Played both on my MegaDrive back in the days, I don't care for a remaster.
...
...
...gh... the nostalgia is so strong...m..maybe I do care a little...

@Manah That's another problem isn't it?
Microtransactions got to such a crazy point where many unresonable prices and services are considered very fair and not excessive at all, not just by the industry, but also by many customers.

So, if I got it right, for investors and the Wall Street journal, the concept of "keeping the players happy and in the conditions of keep trusting the company in the future" only translate to "this company is not willing to make money".

Gee... this is such a wrong and broken concept that I don't even know how to react...

Sounds like a true shame, two awesome games badly ported.
Even worse, this is not something rare to hear.

Luckily I avoided this collection for a lack of space in my backlog, maybe, by the time I can get around to buy and play it, some patches will be released.

Literally been checking the download updates for Europe in the last three years only in the hope that somehow we could finally get the first game here too.
I have the sad feeling I may have to give up on that hope now and start the next cycle of spending the next three-four years hoping that the sequel we'll be released in Europe.

@Reigestugatensho Whole Cake Island is the most recent complete arc in the manga and anime. Manga wise is also pretty much the arc after DressRosa (featured in Pirate Warriors 3). There is in theory a lot happening between the two arcs, but it's all setup for the Whole Cake Island arc and the arc that is currently running after it.

So that's how Whole Cake island looks like, I only follow the manga at this point so I didn't realize there was so much pink all around XD

Looks great anyway, definitly keeping an eye on this new entry of such a good warrior game and anime adaptation!

This game will surely be amazing, but this is unneccessary easy and wrong comparison.

You summon a monster, so it's like Pokemon!
You collect stuffs, so it's like Mario!

Guys, you are Platinum Games, we buy your games as soon as we see the logo, no need to use these cheap comparison tactics to get us on board XD

Finally an enemy team with a cause I can understand! XD

Go Marnie! Go Marnie!
Wait...What do you mean that as the player I'm supposed to beat Marnie and become the champion?!
Can't I join team Yell instead?...

@AtelierZac Yep, I know, it's a very fun well crafted game.
I'm playing it since yesterday, very happy I didn't trust the review.

Likely gonna skip the DLCs.
The game is turning out to be very fun, but Senran's DLC usually are on par with most game's DLC... meaning they feel overpriced for what they offer (at least imo).

Wrote a comment with my dissapointment, but had to delete it, I'm enough interest that I wanna give this game a chance regardless of the review's warnings. Let's hope I'm not making a wrong call XD;;;

EDIT: Just a quick edit to say I really didn't make a wrong call.
The game is super fun, it works well mechanically, the tables are colorful and interesting to play and of course it's filled with the "charm" of the Senran Kagura serie. If you enjoy pinball games and you have no problem with the fanservice style of the serie then this is just a super fun game worth to check out X3
(Honestly the only issue is the lack of tables, but like Pokemon pinball that had the same flow, the game is fun enough that you get too busy enjoying it to mind).

Funny how so many comments wonders why they called the name Turok, just read more carefully, this article itself was only made cause of that.

I know nothing about their intention, maybe the devs are huge Turok fans wishing to work with the IP, but it's clear the name alone already granted them 100000% more coverage then working with a different or new IP.

Those screenshots... This is a game I have been searching for quite some time, saw one of its scenes in a video, looked interesting, but I had no idea of its name and there are a LOT of games with similar concept/design/title around, some of these "walking simulators" are super hard to tell apart in the digital stores XD;;;

I'll keep it in mind now, maybe even buy it somewhere where it's cheaper (my apologies to the devs, but I gotta save both money and switch's SD space ^^;;; ).

@Kal_el_0724 What I meant. I wanna play Shield and fight Bea, so the problem of picking a version is getting real cause the two things don't match.

