Me too.

I understand the complaint that the cape trivializes a lot of the game, but the controls in World are so much better that, for me, it isn't even a contest. World for life.

So Nintendo Labo has not only been teaching my Nephew about simple science and the technology behind the Toycons and Switch, it also just told him what a kebab is. This is proper good edutainment.

SMB 3 is my favorite 2D Mario. I really like the variety of power-ups in 3, and having an inventory to hold them. I'd really like to see a NSMB game that took more direct inspiration from 3.

I don't really care what they call their classic games label so long as I can play my super metroids and Link to the Pasts on the Switch. I'm just worried they're going to take forever adding new games because they're gonna be taking the time to add online functionality to a bunch of the titles.

I look forward to posting a sub 40 time for Super Metroid though

What I'm unhappy about is that by putting it on the publisher, I am imagining the final fantasy and chrono trigger reskins that square shat out recently. What I would have liked is true emulation, not reskins, and so I will power up a raspberry pi instead.

All I want is a “Classic Games” or “ Virtual Console” icon on the home menu that takes me to an NES Classic menu where I can play a ton of older games.

How can you gently caress this up when you literally have a product that does exactly this.

It's really pre-mature to be saying you wish you put money into Wii Shop when Nintendo's PR people said "won't be under the Virtual Console banner", and the article itself says that they meant that the marketing would be changed.

That old as gently caress Mario game that sells for 8 on the estore has made somewhere around 11 million dollars. The writing is on the wall that reselling games like Majoras mask for 20-40 is $$$.

All I see is a crybaby that couldn't git gud and find the guaranteed no-effort way to kill shield dudes in the fifth-best Zelda ever made.

A remake that improved the bosses and differentiated the art style between dungeons would be awesome.
