I hated it and I still don't like it. Started playing it after OoT on the GameCube and thought it was a huge let down. Couldn't play much of it at the time. Eventually I came back to it and I did enjoy the gameplay. Just didn't like that style. Twilight Princess really impressed me again so I was back to loving the series again and became my second favourite Zelda game. OoT is my first. The art style for Wind Waker puts me off from replaying it.
I hope we do see it. It's my second favourite Zelda game and i cba setting up the Wii U again. Would love to see a trio collection on the same cartridge. TP, Ocarina of Time and Wind Waker. I know OoT is already on the online app but it's not just my favourite Zelda game but one of my favourite games of all time so I really want a physical copy of it.
My favourite!! MK8 is a pretty damn great MK for a single character and I think that game could live on for years to come. What we need is a MK9 to be a brand new Double Dash that could could do the same.
I thought it was pretty obvious that it would get delayed into 2023. We hardly seen anything from it and no gameplay yet. They did mention before that they were aiming for 2022. When a game is being said that it's aiming for a certain time, expect a delay. So many games have been getting a delay. I'm happy with the Spring 2023 because that is a quieter time to game so I wouldn't have to worry about thinking about other games i want to play which is a distraction
I don't think Nintendo have anything to worry about but I do think they should buy some of their own but only to help grow their own library with their closest allies. PlatinumGames would be perfect. Would love to see more Astral Chain and Bayonetta.
If anything was to happen to some of the big publishers like Square Enix or Capcom or Bamco or even Konami, I think they would be left independent too which would allow Nintendo to continue working on exclusive deals. Whatever happens next, I just hope they all remain independent and do business as usual. It only means that Sony/MS would also profit from sales on the Switch.
I don't like the way things are going but we can't do anything about it. So all we can do is hope that the ones we like the most are safe. And should they be acquired then remain independent
I think it will slip into holiday 2023 at the earliest because of the pandemic. But even if it wasn't a thing, it could still get delayed for other reasons too like needing more time to improve something
Red/Blue/Yellow are my favourite. Have so many great memories from it that can't be replaced with anything new. Has my favourite Pokemon too.
Gold/Silver/Crystal is in second place and then X/Y and then ORAS.
Sun and Moon is just the absolute worst game out of the lot that I would prefer to pretend they didn't exist. Ultra Sun&Moon were an improvment but the games are still at the bottom of the list right above the original.
All the rest were GREAT! They just can't complete with the memories I have with R/B/Y but they all have their own great memories.
I can't help but feel the only reason why N64 is in that expansion is because they may not get the number of subscribers for the expansion for Sega games on it's own. Throwing Animal Crossing expansion in makes the deal look sweeter, but it really isn't. But let's be honest here, it's the N64 games we want and the main reason why most would even consider paying. I haven't seen anyone wanting or being excited for the Sega games and myself certainly isn't as I already have multiple Sega collections on modern consoles anyway.
I just wonder did Nintendo and Sega have to come to an agreement to get those Sega games on. Maybe Sega would have refused if Nintendo didn't put N64 in with it to get guaranteed numbers (to pay for the licences). Had they refused, maybe Nintendo would have added N64 to the current subscripion as intended.
Oh well, not for me. Plenty of other titles to play instead.
It's not for me. The Mega Drive games already have a couple collections and isn't there a Sonic Origins expected for 2022? So adding Sega to the service just isn't for me as i already have the other collections which contain games I want to play and we have no idea what will get added to that service in the long run. Could end up being the same titles.
I've stopped played Animal Crossing to make time for other games so I've long moved on now. So Animal Crossing: New Horizons does nothing for me apart from push the price up. And even if i did want it, it's better to just buy it outright than to keep paying a subscription every year.
I really want to play the N64 games but I'm not willing to pay double the price for that alone. It should have been included in the current subscription.
What happens in the long run when the game sales slows down or eventually hits a stop in the future, will they still cover the cost for the cloud to keep those games running for everyone that bought it? Where would they take the money from to cover the cost of running the servers? And even if they keep adding more games to the cloud to keep money rolling in for it, that would be piling up more GBs which could push them to pay more to buy more servers wouldn't it?
In 20 maybe 30 years, will anyone that bought the cloud games still have access to them? When we look at digital games, when they get removed from the store we are still able to download them and play them. But what happens to cloud games
Not for me. I would have bought them again if I could buy physical copies of them but I'm not buying to play on the cloud. Already have them for my PS4 so if I wanted to stream those games, I'd just remote play them to my phone/laptop instead and that's free. Will never buy a cloud game no matter what it is
It sounds like a some fans are just not well informed. I think Bayonetta 1 being multiplatform plays a part in that. And it certainly doesn't help with Bayonetta 1 being bundled with Vanquish for PS4 and Xbox One. So even there new fans will wonder about the sequels.
It reminds of the time when Sony got Street Fighter V for PlayStation and I still see a some Xbox fans being angry about it in some general chats now and then. They don't seem to understand it's Sony that helped fund it and the game wouldn't have been made without them. So it's not going to be the last we see of this
If it's made to play games as it's primary purpose, then it's a console no matter what size it is, how it looks or how it's used.
I don't call it console though, but it is one. I call it handheld, handheld console, portable console.
I call them for what they are, but they are all consoles. It's easier to know what we are talking about when we call the handheld ones by one of the names i've listed above.
The Switch is a unique console. Can call it console, home console, handheld console, portable console or hybrid console. Call it what you want, there is no wrong way about it. It's just easier to understand what we're talking about when we call it by console and handheld.
For the main consoles i call those console and home console
I stopped buying from Amazon a long time ago. They are a last resort only if I can't find what I'm looking for anywhere else. There's a lot of really good sites you can buy from that are actually cheaper. Base, TheGameCollection, SimplyGames, 365Games, ShopTo, MonsterShop, etc. The list goes on. No need for Prime, no need to worry about the £20 minimum spend. All good customer support too. And get the games on launch day (some retailers even do a day early if you're lucky!)
I think they just wanted to do one of the three different big games for this limited time edition. It wouldn't look right having Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario Galaxy and then adding it's seqel into the mix.
Perhaps after this limited time ends, they would release Super Mario 64 and Sunshine together. Then bundle Galaxy and Galaxy 2 together.
Sometimes i like the way Pokemon Go does it. It's what started my shiny hunt and now I want them all for a collection. What I don't like about it is that on community days they are far too common it ruins the enjoyment and excitement when you get one. Let's take Treecko for an example, I caught loads on community day. Felt absouletly nothing when I caught them. Just that they were another normal Pokemon ready to bin the rubbish ones. But today I caught one without it being community day and even though I had already caught loads, today's felt great to catch. I liked the rarity of it and it made me happy.
In Sword a couple ran into me. I didn't hunt for them. Those were great moments too. It's nice for the first couple times but if it happens more than a couple then it's too common. I have never caught a shiny in any main game before, certainly not even like that so they have made it a bit too easy.
So hard to pick between Squirtle and Totodile. Those are my favourite. I've always been a water picker since Red & Blue until Sun & Moon. Popplio looks cute but horrible when evolved which broke my traditional water streak.
