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.

Re: The Original DOOM, DOOM II And DOOM 3 Are Available On Switch Now

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.

Re: Secret Of Mana 3 Remake Coming To Nintendo Switch, Collection Of Mana Out Now

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.

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.

Re: Super Mario Maker 2 Confirmed For Switch, Launches This June

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.

Re: Feature: Please Understand: Unpacking Nintendo's Vision For Metroid Prime 4

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.

Re: Mortal Kombat 11 On Switch Appears To Have Been Delayed Until May In Europe

NintendoPete

@penamiguel92

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

Re: Dragon: Marked for Death Delayed Until January 2019

NintendoPete

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 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.

Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Complete Analysis Of Mega Man 11

NintendoPete

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.
