      @@ninmarbob Sounds like a dumb idea to name it with that with Wind Waker HD, but this is Nintendo we're talking about, and they do dumb ideas no one wanted yet for the most part, they sell millions. Paper Mario Origami King for example gets heavily hated by the fans from back in the first two Paper Mario games, yet it sold so many copies of it. Because of that, I think Nintendo might rerelease Starfox Guard, which nobody wanted as everyone hates Slippy. A good example of his uselessness is in Starfox 64, where not even 5 minutes into the first level, he's stuck under enemy fire and you need to rescue him due to his terrible combat piloting. All he was good for in Starfox 64 was showing you the boss enemy's healthbar, which you don't need to see to be able to win. But yeah, I hope Wind Waker gets rereleased on Switch in some form, as I never owned the game (either version in fact), and only borrowed it from my best friend at the time for a very brief time. I got stuck at Forsaken Fortress, which me as a kid did not understand how to clear it when I have no sword.

      I think it is the latter.
      A “new” Xenoblade game every year on the Switch has practically become an expected thing at this point, so chucking out Xenoblade X again to either satiate the fanbase until a Xenoblade 3 and/or get fans ready for a Xenoblade X2 would be the expected move.

    I would really love to play Twilight Princess again, and it would be nice to finally have the opportunity to play Wind Waker. I played Phantom Hourglass and loved it, but couldn't play Wind Waker because I never owned a Gamecube.

    The Mario Advance 4 version on Wii U had basically a whole hidden game in the E-Card levels and IMHO is the rarest gem now as it must have been downloaded before the eshop shut down. (I think 4....the SMB3 one)

      But they also said that in 2017 or 2018. Things changed a lot from back then. Considering Xenoblade 2 just surpassed 2M units worldwide and Xenoblade DE is selling pretty well, I think this may have changed.

    • @jameskeen3321
      @jameskeen3321 Před 3 lety +5

      Specifically the testing part because of how large the game. Xenoblade is slowly moving up the ladder of most popular jrpgs so at some point the port cost can be justified but who knows when

      a lot of people really just don't notice it... also if your playing it on specific hardware meant for the time were 720p is all that it also looks better. kind of like how super nintendo games look really pixelated on hd tvs but on the old crt tv's they don't...

    • @strykah92
      @strykah92 Před 3 lety

      Art style and presentation can do a lot to hide technical shortcomings. Although I’d argue 720p is still a serviceable resolution for Wii U/PS3/360 games regardless.

      I'm not sure if I'd like the game on the Wii U itself, but I've really enjoyed emulating it on PC (with both windows displayed on one screen, making it a lot easier to glance between the two). The gyro aim is a very cool and useful feature, and it helps make combat so much better in All-Range Mode.

      @@hahasamian8010 Yeah, I feel like that was the big limiter on intuitiveness for the WiiU, the fact that by their very nature the two screens couldn't be locked in your view like with the DS systems. Just too many variables for the human brain to get used to in casual play.

      Same. I keep feeling that the same game, retooled for single-screen play, would be seen as an excellent StarFox game and one that would top Starfox 64 easily. It was such an expansive game, with which rarely people played it long enough to unlock the dimensional gate stuff. For an arcade-style space romp, it was a pretty large game.
