Gerbwmu

Re: Review: R.B.I. Baseball 18 (Switch)

Gerbwmu

It's a shame because Baseball isnmy favorite sport video game to play. I'll keep out hope for NES Baseball Stars on the 40th SNK collection........or maybe Nintendo will make a MLB game again

Re: Nintendo Says Labo Support Will Continue, Still Trying To Reach A Non-Gaming Audience

Gerbwmu

Labo is a neat idea. I've seen a lot of Kids Creativity Monthly Packs being advertised lately at $29.99 a month for similar items that do not have electronic integration.

I don't think they are far off with the product, but maybe they need a different way of selling it? Maybe it should be $49.99 software and then cardboard items sold separately. Like the toys to life concept.

Or maybe like the toys to life this just isn't going to be as big as its potential?

I do hope they try a few more Labo packs though. If nothing else it should help push R&D into interesting new ideas for non Labo games.

I do think a holiday release would have been better though. I could have seen Labo being one of the "crazy parents fighting over" kind of holiday items.

Re: Review: Fortnite (Switch eShop)

I tried it last night. I think I had fun with the 1 round I played but I got caught in the storm and couldn't get out. Probably should learn to play before I actually play the game.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Make Of The Three Big Pokémon Games Coming To Nintendo Switch?

Gerbwmu

My boys are having fun with Quest. It's free, it's entertaining enough to keep them occupied and they have 3 different versions of the game going.

Let's Go, I think, will be Switches version of Pokemon Snap. It isn't going to be for everyone an obviously the mechanics and style of the game will annoy some of the "Pokemon Purists" but I think it will be enjoyed by most.

My boys were annoyed by the 2019 release date for the mainline RPG Pokemon game. They were both hoping it would be out this year. Having said that, they both want Let's Go and the Poke Ball accessory. I don't know if they will get it but at least for now Nintendo has their attention and they are getting hooked into the Pokemon culture.

I could not care less at this point as I'm a little too old to have Pokemon as nostalgia, but I'm excited for the Fans, that they get 3 games announced overnight and some hype going into the next year and a half for their Switches.

Now if only Nintendo hooks me up with 3 Fire Emblem games for the Switch.......hahaha

Re: Guide: Nintendo E3 2018 Press Conference Schedule, Rumours, Hopes, And Dreams

Gerbwmu

My family would be happy with any of the following:

Fire Emblem to be more along the lines of the radiant series then the 3DS games.

To find out the entirety of games in the SNK 40th collection

Mini NES and SNES collection cartridges for Switch.

Mario Golf

Plants Vs Zombies Garden Warfare II

Pokémon Switch releasing in 2018

Regardless E3 will be fun. I don't expect anything so everything becomes new and exciting.

Re: Review: The Fall (Switch eShop)

Gerbwmu

Really enjoyed this game once I got the hang of it......but no need to double dip on Switch. If you are on the fence, pick it up when it goes on sale. It's worth playing in my opinion

Re: Review: Arcade Archives 10-Yard Fight (Switch eShop)

Gerbwmu

It was great all those years ago but I believe there are far better arcade football games available then this. Don't know if we will ever get them because of licensing and other issues.........but I will hold off in hopes of something better in the future

Re: Sonic Mania Has Sold Over A Million Units Worldwide

Gerbwmu

1 Million is a nice number but I'm a little surprised this isn't 1 Million on Switch or maybe 2 or 3 Million total. Well received and reviewed plus nostalgia seems like it should have sold a lot more then 1 Million. Still it is a good number and hopefully decent money for the developers

Re: Feature: Enjoy The Cardboard Craziness Of These Nintendo Labo Creations

Gerbwmu

The hate for this is sad. It is brilliantly Nintendo and something that should be praised. I'm not buying it, but it doesn't take away from what it is and the enjoyment that so many will get from it. Nintendo is still working on the games that I want, until they are finished I'll play the games I have and enjoy some of the amazing stories and creations that come from Labo that are sure to become regular stories here in NLife

Re: Talking Point: Does Sega's AGES Announcement Mean The Virtual Console Is Dead?

Gerbwmu

To be honest.......I really only want NES, SNES, GBA, and Arcade perfect ports. The N64, Gameboy, DS, 3DS, Wii games would be better suited for some remakes considering how poorly most of that generation has aged. Even the GBA I'm on the fence about....they just don't seem to work as well on the new TV's as much as the NES or SNES games.
Still there are a lot of N64 and Gamecube games I'd love to be able to download if they had a fresh coat of paint and a little love to update their looks.

Re: Talking Point: Does Sega's AGES Announcement Mean The Virtual Console Is Dead?

Gerbwmu

The VC is alive and well, just in a different form. Tons of Neo Geo games, a few Nintendo and other arcade ports, all of them seemingly well done from a porting and development standpoint. Soon to come, Sega games and some sort of online service we still know nothing about. There are plenty of retro options and retro inspired options on the eshop currently for prices that are in line with what VC charged. Would I like access to every game I ever loved as a child/teen/young adult right now......yes......but sadly half are licensing disasters, another 1/4 wouldnt sell to anyone else but me, so the other 1/4 are working their way to my eshop and I will buy them when they arrive.
