Sure thing, let’s dive into this—it’s about Gex and his comeback. Or release, whatever you wanna call it. Anyway, there’s this game bundle, three in one, slamming into the Nintendo Switch lineup. They’ve been mucking about with Gex again, digging up the old titles like crusty leftovers from the back of the fridge.
We’re talking about Gex. Yeah, that gecko with sass. First, you’ve got the straightforward 2D jump-around, "Gex," and then it leaps into the 3D era with "Gex: Enter the Gecko" and "Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko." You know, the latter ones where you bounce in all dimensions—vertigo might as well be included. Oh, and some newfangled tweaks snuck in like Rewind and Save Anywhere. (Why didn’t we have that back in the day? Oh right, life was tough.)
Now, here’s the kicker: the two 3D adventures morph into full 16:9 splendor. Analogue control is now real 360-degree movement. Imagine that! I tried it once on a rollercoaster —well, never mind, story for later.
Here’s the snazzy part, or at least they think it’s snazzy. They’re rolling out three physical pieces of glory to commemorate Gex’s so-called illustrious days. Total nostalgia trip, basically:
Standard Stuff ($39.99 MSRP) — Pretty basic; you’ve got your game, case, the works.
Classic Collectible ($74.99 MSRP) — Juices it up with a Steelbook, poster, and a few musical tunes. Retro box vibes too.
Tail Time Extravaganza ($199.99 MSRP) — Take everything before and toss in a big inflatable Gex (no, really!), a statue which’ll probably end up being a dust magnet, and trading cards. Have I mentioned the jazzy pin and soundtrack chaos? It’s like they raided Gex’s closet.
So, what’s the timeline here? June 16, 2025, marks the digital leap onto Nintendo eShop. Physical goodies? Those are trailing behind, arriving “later in 2025.” Pre-orders are up for grabs until July 6, 2025. Just a heads-up in case you’re feeling nostalgic—or, you know, want a gecko statue for absolutely no reason at all.
And… trailer? Oh, they’ve got something, probably on YouTube-tube—where else? But yeah, check it out if watching geckos doing its thing lures you in.
