@Yoshif3 reusing assets ain't inherently bad, it's only bad if a game has been using the same assets since the Mesozoic period like CoD and Battlefield plus TotK is a complete game unlike the games I mentioned are butchered where 80% of it's content is locked behind multiple paywalls. Y'all can boo at me but know that I'm right. He dicho, caso cerrado.
I know people expect every update to a performance patch but it shouldn't, they need to spread it out or more performance issues will arise. That being said I'm glad to see them updating the game to be less buggy. I've been having fun just not with the occasional frame dips.
Every weekend I'm playing going to work cuz I work the weekends and no it's not unfortunate cuz I prefer it this way. What am I playing on my weekend? Who knows but I will say I finally finished TotK, bought it very late and only played a total of like 7 days worth of playtime with the 3 days I get, 2 were spent playing and the 3rd being chill day before prepping for work.
Managed to preorder the pair, kept my eyes on two sites I use to import, Play-Asia and Nin-Nin Game (N2G for short), the former had it up for preorder as it was the first one I checked, don't know about the latter. Anyone trying to get them good luck and hope you receive them.
@Axecon Triangle Strategy is low-key a funny name and kinda fun to say just cuz how it sounds ridiculous, Arms I'll give you that it's uncreative just like someone's password is 'password'.
@fenlix unlikely considering it's a Monolith Soft series despite being owned by Bandai Namco. Then again it's up to Monolith if they give their blessings like how Nintendo gave theirs for Wonderful 101 being on other platforms.
@Dpullam it's a niche title that's more niche than other RPGs. Don't feel bad as it's a series not for everyone just like deathcore isn't for everyone including other metalheads. Yes weird analogy but my point still stands.
That makes sense actually. Never really thought about it's meaning. I do still have the originals and was at one point going to play them then they revealed an HD port. Sad no NA physical version but it doesn't matter cuz Play-Asia has got my back (and those who want a physical version)
Good thing i bought these two the first time they came out though both i ran into issues, one was mistake in the address (an invalid address that has returned to sender) that i had to call the website i purchased from to fix and resend and the other was a stock issue plus paying for a the reshipment with the correct address, paid for the preorder but the site i purchased from contacted me in a professional way asking me a couple options on what to do, told them i would wait for a restock from the manufacturer otherwise a refund if the manufacturer can't fulfill new orders which is exactly what happened. I had to get the other from some site i knew nothing about but is a partner to GSC, unfortunately i had to pay an aftermarket price. In short, they were worth it though i would not wish my troubles on anyone. Also the price is around the same as the originals though they don't tell you any taxes and shipping fees. Anyone with disposable income should buy both if they really want them. Also, better price than the aftermarket price cuz both are around the cost of an RTX 3080.
i just bought well won this game on ebay, i paid $12 plus $3 s/h, the condition of the game was 'like new' and came with everything such as the original case, instruction booklet and original double-sided cover art. i gotta say i like it so far and it has been on my wishlist for some time (as with many other 3ds games).
@super08mario if you are talking about the na version of the dbz demo then its out, search 'dragon', you wont find it in the demo section, i tried that but i do have it downloaded as we speak.
this is a spin-off and maybe they did what they did so that they show off an actual metroid game in a near nintendo direct or i could be wrong and this is the only metroid we get.
@mjc0961 platinum games has always made great games, granted with some flaws, the only downside is any game they made or involved in becomes a niche game, they fly under the radar yet get great scores, the lowest may be 70% (don't quote me on that). you must have not heard of bayonetta or viewtiful joe and live under a rock.
@Yorumi microsoft owned the majority percentage of rare and nintendo was in no position to reject microsoft decision to buy rare. think of ot this way, you and a buddy pitch in to get an xbone but you paid 60% and your buddy paid 40% so while you both own the system, you have a say on what to do and if you want full custody then you can and will, your buddy does not have a say. so in essence you are microsoft and your buddy is nintendo.
@NintyMan i agree with but i also kinda agree with the disney producer however it's mostly the retailer's fault because they did not set a limit so they had a hand in helping those scalping rainbow trouts. speaking of does anyone have a lucina amiibo i can buy from?, the most i can pay is $25 usd (which translates to $20 usd+ $5 usd s/h), i don't mind if she is not in her box, what matters is her condition, works and in an acceptable condition aesthetically and i believe amiibos are region-free.
