Re: Review: Earth Atlantis (Switch eShop)

Hmmmmm... As much as I love oceanic themed games the mention of difficulty spikes puts me right off. I've new game plus, suffered through Bloodborne several times but suck at these sort of games.

Re: The Nintendo Virtual Boy Could Be Getting New Software

Lukeim64

Whilst I love my VB dearly (hello profile pic) I'm quite happy to leave it's software as is. πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜‰

Edit: and not once has it impaired or made my eyes hurt. Truly suspect it was the 90's equivalent of the 3DS scandal that did the rounds in the tabloids a few years ago)

Re: Video: '90s Interview With Miyamoto Reveals What He Thinks Makes His Games So Special

Lukeim64

During the early nineties there was a brilliant documentary about gaming as a whole, had an interview with the guy who made Ecco for example. There was a fantastic piece about Shigsy. They even showed him playing with his family and he made direct connections with specific real world architecture and its place in Starfox for example. Was absolutely superb. Wonder if I'm the only one old enough to remember it? πŸ˜ΆπŸ˜‰

Re: Sonic Mania’s Reception Will Determine the Direction of the Series

Lukeim64

Wow. If anything this drastically shows how utterly out of touch they are as a developer. Worrying about a 2D game where they've been very popular (when done right) over 3D dirge that has been some of the worst 3D gaming throughout the last few gens. Surely they should be longing for the release of this in the hope it restores far more faith in Sonic as a brand? Certainly not worrying if people will take to it on not! Maybe somebody should show Sega how YouTube likes work? πŸ˜‰

Re: The eBay Scalpers Are At It Already With The Super NES Classic Edition

Lukeim64

Something truly has to be done about scalpers. It's utterly horrid behaviour. I've even taken to reporting a chunk of them. I'm lucky enough to have got a pre order in via an amazing mate who knew I'd want one and ordered me one, but its so unfair to sell pre orders. Fair do's; if they hand them in hand - fine I guess.... But a pre-order?! Nope.

Re: Guide: ​What Each Zelda amiibo Does In The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild

Lukeim64

This has only once again highlighted the farce that is Amiibo availability. Fortunately I have all the Zelda ones, but clicking on the Amazon link which states Β£9.99 takes you to scalper land and prices of 60 quid! Was curious so went to eBay.... An unboxed Smash Bros Link is Β£35.00! Why on earth are Nintendo not making more of these? They must have realised how high demand would be for related Amiibo's?
