Ultimapunch

It should be "RPD-lightful," not "RPD-elightful." It could also have been "RP-Delightful."

Wind Waker HD is also no longer available. So there's also that.

I saw "Rayman Returns" and got so excited thinking it was the name to a Rayman Legends sequel. But alas. The earth is blue and there is no God.

Nobody would have actually been upset if a third fighter pass had happened. Well. Maybe Sakurai would have been.

I need my Rayman fix. And this will have to do. I'm glad it sounds like it's solid, even if it isn't earth shattering. I'll take it.

OG all day. But the 3d version is basically a perfect Hard Mode of the game if that's what you're interested in. I prefer the original pixel look and definitely prefer the original SNES and Pixel Remaster versions of the music to the DS version. In my opinion the music by far the weakest part of the DS one. But if you want more of a challenge the DS version is perfect for that.

Whenever I'm babysitting I put Bluey on and won't let the kids change the channel.

I'm really pulling for this to be good. It could be a nice treat to fill the void that has been present in my soul since Rayman Legends never got a sequel.

@Corvus96 You got the rosiest tinted glasses ever my dude.

Ugh. At least put the Switch version of Link's Awakening. Nobody is having fun playing the GB version in 2023.

Was about to come on here to complain about everything. Then I saw that number 1 was the correct answer. Good job peeps.

Yikes to all the F Zero X delusionals. Even Barry Goldwater coming in 10 points ahead of it.

Depends. Mario 1 and 2, NES all the way. World, SNES is the only true option. Mario 3, GBA all the way.

Yo that's so dope. I've always wanted to give the series a shot but they're all either incredibly expensive, or never have been localized. I want Haunting Ground to get rereleased so badly too.

My gas almost doubled in fiscal year ended in March.

Meh. If affirmative action for race is gone now it may as well be for sex too. Ever stop to think that maybe the potential female candidates just aren't as good as the people who get the job?

The Metaverse is gonna go down as the biggest prospector bubble burst ever. It ain't ever gonna be a thing. Companies can't even get their 2d websites to function.

Exclusives on consoles are about 90% of the actual good games being made today. Also, of course Xbox would say that. They haven't had good exclusives on their systems since 2005.

It's 2023. Backwards compatibility should come standard on all systems from now on.

He's not entirely wrong. Nintendo's core audience like real video games. And COD ain't been a real video game for well over a decade.

@Mauzuri Hey. At least he's in Super Mario Party....

Having a plain old Piranha Plant would be my number one. Petey will have to do though.

Summer Games Fest is now the E3 successor. Just like E3 succeeded CES for video games. When a phoenix dies a new one is born from the ashes.

F Zero 21xx and Paper Mario 3 incoming!!!

This will probably be the closest we ever get to a Rayman Legends sequel.

Welp. Guilty until proven innocent it is then.

It's a Ubisoft game. Guilty until proven innocent.

Is this made by the people that made Sonic Mania? If not then I will treat it as bad until proven good.

Anyone saying either of the GB versions is the best got mad rose tinted glasses on.

You gotta consider whether each iteration wears pants or not. You gotta remember that most of them are just free-ballin'.

If it were Hytule that'd be excusable. But Hyland? That's pretty bad.

At this rate NSO will be shut down before the Switch's successor is even out. I sure am glad Virtual Console doesn't exist anymore. All ya'll who passed on the Wii U back in the day will be sorry when NSO shuts down and I can still play Ocarina of Time and Super Metroid.

If an open world Zelda also had like 11 Twilight Princess quality dungeons in it it would actually be the best game ever made by quite a bit.

We're actually gonna get Half Life and Portal 3 before we get a sequel to this game. I don't trust Ubisoft to stick the landing at this point anyway.

The sad thing about this is that it would actually be so cool if it were true.....

I'd rather they just print enough copies.

I'd get it if Nintendo would let me.

RE4 All day. And Super Metroid.

@Arkay I'm making a joke in reference to Polygon's dumpster fire review of Bayonetta 3.

Yeah. But They made her straight. How am I supposed to enjoy a video game when the main female character is straight????

Oh no. It's on NSO. What a disappointment. Watch, in a few years licenses will expire and it'll be stripped from the service.

Hate them all. Paying for online was always a scam and still is. You can thank Microsoft for pioneering that extortion scheme. And locking games behind a subscription service without the option to purchase outright is paying for a product you don’t get to keep. When those services shut down in 5 to 10 years, all those games will be inaccessible. Like when the Wii u eshop will close only you don’t even get to play the games you’ve downloaded.

The only thing Nintendo should learn from Xbox is that they should make their legacy content available for purchase. Nothing else. If the 3ds and Wii u had game pass, all of their games would become completely unavailable in a year’s time. Thankfully we’ll still be able to play downloaded games even after the shops close. With every company wanting a subscription based future we have unfortunately already passed the time of widest game availability. In 10 years when NSO closes all those NES and SNES games will be unplayable. And when Xbox game pass dies some day all of those games will escape availability to those subscribers. I can still play my 1991 cart of Sonic 1. Game pass ain’t got nothing on that. And never ever will in a million years. Because even then my cart of Sonic 1 will still probably exist.

“I’m sure you’ll understand” should be Nintendo’s new motto.

Pixel Remasters on Switch or bust.

Yeah. Nintendo shutting down the eshop wouldn’t be a big deal if they did very simple things. Like 1: making all of their virtual console games available on Switch. All of them. Immediately. We just got Majora’s Mask 5 years into the Switch’s life. That’s embarrassing. Especially when N64 roms and emulation has existed in quality form since the gamecube days. And 2: making it so that libraries, and nonprofit organizations dedicated to game preservation can more easily preserve their past titles without constant legal threats and action being taken against them by Nintendo. It isn’t just shutting down the old shops that makes people peeved at Nintendo. It’s that they seem to have overt contempt for any and all actions to preserve their past titles.

In the world of cross platform play. This is just embarrassing. Nintendo wants to do everything it can to keep negative press around its name lately what with the erasure of legacy eshops and now this. Nintendo’s doing its predictable pendulum swing towards being an anti-consumer gluttonous slob after 5 years of success with the Switch. After their next inevitable failure they’ll have to relearn to be a decent company that treats its customers with value. This happened in the late years of the Wii, then the Wii u was a huge bomb. They had to relearn how to get happy customers, just so they can become big headed again until their big headedness pushes away customers. Rinse and repeat ad nauseam. Sony’s in a similar spot after the success of the Ps4.

Absolutely true. But let’s not pretend it would have been possible without the orbital massive impact its predecessor had. Ocarina of Time is unquestionably a masterpiece and one of the most important, significant, revolutionary, enjoyable, and truly classic games every made. Majora is better though.

That would actually be the objectively best thing ever.
