So instead of just adding online multiplayer to the version already available, like on the PS4, they decide to release an "Ultimate' edition. Feels like a Capcom move...
@Vyacheslav333 I too hope there's a discount but I wouldn't bet on it.
I’m perfectly fine with my main characters: Pyra/Mythra and Joker.
But I do miss the reveal trailers not just for the character but I thought they were pretty cool and I enjoy watching Ragged Knowledge’s reaction compilations on YouTube.
I don’t do social media but I at least hoped to take a screenshot of really cool moments past that date in particular; I just finished the game for the nth time (first on Switch, rest on PS3/4), so I hope there’s no restrictions on New Game Plus.
@OptometristLime Golden Sun being referenced made me click on the article. Any comparison to that series is a high compliment, I hope this game does well whenever it’s released.
Finally! Been waiting forever for Pyra and Mythra; I wish it would’ve been Mio and Eunie but maybe XBC3 amiibos will release with their respective Ouroboros partners instead.
Score seems decent enough; it’ll probably be higher once patches/updates are released to tweak the gameplay. WayForward usually drops top quality games so NL’s score won’t stop me from getting this sequel.

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library With Two More Titles
Still waiting for the Sonic Advance games…
Re: Legendary Fighting Dev Is Hosting Its Own 'Direct' Later This Week
@Djreisat Same. Feels…off…with Switch version not having current DLC characters like Venom and Unika.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Dev Used Procedural Generation To Manage 100,000 Different Assets
Is that why I had to travel EVERY INCH in a new area so the maps can procedurally generate? Ugh I hated doing that especially in New Game Plus.
I prefer the preloaded maps in Xenoblade Chronicles 2; way better IMO.
Edit: I’m curious on how (if) they’ll make improvements in the Switch 2 versions.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's SNES Library With Four More Titles
@Kraven Nice reference with G.I. Joe on NES; one of my favorites back in the day.

Re: You'd Be Forgiven For Thinking 'Comix Zero' Is A Sequel To A Mega Drive Classic

Re: Switch Online's "Mature" Nintendo 64 App Is Now Available In The West
@Teksetter I hear you but it seems kinda unnecessary; plus I’d like to have both Goldeneye and Perfect Dark in the same app. Oh well…
Re: Video: For 365 Days, We Took Our 2DS Everywhere Just For StreetPass
Ooh yeah I tried that at a local comic-con; I had zero results though. It's unfortunate as I too wish to complete my puzzles.

Re: Talking Point: Would A Third Wave Of Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC Have Been Too Much?
I’m perfectly fine with my main characters: Pyra/Mythra and Joker.
But I do miss the reveal trailers not just for the character but I thought they were pretty cool and I enjoy watching Ragged Knowledge’s reaction compilations on YouTube.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions
European version just looks more awesome.

They’ve been saying that since the NES days; did they think we’d listen now?! 😆
Re: Nintendo Sees Potential In The Metaverse, But Thinks It Would Be 'Difficult'
I read metaverse and thought of Persona 5 Royal 🤷🏾♂️

Now make Lyn a playable character in the next Smash game and I’ll be really happy.
Re: Review: Dr. Fetus' Mean Meat Machine - A Bit Of A Grind
Eh I’ll stick with Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine.
Re: Atlus Relaxes Persona 5 Royal's Strict Streaming Guidelines
I don’t do social media but I at least hoped to take a screenshot of really cool moments past that date in particular; I just finished the game for the nth time (first on Switch, rest on PS3/4), so I hope there’s no restrictions on New Game Plus.

Re: Talking Point: Which Gaming Moments Made You Question Your Intelligence?
Two instances for me:
Resetting the computer in X-Men for the Sega Genesis where you had to literally press the Reset button on the console itself.
Defeating an enemy in Phantom Hourglass, where you had to put the DS into Sleep mode by closing the system.
Re: Meg's Monster Is A Retro-Style Turn-Based RPG Where You Can't Let The Little Girl Cry
Interesting concept. I’ll definitely look for this on the eShop.
Re: Best Fire Emblem Games Of All Time
For me, #4 was more about Lyn; Eliwood was kinda boring IMO.

Re: Random: Nintendo Censored Famous Marvel Location In SNES Spider-Man Game

Re: Persona 5 Royal Switch eShop File Size Seemingly Revealed
Except Royal was never released on PS3, just the vanilla version. Best to think of it as PS3 Plus or PS4 Lite. 😎
Re: Soapbox: Forget Marvel, The Perfect Capcom Crossover Is Simpler Than You Think
Capcom vs Skullgirls. Easy.
