Motion controls fizzled into nothing? I must've missed that memo, I find them pretty standard for aiming now, in BOTW etc. etc., I believe it was this very website that taught me how to turn them on in Pokemon Legends: Arceus and improved my experience. Praise Wii
Don't worry @Ryu_Niiyama, it's not canon! And I suppose the plot ramifications of where the intrepid Isabelle has found herself during the events of this saga are secondary to the Incredible animation and sound work.
Your experience sounds very close to my own, regarding Zelda and it really is about time I played through ALTTP fully on the switch online service... The mii in the screenshots looks like an eldritch salad fingers nightmare.
I finally got around to playing this properly on the Switch Online service and agree that seeing it through to the end is incredibly rewarding. underrated.org
Criminally underrated console, and I'm sorry that people don't understand this but Nintendo Land is the killer app Wii Sports was AND THEN SOME. Maybe it didn't sell as many copies, but the asymmetrical gameplay with the game pad was on another level that even the mighty switch hasn't reached.
I already have Castlevania and picked up Contra at that price. The only reason I can think of to get the Arcade Classics is that as a Brit taking advantage of the US e-shop, you can't use a European debit card or paypal account to pay and there's still $5.01 left of the $10.00 prepaid card I bought from playasia in the first place. Unless somebody knows of something better to spend my dollar on?
@ToadBrigade At least it's in Top 5, New Super Mario Bros. Wii is far, far too low... Being beaten by The Beatles Rockband and Bit Trip Runner among 30-odd others.
I bought Strife from a computer fair with my pocket money back in the 90s, me and my brother loved it without realising quite how good it was! Looking back now it stands leagues above its contemporaries and well ahead of its time. Multiple endings with an intriguing story, my fondest memories of playing this (as a boundary pushing child) seem to be of trying to killing the villagers with poison tipped arrows without the guards noticing!
Nintendo Land is a million times better than Wii Sports! The tennis was great tbf, but the fact that more people played it doesn't automatically give it it killer app status. Nintendo Land should have come bundled in with the Wii U and if it it did (and if the console shifted in Wii-sized numbers) I don't think there would be any competition. Mario Chase anyone?
Found myself disappointed by Octopath which is a shame because I wanted to love it. And the art style and music can't be faulted to be fair to it... but the story was severely lacking or engaging.
