At this point all the recent games have been mostly terrible that Sonic’s image has been destroyed. It’s time Sonic is put out to rest. I don’t mean to be negative but hopefully this will be the movie that will retire him for good.

In Regina George voice (mean girls)
Stop trying to make Sonic happen! It’s never gonna happen!

Wouldn’t even touch this a 10ft pole... omg, I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.

I’ve been around since the 80’s but unlike many nostalgic gamers- I rarely look back. Especially this far back.

I kickstarted this and after who knows how many years its finally out. Unlike other Duds I’ve backed, this one is actually fun. I love the defense tower sections. I’m gonna recommend this one for sure.

Is it just me or was this game incredibly difficult? I'm not talking about the main game, I'm refering to the DLC. I felt like it was too brutal so I gave up. All my characters were level 100-110 and I still couldn't get through it. I couldn't get past more than 3 majoras mask missions. I felt like Fire Emblem Warriors was better balanced on the difficulty.

@manu0 lol!!! I was thinking the same thing. No mention at all. It’s a straight up rip.

@the8thark I agree with you on the scores that are given on this website are not what they used to be. I used to love coming to a place where reviews felt honest and scores not inflated as they seem nowadays. I’ve been having to compare with other sites before making an educated decision. Usually a 9 from NL really means a 6 or 7. Score don’t mean anything anymore. I truly believe that pay for scores is at play here. They just should just be honest about it.

I’m just laughing at all the people who still have hopes and dreams of a good Sonic game after 8 hideous games. At this point it seems that colors and generations ended up being unintentionally good lol. Retire sonic already. Remove him from Smash Bros. He doesn’t even deserve to be there. Way more worthy characters with better games.

@diaverik I don’t mean this in a rude way, but why should we? They are trying to sell a game to a different audience and region. Why do I have to go out of my way to watch a foreign trailer just to convince myself to buy it? They should be the ones to deliver trailers that make me excited for this game.

Overall, it looks ok. I love Pokémon so of course I’ll play it. Am I happy with what I am seeing? No. It looks like DLC for sure. At some point the formula has to change. Things are getting very stale. Been playing since red and blue on the GB.... maybe that’s why....

@FinalFrog No! You don’t lose your card to the winner lol. I remember back in the day the older kids would trick me and tell me the loser would have to give up their cards. Dang bullies! They got me every time😂

I love playing and collecting Pokémon TCG. It can be a pricey hobby if you don’t know where to buy your stuff. The game is really fun and competitive. I reccomend you check out:

www.psychoturtlegames.com

they always have the best prices on everything. Also, if you are in southern California they host events once a months for people that don’t know how to play and teach you. The two owners Josh and Robert are so down to earth and friendly. They are Nintendo and Pokemon fans and even have their own decks to battle customers that want to take them on. Josh even helps you build a deck. They give you missing trainer and energy cards. Highly recommended

This was definitely the highlight of all Pokémon games. Definitely one of my favorites. Although I played the heck out of this, I don't think I could ever backtrack on any Pokémon game. I feel that Pokémon is one of those series where you play it, enjoy it, and never look back due to the constant new content, mechanics, and Pokémon that are introduced in each iteration. Definitely will buy it to support the virtual release and get my celebi for Sun & Moon ultra tho.

Ugh! I have no choice but to double dip! This game is too good! I couldn't stop thinking about the ending for a few days. Truly amazing!

Wow... the levels looks so boring and uninspired... based on what I saw there isn't much of gameplay... it seems like an on rails timing fest. Pass for sure!

@Donutman I agree! I wish metroid was on the switch. I'm gonna hate going back to 3DS

I've already moved on to switch. I'll only be touching 3DS and WiiU only if I must. I don't understand why many people on here don't understand that and get mad at developers for not releasing games on the 3DS or Wii U. Just because you are still stuck in the past or can't afford a switch doesn't mean that developers should cater to you. All I know is that Switch is the new nintendo platform and that's where I expect all the games to be going forward. I'm not looking back and neither should you. If you like Nintendo and you like their games you need to get a Switch, simple as that. Don't want one? Don't expect special treatment. If it were up to me I'd cancel all the Remaining Wii U games and 3DS games and find a way to get them on switch. Just polish them up and make some adjustments but move on. The switch is the future of handheld and console gaming for Nintendo. If you don't get that by now, then you never will.

