…expedition 33 this time?

@ShadLink
This is why I don’t like review scores as a whole. Write paragraphs of good things to say about a game but people only fixate on the number at the end.

I think this is a tricky road. On one hand yeah it’s an E title and both kids and adults will be playing. On the other hand I think innocent design sharing is a huge part of the appeal. I feel like being able to share through codes of some sort would be a good middle ground. Nintendo doesn’t have to monitor an in game sharing service as closely and people can still share designs freely in online communities. Kids shouldn’t be in those spaces anyhow so it’s not a huge concern.

Edit: also Miitopia for the switch had built in mii sharing and it was fine for the most part. I don’t see the big problem.

@LastFootnote
To me the value the modes provide doesn’t seem worth the price. Maybe included in the base game is a little strong but comparing it to say Splatoon’s octo expansion for the same price… It feels like the type of side mode that’s unlockable after you beat the base game. This kind of thing used to be included like that and paid expansions were huge (like blizzard expansions for example).

Loved bananza but this should’ve been included in the base game.

Just got prime 4 so in the opening hours but I feel the same way. This is my first prime game (although fusion and dread are some of my favorite metroidvanias) and really enjoying it. Yeah the NPCs are a whiff but it’s not enough to drag it down for me. Funnily enough this is how I feel about the new stranger things. It has things to criticize but the whole discourse just brought things down.

Really wish that this was sold separately or that I could just get like 3 months of expansion pass. I just canceled for the regular family pass and it wouldn’t be cheap to switch over. I mean still cheaper than a GameCube copy but much more convenient. I would pay so much for a Tellius duology on cartridge.

Screw it im resubbing to nso expansion. I always meant to emulate this but I really think I need a push to play through and this’ll do it.

@SynapticFlow
I mostly farm them on the mobile games. There’s plenty of ways to get the points fast there.

@Galaxy2IsTheGOAT
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I believe he has a team that’s working on Stardew that he just oversees. Off the top of my head that team includes the guy behind Stardew expanded so I think it’s in good hands. I believe the primary focus is Haunted Chocolatier.

It’s 10 gigs what’s the logic. I get AAA releases with big file sizes but a game this small? No real reason.

@Gatorclops
I’m playing through three houses again on switch 2 and that game desperately needs it. Same with the Xenoblade games they just look so blurry in handheld.

@LinktotheFuture
Definitely make the run through sinners road for the alt path then. Phantom is one of my favorite bosses anyways so have fun.

@LinktotheFuture
Super difficult but it has more variety than doing the same run over and over. Plus it ended up having one of my favorite fights in the game so it was a win.

@CJD87 Ugh of course it is. I’ve been dreading it since some of my friends got there first.

@Athropos
I know exactly what fight you mean. Worst feeling win since that elephant scene in It Takes Two.

@CJD87
The last judge run back is the only time I actually got frustrated with the game. I ended up skipping it through the secret route lol.

This bench made me laugh out loud it’s so on brand for the game. Hunters March isn’t even that bad if you have the dash so I fortunately did have health still. Now I was dumb and sat down a second time which honestly made it funnier.

Accessibility doesn’t necessarily mean making something easier. It means making it available so that everyone regardless of disabilities or other circumstances can play the game. Not necessarily making it easier. If it’s easier you’re not even playing the same game the developers wanted to be made so why bother. I personally usually drop souls esque games but I love metroidvanias so I’m sticking through this. It’s punishing and hard so there’s some bosses that got on my nerves but overall I’m really enjoying the experience. If you aren’t then maybe this genre or this game just isn’t for you and that’s fine. I’ve dropped Elden Ring three times and I don’t necessarily thing difficulty options would make it any better.

@dazzleshell
In game purchases typically can refer to a switch online sub so not really an indicator

@gabrigoes
For sure I definitely didn’t get a handle on the controls and combat in my short demo so it could definitely improve.

Played at pax east this year was really neat. It did control a little weird but I could see it being a real gem.

I kinda loved the circle short for the absurdity and I’m sure this will be more of the same. Will be my next get after Bananza is finished.

@GregamanX
All of the gear was also from the Splatoon 2 final fest. I always used the eye of justice so might have to get back into Splatoon 3.

