The Mario set is OK, but I like the NES one a lot more.

Truly bizarre that Miyamato and Iwata before him generally make good decisions... but then occasionally say/do very strange stifling things.

Ha. Looks like the way high-school textbooks are designed as well.

@SoManyHaveDied Along with that, they have unrealistic expectations. I already buy too many games and do not beat them. I am not amazing with my finances, and I am sure plenty of people are far worse. Or they are children, complaining. I started working as a kid so I could buy the games, books and music I wanted...I realized at 19 I was overextending myself on the media I was purchasing.

I have been saying for years that games are less expensive than ever. They haven't inflated like so many other things. Here in Canada, Kmart sold Dr. Mario for NES for $80. I remember some N64 games cranked up to $80 around 2000/2001. I recall during the GameCube Era, many games went down by $10 when the American and Canadian dollar were more at par.

@EVIL-C it's nice to see this point of view. I can understand why people were disappointed with Federation Force somewhat, but the co-op play did look pretty fun.

@Dr_Corndog It is very clickbaity - takes the most seemingly controversial line and pastes it as the headline. Instead of being "Brief interview on MP4" or the like.

Two more cents, I hope there are difficulty settings like MP3, and I hope multiplayer is re-introduced a la MP2/Hunters. I think both those things make the game accessible to a much larger audience. But WHO KNOWS what direction 4 will take XD. I still trust it far more in the hands of Retro.

Who knows what any of this implies. As far as Tanabe goes, I don't understand the hate - look at all the game credits under his belt. He has not 'ruined' many games or series, save for the directions that Paper Mario has taken since the 3DS...although Origami King seems to right some of peoples grievances, it still ignores peoples main ones (battle system firstmost).

If the Metroid Prime series is 'more accessible', I hope it's only in the ways that MP3 was 'more accessible'. While I found the gameplay quite a bit easier than MP1 and especially MP2, it was still an amazing game, while being a bit more accessible to the average player. Still, I found MP1 had the best balance (I'm a gamer that enjoys hard games, but can't beat extreme games).

I'll still probably play it online (I'm moving to a new city, so this suits me), but those sure are dumb choices. Couch co-op makes this game.

I personally feel that the character models look like hot garbage - like modern Pokemon but even worse.

Classic Suda. Love it. Great marketing.

Good Lord, we might still get a good collection of online games!

Nice to see that people can't even draw in 2020 anymore.

I've never seen other retailers list import fees......

I have had to pay ridiculous import fees on records, etc. I don't see how 15-17 pounds is a huge deal. I see the point indicated above that all postage costs would be covered...but I really do think that everyone kind of has their panties in a bunch here.

@RustedHero You're off the mark in your facetiousness. Nobody who gives a hoot for BLM would have given a hoot for BLM gokarts. Flop joke!

I have never backed anything on Kickstarter, but personally, I fail to see how that is the fault of PlatinumGames. Import fees suck ass, but they exist.

I think people are being very hyperbolic in blaming PlatinumGames for this. I have been hit with unexpected import fees when buying records.

Got it on sale for like $6 here in Canada? Pretty damn sweet.

Old fans who jumped ship and new fans want a GOOD game.

Just make an actual fleshed out Pokemon Stadium game. Good battle system, good graphics and...fun minigames!!! Trading your Pokemon from Sword/Shield (not that I have either...). That sounds like a moneymaker to me.

@Lordd_G Foreskin? LOL

@DonSerrot Sort of like Lance Armstrong!

"I'm obviously reserved. I don't speak much. To media." XFD BS BROTHER!!!

Yeah, still not buying it after watching it. No hard proof, just more bluster. This entire video is hilarious. Billy needs to shave his head and quite dying his beard, so he can look like a normal person. So much bluster. Gross.

Since Let's Go came out, I'd prefer remakes be more in line with HeartGold/SoulSilver. While I still find Let's Go really pretty and beautiful, it's basically a walking sim. So boring!

Black Bull! Nice!

@Kalmaro A voice actor would have to be black, to voice a black character. If I were running a company. Of course, hypothetically, you'd be free to hire a white actor to voice a black character. Sure, I don't agree with laws being made in some instance like this, but I just see it as common-sense. Why are we talking about this again? lol.

@Kalmaro If I were running a company, they'd have to. Not sure why that's a big deal.

Nice!!! Always wanted to play this, great opportunity. Always loved the Ventrillo Harrassment Duke Nukem clip.

@QueenKittenWrite Just remember, you can be anti-PC and still advocate for things like black people voicing black characters. Just my two cents, hope your day is swell.

Also...Mario Party 3 is the king of Mario Parties!!!

Don't know why Nintendo bothered with 1-2 Switch when a game like WarioWare would do GREAT on Switch. I don't look back on Wii motion control THAT fondly, but WarioWare Smooth Moves was so damn fun...MP3 also nailed Wii controls. Minigames are fun! Especially with Nintendo charm.

Can't believe it was that long ago it was canceled!

@FernandoMachado Your suggestion is perfect!

Loved playing Crystal Chronicles and Four Swords Adventures with 3 friends. Wouldn't be the same without couch coop.

As long as they make it control better, which I doubt. The first trailers looked sloppy.

Played it steady from release, probably had a 10 day break or so right now. I don't like to think too hard about video games. I love Animal Crossing but don't make it a chore. I could say I 'burnt out on it', but that's not my perspective - I'm simply doing other things! Will be playing again soon.

Has a bit of an unpolished feel, but lots of fun with friends online!

I like directs, but I also don't mind at all. Surprise announcements are still cool.

@jwfurness SV was literally made because the creator was unsatisfied with the direction of Harvest Moon games...ha. I loved playing Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life when I was 12, but I quickly ran out of things to do once I had bought everything, and my child was only a toddler. There was literally nothing left to do. I kept playing Animal Crossing at the time, and never ran out of anything to do in that game.

@Finntendo Email the company instead of open air venting 😊

I do still truly love SMB3, SMB1, Kirby's Adventure (love that it's a Kirby game with easy bits and harder stuff), Zelda, Zelda II (nice to be able to play with rewind, ha) and Punchout!!!...I'm sure I could add five or so more to my list if I actually tried them. I tried that VICE game when it was put on, and it was actually impressive. I wish I didn't struggle with games like Metroid and Kid Icarus, but I do. Probably same with Ninja Gaiden.

I should also try Adventures of Lolo, Solomon's Key and StarTropics...I sympathize with those bored with the NES catalogue, but think they could get into a few games if they tried. That being said, I want some more SNES games (come on, get more DKC on there, Earthbound...people will pay for online just for those!!!), it's one of my favourite consoles. N64 and Gamecube as well (or Gamecube remasters). I'd pay.

Color Splash still had great writing, but the whole NPC bit and battle system were weird. At least the little bit we see of this one is different from Color Splash (way too slow, too simple and random), but fingers crossed it's engaging in some way and not weird/random...

This is BIG news. Wow.

Stoked to try this. I wish they'd bring back the online game search that was only the experimental arenas...those were so fun.

While I hope this comes to Switch, I'll snag it on sale on PC for sure!

@Highlar Yes, I did read that. For me, the key word here is "Mick was concerned" - not upset or on some warpath, like the keyboard jockeys out there. I think people are extrapolating a lot from Mick's tweets, and the one thing I would fault him for is not clarifying things, but perhaps he does not do well with public relations while under stress. Probably should delete Twitter!

@KillerBOB Ever read a book there brother? This is baby material.

@Highlar Well, he still deserves full writing credits - he wrote the songs. The other individuals deserve mixing/production credits. It doesn't say that Mick is upset with that aspect?
