Re: Poll: So, Did You Get Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 For Switch?

The prices are ridiculous, and I am the outlier that thinks they're bad games. The gravity/planetoid gimmick is interesting enough for like Sonic bonus levels, but not enough to justify the awful camera and controls. All of this is compounded by the Switch port being nonfunctional. They sacrificed the controls to the point of ruining the games, for waggle. Then they port it with the waggle broken.
I know most people love them, and I have tried to enjoy them since they came out. It's the biggest example of a game I can think of that skates by on fandom.

Re: Atlus Rules Out Persona 3 Reload Switch Port

@mikegamer oh, I wasn't defending Atlus. Persona 3 is actually where I left the series. I hate the music and playing as teens is rote. I also don't buy games that are released incomplete to screw people over.
I was just taking the chance to call you out for being a clown.

Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Demo Datamine Leaks More Heroes

@Mommar oh, I disagree. They are better than ever, in my opinion.
You can be cynical about nostalgia all you want. I really enjoy fun references, usually. It is likely that the devs are referencing older titles in the genre (!!!) because they love those games and grew up with them? Maybe that's why they are making a beat em' up. We didn't get very many for a long time, also, so maybe its cathartic that they can finally make what they want and get it in front of people?
Marvel fans are just the mainstream now, so Im not sure who you are referring to. Who are the real Marvel fans when its mostly homogeneous, processed cheese with McDonald's toys and themed drinks at Starbucks or whatever? I'm reading Midnight Suns, am I allowed to say the designs are okay by me? Or do I need to watch all of the MCU movies that are exactly the same, over and over?
It doesn't sound like you love the genre (!!!) all that much anymore. It sounds like you are burned out on it.

Re: Review: Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Switch) - Still Out Of This World

At least someone out there acknowledged the camera problems. I would add that the games simply can not be played how they are intended to be played in handheld mode. The gyro aiming just doesn't work correctly. You can touch the screen to grab the star bits, which is awkward and I don't like touching the screen for anything.
The imagination on display is at the 9/10 level, the games themselves are 8/10, and on Switch I'd struggle to give them a 7. Its a lazy port of games that need work in the first place.
