Re: Grezzo Is Handling The Luigi’s Mansion Port For 3DS

CaptFloofers

I'm really looking forward to this. I liked Luigi's Mansion on the Gamecube quite a bit but was not a fan of Dark Moon. This was mainly due to the gameplay progression interrupting me every 5-10 minutes with its mission based setup, and I couldn't get into. I also think Grezzo did a superb job with the Zelda remakes so I'm pretty excited for that.

Re: Soapbox: What Pokémon GO And The Pokémon Main Series Could Learn From Each Other

@Yorumi Thanks for the clarification, that actually does make sense. I've been interested from time-to-time in trying to make a team with regards to values and more in-depth strategies, but never really saw the point since I don't normally play online (I'm not a very competitive person ). I think it would be nice to put something in like that to give me more of an excuse to actually do it; I think team-building like that could be right up my alley.

@Yorumi I would disagree that attention to IVs and EVs are necessary in end game. No matter how many other people have claimed otherwise, I have noticed that every main series game from Red to Sun had been perfectly completeable with level and type advantages. Are there some tougher spots? Absolutely, but the only parts I can see the EVs and IVs being necessities are with the Battle Tower and its equivilants. Pretty much everything else is higher level and move-type advantage = win. Either that, or I've been incredibly lucky.

Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Direct Summary - 8th March

Personally, the thing I was most excited for is that Hyrule Warriors finally has a release date but that's not on the poll. I'd care more about Smash if not for the fact it's one of those games that gets hyped out the wazoo, then I buy it and never get around to playing it.

Re: Poll: Which is the Best Super Mario Game?

CaptFloofers

I know the entire reason this poll was made was to gush more about Odyssey, but I decided to vote anyway.

2D game: Super Mario World
3D game and overall: Super Mario 64

I don't have a Switch and don't plan on getting one anytime soon so I don't have an opinion on Odyssey yet. However, I'm not usually taken in by super hyped games (it's usually a deterrent for me), so I'm not interested at the moment.

Re: Poll: Are You Excited About the Super NES Classic Edition?

CaptFloofers

I'm not getting one and even if I really did want one, I wouldn't be able to for obvious reasons. That said, I am willing to be wrong about my (and everyone else's) predictions for the stock situation. And for sale of completion I voted on Secret of Mana, Mario RPG, and Earthbound, though there are plenty of good games on there.

Re: Retrospective: The Awkward Birth of the DS, Nintendo's Most Successful System

CaptFloofers

The DS was a great system, there's no denying that, and its successor is currently my preferred portable system (and I'm mostly a portable gamer). However, the one thing about its legacy that always sticks out to me is the fact that this was the start of what I've been referring to as the "Gimmick Age" for Nintendo, and honestly I'm not sure how I feel about that.
