Living in Idaho these last 5 years I can say with 100% certainty that Idaho has different laws of physics.

@Liam_Doolan well my face is red haha. Thanks for pointing it out.

I'm extremely confident I'll be picking up this game. I just checked and it doesn't look like it's getting a physical release. Anyone think it'll be getting one?

I mean the og PSP brought competition and that can breed innovation, but I don't know, Nintendo has always really had a good grip on the handheld market.

I feel like I hear news about Xbox it sounds like they are hanging on by a thread. So maybe it's be their dreamcast?

@HalBailman ah dang, you heard of DekuDeals? It's what I use to keep track of deals. It even tells you what the lowest price ever was. It shoots you an email when it goes on sale too.

I hope you can get em soon, really can't recommend those titles enough.

Man should have put money on it.

@HalBailman I know this is an older comment but mania is my most played switch game and messenger is in the top 5.

I hope you were able to take advantage of the Black Friday sales. Even without it those games are so good. Easy 10/10s in my book.

@ToonStuff so I recently got back into megaman, playing X 1-3 and the Wily Wars. Super great, I tried the demo for 11 and I don't know maybe I'm just old, it felt weird. You feel like 11 can hold it's own with the others?

@MSaturn I agree mixed feelings about the overall experience. Ending was fenomenal. But not a huge fan of crafting and Im fairly confident I don't feel a ton of want to explore since for the most part it's a recycled world. Not a bad game, or even just a good game by any means, just not sure I enjoyed it overall more than BOTW.

Sweet! Been hoping for some new Genesis games! It's been so long

So I need to hold my reaction til I finish reading the title haha, scared me for a second!

No I'm good, I feel like it was a fun one shot.

If they have another crazy idea for a sequel or maybe both are playable sure, but so far I vastly prefer playable Link over an Echoes of Wisdom Zelda.

@LastFootnote dude amen! I love playing my super Gameboy.

That Sonic Adventure burn was good haha.

I keep wanting them to release a new joy con grip that has a touch screen on it so they can have DS and 3DS on NSO. Kinda like the other N64 controller or something of the like. I just think to cut costs if they make it a grip people would only be buying the screen?

I don't know if it'll ever happen but as a 3DS fan, I'd totally buy that.

@SleeplessKnight I feel like it would have made more sense too since Shadows first appearance was on the dreamcast.

But I do agree I love the Genesis and the Genesis games and don't own a dreamcast. I also think that it looks sick in the pixel art, and I'm the Genesis soundfont.

I got 12. My older bro got the DS at launch. I joined the party with the lite. Good times.

@PikminMarioKirby i have DKLand 2 and it's insane how good the game play is. I think you're in for a treat if it's new to you. It isn't as good as a DKC but it's so impressive how smooth, clean and fun it is.

Tetris DS in underrated.One of my memories of the DS was with it.

I don't remember the details of it but I got to a point where I was so great at it I wasn't dying. This went on for at least a week, when I would just close it and put it on the charger at night. Eventually I wanted to play another game so I had to do the painful thing on ending it myself. I'm glad I did but it was nuts!

@1UP-HUSKY My guess is a "Sequel" to OoT based on some stuff Aonuma said. I doubt they would re-remake it, but they could! I just see them doing a A link to the past/A link between worlds kinda thing, which I would happily spend my money on.

I've also been hoping to hear a review for this game. The only con on that list is when games get too chatty, other than that it sounds great. I can't afford anything at the moment but its on my list now.

Plus the developer was in the comments of a previous article and seemed super awesome, and I like supporting awesome people.

If there were ever a swinging deal on this list it's the Messenger, don't look it up if you can help it, it's so good blind.

I graduate from university next month and we are going to go see the movie to celebrate! It ain't much but it's what we can afford. Super excited

@Dee123 huh? Never heard them say that, when?

I think I just don't like FPS games now. I feel claustrophobic and lost. I used to like Halo and the like but I guess I outgrew it. I got Prime remaster and probably put 2 hours into it before just dropping it, it's beautiful, I love the atmosphere but I felt bored, and not able to really enjoy myself.

Ah man, at least put out the icons in the West.

I haven't played any crazy top down Zeldaesk indie games, not because they don't exist but everytime I see one highlighted they are usually really dark? Like theres like a glow around the character constantly?

Kinda like enter the gungeon, I guess I wish these environments were better lit? I know its for mood and world building and maybe its my eyes just getting old and not liking to strain to just see whats going on.

