Looked almost like AC x Minecraft to me. Didn’t excite me, but it’s Animal Crossing. I have faith it will be awesome. The delay is a real bummer. The one bad thing in the direct.
Here's a crazy thought... how about Nintendo creates something - I don't know, let's call it a virtual console - where we can buy and play Gamecube games on the Switch?
Can't believe they made it through that whole press release without mentioning Hori. This is clearly a rip-off... and I mean that in a good way. Hope these match the Hori's quality, with an affordable price.
Born to Haitian immigrants in the Bronx, grew up to be the American face of a huge Japanese company. Made his $$$, and now set off to enjoy life. Dang, we should all be so lucky. Personally, I expect him spend much time designing MM2 levels and uploading them for us all to play.
Good list, but really need SC5-2 rather than SC5, and CT rather than CT-2. CT has been ported, but without the Offspring. What we need is Crazy Taxi with original music.
A few others we need: Ikaruga, Grandia 2 and a personal favorite - Toy Commander
Games TM was one of the best gaming magazine - heck, one of the best magazines period, I've ever read. Sad to see it closing. On the other hand, I totally get it. Heck, I haven't bought a copy in years.
1:13 "I'm not saying it absolutely isn't real".... actually, that's kinda exactly what you (or your headline writer) is saying Besides, these pictures are on the internet, and if you can't trust the internet, who can you trust?
I’m am SOOO guilty of this. The only progress I’ve been able to make is stopping myself from buying a sequel to a game when I own the original and haven’t touched it yet.
This is great news. These are some great games and it’s going to be fun seeing what the other 15 are. Personally, I could care less who copied who. But it’s funny to see people talking smack on the very night Nintendo laches it’s online service just a wee bit after similar services from Sony ad MS
Amiibo are such a rip off, even at base prices. Then there is the deliberate scarcity to make them seem desirable and makes ebay scalpers rich. And..... there are about 10 I want to bad but they are never in stock!!!!
@JustaRottenGirl It's two dollars. If it makes people happy, let it be. Just be like me and refuse to play these pay-to-collect mobile games. Now excuse me while I go organize my amiibo cards.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Finally Shown Off For Nintendo Switch, Delayed To 2020
Looked almost like AC x Minecraft to me. Didn’t excite me, but it’s Animal Crossing. I have faith it will be awesome. The delay is a real bummer. The one bad thing in the direct.
Re: Secret Of Mana 3 Remake Coming To Nintendo Switch, Collection Of Mana Out Now
Really excited for the Mana collection. Highlight of a pretty good direct
Re: Sega Surprises With Mini Mega CD, 32X, And Cartridges For Sega Mega Drive / Genesis Mini
Rumor (pulled out of my butt) these "cosmetic only" add-ons will have RFID chips that will unlock secret games
Re: Feature: The Best Shmups On Nintendo Switch
All the Psikyo shooters need to be on the list. Not just 1945, which IMO is one of the weaker games though still excellent.
Re: Random: Xbox's Major Nelson Seemingly Confirms The Next DLC Character For Dragon Ball FighterZ
Does Roger Healey know about this?

Re: Retro-Bit's Tribute64 Controller Can Be Used With The N64 Or Your Switch
Can't believe they made it through that whole press release without mentioning Hori. This is clearly a rip-off... and I mean that in a good way. Hope these match the Hori's quality, with an affordable price.

Re: Sega Announces Mario & Sonic At The Tokyo 2020 Olympics For Nintendo Switch
I'm probably one of the few who was genuinely upset at the last of a Mario/Sonic game for 2018. Can't wait to pick up the 2020 version.
Note - while the Mario/Sonic/Olympic games are hit and miss, the London and Sochi versions are fabulous game whether you are into the series or not.

Re: Hands On: Getting Arty In Yoshi's Crafted World On Nintendo Switch
Wooly World was massively more fun co-op than single player. I assume this will be the same, so I'd encourage people to wait for that before judging.
Re: Talking Point: Is The Remake Of Zelda: Link’s Awakening Worth $60?
$60 for a GameBoy game? Put me down for "no"
Re: Final Fantasy IX Is Out On Switch Right Now, Final Fantasy VII Launches 26th March

Need: Low price. Want: 3DS compatibility

Re: Damon Baker Departs Nintendo After 12 Years
Looks like somebody got caught making fun of Reggie's Japanese
Re: Feature: 20 Dreamcast Games We'd Love To See On Nintendo Switch
Good list, but really need SC5-2 rather than SC5, and CT rather than CT-2. CT has been ported, but without the Offspring. What we need is Crazy Taxi with original music.

Re: Lots Of Rare amiibo Figures Appear To Be Getting Re-Runs For Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
No Bayonetta 1/2? Cool, that saves me a few bucks
Re: UK Gaming Magazines GamesMaster and GamesTM Set To Close Next Month
Games TM was one of the best gaming magazine - heck, one of the best magazines period, I've ever read. Sad to see it closing. On the other hand, I totally get it. Heck, I haven't bought a copy in years.
Re: Video: See SNK 40th Anniversary Collection's First Set Of Free DLC Games In Action

Lots of great games to chose from. I’d like to see Runbo
Re: Feature: The Nintendo Switch Games That Could Work In VR
Sheesh... all these people being negative about VR. I'm sure it will prove just as popular in the long run as 3D and motion control gaming.
Re: Soapbox: Why Do We Want More Games When We've Already Got Too Many?
I’m am SOOO guilty of this. The only progress I’ve been able to make is stopping myself from buying a sequel to a game when I own the original and haven’t touched it yet.
Re: Random: Someone Just Sold An Early Copy Of Super Mario Party On eBay For $7,100
No idea if this particular auction is legit or not, but $1,700 wouldn't be that much to pay for an early copy. If you are a pirate.
Re: Video: The "Completely Insane" Policies Of Nintendo President Hiroshi Yamauchi
You know what's insane? Not releasing Mother 3 in English.
Re: Capcom Announces Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy For Nintendo Switch
This gets us one step closer to having him in Smash. He'd be an awesome assist, no?
Re: Sony Responds To Nintendo's Success With Its Very Own PlayStation Classic Mini Console
This is great news. These are some great games and it’s going to be fun seeing what the other 15 are. Personally, I could care less who copied who. But it’s funny to see people talking smack on the very night Nintendo laches it’s online service just a wee bit after similar services from Sony ad MS
Re: Sega Mega Drive Classics Is Coming To Switch This Winter With Exclusive Features
We get to keep these right? We don’t have to keep paying forever and ever only to see Sega snatch them back when we decide to stop. What a concept!?
Re: This Is Pool Brings "Genre-Defining" Cue Sports Simulation To Switch In Early 2019
Yes, I’d love to see more realistic sports games on the Switch. Not sure what that has to do with pool however
Re: Play Nintendo Switch Online Games In Style With These Official Wireless NES Controllers
The bad news is this means we almost certainly aren't getting any SNES, much less N64 or CGN for Switch. Boooo
Re: Nintendo Restocks Super Smash Bros. amiibo In The UK Ahead Of Ultimate's Launch
Amiibo are such a rip off, even at base prices. Then there is the deliberate scarcity to make them seem desirable and makes ebay scalpers rich. And..... there are about 10 I want to bad but they are never in stock!!!!
Re: Video: Lots of Characters Just Won't Make It Into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
So glad Tony Hawk isn’t on this list. There’s still hope.

Re: Random: Warner Bros. Seems A Little Unsure On How The Switch Actually Works
Or maybe they were just using the word disc generically, the way people still talk about albums or records.
Re: Random: Hasbro Launching Officially Licensed Fortnite Nerf Blasters In 2019
