....when did she get her hands on one of the officially licensed manga adaptations? /sI've always loved this reference (It's from Robin's support with Sumia in Awakening for those who don't know), because the definition of ribald is "referring to sexual matters in an amusingly coarse or irreverent way".
So Sumia is just casually telling Robin she's reading some kind of vulgar, erotic novel based on Genealogy.

This, AND it ran at 60fps. Which is a lot of effort in itself on the switch for a Zelda game too.Retooling the game to work with standard controls is not what I'd call "change almost nothing". It may not be a very exciting change for those of us who enjoyed the motion controls of the original, but it still took time/effort to do.

I think the lack of graphical upgrades is part of what makes it look lackluster in comparison. That and the $60 price tag.This, AND it ran at 60fps. Which is a lot of effort in itself on the switch for a Zelda game too.
What graphical updates needed to be done though? The water color artstyle is already done very well. Which they definitely did update the graphics. Look at a side by side comparison.

I'm going full delusion with this, Xenogears 2D-HD remake with Team Asano and Monolith Soft. First disc fully kept in tact but a lot of redoing in the second disc to bring it up to quality with the first disc. Furthermore a confirmation of this game being canon to both Xenoblade and Xenosaga, falling in line with Xenoblade Future Redeemed's ending. Would be excellent.Week 4: What other IP revival remakes like Another Code would you like to see and why? Can be first or third party.
Looking at the Another Code thread most people's reaction to that announcement was "does that mean Hotel Dusk has a chance??", so I'm going with that.We are entering our 4th week of Direct Speculation now! Last week was fairly chill and I expect the next one to be as well as Nintendo is putting out Another Code and we are gearing up for a jam packed (normal calendar) week of releases headlined by Under Night In-Birth II and Apollo Justice on Switch alongside Like A Dragon 8, Tekken 8, and more on other platforms. So while big news seems unlikely for a bit, we are inching ever closer to our generally expected Direct date and with it the chance for rumors and signs will slowly begin to rise! As for thread business, we do have a new poll that opened up this week asking all of us what will be the final one more thing the Direct ends on. Make your voice heard by voting if you haven't! It may just influence the direction of the next poll . Let's roll into our next weekly question then!
Week 4: What other IP revival remakes like Another Code would you like to see and why? Can be first or third party.
For my own answer, I think I'm going to pick Dragon Quest Heroes Rocket Slime which was a DS game sort of like 2D Zelda, but with these super rad giant tank battles where you'd launch a bunch of junk (and sometimes yourself!) out of your tank's cannon to disable and sabotage the enemy. This would be a tough game to update faithfully given it did take advantage of the two screens of the DS especially in the tank battles, but I'd love to see it brought back with some form of online play. Curious what y'all would like to see Fami!
Ah ! Laughs in Super Mario 64 DS.Nintendo won't do Yoshi in 3D because they don't want a behind-Yoshi view of Yoshi laying eggs.

Ooh those are some great picks! I'm planning to finally play Xenogears probably this year, but I'd be down to see an extensive remake given what I know about it. I just played both Startropics two years back and I think if they made those games a bit kinder people would be interested for sure. My favorite of your picks is definitely F-Zero GX. F-Zero 99 scratches a very different itch than that game. I just played a few races a month ago and it's absolutely fantastic still. Hopefully everything is unlocked from the start, that's my biggest request there lol.I'm going full delusion with this, Xenogears 2D-HD remake with Team Asano and Monolith Soft.

I have a friend who really likes Hotel Dusk. I never played them, but I'd be very excited to check it out!Looking at the Another Code thread most people's reaction to that announcement was "does that mean Hotel Dusk has a chance??", so I'm going with that.
A remake of both Kyle Hyde game in the style of the first Another Code + maybe a little extra bonus story that does gove us some closure on his older partner would be brillant.
Of course a third game would be da bomb but I'm not getting my hopes up THAT much.
I just recently played through the games in 2022 and I loved them.
I mean looking at the release of the two Golden Sun games I feel that having a proper remake/remaster would work well.

I could see them giving a brief glimpse of MP4 and then a full trailer during the switch 2 presentation to keep everybody happy. As for Zelda, like WWHD or something?If it has a last thing it's either MP4 or Zelda related.
That stupid thing works 5% of the time in our office and we are grateful for itIt’s obvious why games are going out of print.
It’s the same issue every company has in a workplace.
The stupid god damn printer won’t print anymore for who knows what god damn reason.
All I genuinely need anymore is a Quintet RPG trilogy collection with Soul Blazer, Illusion of Time/Gaia and Terranigma. I don't need a remake or anything, just a collection would be enough. Illusion of Time and Terranigma are my childhood and I lost my copies at some point, so having a way to easily replay them (and hopefully own a physical copy too) is my #1 wish/hope/thing I want.Week 4: What other IP revival remakes like Another Code would you like to see and why?

