Nice nostalgia trip. Missing the SNES Aladdin
on December 9, 2019
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an excellent package of older games. They play exactly as I remember them.
A couple of cons here: 1) I wish they would have remastered the games to play in full screen without stretching or borders. 2) They left out a few games, namely the SNES version of Aladdin which is completely different from the Sega Genesis version. It's probably because that game was made by Capcom and there were likely licensing issues. I would have loved to have it as part of this collection.
The games are still amazing to have on the Switch on a physical cart but only for about $20.00 tops.

In my opinion this is the best version of the game available. JRPG's are just great to play in portable fashion and this has all the content included, with great graphics and music.

Complete game and all DLC on the cartridge!
on November 9, 2019
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an impressive feat to fit everything on 1 cartridge with no download required. The game also comes with a collectible outer sleeve and other goodies.
Other gaming companies no longer have any excuse to make us download gigantic parts of the game. This is how physical releases should be treated.
The game itself is a marvel too, especially on portable mode.

Extremely addictive strategy RPG
on August 17, 2019
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
This game has tons of content. I'm about 50 hours in and I'm probably only about halfway through the story. Not to mention there are several different stories depending on which house you choose at the beginning.
Cannot recommend it more.

Incredible game that needs a patch to be perfect
on July 5, 2019
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
Incredible game that needs a patch to be perfect on the Switch. Don't listen to the people that make this game sound unplayable on Nintendo's system. I bought it day 1 and fell in love with it instantly.
I have not played the PS4/Xbox1/PC versions so I am not comparing it to those. I can honestly say that if you have not played those like me and you love Super Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night this is a great game that should not be missed and plays well portable.
I believe they announced a patch on July 15th as well that will address many of the issues reported.

Fantastic game, multiplayer online is unplayable
on July 5, 2019
Posted by: AlexV
Verified Purchase:Yes
As of this writing, the multiplayer online is unplayable and that is the only reason I took away a star. It's slow and will basically kick you out at times. I'm certain a patch is coming to fix this soon.
Other than that the game is absolute perfection in my eyes. A masterpiece and honestly the last 2d Mario you will need to buy.

Accelerate your entire PC experience with the fast, powerful NVIDIA GeForce GT 1030 graphics card. Its award-winning NVIDIA Pascal architecture, powerful graphics engine, and state-of-the-art technologies give you the performance upgrade you need to drive today~s most demanding PC applications. Unleash your creativity with stunning HD video and picture editing and enjoy incredible gaming. Now, you can do it all 2X faster than with Intel Core i5 integrated graphics. You can even get easy driver updates and one-click game optimization with GeForce Experience.
 

Is there a way to install this in a W10/64 machine that has no current graphics card? If so, how do the drivers install?

Yes you can definitely install this into a Windows 10 machine. Windows will automatically get working drivers as long as you are connected to the Internet when you start the PC.

I would recommend downloading the GeForce Experience from the Nvidia site and letting it obtain the drivers afterwards and choose the "clean install" option. This is the easiest way to ensure that you have the latest drivers. I uninstall GeForce Experience once I'm done since I don't like bloatware.

It looks like there are two disc holders on this. Why is this exclusively offered for the Nintendo Switch version if there is no cartridge holder (and not offered with the PS4 or Xbox One version)???

It comes with a plastic insert inside that will hold the Nintendo cartridge as well as the disc hubs to place the disc in for other versions.

Add a splash of color to your entertainment system with this Nintendo Joy-Con for Nintendo Switch. Its bright neon red and blue hues add a cheerful touch, and it lets you include another player in your games for competition or cooperation. This Nintendo Joy-Con can be separated into two parts for additional control options. Can be used by pairing wirelessly to Nintendo Switch 2. Cannot be attached to Nintendo Switch 2. A Nintendo Switch console or compatible accessory such as a Joy-Con charging grip or Joy-Con charging stand (two-way) is required for charging.
 

My current controllers aren't working properly. Can I pair a new set to my Nintendo switch?

Yes. The easiest way to pair these new Joycons is to just physically attach them to the desired system. They will pair immediately. Make sure to update them in the settings as well once attached.

Is this the blue(L) and red(R) set? Or is it the other way around. I see the pictures have both sets and do not specify which.

The ones I bought at the best buy store came with a LEFT RED and RIGHT BLUE. This is the opposite of the colors that come included with the neon blue and red switch console.
