I've played and loved every Trials game since the original Java-based ones way back when. To finally have one on a Nintendo console is a dream come true. Preordered!

Preordered since it was announced and available. Can't wait to play it. I wonder if the Fox and Falco Amiibo do anything in the game.

I don't even know what a MOBA is, no matter how many times I heard the term, plus outside of Zelda games, not a fan of the fantasy genre. But boy is it cool to keep hearing more and more games coming to Switch. Keep em coming!

I wasn't even aware this game existed, but looking at some videos looks really fun. It's now on my radar.

Honestly I was expecting something more in depth. This was kind of like a quick glance over certain aspects, alongside a few samples of SNES music. Good effort, but IMO the title can be misleading.

And just like that, a game I had no previous interest in is now in my radar. If it plays anything like Splatoon 2 I'll be sure to try it.

@Nintendo_Thumb The thing is, a lot of the levels specially these days tend to rely on "hacks", for instance there was one puzzle level that required one to pass through two vertically stacked music blocks, which you can do under certain circumstances; once I realized that I gave up. The bookmark site makes it somewhat easier to filter, but it's still finding needles in a smaller haystack.

> Have you played F-Zero GX on the GameCube?

I still do, it's one of the best racing games I've ever played, Sega very well did impress me. It's why it's such a sin this game hasn't been remastered yet.

@thesilverbrick The sad thing is, there are actually quite a few awesome levels in Super Mario maker, but they are hidden among probably millions of "questionable" ones. One-screen puzzle levels for instance are a type of level I never knew I wanted so badly.

I'm just surprised the SNES sold "only" 49 million. At the time it felt like everyone had one.

I hope it's not true, only so that those annoying people who harassed Sakurai don't suddenly feel that their "methods" are rewarded.

That said, with Sakurai being such a man of detail.... I don't know, this could mean something

@retro_player_22 Shots fired!

I'm a big fan of fighting games, but the amount of "fan service" in this game is ridiculous, this is the type of game I'd be embarrassed to be seen playing by my wife and kids, no matter how good the gameplay is.

IMO they could have sold way more units with a lower price, at least digitally; $40 is too much for me for the type of game. At $20 for example, I would have impulse-bought just because of the cool logo.

Who actually buys those Nyko Intercoolers? They're released for every console, and they're all useless. Does anyone have a genuine reason for them?

@westman98 I know, my point is, in general what would you be more likely to fund, a massive game with lots of characters, story, art, etc, versus a "simpler", smaller sports game, if both get you around the same number of sales.

I think this line of reasoning is why we haven't gotten more Metroid games for instance, and a whole bunch of Mario party games.

@Stocksy I think you are overestimating the market for quirky rhythm games that most people don't know about in the west, specially after having been oversaturated with plastic instruments in the past.

Digital and no controller makes total sense for a company testing the waters. Maybe if this does well in the west they'll do a physical release with a controller.

I'm sure this decision will get criticized, but given the game genre, this makes total sense. Day one for me if priced right.

Looks good, but I think this is a case where "less is more" makes a difference, comparing this to something like Playdead's Inside.

I'm surprised Mario Tennis has almost caught up with Xenoblade, having recently launched. I guess this is the sort of stats that tip the scales when deciding what type of game to work on next.

They'd make even more money if they released, I don't know, Capcom vs SNK, Viewtiful Joe, Pocket Fighter, Darkstalkers, basically any of their gems they seem to be sitting on for no real reason.

I got two DK bongos and interest in this game, I guess this is what will push me to buy a GCN adapter.

Nintendo needs to stop updating this game. I have an ever-growing game backlog that needs some attention!

It's perfect for me, I just need a D-pad for portable Street Fighter and megaman play, none of which really requires any of the missing features.

I do wish they sold a plain black one though, not sure if they will in the west.

Well, time to put our money where our mouth was, for all of us requesting this to make it to the west.

