Why are people surprised about this? There's clearly something gone wrong behind the scenes between EA and Nintendo, otherwise EA wouldn't be cutting Switch out like this.
They were shady as hell with the Dreamcast too.
I'm glad EA are not supporting Switch. It ends the argument of a console needing EA support to be successful. The less EA stink on Switch, the better
I still think this is the best Zelda. It was definitely a stronger title than Ocarina of Time. I actually loved it so much I got Skull Kid wearing Majoras Mask inked on my arm
I wanted to buy this, and the sequel, on PS4, but I boycott anything with EA on the label. Since Dragon Age 2 I have bought one EA game, and that was Anthem. Only because amazon were selling it for a fiver, so the fact it was horrible didn't bother me much.
I do wish the developers of Unravel well tho, there's just no EA stink in my Switch/PS4 libraries
The game doesn't feel rushed. It's not full of bugs, it works, has a decent framerate that doesn't get in the way of the action. I welcome the updated soundtrack to give it a listen but playing thru the game with the original isn't a bad thing going on how amazing it is.
@Bloodmetal yeah Sega Lord X is pretty good at reviews. His was fairer than Chris' review.
@electrolite77 Sega Rally on Saturn is still amazing to this day. Much better than the sequel on Dreamcast. You're right a lot of those early games haven't aged well but some of them, like Sega Rally, have managed to age well
@Pharmboy6 I don't understand the claw point either.
I bought it yesterday as soon as it just stealth dropped alongside that direct. I think it's great, the music is probably the greatest game soundtrack ever, and the level 4 boss is as big a pain as it was in the Saturn. There were rumours that they only had a small budget to work with but its clear they had a lot of love for the original game.
However, I'm not sold on the aiming. On the Saturn I found it worked well, but on this the tinny analogue sticks of the Switch make it a bit difficult. If it was on Xbox One with its superior sticks, it would probably feel a lot better.
My copy was dispatched yesterday by Nintendo, so hopefully Royal Mail will deliver it tomorrow.
Kinda sucks for affected people but these are desperate times, and other things take priority. Even Final Fantasy VII looks like its getting stock delays.
I dread to think how many hours I am about to sink into this. It has looked amazing each time they show it, it's hitting great scores, and looks like the delay was a good thing
I'm surprised R* haven't remastered the PS2 GTA games. You could have 5 games Gta 3 Vice City San Andreas Liberty City Stories Vice City Stories
Would be good to have them remastered for Switch. Might fill a gap while we wait for Gta 6, which going on the sales of Gta 5, won't be anytime soon. Its crazy to think Gta 5 is actually a last gen game
Hopefully by then the peak will have passed and it will be coming down. But at the moment it's anyone's guess. I can see this being cancelled too, alongside the Olympics.

Re: Burnout Paradise Remastered Speeds Onto Switch This June, But It's Pretty Pricey
Wouldn't be EA without ripping people off. I'd rather this EA stink didn't permeate the Switch tbh

Re: Piko Interactive Secures The Rights To ODT: Escape Or Die Trying's Scrapped N64 Version
I remember this on PlayStation. I didn't really enjoy it. Would be interesting to see how it's held up however (I'm guessing not very well).
Re: Japanese Charts: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Looks Unstoppable With Mighty Second Week On Sale
@outsider83 more likely China is starting to get back to normal so the factories are starting to go back to full production
Re: Japanese Charts: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Looks Unstoppable With Mighty Second Week On Sale
It's amazing, and fully deserved. Nintendo knocked it for 6 with this one
Re: Nintendo To Remaster 'Most Of Super Mario’s 35-Year Catalogue' For Switch in 2020, New Report Says
Must really get developers down to see someone leak this information all over the Internet.
Re: UK Charts: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Sales Fall By 81% In Disappointing Week For Nintendo
Well it's 1st week sales were very high, so dropping to 3rd isn't bad. Especially when there are Switch shortages as you mentioned.

Re: EB Canada Reminds Us To Set Aside 24 GB For The XCOM 2: Collection On Switch
A bit of a mickey take all this. It the Witcher 3 can fit on a cartridge, with a dlc included, other games like this (and Spyro) surely can
Re: Review: Panzer Dragoon: Remake - Doesn’t Quite Nail The Landing
@JayJ I'm sure I remember Star Fox 64 3D have people say it's too short 🤔
Either way, it's an on rails shooter, and a remake of a Sega Saturn game from 1995, when games weren't very long. What were people expecting?
Re: Pre-Orders For Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition Collector's Set Go Live At Nintendo UK Store
Got the collectors edition. Don't have a record player tho, would be better if it wasn't a record
Re: Review: Panzer Dragoon: Remake - Doesn’t Quite Nail The Landing
@Gs69 I don't have one lol I really need to get one the joycon sticks aren't really very good at precision aiming

Re: Nintendo Reiterates Plans For Animal Crossing: New Horizons Save Data Workarounds
It's the same thing with Pokemon Sword/Shield and Splatoon 2. Nintendo seem intent on stopping cheating but don't realise people will cheat anyway 🙄
Edit: Daemon X Machina has the same bonkers restriction.
Re: Random: Real Football Teams Are Using FIFA To Play Matches Postponed By Coronavirus
Leeds United being top with 9 games to go and facing the season being declared null and void probably had to be the most Leeds United thing ever.
And I'm a Leeds fan 😔
