This feels like a “no sh**” article lol

@imadeanaccount no, it was never a scam. It was just very short because the developer had to rush it out before the shop closure. He was very open about this as well as his intent to update it post-closure. It’s nice to see he followed through on that promise.

Finally! I thought the game was pretty fun and I’m so happy to see Nintendo actually let him update it.

This is fun. I hope it’s a sign of more updates and dlc. We definitely need more Tails and Knuckles costumes!

“ While the update is unlikely to convince anybody not already sold on the idea of playing games based largely on tech from the late '70s”

Idk about that. I’m more convinced now to try out even more content for free haha

Not what I expected. Pretty weak design, honestly. Maybe some different facial expressions would make her look more menacing? Idk.

Tbh, I’m glad this didn’t happen. Wario and Waluigi work better as a duo, anyway.

@rushiosan I mean some people are more willing to put up with frame rate issues and the like. It is kind of subjective on your personal tolerance for that kinda thing.

If I didn’t have this already on other systems, I’d give it a shot. But there’s no reason to have this if you have other options.

Pokemon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire was goated! I played the absolute heck out of that as a kid on my GBA. I wouldn’t mind a new entry in that series tbh

Still can’t believe I used to binge Netflix on my 3DS lol

I have a lot of fondness for my Wii U too. These days I rarely use it, but I do enjoy playing some Virtual Console GBA games on the pad.

@NintendoWife fair enough. I have not listened to comparisons on the music, but I could see how some would prefer one over the other. Personally, music won’t make one version better or worse for me, but I know others value music in games more.

@HugoGED never said I didn’t like the original, but what part of the original is better than the remake? The “feel” of it? That just seems like nostalgia for the old graphics.

The Switch version is a faithful remake so I just don’t see what was lost that would make the original rate higher if we’re being objective on the overall game quality. If we’re talking about which game is better for the time it was released, then sure, the SNES version is groundbreaking and an important game. But by 2023 standards, if you were going to recommend a game to someone, it would be the Switch version.

@-wc- what part of the original is better than the remake? Honest question. What’s so great about the SNES version that’s missing from the remake?

@HugoGED you honestly think anyone would look at a clip of the SNES version and a clip of the remake and say that the SNES looks better? Get out of here lol

@HugoGED are we rating these off historical significance or actual game quality? Because sure, the original SNES rpg is an important game, but the remake improves upon the original in every way.

@mariomaster96 yeah, these ratings are just a popularity contest. I mean objectively how is the original SNES version of Mario RPG higher than the remake? Absurd lol

Nostalgia is strong, huh?

Getting really tired of this retro collection trend of making them as slim as possible. Something like this does not deserve to be split up into multiple volumes. Absolutely ridiculous.

Thanks for narrowing down that list!

The asking price is just too much for what you get. Definitely something I’ll check out on a sale, but I have no strong nostalgia for these games to convince me this is worth the money.

Lmao, who’s giving this an “abysmal”

Oh I am so ready!

You really have to ask on the weekend Super Mario RPG came out?

I’m not missing this one. I’ve been wanting to play this game forever and this seems like a great way to finally do it.

Gonna be honest, not the kind of game I was expecting from that title lol

I feel like it’ll end up mostly being Breath of the Wild. Either that or something original that pulls from the same general story almost every Zelda game has lol

About what I expected. I’ll still probably try this on sale though lol

Reading some of these comments and I realize I don’t appreciate casting directors enough lmao

Don’t you dare diss my boy Funky Kong!

My gut feeling is that it won’t be good lol. But I’ll try to have a positive and open mind until we see anything about it.

@anothergamer100 so buy this for PS5 instead? Got it lol

@PersianZSR at the bottom of the statement, it says DLC will still be available to purchase. I think @Fighting_Game_Loser is correct though that it probably has to do with the music license.

What an odd decision to leave the dlc purchasable but remove the main game. I don’t understand that at all.

These last couple months have been brutal on my backlog lol. Another to add to the wishlist

I know a few games have had cross-play, but do any of them work well with the Switch?

It does make you wonder if this would’ve had more success as a paid game with either free or paid dlc down the line. There’s just too many f2p games as it is, so I feel like it’s hard to carve out an audience and take them away from other f2p games.

You’re welcome!

I don’t know how I feel about this quiz lol

Shy Guy Bazaar is such a fun theme, I wish that one got included

I still log into Mario Run daily to get platinum coins, so I was surprised to see that update. Of course, they added nothing, but it’s still nice to see them remember that the game exists every now and then

This is the best news about this game so far! The first game was a good start, but it desperately needed single player modes.

@XiaoShao yes, LRG did tease a physical 3DS game after the shop closed. No idea what it’s going to be, though.

@Nool I’m with you. I hate how it seems like a segment of the community will always pick out some small thing to complain about. Doesn’t matter how good the game is, they will always find something and it ends up blowing up into articles like this or ones with some misleading headline that makes it seem as if all gamers dislike a thing. It creates a false perception that the community at large doesn’t like something when, as the poll results clearly show in this case, the author is in the clear minority here.

A sequel is just going to have to be different. That was always going to be the problem (if you can even call it a problem) with Ultimate, it was too big and too definitive that it’ll be hard to surpass the scope.

@Nool honestly some of the soapbox takes are so out there, I’m convinced they’re just engagement bait. I guess it got me to click so, working as intended lol

Gamers try not to get annoyed by a cute side character challenge. Impossible.

This seems like a necessity to preserve DS/3DS games. You just lose something in a lot of games by making it single screen so, this makes me hopeful for getting some awesome ports or remakes in the future.

Honestly it’s better that way. Free-to-play monetization makes a game like this not very fun, imo.

I’m down for some classic arcade games I never heard of lol
