@KingBowser86 yeah, but SPM, despite being that, is enjoyable. I like games that subvert expectations, but classic good vs evil is fine every once in a while.
@DDFawfulGuy good God, is this the 2nd time today that I misread something. I read it as "I was disappointed it was turn based" instead of that it wasn't. Terribly sorry for the confusion 😅
@TheFrenchiestFry you're welcome 🙂. And I get whee your coming from. Personally, I like the social aspect, getting to decide who your friends with, it's awesome. Though I do find it ironic because of your pfp lol.
@jtmnm makes sense. I'd highly recommend the steam one, it won't disappoint. And yeah, hard to pull me away from certain games too (if you can pull me from Splatoon, I'd be surprised). It was actually my boyfriend who recommended it, super happy he did 😁
@ShadJV popular, but pokemon is popular, and if pokemon fell off the earth and froze to death, I'd do a happy dance. Most people like popular stuff, that's why it's popular, but the key word is most.
@AJDarkstar huh. Interesting. Then again, it was at a secondhand video game shop with fan made amiibos (without the amiibo part, obviously), so I'm not surprised.
@gcunit it's not totally related, but it's the same vein of thought. On Zelda Dungeon, I know that they will not. Shut. Up. About different BOTW is. Like, stop it! I get articles about it, that's fine, but there was one article where they knocked it down. On a SS article. Ugh 😣
@RabidPikachu yeah, but it's included in Nintendo Online and on the NES classic, along with the SNES classic. Plus, downloading them is super easy 😉. I'll give it to you on the GBA games though, but that's what virtual console on the Wii U is for
@hotgamer77 Yeah. TBH, I was confused why they bothered to do this but one guy who decided to respond to me (not naming any names) decided to be a female dog about it.
@the_beaver God I loved Huey in CS. That's what I was hoping Olivia would be. I hate overtly positive characters, they make me want to gag and die (I'm a pessimist. This is also why I hated Haru from P5).
@Deltath you said Iron Man appearing at the end of the Incredible Hulk didn't make it an Iron Man movie, but funny enough, I've started pretending that mistake of a movie was never made.
@Deltath The truth is, sales don't lie. And at the end of the day, I still bought all these games (someone gave me SS and I got Paper Jam second hand. I also don't have 64). Nintendo keeps raking in cash, and we keep buying. Money makes a monster out of a man. It's a vicious, vicious cycle.
@SteveDaSteve A. Your pfp is hilarious B. The game itself was meh, but the resource hoarding...there was no reason to. In TTYD, you might waste power ups, but it was to level up, which made the game easier (funny enough, I played P5 as a stealth game to make it harder). In SS, fighting was just a waste of time.
@Deltath you have a point. The thing is, NSMB made Mario a bit stale, and Zelda was rinse and repeat. They kinda NEEDED to be different, but I get what your saying. Most series have at least a callback to the older ones (3d world), which is what people want. Then, they may be less pissed off at everything else about Paper Mario.
@RPGamer yeah, I don't blame people for not liking stuff (except for P5 Royal, that game is a masterpiece), but you can't call fans bad people...makes you look like a massive idiot.
@Trajan it's a bit complicated...there ARE guides out there if you'd like to learn how. Essentially, the SNES classic is still 2017 technology...you can hack it. They don't run SUPER well, if you've got virtual console, use that. You download 64 games onto your computer, hook it up to your SNES classic, and boom.
@roadrunner343 I personally didn't get the NES mini (you can download those games onto a SNES Mini), but this...2k? Come on, did they seriously expect that to do well?
@PALversusNTSC A. NTSC. It's in Japan (and America, but I don't care about that.) B. They said open world, but it wasn't too open. The world is great, but my expectations got the better of me and made me disappointed.

Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@I-U I prefer Odyssey, but TOK is good too. Definitely better than NSMBUD (what a mouthful)
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Lettersnnumbers ugh, holding you hand games. If there's a mode for that, that's fine, but don't force me to do it.
Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Ninfan is it available on the Wii U virtual console. If it is, I may get it just to see if I would like the series.
Re: Ninjala Version 2.0 Adds Worldwide Matchmaking, Improves The UI And Much More
@Specters thought it was a Splatoon clone from the beginning. Watched some videos, was proven right. Glad I didn't waste my money
Re: Ninjala Version 2.0 Adds Worldwide Matchmaking, Improves The UI And Much More
Ninjala didn't have worldwide matchmaking before now? What the heck?
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@StephenYap3 I do love the bosses though...makes me think a lot more than I typically do in quarantine, which is nice.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Anti-Matter I've never played FFVIII, did it have horrible resource crunch and no reason to fight? Asking for a friend!
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@jtmnm can't say I've played either...I may have to give them a whirl. What consoles are they on?
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?

Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@GX_64 don't quit a game because people say crap about it, quit a game because you hate it. Give it a go!
Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Ninfan I'm personally going to buy it, but if you'd like to try it, go ahead!
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Maulbert I don't think of them as gatekeepers per se, just nostalgic kid adults (like people in their 20s is what I mean).
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@DDFawfulGuy I hope that was a typo. It wasn't turn-based. That was everyone's beef with it.

Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Lettersnnumbers I didn't get very far into Dream Team, but I hated Paper Jam. Why did you dislike Dream Team?
Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Ninfan Beats of Rage. It's a fan made one. And @AJDarkstar yeah, I was a bit surprised too.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@SteveDaSteve that's true. In some RPG'S fighting is a blast. However, that one...didn't do it for me.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@jtmnm you call yourself an admitted RPG fan. So, have you played a Persona game? Nobody on here seems to like them, besides @TheFrenchiestFry
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Maulbert who? And I don't mean to sound nasty, and I'm trying to be as nice as possible while saying this.
I.
Don't.
Care.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Lettersnnumbers my vote would go to Bowser's Inside Story, TBH.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@NintendoByNature You might as well not bother. It's...really bad.
Re: Analogue Is Retiring Its Amazing Nt Mini After One Final Production Run
@Trajan I'm no whiz, and I kinda pull up a tutorial on incognito mode everytime I need to do it 🤷🏽♀️. Like I said, they run like trash.
Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Crockin thank goodness, guh huh! Otherwise...
You and I will go to war. No questions asked

Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Menardi well, it is an opinion based article, but I won't judge. Except for DKR being on here as one of the best. Those are just straight facts.

Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Ninfan I saw a battletoads for the dreamcast the other day, should I snag it?
Re: Feature: Rare Turns 35 This Week - We Pick 10 Highlights From The Nintendo Years
@Crockin oh, I didn't mean Diddy Kong Racing, I love that one. I meant Super R.C. Racing or something (I'm too lazy to scroll back up and check).
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@NintendoByNature what was the first, if you don't mind me asking?
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Deltath don't think there can be a bad Iron Man movie 😉
Re: Nintendo Details Switch, Wii U And 3DS Network Maintenance Across August And September

Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@1UP_MARIO Don't. Even. Bother.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@MrBlacky You rated Origami King the same as TTYD...care to explain?

Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@Dr_Corndog
Yeah, I play games for story (my pfp comes from a JRPG), but then again, I have been able to enjoy games with not that much story.
Re: Analogue Is Retiring Its Amazing Nt Mini After One Final Production Run
@roadrunner343 ohhhhh...I still think 500 dollars is too much, but it's a least a little better

Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@RPGamer I was going to rag on you for SPM being better than TTYD, but you rated them the same, so okay. But you rated SS 5/10
Ready boys, aim, FIRE!

Re: Analogue Is Retiring Its Amazing Nt Mini After One Final Production Run
@Trajan okay, now I feel stupid. Haven't played 3. Forgive me.
Re: Analogue Is Retiring Its Amazing Nt Mini After One Final Production Run
@roadrunner343
I personally didn't get the NES mini (you can download those games onto a SNES Mini), but this...2k? Come on, did they seriously expect that to do well?
Re: Poll: What's The Best Paper Mario Game?
@PALversusNTSC
A. NTSC. It's in Japan (and America, but I don't care about that.)
B. They said open world, but it wasn't too open. The world is great, but my expectations got the better of me and made me disappointed.
