No Ever Oasis? Underrated and a real shame when it was released

@N64-ROX I think it more Crash Bandicoot wannabe than DK

I know it kinda trivializes the art form, but almost anything with pixel art.

@LikelySatan Wow, you JUST made it!

Sounds like an idea Kojima floated around once

@pneumaticgnosis That just makes it a cesspool of nonsense for all sides.

Didn’t 8-4 publish Undertale and 198X?

It’s a good platformer, 2D or 3D, that helps get me through a tough time

@jowy_sw I still haven’t seen any big movie with an “ugly” woman protagonist. Hollywood still wants to make money after all.

Insert Simpson meme: “wow, I hope somebody got fired for that blunder”

Does Skatemaster’s tune sound a bit like an 8 bit rendition of Sister Sister, or is it just me?

@Quiet2down Right. Where are all these unattractive women I keep hearing about? 🙄

@WaffleRaptor01 That’s pretty much EXACTLY what I meant. Sorry if I didn’t articulate it correctly. I still like characters like Bayonetta as she both fits the tone and personality of the game itself. Something like the blades in Xeno 2 (I think that’s what they were called) had all these suggestive angles that the only emotion I felt was laughter.

@smithyo There are plenty of times I don’t mind, though. Society has been so obsessed with women’s bodies over the years that it’s almost distracting and has nothing to do with story. I only take issue with this due to preservation’s sake.

@LadyCharlie
That's a big difference though, looking at something as part of the background versus looking it up online. It's a very odd considering the promise of preservation. It even makes a good talking point as to how games were marketed then vs. how they are now and what the industry has learned.

Any 3rd party game that’s at all decent on Wii can be considered a hidden gem. There are so many of them that next to no one has heard of

Forgotten Sands on Wii is rather underrated

Where is Mini Mario and Friends amiibo Challenge?

@Savage_Joe To be fair it only plays something like sonic. There’s no blatant character ripoffs here

@Phin68 Hopefully it can avoid the Yooka Laylee situation and actually be good. There, fixed. 😉

@-wc- All of my friends seem to love it. Haven’t played it myself though. I downloaded it but then my 3DS was stolen 🤷

This is appalling. I’ll have you know, I am STILL a socially-challenged dweeb.

This NLife editor is doing quite a bit of brown nosing. It’ll be funny if this game gets below a 7/10.

Looks and sounds like Shinobi might be a Mark of the Ninja clone. Not a bad thing but might not be what fans want

@Paraka I would have had SOME fun with it if it wasn’t for weapon cooldowns. As such, it felt like the game was fighting me for trying to enjoy it

I had no idea they were still around. I mean, I knew they were trying to get Timesplitters going but I assumed it was from a new developer.

I gave up trying to 100% SMG the moment Super Luigi Galaxy showed up. That level was maddening.

A 9/10 for now, but it’s just a hair away from a 10/10 mostly because the level design is the best of any platform game I played in years.

No one asked if this game has gyro aiming 😞

@roy130390 I’d say Sonic and the Secret Rings falters because of this.

Now when is WB going to announce that Dying Light 2 Cloud Version is cancelled?

@PJOReilly If it’s the case of different reviewers giving different scores then why does Nintendo Life always use the word “we”?

This is odd as SwitchUp has stated the opposite about nearly every negative this reviewer poses.

You guys forgot to mention it’s developed by Wayforward which gives me confidence in this game that I otherwise wouldn’t have.

@Antraxx777 Unfortunately, the original Anniversary game is completely different. I played that on Wii and had a blast. Since this new one has it where you can swap visuals. It’s more like the controls will be faithful to the original trilogy.

@Antraxx777 What’s your source? Did I miss something?

Tomb Raider has aged like milk though, particularly in the control department. Doesn’t sound like they’re changing it either because that’s something they’d definitely want to mention in their press release.

@Waluigi451 I definitely thought you were about to say “…but the FZero we needed” 😂

…Or you could play Starlink. Finished that for you @nintendolife. Your welcome.

Not a cartoon exactly, but Power Rangers would make a lot of sense. You could play as different variations of characters culled from its 30 year run.

@NinjaNicky Are you talking about Gargoyle’s Quest on Game Boy? That’s completely unrelated. That was based on the NES title Ghosts and Goblins. This is based on a 90s cartoon series.

@Pat_trick That’s the Botox lol

@Andee @Zeropulse @abbyhitter They are only slightly related as they take place 1000 years apart, so you should be good.

I hope they keep multiplayer on Switch this time. It was absent in Turok 2, even split screen.

I remember struggling to remember that game with the catchy music and goofily animated grabs. It turns out I was thinking of Tecmo Bowl.

I love the micro game, I can’t remember what it’s called, but the one where you drop the Wiimote so it dangles from your wrist in Smooth Moves

Is that Marine the Racoon?

@rjejr Trine 4 was released a while back and it reverted back to the style of the first two games.

@Thief There is no Pikmin game by that name.

How are you a Nintendo fan and not like any of their IP? What do you like about them then?
