Tragic how some of us here rightfully feel that smaller indie developers, with employees trying to earn a living both for themselves and perhaps their families, should be protected from harm, but also feel that larger corporations, with a lot more employees trying to earn a living for the same reasons, are fine to harm.

You wouldn't want to be friends with these people if you make it big in this world.

Ocarina of Tears.

Almost time to kneel before my Unicorn Overlord.

I'd buy a Castlevania DS collection if it were a thing.

I'd also go for a re-release of a re-release: Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, but now made compatible with the whole current Pokédex. A guy can dream.

Now if only the majority of that 11,000 wasn't hot garbage shovelware.

I adore my Gen-2 Switch, but come on.

Tried the demo. Something about it didn't click, unlike the original despite lesser graphics and higher difficulty. No thanks.

The Simpsons Hit & Run remaster for Switch confirmed.

@garfreek Thanks for the correction... and also the EXP. Level up!

Here we go again with games connecting online even when gameplay doesn't require it.

Emulation for a current and fully-available console is unreasonable and is clearly just for piracy. I can understand emulation for older unavailable devices, but this is just ridiculous, with equally ridiculous reasoning from its defenders.

I buy physical copies of games I'd like to keep for as long as I like, so unless I can be assured of perpetual ownership and downloadability of a digital game (steep condition, I know), a digital-only game market doesn't appeal to me.

It's this availability limitation that admittedly pushes me towards piracy at the end of a digital game shop's lifespan. Unsavory, but if that's the last resort to get a copy of a purely digital game then so be it.

You know what's even better than overpriced printed paper? VIRTUAL overpriced printed paper!

Never was a fan of this TMNT series, same as my kids (who refer to it bluntly as "ugly Ninja Turtles"). And after Shredder's Revenge, any other TMNT beat-'em-up not in the same style is dead to me. I wouldn't enjoy it and my kids (who would be a major reason why I'd get it) won't even touch it.

Here's hoping a sequel or further expansion to Shredder's Revenge (or even a non-TMNT series using the same style) would be created.

The young and the gullible are their sales demographic. The parents are to blame for the former if they're not restricting their child's purchases, while the latter only have themselves to blame.

Shovelware game publishers are scum, but the above people share part of the fault here.

The demo was quite enjoyable, but this'll have to wait as my budget has already been set for Unicorn Overlord.

I wonder if Abigail will still eat a diamond in this version.

The EU version box art is so metal. More of this please.

Went on a nostalgia trip this weekend and played the Final Fantasy VI pixel remaster. Also tried some eShop demos and immensely enjoyed Unicorn Overlord. Can't wait for its release now. Looks like I've found my next physical purchase.

Probably another anti-pottymouth update.

Infernax has been fun but its final dungeon is stressing me out, so good thing I also have Snowrunner and the Final Fantasy VI pixel remaster to calm me down.

I used to be the market for this, and it does look rather neat, but I'm now at the age when I no longer see the point nor need to impress others with my capability to buy overpriced molded/sculpted plastic.

Dead Cells will survive. For goodness' sake, people are still playing the original Super Mario Bros. despite lack of continued support.

Sure, blame the economy and development costs, because other, more stellar games never have to worry about those.

It seems like it should have a screen, maybe because it reminds me of Retroid's handhelds.

8bitdo's offerings still beat these, hands down.

I'd be content with even just a Sheikah Slate-themed phone case that looks decent and would fit my phone.

Used my accumulated gold points and availed of some discounts to get Octopia, Infernax, Torchlight II, and Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.

But enough talk! Have at them!

Soon it'll be Died Cells.

It's a match made in hell. Don't forget to RSVP for the wedding.

EDIT: Hahah, the exact same thought as @FredsBodyDouble.

It had better be shoes made from Nargacuga hide.

I'm a big fan of both the Fate and Musou/Warriors franchises, but this one didn't do it for me when I played the demo. Not sure why though.

After a bit of playing, just selling off just some of my collected monster parts was already enough to get me a good supply of rupees. I get lacking materials, but I don't get people not having enough rupees for stuff in TOTK.

But of course this guy's a hero to some.

Instructions too complicated, ended up making Tears of the Kingdom 2.

I find game trailers that don't show any actual gameplay on the console they're advertising for to be shady. Why hide the most crucial part of the game... unless there's something to hide?

Lost opportunity to release a Wiinermote back then.

But at least we now have a Juice-Con.

TS2 with TS4 QOL features would be the bomb.

This has been on my wishlist since release, but Taiko no Tasujin: Rhythm Festival and the TaTaCon I bought along with it for Christmas need some love too. First-world problems.

Best viewed from a box seat while snootily using a lorgnette.

Correct: In the face of all these homework-copiers, the Pokémon franchise seriously needs to do better.

Also Correct: Nintendo/The Pokémon Company/Game Freak has the legal right to slap these mods off the face of the planet.

It's all fun and games until Turnip Boy Performs an Act of Terrorism.

We have Pokémon at home.

Definitely NA.

On a side note, maybe because it's been so long since I last played the game, but I don't recall Triceratons being in the game. Were they?

Let's all have a hearty laugh once the court throws this case out.

Then again, dumber lawsuits have won before, so...

I sometimes buy digital, sometimes physical, depending on how much I value a game. I'd like to continue doing that, having a choice with what I get to own.

What Ubisoft is suggesting here is straight up Orwellian, and it's sad that they either don't seem to realize it, or they do but don't care.

It seems good enough to wish that it doesn't cross any legal boundaries. I look forward to this game being very expansive and having more of its own identity come next year.

It was then quietly ushered away by men in black suits, the witnesses later silenced.

@Cia Courage is ageless and Power knows no height.

Starring Jared Leto as Link and Tom Hardy as Ganondorf.

Consume enough mushrooms and this is bound to happen.

Step aside, Mario. That unhealthily busty klondike game is exactly what the Switch was created for.
