Well of course he is. He loves games and grew up wanting to make games after playing good quality games.... which undeniably would have inluded super Mario. This is surely a given. but we should obviously listen to a naughty dog developer give credence to a developer way above their standing like it validates what Nintendo do?
Just when I thought the world wasn’t screwed up enough. This is like listening to David Haye saying he thought Mike Tyson gave a good effort in the 80’s

I had to pay £16.82 in customs to to go and pick this game up. Absolutely ridiculous. £8 of that isn’t even import, it’s a handling fee because the customs wasn’t paid up front. I never get this when I buy from limited run games in the US.

This is awesome!!

I’m constantly baffled why football is referred to the beautiful game. It is dull, overly long, slow, boring and played predominantly by wimps.

Jesus I hate EA. If they can’t even be arsed with doing FIFA properly there is zero chance of seeing NHL or madden

NHL. That is all

No ****ing way? This is awesome!

These guys should port the original arcade versions of:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
The Simpsons
Lucky and Wild
Rad Racer

Sony and Microsoft would say that. Their consoles are ridiculous as you need the same hard drive space for every game whether you have the disc or not. Every game needs installing off the disc with disc reduced to a mere boot tool. Game carts are the game and therefore don’t need masses of expensive system storage to play. This is and always will be the massive benefit of cartridges. That and loading times still makes Sony and Microsoft look a joke.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Has to type this as Nintendolife don’t like one word posts, so enjoy this, but appreciate the first word more, that’s my sentiment)

I still really want Namco to port Splatterhouse (2010). Awful but actually awesome splatter fest that was genuinely funny. Releasing it as a collection with the original trilogy on Switch would be the ultimate

Well this is boring and was always gonna be disappointing if it was anything short of Dreamcast2!!!!!

@Dakotastomp sonic X was also very very bad. Sonic Boom is by far and eat the worst iteration of sonic I’ve ever seen though.

I remember buying the game, issue 1 of the comic and then sitting down my first born son, ready to welcome the new age of sonic for me and introduce him to one of my childhood hero’s and awaiting the awesome avalanche of support sonic was now getting. Episode 1 finished... we both took off our sonic t-shirts with teary eyes and thought “what the **** was that!?” Sega had ruined sonic yet again.They couldn’t kill this abomination fast enough for me.

Well thank god for that.

Well what I instantly heard was Shinobi IV: Revenge of the Ninja Master. Two projects beside these would be good, but this company need to deliver on the other best ever game Sega forgot to make a sequel to since the mid 90’s.

Beyond Shinobi and streets of rage I’m not sure what this company’s approach can bring to the table with a Sega IP. Although they did do wonder boy, so seeing them make a long awaited sequel to Beyond Oasis would be incredible and also Golden Axe IV, especially if it as satisfyingly visceral as streets of rage 4 is.

The Nintendo64 fundamentally a far superior console on every single level compared to the Saturn and PS1. That fact alone was reason enough surely?

I was waiting for the next 2K sports for a long time. NHL2K or NFL2K?..... Golf2K....? Jesus.

Absolutely awesome

I hope to god they get the original Japanese cast back and the Japanese option is available over here. The English cast were absolutely bloody awful and made the game unbearable. Switch back to Japanese, all of a sudden, it’s awesome again

@carlos82
Calling them out?? 😂
For a showdown? 😂
On the streets? 😂

Who were you calling out? I didn’t read anyone message slagging off the entirety of capcom’s intellectual property.

@carlos82 are you even aware that you’re typing??

Bless. You’re and arguer for arguments sake. Street fighter games have been fundamentally, almost literally, the same game every iteration, spanning some 20 plus iterations. FIFA is almost literally the same game every year.
Animal crossing is fundamentally the same game, as is every single IP ever created. But typically they have advancements that make the next iteration worth your while. Games such as animal crossing tick that box.
What is the vague and pointless point you think you’re making?

@link3710 I’m well aware they funded it. I’m saying that was a stupid move by Capcom.

@carlos82 I’m afraid new horizons as an evolution over its predecessors in every single measurable way. We are only on the 4th iteration in nearly 20 years? And this is the first version that has provided full HD visuals and fully global communication. Have you played any animal crossing games?

I’ve got both of these on PsOne, Dreamcast and N64. (Dreamcast was best).

I would only have bought a modern release of them as a physical release on Switch to add to my collection and digital to play on the go. Skipping the Switch? I’m skipping you.

It better have only been turned down because they have guard crush lined up to make Shinobi IV: Revenge of the Ninja Master.
Shinobi III has and will eternally be in my top ten games of all time. Sega FINALLY handing over progress on a true sequel and producing something as awesome and honouring as Streets of Rage 4 would be an incredible move.

@mesome713 street fighter V is literally the best fighting game ever made and best street fighter game. If you think they have met evolved, did you stop playing at street fighter 4, III, 2 Turbo??

Restricting the latest street fighter instalment to PS4 alone was a stupid move and severely hindered its sales. Releasing it as a complete cross platform competitive title on PS4, PC, XBox and Switch would have made a lot more money, increased its profile and gathered even more interest for the global competition community the game has developed.

@HXLXIII nope. If I was describing CoD, I’d use 1 word and 1 word alone. And I can’t type it here.
Star Wars has been garbage for a long time. It’s turned into the Hollywood youth playing on their jaded dads star power. Like Paris Hilton did off of her Dad’s global hotel chain, like Nicole Richie did of Lionel. Just utter vacuous nonsense playing on the names of their forefathers. Last three films in particular.
Empire was awesome. Everything else after.... 😒
Except Mandalorian which I was massively surprised and impressed with.

