Yeah if I were smarter and knew more about electronics I might be able to figure out what those ports are and everything, but oh well.  I've got too many other games to play right now.  Such is the life of a game reviewer. :)

Welcome to the Party, Pal!

Glad you got a Switch.  I can't imagine played Zelda as a download title, though!

Right now I've got ARMS and Splatoon 2, but I haven't played them yet.  I've been super busy at work!

No they don't look like NES or SNES ports, and they don't look like USB ports either.

I scanned QR codes to get Miis of video game characters on my team.  So my team was my Mii, Zelda, Samus, and Cammy.

I tried that last night.  Couldn't get it to work.

RETROspective: Video Game Compilations

I love video game collections.

The Namco Museum series on the PSOne is one of my top five favorite games of all time.  Sure eash CD only has 4 to 6 games on it, but they make up for it in presentation.  Remember when you were a kid and would make up your own dream treehouse, fort, mansion, etc.?  Well as a kid I imagined an amusement park with themed rooms where you can play arcade games and see memorabilia from each one.  What they did with the 3-D explorable museum in the PSOne Namco Museum games is almost exactly what I imagined as a child.  Can you see how cool that is?  While it's always better to have more games on a collection, sometimes a good presentation will make your collection just as memorable.

Another great collection that is missing from your list is Activision Anthology.  This had pretty much every one of Activision's games on the Atari 2600 playalbe on the PS2 (there were also versions available for PC and PSP I think).  Not only did you get a bunch of actually fun games for the 2600 (most 2600 games not from Aciivision I didn't find very fun), but you got all sorts of cool extras, too.  You could view game commercials, earn virtual badges like the ones they used to give out if you got a high score and mailed a picture to Activision, and best of all, it al lhad a great 80's song soundtrack playing in the background!   I think this is one of the few collections that rivals the quality of the PSOne Namco Museums.

Not really anything special, but another neat collection was the Data East one for the Wii.  Also, Taito Legends 1 and 2 had tons of great Taito arcades games on them.

I hope Namco sends me a review code for the new Namco Museum game because it costs 30 bucks and while it does have Pac-Man Vs. on it, I don't think it's going to be worth 30 bucks.

It feels like you really have to mash square on the buttons to make sure they activate.  It's really frustrating, too, because if the console had good controllers, it would be a pretty slick little game system.

I hope I can get the SNES mini, too.  I liked the NES, but I REALLY liked the SNES!

That wouldn't surprise me.  Nintendo probably won't make enough of that one either.
