The family wants Switch Sports, but with the WiiU NEVER leaving my living room TV and a gaggle of Wiimotes.... Not sure I see the point. TBH, though, I WAS actually waiting for Basketball, lol, as it was my favorite addition to RESORT.

SOLAR JETMAN and COBRA TRIANGLE are legit additions. With all the Rare love lately, I'm thinking we may get DK64 this Christmas for the 25th anniversary. Maybe some DIDDY KONG RACING???

Club Nintendo was great and even leading into the WiiU/3DS era rewards were fantastic. I remember getting the Hanafunda cards and the giant 3DS '?' card. Later, I was able to redeem points for DK: TF and Warioware on WiiU. The current loyalty program is a shadow of what used to be offered.

@LadyCharlie
I was thinking the same thing. Servers allowing, say, 60 to a 100 drivers all dodging eachother and fighting over fares. The map better be huge, but if done right I'm down. Hopefully the original will be included as an unlockable.

They are all kind of "meh." Went with NA as it was the one I was most likely to grab off the shelf and look at the back to find out more.

@AtlanteanMan
I'm a big fan of CRISIS VRIGADE. Downloaded it through SideQuest.

I think about this a lot. I feel like any more PS4/5 era titles should wait for S2. I am pretty surprised we have not received FALLOUT 3 / NEW VEGAS by this point. I would love if Ubisoft brought PoP 2008 over. EA would have cleaned up with BAD COMPANY 1/2, MIRROR'S EDGE, and DEAD SPACE. Konami could have easily brought over LORDS OF SHADOW 1 & 2 as well. As for KIRBY'S EPIC YARN.... Wait for S2 so we can have it in glorious 4K/60; those graphics deserve it.

CONAN!?!?!? FREAKIN' CO-NAN!!!!!?????? WHY ARE YOU FORCING ME TO BUY THIS?????

Okay, okay, okay. Now we just need ROGUE SQUADRON... But by Nightdive.... ; )

$50.00 USD at most. I just don't understand Nintendo price gouging for this title.

This is what a video game by Salvidor Dhali would look like....

Thank you for making this day that much more magical. I would love to give this a go! Simply brilliant!!

This was also my number one announcement. It's been so hard to get these officially!!! I never thought it would happen. This is a pre-order physical for me; easily.

I only voted for CONKER. TBH, the six games I am wanting now on the N64 service is this, BODY HARVEST, TETRISPHERE, DIDDY KONG RACING, DK 64, and ROGUE SQUADRON. I mean, sure, I would take NO MERCY, MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, CASTLEVANIA 64, and WETRIX as well (the latter two being most likely). But, with them already having WINBACK, PERFECT DARK, GOLDENEYE, and BLAST CORPS on there it's already pretty slammin'!

@LikelySatan
The roster, backgrounds, and music are all better!

@tourjeff
The original Capcom Vs. SNK was a staple in my friends' Dreamcast rotation. And then 2 on the GCN continued. Gotta say, the first one edges it out for me. At first I thought we were getting that collection when watching the Direct!

@Yosher
The loveliness of region-free Switch gaming. I have (oddly enough) MARVEL ULTIMATE ALLIANCE 3's UK edition and FF PIXEL REMASTER from Japan. Both run flawlessly on my NA Switch. Just order it from the U.S.

This is all I wanted. To have these games safe on a cartridge format is priceless to me. It's the same reason I double-dipped with digital and then Limited-Run physical copies of CASTLEVANIA: ADVANCE COLLECTION and the CONTRA ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION.

It will obviously be cross-gen with Switch2. However, I do hope it just runs better and has some bells-and-whistles for the new system. Still holding out for backwards compatibility.

Great.... #FearsRealized lol

I'm really loving all of these licensed beat-em-ups we're getting. I would put this at the top of the hype list, with Toxic Crusaders next, and finally G.I. Joe. There is something that feels off about Joe, but I hope I'm wrong...

Voted American. Was following it's development pretty closely. I had enough money to pick up one game over the holidays and I wanted it to take advantage of the Expansion Pak. I got to Target and stared back and forth at this and ROGUE SQUADRON. The 'coolness' of Turok won out. Until I got home. I had rented ROGUE SQUADRON and loved it, but was so enamored with the first Turok and all of the previews with Iguana about 2, that I figured it would be a slam dunk. Great graphics and soundtrack. Misguided level design and objectives. I ended up selling it.

@Chibi_Manny
Legit.

The Direct should have been this last Tuesday at the latest in order for this time of year to come close to feeling like E3. IGN published an article about how this year really felt like E3 again. I call BS. Without a more unified schedule for the big presentations it will not feel like E3 week again. And TBH, I feel Microsoft takes it seriously every year. So while this particular presentation was packed with hits, it still continues Microsoft's 'claim' of valuing gamer culture. They still know how to bring the hype.

