People gave this game crap for being a collectathon but those type of games were my Jam! It's just like Banjo and Mario 64 before that so why the hate? Everybody loves those.

I never hear that complaint about Mario odyssey and that was one heck of a huge collectathon!

That was pretty sad. Poor guy had a bile duct infection and they tried saving him but it just wasn't enough. He contributed to many of my favorite games. 😔

It'll never top the original just based on the missing songs. I'll probably still get it for switch on a deep sale but glad i still got my original copy.

I never understood why Japan is so relaxed on this stuff but in America it's all (Won't somebody think of the children!) Any instance of nudity or partial nudity, overly exaggerated fun bags etc is immediately looked down upon. Why are people so ashamed and embarrassed about the human anatomy?

Like when men walk down the street shirtless who appear to have breasts because they are so out of shape and that's just fine. An actual woman does it and....you cover those up this instant young lady!

Confuses the heck outta me. 😕

Now how did stellar blade pass just fine? Not to mention all the crazy exaggerated female designs in the street fighter series?

It was way overpriced for one thing. Game already cost 70 dollars and they wanna pile more on top of that for 40 or 50 dollars? Yeah screw DLC! I sure miss fighters with unlockable characters instead of spoon feeding us overpriced microtransactions.

Honestly these type of games get old after the first couple weeks of playing anyway. I love fighting games don't get me wrong but they never hold my attention much past the that. Same with racers.

Just to see it in glorious HD yes i will. Maybe not right away though. Now how bout a new DK game? Not some remake of an old ass game but all new. Nintendos main monkey has been outta work for far too long.

Definitely cool that they added Bela legosi but it looks kinda generic. Sounds like it's better than most castlevania likes. How does it compare to the two curse of the moon games?

I was 13 years old when this came out. Yikes! Now excuse me while i change my depends. LOL damn time goes by! 😝

Not too worried about the switch version not being as updated as the others. I did just fine playing them the way they were since launch so if i could overlook issues then i don't need improvements now.

Besides the switch can't do 4K so duh they wouldn't add that feature anyway.

Not too worried about the stealth being practically nonexistent. I suck at it in the real games anyway. I'm not a patient gamer. Sounds like a better fit for this cutesy lego version of horizon as kids have little patience too.

Never would have guessed it was her. I always figured suzetta Minet was a real person. Pretty cool! Does Metal gear delta have a release date yet?

Yep! IGN Isn't gonna sway me. They've crapped all over several of my favorite games. Double Dragon neon for example. They said beat em ups were a dead genre. The guy who reviewed it was known to dislike the genre in the first place so why he was assigned the review was beyond me. When every new call of duty comes out it's a guaranteed 8.5 outta 10.

Yeah real trustworthy reviewing there. 😉

@Bigmanfan
Well I'm playing through shadow generations now. It's about as good as the first i suppose. I recently picked up Frontiers on a sale but so far it's not exactly holding my attention. People talk like it's finally 3D sonic done right but i don't think it's quite there.

Let's face it. Sonic hasn't been good since he went 3D and Shadow Generations doesn't feel all that much different than every other 3D Sonic. Yeah maybe in the last decade or so there's been a small handful of decent games. Colors, Generations, and the ones that mimic the early years. That's about it.

Even Frontiers isn't quite right. Some really didn't care for it at all.

Still got my original gold N64 cart that i stood in the rain for two hours on launch day to buy. Original music, red blood and all!

November 26th is not Halloween. Missed opportunity right there. Might wanna correct that title on the article.

Figured this would happen eventually. Now i really need to get back to this series. I've played all the games but never finished them. It's time i put aside other stuff and got these checked off my backlog!

@MrGam3andBu1ld
Well anything better than the condition it was in on Wii should be good enough i think. I swear i though I was playing an early N64 game. Camera was a nightmare.

Wow all the hype about this being so much improved over the original and there's still problems at launch that need patching?

