A known clickbait YouTuber started hard pushing may 15th last week before this guy. We’ll see, we have 16 days left till the direct, maybe just be patient.
From what I understand FF6 amounts to about half of the Pixel Remaster sales. Still impressive as that means each one sold about 830k on average and even if FF6 is half the sales it’s still about 500k per entry between 1 to 5.
Don’t think this will be good for Pokemon GO, Pikmin Bloom and Monster Hunter Now seeing how Saudi devs treat SNK. We’ll see, always skeptical when Saudi Arabian Emirates invest massively in pop culture media.
I just beat Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii on Ps5, close to the platinum too as I only have a handful of things left like 3 more crewmates, beat amon, donthe minatonsubstories and complete the baseball minigame.
Besides that I started playing Bakeru on my Switch which I’m thoroughly enjoying at the moment.
The plan is to start either Sea of Stars or Star Wars: Jedi Survivor after.
@jimnorman the legends games are mainline. Think like how both 2d and 3d zelda and mario are mainline and how both the metroidvania and prime metroids are mainline.
Legends co-exists as a second type of mainline series alongside the traditional entries (this has been confirmed by TPC and GameFreak)
@wanghosom like Pushsquare mentioned. Digital Ps5 sales have taken off tremendously since in Japan. It’s also kinda an unfair comparison when the ps5 is nowhere near as popular as the switch in Japan. Let’s celebrate this rare win for PlayStation instead of going “Switch did it better”
While they’re not credited as such by Sega RGG is also and has always been (since before they where called RGG) the developer of Monkey Ball (since the arcade original). And they’re supposedly also developing Virtua Fighter 6.
Comparing Palworld to games that blatantly steal assets from pokemon is kinda silly and malicious.
It’s like saying “watch out It Takes Two” after Take-Two Interactive manages to strike down someone reselling GTA III on the google play store.
Trying to beat The Messenger on Switch, I’m already at the end apparently. Also started Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii on Ps5 and I started a second route in Fire Emblem Warriors Three Hopes on Switch.
@TCKuma the ps3 original is amazing. It’s sad the remaster is a broken buggy mess that didn’t bother with licensing the old soundtrack and had the developers straight up block Gunn and Suda from any involvement when they offered to help out with licensing the music to maintain the original experience.
I’m excited for this one. I heard the premise will be Deadly, atleast Six times as exciting as the previous one. I don’t want to get Lost in the World of these movies.
“The PC original” @JimNorman I assume you meant the PSP original? PC version is a port of the PSP game. The sky trilogy was a psp exclusive inititially.
From what I understand DK64 is hell to emulate due to a slowdown bug that makes mandatory minigames incompletable which is present in basically all emulators, both official and unlicensed.
@olliemar28 this isn’t a pokemon knock off. It’s a knock off of the viral steam hit TCG Card Shop Simulator which is an actual great game. Ps5 has had issues with both Card Shop Sim knock offs and Supermarket Sim knockoffs lately a lot too.
It’s time the official products make the jump to psn and the eshop.
@Broosh the review was made by a professional critic. This list is user voted and automatically rearranges based on average user scores. No contradictions at all.
Every opening statement of every NintendoLife list starts with this information.
@Savage_Joe they already returned to Dragon Engine for Gaiden and 8 and said they’re never returning to UE due to bad experience. Although saying they returned to DE is a bit deceptive. It’s basically Dragon Engine 2 which is why Gaiden and 8 run much better.
If pacing issues is such a big con I expect NintendoLife to review this entire franchise low sadly.
I’ve played all games including stuff like FotNS: Lost Paradise and Judgment and these games just constantly interrupt you with cutscenes, side stuff and more. I don’t think that’s a bad thing honestly.
@Anti-Matter shouldn’t you avoid it because Looney Tunes consistently crosses over with 18+ franchises? The last movie for example had Rick & Morty, A Clockwork Orange and IT/Pennywise. And it the shows they’ve crossed over with DC Comics and horror characters.
@nessisonett can’t argue “go woke go broke” when something is successful. By the time these people found out BG3 is “woke” they already missed their window so they didn’t even try.
@IceClimbersMain there is a physical with everything on the cartridge except for this update. Released late last year that’s €40 and often on sale for €20<. Highly doubt they’re gonna do another one.
@DripDropCop146 switch is missing 3 mainline games, not 2. There’s 2 mainline games that bear the number 2, technically P3, 4 and 5 are actually 4, 5 and 6.
The concept art for MvC2 is some of my favorite. It’s the main reason I still sometimes start the ps2 version despite my main way to play being Dreamcast. Well soon I’ll have the best of both worlds on switch and ps4.
SNES was considered retro when it was barely 10 years old.
DS, Psp, Ps3, wii and X360 are all between 18 and 20 years old and yet people hold stand fast they’re not retro yet.

Re: Chances Are You've Never Heard Of Nightdive Studio's Latest Switch Rerelease
Actually a friend of mine owns an incredibly rare original boxed copy which is how I know of the game.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (15th March)
Just beat Bakeru on Switch half an hour ago. Debating on wether to continue Jedi: Survivor on Ps5 or wether to start Sea of Stars on the Switch.
Re: Dadish Dev's Adorable Gravity-Bending Platformer Jumps Onto Switch Today
@sdelfin thanks for the headsup. My laptop is outdated and I prefer playing on Switch but I appreciate you let me know regardless.

Re: PSA: Don't Be Fooled, This Blatant Rip-Off Isn't The 'Content Warning' You Want On Switch
I’m so out of loop with viral games these days.
I assume this is the newest hit with streamers, youtubers and influencers?
Re: Dadish Dev's Adorable Gravity-Bending Platformer Jumps Onto Switch Today
I just wishlisted all Dadish games on the eshop. Will wishlist this one too.

