@FX29 the problem is that the NES Classic is 720p, so it doesn't look quite as good as NSO. I usually play it on NSO, but I keep my NES Classic in reserve just in case...
So I guess they added that to make up for not being able to have a controller with sound effects like the other platforms... Personally, I would like to see them add the game manual scans and the Game Boy Player frames...
I am rather disappointed with this. They should have said "Based on the work of the Donkey Kong Country Returns (original Wii version) development staff at Retro Studios"...
I'm really hoping he will also be Mario's voice in the Super Mario RPG remake. It would also be nice if he took over Mario and Luigi in the Thousand Year Door remake, while Charles Martinet could give Toadsworth some voice clips...
Don't see Kazumi Totaka on the list, so Yoshi definitely has a new voice, which I suspected... I really would have liked if Charles Martinet voiced Toadsworth in the game... I expect he'll still be credited as a voice director, consultant, or something along those lines...
We knew Bowser would be in it from the trailer. That summary doesn't tell us anything that isn't essentially what Mario games have pretty much always been!
I did! My Treeko in Sapphire was named Chico, an Aron named Mido, an Electrike named Sparky, and a Chinchow named Patrick to name a few... In Platinum, my Piplup was named Ramón, I had a Hoothoot named Coo, a Goldeen named Kine, a Beautifly named Laura, a Buneary named Joliene, who had a daughter, Regeena, and a Starly named Tokari, among others. When I get Brilliant Diamond, if I get it, I intend to catch and name (most) all the same Pokemon...
Well, Nintendo could simply add a touch panel accessory for the Switch, or make the Switch backwards compatible with the Wii U game pad... Come on, Nintendo, lift your game!
It ONLY has the original 151!? I'm fine with the focus being on them, but they really should have included the pre-evolved and evolved forms as well. For example, in locations you would have found Pikachu in red or blue, you should have a 50-65% chance of encountering a Pichu instead...
"From a strategy perspective, as a publisher, we are doing this game. From a financial perspective and cost of capital perspective, it makes sense for Atari to try and test some new sources of funding to see if these sources could be available down the road for more games."
Translation: They don't want to spend money, so they just want us to foot the bill instead!

Re: Switch Online's GBA App Has Been Updated (Version 3.0.0)
@themikestur87 better yet, we should get the Game Boy Player borders!

Re: Retro Staff Credits Removed From Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, Forever Entertainment Confirmed As Devs

Re: Retro Staff Credits Removed From Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, Forever Entertainment Confirmed As Devs
@Dee123 of course, the movie remakes don't even do so much as a 'Based on the work of the original (movie) development staff'!

Re: Mario & Luigi's New Voice Actor Has Been Revealed
I'm really hoping he will also be Mario's voice in the Super Mario RPG remake. It would also be nice if he took over Mario and Luigi in the Thousand Year Door remake, while Charles Martinet could give Toadsworth some voice clips...
Re: Rumour: Mario's New Voice Actor May Have Been Discovered
Don't see Kazumi Totaka on the list, so Yoshi definitely has a new voice, which I suspected... I really would have liked if Charles Martinet voiced Toadsworth in the game... I expect he'll still be credited as a voice director, consultant, or something along those lines...

I'd expect they would save MK9 for that next-generation successor to the Switch...
