Borderlands 3 (Series X) Going to be starting Krieg's DLC here next. This is the one I am most excited about since Kreig is one of my favorite Borderland's characters.
Dragon Quest XI S (Switch) Still early on in this game. This is going to be one of those games that I want to take my time and enjoy.
I am good, I have this game on so many other consoles I dont need it for the Switch. It is a great game and if anyone who hasnt played it before has a Switch then I highly recommend it.
I remember opening my mailbox one day when I came home from school and finding a package from Nintendo in it. I had no idea what it was and eagerly opened it to discover a copy of Dragon Warrior. At first I was puzzled did I win a contest or something? Still I rushed into my house and put it into my NES and was introduced to the world of Dragon Warrior. Sadly I had no idea what I was doing in the game as I was more use to games like Super Mario Bros, Mega Man and Contra. I was so confused that I put it aside and didnt touch it for a few years. It was till after playing and finishing Final Fantasy on the NES that I went back to Dragon Warrior and by that time I had a concept of RPGs.
@antdickens Congratulations to you and all the staff both current and formal. Here's to 20 more years.
One thing I would like to see especially for us old timers here is maybe an article or a series of articles Where are they Now. Where you interview former staff like James or Thomas on what their time was like working for NL and what they are doing now. I think it would be quite interesting as a historical look back on NL.
What a shame. I had my eye on this game but I think I will wait for a sale. Why do they insist on releasing these mediocre Double Dragon games but refuse to do a sequel to Double Dragon Neon. That game is still the best modern take on a Double Dragon game to come out.
I havent played them yet. Not quite sure if I should start with 3 HD-2D first or 1. Also not quite sure how it will run on a OLED Switch since that's all I have.
I still miss my entire collection of Nintendo Powers I had going from the Mega Man II issue till the mid 90s. A few times I have almost bought a stack on Ebay.
Most of the NES games I enjoyed have been re-released in one form or another. Either through an online service like NSO or compilations discs like the Cowabunga Collection so those are my main ways of playing them. I eventually want to get an FPGA Clone like the AVS since I dont have a way to hook up my NES to a modern TV.
Borderlands 3 (Series X) Finished the main story the other day so I will be starting the DLC this weekend. First up is the Handsome Jackpot DLC. Currently I am rocking a level 56 Siren.
Castlevanis: Symphony of the Night (Series X) Time for my yearly replay of this classic game. And no better time then the month of October.
Silent Hill F (Series X) Been looking forward to this game since I have always enjoyed the SH series. This ks another game I am looking forward to finishing this Halloween season.
Borderlands 3 (Xbox Series X) Still chipping away at this one. I finished up Carinavore and rescued Tannis. Loved the whole Mad Max feeling of Carinavore and loved the nod to Penn and Teller. Now I am getting ready to got after the Calypso Twins Hideout.
@Tyranexx If you have an Xbox Series X or S or even PC Gamepass its on Gamepass so you can try it there.
With that said I loved Hades and I am not big on rogue games. I will probably try this one out on Steam and get it on Xbox when its comes out for that since I have the first one on Xbox.
I didnt even know this show was still going on. I remember my Grandmother watching this everyday. Its one reason I had my Gameboy when I went to visit her lol.
Congratulations. I remember the feeling when I finally beat SMB on the NES. I remember finishing it and my brother and I were so relieved that it wasn't a Toad at then end of 8-4. I dont think I have finished it since but then again my platforming skills arent what they use to be.
Borderlands 3 (Series X) Trying to finish this game up so I can start Borderlands 4. I am currently working my way through Eden-6 with my level 33 Siren.
Suikoden 2 (Series X) Looking to get some time in this one. I will admit I slowed down on it a bit since my main focus has been Borderlands 3, but I am looking to change that this weekend.
Voted for the NA one. I remember seeing that cover at my local Blockbuster on the rack with other games and in magazines. Due to the cover I had no idea what it was so I based it by. I thought it was a game something like Fallout where you play that woman in a post apocalyptic setting trying to find out who put that tattoo on you.

Re: Animated Tomb Raider Series Returns To Netflix For A Second Season Next Month
I started watching the first season a few months ago and was barely able to finish it. It was ok just not that great and felt kind of generic.

Re: Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition Brings The Apocalypse To Switch 2 In 2026
Couldn't remaster New Vegas or bring out New London officially, could you Bethesda. What a joke.
Re: Can You Name These NES Games From The Mangled Box Art?
21/21 for me. Seeing those box art brought back alot of memories for me.
Re: Talking Point: How Do You Play NES Games These Days?

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Fatal Fury Special (SNES)