I feel like a new 3D Mario would be the Switch 2's launch title with Metroid Prime 4 being the big fall release. However, it might also be the big swan song we've been waiting for on the current hardware. If we see nothing at this Direct, then development has almost certainly been moved to the new system.

@YourDaddy
Capcom needs to get off their butts and announce KILLER 7!!!

@YourDaddy
For real. And where is the Lollipop Chainsaw remake???

I was just thinking how much I would love VIEWTIFUL JOE and KILLER 7 on Switch. Just give me those, XENOBLADE CHRONICLES X HD, and F-ZERO X HD. Pretty please....

It was pretty ho-hum. Some really nice indie stuff, but mostly stuff we already knew about. I feel the biggest shows this week will be MICROSOFT and NINTENDO. Maybe Ubisoft will bring it and really surprise us (BG&E2 and SoT:Remake please). I think MICROSOFT will show a new handheld. With them so focused on streaming and the success of the Switch and Steam Deck' it seems like a no-brainer.

It's sitting in my cart right now. Simply want it for the physical collection.

The first one was one of my first eshop downloads for the Switch. It's good, but definitely brutal. You gotta be on your $#!%. Total trial & error platforming action!

For PS4 games on my PS5 I always favor Performance mode. For the Switch 2, I would rather have a resolution boost for the bulk of my Switch 1 titles. Games like SWITCHER 3 could really benefit from it.

Just spent a couple hours with it. Taking into account the type of game it is, I would give it a 7. Controls really well, different classes are fun, and it runs good on Switch. The menus are atrocious; really feels like a constant bombardment of "upgrade this with $$$," but that's to be expected. For a free game it's not too shabby; especially if you just want to roll a few quick rounds.

I really do miss E3. The mid-2000s were a magical time with G4 coverage and all of the great anticipation surrounding the stage presentations of the Big 3. Man... It's so different now. At least Microsoft still puts on a decent show with Nintendo typically doing a Direct and TreeHouse Live. I've actually been digging Gamescom the last few years as well.

With the way remasters and the download scene is now, I really feel 3 console generations is where it's at. The Wii is just BARELY retro. I would say the GCN, PS2, and XBOX era is Retro at this point with the Wii/360/PS3 era right on the cusp.

HOLY CRAP!!! I don't remember this at all!!! I would have downloaded this before the eshop closures.... : (

$39.00 USD to $49.00 USD is the right price point for re-releases like KIRBY: RETURN TO DREAMLAND DLX and LUIG'S MANSION 2 as they are more recent releases. I can understand TTYD being around $60.00 USD as it's basically a "from-the-ground-up" remake of a 20-year-old game. Of course, I think Princess Peach: Showtime should have been $50.00 USD so there's that too.

Temple of Time from OoT, Link on the open seas from WW, Lon Lon Ranch from OoT. Oh, and the entire overworld map from the original TLoZ.

DOOM 2016 and ETERNAL are my two favorite "impossible ports." I remember playing DOOM 2016 on the Switch after receiving it for Christmas and literally being blown away. It really showed that this little system could push some great ports and compete with the big boys.

As I cast my vote it sits at 50/50! Fantastic! They really are both great covers, but with this series I want to see the crew of adventurers. One vote for Europe!

The heck with COD..... EA need to pull their head out of their @$$3$ and port BATTLEFIELD: BAD COMPANY to Switch with full multiplayer support. That game was the last realistic war-shooter I had a lot of fun with.

The first one was a blast. Really great level flow and design. I will definitely be picking this one up.

@NinjaNicky
Legit.

There has been so much 2D love lately across the board from the Big N. While I think the DK Retro games are the pinnacle of the genre in many respects, I would love to see a 3D adventure with swinging and mine kart shenanigans. Kirby had a great mix of smaller levels in 3D, DK could thrive in the same way.

Both are not very good. Chose the EU one as it says "adventure" to me with Aiai bounding towards us.

@Truegamer79
I was also in High School and it just blew my mind how bad it was; especially after how well the first movie set up a sequel. The hype was real! It really did tank the idea of video game movies. Then Uwe Boll came along and made it even worse!

@Serpenterror
Not a fan of RE, but man yes, DOA is exactly what it needed to be. I've watched parts of TEKKEN and it looked good. Was there opening night for DETECTIVE PICKACHU and it's pretty solid too. Need to check out FATAL FRAME!

@Truegamer79
We walked out of the theater and one of my friends declares "I think that was better than thr first one!!!" My jaw dropped, I lost it... "It was a bunch of really shifty music videos just stitched together!" Probably the worst movie ever made, all things considered.

@NeonPizza
MK 1995 is the best video game adaptation. (Sonic flicks are pretty close.) HEY, I just remembered there's a MONSTER HUNTER movie!
