@roy130390 Thanks, Roy! You did succeed.
Cheers

@nhSnork "I could be playing the even older Gothic I right now if I didn't direct the allocatable funds towards higher discounted priorities again while Gothic's own discounted price got eaten by what eShop's bank card lunacy had me overpay for retail gift cards last month. While juggled out of console storage for the time being, I've already played Neverwinter Nights on Switch as well. "Retro" isn't a mere fad word to a millennial gamer who barely engaged with anything beyond Gen 6 until the early (for NDS/PSP) or even late 2010s (for the rest).😏"

Like for the others: my apology.
Cheers

@The_Blue_Mage "Besides the obvious rage bait you put in this comment and the blatant age-ism, I don't think the publisher would re release these games if there was no money to be made. Also this is a multi-console release which means it will sell at least enough for them"

Yes, thanks. You got me there. I should not comment in a bad mood. You brought it to the point. I was thinking about deleting my comment but thought it would be disrespectful to all the ones that replied.
It was never supposed to be a rage bait, though. If you look up my historic comments, i am not that kind of guy.

Cheers

@beltmenot "might wanna knock that 100% down to a 99%. I'm a young adult and I'm interested in playing this."

Yes. I will. My statement was too harsh and I apologize.
Cheers

@marck13 "I very much don’t like agreeing with you however.. I am truly one of those who would love to play this and I can not find the time for it 😢"

Sorry. I had a bad day. I like the original first two games. Didn't even know of the third.

Thanks for your reply and I feel you. Please except my apology for my first statement. I edited it but did not touch the original.
Cheers

@roy130390 "I'm not familiar with these games but aren't they single player? How can it be dead on arrival? Besides there's always people that play them. Those percentages seem arbitrary as there's usually lots of people wanting to replay cherished games and younger generations wanting to play what they consider retro games."

Maybe I used the doa term wrong. I meant to say, that it might be bought but not really be played. Put on the pile of shame.
I edited my first post without touching the original one and I think, you have a point there. I did not want to make people angry.
Cheers

@Hero-of-WiiU "Old man energy."

You know what? Yes. You are right. Without being sarcastic. I edited my my first comment.
I had a bad day. I love the games. I played them (not the third one) back in the days.
Thanks for your harsh reply.
Cheers.

Noone will play this. Some old folks will buy it due to nostalgia. But play them all through? 99% of the elder don't have the time and 100% of the younger are not interested. It's doa.

Edit: I'm sorry for the wording. I would delete my comment, but then all the answers would be for nothing.

I really don't believe the game will be played a lot, though.
Cheers

Edit edit: please scroll down to read the other comments before reacting. This was a foul comment of mine and I got struck by the nicest community there is, already. I love NL and the readers.

I really wish, Alex would do a review Video on this one.
If you read this, Alex: enjoy your family! I know how great it is. Still missing you!

That there is only Ghost-Competion w/o connect with friends is the worst part. It's overran by bots. And even if not, it just feels that way.

And don't give me the zoom-in-ability crap. This game is DOA

Text is so ridiculous small on oG switch screen. What are they thinking? Why? So often in so many games.... Is it Laziness or do they just don't give a crap? It stinks, I paid for this. Shame on the developers. Sorry: I'm just sooo frustrated. Please make this always a point in your review / preview / Heads-Up, NL.

I bought it due to this article and it is unplayable. Thanks.

@Dr_Wright "did you own the original? Wondering how good these are, would love to buy the deluxe"

Tbh: not worth it.

The commentator of this video makes me want to kick his bottom. The most annoying trailer of the year.

Well it's Tennis in the end. They all kinda suck. They all are fun in multiplayer.

@shinaramusha Creating an account to comment and vote in polls was a mistake. I forgot how unpleasant the comment sections are on Nintendo Life.

What do you mean?

@shinaramusha true.

To be fair: wearing glasses and got a big nose. But the quest fits. This hurts.

I would like to rate the gimmick regarding face fit. Abysmal.

The actual peripheral in plastic with stand sucks hard imo. Glasses don't fit without scratching the plastic look-through and it's just a collecting item. Why did they not put a non-schratch layer on those tiny windows? We all know: creating waste.
I am the biggest Nintendo fan of all time. But this is trash to me. Very disappointed.

Waiting for your review. It looks interesting. I just wonder if I would play it longer than one evening...

The last outing was meh. So I'll wait for NL's review on this.

The art style of the characters looks cheap and soulless to me. I'll give it a pass.

@Misima so why did you start playing Videogames? Because you were encouraged to?

Thanks for all the fun and interesting stuff, Felix! All the best to you!

And a big hug to Alex. I know how it feels to lose a beloved colleague and two in that short of time must be hard.

A cheerful and healthy 2026 to everyone!

"Fortunately, CDPR is in a festive mood, and if you did manage to purchase either of these games at the discounted prices, you'll be able to keep them."

Yeah..right. they would not be able to , anyway.

Maybe it comes later to Germany? I hope so.
Interested for any input. Thx

@Moroboshi876 as far as I understand, they want to make you pay another 60 Euros regardless if you have a previous version. In Germany, at least. Assssssss..... (to use AVGN formulation)

@Moroboshi876 Is this a scam? I Just did that and ended up with the switch 1 anniversary edition. The switch 2 version would set me back 60 €. Plus: i had the dlc already. I just wasted 10 bucks for nothing

@Liam Dolan: can you bring light to that matter, pls?

For me, several issues got fixed today. But the other several issues still give me a headache...

I'll fix them after Christmas. Have a nice and calm one, everyone!

@AG_Awesome it's a feature.

@Oppyz666 yes. So it's this automated AI YouTube crab. It should be forbidden, to activate it by default.

I once heard the AVGN introduction song in German. Sung by AI. Still gives me the shivers....

Why are there German sound effects in Skywire? Sounds super weird...

@Jason_Feiner once the peeps get out of bed and go to work it will happen, I'm sure. They're based in England, you know?

@Jason_Feiner best credits-roll music of all times.... Love it

Looks cool. What I'm waiting for is the Flip Grip for S2 as well...

When will that be realized?

@Troubbble Balatro is a mobile game.

If something is good, it's good.

Woooohooooo! Going to ask Santa for it!

Edit: Playtime sounds a tad short, though. I don't remember, but Prime 1 and 2 took longer for me to finish, I think.

Looks neat. But is there a way to use it tate? That would be awesome.

Is Uncle Franklin on holiday?

Finally ordered one.. thanks!

@MrGawain nice one! 😂

@Pillowpants "New Zealand, not surprising! I'm really looking forward to this movie, but I'm still surprised they went for live action, instead of animated. I prefer the latter, but I guess I'm just highly sceptical on everything that tries to go from animated to live action."

It could work.... If Dennis Hopper would still be with us, it would be a guaranteed success.

Very nice art and interesting article! Thanks!

@Uncle_Franklin once it's done, you'll get the first copy signed by hand. Seriously: I'm looking out for your counting on every BAB article since years. Thank you for that!

Greetings from Germany

@Uncle_Franklin Please keep up the good work! You're a legend in my book!

@Duck_Farmer understandable. But as a little tip: take your five to ten hours in the beginning to find the magic yourself. I recommend to read the manual of the old titles.

Enjoy!

@Duck_Farmer interesting way to play The Legend of Zelda. Didn't even know it is possible. Are you using a guide? Happy gaming!

13. I stink. I was fun, though!

@WhiteUmbrella the parents should not be given out. The system is flawed. Not Nintendo. They have to play the game like all the others.
