Wow. Those are all rubbish. The second and last especially. The fourth has a wind-up key in his back. I always thought Geno's Bow on his hat was supposed to be a wind-up key.
Many of you know I'm a veteran of this site. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. I'm a middle-aged man now, and Geno came out when I was 11, my daughter's age now. I remember the display at the store by my house. I remember booting up a copy I borrowed from a friend who would later destroy my life. The super nintendo controller was light in my hands. Lighter than it's own cord. It was the first time Mario's world felt like a place. The composer of Geno's theme "beware the forest mushrooms" went on to write music for Kingdom Hearts and Xenoblade Chronicles. I moved on to other games, too. The Geno DLC came out after I had to sell the console he was on to make rent. I missed him that time around. I saw him in Superstar Saga, though. I'll only allow myself so much disapointment. This is what I'll say. Better than an assist trophy, and hopefully he's back again. Maybe in Mariokart.
Everyone is here. Including complainers. Not that I endorse complainers. Don't complain about what you can't control. I'm hoping for a Geno Mii Fighter. I'm also hoping that MALLOW hat is REAL. Because then you could guess who's coming next.
Characters moving very slowly, awkwardly except for two sword moves. I watched it muted, because I thought this was a nipon-ichi (?) game. Their music, you know? Where's this game's gameplay? End of line.
@TeslaChippie One hundred quid says I'm older than you. Besides, I don't think I'm at the true endgame yet. Also: Mario Oddesy.
Edit: Heck, I bet the song my pun image is from is older than you. Thanks for the reply to my post.
@thiswaynow Your point is valid: a work should be criticized for what is is, not what it is not. Only, you have singled me out and decided what kind of gamer I must be without knowing in order to insult me, when I was honest about my experience. Why would you want to be the person who makes people feel the way that's supposed to feel? My point is as valid as yours, because while a game should be criticized for what it is, this game's marketing claimed it has, which it has not. They made a TRAILER for two characters who are in a couple of CUTSCENES and are NPCs, which is a deceptive ad tactic. You could even say the other ad "It's time for you to learn what happenned 100 years ago" was deceptive, given the story. We all spent the same amount of money on the game, and I can tell you from Reddit, I have taken my time. You could "burn" through the main quest in like five hours, agreed, and I'm on hour 42. See: "I hate when youtube thumbnails have spoiled 'nth' past video games for me." Also, even God gets angry, so don't try to ride people for their emotional state, which prevents you from sharing your value with them.
What the heck? I'm like 40 hours in, and I assumed Robbie, Purah, Astor, and Sooga were obtainable in the post game. That's actually why I burned my day today playing! I don't have enough angry words I can type here, so I'll just say, I'm so angry, surprised, and disappointed!
This trailer... I did not like the music. I hope the game has better music than this. I would like to hear more orchestral tracks, frankly, like from the 25th anniversary, and it's a real shame that the anniversay music wasn't mixed to at least used in Smash.
More compelling story. Make cool story for ten characters, then let the player pick and choose who to play. Or make the story about a team. Colosseum was more compelling than Sword for crying out loud.
I saw a Yellow Beetle on a mineral deposit last week. They've always been in trees when I've seen them before. Never seen that before in 4 playthroughs, and two-3/4 playthroughs. Hundreds of hours.
...I didn't know about the squirrels.
@the_beaver I sold Pokemin the month I bought it. It felt rushed and I don't play online. Also, Pikmin 3 feels smaller than Pikmin 2. $40 would have been a fairer price, but nintendo's games are like Pixar movies. Price never drops on those around here.
It's cool to see companies surviving side by side also work together and acknowledge eachother. Good to see Bowser give credit like a boss. Pun intended.
How about the update makes it so that when you change a character's skin on the select screen, the picture of them DOESN'T VANISH FOR LIKE TWO ACTUAL SECONDS.
Looks awesome! Trowser is a cool choice. I wonder when PlayTonic will make good on creating a game starring its other characters. I'll be buying this game.
@w00dm4n I didn't know where in the world those skins came from. I was hoping for a Husk, personally. Maybe if these aligations against this Ryan guy stand, Sakurai will change another thing about Steve that offends people. Frankly, that'd be fine with me.
@Dracavius Honestly, it takes me out of my leasure when a game feels like it was crafted for a particular audience, and I'm not invited unless I can pay. But, like, that company doesn't get my internet money, obviously nintendo would get some change, no... Comcast gets my money, and I get to feed their ugly little monopoly. See, to me, comcast's flat rate is to high for a service that they're not still installing at the raw industrial level for 1.me 2.nintendo 3.MonsterDungeonTeam so what is comcast charging me for? Electrical signals? Then what am I paying the electric company for? ISPs want something for nothing in situations like this. Use of lan cables does not cause wear and tear... ergo, internet shouldn't cost so much. In the mean time, having an undiscussed HUGE paywall in games like Monster Dungeon... I can't enjoy myself as well. It's like an option on the menu that says "you're broke, remember, loser?" Or something like that. Thanks for asking Dracavius. May your moves in Smash always have top priority.
I was pretty impressed until "play onlin" popped up. It's like, if it's a free feature.... I shouldn't complain. I understand why they include that, but I don't like throwing away $60 a month on a yearly contract so I can play online with cheaters and gaers who play all day. The thrill of playing with friends and meeting new allys is big, but the desrtoyer-class tanks with rocket-launching micro-purchased skin-wearers is smothering. Online play hype is DOA. For me. Cheers if you love it, though.
Yeah. We noticed the cheapness in my house. If you stay in the minecart, you can hit like a boss. Try it on the F-Zero side scroller (big blue?). Fun tip: DO NOT GIVE STEVE TIME TO MINE.
Edit: Yuga's a dude? I looked it up. I never played LBW, but I played Hyrule Warriors Switch and played as this character. Thought he was a mean old lady. Nevermind Yuga being in this. I think the new character in this has lady vibes. ...I was wrong before, though. Anybody else think Yuga was an old lady?
@MarioLover92 I liked it more on Switch. I had the Wii U version and liked it a lot less (sold it not too long after purchase, didn't beat it until switch). I was pretty stoked by the Robbie/Pura trailer. I hope they're playable. Guess I'll find out in the morning. Hope you do, too. Thanks for the reply.
Climbed the cliff-trees by the canon in Delfino Plaza before I got the rocket nozzle with a spin jump, wall kick and hover nozzle. I also beat the pachinko machine first try (somebody buy me a lottery ticket). I jumped the gap in "Blooper Surfing Safari" but the game knew. If you run a legitimate lap, though, the clerk boots you (after insulting you). One of those dread levels that you think of and decide to not play a game.
14. Owned 3 for a couple months back on GBA. The Dire Dire Docks threw me off, b/c my brain remembered that one, and for a moment, I thought Jolly Roger Bay was only in Banjo Kazooie. I never really tried to beat Mario NES.
@masterLEON I was just going by what he said himself over a year ago on his blog. He said he wouldn't see more money after launch on it if someone bought the game or not.
