@Leuke Are you confusing Assault with Adventures? It's easy to do...

I feel like very few people played Assault and it seems like it was quite rare.

The 3DS remake of Star Fox 64 is great... one of the reasons I keep my 3DS around.

@Nontendo_4DS
I was actually unaware that Abyss was ported to Switch, and I never played it co-op on Wii U either.

My guess would be split-screen on the Switch... for $2.99 it's worth a gamble.

If you like Gamepad co-op, make sure you check out Affordable Space Adventures on WiiU if you haven't already.

The N64, Gamecube, and 3DS versions of Mario Golf had WAY more Mushroom Kingdom charm... I like the Switch version for its simplified mechanics, but the courses, environments, music, etc are woefully uninspired.

Air Hockey Puzzles?

Ok, I'm intrigued.

Will the Cowabunga Collection have a code for infinite lives?

@ZZalapski

Golf Club: Wasteland

Heave Ho is so insanely fun... if this is any where near as good, instant buy.

Ninja Hideaway doesn't even currently have a Tour prefix... so this data isn't exactly great.

Mario Golf could use it... and get rid of the Par 3 courses that they gave us.

@Nontendo_4DS

Sequel... the game could still use work, especially the multiplayer.

A Switch version of Art of Balance is long overdue.

I am pretty sure it was inspired by the pro wrestling taunt... and I would bet that it is not in the Switch version.

The trailer video made me much less interested... looks terrible.

@epestus

Bro, we're talking about some new boards, that are remakes from old games, not an additional campaign. And as an example, Mario Golf got DLC within two months of its release... so your arbitrary 6 month time limit means nothing.

The Indiana Jones pinball DLC is also available for Pinball FX3... I'm sure it's awesome, but it's also $14.99...I think I will wait.

When is The Eye of Typhoon?

Mario Kart 8D is the only Mario game I own digitally... it's great to always have it ready, and it's not like physical copies are ever going to be rare.

If you somehow don't have MK8D, this is your chance...

I wouldn't mind if Bowsette made it into the new game.

I am somewhat on the fence about whether or not I am interested in playing this... never been into the Lego games, but this one seems different.

This information regarding potential piles of DLC and micro-transactions makes me MUCH less interested.

I am fully aware that I can simply "just not buy" the DLC, and I won't, but it's existence makes it not my style of game, in general.

I fully expect some DLC for Superstars (no brainer)... I can't believe we haven't had it yet. I hope it is extensive, which would then fully make up for the terrible Super Mario Party (which I traded in for Superstars).

Ultimately, I just want to see Windmillville.

Yes, Arkham City on WiiU is quite good.

Give me the beat boys, and free my soul...

I'll stick with Shantae games.

@andykara2003 Yes, if you are being technical, which the conversation here on NLife is not. But I edited my post for you.

I was using RGB to help eliminate some people's confusion with composite... the component cables are literally coded with Red, Green, and Blue connectors. Which is pretty annoying since the green and blue can look very similar when working behind a TV!

@Dirty0814 Pretty sure some Gamecube games support 480p... not too many, but there is a prompt during boot up if you are using component cables that asks if you want to output 480p and lets you know that your TV may not support progressive signal input.

Also, pretty sure the resolution lines and color information output is still better than the a/v composite when running Gamecube games with proper component output, despite not using the sync signal for progressive scan... should be at least as good as the S-Video output.

@Spider-Kev

Component is far superior to S-Video... among other reasons, it offers progressive scan (sync signal).

In short, composite = 240i, S-Video = 480i, Component = 480p/720p.

I just use my Wii for running Gamecube games via component cables.

@USWITCH64

It's just Superman.

@Nintendzoey

The Murder Trivia games are similar and very good.

Each Jackbox pack usually has one really good game that is universally liked, a couple that depend on if the right type of people are playing, and one or two stinkers.

If you play with the right group of people, it is a great activity.

I hosted many Zoom Meeting Jackbox Parties with friends and family during COVID shut-downs.

Very intriguing game... and a very well-edited trailer video.

NES Remix seems like an easy one and would be perfect for portable play.

It could even be accessible via Online subscription... or purchased as a stand-alone download like the recent DLC.

I was very interested when this game released... seemed like a cool indie experience.

Unfortunately, my wife and I found it to be an absolute slog to get through... we put it down for a while... then picked it back up to finish it, just to do so. It was never enjoyable for us.

I played the first one on Steam... I probably will do that again for the performance increase and since I don't need to play this one on the go.

Anyone interested should check this series out for sure.

Here are a few others:
STARWHAL
The Fall
Abyss
Typoman
Sportsball

@OldManHermit Yes, DuckTales remaster has a boring art style, dialog, and pacing.

We need Disney Afternoon Collection on Switch!

Not exclusive to the 3DS by any means, but Steamworld Dig and Heist work really well on the 3DS with the extra screen.

I think I might stop looking at the weekly release list... and just wait for the monthly Highlights list.

So..... much.... garbage.

Nintendo Life should make a list of well-received 3DS and WiiU eShop games that are not available anywhere else.

If you know someone who is into it... Affordable Space Adventures is a FANTASTIC co-op experience and one the very few games to actually make good use of the WiiU Gamepad and asymmetrical gameplay.

@WhiteTrashGuy Based on my knowledge and this article, you will be able to re-download games you have already purchased beyond the store closure. You just won't be able to make new purchases.

Still a good idea to backup.

I think I will buy a couple Game Gear games on my 3DS just for nostalgia and fun... Maybe Columns and Sonic?

I still have my Game Gear, games, and TV Tuner... but I think the LCD screen went out years ago.

@rushiosan But also Game Pass is $180/year... compared to $30/year for the Switch upgrade.

People really forget the $/month to $/year conversion.

@Astral-Grain

All true... but your original post implies that the the decision equates to paying $25 once or $150 over 5 years for the Mario Kart DLC.

In reality, it is:

$25 for Mario Kart DLC
$150 over 5 years for Mario Kart DLC, N64/Genesis games, Animal Crossing DLC, etc.

Whether or not the Expansion option is worth it to you is a decision to be made, but it's not simply $25 vs $150.

@rjejr @Astral-Grain

Your analyses only work if you assume the SOLE reason for purchasing the Expansion is the Mario Kart DLC... which would be silly.

If someone is already a standard NSO sub, and interested in the N64/Genesis, and the Animal Crossing DLC... the Mario Kart DLC via NSO Expansion becomes a huge value.

I think it's time for Metroid Dread Pinball.

Good to hear... I'm buying it immediately anyway.

I only hope that once all of the DLC is out, there is a MK8 Ultimate physical release that includes all 96 tracks on the cart.

Mario Party DLC?

I would much prefer something closer to NFL Blitz on the Switch... but without the complete disregard for rules. The most recent version from 2012 on PS3 is super fun.

Widescreen Tecmo Bowl for $3... Absolutely.

I wonder if my Switch NES controllers will work?

@SepticLemon Call it what you want...

Question stands... does this device address the potential bricking issue when providing video and pulling video using the Switch USB-C port?
