4·7 days agoAbsolutely! Can’t wait! That Stan Bush song on the trailer, hope it’s in the game too!
Yeah and it’s great they have all the different versions! I’m curious about playing Silver Surfer, but the only reference I have is Angry Video Game Nerd’s video on it 😂
Yeah, I got the physical version and really enjoyed it. But as you said, there are so many others, that it kind of got drowned out. I haven’t played it in a while! I know there was at least one more update with free content before this one, so there’s a few new things to check out.
I kept playing River City Saga: Three Kingdoms. I finished a couple of chapters and got some really cool powerups. I hope to finish the main story before I get the sequel.
Seeing the sad news about Kazuo Sawa made me nostalgic for the classic Kunio-Kun games. The music in these games is amazing and some of these tunes are burned into my memory. I booted up Double Dragon & Kunio-kun: Retro Brawler Bundle on my Switch. I played mostly Kunio-Kun No Nekketsu Soccer League, the best football game ever made in my humble opinion. I used to play this on the Famicom when I was a kid. The music is so good and the game is so much fun!
I also got my Nintendo Classics Virtual Boy delivered today, but I won’t be able to play any games until the app releases on the 17th. I played it at a friend’s house in the 90’s, so it’ll be interesting to relive that. I’m looking forward to trying out Wario and Teleroboxer.
There’s been rumors about a new Rayman. if they were true, this would be one of the two new Rayman projects Ubisoft has been working on for this year.
Yes, I guess they might have a different version for each console. But their Kickstarter shows the Nintendo Switch logo.
This is based on a true story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flannan_Isles_Lighthouse
Yes 😆 It looks lile they’re building on the same engine as Three Kingdoms, but the attacks look different on this one. It’ll be interesting to play after Three Kingdoms!
Yeah, there’s been a lot of River City games, which I’m thankful for! I already got Three Kingdoms Next which I read improves on a lot of stuff. I’ve played both original River City Girls too, I’m looking forward to whatever comes next after Three Kingdoms.
About Darksiders, I played the first one on Switch in 2019, and I enjoyed it. It felt like an older school Zelda 3D game. Since then I’ve been thinking of getting Darksiders II on Switch, but never got around to it. It’s usually found rather cheap, so I still might get it. I might try it out this year and then check out Darksiders III after I read your post!
I recently played Donkey Kong Country Returns HD on the Switch 2 to check out the latest updates. I almost instantly remembered why I abandoned it 🤣 I was on the last world (I think), and it just feels unfairly difficult, and I never really clicked with the feel of the controller. So I don’t know if I’ll come back to it with more patience at some point or what. Never made it that far in Tropical Freeze.
Today is the 35th anniversary of the first introduction of Street Fighter II to arcades. To celebrate, I’ll be playing some fights of Street Fighter II in any of its several iterations available on Switch 😅
I’ve been playing River City Saga: Three Kingdoms, which is a lot of fun. I just haven’t had time to advance much in the story, but hopefully that’ll change this weekend 🤞
Good thing about having terrible memory is I can watch the trailer and by the time I watch the movie I will have forgotten absolutely everything 😅
Yeah, they initially wanted to release it together with modern systems. But since they can’t patch it once it’s out, they decided to take some time to make sure it’s in a good state to release it. I think the last I read was on Retro Gamer magazine where they said there’s plans to release the cartridge in 2026.
Yeah, I played the demo on Steam and it looks really good and it’s fun. I think I’ll get this physical release.
I’m really looking forward to playing Earthion. I’m waiting for its physical release on the Mega Drive to get it! (hopefully comes out this year… )
It has some issues, but I enjoyed it. I think a new game would be done from scratch by Retro, whereas in this case they inherited a half baked thing from Namco and had to build on top of that. Thay would probably make it a much better game. If they take in the feedback from 4 on top of that, it’d be amazing.
Yeah, I don’t think I’ll be getting this, but I think the assist mode will be great for lots of people.
Yeah, lot of the old guard are getting to (and past) retirement age. But that doesn’t mean Nintendo will stop making these games. They’re just going to train new people. If the game sells, they’ll want to make another one eventually.
The water looks so good!
