Re: Mario Kart Tour Surpasses 200 Million Downloads And $200 Million In Player Spending

D-Star92

I've recently played Mario Kart Tour for a bit, and to be honest, I didn't like it. I thought the controls were awful...I kept missing coins left and right. It was just not fun playing like this. I ain't spending money on this, that's for sure...I'd rather play the other games, thank you.

With that said, I like the multiple costumes for each character, and the remixed retro tracks are pretty all right. It's a shame that the game turned out pretty bad for me though.

Re: Nintendo Unveils A New Blue Switch Lite Console

Looks more like the indigo used for the GameCube/GBA back in the day. It still looks cool though...and quite nostalgic for me too!

@SigourneyBeaver Yeah I think it is, I once asked a question in the Switch thread if it's possible to keep the same friend code on both systems. You just need to be connected online on your non-primary system to play your games. You can make it so that your save data is synced on both the Switch and Switch Lite, as well.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (April 10th)

Since the PS3 shop is gonna nuke in July, I got some games from there. I started playing Mega Man Legends yesterday night so I'll likely play that. (I got MML2, Klonoa, and Tomba, as well.) I do want to play more Pac-Man 99 as well though. It's been a while since I played Animal Crossing: New Horizons so I kinda wanna get back into it! Hopefully I'll find some new DIYs for my friends if I learned them already.

Re: Happy MAR10 Day, Everyone!

Happy Mario Day, everyone! Since I just finished both Super Mario 3D World and Bowser's Fury, I'm having a bit of a hard time what to play today, lol. I was thinking of starting a Mario drawing today, though!

Re: Anniversary: Can You Believe It? The Nintendo 3DS Is Now 10 Years Old

D-Star92

10 years??? It doesn't feel like that long ago since it launched.

Anyway, the 3DS is an awesome handheld and I still play mine from time to time. And yeah, I was one of those guys who bought it at launch too, so I'm lucky to have those NES and GBA games. It may have had a bit of a rocky start, but it managed to have a plethora of awesome games! I had the aqua blue 3DS, then the red and black 3DS XL, and finally, the red New 3DS XL which is what I have now. As often as I play my Switch these days, I ain't getting rid of my 3DS (or any of my Nintendo consoles, for that matter), that's for sure.

Happy 10th anniversary, Nintendo 3DS!

Re: Nintendo's Paper Mario Series Is Now 20 Years Old

D-Star92

Me and my brother used to play Paper Mario: TTYD. A ton. We always looked forward to what events the next chapter would bring. So that was my favorite Paper Mario memory. Still my favorite Paper Mario game too, with the N64 original not too far behind. I do like Origami King as well - that was a MASSIVE step up over the train wreck known as Sticker Star.

I'll likely head back to Animal Crossing: New Horizons this weekend. Oh, and tomorrow is my birthday! So I'll likely play some Mario games with my family to celebrate. Was thinking of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Mario Maker 2, or one of the Mario Party games. Maybe some Nintendo Land, as well.

@PBNightmare I was recently thinking of getting OR/AS from the eShop soon. Heard great things about HG/SS, but sadly they're like $100 at least. So OR/AS it is, lol

Re: Hardware Classics: The Super Famicom Is 30 Today

D-Star92

Probably my favorite console of all time, but the Switch is right up there too. I have a ton of nostalgia for the SNES and it has some of the best games ever made. But like a lot of people, I SO prefer the Super Famicom design. The NA design is pretty bland in comparison, honestly.

Can't believe it's been 30 years since it came out in Japan. I feel old...lol
