@DavidMac Bayonetta and Astral Chain are great. Star Fox Zero was more of the big guy's fault. TW101 is pretty bad though. Better on Switch. Still bad.
@Vexx234 I like galaxy 2 more than 1. Felt more inline with the older Mario games. I don’t mind story, but Galaxy 1 was way tooooo whimiscal. It was childish and boring.
Yikes. How boring. At one point Nintendo will need to start developing games for their next platform. Can’t imagine Swirch has more juice in it after another 2 years. COVID may have killed development sooner than expected.
I don’t really expect much from them beyond, Pokémon, breath of the wild 2 and Metroid. I wouldn’t be surprised if the new Prime was pushed to a dual release. Bayonetta 3 whenever I guess. Sounds like Platinum is waiting for Nintendo to make a move within release date more than anything.
I would give them a pass because of the pandemic, but this behavior of paltry releases happens all the time.
Oh hai Mario Golf and a new Smash fighter. I should be all set for 3-4 months 🙄 Sometimes I wonder if they’re leaning into indie too much, as a way to pad content for the system. Too bad majority of its garbage.
Not interested. I want a more bombastic Star Fox. Assault dialed to 100x with a character creator and massive online battles, and better third person shooting mechanics.
Star Fox could be a giant sci-fi epic franchise for Nintendo but they continue to treat it like butt
I’m so tired of the gaming media acting like a contrarian to its audience. If someone doesn’t value it at $60, then they don’t value it at $60. There really isn’t an argument for it.
Personally I’m on the fence. I like Metroid, but there’s been so many games like it, mostly indie, over the last 20 years that it’s hard to value it at $60. Especially since those other games are for like a third of the price.
I’m about 3/10 excited. I’m really not expecting much besides Zelda, Splatoon 3, Pokémon, Metroid Prime 4, Rabbids, Bayonetta 3, Smash Fighter, SMT, and whatever EAD is doing.

Re: Bayonetta 3 Will 'Exceed All Your Expectations', Says Platinum's Hideki Kamiya
@SamirMalik they’re designs are ridiculous. For me it’s a case of normal people going to work wearing a Batman cowl.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Will 'Exceed All Your Expectations', Says Platinum's Hideki Kamiya
@Old-Red tbh Pyra and Mythra’s clothing don’t match their personality.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Finally Gets A New Trailer, Out In 2022
@The_Pixel_King something seemed off about it. Not a lot of personality maybe? Idk.
Re: Talking Point: Remember When People Thought Switch Would Fail?
I like the Switch. Just wish it had some consistent first part releases.
Re: Random: IGN's 'Best Video Game Of All Time' Tournament Is Getting WILD
Bloodborne should win.
Re: 'Disney Classic Games Collection' Adds Aladdin SNES And "All Versions" Of The Jungle Book
If it had good troops and both Mickey games I’d buy it.
Also. SNES Aladdin is the better version. Feels more like the movie.
Re: Random: Nintendo Shares Gorgeous Metroid Art That's Just Perfect For Your Phone Wallpaper
I actually don’t like the dread or returns art. Too static.
Re: Sega To Announce "New RPG" At This Year's Tokyo Game Show
Mobile game? Nooooope
Re: Video: Nintendo Drops A New Metroid Dread Commercial
Didn’t think it was that great of a commercial. If I wasn’t a Metroid fan it doesn’t do much.
Re: Astral Chain's "Superstar" Director Is Working On A New, Unannounced Game
Really liked Astral Chain. I’ve been meaning to play it again one of these days. Fun game.
Re: Platinum Would "Definitely" Port Star Fox Zero To Switch, If Given The Opportunity
@DavidMac Bayonetta and Astral Chain are great. Star Fox Zero was more of the big guy's fault. TW101 is pretty bad though. Better on Switch. Still bad.
Re: Platinum Would "Definitely" Port Star Fox Zero To Switch, If Given The Opportunity
Throw out the controls, rebuild it like a proper rail shooter and that's all they need to do. More work than the typical Wii U port, but whatever.
Re: Random: Donkey Kong Blows? Of Course, And It's All Down To Shigeru Miyamoto
@Vexx234 I like galaxy 2 more than 1. Felt more inline with the older Mario games. I don’t mind story, but Galaxy 1 was way tooooo whimiscal. It was childish and boring.
Re: Talking Point: What's The Best Sound In Video Games?
Sucking up cash in Luigi Mansion 3 hands down.
Re: Random: Check Out These Mock-Ups Of Game Boy For Nintendo Switch Online
Sad truth is we’ll get mostly garbage

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Will Expand Its Switch Online Service With Game Boy And Game Boy Color Titles
Already bought a modded GBA, and downloaded all the GB, GBC, and GBA games I wanted onto a Falashas cart. Cost me $300 but whatever.
If this is true then it’s too little too late.
Re: Poll: No More Heroes 3 Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
I preordered it. Hoping it retains some value
Re: Now, This Is What Next-Gen Pokémon Should Look Like
I’m really okay with Pokémon not being a sprawling open world game. I don’t think it needs it.
Re: 'Disney Classic Games Collection' Gets Rated For Switch, Now With Added Jungle Book
Tbh. I wish it was the SNES Aladdin and it was bundled with Goof Troops and both Mickey games. No interest otherwise.
Re: Random: Sakurai Terminator Reference Sparks DOOM, Fortnite And Among Us Smash Bros. Speculation
A gesture referencing Terminator 2 that’s been defended in pop culture dozens of times since.
Re: Action Adventure Platformer 'Project Buramato' Announced For 2022
Looks good. Dislike the character design and their funny eyes. Less is more. Hate that bright eyed look
Re: Video: Check Out This Comparison Of The Pokémon Diamond And Pearl Remake Trailers
I’m not crazy about the overworld character design. Something more reserved liked link’s awakening would have looked more like the ogs

