@Not_Soos Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The trees and bushes are still lacking, but everything else is pretty close to the base game. Also it is now a bit jarring going from wave 1(easily the ugliest of the bunch) to these later waves.
@Dr_Corndog Uhm, how so? They're different tracks, just with similar DK jungle theming. Using that logic, wouldn't Rainbow Road be redundant now? There's now going to be 5 Rainbow Roads in the game.
So Konami actually took note of Legends not being included in the Anniversary Collection and rectified that. Well done Konami. Gives me some hope that maybe they'll put Castlevania 64 and/or Legacy of Darkness on NSO.
@SoIDecidedTo Haha. You married the wrong woman. My wife actually got me the first Splatoon for my birthday. I'll never forget when she came into our bedroom and saw me playing it for the first time she said "What is this?!" and she immediately fell in love with it.
Congrats to Team Ghost. I still can't believe Ghost got 63% of the popular vote. PS Zombies are still way cooler and zombie movies are the best LOL. All hail the George Romero classics like Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead, the all time comedy horror great The Return of the Living Dead and the Lucio Fulci Italian gore epics Zombie, City of the Living Dead and The Beyond!
yawn Let's get some Perfect Dark and Castlevania 64/Legacy of Darkness action instead. Oh, and where are the Cruis'n games? No reason not to throw the whole N64 trilogy on there since Nintendo owns the publishing rights to them.
@Desrever Don't forget you can go see Murch and have him change the primary abilities on the gear for you. As long as you have enough ability chunks of course.
@Judgedean I don't think it's aged any worse than any other early to mid 90s "boomer shooter." Not to mention this will be like all other Nightdive remasters where it's going to look significantly better than it did 28 years ago while staying true to the original presentation/style.
@Otoemetry Yeah I know. It's extremely disappointing. The belief was they were rotating each season. New or returning stage and a new King Salmonid, but now sadly it appears that is not the case. Unless there is still a new King coming and they're just keeping him in secrecy for the upcoming Big Run. Possible at least.. Also, aren't some of those weird Salmon Run locker stickers supposed to be some of the new Kings? Surely there's going to be more than just Coho and boros..
@PKDuckman Do mods for those actually exist? I know the N64 Quake 1 mod was already a thing upon Quake Remastered's release so they included it day 1, but I've not heard of mods for the PS1 and N64 versions of Quake 2.
I didn't even know they had been offline this whole time LOL. I spent countless hours playing MK 8 and Splatoon on my Wii U, makes me slightly nostalgic. However, unless you're someone who is obsessed with firehopping, I can't see any reason to play the original MK 8. It's just so lacking in content compared to Deluxe. I do miss some of those stages(come back salt spray rig!) and the music from Splatoon, but still, 3 is vastly superior in almost every regard and Splatoon 1 doesn't even have my beloved Salmon Run, so really no desire to play it now.
LOL! This garbage bottom feeder developer is the literal Asylum of game developers! [If you don't know who Asylum is, look them up. Ever heard of the Shark Tornado movies? Yep, that's them.]
@marcelominucelli For real, it's really infuriating. What is Nintendo's obnoxious obsession with this crappy mobile game that hardly anyone plays? Last I checked MK 8 Deluxe was the big dog. Has sold a mind boggling 54 million copies.
@HammerGalladeBro "-I'm disappointed that GBA Sunset Wilds doesn't transition to night like in the original, but the lack of transition was also a thing in MKT."
That is incorrect. It does transition to night in Tour.
Give me a break.. It doesn't need any "grand new idea." It's an anti-gravity racer. You give it beautiful modern HD graphics, great courses and some great music. Give it some well designed online racing like Mario Kart 8 and you're good to go. Also, Mario Kart and F-Zero co-existed just fine for years. Both series made their debut on the SNES and continued on together on the various home consoles and handhelds, no prob. It wasn't until the Wii era that Nintendo decided for no good reason to just suddenly abandon F-Zero. Get bent with this nonsense Nintendo.
I think pretty much everyone had given up hope of Gamecube coming to NSO by now. This reissue thing is a farce though. Super Mario Sunshine, a couple Pikmin, one Metroid Prime out of a trilogy.. That's nothing. Gamecube had a library of over 600 games. That's not to say that the current NSO offerings aren't lacking either, but they're at least a lot more substantial than that.
I guess this dingleberry missed the entire Wii era when they put 5 Call of Duty's on the console. Surely there must have been a 'market' for them to keep porting over CoD's over and over again.
Well at least we now have an official explanation why no CoD ever came to the Switch. I was always dumbfounded that the Wii U managed to get 2 entries while the mega-success Switch did not. Just absolutely absurd. Although his argument is still no excuse. It's understandable to have been skeptical of the Switch at launch, especially when considering the failure of the Wii U that had just occured, but they could have and should have reversed course when they saw the Switch selling like gangbusters week after week, month after month, year after year. Shameful and pathetic Activision. Not that I really even like CoD very much. I just like to play Zombies.
Nice! I know Quake 1 is better, but still happy to see the sequel get some love. I wonder if a Quake 3 remaster could still happen as well? Give it crossplay and that would be bangin.
@Jeronan Uhh what? I love all 3 of the games, but 3 bests 2 in nearly every aspect. Yeah, it has problems, but they are constantly fixing and improving things.
@SeantheDon29 Uhm, a new entry is not coming to the Switch, guaranteed. MK 8 Deluxe IS the Switch's Mario Kart. We won't see a new game until the Switch's successor is here, which is probably 1 to 2 years away.
