While this is cool, I wish they gave us other options to listen to their music. I like my game soundtracks to be in my main music collection so I can have it all in one place. I don't mind paying for the privilege to be able to do this but Nintendo don't offer a way of purchasing or streaming outside of this app.
@vinicity I read it as that too and then I also noticed that the English on the yellow sticker also says Diving Shot so not sure where they got "Driving" from.
I tried to play this game but it's so archaic. It seems the only thing they updated were the graphics (which are still pretty average) and they haven't really done anything to improve the overall user experience. I'd easily rate it a 4/10 and this is from someone who loves JRPGs.
It's a shame that I've already played most of the games for the SNES that I'm interested in. Because of that there are only 4 games that I'm interested in. Hopefully the games I want will eventually be on the Switch's virtual console when it launches.
More games would have probably been sold if they were at reasonable prices. There's a couple of games I want but I'm unwilling to pay the asking price for. Bomberman R and Puyo Puyo Tetris. The most I'd be willing to pay for either is £25. I hope the price for the digital versions get dropped in the future.
I hope that after a year or so they release a physical collection of these Neo Geo games. I'd happily pay £50 if they did a really good collection of 15 games.
@liljmoore British accent? I can assure you that sounds nothing like any real British accent I've ever heard. The actress is American I believe. Patricia Summersett is her name. In my opinion Zelda's voice is the worst. It sounds so bizarre. It just sounds fake.
@vincentgoodwin The daycare won't let you breed legendaries. I am yet to actually collect a level 100 promotional Pokemon because of this. I see no point. I'd rather have it at level 1 haha.
I really hate how they come at level 100 most of the time. It means I would have no reason to use them so they would just sit in the bank doing nothing...forever.
As long as it doesn't end up exclusive to the Xbone I'm happy. It's the only console I don't have and I don't plan on getting one. I would prefer it on the Wii U though just so I can use the Gamepad.
@pamplemousse_mk it has nothing to do with technical difficulties, it is due to licensing issues with the Super FX chip. The Super FX chip was created by Argonaut Games who hold the copyright for it.
It would be great if these games came to the Virtual Console. I always wanted this console as a kid but my parents said "You either have this and only this, or you can wait until the Gameboy Advance is released and have that. You can't have both."

I can't find the Sega games anywhere on my Switch 2. Are they not available?

@Serpenterror actually, the first time was when Sony provided the sound processor for the SNES
Re: Poll: What's The Best Game Boy Color Game?
@Yoshisaur The reason it probably got so little support is because the Gameboy Advance came out 2 and a half years later

Is there any way to save your progress on this game or do you have to play from start to finish in one sitting?

Re: Mario Party: The Top 100 Trailer Showcases Modes and amiibo Functionality
If this was coming out on the Switch then I'd buy it. It would be great to play 4-player in front of the TV.

It could just as easily be a Wii U game since the Wii U also has a stylus.

Now it will be interesting to see what other GBA games come out on the virtual console in the coming months if any.

Re: Hardware Classics: SNK Neo Geo Pocket Color
It would be great if these games came to the Virtual Console. I always wanted this console as a kid but my parents said "You either have this and only this, or you can wait until the Gameboy Advance is released and have that. You can't have both."
I think it's pretty obvious which one I chose.

@Starwolf_UK They only usually stock 2 different toys a week but you can ask what toys they have before you buy so you know what you're getting
