@Fizza I don't see why you wouldn't be able to as physical uses the same icons as digital. You can even delete the icons for physical and they'll come back when you put the cartridge in, though you have to download updates again. I did this with Let's Go Eevee and Yoshi when I was done and wouldn't go back to them for a while .

@BenjyK Basically with Majora's Mask, the entire world is a dungeon puzzle.

@Tyranexx NSMB2 is definitely the worst Mario game. People don't like Sunshine because it's really hard. And there are about 10 shine sprites that are basically impossible to do, probably because they ran out of development time. Even when you solve them you're not sure what you did. And I cannot for the life of me find the last 4 blue coins. But I think the personality, ambience, music, and the turbo nozzle more than make up for that.

Breath Of The Wild doesn't have music. Animal Crossing soundtrack is underwhelming. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has really great music and should be listed.

@-wc- One such example of this averaging being stupid is that Undertale is ranked higher than Mario Kart 8 and Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and literally all other Switch games that aren't Breath Of The Wild and Mario Odyssey. It's just a 5-hour long witty and memey RPG with some replay value. I enjoyed it, but it ain't a filet mignon of gaming.

@PhhhCough That's what I thought was the clear and obvious evolution of the series, but Pokemon prints money just by existing, so they have no reason to make it something great.

@shoeses Sorry, I thought it was gen 3 that added that. Also, it doesn't matter what they say, Arceus isn't a mainline game because it's neither a remake nor set in a new region, and there aren't 2 versions that you trade and battle between. I put it in the same category as Stadium, Colliseum, XD.

@PhhhCough The gameplay of Pokemon has not changed since Ruby & Sapphire on the GBA. There have been no upgrades, improvements, or reworks. Sun/Moon were decent, Sword/Shield were terrible. I didn't play Legends Of Arceus, but I want to because spin-off Pokemon games are typically better. I will never play mainline Pokemon games again, though. It's a complete waste of money, especially with Xenoblade Chronicles 3 coming.

@MetroidBossesRuinThe I 100% agree with your entire assessment. The EMMI were really not that hard to overcome, most times I got caught were purely from goofing off, and trying to master counter timing for them. The bosses like you said were the real block to progress and did cause me to quit for a few days at a time. They have way too much HP like in Monster Hunter, so they're far more boring than any EMMI. To contrast this, I've been playing through Zero Mission recently and those bosses are significantly easier.

Left Joy-Con has a teeny bit of drift, everything else is great. Not being sarcastic, I really have no problems with it other than the left stick.

@dkxcalibur They've actually regressed since X&Y too. Alpha Sapphire and Ruby I quit 20 hours in. I liked Sun & Moon enough to finish the main content, but played it way less than X&Y. And all the great improvements made in X&Y were ripped out in Sun & Moon and Sword/Shield. They don't even have the online trading exchange anymore... Sword/Shield was so bad that there is no way I'd even consider buying Scarlet/Violet.

@BloodyMurder The small Japanese lettering above the English does says "Waifu Kuesuto"... so probably just localization, trying to make it less weeby, even though that's their target audience.

@hakjie11 If it gets redesigned with a kickstand maybe, as is, it's a hard pass.

@RasandeRose These are all the reasons I don't see the use for it. It's way too bulky to be a portable, the Switch is kinda already at the upper limit of what's comfortable for prolonged use. So they should have leaned into the tabletop concept, which to me is the real selling point of the Switch.

@Darknilious As far as I know, there has never been a demo for any Atelier game. Now on whether or not you would enjoy them, I would say they're pretty middle of the row turn-based JRPGs. They are better than most JRPGs but there are still better ones. They're not as hard as like Shin Megami Tensei, Persona, or Bravely. For playtime, they're about 30 hours rather than 80+ hours, so that may be a plus.

@blindsquarel It's smaller in scope, so they could put more time and effort into the world design and ambience. It just feels fuller and more alive, imo.

The first Zelda I played was Windwaker, and I really loved it. After that I played Ocarina, and just could not get into and still can't, but Majora was absolutely amazing. It had a much smaller scope than Ocarina, but felt so much fuller. Every square inch was just filled with so much stuff and everything seemed to have an overarching connection.

@BlueMonk I'm not talking about me, I'm talking about the tendency of people like you to have a superiority complex on a site you would likely only be on because you share that hobby. You're basically saying, "I'm a gamer, but not like you losers, lol." It's like on Anime sites, where someone calls someone a weeaboo. It's a weeaboo site, everybody there is weeaboo. It makes no sense.

@BlueMonk Umm... isn't this a video game news site, you know for like people who want to waste their life playing video games?

@lacaras4 Are there any examples to date of good NFTs?

@Kazgykes Crypto and NFTs are a market manipulation scam by billionaires. Nobody is buying NFTs, but rich people to sell to rich people. These things have no real benefit to anybody, using ancient inefficient database protocols. They use 100 times the amount of power of a typical VISA transaction, so yes it is destroying the environment needlessly. It is only a tool for making money. If you have the money to trade NFTs go ahead, because that's the only use for it. If I was rich, I'd be doing it, because it works. It is truly the greatest scam of all time.

I believe the problem of the Wii U was being the successor of the Wii, which honestly wasn't that great. Yes, it sold fantastically, but I know every person that had a Gamecube and loved the Gamecube were sorely disappointed at the extent of the wiggle controls and the graphical ineptitude of the Wii. I went from Nintendo diehard to getting an XBOX 360 and a PS3. People were disillusioned by the Wii and every gamer I ever talked to felt the same. I bought the Wii U and loved it, but I'm a minority, many people refused to bite because of their experience with the Wii. I got a PS4 and sold it within 6 months, it didn't have anything special, so I only really play Switch, 3DS, GCN, and PS3 now.

Slime Rancher: Plortable Edition

@Ulysses Hatsune Miku is actually a retail product called a Vocaloid, which is a recorded vocal library that can be plugged into an audio DAW for music production. People write songs and use the vocal library for vocals. The Miku games feature these songs along with a music video made in the game's engine.