@Krambo42 should watch them closer. It’s true.
They just aren’t films after Empire, they’re just wide show attraction set piece candy covered garbage. The latest three are the worst and being nothing to the story except recycling the original three. Absolutely awful.

Did anybody else notice that Star Wars films got incrementally worse after Empire?
Most of these films are literal dog dirt and badly edited, overly long, boring and pointless.
I watch every single one with a little less hope that’s gonna be good every time. I loved Star Wars as a kid and now; now it’s just dire.

NHL 21 please. We haven’t had NHL in a Nintendo platform for 15 years since NHL 06 and I’m tired of playing it on XBox One with the crap controller. I want to be able to play it anywhere on the console with the best controller ever made. And not a watered down bag of rubbish, one with all modes, in full, including HUT and CHEL and every other mode.

Never mind the Switch. WE need these games. We haven’t had a sequel to the awesome Excitebike since the N64, we haven’t had a good F-Zero sequel since the N64 (X is way better than GX, don’t argue) and we haven’t had a sequel to 1080 since the GameCube. Absolutely awesome Nintendo IPs just languishing. All different types of racer and all equally amazing.

Street fighter V and only street fighter V on switch. ASAP please

@Zenszulu that was nearly 10 years ago and EAs products have gotten worse, now would be a very opportune time for somebody to release a competing brand. The online community and customer base for EA sports is one of constant negativity and loss of confidence in EA to develop a quality product anymore.

@rdm22 pseudo adult? Are you not an actual adult?

It is somewhere close to 99.99999% likely to never happen that Sega will ever release a console again. But should the day ever arrive that the Sega “fill awesome name here” should ever launch along with launch titles like:

Virtua Fighter 6
Street of Rage 4
Panzer Dragoon Drei
Golden Axe
Sonic the Hedgehog 5
Sega Rally 3
Virtua Tennis
Beach Spikers 2 (yes this deserves a sequel)
Shinobi IV Revenge of the Ninja Master
Yakuza
Jet Set Radio
Football Manager

I’m also sick of EA Sports and actually rated the Sega Sports line in the 90’s, particularly NHL 2K, NBA 2K, World Series Baseball and NFL 2K. I’d love a direct competitor to give us an alternate option for all sports instead of being monopolised by EA year in year out and the garbage the drop out.

Then THAT is a console I’d definitely buy

I still would welcome and day one bit a new Sega console. It would be awesome

I think it looks as god awful as every other controller design Sony have ever slipped out. And reliably it’s gotten a degree worse with every iteration. PS4 was my last ever Playstation and this just adds rhyme to reason.

YES commandos 2!!! I’ve wanted the commandos games and Gangsters to get porter for switches for ages now. This is 1 out of 3.

Sold out already!?

He doesn’t see the greatest console ever made as competition?...... made by the biggest video game company in history?....... 😂.

To be fair he’s right. What Nintendo have done is taken the Gameboy and given it steroids whilst sat in a nuclear grow bag and given birth to single greatest piece of gaming hardware ever conceived.

You still “need” a hardwired home gaming unit, as if you look deep down and honestly, we are all graphics to some extent. But truth be told, everyone needs a Switch as that is the future of actual gaming.

I’d like to see the SNES packages.

Mickey Mouse in Magical Quest.
Goof Troop
Jungle Book

Or all three Super Star Wars games just in time for rise of Skywalker and Christmas

@GuruOfGreatness you’re welcome

@GuruOfGreatness
Which I agree with in essence, but it’s a completely different point,

A game being delayed because it hasn’t passed quality control or the developer delaying the game to make sure it is to a certain quality always results in a better version of that game. As per this article on why Doom is being delayed.

An arbitrary total being delayed because it was stuck in a decade long law case is a completely different version of a delay. Which a delay relative and not to a handful of games and completely different to this point in case.

I get it was being sarcastic, but was an irrelevant point.

@GuruOfGreatness

Lol.

Mine was also written in sarcastic jest. Sarcasm doesn’t really translate in text though obviously.

But objectively, nothing you said actually agreed with my original comment or anything after. Your comment that what I said didn’t apply to two abysmal games. A tangent and irrelevant point, (sarcastic comment).

The fact I’ve “taken the trouble” to comment on something from 30 days ago was actually no trouble as I only ready your comment for the first time, 5 minutes before I responded today. I hardly ever comment on here.

@GuruOfGreatness it you’re just being needlessly argumentative for no reason and clearly no guru.

Duke Nukem Forever wasn’t delayed for 14 years to improve the programming and build like these discussed with Doom Eternal. Duke Nukem Forever took 14 years as it went through several publishers and numerous law suits. Not one delay was “ we’re nearly there but need another 3-6 months to tighten up” it was all publishers and developers suing each other over contractual matters. Not a single one in the interest of the games quality.

@GuruOfGreatness it quite clearly did apply to both these games, they were rushed out as were dreadful.

Superman 64 is another case all together as that is officially be of the worst games ever made in history and is due to every conceivable reason.when it was released is irrelevant. It was always gonna be dog dirt

A ban is a ban. Why should anyone get preferential treatment? Just “some” kid considered against a “pro” kid? Loser. Ninja talks out of his ass and is a jumped Up idiot

YES!! hope it’s the original uncut version

Not sad at all. This happened loads in the 90’s and I was glad every time it did as it always meant what followed was the best that game could have been as developers couldn’t rely on DLC and patch updates. This is how a developer should make a game. Get it 100% on day one then DKC and updates are purely content based and not reactive maintenance patches. EA would do well to learn from this ethos. It’s not like they’ve been going for 3 decades or anything!
