Any F-zero mention is enough to reignite my desire for a new F-zero. For those who claim there won't be another F-zero due to Mario Kart 8 with it's 200CC speed, I disagree. F-zero was an unique single-player racer first and multiplayer second. In today's industry, there is so much that can be done with this and it's guaranteed to be a hit on Switch. I wanna I wanna I wanna!
Enjoyed when I played it but had to put it down at some point because it became impossible to figure things out in this game without a guide and ironically following a guide makes the game feel unrewarding.
No real regrets that I can think of, but when I had a N64 I never went the extra mile to try and get my hands on WWF No Mercy so I missed out on playing one of the most best wrestling games ever...
Never thought I would post a review on metacritic, let alone a very negative one. Yet House in Fata Morgana made me do it. I know it's a visual novel and not for everyone, but damn it doesn't deserve such high praise. Doki doki club literature is way better.
Was too curious, got it on sale. I understand it being a visual novel and everything but... no it's not good. It's a story written as if it's for children, I don't understand how this can be considered a masterpiece at all.
Can't believe this rocking soundtrack album is 3 years old already. Pretty neat of Nintendo to add all these fighting minigames as well but I haven't play it for more than an hour.
The only good thing about Skyward Sword was that I was available to trade it in at my local game store to get a 60% discount on Pokemon Brilliant Diamond on launch day.
Before Brilliant Diamond, UltraSun was the last pokemon game I played and I didn't even finish it because of all the petting, grooming and such you'd have to do after every battle to keep your pokemon happy. Felt too tamagoshi-ish for me. So having happy pokemon just by battling feels perfectly fine, though indeed it does make the game a bit too easy. I'd say trim it down if possible, but it doesn't ruin the game for me.
