@Zeropulse If you’ve never played a Klonoa game before, then I would recommend playing the first one. The Wii version that came out in 2008 is fantastic, and of course can be played on the Wii U, although finding a copy these days is hard and they are expensive too. Highly recommend it if you can get your hands on one. Or just wait for it to be released on Switch.
I absolutely love Klonoa. Hardly anyone ever mentions it, but it’s such a fun little game, and I was happy to see it included on this list. I replay it every now and then because it just puts a smile on my face.
This is gunna be a disaster because Atari is so unfocused and has no clear vision of who this system will be for. The Intellivision Amico is the complete opposite. They know what market they are going after, and they will be much more successful. It won’t even be close.
@Anti-Matter Good point, if you live in Indonesia then yes it may be much more expensive. But the game is so damn incredible you should buy it anyway. Seriously, it’s that fantastic.
Still my all time favorite video game. And I’m a gamer from the Atari days. It’s just so damn fun and satisfying to play. Galaxy 1 is great, but I enjoyed 2 a whole lot more.
This is the game that got me back into gaming after years of not playing anything and will forever be one of the best games I’ve ever played, if not THE best. I also played this before I played the first Mario Galaxy, so I prefer Galaxy 2. I do think it depends on which game you played first as to which one you prefer, but they are both great games in their own right. This is truly a masterpiece and one that could easily be best of the decade.
@CaptnDave I’m with ya! Huge Intellivision fan as I grew up with the system and still play it today. Hope the Amico succeeds, it will add a much needed niche to gaming.
Working through Yoshi. Very fun game, don’t care that it’s on the easy side. And I really don’t understand why so many reviews said the music was annoying and a letdown. I think it’s just fine and it hasn’t bothered me at all. Don’t know what the big deal is about that.
Inside is one of the greatest games I’ve ever played. I highly recommend that to everyone. If you play it, see if you can locate all of the orbs and unlock the secret ending. What an amazing game.
As a dad gamer, I find these games to be perfect to play with my 8 year old son. We love Kirby games and the fact that they are easy presents a great opportunity to play the entire game all the way through to the end and beat it together. We are very much looking forward to this one since we love Return to Dreamland so much. Bring on more Kirby!
@FinalFrog Certainly seems that way. You still haven’t stated if you have a Switch or not. And if you do, why wouldn’t you want to play this game on that system, which is also portable, with a much better screen than the 3DS?
Of course they don’t have plans right now as sales are skyrocketing. I’m sure they will eventually release a revision in the future with upgrades, but not while they are flying off the shelves.
@FinalFrog There’s no reason to be ridiculously defensive. I was asking a simple question so calm down. So I gotta ask you this...how is the 3DS more portable than the Switch, which is also portable? Is it just because the 3DS is a bit smaller in size? Please explain. If this game is coming out for the Switch, you can be pretty sure that it will not be coming out for the 3DS because the Switch is already portable. By the way, I do have a 3DS, but I realized that the Switch is a great system that is going to get a lot of support and new games that my 3DS won’t get, which is going on 7 years old. Your comment suggests that you do not own a Switch because you are wishing the game would come to the 3DS. Thus the simple question...do you have one or not? And if so, why wouldn’t you prefer to play this new game on the Switch?

Re: Here's How The Klonoa Collection Stacks Up Against Wii And PS2 Counterparts
Great games, but played them so many times already. Wish there was a brand new one coming out instead of these remakes.
Re: Klonoa Collection Frame Rate, Resolution And File Size For Switch Revealed
@Axecon These 2 games are 2 of my favorite platformers of all time. Highly recommended.
Re: Talking Point: If 1-2-Switch Sequel Rumours Are Somehow True, How Could Nintendo Improve It?
Well, my kids loved 1-2 Switch.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (April 16th)
On my second play through of Kirby FL. I got 100% on my first file. Awesome game!
Re: Bandai Namco Has Officially Launched Its New Logo
Just make Klonoa 3 and I won’t care what the logo looks like. Thank you.

Oddmar. Fun platformer in the vein of Rayman.

Re: Feature: Every 3D Super Mario Game Ranked
Galaxy 2 all the way. Such an amazing game. Odyssey was too much of a collect-a-thon for me.
Re: Atari Has Looked To Nintendo For Inspiration With Its New VCS Console
This is gunna be a disaster because Atari is so unfocused and has no clear vision of who this system will be for. The Intellivision Amico is the complete opposite. They know what market they are going after, and they will be much more successful. It won’t even be close.
Re: Review: Skelattack - A Likeable Platformer Suffering From A Bit Of An Identity Crisis
I’ve read other good reviews on this though. Might still be fun, if on sale.
Re: Feature: Potential Switch Port Round-Up - The Wii U Games That Haven't Come To Switch
Just port 3D World but get rid of the timer in the game. Add some wrinkles and let people explore a bit more without being timed.
Re: Still On The Fence About Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair? Now's The Time To Strike
@Apportal_SMM2 Absolutely, I totally respect a different opinion. Seems you do too, which is cool.
Re: Feature: Super Mario Galaxy 2 - 10 Years Of Nintendo's Straightest, Greatest Sequel
I think a big factor in which Galaxy game you prefer depends on which one you played FIRST.

Re: Still On The Fence About Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair? Now's The Time To Strike
@Apportal_SMM2 DKCTF gets a 10/10 from me. To each his own, but it is widely known as the best in the series.
Re: Feature: Super Mario Galaxy 2 - 10 Years Of Nintendo's Straightest, Greatest Sequel
@Anti-Matter You can get Galaxy 2 on Ebay for $10-15. That’s not expensive at all. And it’s not rare. There are a ton listed on there right now.
Re: Feature: Super Mario Galaxy 2 - 10 Years Of Nintendo's Straightest, Greatest Sequel

Re: How Well Do You Know Classic '80s Arcade Games?
8/10. I’m surprised how many people here say they never saw T2 or Wreck it Ralph. You people need to watch these great movies!
Re: Still On The Fence About Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair? Now's The Time To Strike
Great game, but not as good as Tropical Freeze.
Re: Hamster Is Adding A Handful Of Data East Classics To The Arcade Archives
BurgerTime was best on Intellivision
Re: Stunning Platformer GRIS Surpasses One Million Copies Sold
Play Inside instead of this. It’s soooo much better.
Re: Feature: Best Nostalgic Switch Games
@Quarth You should definitely give Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair a shot. It’s great and way better than the first one.
Re: Soon You'll Be Able To Try Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair Before You Buy
@T7Hokage017 Then I guess you don’t like quality platformers?

Re: Review: Kirby Star Allies (Switch)
It’s odd that IGN says the game is 60fps, but here they say 30fps. So which is it?

@Robotron2084 If you have a Wii or Wii U, Return to Dreamland is a blast. One of my favorites.

Re: Rumour: Is Little Nightmares Switch-Bound? This LinkedIn Profile Suggests It Might Be
