Yes, because analyst get it right so often.

Give me Warhammer Space Marines 1 & 2, and just more WH40K in general.

Other than that, more FromSoft, Dark Souls trilogy, Elden Ring, Armored Core. And more quality remasters and remakes of Nintendo games, like F-Zero, 1080, Star Fox, WarioLand and Golden Sun.

For those who couldn’t be bothered with the video.

tl;dw

1. FE Engage
2. Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
3. Sea of Stars
4. WarioWare: Move It!
5. TLoZ: TotK

Even if that claim made any sense, yeah no, not how it works with me. I’ll be the judge in whether it has turned around for the better or not, according to my preference.

For me, it was bittersweet. While there were many great movies, shows and games. But over the last few years, having to sit back and watch a lot of things I loved, turn to utter rubbish.

The likes of Star Wars, Star Trek, LotR, Dr Who, Marvel, DC, Transformers all being total garbage now, FreeRadical shutdown and TimeSplitters cancelled, and terrible “official” English translations just to name a few.

The few things that I feel I have left that I continue to enjoy are Nintendo, Warhammer and various anime. Hopefully there won’t be any more casualties in 2024, and most, if not all of the things I used to like, start to turn around and go back to what made them so great in the first place.
And if there are to be casualties in 2024, hopefully it’ll just be AI replacing those terrible localisers.

And that’s all I got to say about that.

I’ve played, but not beaten the original DS game, so story/puzzle wise I know most of what I’m in for. The character design is great, English voice acting was a little dull but not terrible, the Japanese voice acting was better. The environment design is poor (GameCube era/modern Pokémon design quality) but not overly distracting, camera controls were a major standout, in how jarring they were (like let me zoom out further and don’t “bump” into the environment/boundaries).

There’s some room for improvement and demo has knocked my interest a bit, but if feedback is received they could easily fix the problems before release.

@OwenOtter @BenoitRen

Yup, it’s exactly what I thought this would be even before I clicked on the article.

With the state and performance they released MK1 on the Switch, why would they?

I’m not against it from happening, not sure why other people, outside of Nintendo, are so strongly against it. But Samus, Captain Falcon and maybe Star Fox are the best suited, plus it would be nice to see those characters getting a bit more exposure to the masses.

My favourite announcement of the show. But if any of the trailers revealed throughout the show, showed us anything, it showed that Nintendo really do need to up their game, hardware wise.

While I do like a short acceptance speech, they were rude to some of the winners. Especially when compared to their guest game award announcers/advertisers. Judge, Kojima and Mackie being standouts.

The SEGA games announcement was the only thing that really stood out to me.

But seeing most the reveals was starting to make things painfully obvious that Nintendo really need to push their hardware power next gen or risk really being left behind, when it comes to 3rd party support.

I did find Spider-Man 2 not winning any awards mildly amusing though.

So is Keighley finally going to come out and commit to his relationship with Kojima?

One things for sure, it ain’t happening from modern day Rare.

Maybe the success of the remake might just green light that Mario RPG sequel?

Other than Crunchyroll and hopefully HiDive, I don’t care for any other streaming service on the Switch or its successor.

I’m still hopeful that shows like Bleach:TYW and Undead Unluck make their way to proper anime streaming platform, I ain’t giving Disney a dime. Till then, I’ll find other means to watch those shows, uncensored too.

Mario is Missing

All depends on which Zelda they plan on adapting.

I know most people didn’t like the depths so much, but save some of the traversal of the area, I loved it. The wandering into the “unknown” was so exciting and fun to me.

Bit of a stupid question. If the “Switch 2” is BC, my Switch will be traded in for said “Switch 2”. There is little to no reason to hang on to it.

Still got my GC copies of TP2 & 3.

The first thing they should really do is fix the Vol. 1 collection and update the Switch version to run MGS2 & 3 at 60fps like it should have from the start.

Next is Vol. 2, that includes MGS4, 5 and Peacewalker.

