Totally buying this friday if it gets the launch discount that it's got on ps4, otherwise buying it on there. Don't really care about the reviews because the look of this is just perfect.
Something about the addition of more color makes the game look cheap now, to me. I'll still buy it because the 3DS games were bangers but man it just does not look right at all compared to the originals.
Anybody who says that there wasn't a mislead with the Joker Smash release and the timing of this announcement along with the P5S name is just lying. I'm not going to cry about it, but they clearly did a bit of a bait and switch here.
15-20 bucks for the game and season 1 in a bundle at some point will probably get me in the door. I dont even play fighters that much but good god did I ever love the first few seasons of that tv show.
Imagine going to bat for a billionaire crypto-fascist who thinks he's better than other people because of the color of skin he was born with. A guy who said he does not care at all about Synagogues and Mosques getting shot up as long as he can keep being a white supremacist. Go to hell.
Every comment above defending the guy who pretends not to know what he's actually about with his race science nonsense is a liar. You are a liar and a bad person.
This rules. Most people I know who are my age have weird feelings about renting Shadowgate on nes and having a weekend or two destroyed by how insane it was.
If they port XCX to the Switch I could unhook the Wii U's external hard drive and just use it as a Virtual Console machine and that would be just great. Also please make it run at 60fps thanks.
The game was on the 'coming soon' page for weeks, and I seem to remember the preorder discount being pretty obvious. Maybe I just eyeball the eshop more than most, but it was certainly visible.
Folks, on paper this is not a 'great' video game. The graphics are rough and the translation is hilariously bad, but it is REALLY FUN. Your little mech feels really heavy when you blast around and there are lots of cool guns and armor pieces. It rocks.
This is a thoroughly competent game that happens to be wrapped in a style and trimmings that really appeal to me personally. The weapon crafting and skill tree are the kinda things that I really dig in games like this, and the look of the ANTI soldiers and the crumbled cities is all very good to me. At less than $5 you'd be silly not to try it if you like action games at all.
I'd like to apologize on behalf of the game for having run over the reviewer's dog, but I don't think it should have reflected in the score like that. This game is an easy 8.
SPACE DAVE. Feels like I've been waiting forever for it to come out. I'll probably buy Earth Wars, possibly pending a review on here just to know it runs well on Switch.
Game Maker support should be a priority, I'd think. I was griping on twitter about Mystik Belle not being on the Switch and the Wayforward account hit me up saying that they were lobbying for it. And I feel that Undertale would probably sell very well if it were brought over.
You were a big part of the huge amount of enjoyment that I've gotten from this site over the years, Tom. Thanks for all the work you've put in here and all the best to you in the future, friend.
I played this on ps4 and despite it being very good, it was very obviously a pc game originally because all of the text was so small as to be almost unreadable from a distance. They'll really have to mess with all of that for it to work in handheld mode.

Re: Project Nimbus: Complete Edition Takes The Mecha Action Fight To Daemon X Machina
The headline pitting the two games against one another somehow is a very strange choice.
Re: The Original Devil May Cry Hunts Demons On Switch This Summer
The HD trilogy is on sale for $18 bucks right now and they'll want 30 for this. No dice, Capcom.

Re: The Best Video Game April Fools' Day Gags Of 2019
That Platinum dealie was hilarious. And I still often chuckle over the NLife Splatoon Legends reveal from a few years back.

Re: Bandai Namco Ending Online Service For Wii U Exclusive Lost Reavers On 30th May
You could shoot the mummies in the butt while they tried to stand up and it was pretty funny.

Re: Fighting Game One Strike Removed From Switch eShop Due To Copyright Infringement
That's incredibly blatant. But the game is very fun and I hope they get this sorted out quickly.
Re: Team Cherry's Decision To Cancel Hollow Knight On Wii U Was Hard, But Ultimately For The Best
This will surely hurt their incredibly acclaimed video game in the end.

Down, but not out. I have a feeling we'll see a turnaround on this baby.
Re: Review: Chasm - A Procedurally-Generated Metroidvania That Pleases Rather Than Dazzles
Think I'm gonna wait for a sale on this one because I'm playing the excellent Timespinner on ps4 and this sounds to be similar but not as good.

I found a trailer for the Hyakki Castle game and it looks INSANE. Holy cow.

Love those review embargoes. It's such a transparent and consumer friendly practice.

Re: Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn Stomps On To Switch In Spring
No Wii U, no sale.

SPACE DAVE. Feels like I've been waiting forever for it to come out. I'll probably buy Earth Wars, possibly pending a review on here just to know it runs well on Switch.
Re: Freedom Planet On The Wii U Just Got A Sizable Update
VERY COOL. I will legit be charging my pro controller to play through this again since the Wii U version is the only one I have.
Re: Image & Form And Zoink! Games Join Forces Under New Company Thunderful
I doubt this will effect anything on the consumer end but I would like to say that both the logo and name Thunderful are pretty awesome.
Re: Video: There Are More Nintendo Labo Toy-Con Than You Might Expect
I'm on Team Bird-Con
Re: Review: Unepic (Switch eShop)
This game is legit, folks. And with the Switch currently being light on metroidvania games I'd say that this is especially hot on there. Get iiiiiiit.
Re: Smash-Style Brawler Rivals of Aether Is Headed To Switch
Game Maker support should be a priority, I'd think. I was griping on twitter about Mystik Belle not being on the Switch and the Wayforward account hit me up saying that they were lobbying for it. And I feel that Undertale would probably sell very well if it were brought over.

Sounds like they, uh... really put the screws to you.
Re: The Legend Of Dark Witch 3 Casts A Spell Over 3DS Next Week
You'd have to be made of stone to not like these games. I'll gladly buy this one on 3DS but the Switch Trilogy is what I'm really waiting for.
Re: Wasteland 2: Director's Cut Will Bring Post-Apocalyptic Turn-Based Strategy to Switch

Re: Nintendo Download: 30th November (North America)
Xenoblade is preloaded and waiting on that unlock. Man, I am going in pretty much completely blind and am seriously excited to play it.
