Desrever

I said some pretty awful stuff during my young "edgelord" phase trying desperately to be funny, but even then, I only said things like that around friends and knew better than to post it online where everyone can see it.
I grew up, got jobs where I made friends with a wider range of folk, and learned that punching down is rarely funny and that the true nature of humor in its purest form is an excessive use of puns. And I think a love for puns is required for all Nintendo Life readers. Puns are the great uniter. (uniter? I hardly know her!)

The company is too niche for this to be some random online attack. My guess would be disgruntled employee. Unless someone out there was REALLY upset about their shipping delays.

It's a shame that these aren't available in the states, because I really dig these designs and would be willing to spend thousands of cold hard platinum points to collect these.

I went for US solely based on the color composition.

Welcome to America! Sorry that all of our politics are so weird right now.

I still have my Wind Waker pre-order wallscroll from the GameCube days. And while I haven't hung it up in well over a decade, I would try to fish it out of storage so I could hang these 2 symmetrically.

(IF they offer these in the US that is)

Its OBVIOUSLY a trailer for Arc System Works new Faust-centric Guilty Gear spin off game. Day 1 buy

For as much as I've been clamoring on about a Kid Icarus: Uprising remake, it's been long enough at this point that I truly wonder if the game itself was fun, or if I was just charmed by the characters and dialogue.

...I mean... I kinda thought a Crazy Taxi MMO sounded fun.

So just me then? Okay.

The slight tinge of purple shading in that character art really makes it pop.

I gasped louder at this than I did Zelda. I'm a huge X-Fan, and for YEARS Marvel was actively trying to kill off the franchise because of petty squabbles over studio rights. Going as far as editing all mutants out of group shots for Infinity Wars merch.

But those days are behind us and we have been eating good. Even if you weren't a big fan of a the Krakoa era, it undeniably gave the franchise the shot in the arm it needed to pull off something like X-Men 97.

Aside from MvC2 which I could play at my friend's house, all the games in this collection are ones I would get starry-eyed over at the arcade. I'd pop quarters in and get about 3 or 4 fights in before I got humiliated by the CPU. And after all these years, I may finally have my revenge without even having to be all pirate-like about it.

I was worried that we were moving away from the top-down formula, so I was ecstatic to see this revealed.

Also, I can almost guarantee that Zelda will end up with the bow Link was holding. It had a unique design to it, and Zelda's been shootin' arrows for several iterations now. And with the focus being about summoning monsters to fight, then it makes since to stay in the back row and lend ranged support rather than bumping into your own monster to try and hit the same enemy.

I was late to the game on picking up Gris, and loved it. Played through it a couple times, but I agree that it can be a bit slow (which I totally get is part of the appeal)

This game looks fantastic, though. The slow unfurling of rich environments from Gris is clearly still at the heart here, but the gameplay seems a lot more engaging. And I'm such a sucker for games featuring li'l guys as companions. And that Neva is quite the li'l guy. I'm very excited for this one.

I honestly don't mind the Switch's graphics output... however... my TV isn't all that spectacular. (1080p - 36") So when I'm playing on a friend's gigantic 4k television, the jump from PS5 to Switch can be quite jarring.

I worked at a graphic design/printing company for several years, and just about everything that's popped up on MyNintendo can be printed in bulk pretty cheap from a site like Moo or 4over. Really just need a vector graphic or a 300dpi raster image and that's about it.

Not to discredit any of the criticisms from the previous comments here, but I will say that the Devolver Direct is usually worth the watch. The games are quality, and the presentation is pretty fun.

I wonder if Steam Powered Girrafe will be doing any tunes for this one. They really knocked it out of the park in the original Heist, but I could see how they might be leaning towards something with a "sea chanty" vibe this time around.

Amateurs! If they really want to run with the big dogs of the game industry, they should take all that extra money they've saved up to buy up as many indie studios as they can afford, then promptly shut them down and lay off all employees.

Howzit holding up?

-How many of your joycons are drifting?
-Is there a gap in the top of your switch caused by battery bulging?
-Are there cracks in the plastic from getting too hot?
-Have you ever had to send it in to Nintendo for repairs?
-Have you modded your system in any way?

I'd be very interested in taking this survey just to see where this particular community is at as we approach thr post-mortem stages.

The man clearly knows what the best X-Men era was, and for all the right reasons. So if that's a source of inspiration then I'm already way more interested.

