I'm not one of them, but I think some Castlevania fans might feel differently. And even some Mario Bros. fans.

Generally I concur with you, however.

Pretty authentic then...

Brian, who also adores the original (as you'll have heard on our podcast about it), is absolutely beside himself about the prospect of the remake.

Good to hear!

Square Enix has fairly thoroughly fallen out with Xbox.

The Colin McRae games are on the list, as are a number of NFS games (but there are so many with such different focus I think a single show wouldn't be adequate).

An F1 'series' show would be fascinating, but it certainly couldn't involve me. I'll find out if we have any fans among the crew though.

Prodeus and the Pushmo series are on the list already (though the latter now being unavailable to buy makes that one less likely).

I'll add the others though!

I haven't noticed any change... I'll ask Jay if he's done anything. Perhaps it's just a bb update...

"I'd almost dismissed this cart as an inessential pack-in with the console"

WTF! It's Irem!

Thank you.

Yes, although the idea of a bulletin board style forum feels thoroughly old-fashioned in some ways, it remains our favoured way to house community discourse.

Stureeeeet Fightaaaaa!!!

Same, just been through all my games tweaking them as such.


Just bear in mind if you take the controls off A and B then the TATE mode will be missing functions...

Edit controls (beta) has now been added via firmware by the way, Alex.

I have one and it's lovely. Toaplan 1 and 2 are my top carts at the moment.

RE4 wasn't even close to the first game to feature adaptive difficulty (listen to our Gradius (1985) series show for a much earlier - though still at least 10 years on from the first - example), but RE4 sure did it elegantly!

Someone's already beaten the game in an hour and a half:

Yes indeed!
Doing podcast prep for the next few hours but this evening, for sure.

I may have, erm, accidentally treated myself to one of the limited edition TotK OLED Switch consoles as well...

So, um. Anyone playing the new one?

Those are all on the list.

Already on the list.
