Re: Review: Samba De Amigo: Party Central - Sega's Cult Classic Returns In Need Of A Shake-Up

As someone who has played both the DC & Wii Sambas a ton, my opinion is they did a great job on the Switch version aside from the song lineup.

I feel the controls work like they did on the Wii version in that it determines the position based on the orientation you hold controllers. I'm not sure they could have done much more without requiring a floormat like on DC.

I agree it feels odd holding the controllers in the way required, but after awhile it becomes natural.

I am so hyped for this! I loved this on PS1 and have most of the game memorized from replaying it. So glad they ported it to Switch & Steam as I no longer have my PS1 copy.

I can't wait to finally be able to play Rhapsody 2 and 3.

I was even attempting to buy Rhapsody 2 on PS3 a week before they announced these getting localized, but I had trouble accessing my Japanese PSN account. XD

Now can they update it to work fully with the SNES pad? I can play just fine, but the input combo to return to the home screen doesn't work on the GameBoy app. That and I can't connect a second controller while in the app.

I couldn't figure out how to quit without using the power button on the console, just like in the old days. XD

I love every Ace Attorney game, but this one would have to be my second favorite. (First goes to Great Ace Attorney.)

Definitely check it out, if you are interested in these style of games. I still think Capcom will eventually bring these to Switch, but it would be wise to snag this just in case they don't.

Also I am still hyped for Ghost Trick making it's way to Switch! Hopefully this will follow suit.

I have been playing the Japanese release of this for a bit and I have been enjoying it. Each event is short and range from easy to being quite exhausting.

They get pretty creative with mini game ideas. One I find hilarious involves you punching cars as they come towards you on a conveyor belt. Also some events have you grappling around like Spiderman and feel very satisfying when you time it right.

Also you level up as you play which will give you new outfits, titles and new exercise events to play.

I can't read Japanese so I get lost sometimes when setting up routines. Being able to read without having to run a quick translate will help me a lot! lol

Re: The 3DS And Wii U Are Losing Two More Features Next Month

SMW

I have had issues with the image share feature website for awhile. Only one that worked for me was Tumblr.

I know with the Wii U, at least, you can upload screenshots using the web browser to any compatible website. Flickr for example worked for me for awhile. I can't confirm if it still works at the moment as they changed their uploader since I last checked.

Basically any website which has a simple HTML file selection input box should work for uploading screenshots from Wii U (and possibly 3DS?).

Re: Poll: What's The Best James Bond Game?

SMW

My favorite are "From Russia With Love" and "Everything or Nothing" both on the GCN. Had some of my favorite driving missions and had fun gadgets.

Sean Connery returning for the role also made From Russia With Love extra special for me.

Re: Take A Look At La Pucelle: Ragnarok From 'Prinny Presents NIS Classics Volume 3'

SMW

Prinny Presents Vol 2 with Makai Kingdom & ZHP launching next Tuesday and then this in August. I love all the support NIS is giving the Switch!

The original Rhapsody is so rare now, it will be great to have it more accessible. (Thankfully this seems to be the PS version and not the DS version.) I can't wait to play that and La Pucelle again.

Re: NIS America Sale Discounts 34 Games On Nintendo Switch

SMW

Giraffe and Annika is a cute 3D platformer. Not perfect but pretty enjoyable and full of charm.

I picked up Kemono Heroes from this sale and I am enjoying it. It is only about 1-2 hours but it has a few characters with unique abilities to try out.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Price?

SMW

I am still on the fence about this. I am not a fan of how access to the DLC islands is tied to the subscription. If I just buy the DLC standalone, I won't have to think about staying renewed in order to use it. However I am interested in the launch lineup for the Genesis. We have no indication whether or not any future DLC will be included in this subscription and based on how slowly they have been adding SNES games, it might be awhile anyway.

I may just wait on the subscription and just buy the AC DLC.
