Supposed Switch sales: 14.6 million
WiiU lifetime sales: 14 million
The word 'trounced' in the context of sales: surpass by great amount

Careful with your English, guys.

Italian developer taking after a certain Croatian one, nice. Good luck with your redneck rampage.

Perfect Dark Zero, I remember that game making people wonder "What's so special about next gen?"

"This isn't helped by an old school save system that requires you to get to a specific room and spend some in-game currency to record your progress."

Sorry, but save rooms are a metroidvania staple and I wouldn't have it otherwise. Having to pay isn't without precedent either.

Beautiful sprite work.

When the cartridge dies, this song will play:

Merry Christmas everybody, I hope you're feeling wonderful and enjoying yourselves.

That's some bear hug.

And is that manga art on the right?

16:9 ratio screen for exclusively 4:3 ratio games? Yeah, no.

@Heavyarms55 "seems to be on track for matching of even exceeding Wii U life time sales in it's first year alone."

The minimal difference between matching and exceeding is only one extra unit sold.

What if with this amazing Daz she discovers that she needs to put only half as much powder for the same washing effect? This thing could pay for itself.

@shonenjump86 Pretty much all the design elements and mechanics in Resident Evil came from the French computer game Alone in the Dark.

A very historically accurate ancient India, they forgot to say.

"Pearl-senpai!"

FREEEEEEEEDOM!!!!

(from shovelware)

Oh yeah baby, been waiting for this one. And it's on the 3DS where it belongs. (:

And what with the "I want this on the Switch waaa waaa"? I understand putting the WiiU to the side for the Switch, but the 3DS? It's still the #1 Handheld for me, and I'm nowhere near done with it. It's the perfect system.

@Euler Heh, was about to make the same joke, but at least I got to give you a like. (:

"oodles of grainy video footage featuring struggling actors reading from dodgy scripts"

Awwwww... ):

I played a whole lot of FMV games, and while I don't exactly disapprove of the jab (though there were a few with good quality writing and acting), I enjoyed my time with those games a lot, and still like to play a few of the classics from time to time.

P.S. Sega CD is not exactly the champion of FMV adventures. You really needed to be a PC gamer to enjoy the good games.

@GC-161 Learning from past experience > blind optimism

@Anti-Matter
baka - Japanese for stupid
baka - Croatian for grandmother

@MattFox Don't forget Laputa in Spanish

@brandonbwii Yes.

Those girls really have a fetish for having their hands massaged by a water elemental and being sexually harassed by an invisible Mickey Mouse.

Still got a while to go before they reach Dragon Ball Z numbers.

The Last Samurai, The Wolf of Wall Street, Akira and Jaws are great.

@SHULZ021 Sure does.

The review is too short. Giving something a 10/10 requires a stronger case.

@Shiryu Well that sure looks interesting, thanks. Always liked the 'bouncing the bonuses' mechanic in shmups.

Super Vegan Massacre

@Sir_Anthony

Okay bringing up The Sound of Music though? @Ervex_109

How about Izetta the Last Witch?

Come on it's yuri!!!

I apologize for overworking your scroll wheel/thumb.

@Ralizah @AlphaElite Bravo, both of you. I like when an easy target for a joke starts off as very funny.

Geez Mike, can't you stop talking about the game's "grand old age"? When every second game reviewed is retro, it's a bit silly.

@flightsaber "Only thing that could've made this better is if they cast Morgan Freemon ONLY for that half a second line."

And put his name in big letters on the poster.

Seems the guy went the way of Kojima*.

*completely cuckoo

@CheddarSword I think that's a pretty damn obscure release compared to the infamous star-studded and big-budget flop.

But I'd like to see that 1986 anime if that's possible, so thanks for letting us know. No reason to be a smart aleck about it though.

TBH, I'd much rather see a Zelda anime.

Now Point, Best Point, Begin... how about Score, High Score, Start? You know, the usual? There's some rather eclectic choice of words, which is weird since the translation is otherwise solid. Don't mean to poo poo the hard work, just sayin'.

Were the graphics made on a B&W monitor? I love when a game is colorful, but you need to know a thing or two about color to make it work.

@yeayeanaynay Yeah, they just puke in the mouths of their young.

@sillygostly Yes, the wrong aspect ratio is beyond stupid.

@yeayeanaynay Humans aren't the only animals who make war.

"Alright guys, seems in order to sell more copies we'll need to gear the next installment towards a 'certain audience'."

Whaaaaa? Nekomata didn't make the top ten?

EDIT: And the neighbor's dog just barked, which he rarely does. wtf?

@Hughesy I know the ones with bank cards instead of money, but do you mean a dedicated electronic hardware monopoly?

@Rei First thing that came to my mind actually! Funny how I forgot to mention that.

Creeping terror on 3DS looks interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHRUovHcP8c

Not really a fair poll with the Odyssey hype (warranted of course) all the rage.

It's out now, I'll be looking to buy it next week. In any case I won't miss buying it, looks like an interesting horror cinematic platformer. Got 7/7/7/7 in Famitsu back in January, their standard score for something "okay".

@Randomname19 It's Coraline's lesbian sister.

@derrin Why not go even more retro and play some of Infocom's classics?

@Alcovitch Did you play Syberia 2? It's an excellent sequel.
