September going to kill me. I'm still shocked by the fact that the past 2 years we got Crash, a full classic Sonic game, and now Spyro. My childhood is back in full force...

It has become a meme because every game is perfect on Switch.
I hope Toys For Bob actually listen to fans and patch the game if the hitboxes feel off or other minor issues.
Thats my biggest problem with the Crash Trilogy is that Vicarious never patched it.

It shits up a thread with multiple posts and people responding to each other because they want a certain game on their favorite platform, and that's not what this thread is about.
Neat! One of my favorite genres so I'll definitely consider picking this up at that price/content point.
I don't know why people keep giving Laura Kate Dale the benefit of the doubt when it comes to "leaks". They're constantly wrong.
So Kotaku was wrong.
In all fairness, the Crash Trilogy is coming to Switch, so I don't see why this is an unreasonable request from Switch owners. These games aren't any more intense than Crash from a technical standpoint. They're leaving money on the table.
I'm probably one of the only people on this forum who never played any of the Spyro games (unless Skylanders 1 counts), so I'll be excited to check them out for the first time in HD glory.
Absolutely incredible Wow. I cannot wait for this. The Spyro games were some of my absolute favorite growing up. They really nailed the look, IMO.
Looks so fucking amazing. All the footage from the trailer was from the first game right? I can't wait to see how Spyro 2 and 3 look.
It's not unreasonable but Spyro is a much more open game than Crash is. I bet it's more technically intensive than Crash, but that's just a guess. Cart size may also be an issue as I'm told Spyro games are much bigger than Crash games.
Your asking this on NintendoEra gaming forum? For shame!
Looks slick, but DQXI and the Destiny 2 expansion is going to take up ALL of my gaming time come Sept....
Basically replace Switch with PC and it's the same...
I really hoped for a PC verison in Sept...
Feels like Activision are gonna see how Crash sells on PC (And maybe Switch) before committing to Spyro.
https://blog.us.playstation.com/201...-reignited-trilogy-soars-to-ps4-september-21/Updating a Classic
Remastering a classic is a unique undertaking for a game developer – unlike the creation of a new game where you have to find the fun, you're starting with a game that already has proven, time-tested fun. The real challenge lies in how to remaster a beloved classic in such a way that is true to the spirit and feel of the original while also maximizing fidelity (art, animation, visual effects, sound effects, music, controls) and integrating quality-of-life improvements that modern players expect (analog stick camera control, auto-save system, more fast-travel options, etc.).
Staying True
Given the intense passion the fans have for the original trilogy, we are approaching development with reverence—a deep respect for all the decisions that went into making the original games. In the interest of getting the feel right, one of the first things we agreed upon internally was that Spyro's original movement metrics — speeds and accelerations for walking, running, jumping, charging, gliding, flying, swimming, hovering, and more – should be matched as closely as possible. And in a similar vein, an authentic recreation of the platforming gameplay throughout the expansive and enchanted levels of the original trilogy would require the dimensions and collision details of the world geometry to come very close to matching the originals. Needless to say, the Dragon Realms of 2018 utilize considerably more polygons than their 1998 counterparts.
Engineering Magic
In the interest of recapturing the enchanted details from the classic trilogy in fine detail, our programming team set out to magically slurp inspiration directly from the original games. Spyroscope was born. This internally developed tool sends fairies into the original games who convert game details into a format that designers can easily interpret, allowing for extremely accurate game object placement and motion. Ultimately, we were also able to leverage many of the original assets such as level models, level collision, animated objects, character models, music, game text, and game sounds through a combination of other in-house tools and a few payments to Moneybags.
I think the implication is that the poster is waiting to see if they come to Switch or PC, rather than assuming this is it.
There's no such thing as multiplat timed exclusivity. Sony and Microsoft are not joining forces and wallets to keep this game out of switch. The platforms of choice in this case are entirely up to the developer/publisher unlike crash where the game was on PS4 (and PS4 only) due to a deal.
Has there been a update for the N Sane Trilogy... Spyro demo?????...
They remade the game, its a remake. Remaster is just a marketing word now
cant nintendo just make 24gb carts? dont think its cardridge related tho crash was 20gb on ps4
That would be logical if the xbox one and pc version of crash weren't launching on the same day as switch

yes it is for the Xbox! I thought that I was screwed there for a second, as I really did not want to buy a PS4. Today is a magical day tbh.
