I'm sorry, friend, it pains me to say it but it won't happen. Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE deserved a better fate than to languish on a dead console nobody bought, but it's never coming to Switch.

:toxx:

e: also P5 is great

I have the feeling you'll regret this toxx, TMS seems like it has a great chance of coming to WiiU. Anything that came out in the last year and a half of the WiiU like Pokken and TMS was likely ignored; it'd be smart to plug in those lesser known games into the eshop of their new bestseller to bridge the gaps.

I threw it in a closet alongside my PS3. Are digital games linked to the account on the Wii U? If I delete my account and give away the system are the digital games still there for someone to play

I might leave it at a friend's house to become a permanent Smash 4 machine

Just saw that Nintendo has been found to of just trademarked the N64 controller design, which means the N64 classic is coming at some point soon.

The games list on that will be interesting due to the weird rights holder stuff with many of the most popular games.

I'm not sure if you're talking about the Wii Downloads for WiiU but those weren't ports.

Metroid Prime Trilogy was a Wii game, so was RE4 and the New Play Control games. All of them were playable on WiiU (provided you had Wii Remote/Nunchuk), but there were never any actual ports of them. The only actual port of a Wii game to WiiU was, like, Twilight Princess I'm pretty sure (and technically that was a GameCube port). Well, maybe some indie or 3rd party stuff was ported from Wii to WiiU.

I haven't turned my Switch on in weeks, but I guess I'm just a troll.

I honestly haven't either, but I will be buying Spla2n tomorrow and can't wait. 150+ hours of Zelda burned me out, so I've just been playing rocket league a ton on xbox/PC. If that was out on Switch I would literally never put my switch down.

Spla2n for a month, Rabbids for a month, Odyssey forever, and then I will probably actually buy both Zelda DLC's at the same time and reboot that game sometime in the winter. The switch is good. Sorry about your Stardew, though :(

Ideally, the control scheme would be updated so you don't need the old controller or other extra hardware? This would be like a "port" of a classic PC game requiring you to dig out and install your ancient 16-bit soundblaster from the 90s, or else it hard-locks your machine.

Nevermind, I just figured it out. What I was saying was RE:4 and the New Play Control series are ports of Gamecube games, on the Wii

It's not, though? It's not a port if it can't run on the hardware, and that includes peripherals.

Is this a better comparison? A Mac version of a PC game that absolutely will not recognize that one-button mouse.

Fascinating! Is there any way to play on a big screen in a nice chair without lag?

There will always be a minimum of one frame with LCD; it's not really noticeable until you hit three or more with online games though. Only CRT is truly lag free.
What you can do is check if your TV is on the https://www.displaylag.com list, and try to optimize whatever game/PC settings are on your TV to reduce it. Rockband's manual lag test is a pretty good test to see how bad it is.
Personally, I just use a 32" monitor if I want to play online games.

The top 3 are definitely correct IMHO. Nintendo's online gives dodge grab gameplay extreme priority. I know the game tells you that you can punch away grabs but online that is not the case at all. Maybe a patch will fix it or else the game will just die a quick death when it really shouldn't.

Not that I disagree with any of this, but the game was confirmed to be in EVO Japan so I imagine the game will probably live till that's over.
