That's sad, but expected. The gamecube game was awesome. Of course, some of the gameplay wasn't spectacular, but overall great game. It was kinda like playing a Toy Story movie where a robot bridge the gap between the family and the toys and helped out the family. I still have my gamecube copy.
This looks interesting. I would prefer turn base combat though. Square Enix pulls out some interesting sim games periodically. Fingers crossed they do a sequel to Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King someday.
@Aozz101x I agree, those games while similar to AC had a lot of their own charm. I would have loved to seen a Magician's Quest on the switch. I look forward to seeing more about this game.
Obviously, I would love to get this in English. I might get the japanese version, even though I don't know enough japanese. Except for the one tiny bit in each game that drove me crazy trying to figure it out, I really enjoyed them. They had such a kids' black comedy about them.
@tekoii Have you checked out a let's play of it, if there is one. The first one in America was the best. Chibi-Robo was an adorable and fun game. I'll have to check this out.
@somnambulance Pretty good idea, though you probably will have to help him through the reading portions some. My niece loved Gabrielle's Ghostly Groove and was probably the only (around) kindergarten kid who could read words like werewolf and zombie. I would read a lot 2/3rd of it and she would read for certain characters.
@Gravitron You really missed the glory days of kids toys at Mcdonalds. I remember the range of transforming Mcdonalds food into robots. I personally also enjoyed the Mcnuggets that were kinda like Mr. Potato head for Halloween. I am still mad my Mom tossed them out.
@Kochambra Wait, they did Ghost Trick? That was a great game and I would love a another game with that gameplay. I voted for Okami, because it wasn't listed.
I love how they complained about diversity in a game made by primarily Japanese people. That's just how the Japanese tend to portray people in their games and anime. It's also not surprising that a culture that's pretty homogeneous wouldn't have a very diverse character range. Lately they have worked harder in being more diverse, too.
@Chlocean I was surprised no one else mentioned the Sonic similarity. It's not the exactly the same, but I thought Sonic immediately. We could always use more good games.
I am just glad the Chinese government wasn't involved. Hopefully this means more jrpgs from Square Enix. A paper mario style Tomb Raider would be interesting though.
@RubyCarbuncle. I think a lot of people feel that way about where they live if it's not famous for something. I live near Orlando and it is a great place to visit but it is a really mess of cars and roads. I wouldn't want to actually live there.
I am looking forward to when they built the new park in Orlando with the Nintendo park.
I really loved the one about Miyamoto and Chris-san being so scared of the movie they deleted it. The idea became even more funny when I thought of how Chris Pratt as Mario is what really scared them.
@Expa0 If your not that big of a Radiant Historia fan, I don't know how much you will enjoy the remake. They did add quite a bit, including side stories from new alternate histories and a sort of tower - clear each room challenge with prizes.
I would much rather have the dancing P4 game than the fighting one. Of course, I would like having P4 way more. If the pc can get it why can't the switch?
Arceus' new way of doing things were fresh and fun, but I prefer the old way better. I am sure there will be more games with Arceus' battle system, but I prefer not every pokemon game being like it. Variety is better.
@speedyb Yeah, that comment really made no sense to me. I think Nintendo and Sony are equal in this way.
I do think they should have extended it a bit longer considering people are still buying the 3ds. Technically, anything non physical is a rental. These comments are really overboard.
@Ryu_Niiyama This is what I was thinking when they originally posted about the game. Of course, I was also interested because of how much it reminded me of Legend of Mana. I enjoyed that game, except for how easy it was to miss story lines.
It's weird. I live in Florida, but I haven't seen many of these weird instances. I have heard of a couple though. It's always funny when nobody gets hurt in a crime and you find out they were trying to rob a bank with a hammer.
@Benji80 I am more into rpgs myself. I don't tend to post much unless I feel like I am saying something new or there aren't many comments already posted.
@Benji80
I agree with you. Cops have the worst job, especially nowadays. That's also without considering they can be murdered at anytime.
Thank goodness these cops are off the job, but the recordings of their playing was hilarious. At least the cops they should have been helping didn't die.
I would love to play P3 portable on the switch, but it would be better if they could combined the P3 fes and portable versions into one awesome version of the game. Any main persona game would be better then just the spin offs. Also, no cloud versions.
@NIN10DOXD I know. I have never gone to see an animated movie because so and so was doing the voice acting. Most of the time I can't even tell it's them.
I was sad not to see the Pelicans either. They could have made them special guests. I was a little sad that they didn't add my most wanted addition: more conversations and personality to the villagers. At least with the Roost they might be more conversations.
@SwitchForce
Actually the wording in the article really confused me. So I went to the lego website and the designs did get enough votes for the review. The designs just did not make it pass that level. Probably because of legal issues.

