I'll just wait for the next gen port, and then wait some more for the price to drop off at Amazon or Walmart. Assuming Nintendo's next gen system isn't digital-only.

I think they realize they're going to re-release this on their next console for $70 anyway, so why not start now?

Good point.  Well made.

It's Forwards Compatible pricing parity.

I miss the WiiU days, when Nintendo's 1st party games would launch at €40.  Damn all you other people who helped make the Switch a succes!

Definitely a good possibility there.

Advance wars, pikmin, metroid prime, birdo, nice looking bayonetta whateveritis.

A good direct.

Zelda was a very short peek. Seems like Ganon is lending Link his strength to take on an otherworldy foe?

Pretty solid Direct. Finally getting Metroid Prime Remastered and this month no less. Game Boy and Game Boy Advance games hitting Switch Online is nice.

Pikmin 4 looks quite good.

Oh my god, another Samba de Amigo?? Those games are ableist and discriminate against people without rhythm. That said, hats off to Sega for giving the series another go.

WTF??? A licensed wannabe Castlevania? Fuck off Konami.

Giving another go to Ghost Trick? Hey, why not?

DecaPolice actually looks pretty good. Weird as fuck, but sort of has a batshit crazy vibe like TWENTY.

Bayonetta Origins? ...they take one of the best pure action games and turned it into this??

Disney Illusion Island looks like it could be a solid couch co-op platformer.

Almost got excited for a new Katamari Damacy. A remaster of the sequel is okay though. The extra features look bleh, but I kind of hoping that at some point they'll bundle the two games together.

Sea of Stars is supposed to be a great throwback RPG with a lot of Chrono Trigger influence, right?

Oh cool, new Etrian Odyssey remakes. Nice.

Kirby's Return to Dreamland was solid on the Wii. Pretty much like any Kirby game, safe but fun.

Wow Gameboy games.....wow.... They're not even offering a Super Gameboy option for the older games?? I guess it's nice they're at least offering the filters.

Oooooh the looked the GBA games behind the expansion pak. Ha!

Oh finally remastering Prime. Maybe I'll finally play it.... probably not. Smart to release the digital version early.

Oh wow, Batman Kaitos. I always said I want to say this, but every time I see that it's actually a card game, I just lose interest.

New Fantasy Life? I hope Level 5 figured out a way to keep the game interesting after 10 hours. I kind of liked the original, but it got old quick.

A new Layton is always a good thing.... Well sometimes it is. Not the last couple ones.

You know what? I like Power Pro Baseball.

And Zelda. Hey it looks like Hyrule has seen better days, again.

At least it’s just Tears of the Kingdom. All the other games like Pikmin 4, Octopath Traveler II, etc. are still the previous price. Although it kind of seems worse that they are taking advantage of the Zelda brand to increase the price.

I'm spoiled by PS sales; so many games drop below $20 in a year or less; and they're far more graphically advanced games too. *hugs PS5*
