Good thing I lost my Sony fanboy badge after the PS3. I still think a PS4 would be a good purchase, but that price on the PS5 is totally unreasonable. Doom and glooming might push me to pick up a Switch 2 earlier than anticipated, but I still want to wait a little while longer.
I'm somewhere in between the top two answers. It's still in good working condition, haven't played it in about a year, but when I do, I play for months on end and it keeps up.
If it legitimately doubled as a portable music player, it'd be one thing. But this?! I'm really scratching my head at who this may appeal to. Hardcore money-wasters, perhaps?
I was just thinking the other day that I regretted not having played Maximum Carnage or Separation Anxiety on the SNES (although I have a hazy recollection of maybe having rented Carnage in college). I about fell out of my chair when this email hit my box.
"Boomers should probably step away"? I'm pretty sure that demographic (70 and 80 year olds), for the most part, isn't here. Unless you like referring to everyone older than you as a "Boomer".
@anoyonmus I'm assuming it's a time zone thing. This time of day rarely has updates (its loke 1am in the UK). They just posted the MGS article, so I assume the Castlevania article is being written and will soon be uploaded.
Man, I still love D2. Played waaayy too many hours over the years and multiple PCs (plus a little on Switch). One of my absolute favorites, but that's too steep a price.
Interesting, I dont find much to fault either one with, other than maybe a cropping issue with the NA one. But the JP cover has an ominous vibe to it that I like, so I went with that one.
@Nick2054 We use alcohol wipes to clean ours after every couple of prints. Our printer also came with a "glue" that we apply to the plate to make sure the first pass sticks well
Those are pretty fantastic! I'll be bookmarking this so I can come back for ideas.
My crafty wife wanted a 3d printer for Christmas, so I obliged. She loves it, and makes all kinds of cool trinkets and fidgets for the grandkids and their friends.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Capcom Vs SNK 2 EO (GameCube)
I dont know that I care for either one, so screaming dude with a sword wins.
Re: Review: Marvel Maximum Collection (Switch) - A Decent Nostalgia Cake With A Konami Cherry On Top
I'll be picking up an LRG physical copy. I've been itching to play Maximum Carnage and Separation Anxiety for quite some time.
Re: PS5 Gets An Insane Price Increase – Will Nintendo Follow Suit?

Re: Disgaea Devs Dig Into Spooky Farm Sim Trend This Fall With 'Village In The Shade'
Intriguing! Veggies, cows and....mystery?!
Re: Japanese Teens Apparently Love Nintendo Switch More Than Pokémon & Disney
Not surprised they big N is more popular than Disney in Japan. But I would like to visit that awesome Disney Resort in Tokyo someday...
Re: "New Players Won't Feel Alone" - Square Enix Partners With Google For AI-Powered Dragon Quest Companion
That slope? Looks pretty slippery to me.
Re: Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Publisher Responds To AI Outfit Allegations
Its like the Spanish Inquisition out there: blame everything and everyone of being/using AI for any reason.
Re: Review: Shadow Tactics: Blades Of The Shogun (Switch 2) - A Stealthy Gem That's Both Tough & Approachable
Thanks for putting me on to this. I'll have to grab a copy once I move to the Switch 2.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Mario Hoops 3 On 3
Dunking on DK while Peach throws a bomb!? How could anything top that?!?
Re: Poll: 20 Years On, Does Your DS Lite Still Have Charge?
I'm somewhere in between the top two answers. It's still in good working condition, haven't played it in about a year, but when I do, I play for months on end and it keeps up.
Re: Pokémon-Themed Mini Game Boy Announced, Though It's Not What You Think
If it legitimately doubled as a portable music player, it'd be one thing. But this?! I'm really scratching my head at who this may appeal to. Hardcore money-wasters, perhaps?
Re: Disgaea Returns To Switch 1 & 2 This Summer With An Action RPG Twist
I'm still a Disgaea fan, even though I cant put the time into them anymore. This definitely looks like a Musou, so I'll keep an eye on it.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite 3DS Model?
2ds for me. I never could get behind the 3d gimmick, but there are some great games I've enjoyed on my 2ds.
I'd probably love a 2dsxl, if I had ever tried one, but I haven't.
Re: Marvel Maximum Collection Revives Six Classic Superhero Titles On Switch
@Yoshi3 It was lifted straight from a comic mini-series of the same name.
Re: Marvel Maximum Collection Revives Six Classic Superhero Titles On Switch
I was just thinking the other day that I regretted not having played Maximum Carnage or Separation Anxiety on the SNES (although I have a hazy recollection of maybe having rented Carnage in college). I about fell out of my chair when this email hit my box.
So. Ready.
Re: Party Platformer 'King Of Meat' Bites The Dust Before It Could Make It To Switch
@Res462
Should probably be "closing up shop".
Re: Party Platformer 'King Of Meat' Bites The Dust Before It Could Make It To Switch
But, wait! What about these studio heads and CEOs telling us how much we want more live service games?
Its almost like they've been wrong all along...
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - The Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening
The gold covers are iconic.
Re: Nintendo Seemingly Rules Out Virtual Console Revival, Says It Remains Focused On Offering Classics Via Switch Online
I'm an ownership advocate, so I'm not impressed with "service" games. I want to buy, not rent.
Re: Review: Virtual Boy For Switch 1 & 2 - Is It Really Worth Revisting Nintendo's Greatest Folly?
I think a 7 is far to generous. Not everything from the past should be revisited.

