Re: Best Mario Kart Games Of All Time

MK64 was and always will be my favourite. It had the most impact to me, great courses and the gameplay was perfect.
Technically MK8D is the best, although I feel like MKW will take that title soon, there's so much room for upgrades and DLC in MKW.

Re: "We MUST Resist Buying These Game-Key Releases", Says GamesMaster Host

@Anti-Matter didn't say every game, just some. It's pretty common now with larger games, as otherwise they'd be multiple discs. It's just a cost saving thing. With Switch the larger carts cost more, and having multiple carts with cost even more. Pretty simple.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a physical collector and have been since the N64, but unfortunately this is the current situation due to the data sizes of games now

Re: Poll: Are You Bothered By The Frame Rate In Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom?

I've barely noticed it in Echoes, and when it has it only seems to occur in the open world so not really an issue. Link Awakening was slightly worse, but again still perfectly playable. People stating 'I won't play it coz of the frame rate' are missing out on a great game. I could list many many games of the past that received 9 or 10 out of 10 scores that have much worse issue than this.

Re: Switch Online's Latest N64 Release 'Perfect Dark' Appears To Have Some Emulation Issues

I'm about half way through the Campaign now and haven't noticed anything other than a few frame rate drops/sound glitches, same as the original (which I still own and have played recently), but these are few and far between. The dizzy effect is the same as the original as, it's supposed to be like that! Multiplayer with bots runs fine as well and is as fun as it used to be.
As for the controls it plays perfect with the N64 controller as expected, and if you re-map you can use dual sticks perfectly as well.

Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online N64 Library With Excitebike 64

@HalBailman This argument is getting old. If you brought these separately you'd get 4-5 at best to the price of the annual subscription, which includes 100's of games plus other online service features. It's a bargain @ $4 a month. Tell me you don't have any other subscription services, it's exactly the same.
If you don't want to subscribe don't, just because it doesn't suit your needs doesn't be it's not good.
