@Warioware Ahh word word, definitely gotta look into that then thanks ^^. I loved the 3D Ninja Gaiden on Xbox back in the day. That's the thing about patches, it's so useful for devs to fix games. I may go digital if ever I do pick up the Gaiden Trilogy cause the physical isn't complete and plus needs patches anywho. EDIT: Looks like the import version is complete o.o
Dang... what a shame :/ I was looking forward to having these on me switch at some point, but I guess now I opt out. Bit to the side here but wasn't the Ninja Gaiden Trilogy also a poor port to the switch?
Hmmm.. guess ill toss my hat in. I think Steam Deck is awesome and I hope it does well. I'm not gonna be adopting until well into them being polished. But I gotta say the Steam Deck is exciting..
I feel like Nintendo's unique angle is their legacy content, which they've so far kind of snubbed. I think the biggest plague to the Switch is it's online infrastructure and lack of a real online player ecosystem. It's a struggle sometimes to find people to play with or to befriend on the Switch which in turn separates the player base and prevents the ecosystem to truly grow.
I know Dread is still super fresh and many haven't played it yet.. but I'd still be down for those new episodes the dev's were hinting at. Maybe as DLC, but I kinda figure somehow that a new game overall would be better.
This looks pretty hype, though I'm kinda into this sorta thing. Bit random but, Rampage is a different style of game but I miss it after watching this lol.
I never played Golden Sun but I know of it's illustrious reputation. Also, I heard this bomb battle theme (remix) from the game though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cF5WeKW8wbI
Would love the play it someday..
I'm kind of awaiting the holiday sales to see what has a good price. I didn't buy Super Monkey Ball or Nick Brawl... Pokemon is also calling out to me now :/
Aye. I'm conflicted, I want to stream some of the games especially cause I haven't played some of em. It would also be nice to revisit some N64 games also. This is prolly the most practical way to play them for me outside of emulators. Essentially, +$30 yearly for a bunch of games while old, I haven't played a lot of em. I gotta renew online soon, so this choice is tearing at me.
Hmmm... so wait are there full on-cart physical editions coming? I'm really comfortable digital these days, but if we (off-topic) go into the cloud, that's where I draw the line. I do hope this collection gets a proper physical especially cause its a compilation of some of the best GTA games.
As @fafonio says above me. I think it's better to avoid this holiday season anyway, what with SMT5, Metroid Dread, Mario Party, Pokemon Remakes, and Arceus early 2022. Releasing in Spring along with or before Kirby seems a better time.
Side Note: I wish the graphics weren't so toy-like. There is something off about the infantry units that make them look super cheap to me. While these updated graphics are definitely crisp, but I almost prefer the original pixel art simply because it fit better with the world they made despite the simple graphics.
This is the reason why I figured they should have went with N64-GBA. That way they stay strictly Nintendo. This would have been monumentally cheaper and would have made them just as much money if not more. I mean the Switch is the culmination of all things Nintendo, right? This whole Sega deal could have been like a side-app or something.
Increasing the price by $4.99 (or just free) is what most of us want but I see Nintendo going the $9.99 route. I'm hype cause it gives me convenient access to N64 games on my Switch. The only question is, why did they wait SOOO LONG to give us this D:
If there were deep trade-in value for my OG switch then I may consider but I haven't heard of that sort of thing going on like with the red box Switch. I'll just wait as prices drop over the years, plus my current Switch is still functional so let's go! The enhancements while nice just aren't enough to make me shell out so much cash.
@Markiemania95 Ugh.. I so hear you on this. I use that extra USB for my PDP light up dock and now it'd be gone with the new dock. Now we gotta get LAN-USB or something? ><;
@PikaPhantom Yea, the mechanics are interesting enough too. The whole spell tier Fire > Fira > Firaga seems like a clever twist on items. I do hope these are early builds.
Awhh, maybe they'll make updates to the physics or mini-games in future patches? Just spitballin' here.. And hey it's still cool to have SMB on the Switchie.. albeit with a few changes.
I'm just glad that Nigel doesn't look as trash tier as he did in that other video (forgot which 1). Would've been nice if when he did attacks more actual animals came out, though budget or time may be a constraint.

Re: Nintendo Reveals The Top 15 Most-Downloaded Switch Games In October 2021 (Europe)
Super glad to see Metroid Dread at the No.1 spot. I hope this spawns more Metroid!
Re: Gallery: Metroid Dread amiibo Are Finally Here In Europe, And They're Rather Lovely
It looks nice and even with an EMMI. My brother gave me a Shulk Amiibo and it means a lot. I'm waiting to get the eventual Pyra/Mythra Amiibo
Re: Gallery: Check Out The Animal Crossing: New Horizons Museum In First-Person Mode
@RobotReptile Ahh I see.. so its not like a full first person deal.. :/ Thanks though !
Re: Gallery: Check Out The Animal Crossing: New Horizons Museum In First-Person Mode
Wait what, does this mean we can just walk around the whole game in first person o.o?

Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For November And December 2021
Leaning more and more toward SMT5 for my holiday game, but Pokemon is always nice.

