I was actually pleasantly surprised at how soon Mario Odyssey dropped down to $47. I think it happened the Spring after the Holiday season when it released, so less than 6 months? Then again, I never did see BotW on sale...

Yeah, we're definitely due an Earthbound HD Remake.

Skip to :20 and watch it on mute.

Yeah it's probably running a different ROM for each console since they're technically not backwards compatible on the same exact system even though the Switch has the hardware horsepower to handle them. Kinda like how your android phone still needs different emulator apps to run GBA games and N64 games. I'm actually super stoked AF for this. This means I can finally ditch the Virtual Console on the 3DS and the emulated games on my android tablet that I couldn't play any other way like the OG Star Fox (Nintendo couldn't legally re-release it until now due to strange copyright shenanigans). Zelda ALttP Super Metroid Star Fox Super Mario World Mario Kart F-Zero Plus I'm gonna get even more mileage out of my 8BitDo SN30 Pro bluetooth gamepad now. I've already been using it for nearly a year as a Switch Pro Controller, Android controller for emulators, and as a PC controller for Steam games (used it when I recently played Dishonored 2), but it was literally made for these SNES games.

I saw my friend play it once and tried it myself a few times. It's probably about as difficult as Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels. It feels like one of those 90's arcade games designed to just take your hard earned quarters regardless of your skill. But yeah, once you memorize every level, boss and all the patterns and can react to things because you already know they're going to happen before they do; you can get eventually through it.
