As important as exclusives are for gaming to grow, it’s always frustrating when great console games never get re-released.
Ben reviews Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance for Nintendo Switch 2, as available through Nintendo Classics.
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance is now available on Nintendo Switch 2 as the next Nintendo Classics title for Nintendo GameCube.
I understand it takes time.. but jesus, can Nintendo just devote an entire team who's sole responsibility is porting these games over? So many great Gamecube games, and nothing against this title, but the drip feeding is painstakingly slow.
Open the floodgates!
It's crazy how this was one of the first games announced for the service too, yet we received unannounced titles before it!
Honestly. Nintendo can get fucked. I don't participate in any of their scams anymore, they've lost their luster. They just want the money, and they're releasing slop and intentionally slowly dripping releases we actually want to see. Tired of their schemes.
The demise of gaming started with the release of the PS5 and Series X. Both released too early and the previous consoles still hanging about, we're still seeing new PS4 releases. The price of games and controllers these days, we're heading for another 1980 gaming crash. The likes of the PS6 and whatever Xbox, leave it for another 5 years, around 2030, but by then, I'd hate to think how much consoles will cost.
I still have my original GameCube copy. This is one of my favorite on my GameCube because it is my first time playing a Fire Emblem game.
Great that you still have the original. I have original games on disc, but I'm in the process of moving them on and discs start to rot.
I'm not one for going back to old games, but it makes me chuckle when games go missing. On top of that, why don't Nintendo finally change its ways and offer its online service with everything for a flat price of say £24.99 a year. Faffing on with pricing models is the dogs dinner. On top of that, we've paid for these games years ago, but you could say the games are free and you pay to play games online. I know I'm never going to see a single format and I've been gaming since around 1982, but gaming needs to start moving in the right direction with pricing, more so the price of games and controllers these days.
Does those 10-15 pounds really make that big of a difference? It's pretty cheap for a full year.
And i never paid for any of these games and never played any of them. So that might be why i find it appealing.
Though would be nice if the individual games could be purchased as well. But would probably still subscribe, i use these console apps a lot.
Big Bandai Namco Nintendo Switch eShop sale just started with lowest prices ever for Digimon Survive and Next Order, Baten Kaitos, and more.
Very interesting article as there is some very nice games in there that I have already played & some I heard for the first time & they also look very interesting, all in all agree that there is some forgotten gems that never re-released in newer consoles & that's a shame as they definitely deserve to be known by the younger generation of gamers who never had the chance to play them till now.
3DD Dot Game Heroes ids one of the best games ever lol. One game I never want to get rid of
I was just thinking of Baten Kaitos after playing the definitive edition of XC1 (same dev) man I miss that game and that era of gaming.
