@retro junkie I tried your link and I was not able to get it to load... so far, I haven't been able to find the listing on Amazon either.  perhaps it was taken down?

NICE!   :happydance:    This is such an awesome pack of Neo Geo games.

King of the monsters, Blazing Star, and Fatal Fury Special alone are just worth it.

I have now pre-ordered as well in hopes for this trophy hunt.  One thing I do not know right now... can trophies be completed together in co-op.  I'm looking for that information

I'm there with you on the trying to get into a NES game. If its not Zelda, Castlevania, or Metroid I've not given it ten minutes in the last 5 - 10 years. Its a lot easier going back to the SNES.

Nice!  I will throw out a pre-order topic as well.  It's not a super expensive system... but I like the system at $169.95 LOL.  Maybe it would be without the Banjo collection  :))

Good post @Bomberman!  For sure, I agree the Nintendo Switch 2 Launch is better than the Nintendo Switch 1's launch.  Factor in that you can play all the Switch 1 games... it is primed to be an awesome system.  The performance increases are also notable - we will see how long those increases are noticeable and last in the future as games progress.

I think the Nintendo Switch 2 pricing has caused some of the slower adoption.  We are getting to a point where it will be more expensive to upgrade to the Switch 2 from the Switch... and Switch 1 releases will start to get slower.  Peripherals are also insanely expensive now (see topic).  They were pretty high with the Switch 1, but the Switch 2 Peripherals cost more.  A few of these reasons coupled together have caused a slower adoption of the Switch 2.

At the end of the day, I think the Switch 2 is going to start gaining a ton of steam.  The games launched have all been pretty good ... even down to Kirby Air Riders  :great:   I think it's going to be that cost, which who knows how how it will go in the near future, that slows up Switch 2 adoption.   The games are there.

Let's go Star Fox!
