Nostalgia is a huge marketing tool. Hollywood is the worst offender at the moment, but gaming isn’t far behind. Nintendo has cashed in on the same recognizable franchises for decades now, yet ignores Pilotwings. Kirby, Yoshi and even Bomberman get new games, but a franchise that helped launch both the SNES and N64 has been left behind.
NoobFeed editor Asura Kagawa writes - Those who aren't into unusual indie games probably won't enjoy Hauntii. Although it falls short in executing each genre it aims to combine, it does provide a relaxing experience that might be enjoyable for short periods. It is a gratifying experience to participate in activities such as collecting stars and making constellations, and you won't regret entering Hauntii's realm or solving riddles to earn more stars.
Mortal Kombat 1 has made a variety of changes to the franchise, and the game's new approach to Fatalities is an interesting divergence.
"The Dundee-based (the UK) indie games publisher Little Nook and indie games developer Hyper Luminal Games, today announced with great happiness and thrill that their heart-tugging narrative-adventure “Pine Hearts“, is now available for PC (via Steam) and the Nintendo Switch (via the Nintendo Eshop)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Why did you mention Bomberman like Nintendo owns the IP?
Pilotwings was my vietnam. Such a terrible game! Can't believe people ask for a remake.
IF we talk about N64 games to be remade - What about Extreme G?
Weird, I was nostalging (new word?) to this game last night listening to Pilot Wings 64 OST - Birdman. Always loved that song.
That, Wave Race and F-Zero need a come back.
I always hoped they would add the N64 island to 3ds version as a bonus or DLC but never happened ;(
