I know, right?

I immediately had a kneejerk "is this April 1st?" reaction.

That looks terrible, and for $20 I'd wonder if we time skipped to April 1st too.

Mega Man 11 came in the mail today but I don't think I have time for it yet. Anyone here have some fun with it so far?

I *almost* bought it and the Amiibo yesterday, but showed some restraint. I told myself that I want to stay focused on Resident Evil for TR this month before buying any new games. But yeah. MM11 and Starlink both come out this month. Those are like the last BIG games for the year for me.

Well, Johnny has a new game coming out called Heavy Burger... Yeah. It's $20 and an original game featuring characters from various Data East IPs. It looks questionable...

Update. This is supposed to be released tomorrow, but is no longer listed on the eShop. Have I been trolled after all!? We'll see!

The link in the eshop entry to the web site always returned a 404, so this is indeed confusing.

hey so, am I the only who's played Arena of Valor? I've played at least a few rounds EVERY NIGHT since release.

All this talk around the new Switch revision rumor is interesting... I kind of wonder if switch is going to be like a phone, where you get a new one every 3 years or so, always an improvement but the same base build and form factor. It would be a good idea IMO, if the tech can be on pace.

I feel like the revision will be minor... More internal memory, bigger battery, etc.

I mean it would appear that the Playstation and Xbox have already adopted that formula of sequential upgrades. I'm for it too, though. I'd much rather that than keep ports to PC locked at the same base-level of the 360's hardware like they were for nearly a decade Xp

I don't disagree. I'm just thinking-in-writing. Plus... it wouldn't totally be out of Nintendo's weird decision making- they had some DS games that only worked with DSi and up, for example.

My overall bet is something that does 1080p undocked. Or- dock upgrade that allows stronger games on TV but not handheld. Second one is probably not very likely though.
