Well priced Switch version with free S2 upgrade? Yes please.

Preordered.

@TheExile285 I was personally hoping they’d give Zelda her HW armor set like they did with Link in Age of Calamity, so yeah the lack of any gameplay-relevant rewards was disappointing.

@SplatRay001 @TheExile285 I guess they could’ve added her as an extra character for game completion, but I don’t think it would make sense to make her playable during the story considering she’s not, uh, present for most of it.

@Anti-Matter from what I’ve heard, they’re statues.

@EarthboundBenjy every DLC up until now has made a previously event-only Pokémon available through normal gameplay. So I’d assume this time it’s Zeraora.

I find this mega hilarious honestly.

The fact it makes perfect sense lore-wise once you learn the origins of Staryu’s and Starmie’s designs is just the cherry on top.

@canaryfarmer When haven't they

@sportymariosonicmixx the site has a selection of screenshots for the game, the review picks a few at random every time you load the page.

To answer your question above, morpheel was my username back then when I posted that other comment, so they were replying to me.

@sportymariosonicmixx nah. For whatever reason they were supplied with screenshots that do not represent the actual final version of the game; those are well known beta screenshots.

The North American one is so iconic

It’s not like it’s the first time they make videos for the sake of video content.

@Anti-Matter it’s because the theme of the event was Machamp vs Hawlucha, not Sawk vs Throh

@KingMike the only way I was able to beat the game was with the “cheat” on the Game & Watch Zelda Edition.

If you hold A when starting or reviving, you get maxed out life, lives, and all stats.

And even then it was super difficult! I did eventually map a quick route to return to the final boss, but only because I had to return so many times to it.

Zelda 1 by comparison is still a joy to play today without any cheap cheats.

@JCLKaytwo they got better as time went on

Well at least we can say there’s nothing divisive about the soundtrack; it’s one of the rare NES classics with what we could consider to be an actually good soundtrack (as opposed to assorted sounds and one or two tracks).

My friend Malamar

If I buy the S2 edition, will that also give me the S1 version, or would I need to buy the S1+Upgrade for that?

Edit: ok since it was cheap I decided to try for myself. The S2 edition did indeed give me both versions.

@CasualTalkRadio the thing is that the switch is and always was a tablet. A tablet that currently fills in the main gap for “dedicated handheld gaming” space in the market.

Meanwhile the rest of the market, the part that doesn’t actually care if their device has dedicated A and B buttons, is pretty ok with gaming on their tablets and phones and don’t see a need to get another dedicated device for something like that.

Not to mention, playing a game on a normal tablet or phone doesn’t mean you must have a data plan or are forbidden from using regular physical controls.

@Coffee-Waffle I do absolutely hope they make a Lite 2.

The standard switch 2 is a bit too massive.

@Coffee-Waffle that gap is currently filled by tablets (and phones). They’re handheld devices, after all.

I bought a pair to preorder the new Pokemon Legends. Hopefully I’ll be able to use the other one for Rhythm Heaven.

@Coffee-Waffle it’s always been a tablet.

@riChchestM delisting doesn’t entail complete erasure.

It simply means the game is no longer available for purchase digitally. But the game itself will remain on Nintendos servers for as long as the service lasts.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant chances are they’d rather have you purchase the latest title instead

This is not really like a narrative driven franchise or anything, Fitness Boxing 3 has the same fundamental gameplay, but with improvements and a different soundtrack.

@VoidPunk sir, this is Kalos

These come out a little bit too fast

@Fillbot longer tail with longer leaf

Aw victreebel is finally getting some love. Good for it!

@Coffee-Waffle it’s a complex situation and nobody really has the full story, but as far as I know Marvelous became able to localize their titles on their own after acquiring XSeed, and so they started doing just that.

According to Natsume, Marvelous quite simply stopped doing business with them one day; making no attempt to acquire the Harvest Moon name or get any sort licensing deal.

(The HM name itself was always fully owned by Natsume since the very beginning, so it was in their best interest to keep the franchise active even without Marvelous)

@Coffee-Waffle Is it really so hard to believe the new Harvest Moon titles could also have fans that like them based on their own merits?

Story of Seasons is over a decade old now, it also has had plenty time to “make a name for itself”, so to speak.

Clearly both franchises are doing well enough.

@Dom_31 there’s a loud minority of people that genuinely seem to hate the games, mostly on principle.

But they’re genuinely getting better.

@KingMike to be fair, the bomb design is busy enough to the point where it’s meaning as the O could be lost for some

The North American one is a true classic.

I don’t think I would’ve tried the game if it was just a blue box with 1 face on it. My brain needs more faces.

Is the new construct Fi? 😯

@sdelfin I think it’s a generational thing for us people who prefer the pixel look.

We were a bit too late to grow up looking at the games properly on old CRTs long enough to get the style to stick in our brains, and too early to get good scanline filters.

For people like this, the pixels we saw through emulation and from using consoles on more modern TVs is the “normal” look.

For some reason the tweet is refusing to load on my phone. Like, even if I click on it.

Edit: took several minutes but I can finally see it yay

@rvcolem1 Yup, it's definitely a 5-10 minutes a day kinda game.

And yes these puzzles get, well, puzzling after level 6 or so.

The puzzles actually grow in difficulty the more you play, they can get quite hard.

I think it’s totally worth the price of admission for the main game. Not so sure about the DLC though, it seems way overpriced.

Joke's on them, I won't get either version.

Yup they still look like TLV and SV alright.

I would’ve been more interested in hearing what’s different from the 3DS releases. If anything has been changed or improved. But getting anything at all is nice I guess.

@Anti-Matter There's way more than just three movies, too many to even remember how many

I've never actually watched the second movie. I have no idea why.

May as well give it a watch when they add it.

Ah how odd, you'd think these would be easy to put out. Well, if it's for the best then so be it.

I am in the small group of people who loved these titles back when they came out. In fact, and don't hate me for it, I enjoyed The Lost Valley far more than anything Marvelous released on the 3DS and Switch (The only exception being Tale of Two Towns, which is actually a DS game anyway). And just to be fair, I also enjoyed it more than any of the following games by Natsume as well, until Winds of Anthos which was great.

.... So, as much as I hate the "Cozy Bundle" name (which they don't mention in the message, so please tell me they dropped it), I'm definitely getting them!

They could perhaps work on the switch 2 using the light sensor.

It would just work with any source of light instead of proper sunlight.

The cheap case I bought in a pinch also has an internal zipper and I hate when cases do that. Like, why do we even need the internal pouch to have a zipper, just make it a flap or add velcro 🙄 or better yet, if the intend is to be sleek and precise, don't add an internal pouch!

Thankfully mine's metal tab rests on the right side of the case, and I was able to sew in a little piece of fabric to add as a barrier when the zipper is closed to protect the joycon.

So the whole point of Eevee EX is having twice the amount of Eevee to evolve.

Did they not notice their truck was a few thousand switch 2 lighter?

Ugh using eels to entice me.

That’s low nintendo.

I'll never turn the steering assist thingy off.

It's the only thing keeping me in the road most of the time.

Honestly the only way I’m getting one of these over a regular digital download would be if they’re on clearance for like a buck.

Seems like an unnecessary extra step and a waste of plastic.