@Mariotag
Yes Ys book 1 and 2 was on the Wii VC!
Sure miss that VC. Now all we got is a glorified Netflix service for games called Nintendo online.
🙁

We need a compilation of at least the first 6 games for NA. I'd like to play the whole series in order but it's confusing the way some are localized and others weren't plus doesn't 4, 5 and 6 have multiple versions or something?

I don't know which versions are Canon and which are more like spinoffs. It's more confusing than the early days of Final fantasy.

Always liked Tooie better than Kazooie. That grunty fight at the end is brutal though. Still trying to talk myself into playing nuts N bolts on my Xbox but haven't quite mustered up the courage to try it yet.

I am so behind on the latest Mario RPG type games. Never finished Mario and luigi bowsers inside story, Dream team, paper Jam or even the 2nd mario rabbids game. Think i better start working on those.

Somehow every Nintendo game in recent memory that's supposedly needed a patch because of a progress impending glitch has slipped right over my head. Had no problem finishing Metroid other M and Skyward sword too and both at launch had this issue that got later patched.

@LavenderShroud
I'm still on the fence about that one. Never bought it because of all the bad reports. Would you say it's mostly in acceptable condition now?

Is this the most patched videogame in history or what? The state of this when it launched must have been awfully bad. At least the developers care enough to fix it this many years after release. Now that's dedication!

Wasn't there a sequel in development?

@VHSGREMLIN
How about when he was singing in the church choir? 😉

That's funny. I was just watching Aliens on Disney plus! "They mostly come out at night, mostly."

Still need to finish the first one. I got a couple hours in and got sidetracked playing other stuff. Still what i played was genuinely terrifying. When the Alien is stalking you and you're desperately looking for a place to hide it's heart pounding!

@Yalloo
I have and yes I'll admit it does noticeably slow down a bit while driving around in the batmobile. It's a small miracle that it runs on switch at all. Good thing i have the PS4 version anyway. 😝

I bet Links awakening on Gameboy had framerate stutters too but i don't recall anyone on the playgrounds at school going, oh that gameboy game is unplayable!

I guess old farts like me don't see games the way the younger generations do. I was just amazed i was playing a videogame in the first place. It was magical when it barely began. Now it's all about the framerate and terraflops. Whatever those are. 😕

I don't think I've ever been bothered enough by framerate in a videogame to write a whole article about it in my entire life. Yeah in Mega man 3 it was kinda annoying during bosses but in Gradius 3 it actually helped.

Other than that no game in my 40+ years of gaming made me say oh God it's unplayable and then proceed to throw my controller across the room in a fit of unbridled rage.
Maybe it's just my age. I started on Atari 2600 after all. We were used to it.

You mean like the MGS 3 remake how it's no longer a Hideo Kojima game? Sad really. End of an Era indeed.

You heard it here folks! If digital foundry has a problem with it, you should too. All hail the framerate sages! May all our Games run at 60 FPS or bust! 😉

If it's really that severe a problem it'll get patched out anyway. Links awakening on switch still stutters a little but if Nintendo thought it was ruining that many people's experience it would have been patched by now. Try being around before patching existed. A game released the way it was and that's the way it stayed. We had to just deal with it.

Oh God here we go again! The Framerate monsters are coming! Run for your lives!
I miss when reviewers talked about everything but the Framerate. You know the story, the characters etc.

I'm here to game people! Not worry about stuff that really isn't going to matter to someone like me who played Mega man 3 on the original Nes choppines and all. Heck Gradius 3 was better because of the framerate drops.

You kids and your tech geekery nonsense. Just play the damn game! 🤦‍♂️

@Teksetter

Must be an age thing. If you're old enough to remember enjoying games when they were simpler and framerate wasn't such an obsession it doesn't bother you. If you grew up in the later generations you're all Graphics this and Framerate that. 😉

@Teksetter

Yes exactly! I'm sure some tech geek will message me back and give me a big rant about how framerate matters but honestly I've been gaming since it's inception and i never gave one dang diddly about it. Sure if the choppyness is so bad the game isn't playable I'll complain but otherwise who cares? Not me.

