WW, F-zero GX, SCII were all amazing games. Really looking forward to playing them again 20 years later

It is a little bit funny that the most exciting news about Switch 2 is that GameCube is coming to it.

[–] ladel@feddit.uk 0 points 1 year ago

That's exactly my feeling lol

Never played Wind Waker so that would be nice. Given the insane new prices i wonder if they adjust their online prices as well ... because then i would lose interest quickly ...

I can finally play Wind Waker!

F-Zero GX apparently has a campaign so won't mind giving it a try too.

Wind Waker is a fun one. I think the Wii U remaster is a better way to play it these days, but they didn't port it to the Switch :(

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It is possible that we will also get a remake, but I think if there was a remake we would have gotten that before the NSO version, kinda like Link's Awakening.

[–] picandocodigo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's a shame that there's an improved HD version stuck on the Wii U now. This and Twilight HD both. But they've been rumored to be coming to the Switch for ages, so maybe they'll come to Switch || Switch 2 eventually.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Maybe... but you never know with Nintendo. There were rumours of Metroid Prime 2 and 3 remasters too, but it seems more and more unlikely now.

[–] Sonemonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

The minute Burnout and/or it's sequels become playable, I will spend any amount of money to play them

[–] crackgammon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Do we know if the controller's gonna have the proper analog triggers?

[–] Custard@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Was really hoping for ww / tp remasters. Instead we're just getting the old versions instead lol
