One thing I'm still left wondering about, which would help me greatly, is if I can reselect the difficulty when using NG+. Or if I can carry over affinity tokens, or whatever they were called. Because those tokens are why I dropped the game for a time,
I would argue that BotW is a sort of re-imagining of Zelda 1 in spirit. It's a different story, but the design of being able to find something just about anywhere, as well as free roaming exploration, is as true to the roots as it has gotten thus far. Now we just need an underworld to go with that overworld, and we're set.
So wait, does this mean streetpass doesn't activate anymore? I'd been getting them with my younger bro up until the eshop closed. I never saw a reason for them to turn that off. Having said that, I haven't gotten them from others in ages.
Btw, I don't really watch the videos in articles anymore unless it's a direct or something. :/ Just ocd habit.
What I have to wonder is, upon booting up the game the first time, I was asked to accept a license agreement. I don't think these games have any online features.
Well, I've been at Hollow Knight on and off for some time. I only have the one boss gauntlet left... Unfortunately, it's the hardest one. I dunno how people do this.
I still have the one pantheon to finish... I was hoping to see the last of the endings before release. Now, should I get it for switch, or wait for it to come to other platforms I have more storage space on?
Really interesting rankings. I appreciate that the switch games are at the bottom. So much more could be done with the games at the point we're at now. Also, Diamond&Pearl might make me a girl? 0-0'
Huh. Really interesting. I missed out on the hotline days, but I have heard about them. Wondered what it'd be like. And yeah. 100 NES games in a month sounds like it'd be torture. To a degree. But it'd make sense if they were all working together, and they had to complete them as a collective.
Well, I'd go with the energy theory, if I decided not to be boring and vote. Funnily enough, Metroid Prime actually give some detail on space pirates trying to replicate her morph ball, with predictable results.
I'm impressed it's that bad. Game development really does seem to be going downhill now compared to what they used to accomplish, given hardware restrictions.
@AnnoyingFrenzy Oh, absolutely Emperor Ing! I actually ran out of ammo a couple times. I also sometimes suffered against Quadraxis, and I forget the boss of the bog.
I still carry my 3ds with me everywhere, hoping for some. But mostly, I just get steps for the step counter. I never had much luck with streetpass outside comicon and other events. Kinda goes with living in the middle of nowhere.
I remember this chapter. It's been a while. Yeah, Nintendo had it right closer to the start. While I can understand them wanting different styles to keep the series from getting stale, limitations like what they have shouldn't be for the rest of the series.

Re: Feature: 17 Reasons To Be Excited About The Super Mario RPG Remake
@EarthboundBenjy This.
It could potentially completely revive the Mario RPG genre.
They've been obsessed with Toads for too long.
Re: 8BitDo Releasing Mod Kit For The Original N64 Controller, Adds Switch Support
I would probably get this just for the joystick.

Re: Totally Spies! Is Getting A New Console Game In 2024
Now that I've seen this article, I hope Code Lyoko gets a comeback too.
I gather Buffy the Vampire Slayer might return in some capacity too?
Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Version 1.3.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
I'm waiting on the save data bug to be fixed too.
Haven't played in over a month.

Re: PSA: Dragalia Lost Has Ended Its Service As Planned
Yeah, I never got to play much of Dragalia.
I would love to see it come to console.
Re: Pokémon Shuffle To Enter 'End Of Life' Service On 3DS In 2023
This is sad. I still play it regularly as a time waster.
Re: Review: Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series - A Classic Platforming Pair Worth Catching Again
What I have to wonder is, upon booting up the game the first time, I was asked to accept a license agreement.
I don't think these games have any online features.
Re: Backlog Club: July - If You Haven't Played Hollow Knight Yet, Here's Your Chance
Well, I've been at Hollow Knight on and off for some time.
I only have the one boss gauntlet left... Unfortunately, it's the hardest one. I dunno how people do this.
Re: Ubisoft Closing Online Services For Three Wii U Titles This September
So uh, what WERE the Zombii U online features?
Edit: Nvm, just looked up.
Re: Sonic Frontiers Gameplay Showcases A Pretty, But Sparse Open World
I'm looking forward to this. My big problem with it atm is that render distance though.
Hopefully that improves.
Re: Hogwarts Legacy Shares New Location Footage In 20-Minute ASMR Video
@WeLiveInASociety Which movie?
Re: Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series' Opening Cutscenes Are Colourful And Beautiful
I suppose this isn't getting a physical release in the US?
Re: Team Cherry (Kind Of) Shares Update About Development Status Of Hollow Knight: Silksong
I still have the one pantheon to finish...
I was hoping to see the last of the endings before release.
Now, should I get it for switch, or wait for it to come to other platforms I have more storage space on?
Re: Dragalia Lost To End Service Later This Year
I didn't get to play it much.
It's one of a handful I actually WANT to be ported to switch.
Re: Wonder Boy Collection Is Coming To Switch This Year
Is the "exclusive edition" supposed to be a collector's edition type thing, or is it more like it's just available to early adopters?
Re: Poll: Are You A Fan Of Nintendo Switch Online's Game Pass-Style Missions And Rewards?
Now, if only My Nintendo rewards didn't charge $7 shipping fees...
Re: Nightdive Studios Wants To Remaster Titles Like Eternal Darkness, But Hasn't Had Any Luck With Nintendo
@BloodyMurder If I may, how was Xenoblade X censored?
Re: Nintendo Is Ending 3DS & Wii U eShop Purchases In March 2023
Quite a few purchases I need to make.
This is the last chance to get a lot of DLC and retro games.
Re: Review: Cotton Fantasy - A Joyful, Mischievous, And Incredibly Varied Shmup
My question is, is this game fully translated, unlike the earlier Cotton games?
Re: Editorial: Happy New Year From Everyone At Nintendo Life
So, uh, just a note, but you do realize in filming Back to the Future part 2, they used actual hoverboards that were banned, right?
Re: Editorial: Merry Christmas And Happy Holidays From Nintendo Life
The codes site doesn't appear to use the same login?
Well, I would go for it, but, seems like a poor idea rn.
Merry Christmas!
Re: Video: Boundary Break Takes Another Look At The "Out Of Bounds Secrets" In Wii Sports
@Yosher Ah. Sounds about right.
Tbh I've been curious about your OC/persona for a while.
Re: Video: Boundary Break Takes Another Look At The "Out Of Bounds Secrets" In Wii Sports
@Yosher Would that be your Yoshi persona you were gonna make? Can't help but be curious about it.

