Re: Soapbox: I Hated Metroid: Zero Mission At First, Until I Loved It

Dpullam

It honestly took me years to appreciate the Metroid series as a whole. My brother had always enjoyed the series, and had played most entries, but I was never able to get into them. Metroid Fusion was the first one that I played that I truly enjoyed, and years after I completed that one, I ended up playing Super Metroid and loved it. I still have so many games in the series to play though, so I have my work cut out for me. I also tried Metroid Prime Remastered and got most of the way through the game, but I ended up getting pretty bored towards the end. I think I mainly prefer the 2D entries in the series. Metroid Dread would probably be the next entry on my list.

Re: Switch Sales Pass 139 Million, Will Be "Main Business" Heading Into 2024, Says Nintendo President

Dpullam

The number of units that the Nintendo Switch has sold up until this point has been pretty incredible. This definitely goes to show that a hybrid device is indeed the way forward for Nintendo, though they have been known to turn our worlds upside down with each console release. I am curious to see how their next hardware looks. I expect a similar item to a Nintendo Switch, but with some crazy additional features.

Re: Talking Point: What's The Best Nintendo Remake Ever?

Dpullam

For me, probably either The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D or The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D. Those to me are a masterclass in remaining faithful to the source material, while still give the games a new life in functionality, and looks.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 3rd)

Dpullam

This is going to be one of those weekends where I'm honestly not really sure what game will end up playing. I have a couple games in mind, but I haven't really been feeling like playing games a whole lot recently. The only two games I would consider would be The Legend of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom on Nintendo Switch or Psychonauts 2 on PlayStation 5. Either way, I hope everyone has a great gaming weekend!

Re: Stardew Valley Creator "Done Adding Major New Content" In Version 1.6

Dpullam

Stardew Valley, the game that keeps on giving. I haven't played the game since I first got it on Xbox One, but all of this new content is great for continual players. I think I would be slightly overwhelmed if I played the game with all of this added content. I am one of those people that want to experience most of a game's content in a reasonable amount of time, and I know this game has more content than I could get through.

I have kind of fallen off playing my PlayStation 5 at the moment, and I have been primarily been playing my Nintendo Switch currently. I have been diving back into The Legend of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom again to continue the storyline, and explore some more areas I haven't seen. I also have plenty of great quests to continue and I have been having fun playing the game in different ways each time I take a break and come back. I hope everyone has a great gaming weekend!

Re: Talking Point: Do You Want To See Colourful Cartridges Return For 'Switch 2'?

Dpullam

I would probably say yes as long as it doesn't hike up the prices. I think colorful cartridges made the Nintendo 64 a more enjoyable system to play. As an example, popping in a yellow cartridge for Donkey Kong 64 made that game stand out in comparison to some others. The same goes for Spider-Man 64. One of my all time favorite games, and I adored the red cartridge on that one.

Re: 'Switch 2' Launching This Year With 8-Inch LCD Screen, According To New Analyst Rumour

Dpullam

Backwards compatibility will determine when I end up purchasing the next Nintendo console. I still have a bunch of Nintendo Switch games that I need to play/purchase before I am ready to move onto the next generation of Nintendo hardware. Having backwards compatibility would allow me to buy one at launch (if I have the money) without worry. I am not too hopeful on that feature being present in the first place though.

Re: It's Official, 3DS And Wii U Online Play Ends 8th April 2024

Dpullam

Absolutely the end of an era. I never really played my Wii U online very much, but there were so many instances where I was playing most of my Nintendo 3DS library online on a regular basis, and I met some cool people that way. It helped that the Nintendo 3DS had a pretty stellar catalogue of games after the first year of its launch. Too many great games to count.

Re: Surprise! Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is Getting Even More New Spirits

Dpullam

I am kind of surprised that Super Smash Bros Ultimate is still getting new spirits, especially from the titles listed. Very cool for those still playing the game, though I didn't get too far into the other game modes. I mainly only really like to play the game with my kids. Tag-teaming our adversaries is so fun at times.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Metroid

Dpullam

I am definitely voting for the North American Classic Series even though it isn't exactly representing the final product. I just love the realistic Samus armor, and think it would make for a great box art on somebody's shelf.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 13th)

I will be continuing my journey through Psychonauts 2 on PlayStation 5 and I will be enjoying every minute of it. I have finally gotten out of the initial hub area and I am able to explore to my heart's content. I also completed the main story in Super Mario Bros Wonder on Nintendo Switch last night and I was pretty pleased with the final boss fight. I still have more levels to complete, and secrets to collect. And even though I am playing 2 platformers, they are distinctly different in many ways, which is helping keeping me interested. Happy gaming everyone!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 6th)

I finished Lies of P on PlayStation 5 yesterday evening, and I ended up starting Psychonauts 2. I have been enjoying revisiting all of the characters from the first game, as well as meeting some new ones. I have barely gotten started though! Many more adventures to be had. Happy gaming everyone!
