Why would I be interested in NES games when you've got a NES Mini for purchase?
Why would I be interested in SNES games when you've got a SNES Mini for purchase?

At least put loving N64 or Gamecube games in the Online Service.

for serious if we talked good nes games i'd say gun-dec, gun nac, super mario bros 3, little samson and blaster master are still pretty good

the nes mega mans have a lot of good bits but definitely are mostly just, done better in other mega man games. mm2 has too much bullshit and the doc robots pad out mm3 real bad

Because they're games that don't come with the NES Mini?

Because Switch is infinitely more portable than NES Mini?

Daemon X Machina is the Einhander sequel I wanted, except with giant robots, nice.

I hope the getting out on foot thing means I can steal other robots, too. Then it could also make me think of it as a metal warriors thing.

Is it wrong that the bit I liked the most from the Direct were the Card Games and Board Games?

I don't own a Switch, just saying.

its a good card game, and the first of FFG's LCGs. I hope its a good version and then FFG can go on to somehow get the rights to publish their star wars games
