This is a fantastic game. Tbh tho my only problem is that an integral part of the experience is surround sound, so I don't see how it will be as effective in docked mode
The problem is that you can already play BIS on the 3DS. Mario and Luigi is one of my favourite RPG series, and I didn't even buy this game, not cause I don't want it, but because I already have pretty much exactly the same game already.
I just hope that they take this as "we need to make a new M and L on switch" and not "no-one wants to play M and L"

I'm going to be honest. I genuinely really like the original. It has fun gameplay, incredibly good characters with fantastic chemistry, is full of awesome moments and music, and whilst the story is flawed, it is nevertheless deeply moving.
That being said, what theyve done post-launch has been genuinely terrible.
Despite breaking even with development costs on Day One, SE seem to be milking it for all it's worth. I stuck by it to begin with. I got the first season pass, and I really enjoyed some of it, especially Episode Ignis. Then they started regularly updating it so that the file size was almost 100 GB. They added meaningless clothing options that were blatant marketing, like the cup noodle cap. They then announced more DLC, expanding on things that should really have been discussed in the base game, and demanded even more money for a SECOND season pass (i decided not to spend any more money on this game at this point). They then make a few new dungeons, a new boss or two and add some cutscenes. Good, things are going in the right direction! ...for £20. They finally port a mobile game to consoles, including the PS4 and Xbox One, where the original is already available, for a worryingly simialr price.
Sorry, rant over. I'm honestly not hating on this game, or the series, both of which I love, only the way that it has been handled since. I just wanted to show how they have dramatically changed my opinion on this game simply because of the way they have handled it and the sheer amount of money they have demanded from me.
Such a good direct. Every single thing i see about this game makes me want it more and more and more. Every single character, the abundance of stages, over 800 pieces of music, all these new modes and even a hidden one (cmon please be subspace). I'm just blown away. December can't come fast enough!
I feel like people are just making a big deal about things for the sake of making a big deal. Maybe I'm missing something, but I really don't get how people would find this offensive at all?? He's simply trying to look like a Pokemon, nothing more, nothing less.
Every company is constantly scared of being in the firing line that political correctness is going way too far.
@electrolite77 the man at nintendo I've spoken to said that a fair few people have mentioned this. But I honestly think something like a petition needs to be created to really let them knwo how many people have this issue.
I sent my switch with a crack to nintendo a few days ago. They told me it would cost £150 to repair, and despite me phoning up and saying it was a common problem and not my fault, they refused to budge on the price, so I asked them to send it back. I honestly cannot believe it.
How is the story going to work in this game? Will it be like you play all characters chapter 1s, then 2s etc and then all your goals align and there's one big final battle?
This game honestly looks so so good though I cannot wait
I dont really get how the story works. Will u play as each character individually then all come together for a final battle that you unlock at the end?
I thought it was very good, but there could've been more time given to other announcements and less given to smash. Saying that, smash was amazing and i cannot wait!
Oh also, a little bit of info, if you go onto the smash bros website, they've updated it completely and it's very slick. Plus, they added some new music tracks, including a track for the new Breath of the Wild stage and the new theme! Check it out!

Re: Nintendo Confirms Metroid Prime 4 Will Skip E3 2018
Disappointing, but fair i think. I'd rather get gameplay that wows me in a few months than something a little worse right now.
