Still surprised that they didn’t create a red Switch Lite console for this bundle.

The European and the American boxart is mixed up in this article.

As someone who bought a Wii U the week Smash Bros Wii U came out, I can remember a fun few months of playing of playing games like Mario Kart 8 and Super Mario 3D World but the games drought was real and seeing first party games being released months apart showed how bad the third party developers have abandoned it.

@boxyguy I think it’s to cover the people who use the N64 Bluetooth controllers that Nintendo sells.

Starfox was actually so close to being the Wes Anderson type animation short before Nintendo pulled the plug.

LRG says it can ship to the UK but anyone have any experience if there's still a hidden import tax to pay when it arrived?

I'm still waiting to see if Nintendo will leave system transfering alone since that requires a server check before transfering your game data to a new console.

Kinda surprised that they're starting from the third one instead of adding improvements and remastering the first one in the series unless there's something about RF3 that makes it the highlight of the series.

I hope they announce something for the NSO since it’s around this time that a lot of people will decide to renew or not. GBA or Gamecube please?

Here’s hoping Guardian Heroes will be next. Maybe even a Sin and Punishment 3 one day.

The NSO launched on September 2018 so I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo announces more stuff for that service just to get people to renew their subscription.

The only two Japanese only Square RPG I can think of that could potentially get the western release treatment like Live a Live is Bahamut Lagoon and Treasure Hunter G so hopefully we're still getting more of this type of game for a little longer.

@EarthboundBenjy looks like it’s just a SNES Mini. Guess he likes the US library of games more than the Super Famicom Mini.

@bubicus you reminded me that every farming sim has you start with a watering can and the ultimate watering tool is… a sprinkler.

Surely there must be a farm sim game where you can build a watering system with pipes and a water pump to water a crop as the last upgradable tool.

Aren't consoles generally loss leaders so that most of the profits are made from selling marked up games?

So can anyone explain the name change for those that can’t read Japanese?

I wouldn't be surprised if the DS version is the only way to play the game and it won't be re-released or remade due to the cost of licensing the music again.

Will it carry over the games list from the first Mini Mega Drive or have an entirely new game list which means swapping the mini consoles depending on what you want to play?

Hopefully Snatcher will be one of the games on the list.

Unless they’re going for the Sonic Mania pixel art graphics, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s just more of the 2D sections from Sonic Generations.

> We got a little peak

Whoa calm down.

Did Miyamoto forget about Tetris being a pack in game for the Gameboy?

With this and the rise in people adding IPS backlit screens to their original GBAs, the motherboard will become more sought after. I wish there was a way to convert Gameboy Players to be a standalone GBA player without the Gamecube and boot disc.

@russell-marlow Nah, just a different voice actress.

I’m still hopeful that Grezzo will be working on a new Zelda remake (Oracle series maybe?) using the Switch Link’s Awakening engine.

@Dr_Lugae if Konami's eFootball botched release this year is anything to go by, I don't think EA has anything to worry about.

Who's going to swoop in and pay up for the FIFA name if EA is still holding onto the teams and players? Are we going to have a FIFA game where they use team names like Menchaster United?

Rune Factory 5 not even getting a look in the top 10.

Darn, I just got COCONUT MALL'D.

Is this... a Jojo reference?

I think it’s a massive shame that a collection of remastered VB games never made it to the 3DS. This game could’ve been a neat addition.

As well as digital games, the "Wii Shop Discontinuation" FAQ page also points out that system transferring will also not be possible in the future.

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/27560/~/wii-shop-channel-discontinuation

"In the future we will close all services related to the Wii Shop Channel, including the ability to redownload WiiWare and Virtual Console games, as well as the Wii System Transfer Tool, which transfers data from Wii to the Wii U system. We will announce specific details as that time approaches."

Considering the 3DS is also tied to using Nintendo's servers when doing a system transfer, it's going to suck if you want to transfer from a used 3DS to a newer one in the future.

I remember playing this more than the actual PSP Ridge Racer game.

Jump man. Jump man. AaaAAAAaah. Fighter of the Star man.

Wonder if BotW re-entered the top 10 because of some special offer that I missed or people who received a Switch for Christmas buying their second or third game.

Are we getting an Aardman Cinematic Universe where Wallace and Gromit asks Morph if he wants to join him?

Pretty surprised they’re not considering working from home as another option.

Surprised at how both the Xbox consoles were selling over a thousand last week but now the 2DS has overtaken them.

I hope this reboot is in the same style as Space Invaders Extreme on the DS.

I’d buy it but unfortunately I’m an ex-tractor fan.

Still got hopes for a Wind Waker/Twilight Princess HD port for the Switch.

The biggest omission I can think of is Disney Afternoon Collection, a bunch of NES games NOT coming out on the Switch.

Can’t wait for EA to bring out Madden Soccer 2023.

I could see Pop N Music in the list. Now that’s a title I haven’t thought about in ages.

A shame that it would be easier to remaster MGS from scratch rather than negotiate with Nintendo and Silicon Knights to get Twin Snakes re-released.

Sad thing is knowing that we'll probably never get an N64 Mini console.

>Wants a character included in a game where you beat up Duck Hunt Dog on the Duck Hunt stage.

PETA: "I'm going to pretend I didn't see that."

Farewell Super Mario Bros 2 slot mini game.

It's not common but some Japanese games actually have a full english option as well. Japanese Super Metroid, Super Smash Bros Melee and the DS Phoenix Wright series comes to mind.

Always thought it was because they combined "Meteor" and "Asteroid" in keeping with the space theme.

Rocko should be in this.
