This all sounds amazing!

@clvr Right? I was thinking the exact same thing

Sine Mora EX looks so good!

Looks great!

Vertical mode is very enticing. Will buy.

I think it's a fake based on the alignment of the game box. Also, it's like, the least imaginative fake thing ever

@jswhitfield8 IGN has a video series based on that idea! It's called Linked Together I think

Wow. I'm cancelling my preorder if they don't release a statement addressing this.

I guess they're not gonna make any more Deus Ex games

It's pretty common for actors to put on a "non-regional dialect" no matter where they come from, which is what I'd blame any discomfort re her accent on. I didn't mind it tbh

"Put a horse in me, I'm stable!" --my Switch

@Jhena you can turn it to auto-shoot when you hold the button!

If Nintendo finds a way to make a profit and keep in business, I don't mind Switch becoming a Nintendo-and-indies-and-occasional-3rd-party machine that I can play on the go. I also have a PS4 and the catalogue is so robust that it really puts things in perspective. I'd be kind of surprised to see Nintendo catch up. So I've stopped looking at this as a race between the consoles. It's sad, of course, to have less 3rd party options for my Switch, but it's not the end of the world. Nintendo isn't going bankrupt and my Switch isn't becoming less fun. When a 3rd party multiplatform game comes out on Switch, I lean toward the Switch version because of portability and because I want to support the publishers who gave it a shot. For those who can't afford both a Switch and another system, that's a problem, however, which really sucks.

I preordered Lego City Undercover! Everyone says it's great and it looks great, they say they improved load times, I missed it on Wii U, co-op sounds fun, and I wanna support 3rd party efforts. This is me justifying an expensive purchase but I mean what I say! Also glad I got it with the Prime Preorder bonus. I don't know if I'd wanna get it for $60.

I wonder when the Switch shop will start having sales. Would love a discount if you buy multiple titles from a set, like ACA or the Tomorrow Corp games.

Just wondering, are you guys planning on reviewing the ACA Neo Geo games?

Clapping!

@leo13 and others interested in pricing, this is from the comments: "Each game will cost $9.99 USD, or the equivalent if you aren’t based in the US."

I got Metal Slug 3. It's the first time I've played it. And yeah, these issues are making it difficult enough to feel immersed and truly learn what makes it so great. Especially with Zelda on the same system. I think I'll wait til it's patched to play again.

I'm glad I preordered with the Prime discount! This set looks cool. I heart paper instruction manuals. Let's put those clips inside the Switch game boxes to use!

Just to add my own story to the mix, I had heard they'd have some Sunday March 5 at Toys R Us... I went there before they opened and was 7th in line. Turns out they had about 104 consoles altogether, more than enough for everyone who had lined up. I hope it bodes well for the future availability of the console for everyone else. The NES Classic Edition, on the other hand...

Kinda want to buy this now to support third party efforts, but I'm inclined to wait for a price drop. I do really want it one way or another though.

I will join those in saying I like the art style!

My answer is that I'm gonna try to buy a Switch on launch day (not at midnight) at Nintendo NY since they said they'd have a comfortable supply... maybe I'm naive but a boy can dream. And I'll get Bomberman if the reviews are good, but I already got Zelda and 1-2 Switch preordered.

You bet your buns I'll be picking this up

The first game was so great! Amazing retro feel. Can't wait for this.

@ThomasBW84 Hey is it the TurboGrafx Gradius?

Looks like it's TurboGrafx Gradius according to the press release, that's why it's in there

Nintendo, there's still time to reconsider the price!

Seems like a fun lil game... weird thing to lead the presentation with though

I've heard of a ball, but a CIRCULAR ball??

My favorite has been Deus Ex. Assassin's Creed 4 is also great.

Seems like a flaw if I have to come to a comment thread to figure that out instead of it being obvious in the game. Fyi I haven't played the game but that's my two cents.

Maybe you should make it more obvious from the start that there is a difficulty slider that they're setting all the way up and what that means for the gameplay

At first glance this seemed like a really good purchase for me — I gobbled up all N64-related journalism back in the day — but I am more interested in the little funny development-side stories, how certain decisions were reached and things were discarded, problems during development and how they were overcome, etc. This sounds more like a glossy catalog of N64 games with descriptions and screen shots. Am I wrong? Is there something more for the development-curious reader? Sounds like a good book but not a must-buy for me.

I was all about supporting this if I got the ROM for $5 or so, but $20? No thanks.

The Wii is still much more popular than the Wii U in Mexico, and probably other countries. It has a huge install base that probably has a big overlap with fans of this show. It isn't at all surprising to me that they're putting out a Wii version, and I think a Wii version of this game would be far more successful than a Wii U version.

I wish Nintendo would just license this, replace Mario and the other characters and assets if they must and let everyone share the wealth

Are any of these games ones that didn't make it to the US? Asking for a friend (me)

Aw, no love for Go Go Kokopolo? Easily one of my top 3 DSiWare games.

BIT.TRIP Runner and Balloon Fight say hi. Good endless runners exist. Give it a chance. Let them make some money for crying out loud.

I mean, they said it would be a 3DS focused direct. I'd rather have them porting Wii U games to 3DS and making some profit than putting their resources toward making new incredible Wii U games. We have lots already. They didn't sell, but we can play them. Now, why is the 3DS mostly getting ports and the Wii U mostly getting nothing? Obviously all their major teams and resources are going toward NX games so they have a respectable launch.

They have to explain StreetPass over and over for the rest of their lives when people ask how he proposed!

@rosemo Yeah you really figured me out. It's because he's Christian. He really exemplifies the commandment, "Thou shalt say less agreeable things about gay marriage."

@Zach - please remember the Community Rules re. profanity when posting. Thanks.

I wish I could be excited about this but my feelings about Doug TenNapel get in the way. Hard to separate the art from the artist sometimes.

Haha I like that the Atlus producer is like, "We contacted Nintendo repeatedly..." And very quickly the Nintendo rep is like "We got back to them immediately!!"

I've always been suspicious of that weird apostrophe. What is its mission?

At least some of those names are real names, like Onyx and Shay.

One sentence. It was one sentence in a story. Please tell me that some people here could make it past the first sentence without taking it personally and using the comments to describe why they're both a) not interested in or dislike the Ghostbusters film, or refuse to see it, and b) not sexist. Maybe that's true. Great! To the rest: it's not everyone, but some people need to ask themselves if they doth protest too much. After that, don't reply to me about it. Lock that answer away and revisit it in ten years, when maybe you've grown up a bit.

Absolutely justified. Kids were getting robbed at gunpoint at a PokeStop and the game has barely been out for any time at all.
