Dogg now and forever. I'd like to think I'm the calm and thoughtful until someone expresses mutual interest in a hobby of mine, in which the bubbly hyper side comes out. As far as people go, how they treated me in the past is how I think of them now. For better or for worse

It definitely looks good and the animations are smooth, but perhaps with the mention of Undertale and recently finishing OMORI that I feel skeptical. As long as it can deliver in the writing, I'm sure it will be great, but I'll wait to see its reception, but without knowing a price I don't know what to expect

I love how Farfetch'd and Mew get watercolor-esque paint blotches and Vulpix gets SPARKLES.

Not that I'm complaining. It gave Vulpix a more refined aura that would carry over to its evolution. These cards are what first got me into Pokemon.

I played it every day loyally for the first few months. Then it was around Halloween that I finally stopped. It just...empty. Like the shop would only stock like 10 different pieces of furniture. Every recipe I would get would be a duplicate (even though I wasn't even close to getting them all). And after looking at the updates and remembering all the cool villager interactions with the furniture in Pocket Camp, I accepted that I needn't blame myself. The game is beautiful and it was fun for a while, but it seems to put way too much focus on travelling to other people's islands and not enough on the game itself. Even thinking of the villagers simply flying a kite in PC gives me a smile, but the most interesting thing the villagers do in NH is take pictures of things.

The game was ambitious, but there were a lot of things that tipped the scales for me (Isabelle serving no purpose, my island getting horrible RNG for Celeste and Redd, etc)

Fighters with history: Terry, Hero, Banjo and Kazooie

And then there's Steve...

If the game is well done, I will get this bundle. The only Rune Factory I haven't played is Tides of Destiny, but I've loved every one I've played. I am more than willing to support more

So top tier is gen 1 and memes. Even though they're in the top half, Rowlett and Torchic deserve better. Especially Torchic

Perfect score. My first and probably last lol

I was going to bash the game for the blatancy indicated in the tagline, but just looking at the Steam page and the reviews so far makes it look promising. If it has as much polish and charm as Hades does, I may get it day 1.

Still it's a bit difficult to compare it to the game that got an Overly Positive (98%) rating on Steam with over 10,000 reviews before it was even out of early access

I agree with earlier comments when it comes to comparing the furniture in New Horizons to Pocket Camp. Perhaps that's another reason the game feels stagnant with Nooklings just rotating stock is that at least Pocket Camp has so much more furniture with so much more interactability for the villagers. And this from furniture you still have to craft (also, adjust the drop rate for unobtained recipes, dangit! I don't want to be forced to take a fifth golden toilet recipe!)

Also I want my Red Riding Hood wolf plushies in New Horizons. That alone would make me soooo happy

"Man, the new Assassin's Creed sure looks different from what I remember," I said to myself before reading the rest of the title :facepalm:

Lord, the comment on UGC made me wince. Such things are fine in Mario Maker and the like, but I bought the game as a single player experience. I've never done online island hopping. I've hosted a few people so I could give them the doubles of some of my recipes. I'm just very disappointed in that some of the stuff (like different styles/color variations) can only be gotten through island hopping.

I may just be an antisocial hermit, but most of my gaming time is solo. I hoped the online aspect wouldn't be as important as it is, but I got my hopes up too high for this day and age

11/16 for a game I haven't played in a few years. I still love the hidden gem that is Satori Mountain

Came to check how to get the hidden scene. Wish it was something like getting all the secret shells. Looks like I'd have to start over again. Though I don't want to go back through with fricking Moldworm as the first boss!!

@Bermanator Sure, it'll be around next year, but that would be if I was even playing it by then. I've clocked in less and less these days with not much bringing me back

@LatsaSpege I do agree with you on the timed stuff. Though I'd also like to add that it's a bit annoying that you can only get the last few holiday DIYs on that specific day. Because then the event is over. For a lot of them (ex: Bunny Day), I don't want to keep the decorations up for long past the holiday.

It might be just me, but I was very disappointed to learn that the best Halloween recipes could only be gotten that day. Decorating before an event is half the fun for me.

The description made me think of Dead Cells lol. However, this one really isn't doing anything for me. The 'art' has almost no personality whatsoever. And perhaps this is just my preferred playstyle, but 'weighty' controls always just felt sluggish and laggy to me. I'll just stick with Hades, Hollow Knight, and Dead Cells for my roguelike fix

It's sad, because I LOVE most of the new Pokemon designs. The gym leaders were given a bit more personality. But everything else was terrible. Hop seeming to pop up around EVERY corner wanting to battle, the story sucked, and everything felt so lackluster.