Any other good Zeldaesk indie games people would recommend? Possibly without the darkness?

I think a Zelda remake would be bomb, but I agree with @Bunkerneath I admire the work and the craft but I'm not in love with the direction.

I love Zero Mission, not because of the little added end mission, but because it makes the original more accessable. I'm sure one day they'll do a Zelda 1 remake in a similar vane, maybe for the 40th anniversary?

@Notsoavid I'm told by the youths that "no cap" means "I'm not lying" so you aren't using it improperly.

Ok Jim fair, but neither are great, it's like a lumpy potatoes compared to a potato.

@Superick $400 is so much more doable than $500, so im hopeful. I'm honestly still holding out hope for $350 and they drop the price of all switch models just by $50.

A guy can dream.

I feel optimistic that this might mean we get some new Genesis on NSO, I haven't seen that needle move in like a year or more.

@NinChocolate I just played through Warioland 4 for the first time since my childhood and I forgot just how good the series is, hopefully one day it'll have a comeback.

Man I hope MP4 is something I'd like. I love the sidescroller metroids but the 3D I've never really enjoyed, I liked watching my brother play them grow up, but thats about it. Also I really really hope the new pokemon is good, I miss looking forward to their releases, they have just been hard to believe in.

Otherwise I might pick up DK, I never got returns before, I almost did on 3DS. I'll wait for the review to see which system it'd be better to get it on.

@AJWolfTill you make a good point, logical fallacy, hasty generalization. I just was way surprised, sounds like everyone was, so I should have assumed it's not the norm with them.

I've never noticed before, is IGN always this harsh?

In high school I wanted to revisit the game and picked up a cart and about 5 years ago I learned it was a fake. I got a legit copy sometime within the last year and stopped in the graveyard section of the game. Just kinda lost interest.

I have a hard time ranking it high on my lists because of all of the silly fetch quests, which is also part of the reason why I stopped in the graveyard. You go to Dampe to get a key, you get the key, a bird steals the key, Dampe tells you to go get the key, you retrieve the key within seconds from the bird and then turn around to give the key back to Dampe so he can open the gate.

Why did he give it to you then?? What was the point of all that?

It's stuff like that just feels like padding that really rubs me poorly in the game. I loved it as a lad, but find it difficult to revisit, even though I do love the overall narrative (no spoilers here), art style, core mechanics and dungeon themes. It just feels like they had enough ideas for a 8 hour game and really wanted it to land in the 20 hours instead.

Not a bad Zelda by any means, just wouldn't recommend it before other giants like A Link Between Worlds.

I knew it'd be Jim.

Not to get too churchie on a video game website, but it reminds me of the parable of the laborers in the vineyard where people who worked all day were paid the same as those who only worked an hour and those that worked all day were upset about it.

I didn't get it right away because I didn't see the value in it. I think in both situations early adopters and people that worked at the beginning of the day are reasonably upset, but that's what those early birds signed up for.

I'm grateful as a late adopter of the NSO+Expansion pack I don't have to pay more than those who paid day 1. For me it's been worth it, library was great when I came in and I still pay the same as those first people when the library wasn't as flushed out. I'm also grateful that there's no penalty for being a late adopter.

Ive only touched the sonic half so far but am so pleased. I'm getting more and more sensitive to frame drops and pop in and it's been rock solid for me. Easily the best 3D Sonic game I've ever played. 2D, mania is still king but it isn't half bad either.

Definitely feels like a Nintendo direct fell through

There was a typo in another paragraph that said "sense sense."

Other than that I got no clue, probably not. I hope not at least, I'm so content with the switch i don't ever want the thing to die.

Alex made it pretty clear this puppy isn't comfy, so I'll pass, looks cool though.

@Serpenterror I think thats a neat concept! I have the 3DS version and I don't think it really is anything to write home about. I'll have to play it again to see, but would be neat!

It should show up for me tomorrow, I'll give it a vote in a week or so after I've gotten some time into it.

@-wc- Dude FREAKING YES. Going through the eshop is the worst.

Holy cow! That's a ton of NSO this month! We had the 2 GBA games earlier this month and 3 N64, I could get used to this kinda release schedule!

Freaking yes! Thanks for the assurance k I'll be getting this on switch then!

@BionicDodo gotcha lame. Sorry for distracting from the review at hand haha

@-wc- haha fair, I just have no idea where to ask and I've been checking every day
