Blossom tales was a good time waster, although the story change mechanic (where in a certain section you either fight ninjas or pirates as the enemies) is heavily underutilized. I kinda liked that one even if it's cosmetic it feels. Will it get another shot in the sequel?
All this time I thought Tetris Effect was a PS4 VR exclusive. Apparently it's on Xbox which explains the cross play mention and also how it now comes to the Switch.
Well all right then.
I wonder if the effect is lessened without the VR?
Why yes, the wii version of Rodea. I definitely enjoyed that one. There is a slight learning curve here but stick with it and you get the amazing feeling of flight when you chain targets together.
The only fault I can see is the lack of numchuk support. It becomes a slight annoyance when you have to walk and also the penultimate level where you get hounded by the spiky top enemies as destroying em becomes next to impossible.
Don't see how it's inspired by 3d platformers when it's from a top down perspective especially when it makes the platforming worse due to the camera pointing up and you can't properly judge distance...
Holy cow, the Miitopia miis look really good! The Miitopia Mii has to make an update on the switch, please don't have the creation tools be left behind like Dillon's Dead-Heat Breakers.

Re: Nintendo Reveals Three More Classic Boards For Mario Party Superstars

Re: Ubisoft's Rabbids Invade The Palace Of Versailles In New Augmented Reality App
I guess Ubisoft was inspired by the hall of mirrors in Versailles to do this.

The final smash character! Let's see the final smash character!
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Voice Actor Stephen Critchlow Passes Away, Aged 54
What's his cause of death? That's too young to go out.

This is more or less Spongebob Generations.

There's such a thing as a week long exclusivity deal?
How does that even work?
Re: Tetris Effect: Connected Is Dropping Onto Nintendo Switch Soon
All this time I thought Tetris Effect was a PS4 VR exclusive. Apparently it's on Xbox which explains the cross play mention and also how it now comes to the Switch.
Well all right then.

Hyrule Warriors is mine.

Make the frame rate locked, please.

I'll give this mouse runner a try.
Re: Eldest Souls Animated Trailer Sets The Scene For Brutal Boss Battles
Is this trailer trying to copy Dead Cell's humor?
Re: Sakurai Reminds Us There's Only One DLC Fighter Left For Smash Ultimate (Again)
@russell-marlow There is no beginning or end, only the middle.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles Developer Monolith Soft Reports Huge Profits, Up By 138.2%
@Kyloctopus Or other Xeno games like Xenogears? Provided that XBCX is still too expensive to work with.
Re: Sakurai Reminds Us There's Only One DLC Fighter Left For Smash Ultimate (Again)
@Hero-of-WiiU "Captain Toad!" Yeah!
"but as soon as you knock him off he has no recovery" No.
Re: Sakurai Reminds Us There's Only One DLC Fighter Left For Smash Ultimate (Again)
@PBandSmelly "FNF only rose in popularity recently, and the roster for DLC was decided years ago. There is literally zero chance for BF to get in."
I can dream.
Re: Sakurai Reminds Us There's Only One DLC Fighter Left For Smash Ultimate (Again)
I'm hoping it's Boyfriend from Friday Night Funkin to represent Newgrounds, it's resurgence and also the birthing ground of indies.
or another indie equivalent since there's no playable indie fighters.
Edit: I forgot about Steve!
Re: Reminder: A Plague Tale: Innocence - Cloud Version Is Out Now On Switch

I have no idea what's going on.
(Adds to wishlist)
Re: Rumour: Sonic The Hedgehog Is Reportedly Set To Become A VTuber
Nintendo Life. Of all things that is Star Haven from Paper Mario, why are you using THAT picture as a thumbnail?
Re: Video: Yuji Naka Actually Made This Hidden Gem During The Wii Generation

Re: Colourful Action-Adventure Awaits In Trifox, Launching On Switch In 2022
Don't see how it's inspired by 3d platformers when it's from a top down perspective especially when it makes the platforming worse due to the camera pointing up and you can't properly judge distance...
Re: Feature: Game Builder Garage Could Help Make The Next Generation Of Game Devs
"Young man, you too can be a game designer."
Re: Nintendo Announces Game Builder Garage, A Quirky Programming Game For Switch
I have a passing interest of game making.
Price is surprisingly cheap.
Count me in.
Re: Random: Miitopia's New Tools Are Awesome - But We Still Can't Hide The Nose
Everyone dismisses this "no nose" issue. Meanwhile, I sit in the corner forever displeased that I'll never make a Toad mii without a nose.
Re: Miitopia's New Mii Creation Tools Are Terrifyingly Powerful
Holy cow, the Miitopia miis look really good!
The Miitopia Mii has to make an update on the switch, please don't have the creation tools be left behind like Dillon's Dead-Heat Breakers.
Re: Video: Here's How Pokémon Snap Might Have Looked On Game Boy Color
Huh, I thought it would take some more inspiration from Nicktoons Freeze Frame Frenzy from the GBA.
Anyone else remember that game?
Re: More Retro Games Are On The Way To Capcom Arcade Stadium
More arcade games are welcome. Thnx Cap.
Re: Nintendo Teases Mario Kart Tour's Brand-New City Course
Have to admit that Baby Mario and Toad in that picture is looking adorable.
Re: Rumour: Sonic Colors Remaster Listed In Localisation Company's Credits
A remaster is a bit overdue. Needs to be enjoyed by more people.
Re: Review: Renzo Racer - An Abysmal Mario Kart Clone That Should Be Avoided At All Costs
Why does the pink bunny look like a creepy knockoff Babs Bunny from Tiny Toon Adventures?
Re: '80s-Inspired "Skateboating Game" Wave Break Splashes Onto Switch This Spring
Umm....Yeah. Wave race skateboarding mixed with guns is a thing.
I actually did a double take when I saw a M rating when I originally thought it was just a simple tony hawk game but with water.
Either way, lets see how this combination goes.
Re: The Guys Behind Streets Of Rage 4 And Scott Pilgrim Are Making A Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Game
Streets of Rage 4 and Scott Pilgrim devs?
Working together?
On a TMNT beat em up?!
And it's from the 90's cartoon?!
I can't believe some people actually remembered the Reshelled remake considering how awful that was.
Re: "Several" Square Enix Remakes Are In Development At Polish Studio Forever Entertainment
Live a Live. Get me, Live a Live. If they can get a different art style for each level they're in. OMG I'd be done.

Oof.
Granted it's only been five years but still....oof.
Re: Review: Taxi Chaos - A Crazy Taxi Spiritual Successor That Fails To Go The Extra Mile
@tka060681 I'll bite for $4.99
Re: Review: Taxi Chaos - A Crazy Taxi Spiritual Successor That Fails To Go The Extra Mile
20 years of video game advancements besides graphics is woefully underutilized on this Crazy Taxi successor.
No way, this is worth $35 much less $30.
Re: The 3DS Game Miitopia Is Coming To Nintendo Switch This May
Disappointed this isn't a sequel since I already played the first Miitopia. If the price is $40, I'll maybe double dip.
I highly recommend this game for those who haven't played it. It's a goofy fun RPG taking it's mii like humor to the max.
Re: Donut County Dev Is Now Working On Neon White, A First-Person Action Game About Killing Demons
It looked like a on rails shooter to me at first glance.
Re: Capcom Arcade Stadium Is Out Now On Nintendo Switch
Please don't let there be all of the arcade games, Capcom.
Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fans Will Want To Tune Into Tomorrow's Nintendo Direct
Sakurai, please don't announce something in the middle of the direct. My toad heart can't take it.
