Well seeing as though Chris Pratt couldn’t do an Italian accent for fear of offending everyone he did the best job he could. I mean what is Mario sound like when he’s not Charles martinet? Exactly we don’t have a back up voice so I think he did a great job
@Nua i wonder why they never released it for PAL, was it too late in the NES life for you guys at that point? Either way it throw us all off when X came before 6 did lol
@Martijn87 same here, both are amazing but nostalgia reasons locked my vote for NA/EUROPE version. I remember the day my Dad brought this game home for me back in ‘94 and my initial reaction was “Mega Man 10?? What happened to 6,7,8 and 9?” Lol.
I agree with the change in their work schedule. People are too overworked, overwhelmed and overstressed. And G*d forbid you work less than 40 hours a week here in the U.S. because most view you as lazy with a terrible work ethic.
I did the math. I work 8-5 Monday - Friday. I get up at 5:00am, have a cup of coffee and play games for a half hour or so then I gotta take care of the animals, make lunch, shower and get ready for work, I leave my house by 7 and with commute, I am not home until about 5:30. Gotta make dinner, clean up and by then it’s about 7-7:30. Im in bed by 9-10p, so that gives me about 2-3 hours a day to chill and relax.
Weekends always seem busier than workdays with getting stuff done around the house, errands, various parties and get togethers etc. it really doesn't ever feel like I have time to myself. Then if im stuck working overtime then those 2-3 hours are out the window.
A 4-day regular work week would help tremendously with my stress and mental health.
@somnambulance touche. Gotta get that second switch man, just one for you lol. My wife loved to hog the switch all the time to play botw, so I eventually got her her own. And yeah im hoping playtime is 10-15 hours, thats a solid playthrough imo. Which 2 indie games are you referring to?
@dartmonkey thanks man, that is quite informative and I completely understand it now. It’s funny because I was playing Switch Sports and would always notice people “teleporting” whilst playing Tennis or Badminton, i thought they were cheating. Turns out it’s rollback netcode, however; that proved a disadvantage as them “teleporting” would enable them to rally back shots that they normally wouldn't get to in to time, so it has it’s pros and cons imp
@Patendo if you go to the page it says “Estimated release date 6/16” wtf lol, does it have to be 6/16 for the whole world before we get a chance to play? Hahahaha
@Chocobo_Shepherd You know what, when the son of the deposed king of Nigeria emails you directly, asking for help, you help! His father ran the freaking country! Ok?
Playing this now, about 15 or so hours in and it’s amazing. Has a nice challenge to it but you learn from your mistakes quickly. Feels like Dread + Guacamelee with the comedy of a Saturday morning cartoon.
@MatoFilipovic well good news! Pokemon Legends Arceus doesnt have two versions and it allows you to fill the entire pokedex without having to trade with others to complete it
None of them. Sadly after 9 generations, this is the first gen I will be sitting out. The game looks gorgeous and looks like its going to have potential, but it’s open world and I am not a fan of these types of games. I certainly wish nothing but the best and am hopeful this game will blow past SWSH but I am passing for the first time in 24 years.

@Chlocean still counts as there is a lot of depth to that game, and Yoshi doesn’t do typical 3d platformers

Re: Poll: Are You Excited About Pokémon Scarlet And Pokémon Violet?
For the first time in 24 years I will be passing on new gen pokemon games. I am not a fan open world games but these should do fairly well.
