good list - shows there are a ton of good stuff to be played and of course scarlet and violet was too late to really make it on here but the real game of the year just came out too.. >>>>>> Lil Gator <<<<<<<< that game is a masterpiece
@ModdedInkling are you not paying attention to all the opioid lawsuits still ongoing? They even got the pharmacies to pay. Will Apple, Microsoft or Steam pay up just for offering these games? I for one think the cases are bullcrap.. even for opioids. People need to take control and be responsible for their own lives
the parents could of blocked the game on the router put a nanny vise on his account or maybe just change the wifi password like, what were the parents doing at all for two years?
problem I have with this movie is Mario is always acting astonished and oohh and ahh and gasping like he is just some plucked parent from the audience thrown into the movie and not an actual seasoned video game character
This game plays like a boardgame so I ignore whatever glitches happen. This isn't action based like Arceus where it would matter more. But hopefully we get a Switch 2 next year to make it easier on dev teams
@Jeronan won't contest that but not every gaming house is perfect. It is time for some new nvidia chip switch to show up for these open world games.. look at Sonic
@Araquanid short games don't really matter in this age of everyone having a stack of games they never have time to finish. If it is quick and fun then I can get back to the never ending ones later.
I give it a 3.. it is just a bad tech demo of same stuff placed on some landscapes that all look the same with ZERO personality in the whole world. This is no Breath of the Hedgehog I guess if you love fidget spinners this could be your nirvana
it is terrible - you have to really put on the blinders to say this is good.. It has no personality at all in the game design.. just throw a bunch of game assets all around and feels like a tech demo Does Target take returns?
@KayFiOS Nintendo sell personas. That is probably why they don't bother with F-Zero. Maybe someone else should either license it or make their own type of game like that.
Did they ever try to promote Captain Falcon? it seemed that GX game had lots of cutscreens
@AstraeaV After decades of playing games I really hate those games like God of War that seem way better as a movie than playing. You get to think you can do anything but then you are put into a battle sequence that you can't save the game and you have to beat it a certain way and do it over and over and over until you are sick of every character just to get to the next trapped gameplay.
That is why BotW was such a breath of fresh air. Do whatever, whenever. Yes the shrines you couldn't save and some boss battles but all the regular stuff you can do whatever and pick and chose what you wanted to do
It is a wonderful privilege to sit atop my evil skull castle and play my hoarded rare collection of games that lesser minions of the realm can never get a whiff of!!!
Beg and donate on my stream so you may have a glimpse of the wonderful experience that I am so generous to share.. for a price
@HeroponRiki they were smart to just do a little with mobile .. mainly Fire Emblem Heroes was done really well. I only played it for a year but there is so much content on that game it is worth whatever you throw in since you are never really able to keep up with everything you can do so you never feel forced to buy anything.. you just end up wanting to since it is so good
throws you on a grind conveyer and dribbles you little rewards that you can't escape cause you can only pay to buy cosmetics or the haters would scream Pay2win
I wish the original Baldur's Gate had this fast turn base mechanic.. would make playing that a joy since you have to juggle so many characters in your party
@Not_Soos a big rule I always had was spend that first paycheck on you since you were going weeks with less anyway. Treat yourself and then get back to paying the bills.
POrtal is a masterpiece but I'd say portal 2 goes a little long in those last parts through the endless pipes and wasn't worth finishing for me at least.

Re: Nvidia Employee Comment Confirms Chip Rumoured To Be Used In 'Switch Pro' Is Real
@Anachronism yeah that why DLSS tech is perfect for them. It isn't raw power but the result are stunning

Re: Nvidia Employee Comment Confirms Chip Rumoured To Be Used In 'Switch Pro' Is Real
@Anachronism DLSS is the ticket for Nintendo to make its move. A cheap way to get great looking graphics on even old monitors.
Re: Nvidia Employee Comment Confirms Chip Rumoured To Be Used In 'Switch Pro' Is Real
DLSS makes perfect sense for the next switch. The visual trickery is magic with that tech. Makes crappy old monitors look like 4k