"Boomers should probably step away"? I'm pretty sure that demographic (70 and 80 year olds), for the most part, isn't here. Unless you like referring to everyone older than you as a "Boomer".

Re: Live Out Your British Murder-Mystery Fantasy In 'Clue: Murder By Death' On Switch
I....I think I love that title.
Re: Konami's Anniversary Revival Of Castlevania Is Only Just Beginning, Expect More "New Products"
Castlevania 64 remaster, please and thanks.
Re: Castlevania: Belmont's Curse Unveiled For Switch, Launching In 2026
Yes. Yes! YES!!
I've been waiting far too long for a new 2d Castlevania.

Re: Are Diablo 4 And Diablo 2 Coming To Switch 2? Blizzard Stays Silent
A Switch 2 version of D4 would probably convince me to buy it. I've been a big Diablo fan since the beginning, but I have yet to try out 4.
Re: Diablo II: Resurrected Announces New 'Warlock' Class, And It's Available Today
Man, I still love D2. Played waaayy too many hours over the years and multiple PCs (plus a little on Switch). One of my absolute favorites, but that's too steep a price.
Re: Oblivion, Skyrim And Fallout Switch 2 Physicals Will All Be Code-In-A-Box, Bethesda Confirms
I really expected the Switch 2 to be my first digital-only console, but a physical Indy has me hoping I can stay physical a little while longer.
Re: Square Enix's Gorgeous HD-2D Zelda-Like 'The Adventures Of Elliot' Launches This June
Looks great, seems like it will be fun, but I'll definitely have to turn those voices off. The voice acting in that video is absolutely atrocious!
Re: Indiana Jones Cracks His Whip On Switch 2 On 12th May 2026
This is the Switch 2 announcement I've been waiting for! My wife got me the PC collector's edition for Christmas, its pretty epic.
Looks like I'll be getting that Switch 2 sooner rather than later.
Re: Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase Announced For Tomorrow, 5th February 2026
Ogre Battle games, please and thanks.
Also, Dark Forces 2 and the Rogue games.
Ya, I seem to only care about remake/remasters these days.
Re: Talking Point: Where's Your Nintendo Labo Now?
Never got one. Forgot they were a thing. If I had, I'm a bit of a hoarder so it'd be on a shelf or in a tote in the basement.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Red Alarm (Virtual Boy)
Interesting, I dont find much to fault either one with, other than maybe a cropping issue with the NA one. But the JP cover has an ominous vibe to it that I like, so I went with that one.

I make lightsaber hilts...
Re: Random: This Fan Is Ripping Nintendo's Finest Tunes Onto Vinyl, Including The 3DS Menu Theme
I'm an audio snob. This is a waste of time and energy.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island
Both are equally terrible, but I like the composition of the JP one better.
Re: Switch 2 Remains The Fastest-Selling Console In The US At 4.4 Million Units
Juat waiting on a few more "must-haves" to add myself to that number.
Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Is Getting A Trio Of New amiibo
I was really hoping we'd eventually see a Mariophant...Eliphantario...?
I'll have to grab that one.
Re: Ubisoft Cancels 6 Games In Major Organisation Restructure
At least they didn't mention NFTs and Blockchain.
We really dodged that bullet!
So long, Ubi, you barely knew us...
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift (DS)
Never cared for the "brown bag" (so to speak) NA cover.
Re: Star Trek: Voyager - Across The Unknown Beams Onto Switch 2 Next Month
I originally read "integrated" as "intregal" and about lost it. Nevermind on that though.
As a Voyager fan, I'm glad to see the willingness to continue examining this part of Trek.
Cautiously optimistic.
Re: LEGO Pokémon Reveals First Sets, Launches February 2026
I love Lego and have shared that love with my grandkids. They will be bonkers over these!
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Mario Power Tennis (GameCube)
This is the first one I've really waffled on. Went with the Japanese cover...but just barely.
Re: Review: Fire Emblem: Path Of Radiance (GameCube) - Aged & Easier Than You're Used To, But Still A Winner
Once everyone is done playing it online, can we have a cart for it pretty please?
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch 2's GameCube Library With Another Game
Excellent!
This and Radiant Dawn need non-online remakes.
Re: Poll: Which Call Of Duty Do You Want To See On Switch 2?
@metaphysician The CoD guys worked on some of the Early MoH games, I was being silly.
Re: Poll: Which Call Of Duty Do You Want To See On Switch 2?
No option for Medal of Honor?
Sorry, those were the last games of this type I played. GameCube, I think.
Re: Switch 2 Sales Reportedly Struggled Over The Christmas Period
I want one, but I want a better selection of games first. Indiana Jones would make me pull the trigger though.
Re: Final Fantasy Tactics: Ivalice Chronicles Dev Considering Future Game Updates
If its anything other than language support, I say leave it alone.