@Papery0shi
All the Xenoblade games need switch 2 patches. Especially for handheld I decided to try to pick Xenoblade 3 back up for a good rpg to play on S2 but it looks rough especially in handheld.

@Fizza
Pokemon legends Z is a full switch 2 upgrade while this is just a performance patch I guess. Won’t legends Z hit up to 120fps? Not justifying it I think it should be free but that’s probably the internal justification.

Midnight launch and hopefully Mario kart all night.

Probably one of my favorite games ever mostly because of the campaign. I replay it around once a year on a sick/rainy day. Favorite final boss in gaming and so many standout levels.

@MrDocena
That’d only be true if people weren’t paying for it. Now people aren’t necessarily paying the insane upscale price especially for the raw card but the most recent sold tcgplayer listing is $800 which is still insane for a modern card.

@MrDocena
Prismatic evolutions Umbreon price says otherwise. They will still sell unfortunately.

Coincidentally all the stuff I’ve been playing is on steam and even then I’ve had a busy couple months. The only game I really had going on switch before that was Xenoblade 3 which I have fingers crossed for a switch 2 upgrade on.

@TheExile285
I really wish they would let you remove those. I hate having old demos and other nonsense like that.

@OwenGamer22
The mouse function will be on pc but the switch slightly alters the sequence for two mouses.

@Rhaoulos
I’m still struggling on finding consistent prices for anything. Seriously it’s not that hard for them to take the time to explain this msrp stuff.

Tepig all the way my first starter on my first pokemon game

@HammerGalladeBro the 3ds game unfortunately did not have that future which is a shame. The original was one of my favorite 3ds games as a kid.

I realllly want one of these but I’d prefer a US one so I don’t have to deal with region lock stuff. My 2DS is getting on in years and I really need something bigger and this looks perfect.

@Rozetta
I actually really liked FE2 remake. It’s actually my second favorite behind three houses

This is probably skewed towards the audience of the BAFTA game awards. Ask any random guy off the street chances are they won’t know who Lara Croft is let alone Agent 42. Mario Sonic Pac-Man Pikachu and their ilk are 100% the most recognizable characters due to how well marketed they are. Like you aren’t going to casually see someone in Hitman or Tomb Raider merch but Mario merch is a daily occurrence.

I was in a GameStop yesterday and there was a sign advertising retro system trade ins. Some of the systems listed were the WiiU and PS3.

FF7 was a franchise on its own by the time the remake came along and had much more lore to work on for a fully expanded remake like it got. FF6 does not have that and does not need it. It is one of the closest things to a perfect game that I know. HD 2D would be great but it doesn’t need it. A remake like FF7 would not work.

I watched The Hunt for Red October a couple nights ago and all I could think was that I should drop in for a round on this game. I admittedly didn’t play much but I enjoyed it and am sad to see it go.

Hm on one hand I see the argument I mean that’s the direction that movies and tv shows went but they are different mediums by far. A season of tv takes what 8 hours tops to watch. A game can take up to 60 hours. If you have limited free time it legitimately makes more sense to just buy what you want compared to other mediums.

I have traded in a game only once. I was slightly short on funds tears of the kingdom launch day so I traded in my copy of Terraria for switch. I own it on steam anyhow so it was an easy choice.

I played this at PAX East and really enjoyed it but it slipped off my radar. I should give it a go.

@CaleBoi25
I’d take a switch port any day. I still remember being shocked as a kid with the boss fight thing at the end. As a Final Fantasy fan I was really happy with that sequence.

@Natendo64
Try Mario Sports Mix for the Wii. Played a bit this weekend for the first time in around 3 years and it has a pretty decent if relatively simplistic Hockey game. Base mechanics are there with I believe 9 distinct arenas and 20 something characters.

@Axecon
I got the 80$ model although it didn’t come preloaded. Honestly the 2ds was a steal at that point and I hope someday nintendo has a dedicated handheld again. I’ve had mine for years and I am looking for an upgrade soon as the circle pad rubber fell off but it still works alright. Truly a great console.

This is tempting. I own KOTOR on mobile but I haven’t touched any of the others. May have to get this.

Did I miss something. I hang around these comments sections quite a bit but I have no idea what’s going on.

@Lord
I would assume if any company is buying them it’d be Nintendo. Xbox and platinum have had a rocky relationship since Scalebound was cancelled.
