@jojobar cool, cheers for the heads up

Ok, but what about DQ3? Are they going to announce a Switch 2 edition? Will the Switch 1 version save be recognised by both S1 and S2 versions of DQ1+2?

Because DQ3 HD2D is on sale this week and I’ve been tempted…

Mickey looks off-brand in the US version

@PKDuckman interesting…. Cheers for the info

Awesome expansion, but why stop there? Let me know if they add PC/Amiga Worms 1+Reinforcements, Worms 2 and non-GBA World Party, make it a Full Can O’Worms Collection.

Anyone know, does this version allow custom sounds etc? I used to love changing the voices on the old PC titles.

Got it, thanks!

@Aki77 huzzah. I was always disappointed that the Wii couldn’t do it

But can you also do the squeaky cube startup screen?

@jolteon23 it was pretty easy until the last quarter, when it jumps a fair bit, but grinding for EXP is still possible.

Compared with Fire Emblem, I don’t miss the permadeath, but I do think the battle pace is a little slower.

@jolteon23 I’ve been enjoying it, though I’m up to the final 2 battles (I think) and starting to think maybe I’ve not levelled up enough of my squad

@Mana_Knight gotta be honest, the first time it changed for me, I was terrified too, and I’m in my forties…. Simple but effective.

Apparently the lying is more obvious in the original Japanese dialogue, but got lost in translation. I’ve been following a walkthrough to avoid those problems. Normally I’d prefer not to, but I’m working on the basis that the translators already broke the developers’ intended experience, so it’s okay

So you’re expecting a thoroughly retro Direct then…?

Eh? Eh? No-one?

@Zuljaras haha, nice one, you win! 😀

@Zuljaras hehe, started and cleared it today. Maybe 3 hours?

@Zuljaras Belmont’s Revenge is next up on my backlog. Race ya!

So none of the Game Gear / Master System games, no Chaotix or 3D Blast or Pocket Adventure or Advance 1 or the Rivals or storybook games, but Sonic Shuffle gets in? Pshaw

Or maybe this was a performance option they explored for Switch 1, didn’t work satisfactorily, and they binned it but left traces in the code…?

I’m thinking it’ll be Switch 1, but the Direct will show how to performs on both consoles, to highlight the improvements. And they’ll confirm “select titles will have a free upgrade patch on NS2”

WHY NOT BOTH?!?!

Please excuse the shouting, but why does it have to be either/or? Why not keep the NSO subscription model, but add an option to buy the individual titles as well?

In a truly ideal world there’d be a third option where they recognise purchases on the Wii/Wii U/3DS VCs from your Nintendo account and let you download thm as individual titles without paying another premium, but that’s clearly wishful anti-commerce thinking

Whether they beat the PS2 or not is, to me, slightly less important than beating the DS and becoming Nintendo’s most successful piece of hardware to date, utterly flipping the narrative after the dark times of the Nintendoomed Wii U.

Hate the faces on the Japanese one, but feel like a map is a better indicator of the game. I’m getting Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon feels from that. I look at the top one and expect an action-packed Golden Axe clone
