Broosh

My attendance to the GameStop Switch 2 event was a success! They had a good amount of extra consoles (about 50). So I'll have it by 11 tonight! Excited 😁🎉

I'll continue using my original Pro controller until the analogues drift beyond repair. So far it's been absolutely solid in both analogue inputs and battery life, and I haven't experienced whatever d-pad issues others seem to have major issues with.

I'll be spending the afternoon of the 4th at the local Gamestop hoping to nab an extra console...also refreshing the Costco website's bundle page around midnight if I don't...😣 Worst case, I get one later this year when there's more enticing releases.

Nobody was hurt? Give it time. Keep ignoring warnings and let darwinism do its thing.

Still waiting on my Nintendo store email...😞 I'm potentially (reluctantly) going to GameStop on the 4th to see if I can nab a potential extra unit since their stores may get extra.

About to blare Bede's battle theme and Gym Leader battle theme to work tomorrow 😆

I don't care if I get an email, it's fine! I'm just refreshing my inbox feverishly for fun...

I'm carving away at my ever growing backlog instead of buying day one releases. Life goes on, gaming will still be one of my largest hobbies. Buying new games immediately and pre-ordering will just be a forgotten hobby and I'm fine with that....unless that release starts with "Chibi" and ends with "Robo", I'll pre-order your entire overpriced stock 😏

...did we actually expect them to stop at Intergrade? That would be a confusing tactic.

Ah yes, I remember the PSP camera lol If they truly wanted face cam to be so strongly integrated into the chat design, it would be built into the system (Wii U says hi).
Edit: After now glancing previous comments I realized I'm late to the party 🤣

Now do this, but Monster Hunter! This is really neat though.

Opinion: It's Time to Get Rid of Opinion Articles 😏

@DanElectrode Highly doubtful considering the Switch 2's display is physically larger than the original.

It will pain me to trade in my current joycon with hall effect sticks that I painstakingly installed (so many small pieces). They are very nice, but I trust that these new analogues will be more reliable in general (at least compared to original joycon analogues).

Well I'm glad Miyazaki went into detail on the PvPvE aspects of the game. Sadly that means my hype is gone as this won't be for me, but Fromsoft is definitely trying new things between this and Nightreign. Looking forward to their next traditional single player-focused game!

Game key release, huh...man this Switch 2 reveal has been an emotional rollercoaster. Such highs and incredible lows. I don't know what to feel atm.

I just had a Jimmy Neutron brain blast moment. THIS is why they killed the gold coins system in the eShop. Consumers would have been making bank on these $80 USD purchases, ultimately giving them decent discounts on subsequent purchases. Nintendo doesn't want to benefit the consumer in any way here.

This would be a waste of $1, let alone any more than that. Should be a pack-in.

Thank goodness! Glad they aren't all paid upgrades. So it kinda mirrors the PlayStation 4-5 game upgrades.

One of the best games ever made, and the exact game you should use as an entry to the series. As someone who binged the series from 0-Infinite Wealth, I assure you its among the best (if not THE best entry).

Good thing this was followed by a barrage of amazing news, because that word PAID at the end of this trailer was a spit in the face 💀

I almost cried when I saw my little guy Chibi-Robo on screen! 😭 Not to mention online F-Zero GX, both (very rare/expensive) Pokemon games, Soulcalibur, and Fire Emblem! I'm awestruck. I don't care that it's part of a subscription, Chibi still got recognized 🥹

Sony fanboys gonna be real mad at this (I expect it'll likely be a timed exclusive anyways) 😂 Seriously looks amazing, and I'm a big Fromsoft fan as it is!

I can't believe they are doing this! I love the first Air Ride so much, I'm still in disbelief 😭❤️

Incredible. DK is so back. I can't wait!

