I wanted to like it 20 years ago. I tried again.
Over hyped game probably just because of the poor n64 offer where being “good enough” is better than nothing.
Controls are weird which is a common thing on n64 as developers were forced to use a weird controller… graphics are very blurred, missions are just nothing special.

If it wasn’t on n64 and if it wasn’t 64, probably not many people would remember about this game.

Sorry for being harsh

@Big_Round_Robin some of the best vn ever. Phoenix Wright with a tweak.

as long as they are high budget quality games I am happy
PS2 Altered Beat and Golden Axe were a disaster...

I would love to have:

• a simple HD port of Skies of Arcadia
• a VR monkeyball
• Phantasy Star 5. Not an online game... a real AAA JRPG

House of the dead was not very good... Panzer Dragon remake was eventually interesting but launched broken.
Sega at the moment is making solid Yakuza games and some fillers. They really need to change pace

I love it. I miss Avalanche

Unlocked everything in the basic game. Not sure I want to feed the addiction

Correct, which is why the question is not about the emulator but the specific games. If they are smart… they pick the games that run well on their emulator. The megadrive mini runs beautifully but only with few games. And they were smart enough to put games which run well.
Fzero run perfectly since many years ago. How come they it has slowdowns on switch?? Unacceptable.
Majoras mask always had problems, very good example. Still, if a freeware open source emu run a game well, unacceptable that years later a paid official emu has problems. Do we agree on this?

On switch I appreciate that they run on a poor emulator but Nintendo improved it over the time. The experience got better.
I still don’t understand why you either choose American covers or the whole Europe and US together. Such a messy presentation for a paid emulator. This is basic.

@DaniPooo something I find fascinating is that some consoles have been perfectly emulated for decades… in the “pirate” world emulators are perfect for those consoles. Then you move to the big companies and emulation performance is crap… same games, same consoles, been emulated for decades, emulators are even open source in many cases.
I understand the difficulty. But in some cases really there no excuses when there are so many good examples in front of us and them (the programmers).
The worst example is the poor emulation of the ps1 classic. Totally crap. No excuses.

Not trying to be malicious. But here we have poor emulation of something which has been flawlesy emulated for over a decade… just stating the facts. Seriously.
When you see how poor is the megadrive collection (the paid one, not the online)… makes you wonder what are they doing.
These are money grabber, done in economy and you see it from the final result.

@Link-Hero I don’t think I was harsh… it is objectively a poor job. Not asking to emulate 3DS on Steamdeck… asking to emulate well something that free emulators do already very well since what, 10 years? 15years?
Not emulating properly 16 consoles is just unacceptable in 2023. In this case it is a flipping n64… not even asking a programmer to create a perfect emulator which can be difficult given the number of games and things to consider. Here they specifically picked some games, and make the run poorly. Embarassing… free emulators do a better job already. That’s why I am pissed.
If you are not able to make a good job at least be smart and pick the games that run well with your software, like what Sega did with the mini console (it has a poor emulator, but all the games included run decently, so no embarrassment)

@Link-Hero
Exactly. After 20 years those games have been emulated in and out. I still argue how comes that even Genesis collections run poorly when a 20 years old pc runs them flawlessly. Lazy, just lazy.
N64 emulation on Switch is incredibly poor. Poor selection of games and poor performance. How is it possible that fzero runs with a choppy Framerate? No excuses…

How can they mess up such an old game??

Totally random game. LoL

These games literally cost 1 pound second hand on ps3/ps4. Or a few quid new.
Why on earth should people spend for the full price on switch?? Unless it is the only console they own.

I keep wii u just to play wii games with hdmi… and the Zelda hd ports. For the rest it is pretty useless

@Bustacap 😂

Next poll: what is the best trigger button. L or R

Poor selection. Seriously. Who wants to play harvest moon 64. Give us some serious stuff

Lets be honest most of them aged very poorly to the point of being barely playable.
Goldeneye plays terrible for today’s standards.
N64 graphics could have been cool 20 years ago but really ahed poorly…. Blurried, blocky, for some reason ps1 games aged much better.
I would love to play conker but the xbox version.

@GOmar that’s a shame. Very basic package though. Nice cover art. That’s it. Gamecube original is another league

And here you go. The physical is basically a plastic waste.

Hare one. Both are very similar and very good

If only they were available to buy..

American is very good but generic
European is just iconic

@Captain-N i agree with you. Providing such a low quality porting (remake call it how you want) is disgraceful. Super simple games…

How is it possible to have such a poor conversion of games which are 30 yrs old and always played fine?

Scraping the bottom of the barrel I see. Thank you for nothing Nintendo. With all the possible choices this is almost pointless. I feel they simply want to be cheap, not spending a penny in licenses; not risking to give you a proper game before you just use retro games instead of buying new ones.

Very positively surprised. I did not such a great game, possibly because the 2D mario games were often bland and not super inspired.

@demacho yes 😀 the part I hated the most was the voice acting. Story was stupid but hey…. Children movie I could not expect a k-drama plot 😂

@demacho no, bought the bluray for one pound. Gave it to a charity shop 😂

I recently played hitman 2 and ages very poorly. Will skip this.

I really want to watch it. I was afraid of a live action like detective pikachu. This is interesting.

The new lego fabuland. This brings back good memories

1000fps? Yawn
10 are usually enough on switch. Happy

Both are nice. But ds look charming with charisma. Switch looks generic

Very microsoft. If you cant beat them. Buy them.

It confirms how poor it was
Paper mario is good though

Must buy, simple

Too late. Finished and dusted. Loved it though… sad fixed are coming so late

nice touch inside, boring for the rest. pokemon and zelda were better

Having a blast. I would have never said

Smt5 deserves more appreciation. It is stunning at times. Overall solid

Too many. Love the series but lost interest due to the many redundant entries

I find it hard to play old gameboy rpg/adventure games. The world has moved on and the look/feel hard to enjoy.

Right price is about a tenner or less… love the game and love physical. But 45 is a no no

GX is the best
and by FAAAAAR, from any point of view

@Bobb exactly.
For 50 pounds while on ps3 the same collection was sold for 15… ok without some of the added useless games and stuff.
Money grabbers… which is sad because those games are fire

So just a code in a box?
I will wait for some heavy discount.
This collection is worth anyway 10/15 euros like it’s price on ps3 🤷🏻‍♂️

give me metroid 4 and persoan 3, then you can close the direct
thaaaanks

I bought things already from them. As said, I think they simply import like a broker.
Often high prices, but often surprisingly low.

@Aelynn also other shops like coolshop (not the best, I think it is a trader... but bought already from them). In europe amazon has it in preorder
