@JoeSooper There is something seriously wrong if this can't run on a Switch and needs a Switch 2.

Nintendo really has a way of picking the best shades of pink. If you just go google pink, you're given a barrage of the most flamboyant in-your-face colors in existence—just awful colors. But then there's Nintendo-pink. You got Kirby and Corsola, the DS Lite, 3DS, and Switch Lite. I was able to get a Pink DS Lite for $15 on eBay and it's so good. I want a Switch Lite, but I can't trust those joy-cons.

@Dev9417 Half of my yellow partners kept forgetting to ink the spawn area, which is like 10% of the field. We could have totally beaten rock if people weren't doing this. Anyway, I won 80% of my matches. I did have a great partner for about 5 matches but they were lost to "connection errors".

I really hate people that won't pay for the games they want to play during a console cycle, and especially when they want niche games. Weak sales is the reason we barely get F-Zero, Star Fox, Advance Wars, Metroid, Pikmin etc. If you must steal, stealing Mario Kart, Smash Bros., Pokemon etc. hurts no one. But if Advance Wars, Pikmin 4, and Metroid Prime 4 ever come out, and you want to play them, buy them, because you're not screwing the man, you're screwing the fans.

@iaLgan They were just saying that this is the second time Pokken was a game trial, which I don't remember it being one, because I've really wanted to play this. There were no other Pokemon game trials as far as I can remember.

@NeonPizza I found it, it's a 16 year old Toshiba. It says it has a maximum of 7ms of latency with game mode bringing it to around 5ms.

@NeonPizza I guess I just happen to have a really good TV despite it being 18 years old. The only game I ever had to put game mode on for was Smash Bros Ultimate, but that's because the online is pretty messed up.

@NeonPizza I don't believe you can tell the difference between something being off by 1/100 of a second. If I can play rhythm games on high difficulties with a Pro Controller, it's clearly not a big deal.

@Rykdrew Mario Kart 8 is not 13 years old. It is 8 years old. You must be thinking of Mario Kart Wii.

@Sonos They have that exact same sky bucket system in Disney World in Florida. They're really awesome, you feel like your flying, and it does make your life more full and happy. This London one seems to be a much shorter line though.

I have always really loved the Marill line. For Halloween one year, I found a Marill costume and was Marill for like 3-4 years. They're just really happy blue mouse bunnies. I love that Azumarill is a playable character in Pokemon Unite. I always wanted Marill to be an alternative skin for Jigglypuff in Smash.

Why is Maya's pixel hair green, but her anime hair is black??

I like Stardew Valley, but there is no shortage of farm games, to which I'm deeply invested in like 3-4 others, so this chocolate shop management feels like a more fresh direction. It's got Moonlighter vibes, but the Stardew guy is a way better developer. I loved the concept of Moonlighter, but that game was chock full of item management glitches. When the same item disappeared on me twice, I was done.

@thinkhector For me, I felt Kirby's Return To Dreamland was way better than Star Allies. But I also felt Star Allies was better than Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot. The way the backgrounds have a haze to create the illusion of depth of field really bugged me and came across as lazy. I also wish it was more like 64 or Forgotten Land, with level design that was more organic to the world around it. It's just 90's Kirby with a fresh coat of paint, but not as interesting. The way co-op was with using the enemies as characters was great though.

The best GCN games: Kirby Air Ride, F-Zero GX, Custom Robo, Paper Mario: TTYD, Pokemon Colosseum, Pokemon XD, etc. All of the good Mario Party's: 4, 5, 6, 7, & 8. All of the Tales Of games on PS2/PS3. Fantasy Life & basically the top 50 3DS games. Kirby 64 and Pokemon Stadium 2 on N64. Every Advance Wars.

@invictus4000 I've watched a lot of Anime, and I don't think there's actually a way to design it that doesn't look generic. People complain there's too much boob and butt in XC2, and that made it generic and pandering like a gatcha game. They get rid of 80% of that for XC3 and now people say it's generic. It still looks stylistically similar to XC1/2 though, which it should as it's a continuation of the same world.

@Grumblevolcano The whole time I thought Moo Moo Meadows was a remake of the N64 track. I completely forgot about Mario Kart Wii.

My first 2 games were Harvest Moon 64 and Super Mario 64. I was 6 years old, my older cousins who lived far away were staying with us for a week and they brought their N64. I mostly played Harvest Moon, as growing digital crops and raising digital chickens was mind-blowing to me. Also Super Mario 64 was a bit to complicated for me at the time.

Never heard of Klonoa, but I don't have a PS1. I played the demo yesterday and thought it was great. One of the better platformers I've played. Maybe I'll get it if I can clear out my backlog.

Straight up stole Edea from Bravely Second gave her an eyepatch and put her in their game. They even got the hair ribbon and the exact color of her outfit. And I'm totally okay with it.

Because the previous Zelda games were so realistic, eyeroll. It looks way closer to Zelda I, Link To The Past, Awakening, Ages/Seasons than OOT or MM. They make 3 "realistic" games, Zelda II, OOT, MM, and now that's standard Zelda graphics, lol.

