My kids are on the edge of ”outgrowing” (Fortnite-boy and Pokemon-boy) Bluey but it’s been sursprising to see them return to it every now and then. Might get it if they seem keen. If nothing else then for the soundtrack.
Been meaning to do that for a long time. Nowadays, I’ve only got some consoles from the big N so let’s hope Konami feels it is time for a remaster of III as well.
@Greatluigi First two are fantastic, personally missed out on the third, the fourth got bashed for some weird gameplay mechanics but I liked it nonetheless. Fifth is great as well. As acseries it has ups and downs, but this 1+2-package is an instabuy for me. 2 is sooo good.
Avoiding spoilers as much as I can. Anyway, a nice surprise without being so much a spoiler. My then three year old tore the sword arm off of my Shulk Amiibo (I can’t have nice things), hopefully it won’t affect the cosmetics.
I am toying with the idea of starting Xenoblade DE again but it’s hard to find the time so I usually end up playing short bursts of Hades and Binding of Isaac. Those two are closing in on XBCDE and BOTW for total playing time. All of them amazing games.
God, love that game. Should’ve been releaed to the NSO library. Still have it but would not mind playing it again on the Switch. And Terranigma. And Soul Blazer.
Out of the games on the list that I’ve played, I’d go for XBC or Hades. I love Xenoblade to death but Hades might be the top pick, lordylordy has that game well written dialogue and. VA.
Great memories of the wiiu, Nintendoland, wii sports club, zelda remakes, sm3dw, bayonetta 2, xbcx -There were more great games and ideas than what warrants the flop. Mine’s still connected and still gets some playtime by both me and the kids. Also a pity they suspended miiverse. It was fun while it lasted (it still is).
I’ve gone through the series, and outside of 3 and 4 that wasn’t fantastic, the other three are - especially part 2 (an all-timer). I’d jump in on this in a heartbeat. Also, I would like at least Suikoden I and II to be ported.
@RandomNerds No kidding, I’ve sold most of them so it would take a lot of time and effort to collect it all. For now the kids will get their history lesson on the classic minis but I would love for them to try wii sports and boom blox too.
Just got home with the eu collector’s set. Last time was the wii version with the outrageously slick red controller, have to admit this feels special. Have to put opening the thing on hold til the kids go to bed though. Anticipation!!!!
I am impatiently waiting for the text saying that my collector’s set is ready for pickup. Damn posts on reddit stating early access makes it impossible to not hope for it before friday. Ho-hum...
I’m currently shooting through the collection, nostalgia stardom that still holds up - mystic quest done, 2/3 of SoM done and afterwards I’ll be going through SD3. Would probably get this straight away if XCDE wasn’t launching in a month. I’ll get this after that then.
Also a bit miffed that Collection of Mana didn’t include Legend of Mana - nice time-killer with an undeserved bad rep though not as good as SoM and SD3. Oh well.
@skulltulips It is really fun, though the d-pad+run+jump seems like a hard lesson for him. Still golden moments on saturday morning before the others wake up
As it happens, this game sprung to mind this morning, not sure why. In any case I booted up the Mario Galaxy Suite on youtube for some nodtalgia. Just how good can a soundtrack get when you get all soft and squishy upon hearing the bit from gusty garden. And this has been played countless times bur I still get instant goosebumps. Fantastic game.
I bought Fifa18 on one of the sales and have to say it’s a great game to have on the NS. It’s one of the best hybrid fits since console launch tbh, works so well in handheld, tabletop and docked
SinceI did my time on Hyrule Warriors back on the Wiiu and they released Pirate Warriors about the same time I went for that one. It’s much the same, time-management in a package of fan-service and wild action - and they’re both fun. I’ll be keeping on keeping on when allowed. I’ve been told I’m going to put up a small picket fence in the backyard today.
I`m booked on a small hotel retreat and my SO would kick my ass so hard if I brought the Switch so not much for me. I did however make some progress on MarioRabbids on friday, the game somehow got left a bit cold when SMO and XC2 launched stealing all attention. M+R is a fantastic game so I`m glad I`ve returned to finish it.

Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed For Tomorrow, 8th February
I’d be interested in a launch date for Suikoden remaster, but it’s probably not the right forum.

I should get more old arcade titles, so far I’ve only got Turf Masters. It is awesome.
Re: Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Games Of 2020
Happy to see so many apreciating one of my all time favourites xbc. Also good to see Hades in top 3, it’s brilliant.
But all in all, people play what they like to play - as they should.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 29th)
Getting further into epilogue of Xenoblade, also gotten hooked anew on Binding of Isaac. High quality combination of short burst and longer sitting.

Re: Feature: So, Who's Next For Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?
I wouldn’t mind some more Final Fantasy in Smash - how about Kefka? Or Chocobo?
Other than that I hope that Sakurai overall will pick characters with pedigree rather than someone a newer one.

I’ll check the review and get it if it as good as PW3. Enjoyed it quite a lot
Re: Square Enix Has Just Filed A Trademark For Collection Of Mana In Europe
