The only two Mario RPGs I've never played are Super Mario RPG and Paper Mario 2. Therefore it's great for me that those two games are being remade for Switch
I need to play them more to give a definitive answer but currently I'd say Bowsers Castle 3 simply because it is such a highspeed track at 200cc with great flow. And the music is great
Also I'm not someone who cares about graphics that much but just compare Bowsers Castle 3 to Mario Circuit 3 in Wave 2, both are SNES tracks but the difference is like night and day
@Darktower77 Old games aside there has been Fire Emblem Engage, Tears of the Kingdom, Pikmin 4, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Detective Pikachu Returns, Wario Ware Move it and maybe something else I'm forgetting. That's at least 6 games.
Now compare that to Sony who only released Spider-Man 2 or Microsoft that released Starfield and Forza Motorsport
@Sisilly_G Well my birth year is part of my user name (well 1996, not 96 ofc)
But that being said, didn't Duke Nukem Forever actually get multiple release dates/windows? It just didn't release then and got delayed multiple times. Which means it wouldn't have been listed as TBA
Metroid Prime 4 so far hasn't even gotten a release window
@KBuckley27 According to Nate the Hate Nintendo will reveal the Switch Pro before E3 2021 because he knows there will be games at E3 that run on the Switch Pro
@Princess_Lilly
BS. Traveling in Spider-Man 2 is actually fun, the protagonist are likeable and the story is interesting unlike those games you mentioned
Luckily (or rather sadly) I don't have to worry about this cause on my most-wanted list is an actual remake of Pokemon DP (and not the **** we ended up with) and we most likely will never get that, or at least not in a very long time
It still confuses me that this game won't release until summer which means it got announced about 1 year before release despite "only" being a 3DS remaster
Makes me wonder if they are taking their time to further improve the graphics, I mean LM3 also looked much better when it released compared to the announcement trailer
@Diowine Is it really a wasted slot though when they actually added more characters than promised? I mean we got 4 instead of 2 new characters after all
Also I'm sure if they only gave us three new characters, Diddy, Funky and Pauline no one would have complained that there isn't an additional forth character
Reminds me of when Bowsers Inside Story on 3DS ran at 30fps while the original ran at 60fps. I never noticed while playing that game dispite having played both versions
Tbh can't really tell a difference between PS4 and PS5 games beside resolution and framerate so it's not unlikely that the Switch2 will get close to PS5 via DLSS, at least in the eyes of the average consumer
@pjzx Yeah but even older ones than RDR. Or would you say that rereleasing for example Super Mario Bros 1, 2, 3 and World for 60$ would be more justified because they are four games?

Re: Valve Announces Steam Deck OLED, Says Switch OLED Paved The Way
The original Steam Deck already is an amazing device and now it has a way better screen, bigger battery and other improvements
If you don't have a SD already and are even a tiny bit interested in it it should be a no brainer to get one

@chipia For comparison, Sonic Mania got 32/40. In that light it does seem very promising...

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's DLC Physical Release In Japan Includes A Game Card
I think it's pretty dumb to re-release the game with the DLC included on a cartridge if they don't actually include the entire DLC on it
But I guess they wanted to have a "new" Mario Kart on the shelves for christmas
