I think for any carbon roller fan, not having Seekers as the special will always be missed. I also loved the original rollers original Killer Wail. I remember on Hammerhead Bridge, for the rainmaker when teams made a final push at the end, you could splat all 4 because they were always so tight together. Good times. Literally the game that I've cared the most about in the past 7 years is Splatoon. I have the shirts, I have the bags, and I have the heartache from every rainmaker loss.
I do not mind a delay. Like others said, I have more than enough games to play as is. But also as others said, I do not see it as a delay since they never announced it anyways. I would hope that releasing it later would mean they could have more time to create an even better chip. They're probably locked in to what they have now, but just like snapdragon has a new chip each year, it would be great if waiting would allow an even stronger chip out of the gate. I'd also love to see an "upgrade" slot be available. Kind of like the N64 had the ability to use Ram Expansion Pack, it would be cool if this one had the ability to add more processor power down the line. Also, calling it now, launch Title is a re-release of Eternal Darkness!
I've always loved the North American one. So when this popped up this week I thought it would be an easy W. Then saw the European one of the first time. It is dang near PERFECT! I said, "Oh S__t!" out loud because I was surprised how great it is. Japan's is a cool concept, but unfortunately didn't age well for me.
I rented this game from Movie Gallery back when I was young. I did not realize at the time, that the person before me had already BEAT the game and most stuff was already gone. I could not figure out what to do (no instruction manual and I wasn't internet savvy back then). All these years later I see what I was missing out on. haha
I'm pretty excited to try the 1 player game. But I said that about the 1 player in Splatoon 2, and the expansion, and the one player in Season 3, and I've yet to play any of them. Also, I've bought Side Order. Soooo I guess I need to get to playing 2 again to catch up on the story!
@vio HAHAH She was the right one at first. I remember in the beginning she was into it. She even dressed as Marie for Comiccon in NY. But then, as time went on, she went from Staying Fresh, to being a total Octavio. haha
@LXP8 I have now missed the last two as well. I was in China and my hotel would not allow me to use a VPN so I went from perfect streak of playing each one (if only one match although I always tried to become "King") to now missing 3. Oh how the mighty have fallen. haha
@Picola-Wicola I agree. I have the OLED, but also have the Splatoon 3 OLED that I have never opened as well. My thought is that if the first one breaks, I can open the Splatoon 3 one and continue to play for at least another 5 to 10 years.
@mariomaster96 Yeah, I was thinking if they keep the Switch on the market for a year or two after the Super Nintendo Switch launches, but discount the OG to like $199, there would still be a market for 5 to 10 million more thus making it the number one selling one ever.
I remember being in K-Mart and playing their demo system. They didn't have a timer on it, so I could play as long as I like. I remember one of the older ladies that worked there politely telling me to calm down because I was playing the mario game and thought it was the coolest thing in the world that it was 3D! I've always been in to 3D. I have the 3DS and I loved my HTC Evo 3D phone. It's too bad the Evo 3D didn't have better marketing and wasn't on something besides Sprint. When my friends would see my phone, everyone thought it was so cool. Especially my photography. People that had never seen the phone called it a fad, but if you used one, you knew it was RAD!
@NinChocolate I know they're just rumors, but if they do the two skus for the Super Nintendo Switch, maybe one can be smaller like the light and it would be the one without the ability to use cards. And then the other could be the full fledged. The thing that stinks is apparently they're not using OLED screens according to the latest rumors, but I guess by the end of this year we will all know what the truth is. haha
For me, some games I just enjoy the experience and do not care about the ending so much. Like a Mario game I know he will save the princess. Other games, if I 100% love the gameplay, if someone spoils the ending I will still enjoy it because I like the game, but for others if I know the ending I stop playing. Like for "The Observer", I was REALLY looking forward to this game. I got it when it went on sale. I played it for a few hours and was like, "I think I know the ending already". I looked it up and I was right. That game didn't have enough to the story to make me care since I had already figured it out. Where as if the gameplay was better, and the writing had been better, I would have wanted to see how we got to the ending.
