@thesilverbrick I don't know if there was a misunderstanding, but I think I was trying to add on by saying that if Nintendo wanted to they could make many other controllers work. I thought you were trying to make it sound like the wii u pro controller could not work because it doesn't connect through a usb. I was trying to tell you that it uses bluetooth and that's it.
@thesilverbrick Wii U pro controller uses Bluetooth (so does the Wii remote) and if any random computer with the right drivers can connect to one so can the switch
So I found a Famicom Rob Amiibo for half off at Best Buy, it was labeled as clearance so maybe some older less popular Amiibo will see a price reduction in many other places.
@j-life The game itself is not in 480p, it appears to be running at 720p can't tell as we don't have a 1080p video, but on moving frames the game doesn't lose pixel count in places where it would have lost them in 480p leading me to believe that the game is likely in 720p. Also the graphics alone are meant to be in a retro style as Sonic Mania is essentially a remake of many of the retro sonic levels along with some new ones.
@FierceRagnar that's just the style that part of the series has taken on, but not all characters are like this (most are males) ex: Ogma, Arthur, Beruka, Eliwood, Gunther, Gwendolyn, and plenty more. Also if you don't like the style that's fine, the style they mostly use is popular so why not use it??
So many people complaining about the voice acting when that's not what this article is about. Also just play the game and don't get picky when it's not necessary because I have not seen a professional review where they complain about the voice acting.
@jenkje Xenoblade X has many issues mainly being a downgrade in terms of the story. The world is huge which is good and there's a ton to do, but I still feel like I have to complete or accomplish this task just so I can continue the story. Plus Skells come in pretty late.
@Moon I personally like ambiance which is what BOTW seems to use mainly but currently I do not own the game although I did enjoy the previous music sometimes listening to it too long gets annoying. For me, clock town gets old fast if you stay in the town for a bit
I think the "Switch Tax" might be a way for devs to swing certain consoles in their favor. I don't believe that sonic mania really needs a physical release anyways, but besides that most games I see end up being $50-$60 on consoles so I don't see it being necessary to charge ~$5 more
Tbh all versions look poorly optimized sure PS4 looks better but that game also has some frame drops as well especially when turning and I'm sure my screen wasn't tearing.
