@crackafreeze Tomorrow in PAL territories.

Super Play was THE SNES magazine. It's how I got to discover imports and animé.

Everything is not awesome. This is not awesome.

@MegaTen I bought Wheel of Fortune for the Wii, just to see Pat Sajak in Mii form.

@Paperboy I liked the Buzz! games as well on PS2. The pop quiz one was my favourite.

@Moon There's a deluge of games coming to Europe this week! All titles penciled in for Thursday except where noted:

ACA NEOGEO Blue's Journey
The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth +
The Bridge
Double Dragon IV
LEGO Worlds (out Friday)
Lichtspeer: Double Speer Edition
NeuroVoider

@setezerocinco Nope, Lemmings became an IP of Psygnosis, who were bought in 1993 by Sony.

@Bunkerneath Yep, online multiplayer is present.

@Fandabidozi Sorry to burst your bubble but Lemmings is owned by Sony.

No thanks, I've already got a karaoke machine and karaoke software on my laptop.

The Flame in the Flood is due out on Switch in October according to Curve Digital.

Looks like it's going to be released physically, but it's going up against Super Mario Odyssey...

@Nincompoop Rez is an awesome game. Would love to see it on the Switch.

I missed this game first time around. It'll be on my list when I get my Switch.

@OorWullie Radiant Silvergun or Ikaruga?

Now coming in August according to Vector Cell...

If it's any consolation these games are going to the PS4 and PSVita as well.

Levels+ not listed on Nintendo's European websites or in their eShop update (although it does mention that there's a discount on Puyo Puyo Tetris): http://www.nintendo.co.uk/News/2017/July/Weekly-download-news-1243789.html

32/40 from Famitsu (four scores of 8/10) for both Switch and PS4 versions.

I'd much rather System 3 brought a Putty game to the system but there we go.

European release date is 27th October 2017. http://www.koeitecmoeurope.com/news/77205/KOEI-TECMO-EUROPE-PROUDLY-ANNOUNCES--NIGHTS-OF-AZURE-2:-BRIDE-OF-THE-NEW-MOON/

@SLIGEACH_EIRE The way their Irish staff were treated was beyond contempt.

However I fear the Welsh might be giving this one a wide berth, lest the stereotype take hold!

Anyway, I'm sure the Switch owners will flock to it... #sheeppuns

Pronounced "Sheffy" as in the English city of Sheffield (or at least that's what Google Translate gives when I try to write it in after a few Guinneses!)

@Davidv Binding of Isaac is now coming in September (or so it seems)...

http://nintendoeverything.com/the-binding-of-isaac-afterbirth-now-set-for-september-14th-in-europe/

And I thought the Codies were one of the main third-party developers from that infographic back in January...

Takes me back to 2002 when they announced they were developing for the GameCube, then cancelled all GC games in development a few months later, and the only GC game they ever released was Free Radical Design's "Second Sight" in 2004.

The Switch version is officially cancelled.

@RatKing64 Do you mean Team Kirby Clash Deluxe? If so, it's out now.

What happened to GoNNER?

Now just 12 days left, 2,531 backers and £129,348 raised. It's a bit of a lost cause now, really.

Well

@azelf Well

Andrew Hewson, Rob's dad and founder of Hewson Consultants and UKIE, also co-founded 21st Century Entertainment, publishers of Digital Illusions' seminal pinball titles on Amiga and PC (Pinball Dreams, Pinball Fantasies and Pinball Illusions).

Does anyone else think the drastic lowering of the Switch goal has harmed the game's chances of making its target? Or is it fair to say those of use who used to enjoy playing these games in the past have moved on to other genres?

23 days to go, 2,365 backers, only £122,462 raised of its £855,000 initial goal (about £1.17 million for the game to reach the revised Switch goal)

@setezerocinco It sounds more like it's going to be a tactical shooter. Not your typical Mario game is it? 😉

Seems like Nintendo have got compression techniques down to a T!

@aaronsullivan Herzog Zwei was by Technosoft, and Sega acquired all Technosoft's IP's last year.

So stable you'll have a Grand National winner one day. 🐴

@SLIGEACH_EIRE The reason that GTA has never appeared on a Nintendo console is because Nintendo screwed DMA Design over the N64 game Body Harvest, wanting them to change the game into an RPG before cancelling it altogether, leaving DMA to almost go bankrupt before being bought by Gremlin, saving the game AND the company (although GTA was published by BMG Interactive, who were later bought out by Take 2, who then bought DMA from Infogrames who had bought Gremlin in 1999, moved the company down the M90 from Dundee to Edinburgh in 2000, and rebranded them in 2002 as Rockstar North) In this case, it's apparent that old wounds just won't heal.

@ThanosReXXX And this game is from the same people. They really should have tried harder with this one...

Wasn't this played on Go 8 Bit? It looked pretty fun to me.

Also out today in Europe.

What are Nintendo playing at? They need a "299" moment (something to wow the consumer and gain support from major publishers), not an "It's out there" moment (something that will only confuse and alienate consumers and publishers alike - look up the first E3 of 1995 and the Saturn vs PlayStation press conferences)

Super Play was and always will be the best gaming magazine in the UK, if not the world.

@Shiryu And that game came from Delphine Software, the studio behind Another World, Flashback and Fade to Black!

Just goes to show that fighting games just weren't their forte.

@electrolite77 @ULTRA-64 Better be careful lest this creates another Mandela Effect.
