While I understand the Among Us comparison, the gameplay sounds much closer to a single player version of the Werewolf/Mafia games that inspired Among Us, since those games are played in turns with a night phase, where the Werewolves decide who to kill, and a day phase where you discuss and vote on who you think the werewolves are. Where in Among Us there are no set turns, and the Imposters have to find and kill victims without being caught.

@Snatcher fairly sure that isn’t new. It was even the case, though they might have fixed it to some extent, where using a “naughty word” for a name meant everyone else sees you with a blank name.

@masterLEON the game seems to be split into DLC packs, so I’m hoping that the packs are split in such a way that people who already own the separate collections don’t have to waste money on games they already have thanks to those collections.

@Yanina I’m hoping that game packs are split in such a way to not force people who already brought the Beat-Em-Up Collection or the SF collection, to have to buy the same games twice to have access to all the games in the collection.

I know they block you from time travelling to events now, but was that a preview of a New Years event we see briefly?

Why is no one talking about the extra storage space? Maybe I can finally clear up all the clothes I’ve placed around the island due to my storage having been full for a while now. Maybe I can check out the stuff my villagers have been sending me? Man, I hope it is a lot of space we can get.

So does Grim Legends 3 mention anything about drug use in their Game Age Rating?

And the mistake isn’t yours, it’s theirs, as it is on the game description in the eShop itself…

No Zroom in the Night Sky option? You disappoint me.

So, do we get the leg strap with the November update?

Aww, yess, I am the Pumpkin King! Probably won’t be a thing, but I’d love the ability to do custom Jack oh lanterns, as every year I go absolutely pumpkin carving crazy in real life.

Sonic… Boom?
On looking it up, it’s not That Sonic Boom and has nothing to do with the Blue Hedgehog.
But still, that’s confusing.

This was disappointing, Wayforward are not known for their 3D games, and this game looked pretty poor honestly, with a weird and not especially interesting battle system from what we saw of it in the video. And the character art for human characters looked really off.
But I have plenty of other games to buy, so it matters not.
Actually, I have plenty of games to play from the pile of brought games.
…
… I have a problem.

I’d rather they keep it to their own servers than clog up Twitch. They ended up making everything stop working for everyone else.

Is this the Demo? I noticed the full version said it had a demo and downloaded that.

Is no one going to mention the villain looks kinda like Billy Mitchell?

Wait a second, why does it say:

Release Date: 25/10/2020
???

There are many games that catch my eye, but when I look them up, there’s little in the way of reviews.
Sea Bed, Dezatopia, Deep Diving Adventures, This Strange Realm of Mine…
And that’s just a few of the recent ones…
It would be nice for as many of the really obscure games as possible to get reviews.

I’m getting some serious Golden Sun & Chrono Trigger vibes here, which is obviously high praise. I brought the Messenger a while ago, but haven’t gotten round to playing it yet.

Like most others, I’d have preferred more traditional Lego sets along the lines of the Overwatch Lego perhaps, or, and here is my ideal, a vertical “floor” to slot pieces into to make Mario Maker style 2D levels for stop-motion play-through.
But clearly, I’m not the intended audience, so that’s ok. And they do look like they might be good interactive fun for kids, that combines building with a kind of “gaming” aspect.
I do worry about how much these sets will cost parents though, as this seems fairly advance/complex electronics.
Now if they can combine this Lego with Amiibos, imagine the possibilities.

The character closest to Carmilla reminds me of Kars.

@CoastersPaul @ralphdibny I was going to guess that it was the time that she Lasted at the 30 run. But the article doesn’t word it especially well…

Don’t they also have deals on Amiibos for Black Friday?

Odd, I’m in the UK, but I swear I had the US Ninja Gaiden box.
BTW, the thing on the Japanese box is actually a statue (one of two I think) that was central to the plot. Ryu is trying to keep it out of the hands of the bad guys.

