Looks Pretty cool but I’d Rather see Taito do an arcade collection for Switch and other current gen consoles! The chance to play Arkanoid with a trackball controller however is VERY tempting indeed!
Aside from my arcade mentions above, I recently dived into all the Artifex Mundi Adventure games on a chance when one was on sale for $2 Vs the normal $15. Enjoyable games if you like the classic item search and lite story & puzzles (not a big puzzle element guy either) but now I’ve been grabbing them all for $2 a piece lol
@kingbk right the Midway Arcade Origins collection which luckily I have both PS3 and 360 discs but I even downloaded it on 360 which as you probably know, is backwards compatible to play on Xbox one and Series x/s. Bonus! But yea the fact that that collection is 10 years ago is another reason why I don’t see it happening. The awesome classics they own just sit dormant. 😟
@kingbk I would almost KILL for the Midway/Atari arcade classics!! But with Warner Bros Games in such turmoil my hopes are at a low! But wow that would be soooo awesome and the MAIN missing piece of the Switch arcade powerhouse that it already has become. The missing lineup is just insane: Defender Bubbles Joust Gauntlet Paperboy Hydro Thunder Tapper Satans Hollow Gorf Wizard of War Omega Race Stargate Robotron 2084 Smash TV Total Carnage Rampage Toobin Spy Hunter Sinistar Xybots Xenophobe Timber Klax San Francisco Rush Artic Thunder Marble Madness Narc Race Drivin And there’s a ton more!! Oh man that would be awesome! Would love to see Q-Bert too lol
Jesus H Christmas that’s a truckload of games! I think back to 2017 waiting for each weekly update lol. Now I can’t even keep track of them anymore. Even sifting through 800+ games a week that are on sale is a royal pain is the butt especially when the page reloads and brings you back to the beginning again!! 😡 They really REALLY need to update the Switch eshop! Even if it mirrored the Wii U eshop set up that alone would be awesome!! Cmon Nintendo it’s 4 years now. Jeez
I wish we can be told that these games are hitting retail stores while I’m ordering them from Strictly Limited thinking it’s the only way to get them! I mean it Wouldn’t be so bad if SL didn’t take 6 months to a year to ship! 🙄
Other than Joe and Mac - zzzzzzzzz Terrible service & even worse than Wii U was. No game purchase option still?? And oh maybe one day we will see a console more recent the snes??? 😖😣😡🤬
I would hope to see and almost expect at the very least: 1) A new Sonic collection (and not the rehash from the cube Xbox and ps2) with additional and/or more recent games like Dreamcast Sonic Adventure 1&2 2) A remastered Sonic game be it Sonic Heroes, Generations or Colors 3) Dare I say a brand new Sonic entry?? Maybe based on the Sonic Movie?? Would love to see the first 2 happen! Fingers Crossed 🤞🏻
@Toshiro_Baloney great news!! Love me some Takeover! Yea it’s no doubt a solid beat em up and I love the art style. I was pleasantly surprised. SOR 4 is solid though and has the name behind it.
Capcom Beat em up Bundle Castlevania Requiem Symphony/Rondo Hotshot Racing Blizzard Arcade Collection Balders Gate Dark Allinace 1&2 The Takeover Konami Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection GTA Trilogy (ps4) Contra Anniversary collection Ikaruga Raiden V Among many many others that I’d love to see!!
@Marxally that’s true. I really only buy LR games that I’m truly interested in like classics such as the recent Castlevania Collection, Panzer Dragoon etc. Not really big on most of the indie games that they put out .
@Silly_G I know I missed out on Doom 64! Now it’s $80 or better on eBay etc. 🙄 I guess I was hoping to see them toss Doom 64 in here not only for a more complete collection but for those like me who missed out on it last time lol. Oh well there’s always the possibility it could appear on Best Buy shelves.
Sega this is what I’d like to see in the collection: Sonic 1 Sonic 2 Sonic 3/Knuckles Sonic Spinball Sonic 3D Blast Sonic CD Knuckles Chaotix Sonic Adventure Sonic Adventure 2 Game Gear Sonics Sonic Drift 1&2 Sonic Advance 1,2,3 Sonic Rush 1&2 Sonic the Hedgehog 4 part I Sonic the Hedgehog 4 part 2 Sonic Colors Sonic and the Black Knight Sonic Heroes Sonic Generations And many more that I can’t think of right now! So gather em all up In a convenient package for $50 which I would gladly fork over!
Still trying wrap my head around Sega halting the Sega Ages line!!! Oh God the potential that was there!!! Crazy Taxi begs for a new release still a very fun game for any gamer. Us retro gamers really have to give some respect to Hamster and the parade of classics they’ve put out! Ok some of them are obscure and yea some suck but they’ve still released a ton of quality arcade games! Cmon Sega let’s go!!!
Awesome!! Had a great time with this game and the sequel on Xbox but I’m gonna hold off however as the price is just too steep for a digital game and it’s not even a remaster. $15 would be more of a fair price IMO.
