The Outerhaven writes: The Nintendo Switch has had plenty of big hits, but perhaps to help its successor, some of its "lesser hits" could get ported with some "upgrades."

Yea so the fanboys can pay 70 bucks for ports this time around. As if if wasn't bad enough with all the Wii U ports and 3DS ports that have taken up most of Ninty's releases these last few years. We should be pushing for backwards compatibility instead of giving them the idea that they can charge full price AGAIN for games already bought.

The sad realization about Nintendo is they don't care about BC. Look at what've done to pretty much every console. Look at the SNES Mini. Look at Nintendo Switch Online. They do what they want, regardless of what the people have asked.

The hope is the next console supports BC, but let's look at Nintendo's track history. It sucks, it does, but sadly, that' Nintendo.

Wii games were BC with Gamecube games, GBA were BC with GAmeboy games, DS were BC with GBA and 3ds were BC with DS games so yeah those ad a good track record.

The Switch doesn't have BC support with anything. The SNES didn't have BC with the NES. The N64 didn't have BC with the SNES. The Gamecube didn't have BC with the N64.

Tit for a tat.

The likes of Pilotwings, 1080 Snowboarding, Stunt Race FX, F-Zero and Wave Race especially have all been canned by Nintendo. The Switch saw a number of Wii U ports, but not even Splatoon and Mario Maker made the cut, maybe a few others. Seems Nintendo likes to bang the same drum these days.

DefaultComment12d ago

Those games didnt made the cut cause they made theoir respective sequels on the Switch, Mario Maker 2, Splatoon 2 and 3 so why bother porting those when they already had their sequels?

D0nkeyBoi12d ago

No more ports or remakes of recently released stuff. Enough is enough. Just make Switch 2 be backwards compatible with maybe some boosts on older games using the improved iGPU/cpu.

adamwparker12d ago

Ported Switch games? Uuuuh, no. Not subscribing to that nonsense.

Make the device backward compatible!

BlaqMagiq112d ago

If the Switch 2 is BC then this is not necessary.

"Tales Of Kenzera: ZAU" Review \\ paulsemel

Though it's a fairly typical side-scrolling action game, it's also fairly fun.

i want to play a game that's unfairly fun

They have those; they're called Dead Souls.

I do like this game too but it needs more polish. Visually it's very hit and miss and the combat could be better, the very tanky shielded enemies get quite annoying and there's really not a lot of enemy variety either.

Ikki Unite review (Switch) - Games Asylum

Games Asylum: "Since their rebirth a few years ago, Sunsoft has made good on bringing their ‘80s and ‘90s hits to a new generation. At least, all of those without licenses attached. In addition to revivals of cult titles Ufouria, Trip World and Mr. Gimmick, the once prolific publisher has also seen fit to bring back one of the earliest Famicom games – one famous for all the wrong reasons. Ikki was a notoriously bad top-down shooter involving humble farmers revolting in a feudal Japan setting, frequently mocked by critics for its unfair gameplay and terrible music. Think along the lines of the Japanese equivalent of Fester’s Quest…which was also by Sunsoft. Oh."
