@rjejr due to the way terrain is generated, you may already notice how existing caves in BotW seem more tacked on to the world instead of being part of it. I can definitely see how building an extensive underground system would’ve been difficult to to accomplish in time.
I was on a Game and Watch kick a little while ago, I really wish I had a few actual real G&W units.
A new collection would be nice, or another entry in their new “color screen” series too. The Zelda model is actually my favorite way to play TLoZ, though I’m not sure there’s any other NES games that I would want to buy a specific handheld device for.
But what I truly want, is re-releases of the original hardware.
@Themagusx1 huh. This would be a weird counterpoint to that, since technically that would make any and every piece of media that has been dubbed to different languages “diverse”.
Like, it’s a given fact that movies dubbed to different languages will be dubbed using different people.
As a bit of a contradicting fun fact, for The Lorax, Danny DeVito voiced his character in Spanish too (and a few other languages as well!). He did it without being a fluent speaker by reading phonetical translations, which gives him a fairly unique sound.
@Rayquaza2510 yeah the pricing is weird. With FS20 at least you could say it’s because it’s also a retail release, but I haven’t been able to find any physical preorders available for this version.
On the flip side though, based on my own experience with both versions of FS20, the game on the Switch seems better optimized. On iOS, it feels like my fairly up-to-date iphone and ipad skip frames even on the lowest settings, while the Switch plays it with no hiccups at all.
It’s one of those rare NES games that still hold up fairly well, and can be enjoyed as games on their own right.
That said, I don’t think a remake would be able to get far enough into development without becoming a new game midway through. It’s just so, huh, basic that any attempt to modernize it will change too much.
It’s too bad that it seems devs could not make special offers on DSiWare software, I’m sure it would’ve remained more relevant throughout the years had they had the ability to discount their prices every now and then, to make them more visible.
@acuphoria updates on the 3DS can be a bit convoluted. It might be in the updates section of the eshop’s menu, or it could also be in the shop itself as a separate “software”. Try searching for it on both.

We must support and protect Addison at all costs.
Even if it means surrounding him with boulders.

I misread that as handsome
Re: The Master Ball Is Coming To Pokémon GO Next Week
@Aerona @Greatluigi @Joeynator3000 yeah in Let’s Go using it actually starts a cutscene, it doesn't let you fail.
It wouldn’t be surprised if they do that here too.
Re: The Super Mario Bros. Movie Breaks More Box Office Records Around The World
What can I say, we like fun movies.
But, Madre mía, that’s a lot of people going to the cinema.

Re: Feature: "What If The Celebrated Detective Was Actually A Bit Of A Bumbling Fool?"
Cool concept. They should make a movie franchise out of it.

@Serpenterror huh and what did the luigi voice actor say that needs shutting up?

It looks like a good improvement over the last one

Oh that’s a shame, his work while at Nintendo was quite iconic. Here’s hoping he continues doing well.

Re: Samba De Amigo: Party Central's Song List Has Ariana Grande Headlining
Looks like a nice selection of pop music and salsa/samba style songs.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Final Fantasy IV (DS)
@Tasuki true it is a metallic logo. However the European one somehow became the most recognizable one of the bunch.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Final Fantasy IV (DS)
As much as I respect Amano’s art style, I have to admit I’ve never really “liked liked” it. The European one wins this one for me.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of The New Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Font?
It’s the better option. Though it can be small at times.

Re: Poll: Which Was Your First 'Final Fantasy'?
My first was Dawn of Souls on the GBA!
I really loved having the music player.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Professor Layton And The Curious Village
It’s kinda like the opposite of the Zelda covers. There America gets the classy monochrome covers, and Europe gets the fancy character art.
Re: Quiz: Can You Guess Which Game Industry Figures Said These Quotes?
7/14!
Got lucky with the last one.
Re: Random: Of Course People Are Thirsty For Ganondorf In Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom
@Not_Soos I don't quite see the TP, but he looks a lot like the design from WW to me.
Perhaps like a combination off all three major designs? It’s fitting I suppose, considering they’re all the same person.
Re: Random: Of Course People Are Thirsty For Ganondorf In Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom
They did hydrate him after all

Ok, so… Poochy can drive!?
Re: SteamWorld Series Creator Admits 3DS eShop Closure Is A Little Bit "Upsetting"
It’s too bad that it seems devs could not make special offers on DSiWare software, I’m sure it would’ve remained more relevant throughout the years had they had the ability to discount their prices every now and then, to make them more visible.
Re: Yes, The Super Mario Bros. Movie Will Have A Post-Credits Scene
Daisy will come in, battle ready, kicking their door down, saying they’re needed again
