@AlexSora89 I think Nintendo will win it all the way. There Switch is amazing. In fact, I am having trouble of thinking of future consoles that can be better than this.
@Anti-Matter What I really want to see is Rocket Knight in the style of the first Genesis game (the second one did not really look as good as the first and the remake was not my cup of tea).
@Paul1994 I think they need to change the formula more. However, it does not bother me about the full Pokedex. I mean realistically, not ever continent has a lion in its ecosystem.
@Moroboshi876 There is enough spectacle in the background and interactions with characters to help play through solo. In fact, compare it with a very linear beat'em up like Shaq-Fu and this game is leagues ahead. Another good beat'em up with a good spectacle and character interaction for solo players is the recent River City Girls.
Yup. Spamming. That is all the AI did. I really didn't enjoy fighting games until Marvel Vs. Capcom where they allowed me to press a button for a fireball attack. Dragonball Z Budokai 2 and 3 improved upon that by removing those diagonal steps to perform an attack.
@carlos82 Those were fine. I am talking about Mario games that were not just sports or party games. Funny enough, the WII had more Mario adventure games and less Fox, Metroid, and Pikmin that were not rereleases.
I love the Gamecube, but I felt it was a bit over saturated with Mario Party games. It would have been nice to have another main game Mario entry or other adventure game.
@Silly_G Awesome explanation. I would like to add that each sheet would be hand painted. A really tedious task. A lot 2D animation still does this but many are doing it on a computer to save paper and plastic sheets.
No need for a demo. Dragon Quest games are fun. Only problem is that you need a long break after finishing one. Playing them back to back is just too much.
@TurboTEF They need to choose the good stuff from the comics and animate those. Before the reboot and cancellation Sally was a killer robot, Antoine's face blew up, and Eggman was on a rampage. I know that Archie Sonic online continued the storyline. Chech it out.
@SakurabaNeku Which is why the original Switch is genius. I always worry about handhelds having a piece break off. Being be to snap the remotes off and get replacements is a good fix (not including the drift issue). The Switch Lite feels like a step back but I know a lot of people are waiting for it.
Honestly, the Switch feels like the ultimate design choice. I wonder how anything can top it. The pick up and go aspect is just so great.
@Onion Mortal Kombat was pretty good. The worst part was giving Scorpion a sentient spear. Other than that it still provides a good skeleton to make an even better remake.
@BakaKnight Disney got it right. Why not any other company? Is this like a principles thing? Do they want to be creative and step away from the norm? Like Michael Bay's TMNT? I can respect that, but that is pretty looking.
@Wavey84 How did you manage it. I stopped when I entered the cave (or some infrastructure) after making it out of the jungle? I looked up videos online and was turned off when I saw that most of the enemies were rehashes of Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2.
@Gs69 I agree. I think DMC 3 and probably the newest one are more worthy to replay since the others did not hit the mark, (DMC 1 did not have much of that attitude from anyone except Dante. DMC 2 Dante is just too serious and takes away his carefree attitude. I am not too sure about DMC 4 though- haven't played it).
@NinjaWaddleDee Yes. It does not have to be with blood either. I think the multiplayer in the 3DS Kid Icarus Uprising was going in that direction. Or even a Splatoon game that allows you to play arena mode with bots (similar to Timesplitters).
@Mailman Can you elaborate on what you think that would look like? It is kind of hard to think of something that has nailed the genre so well. Personally, I would like one similar to the style of Super Mario World but with more mechanics.

Re: Random: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is About Video Games, So Don't Expect Goku Or Iron Man
@AxeltheCorvikni Dragon Quest is pretty much Dragonball Z so as far as I am concerned, Goku is already in.
