I had the drift problem on my left controller, it was always going up. I checked your guide on fixing the drift and the calibration sorted it out for me. So thanks for that and it might be worth bringing it to others attention again. It's worth a try.
I played disgaea 5 demo for like 3 hours and I enjoyed it but decided not to buy it. However, getting into the series would you guys suggest playing through 1- 5 in order if I were to take the plunge?
@Bloodmetal I just bought it with the sale too. It looked a lot like helbreath( a game I used to play in older days) so I took the plunge. It's a good game and touch wood I haven't had any bugs/crashes yet. I do however agree with the console heating up.
I have to say. Since Christmas until a recent update the match making and speed of waiting time between battle have dramatically improved. I'm very impressed with the online part of this game. I also feel like the player balance is ok. All in all a very polished game. Although I dread ROBO fights... but that's just me.
Remind me, isn't zodiac age a sequel to ff7? Aren't we supposed to get the original ff7? Also is there a release date for ff9? Pleased to be getting physical nonetheless
Each to their own. Surprised botw being up there considering it was a year old. Deserves it though as I put considerable amount of hours into it in 18'
@TreesenHauser just beat master mode on BOTW and began white lynel hunting. Found it very satisfying. Taking a break now though because the game can get a bit overwhelming how big it is. Onto smash and octopath!
10,000 points for putting frosty village on there. Good job. I was actually considering playing Mario kart 8 dx the other night with frosty village music in background
@TheBigK I actually have a spare shiny mankey if you want it. If your lets go eevee I could really do with an ekans for the dex. Of course I'll wait until your finished your hunt for shiny nido in case you break your combo.
My best mate used to main pikachu and I mained Mario. We had some battles on that game. In the end I opted to go with maining DK and power punching him off the screen. (Worked it out, a fully charged DK punch could knock pika when it's health was on at least 34%)
Despite let's go games being heavily advertised and lots of coverage prior release I was not particular bothered about the game. It wasn't until the NL review it made me realise I could actually like it. Pokemon blue was 1 of my favourites as a kid and to see it remastered and keeping the same music. I am completely lost in it. I feel like I'm 10year old again! Yes it's nostalgia talking. This is the game I'll be playing this weekend and over the Xmas holidays.
I enjoyed their mercenary sagas. But didn't get to finish them. I like their artwork and music is quite good too. Gutted I bought digitally and then it had a physical release not so long ago. Also I hope they check the item names this time, loads of mistakes in sagas. (Example, Leather buckle, and it's actually an ear ring!?)
@JamesR very impressive. I love that game. Giving it a break for now (at 89%). Jumped back into BOTW master mode, found love in treasure hunting the DLC.nit going to use them as it's a bit game breaking imo. Oh and also Dr. Mario
Donkey kong tropical freeze (switch). At 81% completion. Trying to find the secret passages. Seriously love this game. Looking forward to hard mode but at same time dreading it! Have a nice weekend all.
I intend on on going back to this game soon to collect my last 40 odd more moons. Jump rope is one of them. Such a good game. Makes me feel bad I missed the Mario galaxy 1 and 2.
@Darth_Goomba yes this. I would love to see New Vegas on switch. Without the glitches. Also while Bethesda is at it, Brink too! Perfect for switch! I can only wish!
I'm on the fence with this game. I loved Mario tennis 64. NL give this game an underwhelmed review score which kind of put me off. Now with the dust settled and a few patches here and there. What's the game like Now? Thanks
Finishing off collecting moons in mario odyssey. Just got the breakdown moon the other night (without cappy). 40 odd more moons to go and I can see the light.
Also donkey Kong tropical freeze. Focusing on getting 100% then perhaps 200% after that. Doubt that will happen haha.
As a returning nintendo player from n64 days and missed the nes era. I am delighted these games are coming back. I only heard of the main ones. But games like solomons key, ninja gaiden and a few others have really sparked my interest. Despite cost and limitations I am also excited about the nes controllers too.
Maybes I'm probably one of the few who feels we are getting an abundance of content for a reasonably small subscription price. I can however understand how people might feel slighted who have already played these games via nes mini/VC etc.
@Yosheel I am considering this game as I missed the Wii u era. I play portable exclusively, what are the problems in handheld mode? Is it unbearable? Thanks.
I have joined the trial. Buyer beware, I am sure it says in small print you have to cancel 48 hrs before subscription ends as they take your payment in advance. I only had limited time to play this morning so I might have mis-read it. Just to get it out there.
@BranJ0 ah man I can't wait. I think I've nearly finished the first one (just fought Jeanne after firing the rockets). I loved the previous level. I felt like I was playing lylat wars. Contemplating on perfecting my skills and getting platinum on all/most levels of just jumping straight into the 2nd one.
@BranJ0 I have bayo 2 also. And this is the reason I am playing the first 1 first so I can appreciate/notice the improvements between the 2. Instead of vice versa and feeling underwhelmed. Also intrigued by hollow knight too.