Great, the one thing I appreciated of Dynamax was that at least it was a gimmick not limiting the Pkmn you can count on, but NOPE seems like you gotta catch a specific specie of Pkmn to fully use its potential too...
Can't I just have a Pkmn game where I can build my party without a gimmick telling me that I'm missing out on something?! >.<

(Also I want to play Shield and fight Bea so the drama of version picking is starting to get serious for me now XD; )

Never been really interest in mods, but this cover a very important thing gaming is missing... a huge adventure starring Ashley!
Why we still don't have an official game doing this?! ;w;

I mean, Wayforward loves to push Shantae for Smash, so I wouldn't be surprised if they asked Trigger something like "Amazing trailer, but can you change the window to make the fans speculate she is coming to smash?".
It sound so dumb, but I really can't say they wouldn't do it XD

Finally!
It's so refreshing to see a developer listening to feedback, all the major issues I had with the game have been clearly addressed (like...I love those health bars for bosses and the extra sfx, it was so frustrating in the demo how I couldn't tell if I was doing anything to the bigger enemies).

I definitely have a little more interest back for the game, if anything I would really like to give it a second chance now.

Of course they are not linked!
Nintendo's project is focused on QoL, while Pokémon Sleep will be an app that let you dream that all the Pokémon have been added to Sword and Shield :3c

It's hard to believe how easily Banjo joined Smash, but I'm not gonna complain XD

Also, I don't think Sakurai realize that DQ has fans holding it in high regard also in the west, japanese fans are not the only ones he should feel nervous about~

I'm so confused...
There is so much wrong, but it's also so so cool ;w;

If only what he says in interview was reflected in the games...

Microtransactions done right, the importance of value, fairness, choice, and fun, all things that never showed in any EA game.

Ack, if someone is to blame for the huge hate and political mess around microtransactions is indeed EA and the other big companies that abused the system and broke it beyond any acceptable way. Kinda offensively funny how they are trying to save what they destroyed beyond any chance of salvation...

Well, gotta join those happy they waited to buy.
...and it feels so wrong, I forgot it came out yesterday and I was planning to buy it soon, why not buy at launch a game is becoming such a positive thing?
I should be here sad I'm losing on a great experience, not happy I avoided a poorly ported game they cared so little they needed some backlash to get proper resources on it...

@BensonUii I know, I was just try to keep my reply short XD
Indeed Amazon raised the price of TSR cause the Mediaworld's price raised after the No-Iva weekend.
And the GameStop offer I meantioned is indeed that one, buy two-pay the cheaper 5€. Fact is that TSR is between the games' on offer and with two 40€..pardon 40.95€ games, you would pretty much pay 22.9€ each game.

@BensonUii So that's why on amazon they already raised TSR price up by 5€, got it there and didn't know they were matching MediaWorld's prices XD

Still TSR is getting a lot of price bash: MediaWorld, Amazon and at Gamestop the game is part of their summer promotion (which can make it around 20€ there too depending the combo of games you buy).

@BensonUii I did instead, my copy of TSR should get delivered any second now OwO

Still surprised it got discounted so much so soon, can't avoid to wonder if CTR had anything to do with it...

I'm honestly super curious about the balance, there are pkmn that didn't get any changes since red and blue (and I fear that's the case to all pkmn actually) and some are even so weak that are unusuable in the game's story, let alone the competitive field XD

If they really worked hard to change things I'm personally all in to accept the limited pokedex (even if I'm biased by not having transfered any mon in the last gen), but the changes needs to be there.
If I'll catch a Pokemon (new or old) just to find out that no matter how much I like it, I can't use it for a lack of stats, moves, ability or even all of the above then I'll definitly join the outcry~

@Maroc If you look carefully it's - -117%, double negative, and indeed the discounted price is more then double the regular price XD;;;

No offense, these are good advices, but my constant dying in Zone 1 of Crypt of the Necrodancer as thought me as much and more (althought in a much more painful way XD).
I'm definitely tempted to buy Cadence eventually since everyone says it's not as unforgiving as the original, but I'm in no hurry, it's a good fun gameplay style, but not 100% for me.

The trailer kinda made me sad, all those free DLCs are great, but to think we used to consider most/all of those regular modes included to a game years ago...
Then again it's a perfect jab to Konami that indeed proved to be incline to turn into paid DLC anything that shouldn't even be "additional content" to begin with.

It's interesting that he mention balance and give each mon a chance to shine when that was never the case before. I love pokemon, but the balance between them is literally inexistent.

After this statement however I expect that the pokemon that will make a comeback in Sword and Shield will receive solid and drastic changes to their stats, moveset and so on.

