I miss being able to play a Christmas season on Animal Crossing. Sure, I can play New Leaf, but that doesn't sound very appealing with New Horizons coming out soon.
Animal Crossing: New Leaf is an amazing game that was a perfect match for the 3DS's portability. The relaxing enjoyment that comes with the game is great, and the ability to play anytime throughout the day and have something to do (in-game) is fantastic. The different/random conversations had with the animals is hilarious, and gives depth to the characters. The different music every hour based on the season and weather is very satisfying, as well. The details and creativity make this cute game a blast to play.
@jco83 I recommend giving it a second chance if you can.
The fact that the Switch game sales were semi-strong this past week is extremely surprising. Most of their IP sales weren't nearly as great as their competitors. You can't really compete with PS4 games selling at $9.99 and top Xbox games selling around the same price.
I think most of you are overreacting. Sure, the microtransaction business stinks, but it's not like those structures are shifting to console games. I wouldn't really expect anything less from a mobile perspective, cause that's what the industry is now known for. I think everyone needs to chill, and once microtransactions hit console games, I'll join you all in disappointment.
@Jayenkai They'll probably be around $130ish dollars, if I could guess. There will be a LOW quantity, making them super rare, which allows scalpers to sell them at a horrific price.
This has to have been the funniest comment section I've read in a while! I lol'd a few times, @Manah & @Silly_G are some funny peeps. Thanks for the laughs... I needed 'em.
