Was a great game that went totally unappreciated by most. Had on the Wii U and oh man that end...was a 15/10 just kept getting better. Definitely would go in for another dip on it.
1. it's free, so microtransactions are where the money comes from. Super Mario Run pay once for a complete game failed on the market compared to Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem. 2. They give out leaf tickets like candy. I have about 1500 and that is easily with spending about 500 on random things. All of those left tickets were free from log in bonuses, to doing requests, etc. 3. Don't buy them if you don't want to. Not like there are already hundreds of things you can make and decorate all free without spending a single dime.
Had this on Wii U. Was definitely a fun game with great levels and could get very challenging at points. For me personally I'm going to skip it on Switch but I definitely recommend to anyone that hasn't played it yet.
@Sakura7 you're disappointed that they reported the facts because those facts might cause people to be rightfully concerned where their money was going if they buy this product? Why even report anything if it might cause discussion or inform consumers?
I, for one, very much liked the link and appreciate this little snippet of info that took me all of 20 seconds to read and 2.49 minutes to watch the video. Black Panther was awesome so this just adds to the awesomeness. I've never seen Coogler in interviews but from this small clip he seems very down to earth and big plus is he's into cool games and books. I also need to get into Altered Carbon.
Definitely an amazing game that speaks to the degradation of America's rust belt towns. The hopelessness in the job market, low wages, stagnant economy, the terrible healthcare insurance set up in America, Depression and anexity, generational differences, perceptions,and expectations, etc. even throw in some supernatural stuff (that plays into all of the above) and it really is a great story. While some might not be able to connect with the characters, I personally felt this really represents a good chunk of life that is actually going on right now so for me it was easy to identify with multiple characters even when they were doing things I didn’t agree with. I had several literal laugh out loud moments and basically had a grin on the whole time playing. Mae’s drawing are some of the funniest things in the game. And the soundtrack is truly amazing. Already played on the PC but enjoying another run through on the Switch right now.
I was really looking forward to this game but the poor performance with the mediocre scores meant I went to other games. If they get it running and if maybe a sale comes around I will get it but with Night in the Woods just around the corner Dead Cells later in the year and endless play on Splatoon 2 and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 it’s going to be a tough sell for me.
Buying purely to play portably but all the details that have come out screams that this is a bare bones remaster, no new assets no fixes to areas (bed of chaos anyone) and no gameplay fixes (maybe they can fix some of the covenants). Just up rezing textures, 6 player online and 60 FPS for all versions except the switch and hopefully they didn’t assign things to the frame rate like durability like in dark souls 2 pc version.
I don't know if he's talking about getting approved to be on the eShop, which would be really weird since they have a ton of indies, good and bad, coming through each week or if he's talking about being a part of their Nindies program/featured on a direct etc.
For all we know they could have filled out a form wrong which caused they to be denied. Anyways I've heard from several people that VA-11 HALL-A is an awesome game so I hope it gets on the Switch. But he's not helping himself by bad mouthing Nintendo, there must be a better way to air his grievances.
Really had fun with this. I put ARMS down mainly since the currency was gained so slow. With the boosts and badges I easily tripled the total I had gotten in 20 hours of gameplay within 2 hours. Definitely a good sign. I think if they had a more robust single player campaign as well as a couple more modes in the party mode would be just what the game needs, though I don't know if they'll hold that for a sequel and just keep adding fighters.
Preordered and preloaded this and LA Noire. Never got Doom on the PC so this worked out and had LA Noire but got buried among other games so again works out. Hope the both do well and we get more support from both companies.
I'm so pumped! Watched the Super Best Friend's playthrough of it and fell in love. Have it on PC but the Switch is the perfect match. Definitely will double dip. I bet they're going to be a Nindie and be apart of a direct for the Holiday season. That's my guess why they can't talk about it yet.
While I wasn't a big fan of the combat (way too easy) and didn't like that befriending Yokai is never a for sure thing which can lead to a lot of grinding, I did love the story and setting and the anime is great. I'll definitely be picking up this one.
I love this. While I'm a huge fan of JRPGs there is an interesting aspect about the budget to be profitable in Japan only which can turn off Western tastes and the downward spiral this has caused. I do see Xenoblade Chronicles X more as a JRPG but it does have several aspects of Western RPGs. It's a great mix of the two and I think a perfect example of how to organically create something unique rather than stick to tried and true formula of JRPGs. Further I have sunk about 70 hours into Xenoblade Chronicles X now, more than I did for Fallout 4 and coming up close to The Witcher 3--which both have taken a back seat to this game. I just got my Flight module and don't see me stopping anytime soon. I truly hope this game sells well and Nintendo continue to invest in this unique series. This was a big reason why I bought a Wii U when it launched.
I backed this game and definitely getting it on PC but if they make an NX version I'll for sure be getting it since I want to support Lab Zero and Nintendo indies.
While I love Binding of Isaac on PC and played around 50 hours on it, but I didn't bother buying on the Wii U or 3DS since Nicalis are really bad developers when it comes to Nintendo architecture. I have rebought several indie games on my Wii U that I already had on PC just to support the eShop but Nicalis are so demeaning to Nintendo users/fans. Hopefully with NX it is closer in architecture to modern PCs so ports can be easier, cheaper, and faster to the platform. Honestly I would have loved to play this on my 3DS.
I'm excited for this! The art style plus Monster Hunter depth add on to RPG mechanics, I'm so down. Since I can't play Fantasy Life 2 hopefully this will fill the void left in my heart.
I've been absolutely addicted to Fantasy Life on my 3DS but I honestly have never put more than 3 hours into a mobile game no matter how much I liked it much less 60+ hours.
Still one of my favorite Wii U games ever. I'm just barely beating the base content and moving onto the Twili Map and Master Quest Map. Had so much to do to begin with but the DLC added so much content and for a great value.
Ubisoft did say they had another game if the Wii U sold before. This could be it. I would love it, while I wasn't a huge fan of the original I did think if they just refined it in a sequel they would have a truly amazing horror survival game. Also Amazon France has outed a lot of games and bundles that later did come out so this is looking promising.
I love Robin Williams, not only as an actor but as a person. He's a San Francisco icon (where I'm from) and one day he came to my high school cause he was friends with one of the teachers and got to meet and talk to him. Not only that but we also share the same birthday so that was cool. We'll always have his amazing body of work and all the people he had an effect on throughout the world.
This is an amazing game with astounding atmosphere. When I started it on PC all I could think was this would be great on the Wii U. Someone needs to get Rogue Legacy on the 3DS now.
I absolutely loved the Direct and the live Treehouse has been incredible. Had it on for 4 hours or so today and a couple yesterday. Got to see Yoshi, Smash, Kirby, Zelda, SPLATOON!, and all the great indie titles--Affordable Space Adventures looked ultra fun and I had no idea what it was till the Treehouse event. I think they nailed it on the head this year by learning from last year's E3. The Direct + Live Treehouse is a winning combo.
I went to the one last year in Culver City California and it was really fun but they definitely under estimated how many people would actually show up. There was a line snaking from the display around the store then out the entrance and around the corner of the store and more showing up throughout the day. All playing on ONE Wii U. Hopefully they have at least 2 this year to speed it up a bit. I went about an hour ahead of the opening time and I ended up around the corner of the store. Took about 4 hours to finally play but it was fun nonetheless.
