Boo LA Noire, should have been Bully: Scholarship Edition. That's a game I will gladly replay for the 3rd time on the Switch.

I have it for Wii, PC, and iOS. And I'd buy it again on the Switch.

Wait, Konami is actually doing things with the series besides slapping it on Pachinko machines? Holy poo poo.

Their pachinko income has dropped by something like 80% due to gambling law changes, so they're trying to turn a profit through videogames again.

How to print money:

> Release every Gamecube game on the Switch. Especially Metal Gear: Twin Snakes, Metroid Prime, Godzilla, REmake, RE:0, and Mario Sunshine

> Release PS3/360 games that were too huge for the Wii

> Release every Wii U game (already underway with Kart and Pokken) especially Bayonetta 1/2 and all things Mario

> "HD" versions of the top tier DS and 3DS games like Link Between Worlds adjusted for single screen play

> Virtual Console (lol) including NES through Gamecube and Gameboy through GBA

> HD Remaster of Metroid Prime and Windwaker with customizable controls

> Make a non-Animal Crossing amiibo

> Special Edition HD Remaster of Metroid Prime with customizable controls, soundtrack, new Samus amiibo, art book, tchotchkes, and a steel case

> Metroid Prime 4 when?

> Metroid Prime

I wonder how much Konami would want for the licence for porting MGS games, being able to play a MGS/2/3 HD on the Switch would be awesome.

If they hadn't fired Kojima it would have probably already happened, remade in Fox :sigh:

Unfortunately the series is probably dead after the abortion that was FM:E. Which is a shame, as it was my favorite sqeenix IP. I don't think it was largely popular outside of though, so the likelihood of another game in the series is probably pretty low to begin with.

I'd be happy with an official translation of 5. I'd definitely replay that game.

L.A. Noire had potential but they shoehorned in an unneeded open world to try and appeal to GTA fans and they put the players in control of a cop with a tenuous grip of reality who conflates expressing doubt with accuse of conspiracy working in league with lizard people randomly throughout the game

I actually liked the driving sections of the game, it helped sell the feel and size of the game, and the conversations between the detectives in the cars was a clever way of getting a lot of characterization dialog in without being subjecting the player to long MGS-style cut scenes.

Hopefully this isn't Rockstar testing the waters of success with the switch. I'm sick of companies saying "buy this niche, old game we ported, or we will declare the switch bad and not bring over our good games." Also, is Nintendo ok with naked, dead women on their console?

I mean that's literally why the rating system exists, plus parental controls seem pretty robust on here. Don't see why it should be an issue.

I don't think they need to test the waters. There's an assload of Switches in the hands of the public and they're buying an assload of games.

It's not water testing when they are putting it out on everything. It's just inclusion.

Also it's generally less "testing the waters" and more "oh, so THIS is how to code a game for the Switch". A port of an existing title is a good practice run for understanding what should and shouldn't work before making something from the ground up.

There's no way that game would fit on a cartridge unless they massively downgraded it. The drat thing is 60 gigs now.

GTA Online made over a billion dollars so far in cash cards alone and is like the big draw to GTA5 now. Rockstar stopped doing single player DLC because GTA Online is so successful. They should just cut out GTA5 and put out GTA Online standalone.

Split it into two carts: GTAV and GTA Online. Two carts one package twice the flavor sensation
