@poyo_pie I think that one of the main problems is that it was meant to be a cartoon for kids, not for real old fans. And even then, serious cartoon movies for kids exists, like Studio Ghibli's full length anime movies.
@Skunkfish 1. Files compression is a thing.
2. It's a football sim.
3. It's a Nintendo Switch 2 game.
4. How it can have the file size of 68GB!?
Even Cyberpunk is fully on cartridge! Think about it.
Lol, what a joke. This is why I don't care about online in video games, play, and pay for them only for the single-player content. Shall I remind you that online multiplayer in Luigi's Mansion 3 is a paid DLC, and even then, you need NSO subscription to play it online, lol.
@Coffee-Waffle «I embarrassingly have not played the Neo-geo collection, would you recommend it?» Only NEOGEO POCKET COLOR ones. Steam version of the 1st volume is superior to console versions – it has one exclusive racing game that is unavailable in other versions.
@Coffee-Waffle Previous volumes were released for Switch 1 too. If you're looking for fighting games there, do not care about them. Better play PS2 versions, that were released as part of NEO•GEO ONLINE COLLECTION and SAMURAI SPIRITS ANTHOLOGY. There are few rare exceptions however. Like, there's no that much difference between NEO•GEO and console versions of Garō: Mark of the Wolves. Though, Dreamcast version had some issues, if I'm not mistaken.
«I wish Nintendo would do this instead of online subscription crap.» Sadly, days of Virtual Console are long gone now. 😔
@Thomystic Yeah, lol. It's not that bad as long as characters plays differently and difficulty is right... Which cannot be said about Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game beat 'em up, for example, sadly.
@IceClimbersMain SVC Chaos, back in July? 🤔 @OwenGamer22 Fightcade is about «arcade-perfect» and competitive multiplayer experience, from what I've heard and seen. I don't care about these things. I rather console ports in most cases. Playable sub-bosses, bosses, console exclusive playable characters, extra single-player modes, arranged soundtrack... Yeah, that's what I'd like to have. @Chocobo777 Type Lumina is worse than MBAACC in more things. Count in roster, plot, seiyūs cast, characters' design. And, sadly, Type Lumina is an unfinished game, thanks to Nasu himself. F/GO Servants were wasted slots, while Artoria Saber was an expected and boring choice. I've beaten F/sn last year. Shirō Emiya (UBW route), Medusa Rider, Herakles Berserker, Sōichirō Kuzuki, even Shinji Matō himself would be a more interesting and funny pick, lol.
@Chocobo777 And?
MBAACC is a thing, it's a better game, and a real Melty Blood. Also, Tsukihime remake itself is trash. It's one of the reasons why Type Lumina is unworthy of a Melty Blood title.
@IceClimbersMain As it is now, CotW is a kusoge, in a bad meaning of this word. Guest characters are wasted slots (KOF exists for this thing), Higashi with Andy are disappointing picks. Mr. Big is the only one cool addition there. Like, the last time he was playable was back in... KOF XI? Lol. Ronaldo and Salvatore are nonsense. No Freeman and Kim Jae Hoon in the base roster is a crime.
@OwenGamer22 Skullgirls has one hell of a history and controversies, lol. The game died for me after the second biggest censorship update. UNI2 is a peak among the current, overwhelmingly disappointing fighting games. Type Lumina is unfinished and doesn't deserve to be called a Melty Blood game. I've bought it before Cloudflare/Amazon servers throttling in my country. It's kinda sad that it's one of the last games that I was able to buy digitally on Switch... I can't even redownload the already purchased ones. 😡 As for the other fighting games... I want CHAOS CODE sequel and Daraku Tenshi: The Fallen Angels Revenge to see the light of the day, but it seems like they either stuck in development hell or aren't in developer's priorities. 😔 And, yeah, I want to see more ports and collections of old fighting games. Most modern ones are too much disappointing and don't give that much hope for the bright future of the genre.
@Ooyah Yeah, pixel graphics in point-and-click games is an art. Full Throttle, Day of the Tentacle, Wadjet Eye Games's quests, Kathy Rain, Whispers of a Machine, The Lion's Song, Beneath a Steel Sky...
