I hope Google dusts off Project Ara one day. That looked like a cool concept that’s only now being made into a reality to some extent.

As much as I know Nintendo would love to sell the same games again, I doubt they’d rather put in the time and effort to port the most popular games than put that effort towards being able to continue selling the Switch’s pre-existing back catalog on the new system.
edit: However, I can definitely see them doing the PS5 thing and charging $10 to upgrade Switch 1 games to take advantage of the Switch 2.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this had something to do with the impending Microsoft buyout, seeing as they’ve been putting all their PC games on Steam for a while. That being said, I also wouldn’t be surprised if Microsoft starts moving away from both Steam and Battle.net once the deal closes in favor of the Xbox launcher now that they have a ton of potential exclusives for it.
Jerboa’s improved a lot lately, but I’ve also been using Connect when it has problems. When the Lemmy versions of popular Reddit apps come out, I might switch to one of them since I expect them to be more refined out of the gate.
The thing I think I want the most is a clone of RIF’s comment navigation. Being able to easily skip through long threads is a feature I didn’t realize I’d miss, but I used it all the time on there. Jerboa kind of has it now, but it doesn’t let you move up through child comments and the “active” comment is always at the top of the screen.
I think they need to find a way to merge the BOTW open world with the more traditional structure of Zelda games. The issue is that those two philosophies are sort of at odds with each other, with BOTW and TOTK not wanting the player to be locked out of anything while exploring the world while the traditional structure has you unlock items throughout the game in order to solve puzzles, which there are much fewer of outside of dungeons. It can work though, if Wind Waker is any indication with its side islands.
This is still a good deal but it’s worth noting that they stopped selling the mainline Sonic games in this pack when they released Origins.
As far as I know, talklittle is focused on making a Tildes app called Three Cheers for now, and had been working it even before the announcement from Reddit. As much as it would be nice to have a Lemmy successor to RIF, the closest we’ll probably get any time soon is an app that’s just inspired by the RIF design.
I wonder if they have big plans for the series going forward if they went out of their way to create new logos for the first 3 games to match the 4th one… or some executive just wanted to keep the branding consistent.
I think I’d consider this more along the lines of homebrew unless it gets an official, Nintendo-licensed release for the original hardware. Star Fox 2 is in a similar boat since Nintendo did officially release it in 2017, but only as a bonus for the SNES Classic and later NSO.
You still can’t get Rocket League on Steam on an account that didn’t already have the game bought before it was F2P. Is this the case for Fall Guys, or did they go further and stop updating the Steam version?