Midnight Suns was far more "Fire Emblem: Three Houses" than it was "XCom". It really caught me off guard at first, but then after asking Blade to help decorate for Magik's birthday party, I relented to the silliness, and ended up thoroughly enjoying that game. It really is a shame it never made it to Switch.

"Can I offer you a nice Garlic clove during these trying times?"

I just recently picked this game up. Looks like my timing was perfect!

The trailer didn't grab me right off the bat, but I have enough faith in the publishers to go in blind and judge for myself.

Between the board game just releasing, and the sequel coming in 2025, if yall haven't given Slay The Spire a try, now is definitely the time.

If we're talking short and sweet, the OG Steamworld Dig. Even shorter? Sayonara Wild Hearts!

But my ultimate answer is Hades. Solely because what someone may consider "beating the game" can refer to one out of 3 or 4 different goals. Choose the goal that's right for you!

I'm very interested to see what they settle on for the code name, so that I'll have an idea what the emulator will be called.

I finally got my hands on Midnight Suns after holding out for a Switch port. It was way more "Three Houses" than I was expecting, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

This might be the closest we'll get for Switch. Looks fun, though!

This game sounds so cool! And there's a cartridge version for the NES? Neat! I'll hop on ebay and pick up a copy or two after I get paid tomorrow.

Talk to a Juggalo

I haven't touched this game in months, but watching this clip gave my the itch to build random contraptions and uncover some Koroks along the way.

With over 1000+ Pokémon now days, it's extremely helpful to get a head start on your collection as early as possible.

Now, I just wait for them to cater to the geriatric demographic so that the pokemon company can literally earn money off of a fan for their entire life span.

There's this one game that was released at the beginning of Switch's life cycle, so naturally the more "mainstream" games took the spotlight.

I'm talking about a little game called Vroom in the Night Sky

Once upon a time, I made a Twitter account just for posting Zelda haikus. I haven't updated it in years, but it's very much on topic, here:

I can understand why the cost of physical games would go up, but it's ridiculous to apply those same principles to digital purchases.

Especially after Wii U/3DS going offline has made several titles become "Lost Media".

Oh lord. I can already see my free time fading away before my eyes

"For some of us... the console war never ended"

While I really wasn't expecting much outside of a name change and logo rebranding, I'm starting to think that something was lost along the way when they moved on from Image & Form making quaint little SteamWorld titles.

(More like BLUNDERful, amirite?)

I think we finally have a contender to win GOTY over Super Mario Bros 2.

Mastahpiece.

This may be the only game I'm actually holding out for a release on mobile for. I think the creator said it's in beta

@Nidorom In all fairness, it didn't hook me either... at first. The first several playthroughs will look nothing like your later runs.

This game is rated B for BAD BOIZ ONLY

@Haruki_NLI I think this is surrounding the whole PEGI drama where they think there's a gambling context to the game, which is an automatic 'adult' rating.

I'm very interested, but this might be one of the rare cases where I hold out for a mobile release

I'm having fun with it. The cons mentioned are issues I've already noticed crop up.

I love getting lost in roguelikes. Slay the Spire, Hades, and Dead Cell are some of my favorites in the genre. Side Order, unfortunately, does not stack up to any of these in the slightest.

I've played the Bit.Trip collection on 3DS, and have Runner3 on Switch. Had a blast with them. I didn't think of it as an 'incomplete' trilogy, but I guess now I gotta get 2 just for the sense of completion.

I feel like Commander Video was revving up to be an Indie star, then all the hype sorta of collapsed around him. He was even in Smash!

Fantastic news!!! Can't imagine playing this without stylus controls though.

@johnvboy FINALLY! All this chatter about the cherry flavor had me thinking that people didn't know that Pacific Cooler is in fact the best.

For those curious, the key item required to unlock adventure mode can be found on the Boss Rush stage after surviving for 10 minutes (or maybe it was 15min? Its hard to tell the passage of time in that game)

I was always going to give them my money. Even if it was bad. But THIS...? A rougelike element that can be replayed?
I'm gonna spend so so so many hours on this. I need to try and beat a couple games by the end of February to clear some room off my plate.

That's a very business savvy way of saying "Boy, we really blew it on that whole NFT thing, and now we have to cancel half our projects"

As a gameplay mechanic, I didn't enjoy the EMMI segments as much, but these amiibo are top notch. Honestly, the Metroid series all came out fantastic.