If that's the case then I can totally understand why they had to make a step back, rebalancing 800+ characters in one shot is definitely out of any logic.
(But seriously? I doubt they did that, I'm sincerely ready to be dissapointed by finding again that many pokemon I like are so weak to be useless even in the main story -.-;;; )

@Lemmy_the_Koopa To be honest the whole Shantae sale is a bit of a goof up, the game and DLCs discounted amount to around the same price of the ultimate edition.
Maybe that's why they accidentally linked that version instead, it's the same as buying the one on sale afterall.

It may be my impression, but recently it seems like most major games get their plot twist, surprises and main events revealed in the trailers.

I can't even blame them, while I'm not a fan of spoilers, keeping anything "secret" just means lots of sites and leakers will spoil it anyway as soon as the first copies of the game start to be delivered a few weeks from the release.

Still I'm honestly unsure if call these information on the new FE "spoiler", but I can understand why the dev prefered to make a grand trailer out of it instead then pointlessy hope they could keep it secret for long.

@Ralizah I'm positive there was new content in the trailer..that or we both have flawed memories XD
But I really think there is something new or different in this remake, however I can't tell if it's a new area or just a couple of updated/altered mechanics.

@Ralizah It's funny, you don't like Awakenings despite it being your first Zelda game, yet I love it exactly for that reason.

But maybe I'm just too attached to the memories and nostalgia, which may also explain why I can't get into this remake at all; they can improve the gameplay, layout, maybe even add puzzles and challanges, but they can't improve my happy memories ;w;

@LaytonPuzzle27 Ah, I see you're a player of culture as well~

No, Nintendo, no!
Despite loving the original game, I'm not interested in this remake, so stop making super awesome extras to tempt me!

Honestly the trailer is amazing, but I had an hard time enjoying it since I didn't like the demo.
I hope/wish they will make avaiable a new demo before release, I definitly need to know if they fixed and changed some things around before considering a purchase.

Since I never played RE 5 or 6 I only know they are bad thanks to their reputation, but it definitely doesn't help their case that their reveal trailer was 100% focused on a different and much more appreciated game in the franchise.

Very interesting smart move from nintendo.
BOTW took way longer then expected to develop, no wonder they want to make the most out of it before moving to something completly new.

I wasn't sure if be hyped about this, but having the different heroes as alternative costumes is awesome, and cosmetic aside I'm super interest in their spell/magic attack, looks to have lots of variants and being fun to use.
Can't wait to hear more about this/these character/s.

Finally Finally Finally!
Waited these two to join smash for way too many years!
I think I had the dumbest-happiest smile ever while watching the reveal XD

Gee... I'm a fan of fanservice (fanfanservice?), but even I find this game to have poor taste >>;

Still fail to see why Sony is making all the "censorship required for the platform" fuss when even Nintendo stopped to force censorship.
May it be strict or dumb, but there is an age rating system already, no need to add on top of it.

"RPG-like" made me expect a little more even if I get the reference with the horror games made in engines like RPG maker, still the trailer was uninteresting, it lacked either gameplay or enough story bits if that's the focus.

A bit of a shame, honestly had to check the article after seeing the beutiful artwork; if anything I definitly love the art and the pixel graphics are not bad at all too.

I understand what Inaba means with the previous games being made in an "orthodox" way, but honestly I don't think that's a term I would apply to any game from Platinum.

Still that just rise the stakes on what they consider crazy I guess XD

@Preposterous Did you seriously just told me a rumour-spoiler at less then a week from the movie release?! O_O;;;

I just wanted to make a joke, no need to ruin the movie for me...

All these lies are starting to annoy me and I can't believe NintendoLife is helping to spread them.

Stop hiding it Ryan!
We all know you can actually transform into a Pikachu!
There is no multimillion dollars technology involved here!!!

On a side this could be a good thing, there's a lot properly questionable in the movie, but as a Sonic fan that manage to enjoy most bad lines and plots in the games, I can accept a lot of "weirdness" in a work with Sonic. But I need to see Sonic, something I can't recognize their model as.

Still... I'll be the first complaining about any redesign, even a perfect one, if any news about crunching the animators will come up. They took a design decision, one that clearly had an high chance to be disliked by fans, putting anyone under pressure cause of the expected internet backslash sounds ridiculus.

Oh! A chance to joke about Sega making a "Sonic The Movie The Game"!!!
Wait..it's already at the end of the article?! No fair!!! ;w;
