Been a fan of this series since the '98 Dream Match on the PSX. I hope this runs with no hitches on the Switch. BlazBlue CentralFiction needs a friend on my system.

Would you be able to clean off the manure from Biff's car too?

I must admit that no game music has ever made my meat move to the beat. You have my attention.

A paid game with microtransactions AND deception?

There's evil and then there's EVIL.

They're playing the Nintendo ColecoSwitch in a parallel universe right now.

Riju beat Purah in the polls? Many people of good taste have spoken, I see.

So many people dissing the English voice acting while here I am enjoying it despite normally avoiding English dubs like the plague. Might have something to do with me wanting my young children to enjoy watching the game as I play it (which they did immensely). I don't think it's as bad as people say it is.

These moments were gold back when I was an avid player of the franchise. Too bad it started going downhill after Sun and Moon. Not even the Switch spinoffs and remakes were enough to pull me back after the disappointment that was Sword and Shield.

Still, I'm hoping the developers remember what made their past games so good and churn out a winner that pulls me back.

"Yer a swindler, WB."

Metal Gear Solid: Shyster Collection Vol. 1.

Only the smallest parts of the collection are in the game card? This is a whole new level of greed and laziness.

But of course people will buy this enough to justify Konami's practices.

Was Nintendo Life paid to say this is Ghibli-esque, or was this written with no prior knowledge of the studio's works? Either way, that's just poor writing.

@Razzy Yeah, I'm aware Konami has been a stinker as of late, but I prefer giving even them the benefit of the doubt, which is now disappointing given the info you shared. Shame on them.

The deal breaker here is whether or not all the games are in the card. Don't let us down, Konami.

And this is why it's important to properly guide and monitor younger gamers. Parents can't just rely on age ratings and eShop quality vetting, especially these days.

Big deal. Been doing this even faster... with my tongue and two toes minimum.

I, too, am always eager to play with big melons.

On this article: came for the screenshots, stayed for the comments section belief debate.

Every single thing points to a Switch 2 reveal these days.

Just to let you guys know, I don't normally catch a cold, but here I am coughing and nursing a runny nose. I guess that means upcoming Switch 2 reveal, right?

The trailers already screamed "low-effort cash-grab" but they managed to set the bar even lower with the actual release. Amazing.

Then again, what else did we expect from a company that literally admits it's a "game mill?"

All I got from this was, "Our device is so much better than the decades-old device it's emulating."

I'll believe it when I see it... and get a chance to purchase it without too much hassle and financial woe.

This pattern of bad remakes is worrying as I'm waiting for the remake of the third game, which was first FM game I played and have fond memories of.

Fifty Shades of Gary.

Back in the day, I was more concerned with the lore of the first Super Mario Bros. game that states (on the game manual) that the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom were turned into blocks and other overworld elements, so I was technically killing them with each block I destroyed.

Place a bunch of cardboard standees and call it a day. Boom, instant Animal Crossing attraction the fans will eat up.

The place itself is great, but this is just minimal effort.

@Tom-Massey It certainly does. Thanks for the additional information.

@WaffleRaptor01 I was more into Matchbox back then, but never saw a die-cast car I didn't like. They still appeal to me to this day, and I'm glad my son (and due to his influence, my two-year-old daughter as well) has developed the same taste.

Did I miss it, or was there no mention of whether the driving mechanics have been improved? Couldn't get into the first game due to the floaty nature of the driving. Shame, as my four-year-old and I really wanted to enjoy it, as he's into Hot Wheels these days.

A man with that kind of commitment is definitely a keeper.

Stepped down, or booted out?

It couldn't have all disappeared, as Hyrule is still using bits and pieces of them, like the retractable claws on the Skyview Towers.

My headcanon is that they just broke them apart and repurposed them for other things, like the towers and the Purah Pad.

I kinda prefer Nook wearing just his blue apron instead.

I think all eShop games should have a demo available... or at least a better process of refunding if that's not feasible.

More bad name blacklisting, perhaps?

I only buy digital for shorter games that I feel don't justify being bought full price physically, or the occasional long game with a very generous discount (like I did with Disgaea 5 Complete back then), so a digital-only console wouldn't appeal to me.

True, the ability to bring all your games with you everywhere is quite convenient, but you only ever play one game at a time anyway. If you have very little focus (or attention span) that you need to constantly switch to a different game each time you boot up, then I don't think the console is the one lacking features.

It's honestly difficult to go back to any other form factor after using Hori's Split Pad Pro for so long, so this one is clearly not for me as far as Joy-Con alternatives are concerned.

Part of the fun of playing video games is having it relate to some aspect of your life (or vice versa), so this show seems like it'll hit the right notes.

Also, that trailer reminded me just how butt-ugly some of the early monster designs were.

That'll be a difficult minifig set to complete.

I'll be happy even with just KK and Resetti.

Scarlet Deceased Salvation.

Any addition to this already content-stuffed game is always welcome. I hope that the next update will freshen the game enough as to warrant a new playthrough.

This is fine. My massive wishlist and backlog will keep me company through the wait.

I hope they make it worth the delay.

It's a Blasphemvania!

Will watch out for this one.

I hope they add the option to assassinate someone using a Switch.

First announced 2021? Wow, hard to believe it's been that long. I hope that it lives up to the massive hype it's been collecting.

Considering how long it took for this one to be released on Switch, those bugs are just plain disappointing. Shame, as I was looking forward to this game as soon as I saw its trailer.

Guess it's time to try it then. Patience rewarded.

A video game RPG based on a board game RPG designed to be like a video game RPG. Full circle.

So a Soapbox article on Nintendo Life only needs a wish for something to be on a Nintendo console to be allowed?

A little too early, but still in time for the Christmas season.

There's really something pleasing about old logos and their fonts that modern ones often fail to capture.

@fenlix Ah, that explains it. Thanks for the clarity.
