All Nintendo has to do is say the words "Metroid Prime" and they'll get sixty of my American dollars, IDK what's taking them so long.

The worst Metroid game is Metroid. I haven’t played Federation Force but I feel confident in this opinion.

would Bayonetta 3 have a chance to show up at a "Partner Showcase" or does Nintendo consider that a first-party title
the game is allegedly supposed to come out this year.

It's real

Hunters was pretty fun for being a multiplayer deathmatch fps on a handheld console in the 2000s, even if the singleplayer was pretty unremarkable.

Metroid Prime will come to Switch packed as a trilogy but will still require wiimote + nunchuk, and a special accessory to make those work with Switch.

I gameshare with my brother, so every time I play a digital game on switch it checks the internet before launching. On a flight today, I discovered it does not check the internet before launching the virtual console channels*. Decided to play Joe and Mac 2 for the first time in a very long time. That game has a great atmosphere.

*as long as you’ve launched the channel within the last week or so.


Edit: in a perfect world, we could get both Chuck Rock games on the VC channels.

I would totally buy a Metroid Prime remaster for Switch. I didn't have a Gamecube when the game came out and only got to play a little of it on a friend's system. I've been hearing about how great a game it is for 20 years now and I should really get around to finally playing through it. A Switch remaster would do that for me.

It's not that bad when you're a kid with no internet to distract you.

I hope those FF remasters are coming to Switch. I want to finally play 6 and that version seems good.

Is the Switch wifi notoriously janky or something?

I tried playing Fall Guys and it runs like complete rear end (bad lag and really choppy frame rate)...I never really do the online portions of games except Mario Kart. Do I need to run an ethernet cable? :confused:

Same, I'd almost certainly pick up 4 and 6, even if I have them available on my GBA or SNES mini respectively.

I also sort of want to play 1 but I need some fast forward for that or something.

God, talking about FF makes me want to start FFX2 but I just finished with X and need a bit of a break.

Also also, Disco Elysium remains incredible. I thought I was genuinely wrapping things up and this case just blew wide open. I do wonder where my new sidequests are going to come though because I've thoroughly exhausted those it seems.

I haven't played it or the first one (which is 8 bucks on Steam right now and I should grab that) yet but from what I understand, yes. Some differences, but the small bit I've heard (surprisingly unspoiled all these years) hasn't been enough to tell if they're significant or just "not in the same world as Nonary". It's definitely along the same lines.

Just note that it's a sequel that just came out. Might or might not matter, I don't think I'd mind throwing someone into Virtue's Last Reward without 999 if they had some reason to skip it even though there's some context that would be missing; VLR filled in the gaps as much as VLR needed to.
