Re: Nintendo Shares Gorgeous Concept Art For Kirby Star Allies On Switch

Platinumhobo

I was very pleased with Star Allies. Artstyle included. It was Kirby doing Kirby, that's all I wanted. The allies system was the twist this time around and I enjoyed that. While I think the 3ds games were better, I don't have much negative to say about Star Allies.

I never expect Kirby games to be hard, outside of maybe the True Arena sort of things.
Gorgeous visuals.
Plenty of fanservice for an anniversary game.
Fun to play with friends.
The dlc characters are really cool and have made my most played mode Guest Allies to see all the little things they do for the returning characters/bosses.

Re: Soapbox: Nintendo's Excuses Regarding Cloud Saves Aren't Good Enough

@NEStalgia I think you hit the nail on the head sir. Thanks for that.

I don't have Splatoon 2 anymore and I don't intend to play the Let's Go games so NSO is fine in my opinion. Does what I want it to for the asking price. I do hold some contempt against Splatoon though for being the harbinger of this issue tho. Hopefully they do fix it at some point, quietly or on full blast.

Re: Review: Assault Gunners HD Edition (Switch eShop)

The Char and Amuro shoutouts sung to my heart a bit. Good on ya.

I've played one mission of this game and I can already agree with ever bit of critisism. However, I bought this as a little something to play while I wait for Octopath, give myself a break from BotW, and scratch my mecha itch. It's fun enough and I regret nothing.

Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Is Unveiled For Switch, Every Previous Character Returns

Ok, Smash broadcast went on for quite a bit. But, they also already told us that. And, assuming you're not someone is just biased against Smash for one reason or another, this was amazing. People always complain about cut characters and stages, wanting to see their old favourites to come back. Sakurai delivered! Could've very well stopped with just giving us Melee + Brawl + 4, but then still decided to change up practically all of the existing fighters and allude to some new ones. Clearly he's listening to what fans want because Ridley would have never been in otherwise. Unless it's a complaint about game modes, which I can support cuz we know nothing on that front, all the other whining sound ungrateful.
As far as the direct goes, I love that we finally got to see the new FE and a new Mario Party. Daemon x Machina had my heart racing, as a long time mech fan. Only thing I wish is that FE and DxM weren't so far away but we've got third parties to hold us over.