I think the only time I'd 100% not want to see the ending is if it spoils the story. Like if it had 2 players to chose from. And you play as one, but the other is with you the whole game. Then you find out at the end, it was the player you didn't chose who is the bad guy the entire time.
I still buy carts for all of the BIG games I want to play like Zelda, Mario, Splatoon, etc. I mostly download indie games and games that are on deep discount on the eshop that I would have never bought physical anyway. I think if it is done sporadically, it's a great idea. Splatoon carts should be in color. So should pokemon. But I do not need all games coming in colors.
@SpeedRunRocks Agreed, the only mental health game I've enjoyed is Eternal Darkness. I'm to the point now that I would pay $100 for a remake done right for that game. Top 3 games of all time.
I really like Mincemeat now. It is one of my favorite maps, but I only play it on Rainmaker, so maybe it is trash in other modes. In Rainmaker there are three ways to get it up to the top, which I think is more than enough.
Still looking forward to seeing the change though.
@Poodlestargenerica I liked N64 better than PS, but I always enjoyed Peak Performance on PS. And I liked the first Midnight Club on PS2. Then Sega had Sega Rally on Dreamcast and I also liked the 24 hours of Daytona (or whatever it was called) where you could actually race a 24 hour race. So I agree, a lot of the best racing games came out many years ago. But I see what people are saying, I do not need bleeding edge graphics, but would like something that looks better than what I can play on my phone, unless it is going for the pixelart style of Outrun.
How about the Switch UP! It would be able to play on the switch screen and the TV at the same time a la Wii U. But also the name UP comes from the screen flips UP to reveal a LARGER screen (like the Galaxy Fold, or Huawei Mate X, or Mi Fold, you get the point)
I've been wanting Super Nintendo Switch since they first started talking about it. But Nintendo Connect sounds cool GrailUK, but doesn't Xbox already own that?
@Pete_Stooge I actually think it is way more popular than the comments section here will show. It is easy to virtue signal anonymously on a website. It make the person who wrote it feel good, and like they are making a positive change in the world. However, most people with a dissenting opinion will not write, because they do not want to get bombarded with hate and being told they are wrong and being a jerk. It's easier for those people to just abstain from writing. It took me several hours to decide if I would post my post or not because I didn't want anyone at-ing me with negativity. But at the end of the day, I thought it was important for people to see dissent expressed in a non-attacking way.
I'm a big fan of the 80 - 20 Rule, aka Pareto Principle: The 80-20 rule, also known as the Pareto Principle, is a familiar saying that asserts that 80% of outcomes (or outputs) result from 20% of all causes (or inputs) for any given event. In business, a goal of the 80-20 rule is to identify inputs that are potentially the most productive and make them the priority.
So with Nintendo, this still fits the bill. 20% of their clients will spend the most money buying games. Before anyone comments, this is not an immutable fact, but it's just a business principle that a lot of companies go by. So Nintendo spends the majority of their efforts making games for the majority. Every layer of accessibility costs them money to implement, and will it bring any added benefit to them as a corporation? Because at the end of the day they are in the business of making money.
In an ideal world, it would be GREAT if every game had button mapping. It would be great if every single human could play every single game they wanted to play, but it is not an ideal world. It is a world where Nintendo has brought us a lot of the best games ever created. And what sets those games apart, is usually the controls.
If I as an artist want to paint my picture a certain way, I should be able to. I shouldn't have to change the colors because some people are color blind and won't appreciate it as much as the majority who have no problem. Consumer products are made for the majority.
In conclusion, it would be great if Nintendo could make every game accessible to every person, but if they do not, that's ok, there are still hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of games that do. So once can pick one of the other games and play that. I bought Tears of the Kingdom the day it came out. I still haven't opened it yet. My life is still pretty good. I want to play it, but if I never get the opportunity, I'll live.
We as a society can never truly make everything all inclusive to everyone, but we should always respect those that want to be included, but that doesn't mean we have to do what they want.
