It's a "leak" in the same way the Switch Pro, Metroid Prime Trilogy, and Pokemon Sun and Moon Switch leaks are

X and X2 are both really good. X3 is enjoyable but ultimately a bit overcomplicated. I think X2 might actually be my favorite of the SNES Xs.

X4 (also in the first collection) with Zero is also incredible and an example I use to describe the joy of motion in videogames. X4 with X is only alright in comparison and my least favorite part of the collection.

Is NSMBU Deluxe worth $27 at GameStop or is it really that generic?

It's Mario. It also includes the cool Luigi levels. If you like Mario it's a lot of content.

It’s solid if you’re hankering for 2D Mario and probably the best overall of the “New” series. But yes the art style and overall gameplay is very by the numbers, which is not to say it’s bad, but you’re gonna get exactly what you expect.

X4 with X is still way better than X3, which is easily the worst game in that collection.

X5-X8 are each flawed games with some redeeming qualities except X7 which might be the worst game in the entire MM franchise.

The Switch collection takes out the only redeemable feature of X5, which is the Guns N' Roses boss names.

Are there really no sales on DQ11 for Switch? It's like the one game I don't have that is still full price on Switch.

IMO the game still requires some commitment to googling stuff to find a lot of the really good stuff, and that "going outside the game" thing seems to turn off some players. You can find some really cool things with like 5-10 minutes of googling though, it's really not some terrible process.

One of the best ways to approach it for me is to specifically look up well-liked creators rather than individual levels and then you can "follow" them in-game. There are some absurdly talented people who have made insane amounts of content, and playing through all of someone's levels is a really cool way to see how their level design ideas progress and stuff.

Oh and, rather than insane kaizo levels the scourge of MM2 has become "refreshing levels" that just have you stomping through some absurd chaotic mess of lights and sounds that makes for some kind of creepy ASMR experience or something.

Did you play 1 before they added super expert? That solved most of the problems for me, most of the real trash ascends to that level leaving expert relatively playable. Doesnt account for quality, sometimes you still get a bad level, but at least theyre clearable

So in Europe Bioshock is up for 30 euro, CTR is 20, Dark Souls is 20, and FE: TH is up for 40.

Vesperia is tempting at 12.50. I loved Symphonia and I sank a whole summer into back in high school, but I don't have that time anymore and I don't even know if I would enjoy it. Symphonia was annoying/great since you had to replay it to see different paths/unlock everything. That's just not happening anymore.

Bioshock... 3 games at 10 euro each, but like I've played the first already and the other 2 only just about interest me.

CTR would hold my interest for 20 minutes probably.

Everyone should get Dark Souls at 20 euro, game's brilliant.

And FE is still too expensive at 40, for me anyway. I'm afraid of disliking it so much that I don't want to drop that much on it. Kinda bummed that everything that's actually on my wishlist isn't for sale, but that's fine. I'm enjoying Deadly Premonition plenty at this point.

It boggles may mind how Super Mario Maker 2 isn't part of the Switch's 10+ million evergreen titles. The game is intuitive, fun, and has endless amount of content with more being added everyday.

Bioshock infinite would actually be pretty fun on the switch I think. It's a weird game for sure and I don't blame anyone for not liking it but if you like those house of the dead style rail shooters it's pretty good

Its mostly just 2 is the only one that is remotely concerned about how it plays, as a video game, with a lot of interesting abilities and mechanics to mess around with. There's a huge emphasis on combat challenges and you actually want to go out of your way to do them because they're genuinely fun, where combat in 1 and Infinite either sucks or is something you tolerate

It's interesting that 2 is supposedly the only good one since it is by far and wide the most ignored.

Its ignored by the people that play Bioshock games for the story, because the story in 2 reads like bad Bioshock 1 fanfiction and doesn't try to impress you with stunt writing like the twists in 1 and Infinite