@Luna_110 you and me both, i want Lucina so bad and im willing to pay $20 usd (free shipping) or $25 usd ($20 usd +$5 s/h) but non of these scalpers are willing to accept my best offer so im forced to wait.
just bought cube life and it's cheap for the time being so if anyone wants it better buy it before its price is raised which i think it will be $15 usd after about a week, don't quote me on that.
@Cypronia i may, i mean support your game and buy it. i have cube creator 3d which is a far better game than i imagine though it could use some more work. at the price you said it looks like it would be worth my money and i will also support ucraft if the game ends up better than our expectation (i will still buy it out of curiosity). i will say this, your game looks as close to MC with some mods which is a good thing.
well i for one will buy it at that discounted price as soon as it hits NA and it would be a nice distraction from Cube Creator 3D which i also bought at a discounted price. im still willing to support UCraft but $20 USD is a little steep and i hope they do a 50% launch discount otherwise im gonna wait for a price cut of up to 50%
the only one i bought was street fighter 4 and was the one i had my eye on for a couple of years, didn't think it would have a discount since it has a price cut. worth the $8? yes. i was actually planning on getting the physical copy at that price (or $10) either on amazon or ebay but capcom did the favor for me. now if only watch_dogs on the eshop had a 50% discount i would buy it in a heartbeat and i would use what i saved for those 2 dlc packs.
@Crimzonlogic not all dlc are like that, this game is huge and a game like this does scream dlc, unlike dead or alive 5 last round (and many others) where the game is unfinished is $60 while the "extra" is the complete game for $80 (not to mention the $99 complete season pass). not fanboying but nintendo is practically the only company that does dlc right, full game and dlc as extra. i am gonna buy the game along with the dlc
im down with buying all the dlc, i did the same with ac 3 on wii u so whats another $20? unlike other games where you pay $60 for an unfinished game and pay $80 for a complete game, this is different and of course they cant fit all of them on the disk. i usually dont buy dlc if i think it was supposed to be in he game, this on the other-hand is different like i said earlier, its extra content and and may or may not be end game content. as i said earlier i will buy it.
@King47 i actually thought code name steam was a stupid looking game but since it is from intelligent systems i trust them, to to the point of loyalty but enough and if i somehow misspell anything wrong is because a piece of fuse came off (or at least i think it was a fuse, it was close to where you would connect the screen, just below where the left clamp is), from my laptop's motherboard when i went to open it to see what was wrong with it since it did not display anything, does turn on so im currently using my ps4 and the wireless keyboard i used for my laptop since i had it connect it to my lcd hdtv (vga, my laptop did not have and hdmi port) so im still trying to get used to using it as a temp pc (did not manage to get the mouse to work, it is tied to one dongle along with the keyboard, neat but i think it only works on pc so my mouse is the DS4 controller), anyways i did had second thought about the game after seeing the latest direct so now im interested
i already own the original prime trilogy, 1 and 2 for gcn and 3 for wii, might buy the digital just in case something happenst to both my wii that is backwards compatible with gcn and my gcn.
well it was a surprise when i seen the new ui for youtube, didnt see any news about it (yesterday, mostly because i was watching an lp of fallout new vegas, commentator was SSoHPCK)
i wont blame other to follow, it is hard to sell their products at affordable prices but because the government are money hungry parasites they add such a ludicrous amount of tax. its harder for them to get a ps4 since its almost $2000. maybe if the taxes weren't so damn high they (nintendo) would not have left.
@rjejr i think nintendo plans on doing something like that, it will upset the ios/android fanbase cuz they are not full games but it will get people to say, "i should buy a wii u or a 3ds a-la business cat reading the newspaper".
@Dark-Link73 people say that but dont want to listen, they want to force nintendo to put their games on smartphones thinking people will buy a 3ds game for the 3ds if its available on a smartphone or tablet, they assume we dont think. so why buy mario kart 7 on a 3ds when its on a smartphone (of course it will never happen)? also investors think adding nintendo games to rival consoles or competitors will make people buy nintendo products but greed has blinded them and dont see that it wont get people to buy nintendo consoles if its available on other devices. you, i and other will keep saying this but people wont listen, aside from the fact we are navi's, they dont want to hear the truth.