He seems to have been pretty dumb. Also, the idea that he was just doing this for entertainment sake seems kinda stupid. What’s entertaining about watching someone using aim bots?
Also if someone with a following makes videos about using cheats, then that encourages his followers to try using cheats.
Of course a ban would follow.

I’m in the UK, and … I got the US box? It was the double pack with duck hunt, maybe that’s why?

Considering I’ve seen a video of someone spinning the camera around her in some menu to play with the jiggle physics, I’m going to say at least one person knew what they were doing.

These crossover designs are always so disappointing. They never really commit to their crossover partner, ending up with designs that have little to no relation to that franchise. The designers might know what attracts their usual customer base, but really have no idea how to connect with fans of their crossover partners.
At least these actually have actual Tetris stuff on them, but so small that you’d have to be kicking someone in the face with the back of your foot for them to notice.

@LaytonPuzzle27 I too would like a Zombieland Saga game, though it should probably be part idolmaster parody.

Twin stick shooters with zombies can be fun, but this game doesn’t look worth £35. Anyone remember “I MADE A GAME WITH ZOMBIES IN IT”?

@Varkster unlike Valve, Nintendo can count to three…

Why does the article title make it sound like this is the first we've heard about this? Didn't they announce this the same time they released the collection with the original version on it? When was that? E3? I mean there is a lot of new details, but we already knew it was coming.

Edit: oh, they changed the title as I was posting this.

@RedderRugfish This actually sounds kinda fun.
I mean, I've played Overwatch to death on PC, so I'm unlikely to double dip, but a new game inspired by Overwatch sounds fun, and a Dynasty Warriors type game wouldn't be the worst fit for OW characters.

Wow, a RE2 remake style remake Does sound tempting, now you mention it. But it’ll probably be closer to a decade before we see one of those, there’s still a a few other games to remake.

Hhmmmm, I don’t remember survival horror being so brightly lit back in the day, kinda ruins the atmosphere.

Ah, so I could dig out my ol’ chainsaw controller and use that?

But it is BOTW Zelda I really wanted.

Hang on, how much is Phoenix Wright in €? As if those prices above are right, then it’s overpriced in the UK. I just checked the UK price and it is £29.99, so unless that euro price is wrong, the UK is getting ripped off.

While the official one is bad in my opinion (he looks awfully generic for starters), I’m not sure changing the eyes makes it better.
Also we have to remember that this film is almost certainly not trying to appeal to us, but is probably aimed at kids who didn’t grow up with Sonic the same way we did. Maybe this design is as it needs to be to appeal to a younger audience not already familiar with Sonic.

Anyone who listens to Starbomb knows why…

I got a code for this with my Fighterz preorder. The game is unfortunately unapologetically impossible to navigate due to lack of translation. Mostly understandable that they would do this, but they even left the emulator menu untranslated. Any chance of a translation guide, Nintendo Life, to make the menus easier to navigate?

Call me when Bowsette is announced…

Is the multiplayer only online, or is there couch co-op too? I'm guessing probably not to allow players to split up?

Can anyone tell me if the Nintendo characters included in the WiiU version are in this version too?

@SimplyCinnamon53 Agreed, there's just something off-putting about them.

They probably plugged in some dodgy bootleg emulator device…

As some have already said, this is a game that seemed to play a lot better in the initial phases of development. Early let's plays seem to show a rather fun and interesting game, but it got progressively worse with each update. Every other update added something that was kinda interesting maybe, but every update broke something and added something that was a bad idea, until the final product just seemed to fall flat on its face.

Well it needs a lot of work, but then, that's what the Kickstarter is for. Don't think I'll be contributing myself, but I wish them luck.

What? No Dr Wily? Seems like a odd thing to leave out. For maximum reference points they should have him pop up as the true villain at the end, true Megaman style.
Anyway, not for me, but I agree with others that the Robot Master designs are nice.

Oh hey, it's that guy from Contradiction!

So is 2018 Plus Ultra actually 2019?
Plusing Ultra to a release date makes no sense.