Hopefully a potential FF9 Remake doesn't completely alter and/or overcomplicate the existing plotline, stuff in a bunch of unnecessary generic open world padding, alter the combat, and dump in an obscene amount of sighing into the dialogue...😏

@Ulysses Oh no doubt, this was a fandom overreaction from the start and I saw that a mile away 😂 My comment was more directed at the reaction to his tweet, not the tweet itself.

Truly was a misdirect. I too want Kid Icarus to come back...maybe on Switch 2 😔

The Miis are alive. Pretty wild. Here's hoping Switch 2's Mii Maker isn't so soulless.

Nintendo is cooking for sure! 😵 Time to throw out wild speculations. Monster Hunter classic collection! The return of Chibi-Robo?! 😏

I highly doubt the Steam Deck will run this game, and even if it manages to pull it off, it'll be on the most potato visual settings possible (while running in hair dryer mode). So while we don't know Switch 2 specs yet, I think that's a decently fair benchmark to compare it to. Better to kick back and wait for a timed switch exclusive MH title instead 😎

They have some cool art for sure, even if one of the cards is kinda spreading misinformation 😅 No I will not elaborate 👀

But my Wii copy has the funny watermark cover and...I already own it, so why would I double dip? Kamiya is a silly fellow. Too bad I'm no longer on X, then I could get blocked by him for saying this.

Not pre-ordering, but I enjoyed this on 3DS, so I'll get it later down the line (and at a discount).

Loved this game on Vita, buying day one on Steam! It's a slow burn at the start, really limits what you can do and punishes you for everything, but once you unlock fast travel the pacing improves.

I only bust them out for Skyward Sword, otherwise nope! And even then, it's just for the added grip, not the strap itself.

I specifically bought a Wii copy of Okami for my shelf because of the IGN watermark incident 😅 No doubt Japan has an overall better design though.

I admit I hadn't booted the original app in some time (especially since New Horizons released), but I'm all for app preservation, so I supported this. Now that my wife has more or less taken over my New Horizons island, I'll return to the RV life 😉

I'm actually most excited for this "quick try" feature 😅 Making attempts to speedrun levels sounds like it'll be more seamless!

@darkswabber @Sonicka Fair points both! My comment was more of a joke, hence the ace attorney quote 😅 But that does explain it for sure.

HOLD IT! From the M&L Brothership Nintendolife review: "Easily the best Mario and Luigi RPG yet." Proceeds to get outranked by every other Mario and Luigi game 🤔 Not saying the ranking is necessarily wrong (I haven't played all of the M&L games personally), but I smell a contradiction 🤨

Crazy to think how this game would have faded to obscurity if they didn't decide to emulate PUBG.

As a Banana Rumble skeptic on release, I can say with confidence this game has solid single player content. I was expecting to be annoyed by the spin-dash, but it's implemented well and makes finding speedrun tactics very fun (something I didn't dabble too much with on the original two games considering the lives limit)!

Somebody got tired of twinking on Dark Souls and decided Mario Party players are their next victims 😆 When I first played Jamboree last weekend I thought to myself "how annoying would it be if you maxed out the dice rolling time on every turn" (I swear ITS NOT ME 😭).

I'll definitely be leaning towards Steam or PS5 on this one, but I remember it being a great time back in the day. Cool protag, funny writing. The gameplay and level design can be hit or miss, but I love Grasshopper games too much to care. Maybe we'll see a remaster of Killer is Dead next (my favorite next to No More Heroes)?

I dig it, this box art rips. I'll be buying on Steam, but if I was getting it on console this would be an awesome case for the shelf!

Reminds me of the Newgrounds flash games I played as a kid 😅

This went from hype to bummer after seeing the random selection on offer here. I suppose if you just want to reach into the SNK hat and get a taste of their library, this is for you. For anyone looking for a comprehensive collection, this isn't it.

This show is so campy and fun! Makes me want to bust out my DVD copy. I remember I got it from an old point redemption program online, maybe it was GameStop Rewards?

I wasn't interested in the original game, but fan games have proven rogue elements in Pokemon work very well. So I'll keep an eye on this one!
