God, I wish they had just released some sort of upgrade pack. I have no interest in unlock stuff for NG+ but I would have gladly taken the performance bump.

With MGS4 on Switch 2 I'm now reasonably certain that every game mentioned on 103 except for WoW is on a Nintendo console.

Tennis Fever is the most interested I've been in a Mario Tennis game since probably the GameCube version. It's definitely looked great. But I don't have a Switch 2 and when I do get one, it's not a title I'm going to be getting and playing right away. There's other titles I'd want to jump into first so I'm afraid I can't help you out on that front for some time if you are seeing me on your Switch friends list.

What's bad about tumbleweeds? Free and unfettered, able to travel where the wind blows. And they seem to be able to get around everywhere. Some days I'm surprised to see a tumbleweed appear in an area and kind of impressed at its ability to find a way. And they're totally essential to upgrade your shield and bow in Skyward Sword. Tumbleweeds rock!

It's worth noting that, apparently (for once), this release does have a bunch of stuff you can carry over from your original Ys Nordics save IF you already beat it and have a clear save, including levels; equipment; etc..

Is anyone on the fence about Fever? I've been waiting to see one of you online playing but alas I am alone. This game is absolutely incredible if you enjoy Tennis in general or have always wanted to enjoy Mario Tennis but some ol' bullship like racket breaking got in the way. This game is a return to form. Single player(not so much story mode yet) has been pretty engaging and multiplayer online and off has had my home erupting in screams and laughter. This game is legit!

Nice to see MGS4 appearing on a Nintendo system.

Whats the story on the two Master Collections? 1-3 on the first and the latter stuff on the second?

Shame there isn't any online support. But I suspect if they did that it would eat into any sales of more current or new titles. I would have loved to relive the days of Blockbuster where we rented this and extra controllers to play as a family (but now with friends online).

I think the critical reception towards Banaza and Z-A was completely warranted, as both felt like extremely polished but conceptually half-baked products.

Surely you mean Bananza was extremely polished and Z-A was half-baked, right? There is something about Bonanza that is half baked other than arguably the DLC, which might be a case of marketing forcing something into DLC.

Its interesting to hear Gui's thoughts on Battleaxe.
I bought the game when it was new. I think it is very cool and visually looks amazing with great pixel art and animation.
My issue is that is is structured like an arcade game and is extremely shallow.
The main game has some upgrades you can buy if you manage to collect enough coins, but the item shop doesn't explain what they do.
You also only get something like two or three lives. After that its game over, you dont get any extra continues or anything.
The gameplay is fun, but its a bit more difficult than I would like.
There are only three large levels in the main game mode, but I've never been able to finish the second level.
The games other mode is kind of more fun because it is somewhat endless. You just explore a maze like area looking for upgrades and items while defeating enemies until you find the exit to the next randomised level.
