I know RCMADIAX barely puts any work into these things and basically just slaps some instructions and copyright info into premade games, so I don't understand why he doesn't just gather up like 10 games and put them into one compilation for a couple bucks. Things like Brick Race and Shooty Space are absolute trash standalone but as part of a collection of quick timewasters they'd be a lot less offensive. I guess that's not as profitable as selling each one for $1.50 to dumb kids who don't know any better.
The most depressing thing of these threads is when I see the name of rcmadiax and its uppercases.
I was thinking several times don't mention its titles because I thought he tried boycott the eShop with bad shovelware.
I don't have anything against the developer but the way that he release games could be one of most unprofessional that I have seen in my life. Ninja Pig Studios wins the worst.

There are a few compilations in amongst the standalone shovelware, but they're like $3 for 3 games.
I almost thought about mentioning them, but as far as I know he has three compilations - Tap Tap Arcade 1 & 2 with 2 games each for $2, and Tabletop Arcade for $3 with 3 games... and aside from including one new game in TTA2 they're all cash grabs to make more money off of games he'd previously released standalone. Atrocious.
amazing
Oh my. lol
You laugh, but thats clearly a 7.5 over at Brashgames. Well, after its edited and re-credited.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
With Thumper out this week, and SFII next week (already out in Japan) it feels like we are running the well dry of known titles with release windows.
Feels like it's time to get more release info on stuff like Pocket Rumble, Overcooked, Stardew, and Hollow Knight.

For sure. We're getting Thumper and Galaxy Fight, another Neo Geo game, Thursday; Disgaea and Street Fighter next week; and then there's a 2-week hole before Cars 3 and Arms show up during E3. It seems unlikely but you have to hope that they announce a date for a couple things in the Direct tomorrow. I was secretly praying for Gungeon in the next couple of weeks but it doesn't sound like it's coming that soon.
Nice didnt know it was getting a demo
Neat
EU demo will release on Friday.
Thank you
For the Switch version anyway. Pretty sure 3DS users have to get the DLC in-game.
pretty done

It's exclusive so it's a good game according to Nintendo.
Can't believe this kind of shit is allowed but they turned down Cosmic Star Heroine
It's like there be two ecosystems with differing TOUs.
This is on Wii U, not Switch. RCMADIAX says they have no plans to develop for Switch yet, but I'm guessing Nintendo just said no.

It's almost as if the current Switch policies are most likely a direct response to what devs like RCMDIAX and Ninja Pig got away with on Wii U.
Yeah the insistence on using CAPITAL LETTERS to sell his SHITTY GAMES is the absolute worst.
It's kinda funny to think how the mild success of Blok Drop U got distorted into this mess.
This seems as good a place as any to ask a few general questions of what to expect from Switch vc based on past gens.
I haven't had a Nintendo system since N64, so I have tons of games I'd like to be able to buy (Galaxy series, DK, Zelda's etc etc). How likely is it that Nintendo will have those games up for purchase eventually once they launch vc on Switch?
And is it true they have or are switching to account ownership instead of console locked?

Nintendo has had account-based ownership since 2012 with the NNID on the Wii U (later also added to 3DS). Though, that system has been replaced by Nintendo Accounts on the Switch (NNIDs still exist, but it's seeming likely that they're mostly a legacy thing at this point).
In terms of games getting VC releases, most of the first party stuff usually will show up eventually once its original platform has been added to VC. The main exceptions are games that originally only released in Japan (barring a few exceptions like Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels or Sin and Punishment), games that have rights issues (some of these are less obvious than others, like the Super FX chip games), or stuff which used obscure features or peripherals that are more difficult to emulate.
3rd party games, on the other hand, depend entirely on whoever holds the rights to them.
That's good enough for me to pull the trigger. BOTW & MK8 will keep me occupied until vc eventually hits. Thanks man.
Edit
Guess I'm not pulling the trigger, like zero stock in the UK. Wow.

In regard to Rudymical I posted this in the thread made in general but I'll post it here too in case someone was wondering about it (verdict: not that good)
I picked this up because I enjoy rhythm games even though I'm not the greatest but this is kinda a dud for me. I watched a small amount of game footage and thought it was a cool mix of a fighter and rhythm game but the obvious main thing about a game like this besides solid gameplay is the music, and the "music tracks" in this are really, really bad.
It's also pretty barebones in terms of content and options. And forget Lunatic, that shit is literally impossible. lol

I've started ignoring the ALL CAPS when listing sales, and that would be the biggest offender.

Blazing Lazers and Super Star Soldier almost look like the same game. But they're not? How odd that one region gets one while another region gets the other, on the same day.
Enhanced version of Mighty Gunvolt, called Mighty Gunvolt Burst, is coming to 3DS & Switch. New features include a character growth system & "burst combo", which as achieved by delivering the final blow to an enemy when close by. Switch will have HD rumble support with item dousing.
Strangely, Ekoro from Gal Gun isn't returning....which is odd, she's coming as DLC for Blaster Master Zero next month.

I seriously hope Switch VC will include GB/C games so every VC console can be on one system instead of having a separate library (i.e. no GBA on 3DS & no GB/C on Wii U).
Also, you can download the ARMS testpunch demo now to be prepared for next week. Times you can play the demo:

About to start the final section of Mutant Mudds Super Challenge (5-x) and I've racked up about 450 deaths so far o.o
it sounds like a lot but once you start motoring through the game, it all just kind of flies by, lol
Really fun game overall, tough but rarely frustrating. I don't think I would play it without checkpoints though (I played through the original game before checkpoints were patched in).
edit: ^^^ I totally forgot about the ARMS direct D: I'll watch it now. :lol

I think NA got Super Star Solider last month. But yeah, those scrolling shooters run together sometimes.
Visit the Nintendo website - 30 platinum points
Click on the platinum coin on the My Nintendo main page (in the Mii animation) - 30 platinum points
Visit the eShop - 30 platinum points
Visit Miiverse - 30 platinum points
Those platinum discounts are just 150 points each, so after 3 weeks you can afford both without doing much. If you cannot wait that long, download their mobile apps and do some crappy missions in them.
Platinum points are so easy to collect and are worth nothing.
Playing these games without checkpoints sounds like a nightmare. In Super Challenge I sometimes would have hoped for more checkpoints, especially in the ghost levels. I also hated the flying bomb dropping enemies.
