@PinderSchloss Totally agree with the characters comment, that's just silly. It would of been better to have it's own identity to match its visual aesthetic.
Looks interesting, but it would of been better with completely different characters, also I'm not sold on the production values, the player ship looks floaty and awkward at points, like it doesn't control correctly. More than happy to be wrong though.
@Thomystic Have you played it? It's literally nothing like Contra. Yes, it shares a similar Mega Drive colour palette and graphical style, but hey it's JOYMASHER again, so no surprise there.
@Serpenterror framerate is directly related to how it will run, which was my point entirely. Thanks for listing your game playing history though. Gowcazier however is a great game, as are many of the others you mentioned.
@LoyalWolf Thats a massive undertaking that few will tackle. R-Type in pixel form obviously already existed and the HD is a skin over, so in that instance it was a relatively simple process. A new Mega Man in this style would mean essentially making the game twice, and whilst it would be excellent, it's unlikely it would happen.
Mega Man as a pizza delivery guy living in a squalid flat with no heating. Lots of mini games of him making questionable decisions whilst inebriated on cheap booze.
This is a really cool crossover idea, but lame that it's just the original game, which is frankly pretty crap. The update featuring the Hoff is a lot of fun and much much better.
@Baler Joycons are fine if you've got tiny hands, for anyone else they're cramped and really uncomfortable. HORI products are the absolute best in my opinion. Both the grip and various controllers are excellent.
Avenger is bland at best, Psychic storm is just o.k, Gaiares is of course a classic and Granada is pretty good, this just seems a little lacking to me.
It's cool if you want physicals of all the Konami collections, but the game selection here is pretty rubbish. Konami like most of the golden era are sat on a veritable treasure trove of games, that they sadly never release.

Re: Where To Buy Metroid Prime Remastered On Switch
Gotta get that Asian version for the artwork.
Re: Where To Buy Metroid Prime Remastered On Switch
@MS7000 Yep they're excellent, but they sold out at that price days ago.
Re: Review: Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider - Drop-Dead Gorgeous, Neo-Retro Action Platforming
@daveMcFlave Play the Japanese version or nothing at all, it's superior in every way and vastly more playable.
Re: Switch Online's Game Boy Library Is Slightly Different In Japan
I always download the Japanese versions, for the awesome box art if nothing else. We need Metroid Zero.
Re: Review: Drainus - A Spectacular, Showboating Tour De Force For Sci-Fi Shmup Fans
@rockodoodle very easy for hardcore players, i play a lot of shooters and found the challenge to be fine and absolutely not too easy.
Re: Round Up: Here's What Switch Online Players Think Of GoldenEye 007 So Far
@Byungsuk101 other way around more like.
Re: Sting's Wii Party RPG 'Dokapon Kingdom' Is Coming To Switch
Brilliant game, but needs other players, the solo is pretty dull.
Re: Dead Cells' Castlevania DLC Looks Like Symphony Of The Night Reincarnated
Rogue stuff isn't my thing, but this is worth firing this up again for.
Re: Dead Cells' Castlevania DLC Looks Like Symphony Of The Night Reincarnated
@Serpenterror Well yeah they're not doing anything or are they?
Re: Review: Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider - Drop-Dead Gorgeous, Neo-Retro Action Platforming
@daveMcFlave No dude, VGM. Blazing Chrome is of course very very much like Contra Hard Corps. It's essentially Contra hard Corps Plus

@Ellie-Moo You have the patients of a saint. This is the easiest double-dip on the planet for me.
Re: Takashi Iizuka: SEGA Has "A Lot More" Planned For Sonic The Hedgehog In 2023
For Christ's sake, how about making plans for all the other incredible IP's you're sat on. Sonic has been done to death.

Re: Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection Launches On Switch Spring 2023
@mikegamer I still bought a copy though.
Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt 3's "Biggest Update" Is Now Available On Switch
I've only played the demo, but this game is fantastic, my favourite in the series I think.
Re: Talking Point: What Would You Want To See In A 'Mega Man 12'?
@Slain You do realise we have HD pixels now that work on HD screens right?

Re: Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Collection Launches On Switch Spring 2023
I don't need six more games I'm not going to play.

Re: DNF Duel Is Getting A Nintendo Switch Port In Spring 2023
@Serpenterror That would be cool, but I doubt it would run very well.

Re: Atari Recharged Collections Receiving Limited Run Physical Switch Release
This is disgusting behaviour on LR's part, absolute money grabbing.
Re: Video: Here's An Extended Look At Fire Emblem Engage For Nintendo Switch
Not a fan of the modern games, but this looks really good. I am definitely going to check this out.

Re: Video: THQ Nordic Cooks Up A New Gameplay Trailer For AEW: Fight Forever
I honestly cannot wait for this game, it looks fantastic.
Re: Video: THQ Nordic Cooks Up A New Gameplay Trailer For AEW: Fight Forever
@Jprhino84 It's a throwback title, it's supposed too.
Re: Random: Fan Preserves Zelda History By 3D Scanning Classic 1980s Figurines
@MasterGraveheart They were re-released about five years ago.
Re: Level-5's Mech RPG Megaton Musashi Is Going Free-To-Play On Switch This December
@Travisemo007 Didn't you ask if it had English subs? To which I said it does not.
Re: Mini Review: A Little To The Left - An Evocative, Imaginative Tidy 'Em Up
My GF is going to love this.
Re: Level-5's Mech RPG Megaton Musashi Is Going Free-To-Play On Switch This December
I mean I'd happily pay if you give us English subs.
Re: Level-5's Mech RPG Megaton Musashi Is Going Free-To-Play On Switch This December
@Travisemo007 There are not
Re: Bravery & Greed Brings The Fantasy Fight To Switch Today
This looks really fun, nice art style too.
Re: Dimps' Legendary Fighter The Rumble Fish 2 Locks In December Switch Release
Going to be a good month for fighters, I think Blazing Strike is also out in December.

Re: SNES-Style Mech-Piloting JRPG 'Chained Echoes' Touches Down On Switch In December
WoW! this looks amazing, absolute day one purchase.
Re: Neo Geo Fighter 'Breakers Collection' Locks In January 2023 Switch Release
@Ryu_Niiyama Awesome, thanks. Question how many games do you have? Do you do everything digital?
Re: Mega Man 11 Becomes Best-Selling Entry In The Series' 35-Year History
@Dm9982 100000000% agree. It absolutely ruins the flow of the game.
Re: Neo Geo Fighter 'Breakers Collection' Locks In January 2023 Switch Release
@Ryu_Niiyama A third? I need one, got lots of games currently uninstalled. What make do you use? Keen to know a good one.
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Would Love To See Call Of Duty On Nintendo Switch
Couldn't care either way, but how would it run though?

Re: My Nintendo Japan Adds Themed N64 Merch - Shirts, Mugs & More
That shirt is awful, literally a pasted box shot.
Re: Resident Evil 2, 3 And 7 Cloud Lock In Nintendo Switch Release Dates
The reality is the switch is weak, and cannot run these games. Until that is rectified it will become more of a thing.

Re: Superb Shmup Radiant Silvergun Is Getting A Physical Release On Switch
This is amazing, but it still hasn't been updated/fixed and the sound issues are glaring. Still, I will absolutely buy this day one.
Re: Atari Anniversary Collection Full List Of Games Possibly Revealed In Retailer Leak
There are huge holes here, with most of the platforms being represented by so so games, and lots of the classics missing.