As expected another great game by Nintendo! I noticed it seems to be getting review bombed at least on YouTube. I guess some people are threatened by the idea of playing as zelda. Oh and what's this fascination reviewers have with framerate? I swear that's such a huge concern all the time and especially in a more slow paced game i don't get it. I don't recall one kid on the playground in the 90s back when Link to the past came out asking about the framerate.

Hell when Ocarina of time came out all the reviews talked about was the graphics, music, story, the fact that it was the first ever fully 3D zelda. No mention whatsoever of framerate.

It's like you guys are going... if the framerate isn't at 100 FPS I'm not buying it! I demand perfection!

In my day we played games if they looked fun, had nice graphics but we weren't whores about it and if it was part of a series we already loved.

Anyway Links awakening on switch got crap about framerate too and you barely notice unless you're really looking for it. I'm sure the same is true here. Just try to have fun and don't sweat the small stuff.

@MeloMan

Nope not yet. Shredder isn't even playable in it aside from a randomized appearance where he's playable in an earlier DLC. The game is probably better than Turtles in time but yeah Mondo Gecko was a nice addition! I barely remember Mona lisa.

Still need the punk frogs. I always wondered which came first, them or the battletoads?

I keep getting pulled away from it while playing other games but since the new dlc update I'm finally gonna hunker down and finish this one. Just wish i was better at parrying attacks. Hope a sequel might be under consideration.

This is why i love Nintendo. They're always thinking of new and exciting ways to expand their existing franchises and make them fresh. Plus they are sticklers for making sure a game is as good as possible before releasing it. Those other companies just crap out the same stuff with slight changes and almost no Innovation. Occasionally they surprise you but not often.

Nintendo is still the king in my opinion. Nomatter what the naysayers say they're keeping gaming fun and entertaining!

Definitely considering getting this. I remember the original game had nice looks and music but they really messed up the camera. Even for the time it released it felt behind the times. It was like playing an N64 game from the early 3D Era. Glad they seemed to have addressed the issue and it's actually not nauseating this time. I was thinking more like not so epic Mickey.

Now i wonder if we'll get a remaster of the sequel but i doubt it.

There better be at least 8 of them. Botw and TOTK each have only 4 propper ones unless i missed something. Heck even Majoras mask only had 4 and that was way before all this Hylians Creed nonsense. What's up with Zelda games lately skimping on the Dungeons? Nintendo running out of ideas for them or something?

@Greatluigi
Yeah didn't Mr. Miyagi say Karate means empty hand? I took Tae Kwon do as a teenager and i know weapons are used there but not Karate as i recall.

Oh just reveal the damn thing already Nintendo! I'm sick of hearing about all these dumb rumors that knowing Nintendo are probably way off.

So we're complaining about no online co op and sound effects? Sounds like you're missing the whole point of the game. It's retro inspired and based on a franchise older than most people who visit this site. I'm guessing it's mostly targeting an older audience who grew up with Karate kid or old school beat em ups. I'm fine with that.

You want online co op go play call of duty or something. It's just not the same playing a beat em up with someone you literally can't even see or that you've never met.

Game looks good enough for my tastes so adding it to my wish list!

What i wanna know is why can't you find the game on Amazon yet? I even checked Nintendos official site and it's sold out. Mind if i ask where people are going to preorder it?

@Spider-Kev
yeah i knew that. I meant the animated movie and it had a time jump. Daniel was the son of spike. Spike was sparkplugs son. Isn't that right?

@MrPeanutbutterz
Yes but nobody expected the SH bomb to be in a kids movie about cars that turn into robots LOL! Many audible gasps were heard. People grabbed their kids and started walking out.

Luckily my mom was cool with it. She really didn't care what i watched or what games i played unless there were boobs or other such naughty parts on display. Plus nobody cared about 8 and 16 bit boobs.

If the SH bomb didn't get People walking out the brutal murder of nearly every autobot 10 minutes into the movie sure did. I heard many angry letters from parents were written.
