YESS GBA updates!! My favorite platform and graphics style. The colors, the unique pixel art, it's so special. Great additions! I'm already mourning their eventual expiration on NSO, but how nice to see great third-party games added! And goodness if that Mr Driller 2 song featured in the trailer isn't a total ear worm! Moments like this is when I really wish they would add third-party albums to Nintendo Music.
@MeloMan Perhaps the construct Link is imbued with the soul of the Ancient Hero, which is the OG Link from even farther into the past than the Imprisoning War IIRC. Link himself is a perpetual reincarnation of the Ancient Hero, so it's not a big deal to me whichever kind of "Link" they go with in the end. But I do think it would be more interesting if they took this opportunity to give us a proper depiction of the Ancient Hero.
New trailer just uploaded to YouTube! Shows a bit of the Ancient Hero's gameplay and it looks amazing!
Crazy how this latest trailer showing the Ancient Hero soaring through the sky and weaving around the Gleeok instantly makes me go from "probably will get it" to "Take my money!!"
Love seeing stellar soundtracks added to Nintendo Music! Fingers crossed we get some more Animal Crossing soundtracks uploaded once they rev up marketing for the next AC game.
Definitely: FF7R, MHStories 3, Fire Emblem, Age of Imprisonment, Yoshi's Mysterious Book, Metroid Prime 4, Pokemon Legends ZA
Probably: Pokemon Pokopia, Mario Galaxy 2
Open-minded: Mario Tennis Fever, Kirby Air Riders, Dragon Quest VIIR, Dragon Quest I+II, Disgea 7
All things considered it was a pretty great lineup of games! Still a lot of great games to sink my teeth into while we wait for the next big 3D Mario/Zelda, Animal Crossing, Splatoon, 3D Kirby, the next big Monster Hunter release, etc.
Thankfully I have 3D All-Stars so I don't feel tempted by the bundle. I'll probably still buy Galaxy 2, but I might wait for a sale down to $29.99. Hopefully they coincide the movie promotion with a Mario Day sale, like they did during the first movie.
However, I can't be alone in feeling like watching the Super Mario Galaxy Movie hype followed by the Galaxy 1+2 reveal really made me hope for an amazing Galaxy 3 reveal trailer! That would have been so fun, and I felt pretty disappointed that the 40th anniversary coverage and the Galaxy theme did not coincide with a grand Galaxy 3 reveal.
Agree that I would have much preferred a ship flying segment over any sort of bike-riding open areas. Would much rather stitch each of the on-foot entranceways together and snip out all the open spaces. However, I also have been looking forward to MP4 all these years like many Metroid fans; I'm still willing to buy it on day 1 and give it a solid go.
I've been searching online for the Atelier game with the coziest villages to visit (out of the latest games released: Ryza 1-3, Sophie 2, Yumia, etc) but it seems to be a difficult question for elementary google searches to answer. Would anyone be able to enlighten me? I'm looking for the cutest buildings and the nicest music.
Woww that clip really sent me. Laughed out loud from sheer cringe! I agree with @PinderSchloss that the character was framed as humoring him in spite of one of the most unappealing requests imaginable.
