Welp, now to see if there'll be leaks, and a supremely ticked off Nintendo, cause, y'know, them vs the internet.

I'm seeing the official names now..
Honestly, I feel like the name for Zelda's maid was better in romanized Japanese.

Lanaria. Reference to Lanayru maybe?
But nahhh.

Faron is still the only region to not have the name of a golden goddess in it.

Articuno having that extra appeal as a pokemon you needed to solve a puzzle to reach. It was right there the whole time.

Lugia being the main for the first movie I saw in theaters... (I couldn't handle other movies at the time. Toy Story 2 scared me half to death.)

Flygon being another fave of mine.

Wow. This list is so relatable in so many places.

While we have our differences (I was never sociable enough back then to actually have playground talk, but heard of Pikablu all the same), I actually have a bunch of these on my list as Pokemon I like/appreciate, notable differences being that I always picked fire (not the Japanese name for Moltres, but the starter), and that I could never afford the Switch Pokemon DLC.

Huh.
I mostly played without knowing which classes did what.

Had no idea Angela's Light set could do more than her dark. I had Keven dark all the way as well, with just one spell iirc.
And finding out Charlotte was a healer was a big deal.

Second run, I picked Hawkeye as my main. Just gotta get back to it.

@Jayenkai This, though I see it already got a reply.
I only ever interacted with a team member like, once.

Best wishes Zion!

Interesting idea.
Probably proof FEH really is gonna end soon though.

Was never good at this type of game though.

I found myself wondering if the Kong names are inherited, like titles. Not sure as of yet.
But Pauline inheriting a name from a former Pauline makes some sense too.

Huh. What's the difference between NES version and FDS version?

Greedy greedy greedy, it's the name of the show.
Greedy greedy greedy, they've got wallets y'know?

Yeah. Just feels like another prideful and greedy step to mirror some of the other stuff they've done lately.

Last betrayal of this nature I remember though, was when the Pokemon anime was taken from 4kids, prob for good reason, and they decided they wouldn't spend a cent more than they had to for the dub.. I didn't notice it at the time, but the OG VAs weren't the only ones shafted...

Hope the contractors find good work.

@Tyranexx
Eh. Ups and downs.

Lack of Golden Sun for 15 years has me bothered though.

As well as all the DLC.

@ndunsmo
Seriously? Where is this stated?

@WaveBoy
Yup. If only I noticed it was under $20, instead of over $70...

I'm just like, do I take my game out with this event over? Or keep it in for another one?

@Tyranexx
Fair. Life happens. Still nice seeing you around.

Direct came and went. Instead of GS, we got a truckload of dlc. Even the premium sub got paid dlc. Gotta love it.

@WaveBoy
Meanwhile, I'm reminded of my big VB oopsie...
Passing one up for $19....

@Yoshi3

This.
This direct was the direct of paid dlc.

Even the premium subscription is getting paid dlc in the form of virtual boy games.

I've been upset with them since OG switch, and now they've gotten cocky from their success, to the point they're burning it as fuel.

@Flashlink99

Especially that environment...

Honestly, seeing all the traps in this game caught me off guard.

I ended up spoiled on the bench, but simply had to experience it for myself anyway.

Nowhere near as bad as the unnecessary double damage bosses imo. Especially considering the playable character is at least somewhat known for using traps herself.

@Tyranexx Ohhh yes. 4 is a must to me. But they'd probably need to make a remake package first.

And I figured. Even I'm feeling the burden.

I'd say, it isn't the difficulty that gets me. Rather, some cheapness with bosses.

The boss I most recently defeated had a neat gimmick where, aside from its two attack patterns, it summons other enemies to fight. But the boss does double damage, making an early game boss insanely difficult and cheap.

The idea is clear enough, but the double damage ruins it.

Having said that, I like the occasional cheap surprise.
The traps are a neat inclusion.

I wouldn't say too hard, no..
Just overly cheap in the boss department.

Optional fix please~

@Tyranexx

Nice seeing you!

Glorious retro music this is!
Now I just need my Golden Sun 4...

@ShieldHero

This is why I would get the OG Switch version, and upgrade.

Welp, mine finally started. Just a few hours of downloading to go.

@Oldstalk
DSL buddy?
Or no?

Well, it ain't showing as released on PSN...

@mctrials23
So...the eshop has actually crashed?

Loads shop of my choosing

**isn't listed as out yet**

***Maybe resetting will help?***

This is very much a "I need more money and storage room" sale.

Unfortunate that neither is available atm.

I could care less when it's coming. I just know that it's coming.

Please let it be a timeslot I have a budget during!

Bout time! Now, price?

@ottoecamn
Yeah. Considering the canon.....especially with Muzet.

@Aurumonado
Like a fool, I went and got platinum for both Xillias.

So uh. Don't beat yourself up.

I'm still trying to figure if this is more farming sim RPG, or if it has some JRPG.
Also wanna know how much mythology.

Now I'm interested.

Idek the kind of game Shinobi is.

Ninja Gaiden like?

Apologies, but having been seeing the current iteration of the anime subbed, Imma go with "Rekkuza"...

That aside, my big pronunciation debate is if you canonically have to call the god of the pokemon world an arse anytime you refer to him by name.

@breach187
This.

I know Phantasia got a PSP remake, but only in Japan.

I aim to get that with a translation patch.

Also, @ShieldHero I've been at the games for a while.
They have different styles throughout the series. While I personally started with Symphonia, a lot of ppl say Vesperia is the best one.

Silksong is slated for this year. Probably finally a given.

@sethfranum

This has been a problem for a long time.
Arguably, digital can cost more.

Nintendo never discounts their big games much, but retailers? They do.

I'm honestly glad that this article refers to how he made his games. Puts a lil more emphasis on the fact he had a role.

Anyway, gotta wonder where in 'bama Birmingham is... I keep forgetting, but I think it's a lot further north than I'm up for going.

Survey was only there a handful of hours...

I wanted to put my opinion out there.

Also, to the two discussing it, how would a used market for digital games even work? You can't buy digital secondhand...

Is this a particularly good set of Atelier games?
And can I ever expect discounts?

It says the survey is not currently active?

I'm still trying to download it.
Switch 2 appears to have been anti-optimized for older internets.

Something they backported to OG Switch as well.

So Nintendo devices are literally the only ones that don't fully function on my internet now.

I'm looking forward to trying it though! Stupid name could become a gameseller. My problem is, why HD-2D again??

Oh joy...
Sony can influence things even more now?

I don't want that.
It's already frustrating enough having what's already the case.

@darkfenrir Good.
I just confirmed with my local store.

Ultimately, I want to lessen the storage burden on my switch 2, and have as many of these games as possible available for either system.

@Dr_Lugae
Mario Party probably.

And I didn't know that era alone had three!
I think these days, people are more hyper-aware. Especially of Nintendo, as they are more or less gaming Disney now, in terms of reputation.

@JJtheTexan
I mean, Pokemon USA did similar way back before they changed their name..

I strongly dislike what Nintendo is right now.

Interesting thought though, which Toad was it I knew from the N64 era?

I'm just wondering if there's an upgrade path.
I don't wanna limit this to my switch 2.
