GTAV would make more sense

I kind of wish we got a Mario Vs DK remake from the GB with updated 2D sprites.

I remember being disappointed with this one. Lacked character

For me the Xbox brand is nothing. Its attachment to other brands makes them “uncool” and “messy” by association. Like I’m done with Bethesda and Activision all together.

If they bought Nintendo I’d probably only retro game. I don’t see any value Microsoft could bring Nintendo. It would be a one sided relationship and with Xbox siphoning off all the brand-image from Nintendo, diluting it, until Mario and Zelda become nothing more than forgotten mascots.

Nintendo’s culture is what makes them special. They maintain that because they are able to operate freely with very little foreign interference.

There is no value here for Nintendo, gamers, or even the Japanese community.

Phil Spencer is a joke. I’m tired of hearing about gamepass as some sort of messiah when it’s really just twisting gaming and devaluing all the energy gone into making games.

I thought in my older age I was kind of done being a fanboy, but just knowing that this slime ball even thought about how to plan an acquisition of Nintendo has me literally seething.

I will never purchase an Xbox associated product again. At this point the brand is a zombie, animated my Microsoft’s money.

I’m fine with it. We used to get ports like this all the time. Price is a bit annoying

Physical I will

I think a 3D Mario followed by Prime 4 a few months later would be a strong launch

And announce another live service game that was 5 years too late

I tried getting into the remake as a kid. It was my first, literal first time playing an FF game. It’s turned me off to the entire series.

Elden Ring.
Not enjoying it as much as Dark Souls 3

@N8tiveT3ch you’re right. They’re actually putting out games consistently the last decade.

3 city tracks?

I don’t know if this is unpopular but I could really do without the real city tracks.

I can’t race on them, there’s too much stuff happening.

Call it as it is. Game had awful controls which squandered its potential.

Should have just made it a Wii game.

@sleepinglion eh for me it’s the vocal entitlement some pirates display. Worse is when they think of themselves as some type of do-gooder, taking a morale stance against evil Nintendo.

It’s like at least be honest with yourself

Why does Kotaku support this stuff?

I’m just happy that there seems to be some movement that isn’t just Pixar/Disney getting recognition.

@Axecon digital though so meh

Not at all.

I haven’t really been on team Ubisoft in over a decade. Most of their games have this uncanny vibe to them I can’t get past. They’re just uncool and cringey.

This trailer is basically that.

Uncanny because it looks like dread kind of, uncool because the character design, cringe because the trailer.

If the whole company folded I wouldn’t bat an eye.

Ugh. Not illumination for this one. It doesn’t gel
right

I’m in no rush. It took me more than a year to finish botw.

I’d put it down, and go back to it.

I thinks it’s good.

Haven’t made it off the sky island yet.

Fun messing around with stuff.

Feels very BotW obviously. If it’s just another 100 more hours of that I don’t think I’ll enjoy it much.

With new 3D Zelda titles…there’s always this anticipation of experiencing it. The story. The dungeon. The boss battles. The quirky characters. The equipment.

Don’t feel like that so far

@Simon97 lol fairness?

The video pretty much visually copies how recall looks

@FlashmanHarry Star Wars is a movie franchise 🤡

@Wolfgabe I’ll be completely honest. Pixar hasn’t been good for years. Their movies are too safe, too atypical of the studio.

I never cared what critics were going to say about this movie.

Always going to see it.

He’s obviously aware that people kind of hate how recognizable his voice is.

Honestly wouldn’t have minded someone a little more heroic sounding if that makes sense.

He’s joking clearly

Diddy, Petey, King Boo, ROB, Funky,

@CharlieGirl you get it. All these people complaining are plain unlikable and need a hug. How miserable are they?

This is a cartoon. Cartoons are filled with caricatures. Yeah. Damsel. Strong monarch. Whatever.

It takes you 4 paragraphs to get to the actual story.

Movie. I think they’re all great

Is this getting a physical release? Can’t find a preorder

@mariomaster96 yeah. I don’t need a show or puppets and stuff. Just show me trailers

@Tainaru it really as. I’ve read a lot…A LOT of amateur fantasy.

The Mary Sue protagonists these people write always have some obnoxious/distracting physical trait like heterochromia.

I honestly think the art work is fairly terrible. It’s too vanilla.

Cool. But rougelite. So pass.

I’ll wait. I have a backlog of games and nothing is screaming at me as a must play.

@Abes3 good faith and damaging the brand.

Wouldn’t it be WaPeach?

The character designs for the women look so bad. It’s cheesecake.

Having played through sekiro a bunch of times partying with Viola wasn’t a big deal for me

I got my copy, but that’s all that I’ve purchased from Ubisoft in years. Their other games don’t appeal to me anymore.

If they’re a quick and dirty port like Symphonia then I’ll pass.

I played this during a sleepy summer on GCN back in my teens.

It was so freaking whimsical. The towns folk had an air of mystery behind them.

Never beat it, but loved it.

@Wexter idk. Everyone felt pretty distinct in 3 houses. At least compared to Engage.

@Rayquaza2510 I don’t think only weebs watch anime.

I associate the high energy, flamboyant, fan service looking stuff with western weebs I spent my teenage years talking to on forums.

Thanks for the info though.

I am a casual watcher. If an anime interests me then I’ll watch it.

I just dislike this approach to FE. To me the older fire Emblem games may represent anime trends/tropes from that era, but it’s preferable than what I’m seeing with Engage.

Like I can’t believe I’m saying this because I complained about Three Houses and how different it was, but I perfer how that game presented itself over Engage.

Idk. I guess as a kid playing Sacred Stones, PoR and RD, I envisioned this series growing into something more dramatic and grounded. I don’t want to say like “Game of Thrones” because I think there’s a place for Fire Emblem’s silly sense of humor, and it’s still a video game, but yeah…something a bit more mature with a focus on political intrigue and not this nonsensical fantasy rainbow farting trumpet.

Tbh. If someone made a Fire Emblem game that presented itself sort of like a western medieval fantasy. Maybe sort of like Dragon Age Origins, with interesting characters, but still inherently Japanese in style and design (like dark souls/berzerk)…I’d love that game to pieces.

I still love the gameplay though…

@Rayquaza2510 what happened to all those weebs talking about how diverse anime is. Why can we get something more mature looking?

Why do all women characters have the same face?

This is awful looking!

@KindofaBigDeal

Thing is with most video game journalism is by exetension they work for the PR department for these companies.

Unless a company really botches a game previews are going to me more or less favorable.

It’s not really paying off, but these sites are attempting to not sully their relationship with publishers by being overtly negative about products.

Media trades are what this industry runs on.

I really hate the art. It’s so bad. I don’t want to get it for that reason alone.

Why do people think this is the final track? Isn’t there 6 more cups?

@Expa0 that’s disheartening. Series might as well be dead to me too. I’m tired of this direction the games took. The fan service is awful. They’re appealing to be lowest common denominator.
