I prefer the pixel box arts from this era. Lets you know what you're in for. NA it is!

Yeah the NSO versions of 64 games have weird speed issues going on. I believe the credit sequences in Mario 64 and Mario Kart 64 also run fast, or maybe it's slow? I don't really remember but I know the music and events don't line up.

Lmaoooooo man that is too funny!

Oh wow, I can hardly notice a difference. Take out the side-by-sides and I couldn't tell you which is which. As long as performance is smooth, I'm going with the Switch version 100%.

I'm down. I always wrote the game off just by virtue of its generic looking box art, and I was really surprised to learn that it sold similar numbers to Banjo yet no one seemed to hold it in such esteem. I'd like to see what it's all about.

These new world map changes may be enough to draw me in. I got frustrated in the original release because I was constantly getting lost and had no idea where I was going or what to do. What I'm mad at myself about because I can navigate BK and DK64 with absolutely no issue.

I mean I wouldn't have even noticed

This is a game that I would love to get into but I straight up can't fit it into my schedule. New games are always releasing and my timeslots for perpetual check-in games are full for the foreseeable future. The odd instance where I do have time to squeeze another game in, like during a lull in releases, I'm using it to dig into the PS5 back catalogue since I only just bought it this year.

Good enough for me, Switch version it is

@obijuankanoobie Oh that's right, there's a demo! I'll give it a spin then, thank you.

Question: I'd like to try Sonic Frontiers, and I have both a Switch and a PS5. With the Switch sale in mind, would the convenience and portability for that price be worth it compared to the visuals and performance of the PS5 version? I'm not a FPS elitist in the slightest and don't notice 30 versus 60 unless they're side by side. But in general, how bad and laggy and choppy and ugly is the Switch version by comparison?

Hard up for cash, are they?

I'd rather buy it on Switch just for convenience so I'm waiting on reviews. If the game runs like garbage, then I will begrudgingly get it on PS5.

And I laughed and I laughed. They should've just leaned into it. Play test going live, if you're one of the lucky ones to get in then you'll help be an ambassador to demonstrate this exciting development!

Get those things away from me, man. They just remind me of the horrible grind to buy them all for that 100% completion.

Remember guys, they said the Switch was in the middle of its life cycle in early 2022. 2027 will be here before you know it!

Gotta hand it to the dude, he's improving the more he does the roles. His Wario is leagues better than that last Wario Ware game. Haven't heard his Luigi here yet but I think Mario sounds better than in Wonder.

I remember hearing about the game when it first came out but it was just a headline title I scrolled past. Apparently it's a bigger deal than I thought?

This is hilarious

Apparently co-op gaming is a big deal? Who knew lol I'm one of those stereotypical solitary nerds.

I didn't care for Gris so I'll pass on this. I am most assuredly not a fan of short, artful experiences 🤷‍♂️

Kinda funny. Kinda sad. Kinda weird. Still gonna keep buying the games, though.

I was on the fence for a while, but I think I'll go for it. Online against randos while knocking back a few sounds like a fun way to spice up my Friday evenings.

Picross S9 and F-Zero 99, that's about it. I need those shiny new decals.

EZ 100%. I'm gonna guess that the same part of my brain responsible for rote memorization of all the Pokémon kicked into gear when playing this game.

I hate the price of this thing and I hate the fact I'm going to pay it anyway even more 😂 I'm sorry but I'm one of those obsessive fans and I need to have this.

This was the one I had at the end of system's life, and I really wish I hung on to my previous models because this one died on me. Battery stopped holding a charge completely and the shoulder buttons became totally unresponsive. Very sad 😢

Are they really that naive or just stupid? Either way, good luck lmao

Well that's sad, it's only states on this continent. Hopefully some journalists will manage to snag a spot so I can read some impressions.

@ozwally I'd argue that it would be the best way to wake up! The best alarms are the super irritating ones that force you to get your behind out of bed.

I thought it looked pretty cute then I clicked the link in the tweet. 130 Canadabux, I don't think so, man.

Getting ready for the banned word list update drop

Man I didn't even notice until you pointed it out

I think Nintendo should add a legal exhibit to their museum. C&Ds and affidavits on podiums behind glass, wax figures of their lawyers, and other fun stuff like that.

A favourites tab would be great. More categories, too. Like elementals, aerial, usable underwater, stuff like that.

I sincerely haven't noticed a thing. I guess I don't pay close enough attention 🤷‍♂️

I enjoyed his series for a while but I admittedly fell off because it's in subtitles and I rarely just sit down to watch something; YouTube is more background noise while I do other things.

Looks cool! But I'm a friendless loser so I shall pass 😭

@NinChocolate "corporate museum," dude I love that wording, it's spot on!

They're taking down all these projects, right, but I'm sure some users have just re-uploaded them to other websites and stuck them in some torrents or something. With some of those users continuing development out of spite. Things just aren't wiped off the internet, that's not how it works. It doesn't bother me, personally, I just find it amusing at times.

Well, it's a football game in the UK. Bound to happen.

Zelda. I'm seeing people here talk about framerate and performance issues but I've encountered absolutely none of that so far and I'm exploring all over the map. I don't doubt that they're there, I just lack the attention to detail necessary to notice it.

I would like Nintendo to win this. I'm not invested in the case or anything and I ultimately don't care, it's just that it's the more amusing outcome to me personally.

Those rascals at Digital Foundry 😂 Someone has to pick the games apart, I suppose. I didn't notice any performance problems in my three playthroughs of Link's Awakening so I doubt I'll notice much of anything here. I'm really not that observant.

Rocking up to the party in my Wii U t-shirt

This is huge and I will taking advantage immediately!

I'm getting the game day one so this doesn't matter a whole lot to me but still a cool idea. Nice little blast from the past. But of course, it's always the "have" provinces that get these events. Atlantic Canada is once again left in the corner and forgotten about 😔

I'll totally grab it. Always been curious about the series and it seems pretty conducive to handheld play.

Eh maybe on a sale. And on the Switch. I have a PS5 but I won't play it there.

I don't think they'll win this one. But I'm no lawyer so who knows