Both of those would be my wild card hope. Of course, also Ghost Trick any Touch Detective.

Re: Wylde Flowers Is A Cosy Gardening Game Where Your Grandma Wants You To Join Her Wizard Cult
I am slightly disappointed. I thought there would be a little more cult to it, considering the article's title. It does look like an interesting game.
Re: 'Eternal Threads' Asks You To Manipulate Time To Save Lives On Switch Later This Year
Interesting idea, but I would have to see more of the actual gameplay and rating to really decide on buying it
Re: Anime And Manga Series 'Made In Abyss' Is Coming To Nintendo Switch This Fall
Nope, too dark and depressing for me. Good news for others though.
Re: Save On Sonic, Persona And More In The Sega / Atlus Switch & 3DS eShop Spring Sale (North America)

Re: LEGO Bricktales Invites You To Unlock Your Creativity This Year
This reminds me a bit of MySims Kingdom, but with legos.
You traveled around to different islands helping out the inhabitants by building different things.
Re: EA Play Live Is Reportedly Skipping 2022
I totally misunderstood this from the title. I thought it said EA skipping this year. That made me rather confused.
Re: PSA: You Might Have To Clear Up Some Space To Play Persona 4 Arena Ultimax On Switch
I would much rather have the dancing P4 game than the fighting one. Of course, I would like having P4 way more. If the pc can get it why can't the switch?
Re: Some Trainers Are Worried About Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Returning To "Traditional" Catching Mechanics
Arceus' new way of doing things were fresh and fun, but I prefer the old way better. I am sure there will be more games with Arceus' battle system, but I prefer not every pokemon game being like it. Variety is better.
Re: Best Pokémon Gift Ideas - Games, Toys, Clothing, Accessories And More

Some of his little words of wisdom. I did not watch the whole video, but he is amazing.
Re: Out Now: Monark Gets A Dramatic New Trailer To Celebrate Its Launch
I might pick this up eventually. There are so many good games and so little time. I mostly just want to support the company.

Re: Random: Bioshock Infinite's Frolicking "Baguette Boy" Has A Story To Tell
This is a bit of weird story for Nintendo life. I can't remember if Bioshock made it on a Nintendo console. I do love the Baguette boy though.
Re: PLAYISM Confirms Another Two Intriguing Titles For Switch
The first game has a neat art style. The second game looks more interesting to me, but it seems devoid of other characters.
Re: The Pokémon Company Sets Its Sights On YouTube Videos Of The Fan-Made 'Pokémon FPS'
It's too bad it was taken down. The video of him making the game was rather funny. I did not enjoy the part where he was shooting the pokemon though.
Re: EGGLIA Rebirth, A Fantasy RPG From The Artists Behind Secret Of Mana, Comes To Switch Next Month
I was interested until I saw the name Brownies as the developer. They have made some interesting games. I am now very interested.
They also worked on Fantasy Life, though in a more minor capacity I believe.
Re: Random: This Fan-Made Pokémon FPS Finally Lets You 'Shoot 'Em All'
This video was hilarious, but the game was too dark for me. Great job though.

Personally, I prefer the GBA style, but these are really cool.
Re: Random: Remember Those AI-Generated Pokémon? Now You Can Catch One Of Your Own
I tried it twice and I choose super cute both times. One of them should be killed by fire and the other looked rather perverted.

I don't like this Pope (or most Popes) because of his work covering up the crimes of any Priests.
This was a funny story though.
Re: Random: Mario And Bowser Are Being Used To Promote The PS5 In China
The real question I want to know: how many games are they up to on the switch in China (legally) now? 10? This is funny though.

Re: Rumour: Persona 3 Portable Is Supposedly Getting A "Multiplatform" Remaster
I would love to play P3 portable on the switch, but it would be better if they could combined the P3 fes and portable versions into one awesome version of the game. Any main persona game would be better then just the spin offs. Also, no cloud versions.

I do feel inspired to make my own Animal Crossing, since it seems the easiest.
