they also announced this

I love collecting amiibo, and that Zelda amiibo is possibly one of my favourites so far, but I have to say it's kinda unfortunate they would lock a convenience feature like that behind amiibo.

@Slowdive oh nothing much...

just locking an important new feature behind a paywall

@Slowdive Just hope this Amiibo isn’t going to be incredibly limited and therefore impossible to find in typical Nintendo style.

Spanky's Quest was the one that caught my eye there, but damn does that little dude move slowly.

More Vita ports on the way, lol. Looks like a remaster of Demon Gaze is coming to the Switch.

Oh, nice, @Ralizah.... I'll probably get that to replay, then

(random)

So I'm about five hours into Little Busters and I'm kind of bored with it. The backdrop of school friends forming a baseball team, with characters progressing statistically as they "fight" each other 1-on-1 on the side with whatever objects they find laying around? Sluggish pace, uninteresting characters, seemingly censored art (as this is suppose to be an eroge series), etc. I think I would have to consume NoDoz caffeine pills if I were to continue this vn because this experience is causing me to nod off.

I wanted an entertaining story, not a sleep-aid.

@Blooper987 another reason for me to pass on this disapointing port of Skyward Sword,lock a QOL improvements such as this behind a Amiibo? EA is now proud of you Nintendo and @Slowdrive is Bandai Namco trying to hint Klonoa migh return on consoles or be one of the final 2 characters of Super Smash Bros Ultimate?

the Zelda e Loftwing Amiibo can only be used in Legend of Zelda Skyward Sword HD and what happened to a potencial Super Mario Odyssey 2, now that Nintendo EPD tokyo is developing a new Donkey Kong game?

@Giancarlothomaz that’s not true, it depends on the game as some accept any and all Amiibo.

In any case I wouldn’t be shocked BOTW2 makes use of it like how BOTW used Amiibo to unlock Link’s old tunic from various games.

I expect it to be recognized as a generic Zelda in other games.

@Slowdive I saw that tweet and made my intentions known in the poll. Can’t work out if they are hinting at something happening or just trying to get an idea of whether there’s enough interest to bring the franchise back.

@Slowdive Thanks - will cover this on the site with a credit to you

@Slowdive The graphics could do with a touch up but it does looks alright and I might get it if it did come to the Switch.

Although if I did I would instantly start complaining about the London track, the landmarks are in the wrong places which annoys me more than the soundtrack.

Congrats, you've made it to the big leagues!

Capcom anounce a Presentation on may 26th, to detail, Monster Hunter Rise 3.0 update and Monster Hunter Stories:Wing of Ruin.

I can't remember but wasn't Ni no Kuni 2 rubbish or am I thinking of one of the mobile games?

@Slowdive

I assumed Bamco were bottling that announcement for E3.

Surprising.

No idea what mobile game you might be thinking of, @jump.... But Ni No Kuni 2 is great! Perhaps you mean the 1st was so good that the sequel does seem to be not quite as good?
