All games on all platforms getting a two-year delay so I can even remotely catch up. Read more

Oh my god do I ever second the Okami announcement. Even just a ground up HD remake of the game would be okay with me. That is a game I make a point of playing once a year, it is just fantastic. Read more

New Leaf is what sold me on the 3DS, so it’s not that crazy to believe it’d be a system seller for a lot of people. Read more

A new Metroid prime game from the original studio.... Read more

Cyberpunk 2077 Gameplay trailer + Release date. Read more

Many of the biggest games are just sequels to PS3/360 franchises. which is fine, but I’d like Rocksteady or Gearbox or DICE or anybody to have something new and exciting.

It’s never going to happen...but a sequel to Radiata Stories. Or a remake. It’s one of my favourite RPGs! Read more

I think if they could port it forward and build on what they have now, that would be excellent. MK8D had the Inklings added, so having a Splatoon or ARMS rep would be awesome, and then maybe some more reps from non-Nintendo (a hunter from Monster Hunter would be pretty cool). Read more
