I have a faint memory of being insanely frustrated as a little kid at the Bianco Hills Secret in Mario Sunshine, bawling my eyes out. I died countless times and seeing the Game Over screen made it much worse. Was the first time I realized giving up and coming back was the best option. Was too determined though.
I was thinking about the direction of the nintendo switch, I think the next switch if not the switch pro will definitely be a nintendo phone. This way they can make the form factor small and still keep everything loved about the og switch but also appeal towards a broader demographic.
There's no way nintendo is going to release switch 2 this year (or maybe even next year), the timing isn't right. There are too many good first party switch games coming this year for that to happen.
Well good at the very least I don't think he should take on the stress of directing games anymore. But I would hope behind the scenes they are training the next smash bros director. It seems like quite the honorable position despite the stress.
As an online service I'd like to see them add an online feature so I can play games online without getting disconnected. (Also I'm using ethernet and really fast download/upload speeds but still get lag only on switch not pc) I liked the nes/snes games from the beginning even though we can't own them for life they are a good selection
It's very hard for me to rate these because on one hand I love the wacky and weirdness of the originals but on the other hand the newer ones have great charm to them too
Is it weird that I want to see Monokuma in this game? I know it's not related to Danganronpa but the mascot is too dang good to not use over and over again.
If I had the money I would buy the dang ip from nintendo and make my own dang chibi robo games with an indie game dev team, it's a shame ips never get used if they don't make enough money
I'm so confused, they were talking about the top secret research facility that Shadow is in, why wouldn't they make this movie around the plot of Sonic Adventure 2 then? If characters unrelated to Sonic Adventure 2 are included how would that make any sense?
I don't even think this was that new of a concept to Nintendo games, a lot of Nintendo characters are purposely gender neutral so that they feel relatable to whoever is playing them. Removing genders from animal crossing felt very natural and inclusive who's to say Inklings need labels either?
I have a hunch nintendo is doing that thing again that they do every once in a while where they get so caught in themselves that they forget to listen to their fans
There were things in Balan Wonderworld that were very odd to me even if they had more time to flesh them out, (the farmer scene) I think Yuji Naka lost his touch. I also think changing Sonic's ring mechanic TWO WEEKS before release is extremely dangerous and he got lucky that this design philosophy worked this well for so long. Ideally you shouldn't make games while changing your vision as you go.
There aren't too many Sega games that I personally think could use new remakes, however one optimistic theory from this could be that remakes will make it easier for sequels to be made which is what I really want.
I'm still worried about the subscription model, I'm sure a lot of people prefer being able to buy one or two retro games that they like and could keep forever.
I still want to complete Brilliant Diamond before I even buy Legends and then I gotta complete Legends before buying Violet which by then we'll see another spinoff and so forth. I also want to play Sword and Shield and Pokemon Snap. I already have enough catching up to do.
