I don't know why this is such a big deal. When I first saw this was coming, online multi-player was the farthest thing from my mind. All I was thinking of was running around as Oddjob in 4 play split screen.
In effect, you join your "party" in the application menu interface. It's all brokered through the Switch UI. From the game's perspective, all players are local.How does online N64 on Switch even work?
Are there custom lobbies - ranked play - playlists?
Ive never used the service so I dont have a clue.
Shame to finally get the game after 25 years of waiting and have it show up in this state.
Thats... interesting, to say the least. So you mean when you play FZero X online with 3 others - the screen is still split 4 ways?In effect, you join your "party" in the application menu interface. It's all brokered through the Switch UI. From the game's perspective, all players are local.
Works like a charm for stuff like Streets of Rage 2 et al. I'm assuming for Goldeneye all 4 players will see split-screen on each screen.
Yes, you can only play with your existing Switch friends; there is no matchmaking of any kind whatsoever nor any real "matching" UX. Just a basic invite feature. The game just thinks it's all local players.Thats... interesting, to say the least. So you mean when you play FZero X online with 3 others - the screen is still split 4 ways?
And essentially you can only play with friends?
The wording is not clear enough. I don't think it means they're going to remove online from the Xbox version.
Missing the point goldeneye needs online multiplayer Liz

I'm going to try to complete it so I can always get behind saying the game is only good with nostalgic glassesWhat xbox owner would even bother playing then? Seems like a waste all the way around. Poor dev decision. Hope MS didn't pay much for free coop cuz nobody is gonna play that.
It sounds like Nintendo owns the IP so it seems pretty generous they are allowing Xbox to release a remaster .Hope no Xbox fans are going to complain about Nintendo setting stipulations for a game they originally published. After all, I’ve spent the last week reading the gleeful commentary about MS being able to tell Sony to fuck off once they acquire Activision.
Your right, Xbox has alot going for them but unfortunately one thing has been true about Xbox since the beginning of the Xbox one gen and that is they are great at getting in their own way.

Nah it’s the remaster that was leaked online, made for the 360. Not emulationThe NSO release is just a straight up N64 Rom in emulation, and probably they just let MS do the same version in a higher resolution emulation front-end.
If Rare could, they would probably release that canceled 360 remaster officially.

Meanwhile, at Nintendo:And I'm STILL not getting Nintendo Switch Online. Just let me buy these games instead of locking them behind a shitty subscription 'service' which provides the bare minimum of content.
Sorry all I’ve been reading is that Sony can suck a fat dick because Xbox will own the publishing rights to CoD once this deal goes through. So I guess Nintendo told MS to suck a fat one in regards to MP but that’s ok, I’m glad.You sure Sony published or had IP rights to Call of Duty?

Why would Xbox fans care about banjo in smash? I was just saying I hope no Xbox fans complain about getting a gimped goldeneye port.Or you could use the Banjo Kazooie analogy where MS - the acquiring party - let Nintendo use a Microsoft IP in Smash Bros.
That’s a much closer analogy, but you’re certainly not going to use that for obvious reasons
Thank Nintendo’s usual shitty policies.Incredibly disappointing. I don’t know what to say, this industry is choking itself, we could’ve got an awesome returnal of a beloved game but all we get is some bs rushed high res emulation nonsense.

Er meh god Nintendo’s emulator has online play u uninformed fuckin peasants I can’t believe some of you actually leave the house sometimesthere are no stipulations...
Nintendo Online emulators all have the ability to play retro games online by syncing up 2 or more instances.
exactly like Retroarch and other emulators. this introduces a decent amount of input lag and is only even remotely playable if you live in the same geneal region, by which I mean less than 800 KM away from eachother
the game itself has no online functionality, hence it has no online on Xbox.
Nintendo's emulator does have online functionality, hence it can be played online.
I am astonished how fucking uniformed people on here are sometimes, holy shit

What does goldeneye have to do with yes 6 and fallout 5?But TES 6 and Fallout 5 will 100% be exclusive to xbox. The best place to play!!
Oh dude, i used to wind my mates up so mucnwhen i used to pick OddJob on N64 multiplayer. I would just run around them left and right picking them off and they could barely see me as i was so small.I don't know why this is such a big deal.

Well why couldn’t Xbox just release their completed XBLA version of the game with a functioning online similar to their release of Perfect Dark?
That's why we have nostalgia, makes shitty old games play like a dream.This game isn’t gonna hold up like people think
It was made by Rare.that version was made by a different studio, might involve other licenses they didn't renew and don't have anymore.
I never said it did. I may be a peasant, but at least I can read.also that version didn't have online mp either you uninformed peasant indeed
