Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (14th December)

I spent such a good time beating all the Mega Picross Puzzles in Picross S Genesis And Master System, so I decided to revisit an old classic before diving into Namco Picross: I'm playing Castlevania Circle of the Moon from the Advance Collection. Not the greatest Symphony of the Nightesque Castlevania, but a really solid game which helped paved the way for what would come out later on the GBA and DS.

And I'm also playing DKC Tropical Freeze in short bursts trying to 100% it. It's gonna be a long way until I do it, but it's such fun work

Re: Review: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind (Switch) - The Mightiest Morphin Ever

Being from the UK, the name 'Rita' never quite sat right with us for Power Rangers. It sounds too much like Rita from down the chip shop

That might happen when you localize a cultural product. Although Rita is quite a popular name in Brazil (especially among 40-year-olds and older), the name was used in our localization, too, and in my opinion it matches the villain perfectly.

But since her original name is Bandora, I don't get why they didn't use something like Pandora, for example.

Great to know the game performs and plays well. Let's get it soon!

Re: Anniversary: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is Now Six Years Old

Awesome game. My favorite in the series with a wonderful and lengthy single player mode. It can't get more fun than that. It could have been perfect if online had been decent, but it wasn't. At this day and age, I don't know if there's an excuse for such a bad online service, especially considering the relevance of the franchise

I keep playing DKC Tropical Freeze and Animal Crossing New Horizons and this week I came back to an addiction I've developed in the past few years: Picross. Currently replaying Picross S Genesis And Master System. I need to finish its final five Mega Picross puzzles. When I do it, I'll start Picross Namco Legendary Edition

Re: Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered Details Returning 'Photo Mode' Feature

John_Deacon

Only played IV and loved it at the time, but I've never played the other two. To be honest, I'm not sure if the point of this kind of collection is to discover new games when it comes to early 3D games, which tend to have bad controls

The first collection was really good. I'm really fond of TR I and II and had a blast replaying them after such a long time

Re: 'Nintendo Music' Update Adds Wii Sports Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included

@sanderev Great! Thanks for the tip. When you open the app, they kind of "force" you into the top tracks and once you do that, every time you open the app, you'll see the same sections you visited before, that is, the top tracks. To get to the "all tracks" page, I found two ways now: searching for the game (which isn't practical at all to be done all the time) or opening the top tracks and then clicking on the name of the game, which will lead you to the game's main page and let you choose "all tracks" as the second option, as you mentioned. Now let's hope the algorithm starts showing me the main page or the all tracks section on startup. Thanks!

Re: 'Nintendo Music' Update Adds Wii Sports Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included

John_Deacon

@TheDragonDAFan It's a curious thing: after you pointed it out, I tried to update it, but I already have the latest version. When I choose Donkey Kong Country, the main page shows 13 tracks (27 min) and no Cave Dweller Concert. Only when I choose Levels, do Cave Dweller, Voices of the Temple and Misty Menace show up, but the intro theme, simian segue and bonus room blitz disappear (because they're not levels). There are 12 tracks (29 min) in the levels folder.

So, if I want to listen to the complete soundtrack, I will have to create a playlist because there's no other way?

But thank you very much for showing me that at least the track is indeed available. Thanks, man!

Re: Review: Mario & Luigi: Brothership (Switch) - Easily The Best Mario & Luigi RPG Yet

John_Deacon

@ViewtifulCool Games, movies, albums, etc. I like to read reviews because every writer always pointed out an aspect that others leave out, but I always tend to "trust" no one when I want to play the game they're reviewing. I play it. If I had trusted reviewers saying Origami King was a 7, I'd never have paid full price for it. But Im honestly happy I did because it's a 9 for me. I had so much fun playing it. And I believe it's gonna be the same with Brotherhood. I'm hyped for it
