I don't give two shits about Shin Megami Tensei or whatever the fuck that series is. That's just dumb weeb shit.

Now I would love to see a Final Fantasy Legend + Romancing SaGa 1 compilation. That's top quality weeb shit.
I'm bringing this up because hey, look what I was just reminded of:

Well, that sucks.

There were remakes of SaGa 2 and 3 on the DS, only released in Japan, but fan translations exist. I tried SaGa 2, and it was actually pretty good. Much more palatable by modern standards than the Game Boy versions, too.

I'd buy a Switch port of those. Not the Game Boy ones again. Good lord.
 
Final Fantasy hasn't been quality in over a decade.
I mean, they aren't really Final Fantasy games. They were the first three games in the SaGa series, but in the west they were rebranded to sell better. It isn't like the first Mana game(Final Fantasy Adventure) where it was intended to be a Final Fantasy spin-off.
 
I'm getting the Saga collection but when it's available in Physical format. The grandia HD collection is still being offered on LRG for the switch.

I dunno the 7 remake is very good and people still play it in large numbers months after it's release. It got more things right than it got wrong unlike Final Fantasy 11, original Release of 12, 13, 13-2, and 15.

Lightning Returns was a tri-ace game that they made play like Valkyrie Profile. Final Fantasy 10 was also a good game.

Zodiac Age Release of 12 removed nearly all the tedium from the game, you can even buy the wooden chops to get past that annoying city part with ease since getting max money is incredibly easy.

I think Final Fantasy is starting to turn around.

world of final fantasy is an acceptably playable monster collector. It's a PSVita port on the switch so it's probably worthwhile. I'm still in the earlygame segment though.
 
This has like next to no chance at happening.

Unlike OG Mario All Stars, all the 3d games all control very differently from each others and also you're talking needing to redo mario 64's control scheme for a modern controller, bringing Sunshine's and 64's graphics up to par, and needing to also redo galaxy's 1 and 2's controls because motion control bullshit is dead.

At this point you're investing a shitload of resources on par with a full new game. The NSMB series were soulless crap which was why they got the collection. They're all the same game. These other 3d marios are not.

It's like asking Disney to feed your Star Wars nostalgia fix, it's not going to happen. They may shit out something once in a blue moon, but they're never going to give you what you exactly want unless another company has a say in it.
 
If they haven't announced it by now, I don't think Mario 3D collection is happening. Nintendo fans really love to hype themselves up only to be disappointed it seems.

Don't even know how that rumor started but I smelt the bullshit a mile away. It simply wouldn't be smart from their perspective since they could make more money selling the games separately. If they ever remake oracles of ages and seasons, I bet they'll charge you full price for both games instead of full price for one game collection like Crash and Spyro trilogy.

Fake leaks and rumors has ruined nintendo message boards for me tbh. Even youtubers like Switchforce I no longer can watch because its all clickbait. Some would argue that nintendo needs better communication which I agree but even then I wish people would play other games instead of getting mad when leakers and shit are wrong.

I predict nintendo is hiding a big release for the holiday season (possibly BOTW2.) Personally don't see how fanboys just expect new AAA games so frequently. FFS atleast be happy the switch isn't like the wiiu where that thing barely had 1st and 3rd party support.

Funny enough, I went onto the Super Mario and Nintendo reddits to see what they were saying about it. I take it this is only a Youtuber thing because the only thing I saw was someone on the Nintendo reddit who made a topic a year ago that basically said "Hey, wouldn't a Mario 3D All Stars be cool?"

And now I'm sitting here wondering...was *that* the origin of all this? Just some guy shitting out an idea on reddit?

Even if the rumor was based in reality and not "my dad works for nintendo" crap like 99% of them, people shouldn't get all hyped up. The thing a lot of gamers, Nintendo fans and the leakers themselves especially, don't get about rumors is that just because a studio talked internally about doing something, or even started it, doesn't mean it's coming out soon or even going to be made at all. Projects can change drastically in development too. I'm sure Nintendo has considered a lot of things fans wish would happen, even wrote up some plans. Proof of concept demos even. People wanted MMO pokemon for years, and the gigaleak proved there was a pitch for that idea back in the GBA days, but that was all.

You know I wouldn't be surprised if Geno actually was considered for Smash Ultimate at some point in development and they simply decided to focus on other more marketable characters.
 
Of all the rumors that the Nintendo fanbase latches onto and refuses to let go off this is easily the most unlikely one, why do people still buy into it so much?
I could see them remaster a single game maybe at some point but not the entire collection where each game has its own distinct physics, enemies, moves or settings.
Worst part is this is probably going to continue for a long time since Nintendo obviously won't ever step in and actively deconfirm it themselves.

I could genuinely see a Sunshine or Galaxy 1+2 combo pack but not fuckin' everything shoved together.

a NSMB compilation does sound viable too tbh.

Wouldn't surprise me at all. I guess it seems feasible because Nintendo's perplexingly rereleased almost everything worthwhile on the Wii U, but still not Super Mario 3D World.

Plus, we're on the Switch's 4th year, and no Nintendo console since the SNES has ever had a good 4th year. Ah yes, all the great hits that were released for the N64 in 2000, the Gamecube in 2005, the Wii in 2010, and the Wii U in 2016.

Man, I might pick that up on fuckin' clearance, but I just can't encourage S-E to slap three Game Boy roms on a cartridge and call it a day. Those games are so simple, they're comfortable to play on a cellphone emulator. Like with the touchscreen controls.

SaGa 2 is a semi-beloved game of mine, too. I really liked its slapdash mixture of high tech and fantasy, what with the game taking place in a high fantasy anime world, but robots and guns exist, and your lead character can optionally be a robot packing a Colt revolver that happens to have a human mom and dad and it just doesn't explain shit. And the wildly customizable parties you can use can bring forth some crazy challenges, what with the hefty limitations of robots and monsters.

Like I don't know why they never expanded on the SaGa universe in a better way. I've only ever heard bad things about Unlimited SaGa, and Frontier 1 & 2 seem to be extremely love-it-or-hate-it games. They sound like such great ideas for games put forth by a team with no idea how to execute them well.
 
Saga does a bad job at explaining it's mechanics. It also has a few instances where they partially explain the mechanics and then put you in an auto losing battle so it looks like you did something wrong.

The series needs help if it wants to gain traction. The only thing that's unique about it is how obtuse everything is.
 
Also paper mario TOK was just out in july.. like do they really want big AAA game every week?

Yes, they do.

Which would be perfectly reasonable if they didn't restrict themselves to one developer on one console. PS and Xbox owners have more access to AAA games than they can shake a stick at, especially now at the end of the console cycle.

As bad as being a Nintendo-only gamer is normally, the Switch is around halfway done by now, and Nintendo famously doesn't give a shit about putting out games except in the first and last year of their consoles' lifetime.