And yeah. 100 NES games in a month sounds like it'd be torture. To a degree. But it'd make sense if they were all working together, and they had to complete them as a collective.
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Calls For Industry-Wide Support Of Game Preservation Via Emulation
Yeah. I see no Sonic 06 added.
I'm probably the rare person who'd want that. Also the original Halo saga. Most of my Xbox games aren't supported.
Re: Feature: Where Does Competitive Pokémon Go From Here?
@redpanda0310
This is so glaring.
I agree.
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield's Dada Zarude And Shiny Celebi Distribution Is Rolling Out Right Now
@JellyPop
It's a bit frustrating as I don't recall my login info.
I definitely had an account though.
They really need to get their act together.
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield's Dada Zarude And Shiny Celebi Distribution Is Rolling Out Right Now
I haven't gotten their newsletter in years.
I dunno why, cause I have had it checked and everything.
Re: Introducing Super Mario Eclipse - A New Super Mario Sunshine Mod Featuring An Expanded Story And Much More
Why do they release demos this early??
It's basically begging to get itself torn down.
Re: Feature: Seriously, What The Heck Is Going On Inside Samus’ Morph Ball?
Well, I'd go with the energy theory, if I decided not to be boring and vote.
Funnily enough, Metroid Prime actually give some detail on space pirates trying to replicate her morph ball, with predictable results.
Re: Video: Here's Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Sonic Colors Ultimate On Nintendo Switch
I'm impressed it's that bad.
Game development really does seem to be going downhill now compared to what they used to accomplish, given hardware restrictions.
Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy Had A Core Dev Team Of Four, Surprisingly
Agreed.
I did have some trouble at first, as I didn't know the boost ball had been upgraded so it can attack.
Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy Had A Core Dev Team Of Four, Surprisingly
@AnnoyingFrenzy
Oh, absolutely Emperor Ing! I actually ran out of ammo a couple times.
I also sometimes suffered against Quadraxis, and I forget the boss of the bog.
Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy Had A Core Dev Team Of Four, Surprisingly
I never actually had trouble with Spider Guardian on either version.
Only Boost Guardian.
But the bosses in general were harder in MP2.
Am I the odd one out?
Re: Tales Of Monsterland Is Yet Another New Game Boy Game, And It's Getting A Fancy Limited Edition
This looks neat honestly.
Hopefully it isn't too short a game.
Re: The Fan-Made 2D Metroid Prime Game Has Been Forced To Shut Down
This looks really neat! It's a shame it got a C&D, though not too surprising.
Re: Feature: Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, Or That Time Mario Got Movin’ To Mozart
I really enjoyed this game.
I'd love to set it up again. Never enough room to do so however.
I don't know if the dance pads still work or not. :/

Which game is the article's art from?
Re: Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Players Are Reporting A Frustrating Soft-Lock Glitch
@Pokester99 IKR?
I never got hit by any LoZ softlocks, but I'm definitely afraid of them.
It's amazing.
Re: Random: An Eager 3DS StreetPass Fan Spent A Day In New York, Got Zero Hits
I still carry my 3ds with me everywhere, hoping for some.
But mostly, I just get steps for the step counter.
I never had much luck with streetpass outside comicon and other events. Kinda goes with living in the middle of nowhere.
Re: Video: The Complete Story Of The Metroid Series
Only two games I don't have the plot mostly remembered for are Hunters, (Idk if First Hunt counts), and Federation Force, which I haven't played.
Re: Warframe Is Getting A Cross-Play And Cross-Save Update
I've waited a full console generation for this.
Re: Memory Pak: When Mario Became A Pro Wrestler And Ruled At It
I remember this chapter. It's been a while.
Yeah, Nintendo had it right closer to the start. While I can understand them wanting different styles to keep the series from getting stale, limitations like what they have shouldn't be for the rest of the series.
Re: 'The Lost Records' Is A New Fan-Made Expansion That Brings Skyward Sword To Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
Eh. I dunno when I'd be looking.
Thanks though!
Re: The Original Nexomon Game Is Coming Soon To Nintendo Switch
I thought it was gonna be an old flash based game remaster.
I barely recognize the name.
Re: 'The Lost Records' Is A New Fan-Made Expansion That Brings Skyward Sword To Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
@SortingHat Perhaps so.
I'm just awkward.
