Funnily enough, I recently found a cartridge for this game in our storage room. I’m pretty sure it’s a famicom bootleg cart and I’m almost certain we never actually played it (because we had an NES, not a famicom!), but it works perfectly fine despite collecting dust for 30 years.

The game is genuinely fun, in my opinion.

Oh cool, so planting them on the wrong tile is no longer a “start the day over” situation.

Seems like a funny way to say “buy Hogwarts Legacy now or we’ll make the next one a live service game!”

He’s not a Ninja, he’s a Hero.

Different job classes.

The Japanese one looks like a still from an anime or something. Voted American since it seems a bit truer to the game.

@somebread yeah very much this. I didn’t know it was supposed to be opening 😅

@Uncle_Franklin then again, how is this more “like NFTs” than all previous Pokemon TCG apps they’ve had in the past…? (Or any other trading card game, for that matter) The basic functionality seems to be nearly identical, except with shorter battles.

I thought it was Severus Snape with a light saber for a second there

Aw. Japan only.

Hopefully they’ll just randomly release it on other regions.

I’d love a sequel to the let’s go story

I can’t wait for this one. I should probably preorder it now that I think about it.

The little almanac with character bios and preferences is a genius idea. Makes it a worthy companion for Friends of Mineral Town (and apparently there’s also characters and music from the other games? That’s nice!)

@shonenjump86 oooh the genesis app! I totally forgot it existed to be honest. Thanks I’ll check it out there.

@shonenjump86 is Earthworm Jim actually on the switch? Honest question, I’d like to play it.

I love cows, they’re my favorite animal.

I’m not sure how I feel about including One World’s design as a means to diss the game though. Cows are about positivity and love.

Anyway, yes the Bubble Cow is the best cow design ever.

The American one covers the face of the main character.

It loses my vote just for that alone.

@Emacster which one did ya get?

@Woodyshoe III is a good one to begin with. IV and VI and likely regarded as the best ones in the bunch though.

Ah, this coincides with the new updates on mobile (they added the boost options and controller compatibility there). Cool, it’s like a little crossover event between switch and mobile.

@Ogbert I assume it’s imitating that as a way to lean in on the “anomaly” part of the name.

What if they released Plague Knight’s campaign as a stand alone game to celebrate

It’s kinda funny how it started with “idk, maybe just a few minor additions, making modding simpler, etc. Don’t expect too much. ”

After such a long time without Poison type legendaries or mythicals, the recent games have been showing the Poison type a lot of love.

Japan forgot the Mario. Too bad.

I did not expect this to be the new game the dev had been teasing! It’s so cool

The American one is just a classic

Well today is a good day

Any segment in modern Resident Evils when the game removes my infinite rocket launcher.

How am I supposed to beat the hardest difficulties when the game expects me to actually be skilled at it.

Ah cool, maze craze is a fun little quick game

Batman thinks he’s a bird. Man.

That poor village just can't catch a break

I’m far more disturbed by the pig’s snout than the nakedness

Not gonna lie, I love the little sprite sheet style of the European box.

That would’ve made me consider the game a lot more than the profile of a random kid.

Sounds like he perhaps felt intimidated by perceived expectations

@B_Lindz oh. Oof. That’s kinda odd.

I've heard that the final boss is named Smithy and that Peach is playable.

Why is RE4 the PS Game of the Year when it's a multi-platform game?

@Barbiegurl777 I assure you this and the regular versions of the game will only share the farming theme and John Deere license.

I would expect this one to be more like a soundboard with basic early learning activities and cute animations, whereas the regular games are actual farming simulations where you use heavy farming machinery.

I suppose neither would be the kind of story-driven experience you want.

@Tisteg80 This is meant for toddlers and other young children, its not really meant to be a new direction for their Switch versions.

@Barbiegurl777 yes the 3DS had three farming simulator games, but they where the regular mobile phone versions, not any sort of special "for kids" edition.

ah that's a cute idea, took them long enough to figure out they could sell a version for kids

2DS is best DS

I actually keep one new in the box for the time when my current 2DS begins to fail.

Nobody came to Julian’s party

Ah darn, I assumed I had bought the offline modes. Now I can’t. That’s too bad.

I really wish they could just make it work offline to use locally with the 3DS games beyond its online functionality

Ah cool, very seasonal. I mean, not in game, because it’s spring, but eventually.

well that sucks, I was hoping they would last a few good more years

What’s up with Yoshi’s boots in the American one

Oh it’s actually sounding like quite a large update, that’s cool

Of course!

In the tutorial.

@LEGEND_MARIOID I honestly used the shield more as a transportation and general use tool than as… a shield… during my playthrough.

Hot? Take the sapphire shield out. Cold? Use the ruby shield. Going downhill? Oh I have a shield with wheels for that! Want some extra elevation? Pick one from the pile of shields that make you go up.

The Hudson shield is for formal events.

Rocket shielding, the safest method of transportation
