Yes please I love these games but I haven't touched my 3ds much since I got the switch.

@Krisi I snagged Arms for free with a buy 2 get one deal for used games at Gamestop today. I'm loving the game so far. The badges are a whole lot of fun to collect. I played Co-op Grand Prix with my wife and had a lot of fun. Thanks for the suggestion!

I loved the first expansion I'm excited to try this too. This game was just really well done overall.

This is amazing! I could have seen these coming eventually but I'm so glad it's actually happening.

@YamAsereht These are pretty cool and worth announcing the the public. It looks like it's Japan only so this is one of few ways to get it in the US/UK. It is news and I'm glad they posted this.

Nintendo games never drop in price. My hopes of getting this on the cheap for black friday died fruitlessly. I'll just have to wait until I have more funds to buy this gem.

This is both very cool and very crazy. Sega really is embracing their fans with this game.

@YANDMAN This game is worthy of a physical as far as quality goes, but the truth is that unless they included the DLC characters somehow it just wouldn't be worth it from a ease of access standpoint. If they released a physical version that was just the base game then the DLC wouldn't be able to move between two systems easily. That alone defeats the purpose of a physical version. Besides the game is tiny file size wise it wouldn't even come close to filling a cartridge. It's cheap enough it's worth the digital buy.

I love this game! I'm sure this new mode will be exciting to play. I wonder if all the characters are available without the dlc? Doesn't matter though as I've been there since day one and I got them all for free.

@Pazuzu666 Everheard of recycling? It's all the rage these days.

@Agramonte It's more like a cousin really. Sure it's a 'box' and it has 'loot' but it's a one time purchase that I can use again and again multiple times and across multiple games. Actual lootboxes are one time use purchases unlike amiibos. Amiibos are more akin to a 'season pass' for dlc across multiple games.

Retro arch would be amazing! But I don't have a switch that is running on or under that firmware .

I want this game now with all its post launch dlc. I don't want to pay more than $30 for it though.

I got this one day one and I've actually really enjoyed it. I feel like the player character walks a little too fast, and sure battles can be a little simple sometimes. But! I have very much enjoyed the story and I've actually recommended this game to friends before this review.

If you likeJRPG's you should give this one a go.

@BlueEyedViper Decap Attack was my favorite as a kid!

Mummy De-mastered looks awesome. Need more time and money to fit all these games that keep coming out.

6/10 is lower than I expected. I've got over 100 hours clocked on this with the Japanese version both playing alone and with friends. I loved it so much we bought it again to play through in english. I'd easily have given it a 7/8 as to me this is easily one of the best local multiplayer games on Switch right now.

@crackafreeze Glad I'm not the only one who thought that.

@GrailUK @link3710 Your welcome. I bought the game on the US eshop and then thought to try updating the Japanese version. I was excited when I saw it update thinking it might update to include english. Sadly that wasn't the case. I took the bullet for those who weren't sure.

All the same I'm having fun playing the beginning of the game again.

The transparency artifacts on the second mini game are very distracting. Other than that it looks awesome.

@link3710 @GrailUK @Logen I own both the physical Japanese copy of the game and the US english Eshop game. The Japanese copy recieved an update today when this version released that updated it to 1.1 like the english game. Sadly though the game did not update to include english language. It's still japanese only. Also the english copy of the game did not load the save file from the japanese game so I had to start over to play in english.

Hope this helps.

@dAvecaster I played Samus Returns without any amiibo and I fully enjoyed it. I honestly didn't feel like I was missing out on anything. There's really no reason to not enjoy a game you'd like. You're really only hurting yourself.

Man I guess DeathSquared should have waited to do their sale.

@Hughesy It's actually a lot of fun. Each dungeon has different tilesets for each floor so they end up having variety in appearance. But then each different dungeon you unlock by clearing one also has even more tilesets that are unique to each dungeon you unlock so the game always has something new to look at. Each dungeon also has lots of new enemies so they don't repeat too often.

I've played this game a ton. I just can't seem to put it down. Even when I die and lose all my progress there still always seems to be time for 'just one more floor" before bed. I highly recommend this game to anyone even remotely interested.

THIS. IS. KILLING. ME.

Man I have been checking Chucklefish and Tiyuri's twitter hourly ever since I saw this announcement. I'm desperately want this game on the Switch. It's approved... So give it to me now pretty please!

I bought this one when it released on the Japanese Eshop (it included english already) I was able to get this new and improved version with all dlc for the price of all the DLC I hadn't bought on the PS3 version. It's a double dip that I've enjoyed so far. But it is mostly the same game so I can understand why some people might skip it.