Vol 3. with all the spin offs, Rising Revengeance, Ghosts of Babel, Portable Ops, Acid and Twin Snakes as a bonus.

Other Metroid Hunters, F-Zero machines, or something completely left field, like an Excite-Bike, Tethu/Tethi from Ever Oasis, Mike Jones from StarTopics or Akari Hayami from Wave Race/1080 Snowboarding.

Sure it looks… nice, but I wouldn’t call this “Ghibli”.

At least it looks better than those shiny “Unreal Engine remakes”.

Seeing this game makes me think, "Would I want Golden Sun to be remade like this, or more like Dragon Quest 11?"

SEGA executives: "This is how we surpass Super Mario, a couple of mid live-action movies, a average 3D and 2D game and to top it it off, make an exclusive Apple arcade game. It's fool proof!"

Definitely on my “places to go to” list when I head there next year.

No Yomawari, no The Coma, no In Sound Mind. But oh, “Luigi’s Mansion is horror themed.”

There are so many more actual horror games on the Switch. Are you guys even trying here?

Meh, while still a cool Pokémon, I find Mimikyu to be one of the less “scary” Pokémon.

I thought you guys at NLife would have been all over the “Nintendo announces shocking competition rules” fiasco.

The scores seem a little high for a collection of decades old (and older) games that don’t all run 60 fps on all modern hardware, when they did two console generations ago. And had announced post launch fixes, before release.

Plus the physical release is a joke.

Shame that these days, Disney as a whole is so garbo now. Ruining what made them so great and what came before, in near every form of media.

I still can’t believe NLife never reviewed Little Witch Nobeta, Chronos: Before the Ashes, or Remnant: From the Ashes. All really good games.

And now we'll see if MS are still around in the console market in 4 years time.

No matter how much SEGA try, Sonic the Hedgehog just isn't a must have title, has been for a long time.

I don't get it. Some sort of British "mind in the gutter" term? The only thing that comes to my mind is the animal.

It would depend on price, memory size and whether or not the successor console has a card slot for backwards compatibility.

What heresy is this? I still see a severe lack of WH40k Mechanicus on this list.

Availability and more villagers/specific villagers. Other than that, just a simple AC village, e.g. homes, stores and buildings. Planes, boats and trains would also be good.

@JankFlowers
While I agree with your explanation on why the “Switch 2” should have BC, but no way was Nintendo about to go out of business because of the Wii U.

The only thing I was disappointed in was that they didn’t use Kotake and Koume (aka Twinrova) in any form, considering they’re in the game, in cut scenes. I thought for sure she’d be used as fake Zelda, would have been a cool surprise.

I just hope it’s more fully voiced like WarioWare Gold was.

@Znake
Nah, I know I meant. Units sold is different to active users.
That was my meaning.

Well duh, it would be silly of any console dev to immediately drop support for their last gen console. Not until their next one hits its stride with the masses.

What if they have another supply issue or some other issue? Gotta have something to fall back on, and having over near 100 million active units is a good foundation to fall back on.

@Lanmanna @Poodlestargenerica

Yeah, they were quite quick to lock the comments. Already locked when I happened to stumble upon it.

This article is almost in as poor of taste as NLife's "LatinX" article, almost.

In your opinion, it might not necessarily "need" it, but I'd rather not have to buy "remastered" Switch games for the successor console. Nor do I really want to hang onto my Switch, when all the Switch games I own could be all conveniently played on a single console.
It also helps when getting a new console, I'll have assets to trade in for a better price.

In foresight, it would be unwise to not make it backwards compatible.

Looks so good.

No thanks. But if we’re talking smartphone games, I prefer Warhammer Tacticus at the moment.

I mean they did initially promise the dlc, while they provided somewhat of an explanation and a “free game” as compensation, I already owned what they were offering, save for if I were to get one of the games again on a different platform.

So I “get it”.

@russell-marlow
The Vita is not on par with the Switch, even in handheld mode. The Switch sits more in-line with the PS3/360/Wii U in power, performance & specs. Hence the complaint.
