I wish they had Alisia Dragoon on this collection. That was a fun platforming adventure from early Genesis days.

I got my Switch at Christmas, so I don't know to what degree that impacts the chances of mine getting defects like the cracks and scratches and dead pixels that I've been reading about. I've been lucky, I guess.

I remember the original Game Boy getting dead lines in the screen when I got it. It would develop random verticla dead lines along the right edge that would flicker on and off, and I also got a permanent horizontal dead line in it after I accidentally dropped it a coupld feet. :(

I'd have to give it to Celeste, too. That was a pretty tight game, loved the music. It actually caught my eye because my GF has that name. Funny thing is, I'm not the only one saying that. Weird.

This is the first time I've read about Switches developing spontaneous cracks, but when I read this, I looked at my Switch. Thankfully, no cracks. I also googled it to see how widespread the issue was.

One theory I've seen a lot is that one of the screws might have been over-tightened at the factory putting stress on the plastic casing. If the cracking is a factory defect, I'd say you definitely have a right to be pissed that a $300 piece of electronics is developing cracks like that.

My nephew used to love Thomas when he was a little kid. I babysat him a lot, so I watched a lot of it. I used to make jokes about the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt being cross every time the kid did something he wasn't supposed to be doing.

I love the Switch. I'm playing it more than PS4 since I got it, and games like Valkyria Chronicles 4 I am getting for Switch instead of PS4.

My tastes run toward stuff like VC4, Shining Resonance Refrain, and Octopath Traveler, so I don't know how much help I'd be.

I'm actually not too disappointed in the lack of a Virtual Console. I do hope they have it, and I hope they will have Gamecube games this time, since I've played all the SNES and NES stuff to death and don't have a lot of interest in revisiting the N64. However, I'm really enjoying the Arcade Archives stuff on it. The company that does Arcade Archives made a deal with Nintendo to bring their arcade catalogue to the Switch. So far, they have Punch-Out!!, Mario Bros, and Donkey Kong. Mario Bros. and DK are far superior to their NES versions. I still prefer Punch-Out on the NES. Since DK is my all time favorite arcade game and the arcade version has never been officially released until now, that's actually a huge deal for me.

If I were going to the beach with a video game character, it would definitely be Tifa.

I didn't either when I went to Rocky Point. I got kind of crispy. My traveling companion chewed me out over it, LOL.

Nintendo's big Japanese team, the one that made stuff like Mario.

I forgot about the Rudolph game, LOL. They had Wii games based around weird stuff. One of them was even based on the Cold Stone Creamery ice cream stores.
