The answer to that is likely cost. Nintendo wants the NES Classic to be an affordable item to fill the void in their holiday shopping season line up. Putting some games on it to cover any customer who can’t buy games online and also adding networking and larger rewritable storage, plus programming their infrastructure…

What really bugs me about their reasoning for the art style is the fact that the Federation troopers are piloting minimechs. Couldn’t they have made the troopers themselves have more normal proprotions? The mechs and enemies don’t look too bad in this art style, but seeing the Federation soldiers with giant heads…

I really don’t see how people say Other M’s gameplay was at least decent. They seem to forget all of the complaints you list and let nostalgia take over until they’re smiling with glee at being able to somewhat use the speed booster and original space jump in 3D.

They really do need to either retcon or just ignore Other M from here on out. I’m quite partial to the theory Other M is just a hyperspace nightmate Samus had after the events of Fusion. Lots of similar elements between the two to back that up.

I never liked the Other M style, either. It lacks the details of the older designs that made them look like an actual machine that could be worn. The Other M suit screams budget Halloween costume.

It is a bit grabby though, right?

I don’t think Telsa will be competing for long haul market share anytime soon. The batteries are just too heavy to compete with diesel and CNG powerplants that currently have much longer ranges. Team drivers won’t even look at something with such a pitiful range as the 250 mile estimate.
