Re: Switch 2 Sales In The US Are Outpacing The Original Console By 75%

Retrodouche

So you're telling me that Switch 2, a successor to one of the best selling consoles of all time, is selling better in the first few months than Switch 1, a console that had distribution/supply issues and was a successor to one of the worst selling consoles of all time.

Who would have knew?!

After a year or two we can see if switch 2 lives up to the switch 1 legacy. But before that Nintendo needs to make some GAMES, bring out the big guns, firepower!

All I need personally is Prime 4 but they need something else for the rest of the year besides that and the next pokemon.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Super Mario Bros. Wonder?

Retrodouche

Played it through with a friend. It's your average mario game. Bread and butter. Can't remember any of the soundtrack and not many levels stood out of the rest. A lot of gimmicks and stylistic choices have been done on other games before. The game was laughably easy. Only few stages in the special world gave some challenge and most of them were super short. Nothing special but pretty good for killing time.

Re: Best Of 2022: Which Is The Absolute Best Nintendo Console Generation?

Retrodouche

This is going to be a long one...
Here's a list of games I still revisit. Some more often than others

Nes
Adventure's of lolo 1-3
Batman
Blaster master
Castlevania 1-3
Contra 1-2
Ducktales 1-2
Dragon Quest 1-5 ( usually the updated ds, snes or game boy color versions though)
Double dragon 1-3
Final fantasy 1-3 ( usually the updated ds, ps1, psp versions though)
Mega Man 1-6
Metroid
Ninja gaiden 1-3
Super mario bros 1-3
Zelda 1-2

Game boy
Donkey Kong
Zelda 4 Link's awekening ( not so much after the switch remake)
Super Mario Land 1-3

Snes
Actraiser 1
Donkey kong country 1-3
Chrono trigger
Contra 3
Earthbound
Final fantasy 4-6
Fire emblem 4-5
Hagane
Lost vikings 1-2
Lufia 2
Mega man 7 & x 1-3
Parodius
Pocky & rocky 1-2
R-type 3

Super Castlevania & dracula x
Super mario world1-2, allstars, rpg
Super metroid
Super smash tv
Turtles in time
Wild guns
Zelda 3
Zombies ate my neighbours

N64
Ogre battle 64
Paper mario

The n64/ps 1 generation has aged like milk. Even revolutionary games like mario 64 and the two zelda games have not stood the test of time that well in my opinion. I'd rather play the 3ds zelda remakes or any other 3d mario.

Game boy color
Wario land 2-3
The Zelda oracle games

Gamecube
Baten kaitos eternal wings
Fire emblem path of radiance
Luigi's mansion
Metroid prime 1-2
Paper mario ttyd
Resident evil 4
Super mario sunshine
Super monkey ball
Tales of symphonia
Zelda wind waker & twilight princess

Game boy advance
Castlevania aria of sorrow (sometimes the other two too)
Fire emblem 6-8
Mario & luigi superstar saga
Metroid zero missio & fusion
Wario land 4
Zelda minish cap

Wii
Donkey kong country returns
Fire emblem radiant dawn
Metroid prime 3
Super mario galaxy 1-2, & new smb
Wario land shake it

Ds
The three Castlevania games
Dragon quest 4-6
New super mario bros

Wii u
Donkey kong country tropical freeze
Mario kart 8 ( the switch version though but it's a port with dlc)
Super mario 3d world & new smb wii u
Zelda breath of the wild ( the switch version though but it's a port )

3ds
Bravely default & second
Dragon quest 7-8
Fire emblem 13-15
Luigi's mansion 2
Metroid samus returns
Super mario land 3d & new smb2
Zelda a link between worlds, oot & mm remakes

Switch
Cuphead
Luigi's mansion 3
Mario kart8
The Messenger
Metroid dread
Super mario maker 2
Zelda breath of the wild & links awekening

Strangely enough I'm one of the few people that isn't that impressed with the switch. Malfunctioning and uncomfortable controllers ( I know the pro controller exists but do you remember the times when the consoles came with the best cotrollers ever?((snes & gamecube)), heath cracks and laughable online/ virtual console.

I think snes era wins and gamecube/ gba is a close second. Wii u/ 3ds isn't that far behind either.

Re: Poll: What's The Worst Legend Of Zelda Game?

Retrodouche

Worst zelda games ranked
1. Triforce heroes
2.the four swords games
3. The Ds games with awful stylus controls

I can see some people voting for skyward sword for its motion controls and zelda 2 for its difficulty. I advise you to see a doctor if you picked anything else than the games I listed.

Re: Poll: So, What Was Nintendo's Best Year Ever?

Retrodouche

Breath of the wild was a great time but I have to go with 1995. I find myself revisiting Chrono trigger, Donkey kong country 2, earthbound and yoshi's island again and again. 95 also had mega man x2, mega man 7, breath of fire 2, castlevania x , Hagane and many other classics. 91 pretty good too