@boxyguy It's because Sonic Team knows they don't have anything interesting to show.

@Alpha008 It would because the game looks boring. I like in the game play video where you go through this whole complicated process of climbing a tower just to grind down a rail and end up exactly where you were. I don't get it. I watched the fight against the sentient cylinder and was thinking, no Sonic game has managed to be this boring before.

@Kyloctopus Because it's an ice cream cone.

@PokemonDMG The first trailer had a map of Spain on the wall. It's Spain.

It looks far worse than I imagined. They should go back to the Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee visuals, those were at least tolerable.

@Miu Definitely agree with Stella Glow and Fantasy Life. I've yet to play Ever Oasis or Alliance Alive, though I do have them both.

Can't believe people don't like Nopons. They're the best.

@Ryu_Niiyama I understood what you were saying. You think Cadence integrates the rhythm aspect better, and it likely does. This is just a regular top-down action game with a rhythm gimmick. Like how Touhou Spell Bubble is a puzzle game with a rhythm gimmick. If you want a pure rhythm game, I agree Cadence is the better option.

@Ryu_Niiyama I haven't played cadence, but from what I've seen of it, the games aren't too similar. This is more like Gungeon, Diablo, or Hades minus the roguelite stuff. You match your attacks to the rhythm but not your movement.

I bought this on Friday, so far I have about 5 hours on it. It's a pretty fun game and the rhythm aspect is not overwhelmingly obnoxious. You just have to time your shots/slashes with the (crotchets) quarter notes. If you miss too many times your weapon has to cool down. The gameplay loop is good, but not groundbreaking. I'd give it a 7 or 8. It's got a lot of music too which is nice.

This is probably the best 2D game I ever played.

@Dav Then there's me who only bought it because of how insane Dunkey made it out to be, and I was not disappointed. I only wish I would have saw his video on Octopath Traveler before I bought that. That game was extremely disappointing.

@thedicemaster But we have the entire internet for that... and these drawings are like DeviantArt level bad...

@MARl0 You actually expected Wife Quest to be competently developed and not suck? Oof.

@Acampbell128 And so did Colosseum and probably 10+ other spin-offs. How about: Pokemon Channel, Pokemon Ranger series, Pokemon Stadium 1 and 2, Pokemon Battle Revolution... etc...? Clearly this list was not researched in the least.

@Cheez Someone said that the Pokemon Arceus sales number listed is from when it was only out for 2 weeks, so it's definitely way higher. Pokemon Conquest sold 1 million from what I can find, so yes it outsold that. And I'm sure it outsold Pokemon Coliseum, XD, Pokemon Channel, Hey You Pikachu!... etc. And in their annotation, they said not counting Crystal, Emerald, or Platinum. I'm calling BS on the whole thing. It's the worst selling if you ignore these 15 games, basically.

Because getting pissed off with only 3 hours into such a long game is stupid.

The last time a 16-Bit RPG looked amazing in the trailers, I ended up with Octopath Traveler, and was completely disappointed. I hope it's good.

@SeantheDon29 To me it looks a lot like the Torna one. It had them too but they were way easier to get because there were no core crystals. Just the 9 characters.

@Bret That game is like 300 hours, you barely even turned it on.

@ShadowofTwilight22 Wouldn't the PS3 version technically be the definitive edition?

@AndyC_MK111 To me Xenoblade is what you play while also rotating other games, because of the length and how much content they have. People rushing them in advance of 3's release is really dumb. It's more of a TV series than movies that can be binged super quick before the new sequel hits the theatres.

@HOUSE Better be Advance Wars.

@Gamer_Zeus Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Zelda: Breath Of The Wild are developed by Monolith and are probably some of the best looking games on the Switch. Also it's Anime styled graphics, what do you expect it to look like, Halo?

@AlexHarford I don't remember any tutorials in Fortnite. It just throws you in an arena and you have to live as long as possible. I only played it for 5 hours or so. It was just a run of the mill shooter, nothing particularly special about it other than it being free. And your character is basically randomly assigned to you at the beginning of each match which is really stupid.

@Wexter Shame on you for liking the SP versions, you're supposed to be complaining about how useless and unfun they are. It's like you think games are meant to be played or something.

@BeefSanta If you're looking for any more 7/10 Metroidvania type games, try Phoeonotopia Awakening. I put roughly 65 hours into it. Kind of a mix of Zelda II and BotW.

@TommyTendo Pokemon doesn't need Nuzlocke to be good, it just needs most trainers to actually have 5 or 6 Pokemon. And to add some kind of variable that checks the average level of your Pokemon so you can battle against a different loadout by your level. And they need to have the AI use real strategies instead of tailwhip spam.

@Snatcher These graphics are way more advanced than the last one though, which actually was on the 3DS. It looks like late Wii games or early PS3 games such as Tales Of Graces, Atelier Rorona, or Xenoblade Chronicles.
