Just received the charger today. It's works in docked mode. Played zelda and tested these amiibo cards that arrived together with the charger.

I don't see why the game graphics has to be 16-bits. The same exact levels and gameplay can be easily done with modern graphics, like Crash Bandicoot N' sane trilogy demonstrated. I guess the good thing is the Switch is capable of handling the graphics.

um...

i think Sega did that. with Sonic Episode 4.



the 3D with 2D gameplay. there is something wrong with the frame rate.
with all the setbacks, Sega really needs to stop screwing their own mascot.

and it is much easier +cheaper to port older games since the team behind this one already done the excellent ports on mobile devices.

Managed to play 11 matches without any connection issues on Singtel using my phone as a hotspot. I think those 11 matches used about 140mb of data.

Sonic Mania is not a port though. It's a new game, with new levels. It does revisit some of the old levels but new paths were added. So technically they could just use a new engine to build the whole game. Imagine a new Crash Bandicoot game, with newly designed levels, using the N Sane Trilogy engine. It's probably cheaper to make this game 16-bit (just like that episodic Sonic series) but for new generation appeal and bringing the franchise into the future, they should go with modern graphics. Crash is well positioned to make that move forward, Sonic is still rehashing the past.

Nah they just didn't have much faith in outsiders (sonic mania is made by 3rd party developer not team sonic), hence the budgeted release. It would be ironic and a big slap in the face if sonic forces reviews and sales are worse than sonic mania (highly likely since its the same dev team that has failed again and again).
