Re: Charles Martinet Will No Longer Be The Voice Of Mario

Dpullam

A sad day for Mario fans everywhere. I can't even think about any Nintendo properties without thinking of him and the contributions he has made to some many classic titles. At the same time though, he most certainly deserves to retire and enjoy his life. Being a Mario Ambassador sounds pretty darn cool to me.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 5th)

Dpullam

I will be playing Hogwarts Legacy on PlayStation 5 with any free time I am given. I have been addicted to it for about a week now, and I have been enjoying roaming around Hogwarts finding every little secret and bit of dialogue I can. There is so much to unravel or complete in this game. I don't think i am too worried about 100% completion though. I am just enjoying a lot of what the game offers, and also the world building it provides. An excellent game, to be sure.

I am a little late to the part again but I ended up playing The Artful Escape on PlayStation 5 and scored the platinum and enjoyed the game immensely.

After I finished that, I started my first foray into Demon's Souls as well and I have been having a blast in that one. I didn't think I would enjoy a souls game like I enjoy this one and it has been so much fun having to plan each step I take and strategize around the environment and tools available at my disposal. Glad I didn't sleep on this one.

Re: Baten Kaitos' Title Was Initially Disliked By Bandai Namco

Dpullam

This is one of those titles that I have never gotten around to trying out, and even with this collection, I am still unsure if I would play it. I really don't know why. The game just doesn't seem super appealing to me. These interesting facts are always appreciated though.

Re: Soapbox: Getting The Master Sword In Tears Of The Kingdom Is Zelda At Its Best

Dpullam

I think it was definitely one of the more unique ways to acquire the Master Sword in comparison to older titles, but something about The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time's method was the most satisfying for me. It felt more meaningful since there wasn't a weapon break system, and also since the time travel elements tied directly into taking the Master Sword.

Well, I just earned the platinum trophy on Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart last night so I am unsure of what I will be playing on PlayStation 5 though I have a few ideas. On Nintendo Switch I am still playing TOTK and that probably won't change anytime soon.

Edit: I ended up deciding to play Guardians Of The Galaxy on PlayStation 5 and I am enjoying the game very much. It doesn't help that the soundtrack hearkens back to my overall favorite era of music. And watching everyone grow as individuals and seeing them grow as a team has been a blast as well. It is true to the style that GOTG has.

Re: Random: Fan Makes Wii Menu Animations For Switch Games, And The Results Are Brilliant

Dpullam

I think besides more processing power for the next Nintendo console, the only other addition I currently want is more soul in the console's interface. If it has that, I am happy. A catchy menu theme that can optionally be enabled/disabled, personalized background themes, and folder/color palette options would bring a bunch of life to the system and make it feel more like old school Nintendo with practical, modern features.

Re: Round Up: Here's What Switch Fans Are Saying About The Pikmin 4 Demo

Dpullam

I have played all of the Pikmin games multiple times so far, and I know I'll be playing this one too. Probably not close to launch, because I have other things that I'm wanting to do/play, but I will get around to playing it because it looks like an improvement in every single way on the original formula. And they also managed to add a bunch of extra features that will make the game much more enjoyable, and expand what you can do in the game. It is definitely on my to buy list.

Re: Toby Fox Shares Development Update On Deltarune Chapter 3

Dpullam

I haven't even gotten around to playing Undertale yet. If I haven't played that one, there is no reason for me to consider playing this one until I beat that one. They may or may not be direct sequels or anything like that, but I'd rather play the game that started that type of gameplay first, and then see what improvements were made in Deltarune.

Re: Nintendo "Currently Have No Specifics To Share" About Other Legacy Platforms For Switch Online

Dpullam

I wouldn't expect anything like GameCube games to appear any sooner than the next Nintendo console, or even further after that. Judging by Nintendo's past, they like to give us things way after we've asked for them. So I'm not holding out any expectations for a game library of that caliber. Honestly I'm satisfied of what we gotten so far, but the only inevitable step is to move towards the other consoles that haven't had much of their game catalogs released on an emulation service.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Donkey Konga

Dpullam

The North American variant would easily get the most excited to play the game of I saw it at the store. The other two are nice too, but they are missing something that catches my eye.

Re: Review: Sonic Origins Plus - Not Bad, But Sonic Still Deserves Better

Dpullam

I personally am going to just skip on this one and wait for Sonic Superstars and hope that games ends up being good. I've liked what I've seen so far from the gameplay videos, but I won't know for sure in my opinion on it until I see some reviews start rolling in. I kind of wish they would release a demo so people could try it before buying it like they did with some of the other Sonic games. Perhaps they still will.

Re: Pikmin 4 Will Let You Erase Your Mistakes With A Handy New Rewind Mechanic

Dpullam

I can see the feature being a useful addition for certain instances in the game, but I can't see myself using it a whole lot as a whole. I think it kind of devalues the time management, resource management, and overall gameplay that it's supposed to be offering. I can definitely see the appeal for younger players though. It might allow more players to get into the franchise. A fresh generation.

Re: E3 2024 And 2025 Have Supposedly Been Cancelled

Dpullam

It is probably time to accept that E3 will never again be like its glory days from its earlier years. I had many great memories watching the broadcasts on TV with my brother while enjoying lunch when I was a kid, but I now understand that the market has simply changed, and new ways need found to restore some of that magic. The recent Nintendo Direct rekindled my excitement for live broadcasts with how good it was. I got the feels quite a bit while watching that presentation. So much to be emotional and get excited for. For my family as a whole, not just me.

Re: Nintendo And Illumination Thank Fans For Supporting The Super Mario Bros. Movie

Dpullam

Getting to see this movie with my kids in a packed movie theater of excited parents and children is a memory that I'll never forget. And the movie delivered on all levels as far as I'm concerned. I'm excited to see what they do with it inevitable sequel. I am also excited to see what they will do with a future Legend of Zelda movie. Other of Nintendo's franchises are also welcome as well. There's a lot of lore they can build off of in just about every major Nintendo franchise.
