LUIGITORNADO

I hope they just pivot and offer more physical options.

I will not buy game key cards.

I understand they’re a better alternative than all digital, but it’s a no for me

I’d give it a meh

Mario Kart World came and went, and I lost most of my interest with the online forcing me to race on whatever the hell they call the tracks-straight-a-ways leading to actual courses

Bonanza was fun, but not nearly as good as Mario Odyssey

Metroid Prime 4 was just alright. I enjoyed it, but certainly a step below its predecessors and had little to no relatability.

I didn’t pick up Air Riders because money started to get tight with inflation going up. As much as I enjoyed Air Rider, I just can’t justify the spend on a party game when it’s just really me playing alone

Hyrule Warriors is not my jam. I find the game play loop really terrible and the story nonsensical, and the characters grating. I wish story was more of a focus for Zelda games, but whoever is handling the direction this last decade with the Wild games and Warrior games need to be reassigned to something else. They’re not even Saturday Morning cartoon caliber.

The GCN on the NSO so far has been okay. Good list of games after year 1

5/10 for me

System never had its BIG game. All have been B list or below

I finally saw the movie.

The action was brisk, and there was so little dialogue…even compared to the first movie.

While watching it, I totally had a sinking feeling that Nintendo really reigned in their creative control over the movie, believing that they needed to double down on trying to capture the feelings of playing the video game rather than just telling a good story.

I literally finished watching it 20 minutes ago, and I can’t recall more than 3 lines of dialogue Mario.

Cool set pieces and stuff though

Nintendo should keep up with the stock buy backs so they have to listen to shareholders less.

I want a continuation of Star Fox Assault, built and expanded.

I don’t want just another rail shooter

I love Assault and I’m going with the Japan box. First time I’ve seen it. I like how the whole gang is there

Yeah, but honestly…just sitting there in tank mode inhaling stuff gets boring after a while. No movement

I don’t support key card games

“Overblown.”

What’s with the negativity?
It’s just a movie, bro

@the_beaver 7 and 8 look like just about every other VR horror game released. The videos I’ve seen of the gameplay seem to emphasis jump scares over anything else

I haven’t played 7 or 8 because I do not care for FPS resident evil with cheap jump scares. I skipped 6 as well because it looked terrible. Played both Revelations games and they were alright.

I played the 4 remake and forgot how much I used to enjoy the IP. Probably won’t be getting this because of not play the 2 that came before

Which ever one isn’t fighting. I hate those crosses. They’re so lame

The VC was a scam, and I feel like an idiot for buying the same games on different systems.

If they had started the VC on Switch I would have expected the games I purchased to flow over into one account.

The NSO is a fine alternative.

Honestly. The narrative of the warrior games does not interest me. At all. There’s something really off about them. None of it’s interesting. None of the characters really have any staying power.

If they went back to SS and added grew from that I’d be okay with it. It felt cinematic, interesting, and the most like classic Zelda in the last decade than anything out there

@KevinP the problem is gamers, like you, using their “feelings” to point out that price increases are not needed rather than facts

I won’t buy anything that is a game key card.

Even if it was a first party title that I wanted to play 🤷🏻‍♂️

What a scam

@Strawblaze yes. Besides the softening of the difficulty. The Wii version of echoes is better

Well that’s disappointing if true for echoes.

I’d pay for a remake of it.

I don’t think I could go back to tank controls

@Dev-N unless birdo is what he was referring too

@Porky lol that’s hysterical

@Old-Red that’s such a blanket statement-take.

I have no ill will towards GameStop.

The one I go to the workers are friendly enough.

There is a local game store that I stop into more, but they don’t get a lot of stock when it comes to hardware launches

Donkey Kong Bonanza

Probably BG3 after that

@GoproGO I think for a lot of us it was our first Fire Emblem. Melee came out and introduced us to Fire Emblem, then SS and than PoR which was this cooling looking 3D game.

Beginning of the year looks pretty terrible

Long as they don’t try to pivot the Nintendo brand back to a children brand for NoA, then I don’t care who’s in charge

I’ve been sitting on XB3 and XBX hoping for a switch 2 update

I haven’t even noticed

I think 3 is just probably too young to play Super Mario Bros.
6 is more age appropriate

@Ristar24 prime always had that banger soundtrack playing.

Hardly oppressive. Somber, sure

Did they make it easier yet to just do classic races with laps?

I dropped world a few weeks after launch

I love Hale. But her voicing Bayonetta was jarring. Her voice is so recognizable that it felt off

I love it. I want more of this in Metroid.

We’ve had decades of similar stuff. Please keep growing the IP

I refuse to buy key cards. So most of my storage will be for system or game updates.

@Kraven Yeah. Alex has been around for decades. How old is he, like 40? Thought I was reading some karma-farming-hate post on Reddit.

Really? Just say you didn’t like the NPC squad mates. I know you’re writing for children, but there’s adults here too.

Looks like a sequel

I’m stuck at a place where I haven’t played X or 3 yet, so now I feel like I got to wait and see if there will be a switch 2 update for them

It looks like Yoshi

@IceClimbersMain
My bet is that they’re okay bringing old ports to the switch still where there’s still larger user base

There’s no way the team that does AC hasn’t been working on a sequel this whole time.

I bought the other one on Switch and it felt like a chore. Rushed through it

Switch 2 will inevitably go up in price due to tariffs. If you’re thinking you’re going to wait to save money on a bundle, might as well buy now instead of paying more later

As long as NoA doesn’t take a step back with pushing for localizing games I don’t really care who’s in charge

Idk. If that formula works for people then have at it.

It’s not for me. I like difficulty but I don’t like meandering difficulty. I don’t like difficulty that sends me in the opposite direction for hours only to hit another wall. It doesn’t respect my time, so I won’t waste my time

I really dislike the term that combines Metroid and Castlevania because to describe games like Hollow Knight and Silksong. Metroid and Castlevania are some of my favorite games, and Team Cherry games feel nothing like that, and the drawing comparison just feels like a marketing trick.

I preordered physical for Galaxy 2. Enjoy it more than the first one

Key card is a hard pass.

Real terrible decision by Nintendo not giving devs an option for smaller sized carts

I’ve been sitting on XC3 now since it launched.

Now I’m waiting for some sort of patch for Switch 2

No thank you
No

@Axecon yeah that’s my bet.

I honestly don’t even bother watching their content. I see the headlines occasionally but it seems more performative for other news sites to pick up their analysis to just stir the pot and get clicks.

I got eyes. I don’t need DF to tel me if a game runs terrible or not
