Damn people really are willing to drop 50 bucks on a game that came out 13 years ago when you can buy it for less than half of that on an Xbox or a physical for even less at a local game store. Y'all are the reason game companies don't put any effort in anymore
I'm fully back in zelda after taking a break so the rest of my summer is booked gaming wise. After that it'll be school so I won't be playing anything for a while, but I think I'll get to pikmin 4 eventually
@norwichred Most people didn't even own a wii u, and they did make some changes to the game as well as included all the dlc. A lot of people found that to be worth buying again and that's their business.
Also the dlc is a one time purchase for $25, if you already have the Nintendo online subscription+ expansion then you can play these tracks as a bonus. You aren't being forced to pay a subscription to play them.
Don't blame them at all, I don't see why anyone would put a new third party title on switch in 2023, better to wait for nintendo to put out a new system that can actually keep up with the next gen performance- wise.
Eh, I dont really care what makes a traditional zelda game, there shouldn't be a checkbox that ninetendo has to fill out for every new zelda. On that note, botw is not only my favorite zelda but my favorite game of all time, so I'm not gonna complain
Even though I never bought one and thought they were stupid I kinda miss them. Probably because it was in the early days of the switch and there was so much excitement for the new gen still
I'm a mario kart purist and never grew up on Disney so I couldn't possibly care less about the game itself, although this is the newest example showing that we DESPERATELY need a more powerful switch.
@Ryu_Niiyama why should they when it would take much more time/money to make a quality version on switch compared to newer systems when the switch playerbase is probably extremely small. Doesn't make sense, and if you want to play online shooters you probably aren't gonna be playing on switch.
Undoubtedly my favorite part is when mario literally strangles Donkey Kong with his own tie, my friends and I couldn't stop laughing it was so ridiculous.
Elden Ring had somehow sucked me in again, after taking my longest ever break from it (6.5 months) I couldn't fight the urge to jump back in anymore. The world, the combat, the bosses... Elden Ring is the best game I have ever played next to Breath of the Wild
I'm torn on this. On one hand this game will be higher quality with more content than any other $70 game, but on the other hand it's on a system that can't handle more than 1080p 60fps. Overall I'm okay with it given that its inevitable but if nintendo wants to release more titles at that price it better be on some better hardware
@Dev9417 I think Kirby games are easy to a fault, which is why I've never been able to get into the series. Not that I'm all that upset about it because it's geared for kids, but when a game is so easy that it becomes boring I think that's a valid con, at least for me
Maybe once I get through my backlog, I've never played a fire emblem before so I'm hesitant on giving engage a shot. It'll take months to clean up the games I've piled up so once that and totk is taken care of if I still really want to try it I will.

Re: Random: Mario Movie Illegal Upload Watched By Millions On Social Media

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 18th)
Elden Ring had somehow sucked me in again, after taking my longest ever break from it (6.5 months) I couldn't fight the urge to jump back in anymore. The world, the combat, the bosses... Elden Ring is the best game I have ever played next to Breath of the Wild

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel: Panic Bomber (Virtual Boy)
