@Anti-Matter when they released the first Dual Shock, to me it felt really inferior to the N64 controller as the analog sticks were more difficult to reach and use properly. They also occasionally got in the way while trying to press other buttons. 4 generations later, I still consider Dual Sense the worst (official) controller of the current generation.

£40 for this feels like daylight robbery.

quite happy about Singapore and Bangkok! but overall it feels like a relatively weak wave compared to the others.

At this rate we will never get Mario Kart 9...

Brilliant stuff!

They were supposed to become the new Rare :/

Hmm online multiplayer might convince me to buy it.

I totally agree about Wizpig. It was so frustrating that I just stopped trying and never saw the rest of the game, which is a shame because I was loving it.
Also the final boss in DK64, annoying, frustrating and too long. Never finished that either.

on a separate note, does Eggman's name count as body shaming?

"so these bricks are just floating here?" after casually using a floating moving platform one second earlier

@datamonkey it was from Very, £329 with Pokemon Scarlet & Violet which I sold to Cex for £80 cash, and 20% discount for new customers. I constantly check hotukdeals, the best offers are always there.

I don't like the principle of black Friday, but I couldn't ignore the opportunity to get a Switch OLED for £187

I don't like the art style of this, looks too cutesy and washed out. Also it's missing the shotting machine. Co-op should be fun but this game really needs to be online!

This makes me really sad. I remember the hype and trepidation for the Revolution as if it was yesterday 😕

Unrelated to this, but I would love to see a 2D Mario game using the art style of the old game covers/booklets etc. just like the one above! it would look brilliant in HD.

a wheel that can be connected directly to the tv and includes Virtua Racing, Daytona, Sega Rally, Scud Race and their other arcade racing games.

Would love to see this on NSO at some point, and the SNES ones too! but my expectations are extremely low, especially with Super Bomberman R 2 coming soon.

@mereel finally! Maybe it's time to get into it again.

This is brilliant!
Not the style I would expect from Nintendo 😂

Alberobello
I never thought I would see it in a game!

When I saw this at the top of the home page I thought it had been finally announced...

This might convince me to download the japanese NSO just to experience it with the rumble pak!

Kalimari Desert by far. I also love all the ways people misspell it 😂

I completely disagree on Mario Circuit 3. It's a proper racing track where driving actually matters, and it has the most iconic Mario Kart music. It's graphically disappointing even by Booster Pack standards but the track itself is great.

@peachflavored I was about to post the exact same comment!

@BusterMove totally agree. It's one of the few, if not the only Mario Kart that is actually a proper racing game. The others are more like party games built around racing.

Just to put things into context, F-Zero was the 15th best-selling game on SNES, which isn't bad. X and GX sold less but N64 and GC had a smaller install base.
I think a new F-Zero, if properly made and well advertised would easily sell a few million copies.

I also dislike the art style, but I would never insult him or attack him personally. These people have some serious mental problems.

I was really hoping for a 90s collection :/
Still better than nothing I guess...

@YoshiAngemon I think that would be good enough!

does this fix F-Zero X? Haven't had a chance to check yet.

Not a big surprise but still disappointing...maybe I'll wait for a discount

presumably the Switch version will be disappointing and overpriced like the first one anyway...

Looks incredible. I would love to see Wave Race at 60 fps and in 16:9

I would love to see Super Bomberman 1 or 2 but I guess Konami wouldn't want to cannibalise Super Bomberman R with a better game

No frame rate fix for F-zero X?

it looks just like Mario Kart Tour / MK8D booster pass

Could it be Burnout?

that's fine, in 2022 I'll be too busy anyway, playing the new F-Zero.

Choco Mountain's music is possibly the main reason I love that track so much! not sure what to think of this version yet...

I'm looking forward to the visual upgrade to bring those tracks to Switch level, which is probably not happening
Choco Mountain is one of my favourite MK tracks ever, but it looked better on N64.

@nuff64 Thanks, I didn't even know those caps existed! Just ordered some.

@nuff64 exactly, the frame rate drops quite often! Maybe it's just me but it also feels more difficult to control with the joycon stick.

my guess is that Nintendo has it but will never release it because they see the Virtual Boy's failure as a humiliation.
Like many others, I also desperately miss F-Zero. Even a GX HD remaster would make me happy!

I remember magazines mentioning the 64DD as Nintendo's response to the CD-ROM. Only much later I found out the disk size was 10 times smaller, same as the biggest N64 cartridges. What was the point of it then?

glad I wasn't the only one who had strange thoughts about the adult set 😂

@Banjo- I agree! I spent so many evenings playing 24-race championships with a friend

that red plane/kart reminds me of Helmut from Street Racer.

I definitely would have preferred a new Wii Sports Resort, especially for the water sports
