The worst thing about the 2K games is the amount of cutscenes wasted on advertising. The basketball games have fun core gameplay but there's so little game-time compared to cut-scenes of dancing and replays. I enjoy football games because there's generally a LOT less of that.
I got a cartridge of the translation for a tenner. That'll do fine.
Unless there's a big Mother anniversary coming up soon and they already have GBA games on Switch by then... It will get released exclusively for the JPN Switch Online and everyone else will blow a gasket!
I think I probably have theses games in various collections already, but delisting them is a poor move.
I understand they want to push sales for this new collection, but taking away the choice of; let's say Sonic The Hedgehog 2 as a standalone download seems silly.
The 3DS versions of Sonic 1 and 2 are my favourite versions. I'd recommend those to anyone who hasn't already picked them up!
@Dragonite89 @Eel I think it may be just a play on words. Mew instead of Few. There's no news of another Pokémon Go event with Mew, since there has already been two. To summarize - no new Mew; they are two. Phew.
The movie is good fun and the original version of the game is addictive arcade action. This version seems to allow you to actually "walk" so the extra modes and added Hoff may make this worth picking up too!

Re: Manage An "Internet Angel" In 'Needy Streamer Overload' This Fall
Interesting concept...but I think the title is wrong? The trailer shows "Needy Girl Overdose".

Re: PSA: Rocket League's New Cross-Platform Voice Chat Is Enabled By Default
Awful idea. Rocket League has a toxic community full of players constantly telling people to "KYS".
Re: Random: Daisy Fans Are Worried She's Been Dropped From Mario Strikers
I'd rather they added Tatanga!
Re: Random: Many At Retro Studios Weren't 'Excited' To Work On Mario Kart 7
So they were helping Nintendo get MK7 over the finish-line but they got Blue-Shelled.
Re: Random: Indie Horror Dev Launches Kickstarter To Create A Game For Pokémon Mini
@Orokosaki I guess because they also need to develop the game?
Re: Gallery: Check Out This Awesome New Key Art For Mario Strikers: Battle League
This game is looking really promising. Fantastic artwork!
Re: Review: Fragrant Story - A Goofy, Final Fantasy Tactics-Style Indie Swansong For 3DS
@Pjira Oh I wasn't talking about other consoles, sorry. I'm disappointed that it's a North American exclusive digitally too!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th May (North America)
Heads up for EU people looking to snap up some 3DS games - some Atlus and NIS games are back on sale. I just picked up Culdcept Revolt for €4.99.
Re: Review: Fragrant Story - A Goofy, Final Fantasy Tactics-Style Indie Swansong For 3DS
Wait....is it not releasing digitally anywhere else?
Re: Reggie Fils-Aimé Recalls Touching Advice He Received From The Late Satoru Iwata
I feel like I've read this book already at this point.
Re: Inappropriate Names In Nintendo Switch Sports Prompt Report Function Requests
@sikthvash I hope that was a bowling pun.
Re: Save Me Mr Tako: Definitive Edition Gets Update, Physical Pre-Orders Now Open
"both plush bundles are sold old"
Nothing quite like some pre-loved plush!
Re: Random: Metroid Prime's Logo Went Through 53 Different Iterations
@Kainbrightside This. It creates a creepy, lonely atmosphere immediately.
Re: Random: Wario Really Wanted You To Shop At TESCO In 2009
@duffmmann That's fair. They should have one for Waluigimart!
Re: Random: Wario Really Wanted You To Shop At TESCO In 2009
Nothing particularly strange about this. I'm in Ireland and Tesco stocked quite a lot of video games here then.
This is the equivalent of the US promoting Target/Walmart exclusives etc.

