The boomers tried to take away these types of games . But it’s fine to call it a boomer shooter. These games were all about the boom and the action. Then came the zoomer shooters which focused on cut scenes with sprinklings of action.
If it’s like most all the other n64 online offerings, I will play it for 10 minutes and give up due to the pro controller settings. Yes I know I can remap the buttons. But I'm kind of dumb and slightly lazy and don’t feel like remapping for all these games. Would be nice if they remapped them for me.
Remastering a mediocre game for the same system? Not a free update? Trash .Putting playtonic on the no buy list with Qubic. And judging by their catalog it doesn’t look like I’m missing much.
I’ll never forget when I bought one of these nba 2k games for my kid. Had to go back and then buy a bigger memory card to play it from cartridge . I had always assumed you would only need the cartridge.
I wish Nintendo would fix the controls for the N64 games when not using a 64 controller.. really shouldn’t have to do google searches of how to make input changes for each game.
I think this is the first time I have not been excited for a new Nintendo console. I love the switch so much and I’m not ready to say goodbye. Unless it’s backwards compatible !
It’s a 10. I’m watching my kids and their friends play it for the first time and they are enthralled. The remaster is great. But if you deleted this game from history and was just released today it’s still a 10
Yes it’s my fault for not reading reviews. But Mario strikers is super disappointing. Definitely does not feel complete. For those who don’t play online, it’s a complete waste of money. Here’s hoping future updates add more single player options.
I’d guess Nintendo has a higher percentage of parents buying games for their kids than PlayStation and Xbox. They can get away with doing fewer discounts
Wow… the buyers remorse has set in pretty quick on this one. Not nearly as good as GameCube or Wii strikers. Hopefully they have some updates for single player. Wish I read more reviews. Oh well, I’m glad strikers is back and here’s hoping we get some updates .
Seen this movie twice so far. It’s so good. Really did the original justice while making something fresh and new. Ugly Sonic was funny along with a lot of surprise appearances. Possibly one of the best straight to Disney Plus movies released so far. Wish it was in theaters!
Got the expansion day one. I like the n64 games they’ve released, but I wasn’t expecting them to abandon the other services. Hopefully we get more snes nes and genesis games regularly.
I’m loving the game so far. It’s the most time I’ve spent on the expansion service since I bought it day 1. Looking forward to banjo kazooie too as I missed that game as well on the console back then
There’s just not enough here for me to upgrade… eventually I will probably get the service. For now,, there just isn’t a service seller in that list of 64 and genesis games.
I like that they release games I’ve never heard of, just wish they would release some more that I have heard of. I’d especially like them to release more consoles like TG16 or N64. I have the NSO for these releases . There is nothing I play online. I would even pay more annually for better releases.

Re: Balatro Dev Urges Fans To Buy More Indie Games As Title Hits 5 Million Units Sold
This guy needs to tell me to buy less. My backlog is getting out of control.
My favorite “indie”?
Horace!
Not just my favorite indie but maybe my favorite game on Switch.
Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Trailer Gives First Official Look At The New Console
I will likely buy this day 1. However first impressions are that this looks very uncomfortable to play in hand held.
Re: Review: Star Trek: Legends (Switch) - Competent Combat But Fails To Engage
That reminds me… I wish Nintendo allowed me to block companies like Qubic from showing up in my eshop
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch Year In Review 2024 - Our Most Played Games
I won’t look! It would be a shocking amount of time spent on the switch.
I know I spent waaaay more time on Star Wars Hunters than I thought I would. That game really blew away expectations. Pretty fun!

I’d like a metroidvania style mega man game

Re: Balatro Has Officially Sold 1 Million Copies
My family hates this game. They want their dad back.
Re: Balatro Back On Switch eShop In Europe With New Age Rating
Wow. Whoever is giving the ratings is not paying attention to what they are rating. This game is appropriate for any age (based on content anyway).
Re: Balatro Surpasses 500,000 Sales In First 10 Days
I don’t know about GOTY discussion. But it is no doubt a really great game.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Metroid Prime Remastered?
It’s a 10. I’m watching my kids and their friends play it for the first time and they are enthralled. The remaster is great. But if you deleted this game from history and was just released today it’s still a 10
Re: Nintendo Updates Its 'Switch Online + Expansion Pack' Trailer With New Footage
I really like the service but I’d like to see them add TG16 and more SNES.
Re: Feature: Video Game Music That Didn't Need To Go That Hard
Mega Man 2 popped a viagra and started hard, stayed hard, and ended hard. So hard they had to call him Rock Man!
Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online N64 Service With GoldenEye 007
Controls… Bad Controls.

Re: Review: Sports Story - A Long-Awaited Sequel That's Sadly Not Up To Par
I must be Captain Oblivious. I’m a few hours in and am loving it as much as Golf Story. Haven’t had any issues on my end.
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th December (North America)
I downloaded sports story day one. Haven’t had any issues so far. It’s great. If you loved Golf Story then go for it.

Great read!! Now I really want GameCube on my switch. And yes I’ll pay even more for a switch expansion PLUS subscription!
Re: Poll: What Order Should You Play Live A Live In? And Does It Even Matter?
I can’t play this game until I know how to pronounce the title. I probably need professional “help”.
Re: GoldenEye 007 Relaunch On Modern Consoles Reportedly 'In Limbo'
Whoever in charge just needs to release it on 64 console. It hasn’t aged well anyway, who cares!
Re: Four Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Games Have Been Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack
Well the genesis app just went from the bottom of the library to the top !
Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online N64 Library Next Week With Pokémon Snap
Wishful thinking I guess!
Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online N64 Library Next Week With Pokémon Snap
@Grumblevolcano maybe I’m mistaken but I thought they also announced DK64?
Re: Every Game From The Wholesome Direct 2022 Coming To Switch
@Diogmites ah! Yes that does look Kikiesque thanks

Re: The Legend Of Zelda: Majora's Mask Is Being Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack In February
Got the expansion day one. I like the n64 games they’ve released, but I wasn’t expecting them to abandon the other services. Hopefully we get more snes nes and genesis games regularly.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Short Games
I’d add Yokus Island Express. Can’t remember the play time on it but thought it was fairly short
Re: Poll: Paper Mario Is Out Now On Nintendo Switch Online, Will You Be Playing It?

Re: NIS America Sale Discounts 34 Games On Nintendo Switch
If I didn’t suck at video games I’d go after la Mulana 1 and 2.
Re: Poll: N64 And Sega Genesis Nintendo Switch Online Games Launch Today - Which Will You Play First?
There’s just not enough here for me to upgrade… eventually I will probably get the service. For now,, there just isn’t a service seller in that list of 64 and genesis games.
Re: Gallery: Nintendo Switch OLED Vs Standard Switch - The Key Differences In Pictures
I’d like one. But it’s not a big enough difference to justify upgrading right now. They also haven’t fixed the controllers so I’ll pass for now.
Re: Switch's N64 Controller Is Hiding Some Extra Buttons
I never liked the genesis controllers so I’ll use my snes controllers there. Gonna have to get one of those n64 controllers though
