale more often, even current gen PS5 games like Spider-Man.
Re: Talking Point: Why Metroid Dread Will Be Worth $60
Acitivision DOES do sales on it's games quite often honestly. The Crash games have had a few 50% off sales since theyve been released.

Re: Marsupilami: Hoobadventure Is A Charming Platformer Heading To Switch
Looks like a Crash Bandicoot knock-off. One of the enemies even looks very similar to the monster that chases Crash in Crash 4.
Re: Rumour: It Sounds Like A New Tony Hawk Game Might Be Happening
@link3710 That was deconfirmed, and there have been several hints to additional Crash content from VA's and leakers sooo...
Re: Rumour: Genshin Impact For Switch Reportedly Delayed Due To "Weaker Hardware"
@Zeldafan79 It'll be something stupid like the Switch U.
