@BobaTheFett Oh my word, right!?! The last badge... oh my. Thank goodness on that last gap there was someone that left a standie right on the edge. If they hadn't, I would have burned through the last of my lives at gotten a Game Over.
Once upon a time, I tried playing Super Mario Bros. 3 without save-states. Yeah, in those later levels, I cut that out real quick. I'm an adult and I do not have the time to start the whole world over every single time I get a game over.
The games very, though. The better talking point would be hardest level in Mario. The very final level in Super Mario 3D World completely broke. I had to come to terms with the fact that my thumbs aren't quick enough to beat that level.
Pre-ordered it over a month ago. After the first trailer dropped, I immediately knew this was going to be a magnificent game. I didn't need anymore convincing.
Is it possible that there won't be backward compatibility? Sure. Would I be shocked? Yeah, kinda, if I'm being honest. Nintendo sold more software for the Switch than any other Nintendo console by a mile. I think they might be shooting themselves in the foot if they don't because so many people have their digital libraries on the Switch now.
Platformers. I can always fall back on a platformer as a palette cleaner. Super Mario 64, Celeste, Super Mario Bros., and A Hat in Time are my go-to games.
It's too late. Knowing that Unity has the ability and willingness to implement a change like this has completely destroyed any trust developers and publishers had with them.
@Guybrush20X6 I couldn't agree more. Not just because I do, but how could I not with your blue hair? You gotta have blue hair. And then there's the mouth. Real tiny when it's closes. Ridiculously huge when it's open.
Well, s***... and that's the end of Unity. I've been looking into Master's programs for video game direction and design and I was starting to dip my toes into Unity. Well, guess not! Guess I'm using Unreal instead. Absolutely no way am I going to support this greedy practice.
When I was in school, I was severely strapped for cash. I sold, and it pains me to say this, Majora's Mask, the Majora's Mask Guide booklet, Mario Galaxy, and my Gamecube. I have been kicking myself for years and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
This was me with the game Wacky Wheels. For a few years, I thought I might have dreamt it, but I distinctly remembered playing as and loving the shark character was I was a little kid. I finally found it just a couple of years ago. I will say, though, it aged horribly. Hahaha!
I'll say it, it's too expensive. $40 is a lot, especially when they're competing for our money during one of the best years in gaming. $20, or even $30 would have been a much more compelling price tag.
I love how other gaming news outlets are like, "Will they/won't they buy Call of Duty," or "Gamers are furious that a game that looks like Assassin's Creed 37 won't run at 60 fps." And then you come here and people are actually having fun playing video games.

Re: Feature: Nintendo eShop Selects - July 2023
Wait, am I crazy? Didn't Disney Illusion Island come out in July? It didn't even make the list.
Re: Talking Point: Which Nintendo IP Should 'Switch 2' Launch With?
Metroid Prime 4 and show off everything those new system can do. That would be a Day 1 purchase for me.
Re: UK Charts: Disney Illusion Island Makes A Lukewarm Debut As FIFA 23 Dominates
I'll say it, it's too expensive. $40 is a lot, especially when they're competing for our money during one of the best years in gaming. $20, or even $30 would have been a much more compelling price tag.

Re: Feature: Nintendo eShop Selects - June 2023

Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Link Figma Unveiled
Any other UX designers get thrown off by "Figma" in the title?