Re: Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl's New 'Grand Underground' Map Looks Epic
I think it looks good. Wish the models looked more like Link’s Awakening but whatev
Re: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Has New Pokémon, Including A Horrible Fish Ghost Bent On Revenge
Thought it looked underwhelming
Re: UK Charts: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Speeds Into Second As Nintendo Takes Half Of Top Ten
@Bibi it should be a Nintendo Kart game. I want Samus in her gunship and Falcon too.
Re: Stand-Up Comedian Reveals His Role In The Upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie
Weird.
That’s all.
Re: Nintendo Reveals The Top 15 Most-Downloaded Switch Games In July 2021 (Europe)
@SpaceboyScreams I can’t stand it in handheld mode. Not sure how they could have improved it.
Re: Nintendo's Stock Price Sees Biggest Fall In Two Years Following Earnings Report
Means nothing other than a correction of last years lucky performance with the lock down.
Re: Feature: Zooming Through Sonic Colors: Ultimate And Getting The Switch Lowdown
Only British people care about the whole “color” things. Most Americans couldn’t care less.
Re: Soapbox: In Praise Of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Two Years On
Too bad the class system stinks and the maps are boring.
Re: The Simpsons Co-Showrunner Would Love To See Hit & Run Return But Admits It's "Complicated"
So Disney. I’ll just emulate
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 24th)
Tbh I bought SS tried it in handheld mode, the controls were so bad it put me off playing it all together.
So. Pokémon Yellow through emulation it is
Re: Fancy A Switch OLED For £800? Scalpers Are Already Flogging Pre-Orders
Yeah. Figured this would happen. Makes it even less appealing. If that was possible.
Re: Nintendo Confirms There's No CPU Or RAM Upgrade In The OLED Switch
Meh pass for me
Re: Here's How Nintendo Is Improving Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Over The Wii Original
@tntswitchfan68 their whining isn’t stopping anyone from enjoying it 🙄
They can complain about the price all they want.
Re: Former Star Fox Programmer Would Be Interested In Making A New Entry Without The "Gimmicks"
Not interested. I want a more bombastic Star Fox. Assault dialed to 100x with a character creator and massive online battles, and better third person shooting mechanics.
Star Fox could be a giant sci-fi epic franchise for Nintendo but they continue to treat it like butt
Re: Mini Review: DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods - Part One - Rip, Tear, Repeat
I turned down the difficulty on the final fight on pc. Didn’t have it in me
Re: Talking Point: Why Metroid Dread Will Be Worth $60
I’m so tired of the gaming media acting like a contrarian to its audience. If someone doesn’t value it at $60, then they don’t value it at $60. There really isn’t an argument for it.
Personally I’m on the fence. I like Metroid, but there’s been so many games like it, mostly indie, over the last 20 years that it’s hard to value it at $60. Especially since those other games are for like a third of the price.
Re: Feature: "Samus' Adventure Will Continue" - Metroid Dread Producer On The Series' 2D Revival And Future
I wasn’t impressed with what I saw. Idk. After 19 years I expected more.
That’s okay. I hope I’m wrong.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Delivered An Excellent E3 Direct For Fans Old And New
Excellent? No. It was just okay.
Mario Rabbids looks good but that was 2022 right?
SMT’s looked pretty boring gauging off the trailer. It’s a niche series.
Advance Wars remake should be fun but not for 60.
Wario Ware is meh.
Mario Party should be DLC. Most likely it was and they decided to release it as a game.
Zelda is 2022.
And It’s been 19 years since a Metroid 2D game…what they showed looked stagnant.
Re: Metroid 5 Is Coming To Switch As Metroid Dread, And It's 2D
Looked good, but the treehouse presentation was boring. Fell asleep during it
Re: The Japanese Shin Megami Tensei V Trailer Is Different To The Western One
The voice over trailers from direct announcements are really lame
Re: Poll: How Hyped Are You For Nintendo's E3 Direct?
I’m about 3/10 excited. I’m really not expecting much besides Zelda, Splatoon 3, Pokémon, Metroid Prime 4, Rabbids, Bayonetta 3, Smash Fighter, SMT, and whatever EAD is doing.
Basically no surprises.

Re: Random: Craving More Metroid? Check Out This Impressive Live Action Short Film
Cool for a fan film.
Re: The Celebrity Cameos For E3 Season Are Coming, Starting With Jeff Goldblum
If someone watches E3 for the celebrities they’re doing it wrong.
E3 could just be a 2 hour montage of trailers and it’d be fine
Re: Talking Point: With Sony And Microsoft In Next-Gen Limbo, E3 Is Nintendo's For The Taking
@KryptoniteKrunch can’t wait to get a ten minute trailer of Mario Gold <_>
Re: Soapbox: Pokémon Legends: Arceus' Release Date Worries Me, But Hopefully I'm Wrong
Looks like a tech demo. Pass
