Re: Rumour: Konami Is Bringing Its WiiWare ReBirth Series To Switch

I'm hoping so! Those games would be a fantastic addition to the Switch eShop. I was planning on buying them before the Wii Shop Channel permanently closes but if they are coming to Switch I can just get them there.

If this is true I hope it causes Nintendo to consider other WiiWare games to port to Switch /ahem...(Excitebike World Rally) ...../ahem.

I got a SNES in the Christmas of 1992. As usual, we had to go visit family on Christmas Day so......every place we went I took the SNES with me and hooked it up to any TV i could find. F-Zero was (and still is) awesome to play!

Re: Feature: Memorable Games of 2017 - DOOM

@Racthet916 My infatuation with the x-axis inversion primarily comes from the hundreds of hours I've dumped into Monster Hunter Tri, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Monster Hunter 4, and Monster Hunter Generations. For all of those games, I had this as my setting.

So when I got Breath of the Wild, the first thing I did was invert the controls because then it felt more "Monster Hunter-ish" to me.

DOOM does not have this option, unfortunately. It's difficult for me to revert back to the original controls. I'll figure out something, just practice harder I guess.

I quit playing DOOM on Switch because there is no option to invert the x-axis controls. After 600+ hours of BotW, I'm very much accustomed to having both x and y-axis controls inverted. I've tried but can't control the pointer in Doom no matter how much I practice. I'm terrible.

Receiving Super Mario Bros. 2 for Christmas 1988. This game was THE hot item that year. Finding a copy on store shelves would be like finding an NES Classic on store shelves today - virtually impossible. We lived in Virginia but my mom worked for a company that had several locations around the United States. She picked up the phone and called a coworker in Michigan to see if any copies of the game could be found there. Lo and behold, that's exactly what happened! Someone I don't even know in a state far, far away was able to find one and send it to my mom, who then wrapped it and gave to me.

Interesting to note that a week or so before Christmas that year, I was walking around my Granny's house and snooping into rooms I shouldn't have been snooping around in. I walked into her bedroom and right on her dresser was the game! I had to hide my excitement and act like I never saw it. Waiting to unwrap that gift was and still is the longest seven days of my life. lol
