The Orville Season 4 Reportedly Set to Begin Production In Early 2025: https://comicbook.com/tv-shows/news/the-orville-season-4-reportedly-set-to-begin-production-in-early-2025/

I love Marvel Vs. Capcom and I didn’t really play the second one much. This is a day one purchase for me on the Switch!

I would hope whatever team was behind the new Earthworm Jim would get to keep working on it for real consoles/PC, but probably no…

☝️ This. Their cartridges are mostly retro compilations from classic arcade companies and 8/16 bit home computers and such,

The article poising this as an analogue competitor seems naive.

If you upload a video to YouTube, it has to have a clickbait title 😒

Yeah, I hate that Analogue releases are limited. If you miss the window, you either missed it forever or are willing to pay obscene prices on eBay 😞

As the video says, it doesn’t provide all the functionality that the Analogue Pocket has, but it’s a very good alternative for a decent price!

Ooft, that sucks, glad I could help 😁 I think I had to resuscribe back when this happened. This is such a great channel, and they’ve been doing amazing work recently!

So fun! One of the best Game Cube games!

Last weekend we wanted to check out Mortal Kombat 1 again and have some fights, but it needed a massive 1 hour+ update. So we ended up playing MK 11 instead. We did play MK 1 later, and though there seem to be some improvements, this game still sucks on the Switch! I’m almost hoping for a version for whatever the next Nintendo console is, hopefully it’ll be more optimized and it’s more powerful hardware. I tried playing the story campaign and even the video freezes every now and then. Right now I wouldn’t suggest anyone to get Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch…

I’m playing Trip World DX since I got the physical version from Limited Run this week. I’ll probably finish it this weekend, it’s a fairly short game.

I’ve also been playing Donkey Kong Country again, once I finish it I’ll continue with the two other SNES ones. I started playing Donkey Kong Land on the Game Boy before that. But although it’s an amazing port, I don’t think I can stand it to the end 😅

Oh wow, this is amazing 🤣 ¡Gracias! I feel like I need to share this now… https://youtube.com/watch?v=yNCgpaMlOcs

¿Qué?

We talked a bit about this in a previous thread. The Switch has a massive user base, and the game is 20 years old, so there’ll be A LOT of people who haven’t played the original. It’ll also appeal to nostalgia for some of the people who played it when it came out. While Nintendo might be saving bigger titles for their next console, they still need to release stuff so people keep buying the Switch in the meantime. And my guess is remakes are cheaper and faster to publish than entirely new games.

Also regarding new content, from the article in the linked thread:

Thankfully, while most of its early levels are virtually identical to the original, the game’s fourth world is entirely new to the Switch version – the first of two new worlds in the remake – and it does introduce some original mechanics.

There’s a demo available, I think I will check it out…

I guess it makes sense for people like me who’ve never played the original. Also there’s lots of people who hadn’t been born when this came out and now own a Switch!

Nintendo need to offer something to keep selling Switches before they announce whatever is next, remakes are probably rather easy/cheap to spit out. I wonder why there haven’t been more Zelda remakes on Switch. Where’s the Oracles series in the Link’s Awakening remake engine? 😭

Personally, having such a healthy backlog, I don’t think I’m going to go for this one just now…

Hopefully there’ll be a Direct next month and these reports will stop 😅 Although I think it was way worse before the Switch and all the NX “leaks” and “reports”.

Yeah but this one some guy from Omdia said the specific stuff about the screen 🤷 The “report” is all over the place so I thought I’d just post it here for discussion 😬

I don’t know what to expect with Nintendo 😅 It’d be cool, because then it would take advantage of any new hardware. But they may do the BotW thing and release it on both? What if they release it as the final Switch game and it’s the most spectacular Switch game ever? I don’t know!!! 😆

/me cries in “Starlink: Battle for Atlas starter pack for Switch” at full price…

And don’t be on fence, get the 3D!

Maybe I will… 🤔