@Ryu_Niiyama EXACTLY what I was going to comment. I still see no problem with working hard and trying to make as much money as possible, but at the same time being responsible with your money. Not to go on a rant about the education system, but I feel that it doesn't teach financial literacy, or how to cook, or sew, or build anything with our hands. When I was in High School, we learned all of those things. I remember learning how to balance a checkbook in 5th grade, and learned how to play the stock market in 10th grade.
This article has actually made me want to find this game and play it.
So not comments yet so I can say FIRST!!! haha actually I'll give a review of this game.
First off, this is the first time I have ever played a game like this so I have nothing to compare it to. It is an interesting genre for me. I feel the dialogue is sometimes TOO much, and goes on for too long, but it was interesting to see how the game changes based on decisions I made. There are multiple endings. The bad ones are where you are rejected, the good ones you end up in a relationship, and there is a spicy bonus ending if you play your cards right. For nudity, it shows breasts but nothing below the belt. There are not a lot of photos in the game. I think it wouldn't have been too hard to add a few more to fit the situations better. Like different positions when out to eat, or when in the store. It would just match the dialogue better. At the end of the day, I would say I give this a 5 out of 10. If you have never played a game like this, and you want to try one out, I'm not mad that I bought this (it was on sale, well worth $1.49 or whatever I paid).
Agree with everyone that says there is nothing pervy about this. I went NA because the action looks intense. It shows Sylvia as an action person that is doing damage, and not just eye candy. I have no problem with her being eye candy. I do not see where we have gotten to a point in society that violence is fine, but finding someone attractive is bad. haha
@PharoneTheGnome Agreed! If they Released a "Super" Nintendo 3DS today, I would buy it day one. Much easier to carry around than my switch and I actually REALLY enjoy 3D gaming.
@Ogbert Quick Question: At what point do the puzzles start being broken? I've completed the 5x5s and almost done with the 8x8s. I am not sure if they fixed the issues, or if I just haven't gotten far enough into the game yet.
So I usually do these every year, and most of the games aren't great. But some of the games are fun little time wasters. Can I think of any of their names? Nope. But like there is a puzzle game that is great when you want to spend 20 minutes and not think, and just zone out and have something to do. For me it is usually on a flight when it's in that time period of meal time so that I do not have to worry about being too engaged with what I'm doing.
UPDATE: Downloaded todays game: Nonograms prophecy and it is simple to play and a fun time waster. This is something like a sudoku style game to me. Something I can look at for a few minutes if I have time, but no obligation to complete at once. I think it needs a better tutorial, but once I figured out what it is asking, well worth the price I paid... free.
@Dpullam Mine as well, just hated re-saving the bears every time I entered a level. I hope that is "fixed" this time around. I highly recommend this to everyone. Now if I only still had my Prima Strategy Guide for it! haha
Jet Force Gemini was my first choice. Then I saw you say that it is coming! Wow! I DO hope they fix one play mechanic. I didn't like that if you left an area, and then revisited it, you had to save all the bears again before you left. Once all are saved, that area should be "Clear". My next choice is Conker. I LOVED that game. Sad but true story, my parents cancelled and didn't come to my University graduation, so I didn't go either and just stayed in my apartment and played Conker all day. It was still a good day.
@Fizza Your love of Ghost Trick has my curious. I already have it saved on my wishlist. I'm downloading the demo and will try it this week. What do you love about it so much?
This one was VERY tough. They are both awesome covers, and both make me curious about what the game is about. I had to go with the Japan/US one in the end. I'm glad to see the poll so close which means I wasn't the only one trying to make a decision. I like the logo on the European one better. It's just the other cover really got my attention the second I saw it. I wanted to know what this was about.
@MooseTinsel I like the "Black Friday" thing. That's what I was doing to see if Target or any place did the buy 2 get 1 free. That's the only reason I hadn't bought it. But then yesterday my friend surprised me with it for my birthday so what a time to be alive!
Of course she would. Do you know how much bank she would make from that? This is a non-article. It's like saying, "Brian won the lottery today, but would SURELY love to win again sometime". There is no possible way this woman would say, "Oh, do the movie voice? Nahhhhh, I don't want to be in a movie and make a lot of money. I'd much rather stick to the scale for videogames".
