Geoff must unfortunately be sacrificed for the greater good... Among Us sus drip man in Death Stranding Solid: Impostor Edition & Knuckles. Also this was probably my favorite article I've read about E3. Silly predictions just make my day.
@Matl This is kind of what I am going through, so I totally understand. At the beginning of the pandemic I had a bunch of friends who I played Animal Crossing, Overcooked, Mariokart, etc. with. But then as time slowly passed, they kind of stopped. It is a bit depressing to think of games as "fads," but I guess that's what happens if you're not really into games. The vast majority of my friends who play games play more hardcore stuff as I've slowly reverted into a "casual" gamer since I can't really invest the time into it like I do on my actual work.
@nessisonett Just want to point out that 4'33'' was meant to explore ambiance and other sounds as music. It wasn't actually meant to be complete silence, but that is what it is generally thought of since there is no "proper music" from the performer(s).
@UmbreonsPapa In a similar way, you could argue that there is a plethora of TV to watch and that old TV might not matter. But like the infamous lost episodes of Doctor Who, which I am personally saddened to know that originals are gone, some people may want to play these games later. For example, if Mario Bros was all of a sudden somehow destroyed and lost (This is not very realistic considering how many times it has been rereleased etc), what about the fans of that? I see your point, there are lots of games to play. But a lot of things mean a lot of things to different people. Some people may enjoy games that other people really hate because of different reasons etc. and newer games just may not be able to replicate that experience for them.
I would love to play this game again! XC never really grabbed me; I tried to play it but it just didn't click. But this game.. Oh man. I got back into it after not having played it for about a year and everything came back. Maybe it's partly nostalgia, but something about the world just makes sense. Maybe I'm just more of a sci-fi fan, but I love getting lost in this world and the music for the overworld is amazing.
@jon_simmons One time I was printing a mass amount of vouchers in order to pay off the rest of my loan and the game crashed right before I finished so I had to do it all over again.
Truly the worst of people. It is a shame that the other part of the community, those who are playing to enjoy themselves or those playing competitively via legit means, have to put up with this.
I missed the Club Nintendo hey-days where they had amazing physical rewards and I was hoping I'd get those when this service launched, boy was I wrong. Please prove me wrong ;(

I think the arm has been infused with Sheikah Slate Abilities since that seems to be what was being shown in the trailer.
Re: Every Game From The Wholesome Direct Coming To Nintendo Switch
I have my eye on Woodo. Looks good! Maybe the wizard academy one... but I'll have to see how that pans out.

@Magician
The Fils-A-Mech was hands down one of the best things I saw. I remember running into it on Miiverse, I think.
Re: Long Beach Residents Could Win A Nintendo Switch When They Get Their Covid-19 Vaccine
I think that a Nintendo Switch is a bizarre incentive, especially because it is just the chance to win one.

Animal Crossing?
You could argue Minecraft
Edit: You could probably argue for any sandbox type game.

Re: Can You Name These Third-Party Nintendo Games From Just Their Box Art?
13/15, my idea of what the boxart looked like allowed me to eliminate a lot of the options knowing what system it was probably on

Re: Feature: The Best Nintendo Switch Music And Rhythm Games
I think Pianista is also well worth looking into. It also provides classical music, which I am not sure that a lot of rhythm games out there do!
Re: Angry Players Are Starting To Review-Bomb Animal Crossing: New Horizons
I'm a bit confused as to why we would need an open world animal crossing? It's not an action adventure game....
Re: Feature: Which Nintendo Switch Game Did We Miss?
Pianista: The Legendary Virtuoso
Sure it's technically a port of a mobile game, but at the same time it is different.

Re: Splatoon 2 Version 4.3.0 Arrives Tomorrow With Final Kensa Weapons And A Stage Renovation
Not much variety in the weapons in my opinion. Personally all of the sets feel more or less the same.