I'm having a hard time getting into it.... it seems like It's not my thing. Feels kind of basic and plain... maybe I should play more of it but it's starting to become a drag 3 hours in... oh well.

Reviews on here have been overly generous in the last few months. I remember that a few months ago I would agree with the reviews 90% of the time but lately it's more like 20% percent. Not sure why games are getting 8's and 9's when they really feel like 6's and 7's. Other websites have a much lower score average for many of those "top reviewed" games on Nintendolife.

I'm used to it. It's been this way since the beginning of time. I've come to the conclusion that they don't care. They have a number in mind when they launch a product and they stick to it.

Ouch! I'm going to pass on this one. Nintendolife reviews are kind to nintendo most of the time. If they are saying this is a 6/10, it really must be a 3/10.

Ain't nobody got time for that! Pass.

I just can't see this happening. How?! The switch would probably burst into flames. There's no way it can handle such a game in terms of power. They would have to water it down considerably.

Wow, I didn't know he had an appointed peon to defend him @BAN
😂

In the video @BAN

I'm sorry, but what kind of person has time for that? I can't believe someone would listen to this track over 200 times just to catch something like this...

🙄

Just end it already. Sonic's reputation is beyond redemption at this point. Let it die in peace.

Happy Birthday has-been! You are a blue blur of a memory.

I'm probably in the minority here but I really cannot get myself to enjoy this game. It feels too barebones. I also don't really enjoy the combat. It seems slow and kinda clunky. I was really exited to play it, but after playing it, I don't feel like going back and booting this game up. I think I'm done with it. Not my thing.

The trailer looks bad... Tried the demo and it's even worse....

pass.

Wii U is dead and has been dead for a long time. This makes total sense.

@Sakura right?! This seems stupid. Why do I have to take them off? Such an inconvenience. I was planning on just leaving them on while docked the system. I did t even plan on using the system off the dock.

I have mine preorder, but I'd be lying if I said I was really excited about this system. In all my years since the NES I have never felt the way I do with this Launch. Very dissapointing in so many ways. Everything feels rushed. It's like the Wii U Launch again. At this point in the game we really shouldn't have to be waiting for features that should be there on day one.

I'm calling it now. This thing will be another failure. There's no way that all this unpreparedness will lead them to the top again with this system. I just don't get why they can't get it together.

I'll believe when I see it. Lately nintendo has been all talk, no action, and a whole lot of broken promises....

The more I read about the the Switch, the more it feels like a giant micro transaction in physical form.

@RatKing64 I'm sorry but I've heard this time and time again. I'll believe it when I see it. Nintendo has done nothing in the last 5 years that makes me one bit confident in what they do anymore. At this point if you are like me, you are buying a switch with full understanding that you may not have great on-going 3rd party support and that you may be without games new games to play for a long period of time.

@PotatoTheGreat I don't get it either. I don't understand how anyone see anything positive from all this. The real fans see it how it is, and it definitely looks grim. Nothing to be excited about here. As I fan I'm going in with the full understating that I am likely going have another WiiU on my hands.

@Al_Godoy I agree. I don't understand why there's people on here that can't seem to get a grasp of reality. I'm sure you are fan like myself and have been following Nintendo for years. We have seen this happen time and time again. It's clear that they are out of touch and they don't understand today's market. I'm calling it now- dead on arrival. Calling this awful would be an understanment in my opinion.

As a fan of nintendo for 24+ years, I didn't expect anything different from what I saw. It's almost like they have become so predictable in the way that they run things at that place that I knew nothing amazing was going to happen during the livestream. I was honestly hoping for change but it looks like they are going down the same path they took with the Wii U, and we all know how that turned out... my biggest question is, how do you not have a stellar line-up of games when you haven't released anything major In a while?

32gb?! Don't even get me started. Knowing how nintendo works, they will probably limit memory cards to 128gb- and even that may be too high.

Fire emblem and Mario are nice but let's keep it real. How long did Fire Emblem on WiiU take to be realeased from when it was announced? It could be years! Mario Holiday 2017 is bull, if you know how Nintendo works it will end up being more Summer 2018 at the earliest, but mostly likely it will be late 2018.