@N00BiSH If it is, this might be the reason for me to finally double dip and get MK8 on Switch, cause I'm definitely getting this new Labo kit.

Well deserved. I already had the digital version, got the physical mostly just for the art book (and via Prime savings), and purchased the DLC anyway to avoid having to put the cartridge in

@Jasspur I think you are exaggerating a little. It's just that some of these game-as-a-service multiplayer games have to be free to play to succeed, but not at all does it mean it's a trend that will take over all games.

@Garretts_Studio Ok, thanks for the unnecessarily condescending response!

Looks good enough for me, some design choices are not what I would have made, but they fit in with how most children cartoons are made today.

Sadly, most mega man "fans" are a bunch of negative Nancies who can't make up their mind on what they think they want, so here's hoping this brings in new, real fans, and in doing so, revitalize the franchise.

I just wonder how a site like emuparadise has stayed up so long. I've never heard of these two.

@diwdiws Personally, I avoided the mobile version because it's too big a download for my available space, plus being a Telltale game I'm not so sure it would run as well on my old devices. I chose to wait for the Switch version.

I loved the first one and can't wait to continue the story. I do hope they addressed some of the more annoying glitches, like some episodes starting as if you had chosen a complete set of choices.

@SmaggTheSmug I hope it never throws yellow ink...

I'll see myself out

@Matthew010 IMO this is by far the best 2D Sonic game, and the least frustrating one too. You'll miss out on some of the fan service, but on the other hand, every level is going to be new for you, so overall I'd say you may even like it more than long time fans. I recommend it.

I was on the fence about double dipping on this one, because I really wanted the art book and genesis cover, but didn't want to have to insert a cartridge every time just to get access to the plus content. If this unlocks the plus content in the digital version, then I'm pre-ordering now!

> we are very close to announce something amazing about it

I'm going to go ahead and assume this confirms Redout Switch will feature the 4 classic F-Zero ships

> Perhaps he’s referring to a system update that’ll add an internet browser and themes

But, but what would people complain about if they do that? Think of the internet!

These are actually kinda cool, way more significant than the original Splatoon amiibo. Not that I'm complaining, I collect my Amiibo for the figurines, anything else is extra.

For the people complaining about the price, please be aware that this game has the same MSRP on all platforms except iOS, it just may have a discount on some of them.

@hiptanaka 100% agree. Portal games not being available on every single platform possible is a disservice to humanity.

@Nunya I thought the opposite, Limbo required more trial and error, mostly due to some tricky platforming sections, whereas Inside is almost too easy except for a maybe one or two puzzles.

I absolutely loved this game, and probably spent more time in it than several full retail games. Well worth the money. But the mobile market is a sad endeavor.

IMO games like this are better digital and quickly playable, but good news for those that prefer physical.

I never realized how much this looks like Donkey Konga, one of my favorite games ever. This needs some form of western port.

@Anti-Matter And I respect that. If it were my choice, I wish physical releases remained an option forever. But the reality is that the digital option has many advantages, and little by little consumers and publishers are catching up to it. Only those of us who grew in a physical only environment are clinging to it, and we won't be around forever.

IMO the main and only real problem with digital is that it's still too expensive. If every game released at half or even 2/3 of the physical price, there'd be way more digital sales. Every other issue most people complain about digital media is superfluous at best.

As much as I like collecting physical media, 100% digital is the future, and IMO anyone who doesn't think so is biased by their own preferences or just shortsighted. Specially when that physical thing you buy stops being the full thing you play shortly after its release, and that's not going to change. I think Microsoft has done digital wonderfully so far, if everyone else follows their approach that future might come sooner.

I hope this game finally sells as well as it should. It's such a gorgeous game, but the touch screen controls on mobile didn't do it justice.

Looks way better than all the X games after (and including) MMX 4, where X was too big and complicated design wise IMO.

The books are super cheap on amazon. I got the first two, with the 3rd one on its way. Well worth it for Splatoon fans.