Re: Anniversary: Nintendo Switch Launched On This Day Eight Years Ago
Been there since day 1, bought 253 physical games and a good 70 digital games, it’s my most played console alongside my ps5.
I’ll be there day 1 for Switch 2 again, it was my best purchase and the OLED made it even better.

Re: Poll: Which Pokémon Game Really Deserves A Remake Next?
@TheRazzBerry in that case Crystal would be next in line since LGPE was a remake of Yellow, not FRLG.
Re: Poll: Which Pokémon Game Really Deserves A Remake Next?
Well if we go by literal tradition and patterns it’s factually Black & White.
That one is next in line literally. My guess is for Switch 2 in 2027 after gen 10 in 2026.

Re: Gallery: Here's A Closer Look At The London Pop-Up Pokémon Center's Exclusive Merch
It’s all gonna sell out in a week and eBay will be filled with everything at 50x markups. Tis a sad world for Pokemon fans.

Re: Nintendo Sets Up New Subsidiary In Taiwan
Good that they’re opening local subsidiaries but then why close Nintendo of Benelux and fuse them into Nintendo of France and Nintendo of Germany?
Re: Nintendo Will "Likely" Price The Switch 2 At $399, Says Analyst
My guess is still €350 to stay competitive

Re: Sonic The Hedgehog Will Be Back For A Fourth Movie

Re: Looks Like Fire Emblem & Paper Mario Dev Intelligent Systems Is Hiring
@alanahagues like @SlasherZ said TTYD on Switch is a remake, not a remaster.

Re: Doronko Wanko Lets You Play As The Messiest Puppy Ever On Switch
finally a dog game with cat game energy. And ofcourse it’s a pomeranian!
Re: Random: Breaking Fortnite's 'No Emote Zone' Rules Now Comes With Some Hefty Consequences
@nuff64 Switch 2 please save my portable Fortnite experience!
I mainly play it on ps5 because switch is just way too bad.
However I do like to organize my locker presets on Switch.

Re: Reaction: Rest Easy, Folks, Your Switch Backlog Ain't Going Anywhere
@IronMan30 my guess is an FPS boost system like ps5 and XSX have and the ability to run games in their docked performance while portable.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (26th October)
Just beat Ys VIII: -Lacrimosa of DANA- this morning and started playing Dino Crisis.
Might continue playing Mega Man 8 and I was thinking about starting Banjo-Tooie

Any day now 😭
I’m patient
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (5th October)
Beat Mr Mosquito and Secret Agent Clank on Ps5 last week, including the platinum for Mosquito. Also beat Mega Man III on Switch/NSO.
Currently playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice.
The plan is to start something for spooky month after. Maybe the original Ps2 Silent Hill 2 Director’s Cut or Luigi’s Mansion 3 on Switch.

Re: Anniversary: Nintendo Is 135 Years Old Today
Hoping we get something special for Mario’s 40th anniversary next year!
Mario Kart 9 and Super Mario Odyssey 2 maybe?
Re: Random: Horror Master John Carpenter Heaps Praise On Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown
@nessisonett can’t argue “go woke go broke” when something is successful.
By the time these people found out BG3 is “woke” they already missed their window so they didn’t even try.
Re: Random: Horror Master John Carpenter Heaps Praise On Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown
Carpenter is very open about being a gamer and has expressed in the past he prefers gaming as a medium over movies. Not surprised.
Re: Freedom Wars Remastered Could Potentially Lead To A Sequel
I doubt Sony would greenlight a sequel. I’m already surprised they allowed Bamco to publish a remaster and bring it to Switch.
Re: Dead Cells' Final Update Arrives Next Month
@IceClimbersMain there is a physical with everything on the cartridge except for this update. Released late last year that’s €40 and often on sale for €20<.
Highly doubt they’re gonna do another one.
Re: Surprise! New Splatoon 3 amiibo Are On The Way
@Ryu_Niiyama neither do I yet Splatoon Amiibo are so cool I keep buying them.
Re: Review: Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition (Switch) - Speed-Focused And Slight, But Addictive
Nintendo NL canceled my pre order and since the European version was limited supply I guess I won’t be playing it.
Re: Best Persona Games On Switch And Nintendo Systems
@DripDropCop146 switch is missing 3 mainline games, not 2.
There’s 2 mainline games that bear the number 2, technically P3, 4 and 5 are actually 4, 5 and 6.
Re: Gallery: Check Out The Stunning High-Def Character Art For Marvel Vs. Capcom Collection
The concept art for MvC2 is some of my favorite.
It’s the main reason I still sometimes start the ps2 version despite my main way to play being Dreamcast.
Well soon I’ll have the best of both worlds on switch and ps4.
Re: Lollipop Chainsaw's Remake Scores A Sweet Release On Switch This September
@Cronodoug it isn’t rare at all on ps3 and 360. Just ridiculously expensive which says nothing about rarity.
Otherwise Pokemon emerald, a game selling 10m+ copies, would be crazy rare.
Re: Talking Point: How Do You Define 'Retro'?
SNES was considered retro when it was barely 10 years old.
DS, Psp, Ps3, wii and X360 are all between 18 and 20 years old and yet people hold stand fast they’re not retro yet.
Just weird. They’re very much retro to me.
Re: Random: Nintendo Emulator 'Delta' Changes Its Logo After Heat From Adobe
This is funny because delta’s logo is the letter delta and adobe’s logo is the letter A written like the letter delta.
