Maybe we can hope for a patch fix that'll take care of these issues. It just feels weird that a 2.5d game like this operates lower and one like...Contra Rogue Corps 🐼 plays smoothly by comparison.
Perfection, as predicted. Will just be waiting for Amazon to bring it to my door Tuesday afternoon. Then it'll be this, pizza, and marathoning the original movie trilogy and the 2007 CGI animated TMNT film. 🤘🍕🐢🤘
Same as what @Pillowpants mentioned. The Crimson Heads. Specially when you're not thinking about it and pass by what you assume is a downed zombie you put down shortly ago actually turns out to be one that's long since dormant and mutating.
But aside from scares, the one scene that stands out most is the opening intro. The part we never got in it's original gory detail even in the "Director's Cut", Joseph Frost's untimely end with the Cerebus dogs. It's something about the way it's choreographed and played out that stays with me no matter how many times I've played it since 2002. The way the music serenades in a sadly fateful tone as the gang of dogs rip and tear at Joseph's limbs and throat...while the rest of Alpha Team and Jill specifically watch on in frozen horror until one of the mutated mutts turn it's attention to the audience before leaping at Jill for seconds so to speak, as the music changes to the frantic chase to the Mansion. Just those moments in time where you're drawn into the morbid beauty of Frost's grisly death is glorious.
@SnesSwitch Which is totally fine, if you're getting a kick out of it. In addition to said roms, I still own the original boxed complete ZAMN Genesis version mom got for me on my 12th birthday in 1994. 👍
Good thing I own the SMB 3 cartoon complete series on DVD then. ^_^ Along with the Super Mario Bros. Super Show and the complete Zelda series. Delete all you like.
"Arcade masterpieces"....80% of what they put out I have never even -heard- or knew existed, in nearly every actual arcade I've ever been to since growing up. It was great getting Double Dragon, Ninja Gaiden, Sunset Riders, Donkey Kong and even Gradius Trilogies, but can we get something more, recognizable please? Something more amazing from the late 80's, 90's???
@NintendoPok Ah well...kinda a fan right now, as it shows, that and can't return it as it's the Digital Deluxe Edition version of the game I'm getting. ^_^
Done and done. Pre-ordered from Amazon, and with a gift card balance made it only $36. ^_^ Getting it and WWE 2K Battlegrounds same day. 'Tis going to be a lovely September. Yowie Wowie!
Boring. Not gonna sugarcoat it in the least. But the majority of these "masterpieces" are ones I would have never sank a single quarter into if I passed by them in an arcade. Where's Sunset Riders like we were told we were getting??? Why can't The Simpson's or TMNT arcade games get a second life on the Switch? Or Altered Beast, even.
With all the damn American Pie and Scary Movie sequels in existence, Sonic should and better at least get a sequel or two. Fingers crossed we get Chaos Emeralds and Knuckles in the next. We know for sure Tails is in the mix.
Not doubting that it might be a fun game to indulge in, but I'm starting to feel like the "Metroidvania" genre is getting a bit played out, no pun intended.
I'm no Animal Crossing fan but I think the majority can agree that this stranglehold Nintendo has on game save data is a bit atrocious. Having to pay to keep your data in a safe "cloud" or just let it sit on a single console is sad. I miss the days when you could use simple memory cards designed for said system or even a flash drive.
Long live the Switch. I just wish we had the option to put our game save data onto memory cards or flash drives instead of it being locked into the system or pay to have it uploaded to a "Cloud" bank. The only thing that irks me about this system.
That'll be nice. But still wish we could've gotten DooM 64 last month, despite the Eternal setback. Would've made for a nice appetizer for the coming main course.
I would make a minor complaint about why they should bring the Virtual Console onto the Switch for those who would like to actually buy and play these titles OFFLINE, but..having a modded NES and SNES Classic Edition with all the added titles and roms I would like, it's no big deal to me. But still, it would be nice if they took what they did with the Wii/Wii U and implemented it into their best selling current home console yet.
"OHH MY GODDD...F'ING GUMSHOE AND MARIO BROS. IN GRADED HARD PLASTIC BOXES, LIFE IS COMPLETE!!!! I WILL DRILL YOUR KID'S TEETH INTO OBLIVION! Is it safe?"
That's what I get from his expression in that picture. >_>
It'll be sad but at the same time an epic send-off for a game that has been a massive, fun success. Probably the only game I've ever bought digitally for 3 consoles, and physically twice. Chances are I may end up getting the Switch physical version should they make it available at some point.