The "Play with your background of choice!" made me laugh. The exclamation point like this would be one of the 3 most exciting things about the game is awesome.
Catan is one of my all time favorite board games. I like the ability to connect my phone so only I can see my cards. I play a lot of game on Board Game Arena. I think if i'm playing local, I'll just play the physical game instead of the video game, but still a cool feature.

@Ogbert Quick Question: At what point do the puzzles start being broken? I've completed the 5x5s and almost done with the 8x8s. I am not sure if they fixed the issues, or if I just haven't gotten far enough into the game yet.
Re: No Gravity Games Is Giving Away 12 Free Switch Games This Month (North America)
So I usually do these every year, and most of the games aren't great. But some of the games are fun little time wasters. Can I think of any of their names? Nope. But like there is a puzzle game that is great when you want to spend 20 minutes and not think, and just zone out and have something to do. For me it is usually on a flight when it's in that time period of meal time so that I do not have to worry about being too engaged with what I'm doing.
UPDATE: Downloaded todays game: Nonograms prophecy and it is simple to play and a fun time waster. This is something like a sudoku style game to me. Something I can look at for a few minutes if I have time, but no obligation to complete at once. I think it needs a better tutorial, but once I figured out what it is asking, well worth the price I paid... free.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Harvest Moon 64
The NA one is great. The only thing from making it a 10 out of 10 is the guy is frowning/determined. But the happy doggie makes up for it.

I hope that you can turn the commentary off. They sound like bad voice actors.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Batman: Vengeance (GBA)
As of 11:31am EST it is tied! This is my first tie I've ever witnessed. I went NA just because it showed the villains.

@LadyCharlie Can't argue with you when you're right. haha
Re: Switch Online Is Expanding The N64 Library With Rare's Jet Force Gemini
@Dpullam Mine as well, just hated re-saving the bears every time I entered a level. I hope that is "fixed" this time around. I highly recommend this to everyone. Now if I only still had my Prima Strategy Guide for it! haha
Re: Poll: Which Of Rare's Classic N64 Games Would You Like To See On Switch Online?
Jet Force Gemini was my first choice. Then I saw you say that it is coming! Wow! I DO hope they fix one play mechanic. I didn't like that if you left an area, and then revisited it, you had to save all the bears again before you left. Once all are saved, that area should be "Clear". My next choice is Conker. I LOVED that game. Sad but true story, my parents cancelled and didn't come to my University graduation, so I didn't go either and just stayed in my apartment and played Conker all day. It was still a good day.

@Fizza Your love of Ghost Trick has my curious. I already have it saved on my wishlist. I'm downloading the demo and will try it this week. What do you love about it so much?
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Contact
This one was VERY tough. They are both awesome covers, and both make me curious about what the game is about. I had to go with the Japan/US one in the end. I'm glad to see the poll so close which means I wasn't the only one trying to make a decision. I like the logo on the European one better. It's just the other cover really got my attention the second I saw it. I wanted to know what this was about.
Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Also Had A Strong Start In The US
@MooseTinsel I like the "Black Friday" thing. That's what I was doing to see if Target or any place did the buy 2 get 1 free. That's the only reason I hadn't bought it. But then yesterday my friend surprised me with it for my birthday so what a time to be alive!
Re: Zelda's Voice Actor Would "Love" To Reprise Her Role In The Live-Action Movie
Of course she would. Do you know how much bank she would make from that? This is a non-article. It's like saying, "Brian won the lottery today, but would SURELY love to win again sometime". There is no possible way this woman would say, "Oh, do the movie voice? Nahhhhh, I don't want to be in a movie and make a lot of money. I'd much rather stick to the scale for videogames".
Re: Super Double Dragon
The "Play with your background of choice!" made me laugh. The exclamation point like this would be one of the 3 most exciting things about the game is awesome.
Re: CATAN - Console Edition
Catan is one of my all time favorite board games. I like the ability to connect my phone so only I can see my cards. I play a lot of game on Board Game Arena. I think if i'm playing local, I'll just play the physical game instead of the video game, but still a cool feature.