I learned my lesson there but don’t have too many loose carts! One thing I did do was cut the hang tabs off the Genesis boxes just to fit them better there were really a pain in the ass but I’m sure just with no hang tabs I probably devalued them a little. But kudos to Sega for those lovely plastic game cases for the master system and Genesis games!! They last much much longer than cardboard
They’d rather focus on getting their legacy content on switch?? What at the rate of 4-5 games every 3 months?? I’d buy that answer if the Switch online was flooded with them but it’s not! And STILL 4 years in we’re limited to only Nes and Snes games!! Cmon people that’s terrible! The Wii had N64 games for Pete’s sake 😡
Good thing I have 4 of each classic consoles and 3 modded and loaded with 7000+ classic games from a variety of classic systems ☺️
@DaDebbil someone had mentioned that it may be my internet connection but it can’t be. Yea it’s a terrible experience. If they categorized the games on sale by genre at least that would help a little and you can zero in more on what interests you. Yea Same here 1/2 the trailers you can’t even watch!! 🙄
I assume there are many like myself totally frustrated trying to navigate the Switch eshop! It’s sooo annoying to attempt to scroll through more than a thousand games on sale each week and then out of the blue the page refreshes and brings you back to the top leaving you no choice but to start all over again- If you even want to bother at that point!! They have to do SOMETHING! Jeez! The Wii U eshop is even better!! I’d be happy with that at the least! 🤪
That’s why on this subject, and adding in Sony’s recent decisions i have to say over and over and over again, physical is KING! Ya gotta get in your damn car drive to the store and hunt down the game you want. Hell even if your so adamant about NOT going to the store and ordering a game online instead, AT LEAST physical gaming is still being supported!!! We never truly owned our wii Virtual console games, wiiware digital purchases and now we will all see our PS3, PSP and Vita digital purchases slowly head into oblivion!!
@Papichulo that’s a big part of the answer right there! I have 3 modded Wii’s, 3 modded Snes and Nes mini consoles all with 7000+ games , 1 original modded Xbox with 50k retro games on it and recently a modded Genesis mini!! I’m not missing out just because this industry can’t get its ***** together! Now that said, my physical purchases going back to the 2600 days exceeds 8000 games so I’ve spent untold money over 40 years on this hobby and along the way, EVERY SINGLE time a company re-releases an older game or an arcade compilation on whatever current gen console at that time, I’m there ready with my wallet to support that decision!! But the fact remains is sooo many games will never ever be legitimately released again because of these variations of rights and ownership issues. For this reason the method of emulation is our savior if you wanna play say Turtles in Time among countless others!! 😊
@Wexter lol as a kid I absolutely loved my 5200! I also loved the Colecovision but overall I grew up a huge Atari fan! The article unfortunately tipped the scales in favor of the colecovision system due to better arcade quality ports such as Mr. Do, Donkey Kong, Mouse Trap and Lady Bug. Now I didn’t agree with the article lol cause the 5200 had its own share of excellent arcade ports such as Centipede, Missle Command, Pole Position, Ms Pac man, Dig Dug and Others. Problem was the article accused Atari of rehashing titles already available on the 2600 and Atari 400/800 computers with no fresh titles for the 52. So Colecovision got the nod. And btw both systems controllers were horrible lol. But my brothers and I had a blast with both systems!! ☺️
I have a full pallet of video game magazines in storage going back to the early 80s & all the way to when they just about died one by one! Once and a while I search an issue by memory on eBay and shocked to see what some are being sold for!! My wife tells me to sell them but nope not yet lol. One of my favorites is the issue of Electronic Games Magazine which did a big article of “The Atari 5200 Vs Colecovision” comparing features and game cart libraries etc, among countless others! Ahhh the memories!! ☺️
still upset about the Sega ages line ending so My list is long! Outrun 2 Virtua Cop 1/2 Crazy Taxi Virtua Fighter series Power Drift Daytona USA Sega Rally Championship Scud Racer House of the Dead series Jet Set Radio Zaxxon Virtua Tennis Nights into Dreams Sonic Adventure series Carnival And a ton of others!!
Awesome news!! Trailer looks great. Let’s hope for a physical release and whichever way Natsume rolls with it, they should strongly consider tossing in the 2 classic Snes titles!! 😁
Always hesitant to buy games digitally on a Nintendo console cause it’s usually doubtful that your purchases will come forward to the next console. Wii and Wii U and with Sony, PS3 are good examples of this. So for me, any digital purchase that’s over $15- $20 requires my careful considerations! So If there is a “Switch 2” in our future, I hope it will be BC!! Would be nice! We already know ps5 won’t be running your PS3 digital purchases so I can’t help but consider them almost history! All that being said I still find Luigi’s Mansion 3 quite tempting lol 😂
@Wavey84 not sure about Darius-G except for ordering through SL like I did. But I’m pretty sure ININ the publisher of some Taito games like Bubble Bobble, Ninja Warriors & Space Invaders could possibly be putting out Cotton Reboot, which I also ordered through SL. I thought I read that on this site. Btw you’re calling it “Cotton Returns” but it’s Cotton Reboot UNLESS we’re not talking about the same game?? 🤷♂️
I’m surprised these games aren’t yet available in the North American eshop but I did order the The Darius Cozmic Revelation games from SL. So at their pace I should receive my games oh sometime in 2022 lol 😂🙄
Nice pair of additions! I wish Hamster would clarify what the deal is with Raiden! One of my faves! Played the hell out of it on my Genesis!! Also i Would love to see Crime City hit from Taito!! And we’re still waiting on Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands!! 2 definitive classics for sure!!
A direct rip off of Jet Set and Another missed opportunity by Sega! So that’s Jet Set and Crazy Taxi clones all in the same week Sega. But you just keep your classic franchises dormant 🤦♂️ 🙄
It’s a nice collection but they did leave quite a few classics out. Why stop at 3 packs?? A Pack 4 and pack 5 would cure that though but my gut feeling is there stopping with 3 packs....let’s hope not.
@kingbk well said!! I’ve been saying this since Sega announced the Ages line was over!! I just don’t get the logic at all! Who’s running the show there?!? Countless Sega classics were left behind. My Ages wishlist was real long! I had some hope after Virtua Racing hit but nope! What a Disappointment!!