Then there's the online stuff. Whoever designed that system needs to be demoted and to bring back a working system, at least to Gen 6.

I used to play it every day since launch, but now it seems I barely touch it once a week. I've just found it so frustrating how the shop only cycles through a few items of little to no variety (I guess to encourage visiting other islands, but I like to keep my games single player).

That, and how my usual objective of collecting DIY recipes always ends up with me getting the same ones over and over again without even giving me the option when a villager gives me one. And I've given up trying to find Celeste every month. The zodiac furniture may be pretty, but RNG has made it far too much of a hassle.

Reminds me of when I was playing Puzzle Quest and one of the character's names was code. At least in that case it was tiny and at the bottom corner of the screen.

Unlike this, where it seems to literally scream "WE MADE A MISTAKE"

Wish I didn't have to redownload one of the mobile games just to earn platinum points efficiently. I used to have thousands pile up, but they've long expired. This is when I wish they didn't expire 😡

The character at the end gave me some Vaati vibes. Dark cloak, magic, red eyeball headpiece. I can only hope he may be reintroduced in the series

The fourth screenshot makes me realize that white Kirby looks a lot like a Ghast 0_0

No probs. I was just as frustrated with the Mario pinsru running out before one of the tasks could be completed, so I getcha

@dkxcalibur Wouldn't that fall to the Pokemon Company? I thought Nintendo just had its hand in it in the video game process

@AM7519 I only got my preordered physical copy on Tuesday (forgot to mention that), so I still would've been too late. The Mario Kart mission was just the one I was most annoyed with

I love how half the stuff just has a link for "Buy from Fangamer" lol

I was just waiting for the 29th for the site to acknowledge completing the Mario Kart Tour mission. Should never had gotten my hopes up. Just makes me miss the old Club Nintendo even more...

Got the game. I was really enjoying it until I got to the ice level. I triggered a few lines, but then I can't move. Buttons do nothing. Restarting the level only lets me get to the exact same spot, this time stopping without the conversation. I want to finish it, but I can't

10/12 with the misses being from the Wii and WiiU indie questions. Not too shabby

Whatever it is, I hope it brings Entei back into the spotlight. Of the trio, I've always had a soft spot for the fluffy fire pup-pup :3

Also, it would be amazing if we could ride them again, like in Guardian Signs and the first Let's Go!!

I'm always torn on whether I should get WILL or not. It seems interesting, but still a tad expensive even at sale price...

Dang I got excited reading the headline so I checked MyNintendo before openning the article.
I live in Canada

Oh god we get to watch the Champions die T_T

...I liked Goblin Sword... But anyone who loves platformers should get Hollow Knight. I consider it an indie masterpiece

Will have to pick this up at some point. I loved Undertale and Doom & Destiny, so this'll fit nicely in my library

Was I the only one who almost thought they were going to re-sell this to us again? The fact that it's free (for Nintendo Online Subscribers) is the biggest plus for me.

Plus, All Stars was one of the first games I ever played. I'm not that much better at platformers, but I'm happy to use this to better train again

@upsidedownjim Thanks! Got mine preordered!

6 of 12. Not bad for someone who's never finished a game yet (I'm awful with that)

14/15. Most were familliar. Had to guess for Wave Racer and F-Zero. F-Zero was my only miss

Huh. I saw them at my local Toys R Us yesterday. I guess they didn't get the release date memo

I haven't played the game yet, but the screenshot of the toads with all of their faces hole-punched out seems all too fitting now...

Well, at least there's a bit more variety. I kinda stopped playing after a few months. Now if only Isabelle could actually tell me if an NPC (Kicks, Label, etc) is visiting my island...

The art is a bit uninspired. I most trading cards have better art than this (and if that becomes a thing, I'll be very excited)

I have this on Steam and I love the writing. Now if only I had friends to play it with...

Also, the game was made by Jesse Cox and includes many familiar Youtubers as voice actors :3

Calculester is best boi

I bought the Escapists 2 without realizing there was a bundle. I wish the eshop could just calculate the sale price like Steam does :S

I love Meta Knight's. The same with Samus and Dark Samus only even more obvious XD

Nothing to do with the physical edition, but I didn't know you could be carried in a box! I'm gonna have to re-download the game and experiment more...

I mean, we only learned about the Direct yesterday, and being a 'mini' would mean no 30 min presentation. Good to know I can get a Cadence of Hyrule bundle later this year, and that they FINALLY showed us SOMETHING from SMT V!!!

8/8. Almost half due to luck for Iggy, Larry, and Lemmy
