Tried both demos and liked both. Didn't really noticed the framerate issues. Gonna buy it when both cost 30€ together. Have too much to play right now ( Monster Land IV on Mega Drive Mini and Monster World on Switch)
Pre order is live - just ordered it (regular version) - don't wanna pay 20 $ more for the soundtrack, even though it will be great but I am not much of a soundtrack listener
Personally, my favorite publisher this gen. Loved all their games so far. Even Dragon Marked for Death was absolutely fun to play single player. Played only with the Empress and it took me approx 40 hours - had more fun grinding in that game than in Diablo III
That's true but at least the first couple of issues did release bi-monthly while issue 11 keeps getting delayed, unfortunately. I don't believe anymore that Doomsday Clock will have a lasting impact on the DC Universe as it was suppose to have which is sad cause I really like it and Geoff John's writing style.
So - is there gyro cool in Doom 3? Love this surprise release! Bethesda rocks with its support for Switch - I really enjoyed Doom, Skyrim and Wolfenstein and am gonna pick up Doom Eternal, today's releases and Youngblood. So many great games on the Switch. There is never a drought and you constantly have to decide which game to pick.
I don't know about you - but I had to beat the final boss again till I was able to access the DLC - but it helped to get acquainted again with the controls.
Really? Why shouldn't such a game run at 60frames ? That would be hilarious if it turns out to be true. Switch is more than capable to run a Metroidvania at 60 frames. That would be a no go for me just like Sonic racing or crash team racing
is it me or does Shovel Knight's head look kinda small? Otherwise I am still not convinced to buy this game after all the delays. It still seems to lack polish. Gonna wait for reviews. Bloodstained the 8-bit game by Inti Creates was awesome, though
yes - I did - that's how I beat Sigma. I played through all the Megaman games - Megaman 1-10 and X1 -X8. Had no problems at all. I usually play with the Joy Con buttons and not the L stick. The Hadouken was indeed not always that easy to pull off - but manageable
Why do people complain about the price point? Because these are old games or 8-bit or 16-bit games? I gladly pay 50€ for a Megaman game even though it takes you only a couple of hours to play through. Games have been at that price point since Nes and Secret of Mana 3 gets its first release in English. You won't get everything for free. And as someone already pointed out - you pay only 14€ per game. That's a bargain. Since mobile games have been a thing, a lot of people expect games to cost only 1$. That is just sad.
@rhyeee3216 everybody is entitled to be hyped for games they like and if it is the case for this game - hey why not.
But compared to other games in this genre - I don't see the appeal except for the Marvel characters. And I am a huge comic book collector. I have to admit that I am not a big fan of Diablo-like games (I only spend 40 hrs on Diablo - I actually prefer Dragon Marked for Death) - I kinda think that gameplay is rather repetitive and a bit boring - especially when the level design looks as bland as in this Marvel game. Diablo 3 is doing a much better job in this case. The levels and dungeons and overworlds look way better (in my opinion).
But at the end - to each their own. If this game sells new Switches - hell, why not.
it may be like Diablo but it just doesn't look as entertaining. Looks very generic. I rather stick to Diablo and Dragon Marked for Death. I honestly can't believe that people would buy the Switch just because of this game.
@Megal0maniac Somehow it's been this way since the Wii or the Wii U era. Don't know why it is like this. Especially Warner Bros games like Injustice have been released on Nintendo consoles a week later than on other consoles
Love this game and can't wait for the DLC but I won't double dip. Has this been a physical release from the get go - I wouldn't have downloaded it. But I don't need two copies of a game.
I also thought it would be in the style of the intro sequence and was a bit disappointed even though I like the art style. But the intro was definitely misleading - at least for me.
@SetupDisk I'd rather have a new hand-drawn Mario game but now after New Super Mario Wii U Deluxe and Mario Maker 2, I guess I will have to wait at least 1-2 years.
Don't know what people expect - of course you will have to subscribe to Nintendo's online subscription. From a business standpoint I can't see why they shouldn't.
I guess I will pass on Mario Maker 2. I loved creating levels but all the loose levels and no overarching story etc is just not for me. Playing through 100 of less than mediocre created levels to find a couple good ones is no fun. And as already mentioned there is an abundance of very difficult and don't move levels - that's why I only spend 60 hrs with Mario Maker 1 and most of it creating handful of levels.
For what it is, I really liked Federation Force as a spin off (not a Metroid entry). And I played single player most of the time. But online coop worked also well. I would never say no to a sequel as long as main entries in the Metroid series continue to happen. I think that Federation Force would have had better reception after an entry in the main series.
I am German and it sounds right, unfortunately. Otherwise a lot of WB games (Injustice, DC Lego games etc) seem to be delayed at least one week on Nintendo consoles here in Europe without any reason. MK is not a WB game but still especially Amazon.de has sometimes a different release date for a multiplatform game for the Switch - I've always wondered why
I am definitely on board on the physical release. Actually I am quite happy about the late February release - that gives me enough time to 100 % Lego Villains on Switch (what a great game for DC fans )
Physical for me - Inti Creates have yet to disappoint me. Love to play through their games with each character. And 30 € seems really kinda cheap. Didn't mind to pay 55€ for Gunvolt Strikers Pack. They put a lot of love into their games and gameplay has always been fantastic.
I already use my Wii U Lan adapter since launch day cause the WiFi of the Switch is actually really bad. Splatoon 2 is so much better wired than playing wireless.
@Kalmaro
I know that I didn't play the hardest difficulty. And if I have the specific weapon to exploit the weakness of a boss - I use it. I just didn't use the gear system just a couple of times because I didn't really need it. I usually play the Megaman games on normal difficulty and most of the time it is difficult enough. This time, it is a bit on the easy side. I don't want to penalize myself by not using specific weapons, E tanks or whatsoever. These are all parts of the game. So in comparison to other MM games - this game is one of the easiest games. And I played through all MM (including MM and Bass) and MMX games this year ( plus Gunvolt 1+2 and Burst with all 9 characters) - so the degree of difficulty is quite noticeable for me. I still like it - especially the level design. Maybe I will test superhero mode. And Light's trial seems to be a bit more difficult. Even though I think that should have been DLC and would have preferred more Wily stages. Even Wily was beatable the first time I encountered him and I used only one E tank and no gear system except for the final blow. In older MM games Wily was quite tougher. Especially in MM 7 (or 8?)
Edit: don't forget- this is all based on normal difficulty across all MM games.
played through it, today. Good game - but a bit too easy. Maybe I should play the superhero mode. In my opinion they put too much effort on the challenges instead on the cutscenes (which are honestly awful - the gunvolt series did a better job here) and wily stages . Don't get me wrong - the wily stages that are included are great and fun but there could be more stages. I would also have preferred some secrets to find in this game. There are no Megaman letters or hidden rooms. Otherwise the graphics and gameplay are great. All in all - a 7 / 10 from me - not the best Megaman game but definitely not the worst.
@Refurin No - that is not true. According to the Nintendopulse podcast, it is possible to transfer everything, even save data if I remember correctly. Head over to rezd.tv and ask them
