It will be interesting to hear his work on a GBC-inspired title, as I assume they are working with self-imposed limitations true to the tech (within reason).
Well, I missed out on Articuno due to the incorrect information in this page. It seems to have been removed, but this article definitely said that only one battle was required. Really poor work, guys.
I can understand why Nintendo would be reluctant to move on from such a massive success. If we do get a "Switch Pro", it would be wise to not leave the Switch behind.
Imagine two cartridge slots - a wider one for heftier "pro" games and the backwards compatible OG Switch slot.
@BloodNinja Haha, it's hilarious how you say I'm wasting my time yet here you are writing lengthy paragraphs.
Allow me to elaborate. I don't like LRG for a few reasons - their shipping costs are extortionate and they often have massive, massive delays. I've purchased three times from them, with Celeste being the last game. That game arrived eight months after they said it would.
@Tyranexx No problem! Another game which comes to mind is the excellent Castlevania - Dawn of Sorrow. You need to draw magic glyphs in battle, which is a bit risky as someone who prefers using the stylus with the left hand!
@Tyranexx It's playable, but definitely not ideal, as it's not natural using the right hand for movement. I'm cross-dominant but still found it a little easier. It's a good game but it can be cramp-inducing.

Re: Review: Wife Quest - A Bawdy Metroidvania That's Well Worth A Look
@LUIGITORNADO Oh grow up. There's not enough here to label this as "smut".
This looks like a fun, well designed game.
Re: Random: Build Your Own Nintendo DS With Joy-Cons And A Samsung Galaxy Z Flip
Imagine getting a phone call on the bus and holding this to your ear.
Re: Konami Announces Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection For Switch
This makes me extremely happy. I am going to play the shell out of this collection.
Re: Feature: 7 Reasons For Picking Starter Pokémon, But How Do You Pick Yours?
I voted "Other" because different factors come into play. Design, type, the evolution line etc.
Re: Random: Unused Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga Commercial Footage Surfaces
Haha, what a fun advertisement for a truly wonderful game.
Re: Japanese Charts: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Holds Strong In The Wake Of Elden Ring
I've been enjoying Elden Ring on PS4. It deserves the praise.

Re: Random: Elden Ring And Mario Odyssey Jostle For No. 1 On OpenCritic's 'Best Game' List
I'm going to play the hell out of it. I'll probably pick it up on PS4 so I can still enjoy it before getting a PS5 eventually.
Re: EA's CEO Seems Pretty Chill About Losing The FIFA Licence
They could just call it FEAFA and it will sound the same.
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Players Can Soon Get Shiny Galarian Articuno, Zapdos And Moltres - Here's How
@Rosona It sucks. I was busy with other "real-life" things but remembered to do this and squeeze in one battle, thinking it would be okay
I'll still get the other two, but you'd imagine the correct information would have been here. I should have known better.

Re: Microsoft 'Close' To Sacking Senior Dev Who Assaulted 7-Year-Old Son For Refusing To Stop Playing His Switch
Barely a slap on the wrist.
Re: Feature: 29 Best 3DS eShop Games You Should Get Before They're Gone Forever
I'd add Sadame to the list. Kind of like a 2D Nioh.
Re: Atlus Announces Soul Hackers 2, But It's Not Coming To Switch
I'm currently playing Soul Hackers so this is unexpected, excellent news.
Re: 'Capcom Fighting Collection' Brings An Arcade Exclusive Home After 26 Years
I'm going to be all over this.
Re: Video Game History Foundation Calls Out Nintendo's "Destructive" 3DS & Wii U eShop Closure
I only recently purchased and downloaded a couple of things on the 3DS e-shop. I hope Nintendo changes their mind, but I cannot see that happening.
Re: Random: The World's First Gamer Nut Butter Is Made For Gamers To Eat While Gaming
Absolutely hilarious. Can't wait to see people endorsing it with massive Jobbie shirts.
Re: Review: Swords & Bones - Ghosts 'N Goblins-Style Indie Action, With A Dash Of Castlevania
Not sure why all the screenshots in the article were changed. Pretty strange to have one of the credits screen now.
Re: Random: Who Needs 3DS? You Can Now Play Super Mario In Holographic Form
That looks brilliant! I still enjoy the 3D effect on the 3DS from time to time.
Re: Random: Check Out This Adorable 'Coat' For Your SNES
@abdias In that case, these should be mandatory!
Re: Random: Check Out This Adorable 'Coat' For Your SNES
I imagine this didn't take off for fire safety reasons. I mean, older consoles didn't get AS hot, but still....
Re: Nintendo President Reiterates That Switch Is "Just In The Middle Of Its Lifecycle"
@CactusMan That's sensible, yeah. I was just thinking if they decided to change the form factor for any future versions.

