Snapped up Rogue Trooper Redux at that price ! been wanting that for a while

That's a fantastic discount for Sine Mora EX, gonna have to get that, maybe Enter The Gungeon too

This is the first game on the e-shop that i pre-ordered, just looks really fun and i love the character design, looking forward to giving it a spin.

This actually looks quite good fun, might have to give it a purchase, i don't do mobile gaming so i'm actually glad some mobile games are making their way to Switch, i really enjoyed Implosion in particular

II would love the Bioshock Collection next, along with the DMC Collection and DMC 4 too

Seeing the gameplay footage of Bomb Chicken makes me wonder why Konami never tried to make a 2D Bomberman game in a similar style, it would be awesome

Take your time with it Nintendo, i want it to be as good as it can be, if it can capture even half the magic of the first Prime game it will still be amazing.

You could always give us the trilogy in HD to keep us occupied in the meantime though lol

Adore this game, will be double-dipping for sure, i really hope we get a sequel too, Toad's just the best

I'll only buy this one if it has a story mode, i adored Brawl's, but ended up barely playing the Wii U version as its single-player content was non-existent.

Looking forward to receiving this on friday, i'm not usually into sports games but enjoyed the demo a few weeks back and am looking forward to playing through the story mode, i just need to try and finish DOOM first lol

@Menchi187 Why do you come on here if you hate Nintendo so much ? your trolling and attempts to get people to buy games on other consoles is absolutely pathetic, get a life for god's sake.

I'm gonna guess at Fallout 4, makes sense after they released Shelter, but would love for Doom Eternal to be confirmed to be coming to Switch, and then that it is coming out the same time as the other versions too.

@Wanjia i agree, there's a big (first-party) gap between Mario Tennis Aces and Pokemon, maybe it will be still be filled by something that hasn't been announced yet but it's looking increasingly unlikely.

Personally i am just gutted we didn't get Pikmin 4 and the Prime Trilogy in HD for this year, those alone would have been enough for me, even more frustrating when we heard the former was almost complete so many years ago, makes you wonder if its being totally redesigned or something ?

@Wolfgabe I agree with you points i just don't see why some others are attacking people who wanted more/wanted something else.

It is frustrating to see people calling others entitled or spoilt for simply being disappointed, can you blame people for naturally expecting updates for already announced games ? (Prime 4, Pokemon, Bayo 3, SMT, Yoshi, Pikmin 4) or those heavily hinted at (Animal Crossing, Wave Race).

Heck it's been over four years since we heard from Retro Studios, they are my fave devs in the industry, am i entitled to really want to hear what they are working on ?

The Switch is over a year old and we still don't have simple things like folders, e-shop music, youtube or internet apps.

If you're happy with Smash great, i'm glad for you but it doesn't make others frustrations or disappointment unjustified or unwarranted, just my two cents.

@johnvboy Because they're amazingly fun games in a genre we don't get many games in, that's why. What have sales figures got to do with it ? if you love a game, you love it, simple, it doesn't matter whether a million or more people also do.

There must be a Fallout 3, 4 or New Vegas port announced in the Nintendo Direct surely ? why else bring this to Switch ???

@Yasume Big the cat, Cream, Silver, Team Chaotix, Blaze, Tikal, Chip and the two that'll be appearing in Mania, can't remember their names lol

I've got a feeling this game will have quite a limited print run here in Europe and could well end up being rare down the line, games coming out at the end of a console's life-span often do. I still haven't played the first one yet but think i'll get this pretty soon just in case i am right lol Love how it looks

If anyone hasn't bought DK Returns yet i highly recommend it, an incredible game that's even better on the 3DS, with a great 3D effect and no annoying waggle controls, i wish Nintendo had carried on releasing more Wii ports for the 3DS, Excite Truck, Kirby's Epic Yarn and Endless Ocean etc would have been great additions to its library. Heck even N64 ports of Paper Mario and F-Zero X would be great too, i love the 3DS so much

Hmmm even though i like the sound of this and really want Starfox to become a more popular franchise i'm not convinced this is true, all reports in the last few years have said Retro are working on a story-driven game, why would they have employed a story-writer who worked on Uncharted just for a racing game ?

There's always the possibility they've been working on two games all these years though, they are a large studio after all, they also helped out on Mario Kart 7 so who knows ?.....

I cannot wait for this, it's fitting that the game will finally be in 3D after it was one of Nintendo's first experiments with the effect way back when.

I'm surprised to see the negative comments about Dark Moon though, for me it's an incredible game and one of the best on the 3DS.

I really hope this means Next Level Games are working on a third game for the Switch, just imagine how good it could look and how great the animations could be with the power of the Switch !! E3 can't come soon enough ! lol

Fantastic xD

Alex, never stop making vids ! haha

I really hope the VC does come back, and not just as part of the Online sub, i want to be able to outright buy VC games and not just have them for as long as my subscription is active.

Hmm i might have to get this, i loved Kururin on the GBA.

@BensonUii I agree with you totally, though i can see the points of Octane etc as well, but i think where the SQ mods overstep the line is that they are quite insulting to people, one even mocked someone for having mental health issues a few weeks back which was totally out of order.

Not brilliant as usual but i will probably get the discount for Kirby's Blowout Blast, been wanting that for a while, it's still better than nothing i guess, Sony offer nothing back from your PS purchases and MS's reward scheme is convoluted and a bit of a faff so i'm still glad we at least get something, even if it is just the odd discount here and there.

