Unrelated but I preordered Penny's Big Break Away and Yakuza Kiwami from LRG and they've delayed the delivery 3 times

Just waffle from Mr. Bowser. Business language that doesn't mean anything. To me, this is just a way to push customers to digital and to kill the resale market. He also starts with "immediate future", meaning in the near future they'd like to stop continuing physical cards.

Obligatory Banjo Kazooie post

Chibi finally gets his chance

I am once again screaming into the void but this is a great chance to give Chibi-Robo what he deserves. It would be great to get the Sonic Adventure ports on here as well, among other games of course.

Not going to bother. I love BK and i backed Yooka on kickstarter. I appreciate they've taken on feedback but I'm not paying double for finally what looks like a more finished product. I always felt like it just didn't scratch the same itch either, I don't know if it was the art style, character designs, the fact it's a unity game, who knows? Something felt off. Maybe the lack of Gregg Mayles.

I still don't get how I can preorder this physically in the UK

The library and form factor (plus the pro controller) do it for me. Sometimes I'm annoyed by the experience, or lack of previous features (Virtual Console, Street Pass, Themes, the Wii U menu to view games) but overall it's one of the best things Nintendo has put out. They really hit a home run, and then kept the success going for 8 years.

I wonder if we'll get Mega Feraligatr. Also the new battle style is something I've always hoped they'd implement.

Pretty glad i didn't end up getting a ticket now. I went in 2022 and the London themed merch was great. This isn't bad, it's just a bit boring

How can i get my hands or feet on these?

How do you preorder in the UK?

$112 for a vinyl (before taxes and shipping). I get this is somewhat of a niche product (although the game sold well), but come on. I hate getting milked as a retro game fan.

This is great, I'd like to see more of this. I hate seeing really cool stuff like this locked away from late-comers.

I wonder how Nintendo is feeling about all of these companies revealing their console?

I only buy physical. Times are hard though and I don't have as much cash as I'd like to buy games.

Not really sure this is enough for me to rush out and get one, unless they go crazy with the software. Bring back 3DS features like streetpass and themes, add Wii and GC to the virtual consoles (I can't believe they haven't utilized the Joycons for Wii emulation. I thought they worked great for the Mario Galaxy port), and add more native communication features to bring Switch online more in line with other online services. Nobody wants to use the phone app to talk with friends, and maybe add in achievements that tie into platinum points or something like that.

Love to see this. No harm in giving credit where it's due.

@N00BiSH Creatures (Inc.) Comforts

I am in utter disbelief lol. This was the last thing I expected. Really looking forward to this

Banjo Kazooie reveal and the Sora reveal are 2 top moments for me. Sephiroth was a big WTF lol

Always the best decision

@PokemonDMG On that theme, I think it would be cool if Nintendo switched up these series in that way. Paper Luigi, Wario and Waluigi, Yoshi Microgames etc.

Anyone know if this is getting a physical

I've been waiting on the UK preorder

Arguably one of the biggest ever fumblings of a bag. Imagine A unified Playstation/Nintendo PS1N64, PS2GC, PS3WII etc. And the combined library of the 2, or having Nintendo made games at Playstation specs.

This is getting really unfair. I really wanted the N64 and GC keychains too. They've shipped gacha machines to the west for decades, why keep us out now?

@Zaruboggan You're lucky you have a copy. I lost mine years ago

Ribbit King and Chibi Robo from GameCube should be brought back from the dead

This is a new low for milking BK fans. This is how far they'll go all while not signing off on a new game or remaster. I love BK and the mumbo transformations but give me a break.

Still cracking on with Banjo Tooie. Thrilled we are getting more Rare on the NSO, may it continue.

Are they bringing the other items from the Gold and Silver anniversary set to the west?

The launch version and subsequent models much better hit the overall clean aesthetic Nintendo had during the late 00's

Physical release? Very pleased to see this classic on switch

One of the all-time greats. The games lineup was incredible, backwards compatibility with the GBA, wireless local and wifi play, microphone, touch screen, innovative design etc. The best Pokemon games are on it too.

I will get one but based on the leaks I don't see how it's that different from the switch. I'm hoping Nintendo will surprise me like they always do, unless this will be an upgrade like the Gameboy to the Gameboy Color

Any news on when this might be put on Amazon JP?

I'd buy most of this. It's really annoying the stuff I would actually buy as a longtime fan is only available in the Center in Japan. I don't want most of the stuff they have internationally, I like the retro stuff.

Obligatory "Remake BK, release Diddy Kong Racing, port Rare Replay for switch" post

Good chance I'll get this. I loved Chibi-Robo. I wish this game had a more expressive art style but it looks great nonetheless.

Please stop doing this Sega. They make some reference to old remakes a couple times a year. They've definitely delivered but refuse to directly acknowledge SA series despite it being the elephant in the room.

What a legacy. I wish him the best in the future

Japan's one reminds me of the SA2 logo

Did he speedrun the dark story of SA2? I'm praying we get some of the classic lines like "You're not even good enough to be my fake-"

Glorious way to start the weekend. Hopefully a sign of more to come

I backed the original on Kickstarter since BK is one of my favourites and I regret it to be honest. I didn't back Psychonauts 2 and I wish I had done instead. I was really disappointed by Yooka Laylee and haven't come close to finishing it. I don't really know how to feel about this remastering

Chibi-Robo, Sonic Adventure 2, and the Snowboard Kids series are my most wanted and unfortunately seem least likely.

Pretty funny considering their head of marketing told an audience recently that "nobody cares about Banjo Kazooie". They're still happy to milk us for 400 dollar statues and whatever else they can slap the characters on to.

@JohnnyMind I think I remember hearing something that they had to bump it up because of the blood in the Lord Woo Fak Fak boss battle actually

Did anyone else see this has a T for Teen rating?