@JohnnyMind @roy130390 @NintendoJunkie The problem is, they are riding on nostalgia too much. Imagine telling someone years ago, during SFV and TEKKEN 7 days, that Vega (Dictator) and Heihachi will become PAID DLC characters?
TEKKEN 8's Season Passes are TEKKEN 7's DLC characters reuse (Fahkumram, Lidia) and base roster playable characters turned into paid DLC ones (Eddy, Heihachi, Armor King).
SF6 has paid DLC Gōki, Sagat, Vega (Dictator), Ed, Rashid...
Garō Densetsu: City of the Wolves is a joke of a joke. Real people guest characters in the base roster, no Freeman and Kim Jae Hoon, Jyō Higashi and Andy Bogard as first DLC characters.
Guest DLC characters became a plague now. Old franchises have too much not used 'cause unplayable/underused characters to spend slots on some guests bs.
They just keep recycling the same characters as DLC ones twice and trice in a row.
That's why I highlight UNI2 so much – it has new playable characters in the Season Pass. No DLCs twice/trice in a row, no base roster characters turned into DLC ones. All characters from the first game are in the roster. Also, Season Pass costs just 10$USD. 10 bucks for 3 new playable characters, or 20/25 bucks for shameless reused DLC characters?
@JohnnyMind Nah. CAPCOM's, NAMCO's, SNK's, and ASW's DLC practices and current fighting games are trash if compared to the old ones.
Literally the only one current fighting game worth getting and praise is UNDER NIGHT IN-BIRTH II [Sys:Celes].
As much as I hate modern corporations, CAPCOM including...
MVC Collection is the best one so far, and the only one worth getting legally.
Norimaro is one of the best joke characters in fighting games history.
I'd like to give it a 1,5/10, but since I can't do it... 1/10. Needless remake of Super Danganronpa 2? Check. Needless and censored remake of Project Zero II? Check. I don't care about Super Mario and Nintendo exclusives announcements.
I wonder if Super Mario Galaxy (and 2) will be fully playable in handheld mode this time. I mean, other Wii ports like No More Heroes, Skyward Sword, Sonic, Xenoblade, are fully playable in handheld mode without shenanigans. But, knowing how lazy Nintendo are... I doubt it. Also, where are Metroid Prime 2 and 3 remasters?!
God, that English voice-over... Kyle Crane in Dying Light sounds perfect, especially if compare him to characters speaking in 9 requiem trailer. If I'll ever play 9 requiem, it will happen only with the Japanese voice-over ON.
Lol. What an unexpected thing to happen. At least, I got it before on eShop for... 6,24 or 6,74$USD. Still, it's sad that it didn't receive PC port. @Tyranexx Well, it's weaker than the 2nd game, but still not bad. Or even good... Some consider it to be the second best game in the series, after Second Story. And yeah, it's the first game in the series. Original game was released simply as Star Ocean, on Super Famicom. Later, it got remake (subtitled First Departure) on PSP, with the new seiyūs cast. And in the end, it got a remaster (First Departure R) on Switch and PS4. This version has new recorded voice lines from the Super Famicom original cast, dual audio option, and both PSP and Super Famicom seiyūs cast to choose from. 😃
@sixrings Erm... Irony is, 30FPS always will be a standard for consoles, not PC. And there are games that require 60FPS for the minimal comfortable gameplay, especially if talking about online multiplayer. @johnedwin I remember playing GGXX#R with 30FPS on Windows. It was a terrible experience.
Android/iOS aren't listed as gaming platforms, as expected. 😎
Jokes aside, NETFLIX and Crunchyroll subscriptions are saving gaming on Android, and I appreciate it. NETFLIX and Crunchyroll do what Google don't, ironically.
Also, visual novels aren't listed as genre option. 😢

Re: Feature: Ghosts 'n Goblins Hit Arcades 40 Years Ago, And Its Recent Resurrection Is The Perfect Way To Celebrate

Re: Feature: Ghosts 'n Goblins Hit Arcades 40 Years Ago, And Its Recent Resurrection Is The Perfect Way To Celebrate
I prefer Chyōmakaimura (Super Ghouls 'n' Ghosts) on SNES.
I'm not against cartoon graphics/style, but Resurrection looks unappealing.