Zelda I think will be Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD, with no TOTK DLC in sight (I think they holding out on director cut/definitive editions) would be a good way to give more people Zelda while waiting for the next thing. I also think they could shadow-drop it like Pikmin 1 + 2 with physical later but yeah that's the only major remaster/remake left for NSW I feel.
Well, I would like one thing the most:Week 4: What other IP revival remakes like Another Code would you like to see and why? Can be first or third party.
Sin and Punishment is still rad and I absolutely adore Sin and Punishment 2. I replayed both a year ago and they absolutely still hold up. I'm torn here for Sin and Punishment 2 in particular because I'd love to see it come back, but I think for me at least it needs IR aiming to go along with it. If Nintendo ever makes a legacy Wii Remote accessory, Sin and Punishment needs to be right there with it.This is a tough one but I'd probably have to go with Sin & Punishment 1 + 2. The original dev, Treasure, is all but dead and the series probably has no future so I'd love to see remakes of both games that are playable with standard controls (plus maybe gyro), online leaderboards etc. The first one still works fine on NSO but is obviously outdated graphically (though I still love its look) and has pretty amateurish voice acting. The sequel still holds up incredibly but probably needs to be rebalanced due to the lack of pointer controls and would benefit from a more vibrant colour scheme plus modern lighting. Pretty much a pie in the sky wish but oh well.
Well, I would like one thing the most:
We may be getting a new Treasure game this year.Treasure, is all but dead
Following what sounds like an excellent Prince of Persia game (which is on its way to me, woop woop), and following their past success with Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends, I'd like to see Ubisoft Montpellier revive Wario Land under EPD's supervision. Bring Hiroji Kiyotake and let him supervise, and see if Takehiro Izushi can be tempted out of retirement for a supervisory role, too. Ubisoft Montpellier should have the design chops for a mascot platformer/Metroidvania successor to Wario Land 3.Week 4: What other IP revival remakes like Another Code would you like to see and why?

Yeah, S&P2 is too much fun with the pointer controls. I doubt gyro could properly replicate it but it's a compromise I'd be willing to accept just to have the game available on modern consoles (and in HD). The Wii release was playable with the Classic Controller as well after all.Sin and Punishment is still rad and I absolutely adore Sin and Punishment 2.

Ubisoft Montreal took over the project and I guess rebooted development.what happened to that sands of time remake?
Go with your gut! Will it into existence if it isn't happening!I voted Mother 3 in the poll. Too crazy?
I think Mother 3 and a series collection will happen at some point. Nintendo knows it would sell well.Go with your gut! Will it into existence if it isn't happening!
I don't know if this is the time, but one day Mother 3 is going to happen and we are all going to wonder why it took so long.

You think that DLC for TotK would delay the next Zelda by two years?despite everyone waiting a DLC for Tears of The Kingdom, Nintendo will not do this for a very good reason(they want the next mainline Legend of Zelda game, ready by 2027/2028, if the Zelda team did a DLC for Tears of The Kingdom, everyone would be playing the next Legend of Zelda by 2029/2031
Yes, Nintendo will be working on much stronger hardware, and if they focused on Tears of the Kingdom DLC, that would have made the next Legend of Zelda start development this year or next year, giving the Zelda team, much less time to work on it(also Nintendo problaby want the next Legend of Zelda by at least on year 4 of it next console, if not less(so by 2027/2028)You think that DLC for TotK would delay the next Zelda by two years?

Both Torna and Future Redeemed came out less than a year after the main games so I'm not sure how you arrived at 2 years but alright.i assumed Tears of the Kingdom DLC would be ambitious as Future Redeemed/Torna was, so a DLC in this kinda of ambitious, lately many Nintendo IP has taken a more ambitous scope, so short of a mini campaing
I'm not sure if this was what they were getting at, but at least for the Xenoblade games there was clearly thought put into the dlc and some work done before the games released. IIRC Torna had been planned for the main game but was cut for time and pacing, and FR must have had thought put into it during the main game development as the founder statues were pretty blatant dlc bait. Also we know Xenoblade 3 was moved up, so odds are by the time the game was revealed most of the team was working on the dlc.

Bang on. Torna was planned to be slotted between, I believe, chapter 7 and 8 but was cut and expanded into Torna.

True but the same goes for a hypothetical TotK DLC. If Aonuma's claim about TotK having been delayed for over a year for polishing is accurate, planning and development on DLC could have also started much earlier. They wouldn't have started on May 12, 2023, so I'm not really sure why it would delay the next Zelda to such an extent.I'm not sure if this was what they were getting at, but at least for the Xenoblade games there was clearly thought put into the dlc and some work done before the games released.

While I don't really expect us to get much more than what you are saying I would really welcome a small expansion akin to Bowser's Fury as an incentive to get a TotK rerelease or upgrade patch for for the new System.Real talk, the only thing i could see Nintendo doing for TotK is a Master Mode update (free update) that adds Gold type enemies, and would this really be called DLC (in theory yes, but in the meaning of how the term is usually used)?
And even if Aonuma were to talk shit, and they are doing DLC (more than Master Mode stuff), then it's likely not on the scale of Torna, Future Redeemed or something like Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree.
On top, it's also likely that even in this case, the "main" team would've moved on already and the DLC would be done by a smaller core team, so it would definitely not delay any plans for the next new Zelda game.
What exactly is "short" in your mind for a 3D Zelda?While I don't really expect us to get much more than what you are saying I would really welcome a small expansion akin to Bowser's Fury as an incentive to get a TotK rerelease or upgrade patch for for the new System.
It could be a smaller more focussed adventure that could maybe even quell the needs of more classic Zelda fans.
I would envision it as something similar to the great plateau or the indie game a short hike.
A more condensed version of the main gameplay loop of the main game, but with the benefits of what you are able to do when you are realising a more focused shorter experience.
It could expand upon the sky islands that were been so prominent in the marketing while they were just a vehicle for puzzles in the actual game and have some story take place outside of memories. Maybe try to utilise some new rendering techniques or other features that weren't possible on the current Switch.
But I'm just daydreaming.
A short little 3D Zelda would be cool.