@Nincompoop Actually the Dreamcast/PS2 Wacky Races game was excellent

I also think Nintendo has many unannounced, brand new Switch games to be revealed for this year, we know about Smash, Metroid, Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Yoshi and Pikmin already, then there are hints of new DK and Wario games plus whatever Retro is working on, and i'm sure they have more in the pipeline too so i wouldn't worry about all the ports lol

Damn, i've just wrote a list of all the Switch games i want in the coming months -

Hyrule Warriors Complete
DK Tropical Freeze
Captain Toad
Okami HD
Mario Tennis Aces
Dark Souls Remastered
Ys VIII
De Blob/De Blob 2
Legend of Kay Anniversary
Megaman Legacy 1/2
Megaman X (whenever it launches)
Octopath Traveller
Owlboy
Wolfenstein II
Little Nightmares Complete
South Park:TFBH

How the hell am i going to afford them all ? !! lol

and yes i know there's a lot of ports but for me they are very welcome, i didn't get around to playing some of the Wii U games (i'm ashamed to say i did buy them all at launch but they fell straight into my backlog haha).
There's also some games like Kay and Okami that i played originally and loved and i am over the moon to be able to play them again on the newest hardware, so while i can see why some people get frustrated with too many ports, i personally welcome them with open arms

My top 5 picks -

Krystal from Starfox - A staff wielder is sorely needed in the roster.

Chibi-Robo - the little guy deserves another chance to establish himself as a main Nintendo character.

Paper Mario - Ditch Dr. Mario for his paper-based form, much more potential for creative moves utilising his partners from the first two games.

Ridley - As cool as Dark Samus would be, she'd almost certainly just be a clone, Ridley deserves a spot more. His size has come up as a reason why he cannot be included but Bowser is also huge so i don't see how its not achievable.

Waluigi - Just needs to happen ! lol

I'd also like to see Dillon added but he's still quite new, add him as an assist instead.

@gaga64 Wonderful 101 as well, this was teased by Platinum to be coming to Switch too so i wouldn't be surprised to see it this year.

A cel-shaded game with robots from the maker of Gunman Clive ? what's not to love ! i'm in !!! haha

Best news of the Direct for me, i'm super hyped to have the original on the 3DS, it also shows Nintendo still has interest in the series too so hopefully we'll get a brand new, third game on Switch at some point.

I've just tried the Kirby demo, it's as fantastic as i knew it would be, love the new a.i friend mechanic, i can see there being some fun puzzles in the main game using it, and the graphics are beautiful, after so many portable Kirby games it's kinda weird seeing the little blob in crisp HD goodness, but a good weird haha can't wait for the game to come out now

I enjoy checking it every now and then but i wish there was the option to filter it to only your own region, once you create separate accounts for Europe/Japan/US you get all three coming through on the news channel, with no way to only see just one again.

Nothing to do with this actual game but man i would love a Pacman World 4 on Switch, they didn't review well but 2 and 3 were what made me fall in love with the Pacmeister haha shame it is unlikely to ever happen.

As has been said before, EA are an extremely lazy, cynical publisher, they also lack the basic creative desire to create fresh, new games/franchises/experiences etc that you'd think all people in the gaming industry would have ?

It's annoying too because they have some great franchises under their belt, just going unloved, i know i'd buy the Dead Space Trilogy, a new Alice game or a PvZ Garden Warfare game on Switch but they're too stupid to realise any of these would be a good idea.....

Really wish this had come out in Europe, i really want to play it, Moon Chronicles is another 3DS game that i wanted that never came out here, i am so glad the Switch is region-free lol

@Bass_X0 I am really glad the Switch is region free and i will be importing this and looking forward to getting it, i've only played one or two of the games before so excited to have the full collection but i don't really understand why Capcom are so against at least dipping their toes and seeing if there is an appetite for physical in Europe, they'll never know unless they try lol

But as you say, at least the option is there for me, it's just mildly annoying is all haha

I'm getting tired of Capcom not releasing physical in Europe, i will be importing the physical of this (as well as Revelations at some point) but it would be nice to just have them released here, they could at least experiment with one game to see if the interest is there, they will never know if they keep shunning the idea.

I received the Bayonetta 1 and 2 Special edition as a birthday present yesterday, it's one of the smallest special editions i've ever seen ! lol but brilliant all the same, the steel-book is lush, glad to see it doing fairly well in the UK, some of us do have good taste haha

Looks good, i'll add it to my list of (rather long lol) e-shop titles to buy

Quite interested in Vesta and World To The West but would like to read reviews on them first.

Think i'll have to grab Gurumin 3D at that price !

If playing solo on this do you get to have AI characters alongside you or are you totally alone ?

The GC controller is by far my fave controller ever so this is great news for me, really hope we get GC VC soon !

Looking forward to getting this when i get some money, always meant to pick up the Wii version but never did, nice to finally have some shooters on the Switch, what with this and Doom on the way, been way too long since we had some decent ones on a Nintendo console.

Both the UI and the e-shop definitely do need a big upgrade now, i'm surprised we haven't heard about one by now to be honest, i would definitely like more themes and some music, maybe give us a few different choices of music (would love the Wii shop music personally) but make it optional for those who don't want it. That's the key really, give us more options for customisation, things like folders and themes to give it some much needed personality, but make them all optional.

I enjoyed the japanese demo of this, it's surprisingly hard though, partly due to dying if you fall even just a few inches off the ground lol

Will probably buy the full game
