@TheMelodiusRose Lol your guess is as good as mine. Pretty sure I just felt the need to throw shade but the reasoning could use work.
I've come around a little since 2019 and I got this on a sale. Playing it more like Vanquish has given me more appreciation for it, but I still think it has lots of issues. It's very alright. And yeah the performance is perfectly fine too.
Just picked up Resident Evil 6 on sale. I didn't have a blast with it back on PS4, but seeing videos after the fact shows apparently I need to play it like Vanquish. So time to try it again.
I'm imagining a scenario where you only have your starter, you and a friend run to different parts of the map and capture new 'Mon to fill your party, then you meet up and battle each other with your new team.
All I want to know now is will this use the old capture system only (sword/shield and previous) or also include Arceus's real-time PokeBall aiming/throwing in the wild as well...
REALLY hard to pick between Lost Planet and Viewtiful Joe. But considering how LP ended and they hit such a sweet spot with 2's design, they're much more likely to make a good Viewtiful Joe these days than they are a good Lost Planet.
That's actually pretty cool. It stinks that you can only get facts about a specific creature if you hand them to Blathers individually, so having that documented would definitely be worth a spot on the bookshelf.
I just binged Samus Returns and regret sleeping on that game on release. Such a good final boss! Now I'm giving Fusion Mode a shot. I'll keep this 3DS alive as long as possible.
I would have bought Tingle's Rosy Ruppeeland if they bothered to bring it to the US 😒...though like Kirby Squeak Squad, I would never want to utter the game's name aloud in public 😆
Still got my copy downloaded, luckily. The modernized control scheme and crouch walking make this my preferred port to revisit (despite the low framerate).
@Orokosaki Is it that bad? Playing via PC and PS5 myself, I haven't noticed major visual disparities between them (and when it comes to performance, the PS5 has been consistently better than my rig so far).
Sad as it is, sounds about right. When my wife and I were newly dating she bought me this game. As if her being beautiful and a genuinely good person wasn't great enough!
Yes. Slather my toenails in Piplup pheromones. Or uh...secretions? Either way, make them beautiful. They'll go nicely with my Eevee-coated fingernails.
One of my favorite parts of the Switch controller isn't even exclusive to the controller; it's the fact you can use the right stick to browse the UI. I wish more consoles embraced this as an option.
I've been having fun with the solo runs for the most part but the gyro is pretty whacky (though fine-tuning it via Settings does help a bit). I swear on one segment the reticle just froze for awhile, but that was only once out of like 3 playthroughs.
Kid Icarus and Metroid are definitely on my list before it's too late. Can anyone vouch for Ever Oasis? I played a demo and liked it okay, but progression seemed a tad slow.
I wouldn't trust Konami with taking out my trash, let alone giving MGS the time of day to port to modern consoles or any other kind of proper love. This is fake.
@iLikeUrAttitude Yeah right, next thing you'll say is Minecraft is still a thing...😉 Also this is a change I dig, because I certainly don't dig the building aspect. Definitely giving this another download.

Re: Kirby's Dream Buffet Announced For Switch, Looks A Lot Like Fall Guys
I'm confused and excited all at once. I'm down.
Re: Review: Resident Evil 6 - Not As Nightmarish As You Remember
@TheMelodiusRose Hey, the graphics hold up fine. Certain mechanics like the QTEs not so much, but you can't win em all.

Re: LEGO Confirms Rumours With New 18+ Bowser Set, Which You Can Actually Fight
If you're 17 or under this ISN'T for you and you CANNOT fathom building it!
Re: Whoops, Looks Like Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 Has Been Leaked
I'm surprised the last two made enough profits to warrant a third one!
Re: Review: Metal Max Xeno: Reborn - A Welcome Rebirth Despite Its Flaws
I actually had some fun with the original game on PS4 despite feeling like a budget game, so this will be an inevitable purchase.
Re: Oops, It Looks Like Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium's Line-Up Has Leaked
I am 100% buying whatever bundle involves the Mega Man power battle/fighters. I LOVE those games!
Re: Cuddle Up To These Stubbins 'Monster Hunter' Plushies On Your Next Quest
If I didn't literally order a plush from Pokemon Center this morning I would buy one! My timing is awful.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #98 - Super Mario Strikers
Why would they choose Concrete to represent football?
Re: Poll: Which Dormant Capcom Franchise Would You Like To See Return?

