@Keegsy I think Felghana and VII are peak, as a series fan.

@Trmn8r I miss when games were more obscure to "normal folk."

Not rage-bait, I promise, but this game is one of the most overrated I have ever played. Stealth, combat, and missions need serious work, and they were rough at launch.

It is really funny that the MD game runs better than Steam and Switch.

It will be 2.5D and the art will be a sin against this series, for some reason.

@Handy_Man 100%.
Well...like 90%.

There are so many great beat em' ups out and coming out. I still think Fight N' Rage and SoR 4 are peak, but variety is welcome.
I just grabbed Absolum, digitally, so I am looking forward to starting that.
Looking forward to this.

7, 13, and 16 year olds had fun so I was happy with it. We saw it at the drive-in w chili dogs and chips etc, so that helped.

@Interneto I only meant that exactly as I said it. Reactions will be interesting. I look forward to the discussions.

@AlanShore it will be interesting to see how Nintendo fans and jilted Pokémon fans feel when Beast of Reincarnation releases.

Packing up to move, so I have most of my collection in boxes. It was nice to take stock a little, but it also reminded me that I used to have so much classic stuff...grumblegrumble...
Anyway! Absolum and Crimson Desert for me.

I tried this, but it was like an ugly Dead Cells DLC.

Switch 2 sucks so hard, lol.

@Tempestryke it is the Dead Cells devs.

Indie publishers like Konami and Gearbox? Okay, lol.

This looks miserable to me.

@LostWithoutYou yeah I dropped out back when they thought a dude covered in lube was akin to Blanka tonally, I guess. It's gotten a bit cringe.

I really do not understand how this series got so goofy, but I find it embarrassing.

I picked up Micro Mages Maker. Check out Micro Mages, if you haven't. Very charming little platformer.

Can't wait to see what they hype up then completely underbake next.

@Rhaoulos I hope you gain some perspective. Do you think Peach having more autonomy instead of the typical trophy princess might be cause little girls would think she is cool that way? Like "PEACH IS COOL I WANT TO BE PEACH FOR HALLOWEEN!"
Are you 15???

I am not expecting any more than a fun time with the kids. Like I said before, I will most likely be watching their reactions more than the movie.

The more shmups, the merrier. Earthion is dope also, and brings back the Mega Drive feels.

I am going with the kids. I will probably be watching the youngest react more than the actual movie, lol.

Projectiles in ZPF are most often the opposite color of the background, which helps them stand out. It's not a problem.

I've owned every Nintendo console since the NES, but I am skipping this gen. Their hubris grosses me out.

Crimson Desert, Ball X Pit, and Splintered Fate.
Edit: welp, just got the mail and turns out I lied to everyone.

@Olliemar28 I think the only time I've ever really wanted a review revisited or changed was MK X. After reviews dropped, they just straight up changed the irl monies store to screw over players, and it felt very out of touch for the scores to stay the same after that. The note here seems fine to me.

The licensed irl sponsors gross me out.

Great look and sounds. Love it.

Way underrated, and The Cursed Crew is 10/10 legendary.

@Lucami the boomers tried to ban these games, and also are kind of trying to destroy humanity currently.
The term is dumb. It's here to stay so whatever, but pretty dumb.
@mercilessrobot this team did Boltgun, and it had serious audio and performance issues at release (at least on Switch).

Looks rad.
Rad, I say.
This game has more in common with sixth gen/early 2000s shooters than the boom shoot era. Big gunses and asplosions, but you aren't secret hunting through labyrinthine levels. Usually big slaughter maps where you run around planting bombs on objectives.
These guys still have a problem making interesting levels, imo.

@psyraven76 lol. Sounds like chores to me.

@jsty3105 I am surprised at how great Splintered Fate is. Glad it didn't die on Aplle Arcade or whatever. It would be nice if there was a non-roguelite mode for kids though.

Ball X Pit, TMNT: Splintered Fate, and maybe AC Syndicate.

R-Type Cosmos (Tactics) I and II for my Switch shipped this morning, and I am hyped.

@Uncle_Franklin and @DarkScythe13
I don't dig the wool aesthetic, but it played fine. I would like them to make a Yoshi game outside of "challenging as you make it." Same with Kirby.

@Anti-Matter Is your profile pic Eddie Eagle, the NRA cartoon that teaches kids gun safety?

Might be cool for the seven year old, but afaic there was Yoshi's Island, and then a bunch of meh from this series.

It's Nightdive so ofc I will probably buy three copies.

I have only seen the flower in Wonder, so no.

I started Atomic Heart but I am not sure I will stick with it. The tone is a little ehhhh, embarrassing?

I think Mario Galaxy is one of the most overrated games I have played, and the last movie was meh, but I can't wait to see this with my seven year old.

Nice! If it's a mode I am down though.

I know it is silly, but I will be really pleased to have the entire series on carts. Blood Omen is Evercade but still, neat.

I have a New 3DS XL that a Dtoid user sold me for a steal about a decade ago, but I am probably getting an AYN Thor for my DS stuff and will pass down the 3DS if any of the kids want it.
My DS Lite is still used pretty regularly.

Seeing Capcom absolutely slay never gets old. I would really like a D & D brawler collection, personally. My kids and I have gotten into a beat em' up kick lately and it is glorious.

Heard the game and port are great.
Its one of those series that I played from the beginning, and then dropped off around the fifth entry. Somehow seems to happen alot.

Oh it is NOT as good as Hades, haha. Hades is a flawless game.
I just picked this up and I am really surprised at the quality. Raph was my favorite as a kid, and they made him fun, which is apparently pretty hard.
Games never stop, man. Picked up Ball X Pit as well and hooooo boy.
Anyway, I hope I can get the kids into this.
