@BananaMetallurgica FF has imo the best music of any game series and I'm a huge Zelda fan as well. Even if you don't like the main games I think you might love this game. Download the demo and see for yourself.
@BenAV I'm with you as I also put a ton of hours into both 3ds versions. I can say it was awkward at first using the buttons but it works surprisingly well. Plus you're not going to destroy the touch screen like before.
I'm surprised EU is losing so bad at this early time. Looks better to me but not by a whole lot over NA. Both covers look good but let's not talk about the 3rd option.
I'm going to still say no for us. I have to pay $80 because of the family plan and it's not worth it to me. I want to play some of those games on just my account but Nintendo won't let me just buy it for my account.
One of my must haves to finally get me to Subscribe. I'm waiting on one more but the chances aren't great for Blast Corps to come. Still if it does I will sub the day it comes.
I usually pick these games up when they go under $10. Got 2k19 for $3 and 20 for $5. I skipped 21 but I might have to get 22 even though I'm a Pistons fan. I'm not so blind to know that MJ is still the greatest player in NBA history.
As iconic as the NA/EU cover is there's just something about the Japanese cover that's more appealing. It almost feels like a Mech related cover and I'm guessing that's what they were going for.
Now all I want is a game made for this intro!! Deep Space Nine is my favorite Trek show and this opening is by far my favorite as well! This orchestra music just sends chills down my spine.
Just started it last night and felt that first urgent (by myself) was over way too fast. I did faint once pretty early on as it grabbed me and chucked me in the air then pounched. My GS also feels better to use in this version.
@OorWullie Yes and no really. When Splatoon first released there wasn't much to play. When the second released I quickly fell off because there became too much to play. I want to play the 3rd for sure but don't want it to take all my gaming time up. I also work a lot now and back then not nearly as much.
What's there to be confused about? It's a 3d Sonic game. Wait to experience the game for yourself before jumping on the bandwagon and criticizing what's been shown. From what I've seen it might be the first 3d Sonic game I actually play. Looks good to me so far. Now the question will be how well will the Switch version play. That might be Saga's beat selling version so they better not screw it up.
I guess they're used to copying what already exists out there. That character looks like a blatant ripoff of Hollow Knight. It does look quite good though
@citizenerased While the demos aren't the best Rise is by far the easiest and most streamlined of all the MH games to get into and start. Got my then 8 year old into the series with Rise and he had zero problems picking up the game. The game in fact is so streamlined that vets complain it's far too easy and I personally feel like too much of the micromanaging has been taken out.
Remember when you played a game to unlock all the games content?? Now we just wait for all the updates before we purchase the game on sale complete.....
@rjejr Let's just say I have about 130 or so in my backlog. Of those I probably haven't played half or less then 30 minutes. I see a sale and if the price is right I impulse buy if I'm interested.....
Looks like North America stole Europe's art from the last game. I went with Europe and Japan this time cuz there's just more going on in that picture and I like it.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Super Mario Bros. 2
Was never a big fan of the NA one and the Japanese box art just tells me more about the game. Pretty easy choice this week for me.

Re: Play MLB The Show 23 On Switch For Free Later This Month (North America)
If this looks and performs better than last year I Might sell my old version and upgrade.
Re: Hands On: Theatrhythm Final Bar Line Feels Like A Perfectly Tuned Final Fantasy Celebration
@YoshiF2 As does me but I'm happy they have a demo to try it out.
As much as I'd rather play with the touch screen I love FF songs too much not to give buttons a try.
Re: MLB The Show 23 Is Coming To Nintendo Switch This March
I'm ok with last year's version unless the graphics have been vastly improved.

Re: Xbox Live Arcade Hit Toy Soldiers Finally Launches On Switch, Download It Now
This looks like a fun time. Reminds me a bit of Dillions Rolling Western where you actually get to help defend.
Re: Former Retro Studios Dev Reveals "Rejected" Wii Pitch Metroid Tactics
Instant buy! Can't believe Retro didn't go for this.

@eltomo Get ready for a wild ride with that story for 13 Sentinels!
Re: NieR: Automata Sales Soar To Seven Million Following Switch Release
I did my part. This is how you do ports right!
Re: Poll: Is The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Good Enough Value Yet?
I'm going to still say no for us. I have to pay $80 because of the family plan and it's not worth it to me. I want to play some of those games on just my account but Nintendo won't let me just buy it for my account.
Re: Live A Live Producer: Nintendo Wanted Game On Virtual Console, Led To Remake Conversation
@EarthboundBenjy Someone at Nintendo should remind Square that Chrono Trigger exists!
Re: Review: Wave Race 64 - A Thrilling Racer That's Still Deeply Impressive

I also predict Pilot Wings 64 is next.
Re: Unlike FIFA, Switch Gamers Are Getting The Newest Mode In NBA 2K23
@Sonos we can only wish it was only 41mb lol.

