Mario of Persia? Looks good

I personally loved Skyward Sword, and would still love to see more of that. Because it was fairly linear, although I've never thought it was especially more linear than many others, it was incredibly well crafted. Breath of the Wild is very, very special, but I maybe because of that i don't necessarily want the next one to follow too closely in its footsteps.

Maybe time to follow up on Link Between Worlds.

In the meantime, I'm much more interested in what's next for Metroid!

Got the standard Nintendo one (with screen protector safely installed, like a sensible person). But I was disappointed by how soft it is. Very disappointed actually. Not great protection.

@Chris77 Oh wow, thanks, that's great info to have

mmm, would so much rather have hardcover than a book box. Weird choice.

Sounds way more like Wii Play than Wii Sports. Sports was great and an actual system seller.

Wii U has such a great set of games. Total quality. Very sad to see Nintendo move on, although also excited for Friday!

My Wii U is going no where though, so many games still to play!

Hoping madly for an HD version of Skyward Sword.

Wow, I was really looking forward to buying it for 9.99, which seemed the only reasonable price point.

So glad to have more Dig. Just loved the first one. Tried to get into Heist, but it just did not click with me.

I always thought it fell apart in the last 3rd.

Also not convinced it will stand up today. It was pretty dated even in 2009. Will need to be more than just a remaster

Man, I love video games!

So nice just seeing all those systems together

I will miss the TV remote feature of Wii U. No one really talks about it, but I love it.

Honestly still pissed that the US gets that great case. would definitely have bought that.

perfect! manageable games rise to the top of the backlog.

I love that the Switch is bringing colour back to consoles

so interested in forma.8 , but man this release timing sucks. no point in getting it at all right now for me, but one day hopefully

I really think the only essential thing day one is a case.

Absolutely loved the original. Completely fantastic, even though it became unforgivingly difficult in the second half.

both Arms and Splatoon have the feeling of a gimmicky toy-line from the late 80's or early 90's.

and I love it.

Oh look, the price it should have launched at!

@FGPackers don't tease! That would be brilliant!

All I want from Jason VandenBerghe is Red Steel 3.

funny, pretty sure most of that was shot in Cape Town, recognised a lot of the locations.

Also - 1-2 Switch is looking worse and worse to me. Seeing actors pretend to enjoy it makes me a little sad.

Been trying to decide which one to preorder - I like the neon blue and red, but the grey seems a little more classy. And specifically I can't help but wonder if its not better to have a neutral colour surrounding the screen when playing.

Any thoughts?

I wonder how long it will be before tech improvments will allow for a truly portable Switch mini?

Looks great!

I absolutely hate that PSN auto plays the video. I do not have killer bandwidth and many times I will be sitting for more than 30 seconds staring at a blank screen waiting for a screenshot to load, when suddenly the video starts.

Why the hell is it prioritising auto play over a user request? It's horrible!

the price on Isaac is as ridiculous to me as the price for Bomberman. Are these games all going to price themselves to death?

That said there is a surprising amount on this list that is of interest to me, at the right price.

I have 0 interet in Issac. Tried on PS+ and found little fun or enjoyment in it.

Cave Story though is probably my most bought game, and I will probably get it again here

I think not. At 20 they could have sold a lot, possibly millions, in that it would have been an easy sell to early Switch adopters with limited choice. Now it's only going to be bought by bomberman fans who also buy a Switch.

Hard no

"and we played Johan Sebastian Joust and thought it was a great idea"

@Anti-Matter now I want that too!

I love the game but am absolutely not buying it again at full price. Especially with paywall multiplayer.

Wii U owners should somehow be able to upgrade cheaply, but that would only be remotely possible with one of those newfangled unified account systems.

I wish the layouts were a little better. And especially that they would drop the page borders, it's such wasted space.

@Nin10doh thanks and yikes!

Never played a Dragon Quest game. Wanted to try 7, but was put off by the length. My time is limited. Any estimates on how long this one takes to get through?

It's a pity, I've been wanting to try this, but unwilling to spend full price on it. And in South Africa it's STILL full price!

What a shame. Looks like it could have been fantastic.

Why would anyone expect Switch to be as powerful as a PS4? It's a tablet!

What a terrible decision that screen is. Absolutely no interest with that.

DIY Retropie remains the best option fro classic gaming, even if it is naughty. I really wish someone would come up with a great legit option.

this is not he shmup I'm looking for...

4 years of indifference, 3 years of excellence and 1 year of failure

looks like it has a way to go, but if it gets fully baked it could be really fun. Shades of bionic Commando in there too.

I was the only person in the audience who laughed at that bit in the Avengers.

@Shiryu wow, you've been busy! Nice

I'm so tempted, I've always wanted to try this sort of thing, but not really sure where I would find the time

@Slim1999 , sure, that's true. Was thinking more of the drone of 3rd party devs saying nothing sells on Wii U, when it was bad ports of Mass Effect or Batman or whatever.

That said - the Zelda examples you use were HD remasters. Definitive editions. So they had value. And Mario All stars is evergreen, although I'm not sure what actual number it sold.

I would just hate for Capcom to release a version of Resi 7 a year and a half late, try to flog it for full price, and then say that nothing sells on Switch.

newsflash: 3 year old ports won't sell well.