@Specter_of-the_OLED That would seriously be awesome.

Re: Nintendo Switch Online's N64 Games Need Some Work
Looks like I'm now waiting. I guess SNES streaming online instead :/

Re: Tetris 99 Is Hosting A Metroid Dread Crossover Event This Weekend
Yay! Finally a Metroid theme with Metroid music for Tetris 99. Lovin that Xenoblade one, would be dope for Xenoblade 2 (it'll never happen T^T).

Re: Nintendo Leaker Suggests Pricing Of Switch Online's Expansion Pack Could Be Tied To "Licensing Costs"

This whole Sega deal could have been like a side-app or something.
Re: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Release Date And Pricing Revealed
Utterly disappointing... I really thought it would be an additional $10 - 15, but $30!? Completely Lame.
Re: Japanese Charts: Metroid Dread Outsells Far Cry 6 To Claim Number One
Let's GOOO! Maketh Metroid expand more and more.. Glad people are still picking it up and having fun with their first in the series. Enjoy

Re: Random: Ever Wonder What Metroid's Samus Aran Would Look Like In Marvel vs. Capcom 2?
@Chamver That'd be cool to have, and then we go into UMVC3 style graphics with the necessary sequel.
Re: Video: Comparing The OLED, Switch, And Switch Lite Screens
@Zuljaras Yea, that totally happened with the 3DS to the 'New' 3DS. That can only be generally good for Nintendo and the consumer base
Re: Rockstar Officially Announces Grand Theft Auto Trilogy For Switch
Maybe with a physical version of this, I can actually play GTA and not just run around blowing things up with cheats XD.
Re: Video: Digital Foundry Gives Its Assessment Of The Switch OLED Model
@GrailUK LOL.. You got this!!
DF videos are cool and definitely gonna watch this one.
Re: Sad Times, The Amazing Flip Grip Accessory Doesn't Work On Switch OLED
I love the concept of the Flip Grip.
It would have been cool had Nintendo thought of and utilized this idea. All the vertical games would play awesome with this set up.
Just imagine for a second, NDS or 3DS ports or Emulators running with the Flip Grip set-up.
That would just add to the idea that the Switch is in a sense the culmination to all of what Nintendo released before it.

Not for me... I was waiting on a physical or digital of 1.5 and 2.5 too :/ Portable KH collection would have been so cool..
Re: A Closer Look At Sora's Smash Bros. Stage, Music, Final Smash, Kirby Transformation And More
Hoo boy that Sora's Final Smash is an absolute spectacle.
Re: Feature: So, Who Will Be The Final Fighter In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?
Recent convert here. Toree for Smash!
Re: Round Up: Eight Awesome Switch Games From The Nintendo Life Indie Spotlight
Already delighted by Toreh... Die by the Blade, Dawn of the Monsters, and Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon are definitely the highlights for me.
Re: Out Now: Toree 2 Hops Onto Switch And Only Costs A Buck
@czdjax Which is why at $1 it's great! I feel like it just needs more content, there's plenty to love here..
Re: Out Now: Toree 2 Hops Onto Switch And Only Costs A Buck
I'm playing this game rn. It's a blast and the music is pretty kick ass, though it was set so low by default. Definitely worth me gold points
Re: Out Now: Toree 2 Hops Onto Switch And Only Costs A Buck
@GamingBread Thanks... Looks like I'm buying another game ^^!
Re: Out Now: Toree 2 Hops Onto Switch And Only Costs A Buck
This game looks like a lot of fun so I bought it (and at $1, come on). Is Toree 3D considered the first game?
Re: Join Us For The Nintendo Life Indie Spotlight, Returning On 4th October
Wow, this sounds fun and cool. Go NL! Hope I can make it!
Re: Review: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot + A New Power Awakens Set - An Iconic Story Retold Well
@Snatcher Sounds about the price I'm looking for, though physical maybe harder to find at the price, but easier at like $30 or something.
Re: Review: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot + A New Power Awakens Set - An Iconic Story Retold Well
I knew it'd be better to wait and that totally confirms it. Thanks for the heads up @Snatcher !
Re: Review: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot + A New Power Awakens Set - An Iconic Story Retold Well
I wanna be Goku and experience his story for a bit so I guess this game works out well for me... though maybe not as a full fat $60 purchase..
Re: Video: Here's Another Look At Square Enix's New Racing Game Chocobo GP
@PikaPhantom Yea, the mechanics are interesting enough too. The whole spell tier Fire > Fira > Firaga seems like a clever twist on items. I do hope these are early builds.
Re: Review: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania - Feature-Packed, But Far From Top Banana
Awhh, maybe they'll make updates to the physics or mini-games in future patches? Just spitballin' here.. And hey it's still cool to have SMB on the Switchie.. albeit with a few changes.
Re: Exclusive: Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl - Nigel Thornberry Move Set Showcase
I'm just glad that Nigel doesn't look as trash tier as he did in that other video (forgot which 1). Would've been nice if when he did attacks more actual animals came out, though budget or time may be a constraint.
