lmao glad the initial comments are my thoughts. If they wanted to impress, they'd release the full Pokemon roster for Sword and Shield. But I would expect...disappointment!

@Malakai FFVII is on Switch tho bruh

Well, I have not been following Smash news at all. That's a really cool announcement!

I don't know why people even discuss things like this. It's impressive. Some people have clunker PCs that they have to set the settings low, and get something similar. I'll get this on PC at some point simply because I've put a lot of work into my PC for the past few years. Love my Switch, but I save some games for PC.

Par for the course with Chinese censorship. Obviously I don't think it should be outright cancelled across the country, but they've made far worse decisions to be outraged by, like imprisoning hundreds of thousands of people and forcing them into labour.

As for the offending joke itself, even if you don't agree with censorship, that is objectively terrible writing.

@Guitario Here's a beauty that went up in the past month at a local games store in Victoria BC. I'm not living there right now, but it's my favourite games store ever. Pretty pricey still, but honestly not bad for the new screen, new charging port, and custom Famicom colours!

Never thought I'd check these games out, but now I might. Should be hilarious!

@Quarth I agree! I understand people not liking the small screen, but if you know the game well, it's a great version. Love all the extras.

@Jakiboy I know a local game store that does amazing mods on original GBA's. GBA SP-101's are kind of hard to come by. The folks I know mod the original gameboy to have a bright screen, USB C charging etc. They look great. I think it's more about functionality. The system in this article plays ROMs, so that's the unique factor here.

@Kirbyboy92 I see your point, but it's still pretty unfortunate.

@Razer I think the Wii U Mario Maker online services being taken down is new info?

Pretty stoked I got Fire Emblem Three Houses (physical) for $50.00 CAD instead of $80.00!

@AndyC_MK84 Sea of Thieves has at least been improved year-by-year. It's a great game. Definitely different from previous Rare output. I'm with you though.

That one gal sure has HUGE shoes XD. I enjoyed dating sims for about one year when I was 20, lonely, and in school. I think that's the market. Literally couldn't care less now.

I'm still playing Fire Emblem Awakening!

Nice, I'll have to grab one of my gamecube controllers from my sister during Christmas!

@VinniVinni Pokemon mystery dungeon has that, but maybe you're talking more mainline series!

@Munchlax Basically what they've been doing Gen III onwards. A few steps forwards, a few steps back. I don't think things really got too bad until X & Y, but I remember taking note at the age of 12 that features I enjoyed in Gold/Silver were missing in Ruby/Sapphire...

@sanderev I don't think an opinion qualifies as 'hate'.

Ehhh uuhhhh ummm. I was born in 1991 and grew up on both in synchrony. I love both but I'd say I lean 2D. I just love those portable adventures. I think it'd be sweet to have a huge expansive 2D Zelda. Everything has been remakes basically since Minish Cap.

I still haven't even bought it! I'm almost done Awakening..I think? I loved the two GBA ones, Path of Radiance on Gamecube, fell off a bit but got back in for Awakening. Will pick up Three Houses at some point. I just take a long time. Glad the game sold well.

@Broosh One of the best specific uses of Wii technology, ha!

and yes, the open world city was boring and a bit clunky, but the game more than made up for it

@BenAV I'm in the same boat...probably been ten years since I played it! and can't wait to play the second, which I missed out on.

but just to note, I fell off on keeping up to date with Pokemon when Black/White came out. Haven't actually beaten a Pokemon game after that. I completed my Diamond Dex in highschool.

and I think they'd be smart to at least patch in the Starters at some point. That would probably move some more copies of the games.

@BowtieShyGuy They couldn't put "Gotta Catch Em All!" on the box, I remember being 12! I still loved Ruby, but even at that age, I was miffed they took aware features (day of the week, time based stuff) that were present in Gold'Silver.

I could see them potentially getting these Pokes in there. I don't really care though, I buy some games close to release, some I enjoy 10 years later. I've been enjoying Pokemon White a fair bit. Still haven't played Sword/Shield. Might some day.

@Mando44646 That opinion could be justified for any console.

Whenever I see these, I'm like "Yay cool I'mma rate some games!!". Then I'm like "whoa, that's too much work".

I enjoyed Pikmin 3 but beat it on Wii U. A triple-pack or even Pikmin 1+2 probably would've done better. It has very little in terms of additional content. I mean, that's also the case with other Wii U re-releases as well, but the Mario platformers have multiplayer that I think would make them do a little more well (along with the name Mario).

Got turned onto this a couple months ago. Need to play it but pretty bogged down with studying. I will though

@bobzbulder The first AND third paragraphs are pretty...wild!

@Jakiboy idk I think he's still funny, engaging and I didn't watch him much back in the day. His episode with Macaulay Culkin was hilarious!

Loved the first one, never got around to the second. So this is great news!

I never thought about it but WarioWare 99 honestly makes the most sense to me. That would be so fun. I haven't really sunk a lot of time into a warioware game since the Wii one. That one was so much fun to get people involved with.

Well, it's still cheap for me. But I agree with everyone else. The limited-time stuff is dumb, and not putting this on the NES app is dumb also.

@AlexSwitch10 Same here! My favourite versions right now are GBA carts with updated SNES audio. I don't like the new graphical updates, but get it if some people do. Just widescreen would be GORGEOUS.

@Don Mystic Quest would be great. I would love to see FF Tactics as well...

@AlexSwitch10 imagine if they actually did them justice. 1-3 and 4-6 could be two collections. Original graphics and then updated?

On topic, the only launch title I got was Bomberman...hardly played it. Just never been my thing, would probs be more fun to experience with 4 players. Had Fast RMX on Wii U, and it was pretty sweet. Had the original Shovel Knight on 3DS, really should get the collection! It was an OK release lineup, buoyed by Breath of the Wild. Can't really think of any 'sensational' launches really, ha. It's always either a smattering of decent games, or one awesome flagship title beside one mediocre one.

Actually it was definitely late 2018. I picked one up used a bit after Pokemon Let's Go! Pikachu and Eevee were released. I was stoked for those games as an original Pokemon fan. They were a bit disappointing, but still pretty.

Hmmm I forget when I got my switch. Must have been partway through 2018.

@Steelhead I just wished they went with the original art instead of the cellphone style sprites!

@Quarth I should have said, I like the design!

I don't know if I can think of any other game with box art designed in that way?

@Menardi yeah, seems kind of outrageous to me

So there's no challenge to catching them?

Never heard of it, looks great.

@LillianC14 2nd game is far better than the 1st

Can someone just hop in or do you have to both start in the town from scratch? Also is it possible yet to visit one another's towns and help one another out via local play?