I almost didn't watch this video because of the stupid stuff people were complaining about. Honestly if the stuff about him telling Charles Martinet to Shut Up or that he complains about things a lot is true then well yeah that stuff would be things to avoid. But this video itself was actually really nice content wise. I loved the ideas shared here and the artwork the he made was really well done.

I absolutely adore this game! I gather friends and family together to play 4 player co-op of the Japanese version all the time. We've spent over 100 hours playing this together on Switch. Now that's some multiplayer fun!

I really really really hope that this game will auto-update to allow english play. I've already bought the game once and I don't want to buy it again just to play with english. (most the UI is easy to navigate in Japanese anyway because there's so many icons and such to tell what things are.)

I want to play in english but not at the cost of losing over 100 hours of progress on the Japanese version. Please Square Enix let me continue my party from where it left off!

@Thierry usually that's how it is yes. Most likely though you will be able to call and provide information that shows you're the owner of the account and then they'll reset it for you.

@MasterWario Yeah I don't want to lock myself outta my 'house' if you will. I'll stick to just passwords because it's already plenty of protection. Especially we change our password ever now and then. Not to mention having to use an app just makes logging in that little bit more tedious. I'd rather not have the annoyance.

@crackafreeze I'm like you and I don't want any of the annoyance of using this. Good old fashion complex passwords is plenty of protection as far as I'm concerned.

@Exy I get why people feel it's important to use this kind of protection but I feel that it's more annoying than helpful. I'm of the opinion that it's very unlikely someone will hack my Nintendo account. So I don't want the extra annoyance. I'm glad this isn't forced.

I hope the eshop game also receives the tv mode update. I'm not sure how it will control, maybe they'll change the notes to button icons? But even so I'd just love to be able to play the music out my surround sound speakers while playing on the TV.

@AlbertXi I've had zero issue with the batteries on the snes30 and the nes30pro. These things last forever. I charge them once a week if they get lots of use. Not sure what damage you're talking about.

@machomuu thank you. Your good hand rests joke got a good laugh outta me.

On-topic: I've had a lot of fun with this game. I usually go for perfect scores, but it's nice that they're not required for the puzzle that might be harder.

When I saw these I thought it was a Namco Museum like collection. But its actually just like the Neogeo games. Sadly they're priced exactly the same as those Neogeo games ( $7.99 on the US eshop and they're 6.29 gbp on the UK eshop).

$8 for King of Fighters felt like a steal. That same $8 for the Mario Bros arcade original just feels like I'm getting conned. I'd have done $4, but they're such simple games for the price they're asking. =/

I'm so excited for this! I wish it'd come stateside.

League of Legends is that you? Even the art style looks the same. The purple demon chick looks like Illidan from Warcraft.

@Reggie: I'd love to buy one at that price. How about I actually see them on store shelves... Eh?

@Kalmaro haha you must really like this site. You're almost always first to comment. Are you subscribed to some service that notifies you when a new article is posted? Something like that would be very useful.

I love this game! I think it's a lot of fun, but ever since I bought Mario Kart 8 DX I can't convince anyone to play it with me anymore. They all say it's too hard. I just tell them that it just is more skill based.

Either way I'm excited for the new tracks!

@LaVelle Yeah the fact that they wouldn't reverse the change after universal mass disapproval was just mind boggling. I think I've only played the game once since that whole thing went down. Maybe subconsciously I lost interest in the game because they didn't care what players thought... Or maybe I just got plenty more games on Switch to play now...

@Kalmaro I would use Miiverse's ability to post screenshots on Wii and 3DS to have pictures of my favorite areas and such easily accessible on my phone or PC. If Miiverse is discontinued, any official means of saving screenshots on either system will be defunct as well.

Well I guess the people who wanted Mario Maker on Switch can be satisfied for now with this.

Bye bye easy screenshots...

I love this! I'd definitely enjoy playing this.

@chardir I was thinking the same thing. A little narration and maybe some video editing to cut the failed attempts would have gone a long way.

A tripod would have been helpful too.

@bezerker99 Glad I wasn't the only one.

The title of this article "eShop Selects" made me think it was announcing either a sale or physical retail releases of eShop games like the Wii U got.

Well mine did eventually get canceled. I got an email saying it was coming sooner than October sometime in September, then a few hours later I got a cancellation email. Pretty lame if you ask me.

@KO-Cub you do k ow that it only cost $40 in the U.S. region right?

Mine hasn't been canceled yet. I'm crossing my fingers that it won't be. It's unlikely to stay though. No email yet...

I almost want to buy one just for the game storage inside it. Plus the charging grip is a nice feature too.

Amazon US and Walmart are both saying they're sold out. Did I miss them opening orders?
