I've felt pretty done with the NES and SNES generations for a few years now. I guess I just figure I've had my whole life to play those games if I want to
It would be impossible to keep my gaming habits the same if I bought the switch 2. Between the game key cards, the price gouging, and the lack of storage space, nobody's going to be buying as much games as they bought for the switch 1
I hadn't considered whether that would have worked or not, but that would have been some pleasant news in what has otherwise been a dreary console launch.
@Samalik At least two of those is Konami crossing over with itself though. What cards are supposed to be based on castlevania? That's a crossover I could get behind
It was such a bummer to hear that the 3DS version botched basic movement of all things. Well anyways I downloaded the restoration patch on my 3ds so I guess the world is healing
@LadyCharlie Does it actually say somewhere in game that Madeline is trans? I loved my playthrough but didn't pick up on any representation until I heard people talking about it after the fact.
I'm happy to see a game that actually needed it get a remake. It might be time to start waiting for a switch 2 release if we're hearing about performance issues

Re: Talking Point: With Prices Rising, Are Your Gaming Habits Changing?
It would be impossible to keep my gaming habits the same if I bought the switch 2. Between the game key cards, the price gouging, and the lack of storage space, nobody's going to be buying as much games as they bought for the switch 1

Re: Random: Final Fantasy Is The Next Magic: The Gathering Crossover, Here's A First Look
@TimeGuy Because it has something to do with a franchise that famously decided to have nothing to do with Nintendo
Re: Random: Final Fantasy Is The Next Magic: The Gathering Crossover, Here's A First Look
@Samalik At least two of those is Konami crossing over with itself though. What cards are supposed to be based on castlevania? That's a crossover I could get behind
Re: Random: Final Fantasy Is The Next Magic: The Gathering Crossover, Here's A First Look
I'm glad Konami hasn't been desperate enough to add a bunch of crossovers to their game
