@dartmonkey nvm then, turns out I can't read

given how there is no english language option (which was the case with other releases from Live Wire even if you bought them from the japanese eShop) and Live Wire didn't say that it will release worldwide I'm pretty sure it won't release in other regions today or even in the next few weeks nvm, ignore this, I'm barely awake and can't read
weird how there is still no english language option though, which means you'll have to look up the features you can unlock in the store to know what they do

@mlt Adventure Rebirth should be a part of a Rebirth collection, if they put it in a Castlevania collection as a bonus then Contra Rebirth and Gradius Rebirth will have zero chance of a rerelease because they're not going to do another Contra collection and Gradius collection also seems unlikely, rereleasing them separately is also unlikely

@LikelySatan sorry but I'm just annoyed that any websites are giving stuff like this attention, this shouldn't even count as a rumor, this is just someone making s*** up just so people notice them
plus given all the comments Nintendo made about the successor it's pretty obvious that it's going to look similar to Switch 1 so I don't get why people want to see how it looks right now, it's everything else about the console that would be more interesting to see

man, it seems like anybody who can make a 3D model of Switch 2 based on rumors can get an article about it these days, maybe I should make one

Slipstream also got 7/10 here so that just tells me I shouldn't listen to the reviews of these kind of racing games on this site

@Mach_Rider the lag for the rising attack is not just in the Switch version, plenty of people on Steam listed that as one of the issues with the game

@Zeebor15 Dispatch Games and First Press Games

@PikminMarioKirby woah watch out, you're gonna get Nintendo Ninjas sent after you for leaking this

@-wc- can't you read? I said MOST, not ALL, again, these are exceptions and not the rule

@Axecon trademark renewals mean absolutely nothing, there have been plenty of times where Nintendo renewed a trademark for an old game of theirs and nothing came out of those

if this is real then I'd be worth it just so they can add an option to put jump on B and attack on Y

@-wc- yeah but that's an exception, not the rule, most consoles go out with a whimper and not a bang

I backed the game on Kickstarter so I'll be getting a code for the Switch version but I also bought it on Steam because I didn't want to wait and I had a fantastic time with it, can't recommend it enough, one of my favorite games of this year

heads up, Antonblast got a delay on Switch https://x.com/Summitsphere/status/1862614657959145967

I've also been playing Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble thanks to the latest update, the new modes for the Adventure Mode have been pretty fun (although I wish they just added a regular arcade mode already, No Miss Challenge doesn't exactly count as good replacement even though I enjoy it) and the new levels are some of the hardest in the series and I love that
Aside from that I also started Crypt Custodian, played about 1/4 of it and I'm really liking it so far
Have a good weekend everyone

oh hey, that footage of DKC Returns HD at the end is new
And comparing that to the reveal trailer it looks like they fixed a lot of the visual quirks that were in that reveal trailer

@rio_j this is from the OPTIONAL easy mode the 3DS version had, the original mode was still there and I'm 100% sure it'll still be in the Switch version

it would be nice if one of those post launch improvements was giving the characters different movesets so they're not just skins and nothing more but I kinda doubt it's gonna happen

day one, it'll be nice to finally have a version that runs at 60 fps with normal controls and the 3DS extra levels
I still have no idea why they thought shaking the Wii remote to roll in the Wii version was a good idea

most of these just feel like gimmicks for the sake of having a gimmick
the only ones I would be ok with are USB-C port on top and StreetPass but even then I don't see them as necessary or even worthwhile additions

one thing people are forgetting is that Prime 1 remaster was rated two whole years before release, so if they are remastering the other two games in the same vein then I can see Prime 2 remaster being released next year easily

@Woodyshoe Reboot
It has a remake of this game that has new machanics and is a bit more beginner friendly, plus it has a Sharp X68000 port of the original

um, no?
there are still the Zelda remasters, Yoshi's Wooly World and, most importantly, Pushmo World

$35 and all characters play the same?
yeah no thanks, I'll wait for a sale

people seeing a Switch game releasing in march 2025
now how can I make it about Switch 2?
seriously people, stop, Switch 2 announcement will happen when it happens and making stupid predictions won't make it come sooner

I might grab it on a sale but for now I'll just wait for that Raiden Fighters collection that was announced last month

@Porky it ran at 30 FPS on both Xbox 360 and PS3

ok so it's not just me
I've been having issues with the battery draining faster than usual and games/updates not downloading when in sleep mode, I didn't notice any overheating issues but my friend did
I hope Nintendo will fix these issues soon

@Sinton it's just the PC and GBC versions right now

ok but when will they update it to run at 60fps instead of 50 and add the extended match options from the newest version?
this is the main drawback of this version right now, for some reason they based it on the 2012 (or 2013, not entirely sure) version instead of the 2020 version which is just weird, I don't understand why they did that

if it's releasing next year (which I'm convinced it is given how there isn't even a release window for this) then it's 100% launching on Switch 2 and not Switch 1

@RadioShadow they already said that they won't be getting a review code until the game's launch so smurf down a little

@Uncle_Franklin me, I wanted that

@OorWullie this is not THQ Nordic

@SearchingS that's not true, he likes 3rd party licensed kids games made on a 5 dollar budget

They hired that man!!!

@Bobb they said that there will be an option for analog controls

it takes two X ten million

I need to put more time into this one but I really loved what I've played

it's probably beyond the scope of this collection but it would be nice if they added an option to play Dawn of Sorrow with the luck stat fixed, as it's famously broken in that game, same with Aria of Sorrow in the Advance Collection

I'm gonna wait and see if they add Tetris Plus games to this as the other games don't interest me, neither does the museum aspect given how The Tetris Company is the same company that changed the origin date of Tetris back in 2009 just because they felt like running a 25th anniversary campaign that year, so who knows if anything in the museum part of this collection will be in any way accurate to the history of Tetris

still now convinced, I don't see these extra modes holding up after a few playthroughs, like I said elsewhere I wish they just focused on the main mode

alright, time to reset the counter, 0 days since the last Nintendo rumor

Adol is not great with ships, what a shock
Anyway, very excited to play this

@Max_the_German the file size is too big for it to be related to streaming, all streaming apps are less than half a gigabyte, just look up the cloud games available on Switch

after playing Climax for a long time it's a bit hard for me to go back to this one but it's still a pretty good game and way better than SNES, Maximum Velocity or 99 imo

I'm sure everyone will listen and nothing will get leaked, just like everyone listened when they asked them to not leak anything from the Nintendo Switch Sports Online Playtest...
oh wait...

@Don Tetris Attack is not a Tetris game, it's a Panel de Pon/Puzzle League game and Nintendo owns that

@Zeebor15 they closed down in 2001 but a different company named Blue Planet Software was funded in 1996 as a successor to Bullet-Proof Software (don't ask me how a company funded in 1996 is a successor to a company that closed 5 years later, i don't know) and in 2020 that company got rolled into The Tetris Company
