@DanijoEX yeah, the creator doesn't license Calvin and Hobbes out for anything, which I definitely respect him for, but it does cause quite the merch dearth
As someone who worked in video game QA in a former life, I'm surprised audio bugs aren't more common. They give you the crummiest, most uncomfortable headphones and no one wants to wear them all day.
I dunno, I worked QA in video games and saying literally anything about what you're working on publicly is a fireable offense so just take the L and move on, it's literally in the NDA you have to sign.
While I wouldn't say it's the BEST, the original GB Wave Race is mighty impressive considering it's on the GB and worth mentioning. It's feels better than you'd expect.
This game isn't made for people who go to Nintendo Life to read reviews. If you can't have fun playing it, then. 🤷 I bought it for myself and enjoy it because I literally just wanted Wii Bowling. I got it for my 5 and 7 y/o nieces and they're obsessed. Mission accomplished by the devs.
As someone who owns and enjoyed Balan in a "This is absolutely insane" sort of way and has tried to get everyone to play it because I think it needs to be experienced, I don't think it's good. It's certainly not the worst game I've played this year, but there was very clear design and function problems in the game. You can be ok with that, but to be so defensive and outright angry in your tone is more you being unable to recognize "I like this" does not equal "this is good" and feels amateurish.
Just be an absolute maniac like me and own a CDi. 🙃 I've played this before (not sure if it's the same build) and the idea is really interesting, and I loved the sprite designs.
Got mine in the mail from limited run last week, started up the first one, but I am late to the Shantae game and didn't get Pirate's Curse originally, so now I'm having to get it for higher prices.
Played this on Game Pass, it's a very lovely game and the soundtrack is fantastic. Generally not like, terribly difficult, but that wasn't what I was looking for, personally.
Love Golf with your Friends, play it online with my brother every week. It's dumb fun. Once you get used to the gameplay and course design, you can really cook. It's on Game Pass, so I rec everyone to check it out for themselves.
Back on the Dreamcast, there was a 102 Dalmatians game. It wasn't very good, but it had a mini golf mini game my brothers and I probably put 100s of hours playing just that. This reminds me of it a lot.
@timboslice This game has a Worms themed course, funny enough.
It having online multiplayer means I'm going to buy it now. Was sad the Wii U version didn't, but then realized I didn't know anyone else with a Wii U.....
