It was needed for the DS because it was a lovely plastic screen that scratched up easily.

This is an exciting time, for nintendo and video game enthusiasts! I hope that everyone's favorite game gets an updated port, and that game you really like but everyone else forgot about finally gets a sequel.

If Kid Icarus: Uprising gets a sequel then I will die a happy man. Even if the rumored new Nintendo Warriors game uses Kid Icarus characters and has the same level of writing that Uprising had, that'll be enough to satisfy me

The new Zelda is going to be the greatest game ever made. The new Mario is going to be the second greatest game ever made. I'm going to buy Splatoon, Mario Kart 8, Smash, and Mario Maker again for 60 dollars each. They're going to nerf Bayonetta and add K Rool to smash and it'll be amazing. The weird rear end Rabbids Mario RPG is also going to be fun as hell out of nowhere and will go down as the most beloved Paper Mario game since TTYD.

Animal Crossing is probably one of those things that felt like it should always have been a portable game, kinda like FF Tactics.

ftfy. I too am happy that the Switch may suck up all the niche Vita/3DS games. I'd really like to see stuff from Vanillaware, NIS, and Atlus on the Switch.
