Didn't this have some issues in terms of "modernisation"?

At least that's what I remember from around the time of the switch launch which I'd whyi didn't buy it for the switch.

Will wishlist and see if any community mods pop up that rectify things.

I hated these ports so much on the Switch, I sincerely hope these guys fix the game I loved so much for GameCube.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Does this use AI-Upscaling? These games have pre-rendered backgrounds IIRC.

Wouldn’t be surprised if we saw this during tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct.

What’s wrong with the ports? Reviews were fairly positive.
Something something some joke about women was removed. It was a fairly tame joke but also not really a huge deal (its from some item description iirc a book)

Thats what I remember anyway could be more.

Bad performance, stuttery vertical and horizontal camera movement, horrid looking remade character models, japanese VA only, wrong combo timings, gameplay bugs where diagonals did not register at launch - so you cannot battle properly. This is just to name a few.

A very low effort port - It gives you the feeling of a rushed mobile game.

If you really care about these games, play the originals on a GC or emulate in Dolphin

Well, damn, that’s pretty horrid. Doubt Steam release would be better with anything other than performance.

This collection is on sale on Steam atm for $34.99. Anyone know if they fixed the issues or is it worth getting the remaster?

I went ahead and got it on cdkeys shortly after posting that. I got it for Steam Deck and any QoL features are a plus. What’s interesting is how there’s an achievement for starting the game. It made me laugh.
