Who's played Assault Suits Valken Declassified? It's cheap at the moment and it looks rad

I've very much enjoyed turning my Switch into a retro game storage closet over the years

Literally played it for the first time today after buying it ages ago! I loved this game on the snes and this version is great! It's such a cool game, you really feel like you're piloting a big robot. Absolutely pick it up! The music rips

I've been considering it, but I still have the SNES version (called "Cybernator" in the US). I assume the "Declassified" refers to restoring a particular cutscene very near the end of the game?

It's a full retranslastion that adds character art and a bunch of missing text. Also there's reportedly some 40 pages of flavor text from the old manual that's been translated

Cybernator kicks so much rear end.
Speed through the first mission without attacking anything but the boss for a fun surprise.

Lol this game is so silly. Thanks for the recommendation.

By the way I loved Super Mario Wonder, and just did a playthrough with my soon to be 8 year old and we both enjoyed it a bunch once he got into the "vibe." We just beat it tonight.

At the gym he's been playing "Super Mario Galaxy" on a wii - is there a direct equivalent of that on Switch? I'm going to get him a game for his birthday. Otherwise I'm thinking Minecraft, Splatoon, Super Mario Odyssey, or Kirby and the Forgotten Land. How much time do you need to put in to Minecraft to "have fun"? We currently nearly exclusively play together for ~45-60m a few nights a week because the switch is out in my office where he can't be unsupervised but that's likely to change soon.

I'm also going to get him a physical game since I don't think it makes sense to bind a game into my account given I presume he might wind up with one of these things of his own soonish. Unless there is something I am missing there where I can move a game to another account like I own it and am not just purchasing a revocable nontransferable license to use the software.

Odyssey is the galaxy equivalent on Switch at the moment. 3D World is good too but is a bit less ambitious

Perfect. I think he's going to love it. Thanks.

To add to that, 3D World has multiplayer while Odyssey doesn't.


etc- Well, Odyssey has a co-op where one person controls the hat, but nothing remotely to the extent of 3D World where both people play together.
