Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack updated with Golden Axe II, Alien Storm, Columns, and Virtua Fighter 2

Of course this is not the Saturn or arcade version of Virtua Fighter 2, much to the dismay of many of you reading, I’m sure.
Virtua Fighter 2 Genesis (1996) is a 2D conversion of the 3D fighter that plays much closer to the original than you might think. It’s not without its cutbacks, however. Most of the stages are gone and Virtua Fighter 2’s new characters, Shun-Di and Lion Rafale, are excluded from the Genesis game.
All that said, this is still a Virtua Fighter game through and through, so the remaining characters’ moves are still there and executed exactly as you remember from the ...

Love Golden Axe cosplay. Not just because of seeing girls in skimpy warrior bikinis but simply that Golden Axe still has a fanbase despite being dry since Beastriders.

It's also thanks to Storm Collectibles that kept producing toys based on Golden Axe to keep fans still get Golden Axe-related thing every year.

A new Golden Axe game would do the franchise a world of good.

The maker of Streets of Rage 4 is already interested but if SEGA allowed it to be done by them then it would be in 2D.
While it feels like a stepback from Beastrider (which was in 3D) I don't really mind though.

I don't mind the step back at all. As much as I would love a Golden Axe game on tier with God of War: Ragnarok or Elden Ring, a GOlden Axe game based on it's roots is just as good.

It's like "Golden Axe Mania" ... or may be "Golden Axe All-Star".

I just remembered something... did you kow in Golden Axe Warrior the currency in the game was called "horns"? The currency symbol did depict a horn.

I mean can you imagine wanting to buy an expensive item and have to carry all those horns on you?


If hypothetically speaking horns are a canon currency in Yuria, do you think they simply name coins after them or something? I mean carrying around all those horns would be a hassle.