Re: Random: An Animal Crossing Nature Encyclopedia Is Releasing In Japan
That's actually pretty cool. It stinks that you can only get facts about a specific creature if you hand them to Blathers individually, so having that documented would definitely be worth a spot on the bookshelf.
Re: Suda51 Teases New Grasshopper Manufacture Game Reveal, Possibly Before The End Of 2022
I wonder if it will be Shadows of the Damned related? Considering some dialogue from TSA explaining their desire to re-release the game with some QOL.
Re: Fall Guys Is Going Free-To-Play, Comes To Switch This Summer With Cross-Play And A Huge Update
I had a decent time with this when it was free for PS+. This is exactly what they needed to do to bring me back. Very excited.
Re: Nintendo Reports That More 3DS Games Launched Last Year Than In 2020
I just binged Samus Returns and regret sleeping on that game on release. Such a good final boss! Now I'm giving Fusion Mode a shot. I'll keep this 3DS alive as long as possible.
Re: Get Your Funky Kong On With This Donkey Kong Country Ska Album
It's dangerous to skank (note- 'dance') around the banana hoard...too bad! I'm a rudie 😎 I love these VG cover albums!
Re: Video: Is Nintendo Switch Sports Really That Bad?
It doesn't seem so much as "bad" as it is "disappointing". A new entry to a series shouldn't make you pine for the previous games instead.
Re: Square Enix Extends Season One Of Chocobo GP
I'd be less annoyed by the pass system if progress could be made in any game mode, not exclusively online play.
Re: Get Up To 70% Off Final Fantasy Games On Switch In Square Enix's Golden Week Sale (North America)
I keep almost buying Chocobo Mystery Dungeon on sales like this...maybe this is the time?
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #94 - Super Castlevania IV
For Japan's box art they surprised Dracula with a camera when he least expected it.
Re: Mind-Bending Puzzle Game 'Superliminal' Bags A Physical Edition
If you haven't, definitely give this one a playthrough. I tried it on Game Pass out of curiosity and ended up playing to the credits in one sitting.
Re: Best Star Fox Games Of All Time
Adventures is so high, Guard is so low...goodness. You guys are brutal 😂
Re: Review In Progress: Nintendo Switch Sports - Familiar Fun With Friends, But Little More
I'll definitely buy this in time, but the current offering doesn't sound worth a day one purchase, unfortunately.
Re: Feature: The Best (And Worst) Selling Games Of Nintendo's Biggest Franchises
@hypercoyote Good to know! I'll gladly avoid the greedy scalper value this game has nowadays.

Re: Star Fox Character Designer Wants Nintendo To Port Wii U Entry To Switch
Or...just port Starfox Assault with modernized controls when on-foot. The local multiplayer would especially be great to play again.
Re: Talking Point: Can It Really Be 10 Years Since Fire Emblem: Awakening Saved The Series?
Sad as it is, sounds about right. When my wife and I were newly dating she bought me this game. As if her being beautiful and a genuinely good person wasn't great enough!
Re: Random: These Pokémon Nail Polishes Will Ensure You Can Win Any Beauty Contest
Yes. Slather my toenails in Piplup pheromones. Or uh...secretions? Either way, make them beautiful. They'll go nicely with my Eevee-coated fingernails.
Re: Hands On: Nintendo Switch Sports Has Great Highs, But Disappointing Lows
@thinkhector Axe throwing would be brilliant! I'd also be onboard with archery, I definitely enjoyed it on Sports Champions (for PS Move...lol).
Re: Metal Max Xeno: Reborn Will Explode Onto Switch Soon
@GrailUK Yes, Metal Dogs is a spinoff of the Metal Max series.
Re: Metal Max Xeno: Reborn Will Explode Onto Switch Soon
So excited for this one, and makes me hope some day we see Metal Saga ported too.
Re: Hands On: Nintendo Switch Sports Has Great Highs, But Disappointing Lows
@Bret !! I did miss that. Thanks for the heads up.
Re: Hands On: Nintendo Switch Sports Has Great Highs, But Disappointing Lows
The omission of boxing and golf is unfortunate. I'm still undecided on this one...chambara could end up winning me over though.
Re: Back Page: Which Is The Best Controller Button, And What Does Your Pick Say About You?
One of my favorite parts of the Switch controller isn't even exclusive to the controller; it's the fact you can use the right stick to browse the UI. I wish more consoles embraced this as an option.
Re: Review: The House Of The Dead: Remake - Control Issues Gnaw At Sega's Arcade Classic
I've been having fun with the solo runs for the most part but the gyro is pretty whacky (though fine-tuning it via Settings does help a bit). I swear on one segment the reticle just froze for awhile, but that was only once out of like 3 playthroughs.
Re: Feature: 10 3DS Retail Games That Might Be Cheaper To Buy Digitally While You Can
@Tandy255 That's what I had feared, so it'll sit firmly as a 'maybe' for me. Thanks for the info!
Re: Feature: 10 3DS Retail Games That Might Be Cheaper To Buy Digitally While You Can
Kid Icarus and Metroid are definitely on my list before it's too late.
Can anyone vouch for Ever Oasis? I played a demo and liked it okay, but progression seemed a tad slow.
Re: Metal Max Spin-Off 'Metal Dogs' Launch Trailer Is Full Of Blasting, Barking Good Boys
Just added to my Wishlist on Steam. Very tempted to go ahead and play via Early Access because this looks fantastic.
Re: Pac-Land Is The Next Arcade Archives Game Coming To Switch
I was contemplating what I would buy alongside House of the Dead. Now I have my answer.
Re: Video: 12 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In April 2022
House of the Dead for me!
Re: Looks Like E3 2022 Is Officially Cancelled
RIP. It's for the best. Just remember the good times and have companies announce things when they're ready to. The investors will be fine.
Re: Random: Metal Gear 35th Anniversary Site Appears, And We Don't Know What To Think

Re: Rumour: Fortnite Might Be Getting A Permanent 'No-Build' Mode

Re: Yes, The House Of The Dead: Remake Does Have Gyro, And It's Getting A 'Cowboy Mode'
@Gavintendo This was weird to me too! I keep forgetting the actual release date so I was going to Wishlist it yesterday.
Re: Back Page: Why The Heck Does Kirby Hate This Tree So Much?
Air Ride was the final straw. That tree never even so much as puffed air at Kirby! And yet gets various vehicles spun into its innocent treebark.
Re: Review: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass Wave 1 - A 'Safe' Start To The 48-Track DLC Pack
It's so surreal playing new content for this Wii U port. I love every track on offer and can't wait to play them against friends later.
