@BobbleBubble As a hobbyist artist, I appreciate a lot of what AI can do. If I need a texture of a rusty console with some buttons on it, I can A: buy it from something like Shutterstock, probably not entirely what I am looking for, B: Find it in real life or C: ask AI for a rusty console texture.

What I make of it is still me doing the work. I just asked for a quick texture.

Is that lame? Some of you will say yes, some will say no. I just feel like I saved an hour or two worth of searching and retouching a simple texture.

Consumers won't know the difference, and it's not like I cheated an artist out of money.

@Erigen The event itself was literally about getting drunk.

While I REALLY like the US one, Japan's is way more festive and fitting. Europe is just boring. Like, why?

SNES for me. Never liked the graphics of the N64, and GC never really had the ganes I wanted. Of course I spent countless hours on it anyways, but I have better memories of the SNES. That was my high school console, so...

Formative years, eh?

My kids still play it on Switch every now and again, but I loathe the way they implemented the market place and whatnot. I bought a few add-on packs, especially skins, but I can never use them for some reason.

I am done with this game. And I was a very early adopter at around 2011.

If they reverted the "Shakespearian" script and went back to plain and dull Engrish, it'll be a no from me.

Edit: Seems they are keeping the script's tone from WotL, which I am content with. Missing a few extra cutscenes and a character that feels out of place anyways won't bother me. Hopefully the VA is mutable. I dislike VAs most of the time.

@JohnnyMind Dear, dear Johnny,

Seeing as I have read plenty ofnyour comments detailing your, quite frankly, insane backlog, let me tell you something...

Do NOT, under ANY circumstance, plan to play Disgaea 1 to 6 first before this one.

These games are EASILY 100+ hours per game, 200+ if you want to do a lot of the added content. These games are ridiculous. Leveling up your characters to level 999, your ITEMS to level 999, trust me, you do not want to get started on that.

Buy this game if you want, but expect a TIME sink. Also, there are cameos but the stories aren't that connected. You can easily start with 7.

I like the colors in the JP one more, but Bison's smug face is amazing on the other one.

NA/EU for me.

@CammyUnofficial Well, he said it himself.

The will to resist is in our hands.

I'll probably end up getting it real soon anyways, who am I kidding. The fear of missing out is strong with this one.

Probably not a day 1 for me.

I bought Tactics Ogre day 1. Now, constantly half price.

I bought Unicorn Overlord when I finally saw a copy out in the wild, after months of being totally sold out everywhere. It is HEAVILY discounted now.

Same with Triangle Strategy.

And I barely touched those games, I never seem to find enough time to play.

@Simu001 On Switch there will be no community. Just lobbies, going dryer and dryer until the plug is pulled again.

Communities, including toxic ones, are a PC thing. So no worries there.

Yes!!!

And this is how you do voice acting. Voices that feel like they belong in the setting, with a script that feels like it belongs. None of this '90s Hollywood cool kids nonsense so many JRPGs are cursed with.

I'm glad there's an easier option included. I love the story, but I've outgrown the gameplay a little, I'm afraid.

Baffling how they ditched the animé aesthetic in favor of Paw Patrol-esque graphics.

But hey, their game, their choice.

I LOVED that game but sooooo much FOMO. It got ridiculous and if I would jump back in now, the million little sub-systems will confuse me.

Had a blast with this game, but no more.

@mlt That is 100% an issue of that is the best scan found online. Colour saturation and clarity should never be taken into account when voting on a Box Art Brawl, because especially with older titles, there is a big chance the art shown is from a photograph or scan, and not the source graphic, hence differences in picture quality.

@awp69 the Kemco then is a hugely different thing from the Kemco now. Sure, they released mediocre stuff back then as wekl, but also some really amazing stuff. Shame all they release now is basically low effort RPG Maker stuff.

@nhSnork Ahhh, I had one bootleg NES cartridge, and I LOVED it. Battle City was on it too, and it was amazing. A friend had another bootleg cartridge which felt even more exotic. Good times!

@timp29 Haha, no worries. There are multiple ways to interpret this entire story, and I am not even sure it's necessarily Grindr either... Though I would wager it would attract more male gamers than female ones, especially with the very apparent tongue-in-cheek name, but I also don't think there are that many people who are both Smash Bros gamers ánd gay.

I don't know...

Never heard of this before. Teacher here too but I didn't see my students do this. Did see the play another clicker once, but that was short lived.

I am honestly quite surprised to read so many comments here about how you guys played this.

@-wc- Don't know when you usually post comments on NL, but I'd wager it's during "idle moments"? Though those moments may be very short lived. I know I sometimes slouch off on my sofa and open up NL and TE to "recover" with. I should just rest entirely when I do though...

Right now I am in the train though, so might as well...

However, never ever will I waste my time with a clicker game. There are way better time wasters out there.

@timp29 No, I think it is more about people using their joysticks to smash.

I don't dislike the others, but Japan is the most festive.

