This feel like a time paradox

This figure feels like it came out in a world where the N64 was a disc based system and FF7 came out on it instead of PlayStation. Still no version of FF7 has appeared on a Nintendo console but maybe that will change soon.

How do we live in a world where not only does Bayonetta appear in one of the biggest Nintendo games ever made but we also get a high quality Nintendo made figure? What a world...

A solid sequel to a solid fighting game. While I've bounced off of the game fairly quickly I enjoyed my time with it.

This game is basically a compilation of every WipEout game post WipEout Fusion for PS2. It's basically everything those PSP, PS3, and Vita games were and more with a mostly new soundtrack. Add in the ability to use Spotify you can put together some really great WipEout appropriate soundtrack. This game still lags behind WipEout XL and WipEout 3 in my eyes but this being the third best WipEout game is high praise.

It's nice to have a good Zelda amiibo. Many found her annoying in Breath of the Wild but I personally liked the new Zelda.

Pointless release but still great

So Capcom has put out yet another version of Street Fighter 2. This version is an evolution of the 2008 HD Remix version of the game though it's surprisingly different from that version. I personally prefer the visual options in this version over the visual options in the HD Remix. HD Remix allowed you to play the game with the HD visuals on in either zoomed in 16:9 or original 4:3 and in 4:3 mode you could swap the HD player sprites for the original player sprites (but you could not play with the original background sprites). In Ultra Street Fighter 2 your options are to play with the HD visuals in zoomed in 16:9 or play in 4:3 with all of the original visuals. I like to play on the TV with the original visuals and on the Switch screen with the HD visuals. Some negatives this version has:
-Don't even bother playing Way of the Hado. it's awful.
-No real dip switch-style options. Considering all the options HD Remix and Hyper Street Fighter 2 gave you this is kind of a big let down
-Does not include any of the original arcade games attract intros
-Limited soundtrack options. Your options are the original Super Turbo soundtrack and a new Capcom produced remix soundtrack. While the new remixes aren't terrible they aren't particularly great either. The fact that this doesn't include all of the soundtrack versions from Hyper or HD Remix is a big let down.
-The HD visuals. While I would generally consider myself a defender of the HD visuals they do have some issues (some of which are new to this version). The most notable problems being that Akuma looks really weird, some stages look a little barren compared to the original and the new issue is that certain stage elements have been altered or don't move as they should (Ryu & Zangief's stages being the most notable examples)
-No option to see the original endings, only the HD Remix endings
-This game retains the Super Turbo issue of there being zero bonus stages in arcade mode
-The end credits are real generic.

If you can look past all of the above issues (and the $40 price tag) then this is a really good version of Street Fighter 2 that you can play on a modern platform and on the go. Having said that, I bought this for just shy of $30, so I'd only recommend this game if you can get it for less than $30 because it's still just SF2. If you do get this I would recommend picking up the Pokken Tournament controller as it almost feels like it was actually made with games like Street Fighter in mind.