Re: Random: Wii Shop Channel Music Browser Extension (Version 2.0) Is Now Available For Mozilla Firefox
@sanderev So do you literally just scour the internet looking for things to report to Nintendo?
Re: Limited Run Games Is Opening Its First Physical Store In Spring

Re: Monolith Soft's Updated Website Has Some Nintendo Switch Fans Excited
Xenosaga HD Collection please!
Re: Metroid Prime Hunters Designer Would Love To See The Game Remade Today
@Tyranexx I recently played Okami HD to 100% completion, so I definitely enjoyed it!
Re: Limited Run Games Is Opening Its First Physical Store In Spring
@BloodNinja Poor analogy. A custom piece is one of a kind.
Re: Hardware: This Wireless Portable 4K Screen Offers Cable, Lag And Dock-Free Switch Gaming
For that price they can keep it. My 47" TV cost less!
Re: Limited Run Games Is Opening Its First Physical Store In Spring
I imagine going to buy something and them saying they'll ship it at a later date, just for continuity.
Re: Video: Zelda 64's Lake Hylia Has Been Reimagined In Unreal Engine 5, And It Looks Absolutely Stunning
You guys are a tough crowd.
Re: Metroid Prime Hunters Designer Would Love To See The Game Remade Today
@Tyranexx A game I really want to add to my collection!

@Tyranexx No problem! Another game which comes to mind is the excellent Castlevania - Dawn of Sorrow. You need to draw magic glyphs in battle, which is a bit risky as someone who prefers using the stylus with the left hand!
Re: Random: Artwork In Retro Japanese Magazine Depicts Link As A Female
Ranma 1/2 vibes.

Re: Square Enix Showcases More Triangle Strategy Features In New Trailer
I hope I can play this with Japanese audio and English text.
Re: Team17 Is Jumping On The NFT Train With 'MetaWorms'
I don't like NFTs but I wouldn't boycott a studio because of them. You can support devs and IPs without supporting NFTs.
Re: Metroid Prime Hunters Designer Would Love To See The Game Remade Today
Yes please! Even though the game supports left-handed controls, navigating with the face-buttons is still not ideal.
Re: Popular Video Game Music YouTube Channel Receives 1,300 Copyright Claims From Nintendo
If Nintendo are so eager to do this, they should just sort out putting together a channel of their own, dedicated to OSTs.
Re: Bayonetta 3's Lead Designer Actually Left PlatinumGames Two Years Ago
If he left in early 2020 but Platinum have said we are getting the game this year, I don't think there needs to be panic about this.
Re: Yacht Club Games To Share "Groundbreaking Announcement" In Upcoming Twitch Broadcast
The untested prequel to Shovel Knight - Shovelware Knight.
Re: Dreamcast Star 'Kao The Kangaroo' Is Making A Surprise Comeback On Switch
@Greatluigi You kind of answered your own question!
Re: Mortal Kombat's 2021 Movie Reboot Is Getting A Sequel
I thought it was enjoyable but not without flaws. The final third felt really rushed. Nothing compared to the original movie though.
Re: This Cancelled N64 Title Is Giving Us Serious 'Akira' Vibes
That colour palette looks great. I wonder if any footage will emerge now that this has surfaced?
Re: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Tops Amazon's "Best Sellers" Chart, Unsurprisingly
@Outerdragon Try all you want, Farfetch'd will eventually get you.
Re: Review: Pokémon Legends: Arceus - One Of The Greatest Pokémon Games Ever Made
Gameplay prevails, it seems! Very glad to hear this.
Re: Video: Beautiful '80s-Style Anime Cinematic Trailer Celebrates The Arrival Of Pokémon Legends: Arceus
@RubyDevilNine Well, this isn't a game, but an amateur production. The same level of critique doesn't apply here as it would to a AAA game.
Re: Video: Beautiful '80s-Style Anime Cinematic Trailer Celebrates The Arrival Of Pokémon Legends: Arceus
This looks really nice. People saying it looks unpolished and lacking just indicates how spoilt we are today. A lot of work clearly went into this.