Re: Capcom Slashes Prices Of Games On 3DS & Switch eShop For Golden Week (North America)
Pretty tired of not getting these sales in Europe.
Re: Random: This Stunning Final Fantasy VI 'Terra Magitek Armour' Statue Costs A Small Fortune
if I win the lottery this week, I will buy one of these. Incredibly beautifully piece of art. Incredibly hefty price-tag.
Re: UK Charts: Kirby Crashes Out Of The Top Ten As LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Retains Top Spot
@Kirby_Girl You're right, the Wii anniversary collection didn't get a PAL release. Such a shame.
Re: Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D Physical Prices Jump As eShop Closure Looms
Glad I picked this one up years ago. I paid €5 for a brand new copy!
Re: Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D Physical Prices Jump As eShop Closure Looms
@Rob3008 The 3DS is region locked. One of Nintendo's most ridiculous moves ever when you consider boy the DS and GBA were region-free.
Re: Pokémon GO Devs Team Up With Ecosia For Environmental Incentive
@Mew2OwnsU I appreciate this, especially considering your username.
Re: Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series To Add New Features, Pre-Orders Now Open
Looking forward to having this physically!
Re: Nintendo Responds To Workers' Rights Complaint
Based on these crumbs of information, it looks like NDAs were broken. It will be interesting to see how this one develops.

Re: Dungeons Of Dreadrock Brings '80s Zelda-Like Dungeon Crawling To Switch This May
This looks more like Gauntlet or Solstice than a Zelda game. One to keep an eye on!
Re: Sonic Origins Arrives 23rd June, New Trailer And Website Are Live
@Outerdragon What a fantastic typo.
Sounds like a great collection, but things like menu animations locked behind different versions is lame.
Re: Video: Mass Effect Gets Advance Wars-Style GBA Demake
Looks and sounds great!
Re: Atlus Dominates 3DS eShop Chart As Pokémon Crystal Falls Off Top Spot (North America)
The Atlus games need a discount in Europe.
Re: Video: See Behind-The-Scenes Of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
I am so ready for this and the Cowabunga Collection.
Re: Nintendo Make Changes To Switch Online's Automatic Renewals
I like this. I know that PlayStation sends notifications when PS+ is drawing close to its' renewal date - does NSO do the same?
"Hey! Listen! Your Nintendo Switch Online expires soon!"
Re: Video: See Behind-The-Scenes Of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
@Zuljaras Wow, these are incredibly good!
Re: Mini Review: Tormented Souls - A Survival Horror Homage For Genre Nuts Only
Sounds like a classic Survival Horror. One to add to my wish list.
Re: Final Fantasy Uniqlo Range Accidentally Revealed Early
I rather like some of these. FFVI looks great.
Re: Feature: 10 3DS Retail Games That Might Be Cheaper To Buy Digitally While You Can

@Hackermon I hope this is your attempt at an April Fool joke.
Re: The 3DS Is Getting Another Physical Release This Year, And It's A Pun On 'Vagrant Story'
Guess this will be a digital purchase as it almost certainly won't be a PAL release physically.
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Players Can Soon Get Shiny Galarian Articuno, Zapdos And Moltres - Here's How
@Rosona I also missed Zapdos. I may try for Moltres just to serve as a reminder of missing the other two :')
Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Delayed To Spring 2023
Honestly, I'm kind of relieved.
Re: Random: Bloodborne Kart Is Real, And It's Coming "When It's Ready"
This looks like great fun, haha.
Also, so many of you are complete whingers.
Re: Activision Blizzard Hit With New Harassment And Discrimination Lawsuit
Absolutely disgusting.
Re: Nintendo Issues Copyright Strike Against Scanned Super Mario 64 Guide From 1996
This is petty.
Re: Despite The Impending eShop Closure, This Dev Is Bringing Seven New Games To 3DS And Wii U
That's a whole lot of Silver Falls.

Re: Ninterview: Coronation Street Star George Banks Talks About His Love Of Nintendo
Just a normal guy who loves a bit of Nintendo when not acting. Cool interview!
Re: 'Kung Fury' Video Game Adaptation Pays Tribute To Streets Of Rage, And It's Coming To Switch
