Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 2nd)

Kiyata

I’ll be playing several games including Ridge Racer on 3ds, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe on switch, Pac-Man Museum… and speaking of which I’m also finishing up a needlepoint I created of an entire Pac-Man maze with Pinky, Inky, and Blinky, plus Pac-Man, and the cherries. All inspired by the classic arcade version of Pac-Man 😁

Re: Random: "Die-Hard Nintendo Fan" Reportedly Forked Out Over $40K To Ask For A New F-Zero

Nintendo is NOT open to making new titles and remakes because there are two games that were incredibly popular on 3ds that are very much wanted on switch, that they still have not made. Style Savvy, and Tomodachi Life, both of which have change . org petitions, the latter of which has amassed more than 16,300 signatures! So what does that tell you about Nintendo being open to remakes?! Still nothing being done. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Re: Review: Capcom Fighting Collection - An Essential Buy For One-On-One Fighting Fans

Kiyata

Vast set of games here, although my favorite is the puzzle one, and I wouldn’t mind having it as a physical copy (despite also having it on GBA and PS1), but thankfully they are releasing the digital version of Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo on July 21, for $3.99 USD, and it’s already in my wish list on the eShop. All but one of the fighting games don’t interest me. 🤷🏻‍♀️ And that one will be available also for $3.99. I love that they are releasing all these separately so we can pick and choose the ones we want!

Re: Switch Network Failure Prevents Users From Accessing eShop And Digital Games

Kiyata

@TryToBeHopeful that’s actually completely untrue. Because that same reasoning would mean everyone in the world can use all my downloaded content I have across all my iPads, my purchased iTunes music, my cell phones, smart televisions, 3ds digital games, PlayStation digital games, Xbox digital games, etc. Which they cannot. It’s just Nintendo which has this ludicrous policy of checking your credentials every single time you play a digital game. Maybe they are not technologically advanced enough to figure out how to get that “one and done” signature.

If we PAY for a game, and we PAY for a system, or even five systems, then why do we have to get online to validate our PAID game every time we play it from a system we PAID for? Nintendo is greedy and controlling, that’s why. When they wouldn’t let me play MY game last night on MY system, I played 3ds instead, and I enjoyed that very much. Games that do NOT require being online or submitting to their control. I miss when Nintendo was a customer centric company. Sigh.

Re: Review: PAC-MAN MUSEUM+ - A Gaming Legend's Best Collection Yet

Kiyata

I had a blast playing this over the weekend. I bought it for Pac-Attack, which was a favorite of mine in the 90s, and while I still have it available to play on two other handheld Nintendo systems, it was also nice to play it on my OLED. The other games are great too but I honestly found Pac-Land to be surprisingly frustrating and not fun.
Also, I had no glitches or frame rate issues or problems with any games I played.
Overall it’s a wonderful compilation with a huge variety of games!

Re: Video: Do You Own A Video Game So Rare That You Can Never Actually Play It?

Kiyata

I have a LOT of incredibly rare & valuable games. I’ve considered selling them, especially the deluxe editions with all the cool accessories they came with but what happens when you sell a rare game? You get some money, and you spend it on something else, and the whole experience is just gone and forgotten. So if it’s a good game and I like it, I’m just going to enjoy having it and playing it…. who cares if it’s worth a fortune! Life is too short to not enjoy the good things we have! ❤️

Re: Poll: Budget Line Box Art - Is It 'Fine', Or A Sin Against All That Is Good And Pure?

Kiyata

I’d just like physical games to replace digital games. Yeah I know that’s backwards in today’s game climate, but maybe going in that direction would inspire game developers to put more work into finishing these games instead of all the patch patch patchity patching right after they are released nowadays. And I personally wouldn’t care much what the box art shows either way since I put my games in a small multi-game case.

Re: Three Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Games Have Been Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack

Kiyata

@SNES_Chalmers well, in my defense, I still have my original Genesis and many games I bought some 30+ years ago and it seems the same to me as the collection on the switch. I’m a very old school gamer, I even still play my old Intellivision and Atari from when I was young and those seem to feel the same to me as my Intellivision Lives set on DS and the two Atari ones on DS too. 😊

Re: Three Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Games Have Been Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack

Kiyata

@SNES_Chalmers that’s very surprising! I have a switch lite, a switch OLED, and the original switch and I’ve experienced zero input lag or emulation issues of any kind with the Genesis classics collection on any of them, and I even play strictly in handheld mode which is even more of a strain on the processor.. Perhaps your game needs updated? Or maybe your system is old? Not sure why it would be so slow for you.

Re: Review: Mario Golf - Strait-Laced Fun On The Fairway

Kiyata

This is a great game but my all time favorite was the GameCube Mario golf, it was perfect. I’m still irritated that Nintendo picked Genesis of all things to supplement the online expansion. So cheap and dirty… why couldn’t it have been GBA, Gameboy classic or color, or GameCube? And the Mario Golf games on all of those were awesome.
