I've definitely overhyped myself for this. Nothing interesting for me in the first 9 minutes, but holding out hope for a Metroid Prime 2+3 Remaster.

Excited for Mario RPG and Pikmin. Fae Farms looks similar game concept to Stardew Valley to me.

SwitchUp Youtube channel did a review and it's very addicting, according to them.

Definitely similar to Stardew in terms of storyline/objective. Love the freedom it looks like you'll have and the menus look reverse contrasted too! The fast travel map having where the characters are is so needed sometimes especially if there are characters that move constantly.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder looks like just the breath of fresh air the 2D Platformer Mario games desperately need. While I enjoyed the "New Super Mario Bros." games, there's no denying they've gotten very stale and if you've played one you've basically played them all. This looks entirely unique and different.

Oh my God, I'm beyond HYPED for the Arkham Trilogy, I've always wanted to have them on the switch, it's going right to my wishlist !!

If you have never played them, they are great games. One of the best super-hero game series, which raised the bar for all the games that follow, even then I would say only Insomniac's Spider-man has come close to it, but that's a very different game.

I just hope they are good ports!

I did play them and I absolutely adore this franchise, I'm just so excited to know I can have them in portable mode down the line.

A bit disappointed by the absence of Origins though.

Wow! This is a very well put together thread! Great work!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks. Appreciated. 😀

Mythforce looks like a barrel of fun. I hope they don't shy away from an occasional goofy 'push this button next' sequence when it's time for the action to get even more ludicrous.
