@hadrian : er, pretty sure rainbow islands was never ever ever on zx81.. no way it would’ve been able to do it.
The speccy version was great though, played it loads as a kid (until monster island, where the colour clash got too much, and everything became hard to figure out.. could never see Dracula coming)
I kinda enjoyed it, in a “it wasn’t awful” kinda way. Last few episodes fell a bit short, and each episode could’ve done with cutting down to 30 mins. But I didn’t hate it at all.
Not as much as I hated Ms Marvel anyhow.. that show was awful

If true, it’s only $10.. dunno what fuss is about.
Re: Nintendo Wins "Switch Joy-Con Drift" Class Action Lawsuit
Im lucky, never had joycon drift.
I'm on my (at least) 10th Xbox One/Series X controller though..
The LB/RB buttons are the ones which usually die for me... But other buttons/sticks have broken over years too.
And I play xbox FAR FAR less than my day one switch...

Re: Sonic Frontiers Director Excited About Next Game, Promises Even "Greater" Experience
Imho, get rid of the standard unreal engine world, and replace it with something more stylized and fun.. ditto to music.. and I’ll buy
Re: Totally New 30-Second Super Mario Movie Trailer Appears Out Of Nowhere
I don’t mind Pratts voice for Mario.
The princess’ voice on other hand.. just nope.

Re: Feature: "We Received Many Requests To Bring Back The Puzzle Bobble Series"
@CharlieGirl :
Rainbow islands could really work in modern day.
Heck I can even invision a 3D version of it.. shame I don’t have any contacts at Taito, would love to pitch for it.

Re: Sonic Frontiers Will Receive "Multiple" Free DLC Content Updates
I’m only interested with dlc which turns the world into something more stylized and nicer to look at, and less boring music.

Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope
Lmao @ people moaning about frame rate. It’s a strategy game, not a fps or racer!
And also laughing at people moaning about stuff they’d have never noticed unless there was a video telling them about it.
Re: The Super Mario Bros. Movie Gets 'PG' Rating
Rated PG as it ends in a dance party - like every one of their films.
Re: The Super Mario Bros. Movie Gets 'PG' Rating
Well bang goes by hoping for a NR rating.
Re: Rumour: Possible First Look At Mario's Movie Face Appears Online
looks fine to me. Just the tasche looks a bit weird.. but I have no complaints.

Re: Chris Pratt Has Seen The Super Mario Movie Teaser, Says He's "Blown Away"
He's hardly going to say it's awful is he?
And it's a teaser - you wont hear him talk.
Re: Rayman Returns In Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope DLC
Announcing dlc before game is released, feels gross to me.

Re: Random: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Trick Gets You All Korok Seeds In 10 Minutes
Seems like a bigger hassle to me than just getting them (which is already a big hassle)
Re: Random: Nintendo Tweaks Mario's Nipples
@Lanmanna : Im just saying maybe Mario isnt cis?
And therefor, as such, nipples would be the worst thing ever.. or something?
Re: Rumour: Sonic Prime Reportedly Lands Netflix Release Date
Netflix, surely they missed a trick by not having it on Amazon?

Re: Nintendo Direct For Splatoon 3 Confirmed For This Week
After how quick the last two lost support, this had better do something significantly better that couldn’t have just been done in a patch for #2
Re: Soapbox: Super Mario Sunshine Wasn't Bad, It Was Just Ahead Of Its Time
I loved this game first time around.
Tried playing it with all stars. And i couldn’t get along with it at all.. controls felt.. clunky ..
Might be lack of cube controller though
Re: PlatinumGames Hires Nintendo Veteran, Signalling 'Significant Change'
I’m a grumpy pants, as all of their games appeal to me until I play them, then I find myself bored in no time at all.
I don’t know what it is about their games which makes me want to like them, but I never do.
Re: Round Up: Here's What Critics And Fans Think Of The Resident Evil Netflix Series
I kinda enjoyed it, in a “it wasn’t awful” kinda way. Last few episodes fell a bit short, and each episode could’ve done with cutting down to 30 mins. But I didn’t hate it at all.
Not as much as I hated Ms Marvel anyhow.. that show was awful
Re: Bayonetta 3 Nintendo Switch File Size Seemingly Revealed
Pre ordering games seems odd to me
Re: Best Mario Kart Games Of All Time
DD actually did something different. All the other ones got boring and tired over years.
Best vanilla one was the ds one.. but even that got boring.
Re: Talking Point: Would You Mind If Nintendo Retired The 'Big' Nintendo Direct Format?
I do miss them doing silly things in them though, like becoming muppets, etc
Re: Talking Point: Would You Mind If Nintendo Retired The 'Big' Nintendo Direct Format?
Yes!
I love getting excited for a direct, then getting disappointed when it inevitably shows nothing I’m interested in.
Re: My Nintendo Store Down For Maintenance, Possibly For Weeks (EU)
Direct confirmed.
Re: Naughty Rhythm Game 'Massage Freaks' Gets A Rub Down On Switch Next Month
@Yas : if sexes were reversed, they could have a joystick waggling mode…. Like hyper sports.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Has A "Naive Angel Mode" For People Who Don't Want To See Bums
@BobLong-RickTangle : the bum is only being used on the monsters too.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Has A "Naive Angel Mode" For People Who Don't Want To See Bums
@BobLong-RickTangle : sorry, where was I making a joke?
Why are guns and violence “family friendly”, but something I can see by looking in a mirror, not?
It’s pure hypocrisy, and yeah.. I’m saying that especially with the stupid happening in the USA right now.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Has A "Naive Angel Mode" For People Who Don't Want To See Bums
@BobLong-RickTangle : “ more power to you if you get off on this kind of thing”
Guns?
Re: Bayonetta 3 Has A "Naive Angel Mode" For People Who Don't Want To See Bums
Maybe this mode replaces the guns with water pistols and walkie talkies?
Re: Bayonetta 3 Has A "Naive Angel Mode" For People Who Don't Want To See Bums
Oh noes! Not skin!
Glad they kept those family friendly guns in though.
(For record, I don’t care either way, it’s a load of polygons, nothing to get excited about… but the hypocrisy gets to me..)
Re: Poll: What's The Best Mario Kart Game?
@thinkhector : agreed. I’ve gone for the ds game and double dash as my faves. All the others I’ve played have been solid 6/10 for me.
I haven’t rated games I’ve not played
Re: Poll: What's The Best Mario Kart Game?
DD for me, last Mario kart which did something interesting.
I find the lack of single player/story modes to be a let down in mk in general…
Re: Bayonetta 3 Gets "Mature" ESRB Rating For Nudity, Gore, And In-Game Purchases
As for Nintendo and censorship.
Remember that Nintendo published conkers, which was censored on the Xbox port later.
And of course they also published eternal darkness, Geist (I think), and devils 3rd .. and probably more I don’t remember
And remember that the Nintendo version of manhunt 2 was also the only uncensored version.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Gets "Mature" ESRB Rating For Nudity, Gore, And In-Game Purchases
All signs are pointing towards a direct in next week.
Imho.
