Meanwhile, over here in America...

@John_Deacon According to some Irish beer company the distinction of longest video game titles goes to the Japan only release deep breath
Summer-Colored High School Adolescent Record – A Summer At School On An Island Where I Contemplate How The First Day After I Transferred, I Ran Into A Childhood Friend And Was Forced To Join The Journalism Club Where While My Days As A Paparazzi Kid With Great Scoops Made Me Rather Popular Among The Girls, But Strangely My Camera Is Full Of Pan** Shots, And Where My Candid Romance Is Going

But to be fair "The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past And Four Swords" is 12 words long and that's pretty close.

@OorWullie dammit you beat me to it

My body is ready

@Xbox_Dashboard I'll grant you that there are some questions regarding the Blizzard stuff but your second point about a "bullseye" is a little strange considering all we know is pyoro's source is that they work for Nintendo of Japan. Beyond that he didn't even know how their own source was getting info so there's not a lot for anyone to go on. The source still seems pretty anonymous to me. Perhaps I'm wrong and this is somehow enough information to single out the true leaker, but I'm pretty sure Nintendo already knew this.

@graviton has he reveled pyoro's identity? Pyoro's contact's identity? Seems like they're still quite anonymous to me.

@Xbox_Dashboard Examples?

@timp29 people keep saying this but how are you supposed to keep the anonymity of an anonymous source? Schreier has a long track record of journalistic integrity. If he says he made the terms clear I'm inclined to believe him until it's proven otherwise.

I love Chrono Trigger. It's the game that for my wife into RPGs. That said, while i'd love an HD-2D remake I really think this game deserves a full on 3D blowout.

@Synecdoche with all due respect that is over 25 billion paintings and I think that might actually be too many.

From what I've gathered from the comments retro is "when I personally was a kid and there is no leeway at all I am the arbiter of all temporal matters," so that means that the cutoff is PS1/N64 and just by a hair because I'm 44.
That said, I think at least 20 years makes the most sense. Think of how we classify music as "the oldies" and ask yourself if you'd play Adele or Taylor Swift on an oldies station.

@MinervaX I've got some bad news for you, DQ1 on the NES is about 100 times simpler than FF1 on the NES. I loved both when I was a kid but Dragon Warrior as it was called in the West back then is only about 20 minutes of gameplay with about 4 hours of grinding. There is arguably only one boss and one dungeon in the whole game. Here's a summary of the entire game:

The Dragon Lord is bad go fight him.

@CapitalQ sigh I should've known better than to feed the troll.

@CapitalQ you act like they're running on the same engine or that you know everything about what's going on under the hood to get the games looking and playing the way they do. SMRPG also came out about a decade before TTYD. There's a lot more animation in the background of the latter.

@dodgeskill100 how about today?

@Servbot_EJ I love the world building in that game. I went through a mountain of AA batteries playing that game on the OG Gameboy. Really wish they'd port the 2009 Japanese only DS remake.

This is exactly what I expect and exactly what I want. I hope this is all true.

@Desrever I don't mean to criticize because I still like it very much, but I think you're missing a golden opportunity in your avatar by not having Super Mario World's galoomba in there and also having it labeled "not a goomba"

@GravyThief true, and I typically prefer that as well. The video creator only had like 500 subs yesterday so maybe they were trying not to take potential viewers away from her.

@GravyThief There's a video for you to watch if you're interested.

@Chaos_Knight I came to say this. Nintendo already has other companies making their games, people. Some of them, like Retro, are western.

@Justaguest unless you're collecting human teeth

I really don't like VI - the bloated cast and the magic system that made every character interchangeable in battle. The incredible first half was all I used to play back in the 90s. I usually lost interest after the world blew up. However, even a FFVI hater like myself recognizes Kefka as a great villain.

@Anti-Matter what?

@Maxz thanks, this is well put and now I don't have to poorly try to angrily explain it myself. I would however like to point out that this level also violates the TOS.

@avarisclari well I just bought it because of your comment. It's on sale for 2 bucks so it was a no brainer

@RevengeFan it comes with Nintendo Online for free so they probably want to incentivize subscriptions.

@OorWullie Usually when people post parody lyrics like this they get all weird with the syllables and there's no rhythm at all. You, however, have done very well.

@OnBeingHuman it's primarily because a couple of years ago they increased world height and depth by a significant amount. The game is just getting bigger and it just can't quite run on console hardware anymore, particularly on the Switch. Sadly it will never be "fixed" because it's outgrowing our hardware. It doesn't even run very well on PS4 anymore, but it runs fine on PS5. (The PS5 still has to run the PS4 version, so the software is the same) We'll just have to get more powerful hardware

@Serpenterror We got the Dark Souls remaster and it was excellent. I wouldn't worry too much.

@valcoholic it gets better and better as you go through it. Also if anyone is in the fence about a game that you have to play through multiple times to actually beat, note that this isn't really true. There's a whole second half after you beat it the second time and it's much different than the first "playthrough"

@Cordyceps no, Undertale is because of the Earthbound cult.

@Ryan_Again I also ignored it at first. I thought people were just hot for the sexy maid android. Now I own two copies of the soundtrack (without the incredible music this game is just a 9) and I've already preordered the Switch version.

@GamerDad66 I think it's a good way to go, personally. I love Chrono Cross, but it's really not much of a sequel to Chrono Trigger at all, and they are including Radical Dreamers, which I never, ever thought we'd get in any official capacity. I don't want people going into this, playing Chrono Trigger then getting extremely disappointed with Cross. Best way to go is to release this and Chrono Trigger later. (If we're lucky)

@ManaOwls Agreed. This is exactly what I wanted, an exact rerelease with slightly higher res models.

Castlevania is Konami, not Capcom.

Putting the con in joy-con

@Octane you had to ask... https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/413/265/cee.png

Can I pay to make sure this goes away?

@Yosheel hey guys, I found Karen.

Yucky.

@Agramonte yeah, but then it won't be on Mars.

@Agramonte Better yet, Summoner Re-Mars-tered!

I'm actually surprised, given the similar mechanics, Team Cherry didn't get any crap from From.

These are actually somehow more expensive than the official Nintendo licensed ones. $58.99 will get you an official 128 gb card on Amazon, and since this company's 64 gb is $49.99, we can safely bet that their 128 will be well over sixty dollars.

@Grandvision what about ponytail? Do you think that's Simon Belmont? I guess it's possible, he did have long hair...

@Razieluigi best comment ever.
