Sacred Cards was probably the earliest Yugioh game I'd ever played (and I was always desperate for more card shenanigans back then) so it would be fun to experience it again after so many years.

Never experienced these games back in the day and I'm always looking for excuses to play more RPGs. I think I may have found one.

The first game was a genuinely engaging callback to Castlevania in terms of its gameplay style while overlaying the root series humour as it progressed. Hopefully this sequel can shine as brightly.

101.5 Echoes Confirmed!

Shinobi is looking very clean and intricate. Keep going in that direction Sega, quick time!

To this day anytime I see Misty or Jessie I hear them in Rachael's voice. A truly talented artist who leaves us too young.

Probably no longer had a telly after this clip.

I shant ask what you'll do with the knowledge of my cartridge licking in the folly of my youth.

Ahh the fun side of the Internet, how I love you.

'If you misbehave the man will come over and you'll be sorry.'

'What man?'

Nintendo:

Would give anything for a good Bleach game and hopefully this could be one.

Kong Holiday eh?

Didn't realize I needed a DK Western until just now. Make it happen Nintendo!

All just quite pathetic. There are much more reasonable ways to vent frustrations you have with the world.

Horizon is a fantastic series but in terms of Smash representation I would like to see Crash Bandicoot or, dare I hope, Twinbee ahead of someone like Aloy.

It's certainly a unique concept so if the moment-to-moment gameplay is fun I'm down for it.

The Lego works in mysterious ways....

I suppose we could all buy TTYD on the GC for much less than €50 right. Right?

Joking aside I think it all depends on the game, length of time since its original release and whether or not additions have been made to it (gameplay additions mind you).

Would love a new 3D Kong adventure!

That and throw DK64 and Diddy Kong Racing onto NSO asap.

Rainbow Islands.... I have such fond memories of watching my brother and Dad playing this game. Alongside Flimbo's Quest and Creatures 2 this is one of the reasons I got into games.

Sadly, or maybe not, I let Zane log into Hypnospace one fateful December 1999.

@Serpenterror 'Fantastic, now give us a Goemon collection too, there should be at least 19 games on it:'

I heartily endorse this idea. #GiveUsGoemon

If I win the Lotto.... maybe....

Really looking forward to replaying this one. Let's hope some QoLs sort out the back tracking nonsense!

The one thing I couldn't get by was the sheer length of the loading time between each and every screen.

Didn't know I needed Prime 4 until I saw that ! Thank you Nintendo Life!

I have such fond memories of Super Mario World that I cannot divorce from a great time in my life. It's hard to choose anything else as a result.

In the same way that I didn't want Galaxy 3 or 3D World 2 I would much prefer that Nintendo surprise us once again with the direction of their next Mario games, not just iterate on the titles that succeed (though that's less likely).

Bought all the SteamWorld games Day 1 except for this; it's not a genre I'm very fond of.

I just hope that Thundeful doesn't take this as a sign of dislike towards the 'SteamWorld' franchise. You cannot make games that do persistent genre hops and then have reservations that a few particular genres don't do as well fiscally.

Were there a SteamWorld Football Manager I wouldn't play that either.

Saturday wait, Sunday always comes too late but Friday never hesitate.

I would enjoy a dose of HD-2D FFVI with a little QoL.

I could happily live with a smaller roster for future iterations as long as there was a story mode where said roster interact with one another in dramatic and comedic ways.

Eastward is such a fun adventure with some charming characters and more amazing music; Twisted Justice and Heretic Frying Pan being just a couple of my favourites.

"Soundtrack isn't particularly memorable"

All those really fantastic boss themes and, of course, Venus Lighthouse would care to differ.

Can't wait for the Nintando Swetch.

Gravity Circuit is the kind of Megaman-esque game I've dreamed about for years. I'd recommend anyone who likes them, particularly the Zero games, to give it a shot.

The family that ink together, splat together!

Would love to see a return for Billy Hatcher. The original game is quite fun and has some nuanced mechanics that if refined could make another truly spectacular platformer.

Obligatory 'Give me Skies of Arcadia!' also.

Harkens back to the time when I'd trade my SNES for my friends Megadrive for a week or two and play each others games; this is how Shinobi and Golden Axe became staples of my youth, so it is a great thrill to potentially have more.

But Crazy Taxi is definitely tempting as well.

Yesterday Microsoft: 'Didn't you learn anything from love day?

Today Microsoft: 'That was yesterday moron!'

Shame about Layton and Decapolice being 2025, I have no choice but to wait patiently for them.

Musashi looks interesting but I'll wait to see a bit more before determining if it is spend-worthy.

'I'm gonna Shrek it!' - The Developers probably?

Keith David as Ganondorf.

Obviously Rhys Darby will be Link, there can be no doubt.

Amiibo always felt like a missed opportunity to me.

Unlike 3rd party toy-to-life models, where the released figures are tied to one singular franchise, Amiibo belongs to a platform holder. As that platform holder Nintendo had the capacity to release these figures and have them react, at least to all their own IP, in some sort of way, rather than only being used on a per-franchise basis.

But that's sadly what they did.
It was interesting prospect that if you bought a Mario Amiibo that it's functionality would apply across not only Mario games but also other games with varied functions and all for just the price of that singular figure. But instead we got new Amiibo for every barely thing that was done in whatever game they featured in.

People should've had the option to buy a single figure and have it work across 20 games, not the other way around.

Ooh a plague mask. Sold!

Eastward is such a charming game with vibrant locales and even more vibrant characters. I'd say its only flaw is that the combat is occasionally clunky, but not unfun. If anyone was on the fence about this game it's definitely worth picking up at that price.

Disturbing lack of Creatures 1 & 2, Flimbo's Quest, Klax, Cyberdyne Warrior and Freddy's Circus.

Nothing says 'Happy Birthday Darling!' better than a copy of Crawlco Block Knockers.

Would've played as Yoshi except for the fact that he was made easy mode for no reason. So with that in mind I'll probably play as Toadette.

Once I attained 'Actual Clock Puncher' there was no going back.
