I think they do from that image but I guess they also just had two buttons left over. There's also a ZR toggle to make them the face buttons.


That's ok then

Has anyone said how much the upgrade is for folks who have the standard online pass?

With Microsoft’s good relationship with Nintendo recently hoping Perfect Dark and Blast Corps might come to the service.

Banjo-Kazooie is confirmed and Perfect Dark is rumoured to be following soon.

I think we'll eventually get most Rare games bar Goldeneye because of the rights issues there.

I wonder if we’ll get Conker’s Bad Fur Day down the line as well then!

As for the price Miguel, it depends how long is left on your current subscription, when I looked at the price for me to upgrade today it was around £22, so it’ll vary from user to user.

jawa_ wrote:My upgrade price (for standard to expansion) is £31.91. I have two-and-a-half months left of my current standard membership so I think the reduced price is based upon a discount of £1.50 per month (£17.99/12)...

So, yeah, the discount from £34.99 will be about £1.50 for each month that you have left on your current standard sub, Miguel.

That'd be a sight! CBFD ran like a bag of spanners on emulators for years, I'd be stunned if they can get that working when they can't even get OoT right.

So… for Ocarina of Time at least this is the best ‘official’ version by a million miles bar there fog missing in select screenshots. Runs and looks amazing.

Banjo Kazooie and Perfect Dark are 4K on my series x so not pushed never like CBFD tho. Paper Mario TYD would be great.

I’ve played BK and CBFD on my Series X, they’ll look and perform better on there but as daft as it sounds, there will be something about playing them on a Nintendo platform again :wub:

People who still maintain Nintendo are the purveyors of video gaming quality are absolutely joking themselves. They are a joke of their former selves. Bad company supported by idiots.

That post is bait (hi Dual!).

Fwiw I think Nintendo are basically the same as always. Fun video games but a lot of money-grubbing.
