Re: Puma Looks Ready To Pounce On Super Mario's 35th Anniversary With Some Nintendo-Branded Sneakers

Too bad Nintendo won’t talk about or discuss what games they have in the pipeline for 2020, because F the fans right? My Switch gets used for the occasional check in with my villagers in Animal Crossing and some Pokémon battles with my friends every so often and that’s about it. Absolutely disappointing year for Nintendo releases. There’s like zero momentum for the console after Animal Crossing and Xenoblade dropped.

Probably just gonna be playing The Witcher 3 again on PC, with some Valorant matches here and there. Then probably check in with my villagers in New Horizons and maybe a little bit of Modern Warfare on PS4. So much for that Nintendo Direct this week, am I right? 🙄 Not surprised it was a load of bull, but I’m honestly getting fed up with Nintendo’s silence at this point. Absolutely no excuse for it, man.

Lmfao, I’m getting so sick of Nintendo’s drip feed bullsh—. Silent for months, then they finally drop a Pikmin 3 Deluxe trailer. So do they plan on finally discussing the remakes/remasters soon, or is it gonna be another several months of waiting for a 3 minute trailer confirming they exist? Nintendo really dropped the ball after Animal Crossing came out in terms of releases.

Re: Feature: Upcoming Nintendo Switch RPGs To Look Out For In 2020

I wouldn’t exactly call Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles an RPG by any stretch. The only RPG elements I really remember from that game was being able to get better weapons/armor. I never finished it because the final boss fight(s) were absolute bullsh—. Not a bad game, but not exactly one to write home about either.

I know they’re having trouble with game development due to Covid and all but... come on man! Surely they have SOMETHING they can show us for f—ks sake! Are y’all really gonna let Xbox and PlayStation hog the limelight? Announce the Mario remasters already, show us a teaser of something new y’all are brewing up, and for god’s sake give us a new Breath of the Wild sequel trailer already! It’s been a little over a year now since anything has been said about that game.

Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition - A Timely Update Of One Of The Greatest RPGs Ever

I cannot wait to play the ultimate version of one of my favorite all time games! No way am I gonna have it beat before The Last of Us pt. 2, but that’s fine, because I know I’ll come back to it if I don’t finish by then. Since they’ve made adjustments to side quests, I’ll definitely be more inclined to do the vast majority of them this time around instead of endlessly grinding the same high level enemies over and over to level up and progress the plot haha. Advice for first timers, stick with it! If you get to a particularly tough section where you’re under leveled, grind for a bit or do side quests, and upgrade your arts and armor/weapons. Also doesn’t hurt to figure out how you wanna play, because there’s so much choice in how to approach combat thanks to the plethora of party members you meet along the way. But stick with it, because the story is so worth it.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of The Nintendo Direct Mini?

JesWood13

Bet they’re saving huge announcements like Zelda for a huge June Direct. Slightly bummed but it was still a good watch! Can’t wait to play through Xenoblade Chronicles again with new content, and Ninjala looks pretty sweet! A melee only battle Royale style game with Splatoon like graphics, count me in!

Re: Famitsu Survey Reveals 88% Of Readers Intend To Purchase The Pokémon Sword And Shield Expansion Pass

Like I’ve said, it’s better than paying $60 for an Ultra version or 3rd game, or sequel games like Black 2/White 2. We get more content, more Pokémon, so why the initial hate to begin with? I love Sword/Shield, first Pokémon game in years I’ve sunk 150 hours into over the course of two months. I was initially disappointed about the national dex missing, but once I started playing, that didn’t matter to me. Max Raid battles and the competitive side of it have me hooked and wanting to constantly build teams and improve upon them, and I’m sure I’ll sink a hundred or more hours into it before and after the expansions come out.