@Mommar Thanks for the reply. How did you go about finding venues to play at? Maybe I am just too scared to take a leap, but I don't really know where to start...

@NinChocolate Yeah, I guess you are right. I spoke too soon.

I went and looked up sales data. FF7 understandably did better, but 5 million for Chrono Trigger is no mean feat. Even if accounting for double dippers, and even if only a fifth of these sales are diehard fans, that would probably still mean a commercial success.

But I don't know. Maybe a million isn't worth it for Square, maybe it is... I wouldn't know...

@NinChocolate Games with a fraction of the fan base actually makes way more sense to remaster. No expectations means more people will enjoy it. Sky high expectations, like with CT, means a lot more disappointment. I mean, even here, right now, some are lamenting FF7 Remake. Nobody is complaining about the Romancing Saga remake.

The vocal minority is strong with Chrono Trigger. And let's be honest, they can do no right with this one. Whichever choice they make, there will be backlash.

@Ogbert I'm afraid your very good explanation will fall on a lot of deaf ears here. Some folks just don't want to understand.

@Mommar Not to hi-jack the thread, butnwpuldblove to hear more. I mainly produce music but have been thinking of DJ'ing as well. Only so much time in a day though, but if it helped you, it might also be for me...

@UltimateOtaku91 Excellent pun good sir!

@Zuljaras I did not know they were behind GOG. Then this interview makes even more sense.

It always struck me as kind of odd that those fancy new games by CDPR were always released on GOG. Now I know why, haha.

No. Age rising on the other hand...

I just no longer have time.

Oh pahleaaase, as if the games he was reaponsible for didn't require any update ever whatsoever. How many games these days do NOT require day 1 patches? Those games may just as well be game key carts the way they don't include the full game.

@LikelySatan I'd say it is an easy mistake to make, but I'd wager 999 out of a 1000 times, someone saying any of those movies are good, they are being sarcastic.

@LikelySatan Well, the writer said he WASN'T going to say that Clones was good, so you're good.

@SoIDecidedTo Personally, I much preferred the N64 game. Same with F-Zero and Wave Race, I felt the N64 versions were much better. The GC ones felt like theyball played on 1,5x speed, and not in a good way. But I might be the minority in that.

Funny thing about this game, Wave Race and F-Zero, I preferred the N64 ones by a landslide. The GC versions were too fast for me. I liked the slower going varieties.

As for art, NA EU on this one.

@LordDieALot Well, according to ChatGPT, I believe it was Rosa Parks whose husband was a NASCAR racer, so I wouldn't put too much "stock" (hur) into what he says. Chat isn't always right.

For a second there I thought you meant we could finally hide titles in the eShop, so I would never see them again.

Now I am sad. Hello Thief Simulator, welcome back to the sale section.

I like the idea. Ever since Dark Cloud 2, stopping somewhere in the wild to build a township there makes me happy. I will probably get the demo.

I have not touched my Switch in a long while. I simply do not have the time to play anything. But no worries, I did plenty other fun things. Other hobbies have taken precedence.

It's nice to be credited, and good form, but it's not necessary. He made the song for Nintendo to own, was paid for it, and that's really just that.

Again, it's good form to do so, but it's really not that big of a deal that they didn't.

I prefer the JP one. I like the grey world map in the back, and it makes the characters pop. Too much red in the other one. Washes out the characters.

Well, the boxes are ugly enough to want to go full digital anyways.

I can't lie, Switch 2 isn't looking that appealing to me any more. Then again, maybe I just finally grew out of gaming. Or into another depression... or both...

@PikminMarioKirby They really did, didn't they?

@jezepy and calling it the Mansion Suit no less. A tiny added layer to the reference.

@mr12calvin A lot of people áre talking about it though. This site has an article about it too. And yeah, it's weird. They should've gone with at least double the storage right off the bat.

@Wakkawipeout No problem. She is known for acting so I get the mistake

@Wakkawipeout Sweeney isn't cast as the blonde. She is one if the producers.

If only days became twice as long, maybe I could squeeze in an hour or two of gamig time. Alas...

Wow. Just wow.

They didn't reveal interesting lore, people!!

They revealed thoughts and ideas that the developers felt weren't up to snuff to be released. Creativity means ypu pursue ideas that may end up in the bin because they were not good ideas. That doesn't make them "canon", that makes them ideas that got canned.

It's not game preservation, it's preservation of a digital bin of crumpled up papers, plus private information, which is just plain criminal.

And sure, there can be some value in those tossed ideas for those interested, but it's still up to the company if they want to release them. This is still just theft, plain and simple.

I would've liked to have seen a Cops and Robbers, but in the open world, with a designated finish line for the robbers to reach, a bit like in GTA.

If you can run over Goombas and whatnot, it's basically...

Mario Karmageddon!

That sounds like a lot of fun! I am GAME!

Never played it before, and chances are very high I would finally give it a go if it were to release on Switch 2.

But I am not in a hurry, and neither should they be.