I am very disappointed. I'm willing to bet that virtual console is still in development and we won't see it until late 2017 at the earliest. To me this whole switch Launch is like Deju all over again. I'm calling it now- this will be another flop. I don't understand why they can't learn from their mistakes.

I preordered mine with the full understanding that once I beat Zelda, this system will collect dust for a very long time before I pick it up to play something worth my time. How sad is that?

Don't worry. I've learned not to expect anything from Nintendo in the last few years...

I recommend them if you have an iPhone. They are awesome! Can't wait to see what Nintendo and apple come up with next.

Nobody wants it in Japan, in the UK, or the US. It's not like we didn't warn them. I think the overwhelming negative response from E3 all the way to the most recent game trailer before the release date should have been a clear as day sign for Nintendo. Too bad that the franchise will probably not see another title in a while or if ever, but I wasn't about to support something that clearly wasn't metroid.

Utter crap. I was hoping this month would be better but here we are again, same crap. They should just shut it down. The system does not make sense. At the very least let me redeem the discounts as codes so I can't give them to someone else that may not have the game. If this is supposed to be my reward for buying games, then I rather not have anything because I won't be disappointed at something that is being offered that doesn't benefit me at all. It's like they are dancing a carrot in front of me that I don't even want in the first place.

I voted with my wallet. This is the first game from Nintendo that I didn't not purchase. I always buy anything that is published or made by them but
This is the first game I refuse to buy. This is not what I wanted for the metroid series and they will not be getting my money. I'm glad to see that many other fans did the same thing.

We don't want it, and we're not having it. We have spoken! It's a done deal. Nothing that is said in favor of this game at this point can save it now. I can guaranty this is the last time we see this spin-off. Bye Felicia!

I was hoping Legendary wouldn't get the rights.... Horrible studio....

I didn't like this game at all. I hated the "flash" looking graphics and the game physics felt weird. Beat one level and never touched it again.

@the101 it's not an extreme statement by any means. It's true that Nintendo hasn't published a decent Mario party game in years, but they have published and developed tons of quality titles and many fresh ideas. Last time Sega did anything noteworthy was eons ago. I don't know about you, but every time Sega is mentioned or brought up, I run the opposite way.

The only thing that amazes as me at this point, is the people that still stand up and try to defend this pile of turd of a company. Maybe that's why they keep doing what they do.

Everything Sega touches turns to poo. This is exactly why I don't believe anything they say anymore. All this talk about "focus on quality" literally means nothing to me. Sega is too down the hole now to get itself out. They don't know what quality is and I don't expect them to turn things around in the blink on an eye.

They are done. Simple as that.

Sure sure... Quality, blah blah... Heard it all before. Just let Sonic die off already.

I wish this game wouldn't be so hard. I was very disappointed that I couldn't S rank all the adventure map missions. Specifically twilight and Majoras mask. I like difficult but this was too much.

@Blue_Blur wow.... I wish I had the same kind of optimism and hope for a Sonic game as you do. At this point, Sonic's reputation is too tarnished in my eyes to ever give it another chance. Never again.

This is just disgusting. This has to be one of the worst E3 showings ever. A another Mario Party and more Amiibos?! Who the F asked for that?! Haven't we all been screaming about the horrible quality of these titles for the past 5 years?!

At this point the Sonic brand is tarnished. Every time I see a Sonic game, I run away from it as fast as possible. Sonic just needs to die.

I don't like Jakks products. They are cheap looking and not very detailed. I hope Nintendo moves away from that toy manufacturer.

@Peace-Boy Look. I know it will get better eventually, but looking back at their history, that change may come in 2-3 years from now... My whole thing is, if you are going to have a rewards system make sure it's inclusive of everyone and actually offer rewards people want. If you are going with all digital rewards at least offer discounts on "any" 1st party game. If you can't do that then offer some sort of "exclusive" dlc. Perhaps a conversion system where I turn gold coins into silver coins?

Maybe I'm just old... As a fan of Nintendo since 89' maybe I'm just like an old grouchy grandpa. Lol
