@deecas I used to love Nights on the Sega Saturn. My brother and I were locked into a neverending score battle. Do you have the 3d controller? That thing was awesome.
@Zulzar I like that I don't get lost as much in modern games. I don't find it rewarding, I find it frustrating. Getting lost is an enjoyable aspect of some genres of games. I don't want it in my shooters. I want to shoot.
Me: "My back hasn't hurt this much in years" My wife: "Maybe because you've been hunched in front of the TV for five days" Me: "Let's do a sixth to test your theory"
@CharlieGirl Damn, I'm paying five dollars more but I'm using my puny Australian dollars. $70 US is 100AUD which I certainly wouldnt pay. For you, surely there are deals to be found?
@marsbitrona That 12 month period that contained Mario 64 to Goldeneye was unbeatable. After demoing the crap out of Mario 64 at my video, my house mate and I lived on two minute noodles for a few weeks to but an N64.
@Strictlystyles I remember getting a US account for my vita, to get cheaper games than Australia. I guess that's not the case anymore. I just pre-ordered it for $75 which is around 50 USD.
@Grandiajet I've found peace in "I've paid for this game, it sucks, that money is lost, i dont need to play it" mentality. I totally relate to the sheer bloody-mindedness of forcing myself to play a game I bought. As I ease into middle age, bloody-mindedness is bad for my blood pressure.
I still want to get it, despite having it on xbox. I've never played Persona on a TV before, just three of them on the vita. Handheld just feels "right".
What are the actual odds of a joycon drifting? I've got an og switch l, and a lite. I've never had a problem, and I've played around 1000 hours on each one.
Whilst I am going to play it on my xbox, the Switch feels right. Maybe because all my previous Persona experience has been on PsP, and Vita. P3 and P4 golden are both beloved highlights of the previous decades gaming.

Re: Review: Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Bold, Bleak, And Bewildering Boomer Ballistics
So it's an "Okay Booomer?"
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom New Item Duplication Glitches Discovered In Version 1.1.2
@Gumdrop Yeah, it seems like a similar mentality to the "how dare play your game on easy mode" crowd.

Re: Random: Fan's Minor-Key Nintendo Covers Put A Strange Twist On Classic Gaming Themes
Going the other way, Imperial Death March in a major key is just weird.
Re: LEGO 2K Drive Outlines Year One Seasons And 'Premium Drive Pass' Rewards
Ha ha ha ha hah! Hahahaha! Ha! Ha! Ha.....Nope.
Re: Video: 7 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In May 2023
Lego 2K can bugger right off. It sounds like its more monetised than a free to play game. I hope I'm wrong. I like arcade racers.
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Free 'Adventure Hip Pack' Up For Grabs At Target (US)
@WallyWest What do they cost separately in your eshop?
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Free 'Adventure Hip Pack' Up For Grabs At Target (US)

Re: LEGO 2K Drive's Physical Switch Release Is Just A Download Code
Full price game with micro transactions is just a code in a box. Nope.
Re: Shovel Knight Dig 'Fate And Fortune' Free DLC Update Announced
@MeloMan It's 85% off on 3ds. You won't get the dig content, but the 3d effect is bloody gorgeous.

96/97 The N64 years.
Re: Pokémon Games Continue To Dominate 3DS Charts Ahead Of eShop Shut Down
@KeeperBvK I religiously check sales trackers everyday, hoping for some of that 90% off goodness from capcom. So far
Re: Pokémon Games Continue To Dominate 3DS Charts Ahead Of eShop Shut Down
I feel I should be embarrassed, like people who don't like dogs, because I've tried a few, and ive never liked a Pokemon game.

Did Microsoft not publish anything this year? They came first last year.

Re: Where To Pre-Order The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom On Switch
@Moose_4 That's on par with Australia's cheapest price. £60 is crazy. That's AUD 104. USD 70 is around the same.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden?
P3, and P5, both suffer, in my mind, because they aren't P4. I just love every aspect of the darn game, so much.

Re: Nintendo Isn't Happy About Switch Game Images On Steam
Nintendo are like George Lucas. Billions in the bank, a legacy firmly etched into modern culture, yet still a grumpy old pr*ck.

Re: Random: Rockstar Reportedly Turned Down A GTA Movie Starring Eminem
"..big enough to have its iconic trilogy ported to Switch" by a bunch of one armed chimps, yet still go on to sell really well.
Re: Random: Rockstar Reportedly Turned Down A GTA Movie Starring Eminem
@Ventilator Oh yeah, i forgot about that one. GTA3 on the other hand was a seminal game that I've never forgotten. Who needs a movie.

Re: Video: The Future Of Gaming Is Joy-Con Drift-Free
@SonOfDracula Maybe 1000hrs is a stretch on my OG switch, but on my lite it's probably more. The lite is the goat handheld.

Re: Video: Persona 5 Royal Side-By-Side Graphics Comparison (Switch & PS4)
