I was already happy with Nintendo this year, the heck.

 

[DanganZilla5]

Can't wait to cause kid friendly vehicular manslaughter as Car Kirby next month.

Nintendo is trying to make their own kid friendly version of Twisted Metal.

 

[TheMightyP]

Hm...

Perhaps Xeno3 is worth

 

[Hadokeyblade]

Klonoa is cool. Crono Cross is cool (if weird we’re getting it before Trigger). Kirby is still Kirby. EarthBound 1 and 2 on switch is long overdue (hopefully Mario RPG comes soon too). Everything else… Meh.

Seriously, a Warriors game that’s just Three Houses? After Age of Calamity it’s just disappointing that they’re doing this again. IMO the main appeal of these Nintendo Warriors games is the crossover angle.

Its weird right? Persona 5 strikers did this same thing lol

Is that Joker Persona 5?

 

[Mamboo07]

I love that there's a fat Blipper

 

[MooMew64]

oh yeah and guess I’ll join Lamperouge and spend $50 on mid

Mario Kart DLC makes NSO worth it to me now

 

[TheMightyP]

They should put the fighters passes on the Expansion Pass as well.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

so glad Nintendo knows that Fyleth is better than Myleth (just as Mobin and Forrin are better than Fobin and Morrin)

good ol bias

 

[---]

Not my thing, but it is a BIG deal that the Radical Dreamers Satellaview game is getting re-released and officially translated. That was one of the rarest SNES games out there. Like rare enough that it makes Earthbound look as common as Super Mario World or F-Zero rare.

No joke with how expensive both are that would actually make NSO a good deal.

Hot damn, and I was just glad something was being saved from the depths of Satellaview Hell.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Very solid direct, a little something for everyone

MARIO STRIKERS BABY, ITS GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK

And gotta say, I'm interested in that Disney racer, if only for it's potential roster

 

[MooMew64]

MARIO STRIKERS BABY, ITS GOOD TO SEE YOU BACK

HECK YEAH MAN

A GOOD MARIO SPORTS GAME, HECKING FINALLY

Maybe other satellaview stuff could get dumped somewhere, for curiosity's sake.

Joker but cool

It would.

That's why they aren't gonna do it

As a huge Crono lore person, I am so excited to compare the official translation to the fan stuff on Crono Compendium. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT WAS SO GOOD, AAAAAA I LOVE IT WHEN GOOD THINGS FINALLY HAPPEN FOR GAMES PRESERVATION

 

[Schnee117]

Scenes when Lightning McQueen is added to Kingdom Karts

 

[TheMightyP]

Was lowkey hoping they announced Chrono Trigger to SNES online too, but that hasn't happened.

Square is super weird when it comes to rereleasing their old games, so picky choosy.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

So that's it?

No Smash?

My brother is speculating that they're probably gonna give it and FF6 the same treatment Live A Live is getting at some point with Octopath's engine.

Which NGL, that would be genius and explain their sudden interest in Crono stuff again (they recently took down a ROM download from a big ROM site and they're doing a bunch of stuff with Cross).

 

[---]

Technically it's already been preserved. It's just that it's something that was released towards the end of the service for a limited time and you have to be as lucky as hell to locate a copy that has survived with the save data still in tact on a random unmarked Nintendo Power download cart.

Not sure if I'd call it a holy grail, maybe a half step or two below, but definitely rarer than any of the non-competition carts of the NA SNES library.

Maybe other satellaview stuff could get dumped somewhere, for curiosity's sake.

Maybe someday. I know there are a still a couple Kirby games that are still lost from the service. Mostly small mini-games, but games nonetheless.

 

[Guynamednelson]

I've played the F-Zero Satellaview games. While it might be cool to get your hands on something rare, most of the tracks are literally just ones from the original game, some with slight edits.

Can Square do that with their other franchises?

The only classic bit RPGs they got on Switch are the first three Dragon Quests and they're the ****ty mobile ports.

Edit: Just port them. Idk why the FF Pixel Remasters are PC exclusive

"Not interested" in #ChocoboGP? Let's change that!

I am legally required to play Chocobo Grand Prix now.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

With Xenoblade 3 confirmed. We have an obvious frontrunner for Smash 6.

Poor Rex. Never got his chance to be playable in Smash...

 

[Wademan94]

I just realized, is Kirby essentially Upgrade from Ben 10 with the new gimmick?

 

[Hadokeyblade]

Well it would be pretty neat to play the one Zelda game thats a remake of the original game but with SNES graphics.
It would also be kinda neat to play Famicom Detective Club 3, since we have the first 2 on Switch, even if i assume it's shorter than those lol

 

[TheMightyP]

Btw, Glaceon is a fox

 

[Wademan94]

They’re ALL foxes

No, Live A Live is different from the Pixel Remasters: It's a full on remake in Octopath's engine with the 2.5D look. Trigger would actually look amazing in it, as the sprites hold up incredibly well, and it would pair super great with the effects Octopath's engine is capable of.

Trigger has had so many ports at this point that I think it'd be a way of making it a bit more interesting.

 

[Guynamednelson]

Btw, Glaceon is a fox

They’re ALL foxes

Eevee was based on its creator spotting an animal in the forest he couldn't tell was a dog or cat.

So the answer to whether Eevee or its evolutions are felines or canines is...Yes.

 

[MooMew64]

Btw, Glaceon is a fox

They’re ALL foxes

Then why do they all act kinda like cats.

And everyone draws them like cats.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

So y'all enjoyed the direct?

Seems I only had gotten two predictions. Splatoon 3 and Xenoblade 3.

Sad no new Donkey Kong game tho.

 

[TheMightyP]

Because Foxes are dogs with cat software.

What took them so long?

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Looking at the artstyle of Splatoon. I just gives me DreamWorks vibes. If Splatoon were to ever get an animated film adaption I think DreamWorks is the one to go.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Dude why are they still saying "summer"

Is it because they need to string us along until an innevitable Sploon Direct

 

[Lamperouge]

Lamperouge , @Hydreigonfan01 how are you feeling? I've been analyzing the Xenoblade 3 trailer and a lot of what I see looks very familiar. I've been seeing theories that this new world is the worlds from 1 and 2 colliding which makes sense, especially with the rumors and Takahashi's comments about Future Connected being a sign of the future.

I could make out bits of what I believe to be Mechonis and Uraya at the end of the trailer. Definitely interested to find out how the two worlds were connected and how these characters might relate to each other, especially the new Gormotti party member and the Vandham lookalike.

Speaking of characters, I'm really digging their designs (especially the protagonist) and the game's overall visual style is kind of a hybrid of XC1 and XC2. It looks really nice.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Know what you may be right

 

[Ivander]

Just curious
What are AT LEAST 2 tracks y'all want in the new MK DLC pack?

I personally would like to see DS Airship Fortress and Wii DK Summit

Aside from Double Dash, DS and 7's Rainbow Roads, some I would like to see are one of the Wuhu Island tracks and Wario Shipyard from Mario Kart 7, Maple Treeway from Wii, Waluigi Pinball from DS and Dino Dino Jungle from Double Dash.

I do wonder why they abandoned the X saga. That’s a shame man Xenoblade X was such a good game and the world itself is somewhat more intriguing than the other games in some respects.

I hope maybe it's because they want to wait until a stronger system so that they can actually add some of the stuff they wanted to put in the original for a remake or whatnot. That said, I do hope Xenoblade X doesn't get forgotten and comes back eventually, cause I did enjoy Xenoblade X alot.

Anyway....
