Super Mario Maker 2's multiplayer is just another example of Nintendo squandering its potential. Why can't it get online interactions right?
Mega Man's Game Boy series slides onto Nintendo Switch Online today!.
This makes me really happy because I own all of the Mega Man collections on Switch, but it always bothered me that they excluded these OG Gameboy titles.
Hopefully they'll add Mega Man Xtreme 1&2 for GBC later on, bc those were also missing from the collections.
5 MegaMan titles at once, now that's some good update, it's time for me to bring out the hopium for a new MegaMan
Maybe this means Mega Man 64 is around the corner, too. Would be a fun addition on top of these.
"To properly celebrate 35 years of the Game Boy™ system, we have to take it back to year one! Game Boy launched in 1989, and with it arrived classic titles such as Baseball, Alleyway™ and the first Super Mario game available on the system, Super Mario Land™. Today, Nintendo Switch Online members can play all three of these original launch titles as the latest additions to the Game Boy – Nintendo Switch Online library. All just in time for the system’s 35th anniversary!" - Nintendo
FINALLY, Super Mario Land. I actually like this one better than SML2, bc it felt so odd and different. I was absolutely blown away in 1989 being able to play Mario for the first time while on car rides!
My parents recently brought some of my retro stuff from the US over to the EU where I currently live. Man, I forgot how tiny and hard to see the OG gameboy was! haha I appreciate revisiting how I originally used to play these, but I do enjoy especially OG Gameboy and Game Boy Advance releases on NSO bc the portable screen lends well to these games for my aging eyes! I could insert complaints about the drip feed of releases, but I still do appreciate these on the Switch especially w my nice 3rd party Nyxi grips that feel like a proper controller.
Oh yeah come on super Mario land. I have no idea why it took Nintendo to bring it's Gameboy launch title to the NSO service.
It's not as good as 2 and it's controls are janky even by the time of its release but it's iconic in its own way and the music is so catchy some.of my favourite Gameboy music was from this game just that opening level song is a classic.
"30 years after its launch, however, Super Metroid for the SNES remains the undisputed king of the franchise in terms of its atmosphere and tone. " - Ollie Reynolds | NintendoLife
Fusion did a great job at it. Really love that horror feel with metroid. I mean you are completely alone on alien planets filled with horrific monsters and toxic environments.
Nintendo are literally the most incompetent company I've ever seen try to attempt online, the OG xbox is vastly superior in online and online features than Nintendo in 2019. what a joke.
At least they are giving us online play period. While I agree it's strange they won't let us play with friends and only strangers, I guess I will take that over no online play period.
Who knows, maybe by the time MM3 comes out they will have figured this whole thing out, lol.
Nintendo now wants people to pay for its incompetent online service
That’s the biggest joke
Just let MS put live on the switch for all online play.
