Man when I was a kid I remember thinking Skull Man looked so cool. I also remember not knowing what the heck Pharaoh Man was supposed to be (I didn't know what a pharaoh was back then lol).

Boo hoo. When I first heard about this story I thought maybe she was being harrassed at the job or something. But this? Not worth boycotting a whole game that hundreds of people worked really hard on. Not even close.

Final Fantasy X-2. It has some problems but I think it's great.

Eh, I have a hard time wrapping my head around Rayman. I mean just what the hell is he supposed to be? He kind of looks like a duck but not quite.

The Japanese one looks like amateur fanart. The western one looks a bit cheesy but at least it looks professional.

Western. I think keeping Zero a secret until he shows up in the game made it that much more epic when he appears.

This cannot be!

I'm the opposite: I would actually PREFER a remake or remaster, a "fresh" version of a game with new features and tweaks here and there, and think that simply having backward compatability is the lazier route.

People complain about the Switch, but we all know good and well if Nintendo released a 600 dollar handheld with a 2 hour battery, they'd be bashed to no end for it.

It just goes to show there's no such thing as a perfect handheld. If it has a good battery the horsepower will suffer. If it has more horsepower the battery will suffer (not to mention the price will be sky high). Pick your poison.

Kinda hard to believe, I mean Mario was the biggest thing on the planet back then.

All these handhelds are Switch clones.

@GrailUK Indeed, and it always kinda bugs me how people knock Nintendo and their censoring Mortal Kombat back then. It was a different time back then and no ultra violent video game had ever existed before. Also Nintendo was still widely regarded as a "for kids" back then, so of course their gonna censor it. I think people give the big N way too hard a time about that.

Are people actually complaining about nudity in an anime? If you have a problem with nudity in anime you're in the wrong hobby.

Am I the only one who didn't like this movie? The only good fight was Chun-Li vs. Vega. The Fatal Fury movie was way better.

@Slinkoy1 Not sure what you mean by that, but sorry for 2 mil I don't have time to play nice.

Geez I dunno... with $2 million on the line, I think I would have shot him, lol.

Wow I didn't know they made 10 of these. I always wanted to try this series but never got around to it. This is wonderful news.

@Gauchorino No I haven't, but I've heard nothing but great things about it. I also want to try Earthbound out of sheer curiosity, as people are always praising that game so much. I'll have to try both of those one of these days. I think Pokemon is the only RPG that predates FF7 that I was able to stick with to the end. It had a fun "hook" that kept you playing. Other than that though, I have a hard time with older JRPG, and really staying committed to them to the end.

I don't know anything about this series, but I tend to stay away from older JRPGs, as they're really hard for me to get into. I have a general rule: Any JRPG before FF7, I stay away from. I'm sure they were great at the time, but going back to those old fossils nowadays is really tough for me. FF7 really modernized the genre, making them more accessible for noobs like me. Anytime I try anything earlier, I end up giving up about an hour into it.

Those new tracks should just beat it.

Mega Man Warriors with all the robot masters and everything.

The main character looks rather...bubbly for a cyberpunk hero. Where's my sad brooding loner!

@HeeHo Yeah I agree. If you have to list doing something illegal as a major selling point for owning a system, then It doesn't seem like such a great system to me. If you're gonna boast the Steam Deck, boast it for its own merits.

@moodycat Yeah maybe, but there's something about playing Nintendo games on a Nintendo machine that adds sentimental value for a lot of people. It's like, why do some people go to the trouble of buying record players and expensive vinyl records when they can just download the same song instantly? Sometimes how you experience something is just as important as the experience itself.

Let's hope they never find out about Rock Lee...

I have no interest in this series. I want them to release it simply so the fans will finally shut the heck up about it.

Sonic CD on a cartridge... Mind = blown.

Do not take the name of Nintendo in vain.

I like that people are a lot slower to call Nintendo "doomed" these days. They know better now, hehe.

Here's hoping for an English dub but I'm not holding my breath.

I playing this currently. It's not a masterpiece or anything but it's pretty darn fun.

Being called "lazy" by a GAMER of all people is just...hilarious to me. We probably have the laziest hobby of all the hobbies, but we wanna call someone else lazy?

Pass. I remember playing a BloodRayne game back in the day and not liking it very much.

Heck people barely recognized the thing when it was new.

These days I don't play anything longer than 10 hours. That's when the game stops being fun to me, when it just becomes recycled gameplay over and over again.

People think longer games are worth $60 but really... Is doing the same actions over and over, just because it keeps you longer, really valuable time spent?

It almost looks like abstract art. Like a Picasso or something.

I feel like this thing is gonna do really well at first... then never get mentioned again.

Honestly, I liked the limitations we had to face as kids. You'd pour your whole soul into a single game, exploring and learning every nook and cranny, every magic spell, every weapon. Nowadays I can barely finish one game before I'm ready to move on to the next one. I'd be playing a game, and literally thinking in the back of my mind about what game I'm going to play next. And it's never-ending. Sometimes I just feeling like walking away from the whole hobby.

@GrailUK
I wholeheartedly agree with you. I feel these "spiritual successors" are just trying to cash in on another game's legacy. Is it okay to get INSPIRATION from another game? Sure. But a blatant knock-off? No thanks.