Re: Metal Slug Tactics Delayed To Next Year
Was looking forward to this but like was said I've got enough strategy RPGs on my plate as it is.
Re: Star Wars: KOTOR II Premium And Master Physical Editions Revealed For Switch
I think they overestimate how many Star Wars fans have to have this at that price.....
Re: Review: Two Point Campus - A Beautifully Balanced Sim That's More 'Friend' Than 'Fiscal'
Alex's game of the year I'm sure!😃
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap
@teo_o Recently I would agree but in the past they've had some really bad ones. I think for the most part nostalgia rules most votes.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Oh look, my favorite handheld only version of Zelda! Love the charm of the Japan cover. Both NA and EU are just action poses so it was an easy choice.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Metroid Prime
@AnnoyingFrenzy I swear I didn't copy part of your comment lol. I commented first then scrolled up to read.

Re: Soapbox: Correcting A Horrifying 15-Year Mistake By Finally Playing Elite Beat Agents
Loved this game but not what it did to my touch screen.
Re: Best Mario Kart Games Of All Time
Not a bad list. I would just reverse the DS with the 3ds entry.
Re: Japanese Charts: Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Maintains A Comfortable Lead
I'm sure a good chunk of the people purchasing it are getting digital since they already own the main game. We bought it 3 time in our household.
Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Portal: Companion Collection
@timp29 All I can say is find a way to play SotC one day, you won't regret it. It's in my top five all time games. Nothing else quite like it.
Re: Microsoft Renews Trademark For Rare's Classic N64 Game Blast Corps
I've always said this is one of those Rare games that would get me to sub for the expansion pack.
Re: Random: Witness The Star Trek DS9 Intro In Glorious 64-Bit, Zelda: Ocarina Of Time Style
Now all I want is a game made for this intro!! Deep Space Nine is my favorite Trek show and this opening is by far my favorite as well! This orchestra music just sends chills down my spine.
Re: Review: Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak - A Deliciously Difficult, Must-Have Expansion
Just started it last night and felt that first urgent (by myself) was over way too fast. I did faint once pretty early on as it grabbed me and chucked me in the air then pounched. My GS also feels better to use in this version.
Re: Nintendo Has Filed A New Trademark For The Donkey Kong Series
@Giancarlothomaz I thought that rumor was for a 3d game?
Re: Feature: 10 Series We'd Love To See Get The Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy Treatment
The only one I would buy would be a Zelda version. FF is my favorite gaming music followed by Zelda.
Re: Miyamoto Wasn't A Fan Of The Art Style In Zelda: Wind Waker When He First Saw It
@BlubberWhale sadly I was 29.
Re: Miyamoto Wasn't A Fan Of The Art Style In Zelda: Wind Waker
I guess I was one of the few that was sold from the very beginning on the art style.
Re: No Man's Sky Will Launch As A "Single-Player Experience" On Switch
I'm really only interested in the single player anyways.
Re: Random: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Speedrun World Record Now Belongs To Koroks
@OorWullie Yes and no really. When Splatoon first released there wasn't much to play. When the second released I quickly fell off because there became too much to play.

Re: Random: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Speedrun World Record Now Belongs To Koroks
@OorWullie I went in there to take a look around in the back way and came out with a really nice Shield. 😉
Then I didn't go back till I was ready to really finish the game which was about 30 to 50 hours later.
I honestly didn't even know that shield was in there and just got a bit lucky in finding it.
Re: Video: We're Confused About Sonic Frontiers

Btw, the video is 2 days old now.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #101 - Final Fantasy VI
This was a pretty easy choice. Too bad NA got the cover art we did.
Re: Capcom Announces Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Demo, Now Available
@rjejr That's exactly why they did it to suck in players of all skill levels. Seems like it worked to me.
Re: Capcom Announces Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Demo, Out Soon
@citizenerased While the demos aren't the best Rise is by far the easiest and most streamlined of all the MH games to get into and start.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #100 - Super Smash Bros. Melee
Not a fan of either but NA is clearly better.

Re: Switch Network Failure Prevents Users From Accessing eShop And Digital Games
@rjejr That thread hasn't aged well, I think I have over 200 games now....

Re: Random: Hyperkin Recreates The 'Americantendo' From Stranger Things 4
@rjejr just another rjejr fail lol.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #98 - Super Mario Strikers
Both are good but the lack of characters on the EU one is why I chose NA/Japan
