I've actually been trying to collect enough magikarp to evolve one since I started playing back when the game came out. Still not there yet. And now Celebi is being announced, lol I guess I'm just not very good at this game.
Just once I'd like to see "Let's go on a parade with Pikachu in Belfast", lol Events like this are always in places too far away to travel to. Hopefully everyone that got to go had fun though.
So I've never been a big fan of the Waluigi for Smash memes or anything and I don't think he'd be the best fighter to join the game...but I do kind of wish they'd put him in as a playable character. It just feels like it'd be cool. I guess it'd be nice to have the four of them (Mario, Luigi, Waluigi and Wario) in the game together too though. I loved the direct and I'm super hyped for all the announcements they made. I know it's going to be the best Smash Bros. game ever. That's for sure
Right there guys. It says REMOVABLE usb cable. But I personally wouldn't go for this just because I'd feel compelled to keep it clean all the time š
sigh I'll just never understand this "switch pro controller has a bad d-pad" mentality. It's one of my favorites and I have never had a problem with it. Ah well, everyone has their own opinion. I guess it'd be nice if they did some program where people could send in their controllers and have the d-pad fixed for free or something.
Also on-topic, I really dislike cheap knock-off products like this that just try to trick people into buying their products by making them look as close to the original as possible š
Please! This would be so awesome on the Switch! I loved the Wii games. I played them to death. I just love everything to do with the ocean and sea life.
Itās a shame it wonāt be making its way to the 3ds but I can live with it. Iāll look forward to the switch version sometime in the distant future when I have kids and grandkids and the game finally releases, lol
Card Wars was fun, the other adventure time games though..not so much. They all looked great though. Maybe it's just hard to live up to how awesome the show is.
I'd love to clean that box and stick it on my shelf. Although double dash was my favourite, Mario Kart 64 was the original and quite an amazing game when I first played it.
Edit: To clarify, I meant that Mario Kart 64 was the first Mario Kart game that I played NOT that it was the first Mario Kart game ever made. My apologies for the lack of clarity but I wrote this post in the morning before work so..yeah, lol
If they release a game I want then I'll jump at it. I wasn't that interested with Wolfenstein or Doom though because I've played them to death on the PC. Skyrim though, I bought that day 1, and I'd do the same for a mainline Fallout game, Starfield (not holding my breath, lol) or Elder Scrolls.
I really didn't think Yooka-Laylee captured the nostalgia of Banjo-Kazooie that well but it was kind of close I guess. It was a good game, just not an amazing one. I must remember to replay it at some point actually and Banjo-Kazooie too of course. š
I wish Nintendo would stop focussing on banning hacked consoles and whatnot and just focus on banning the people that use them to cheat/alter games online. This really is despicable and disgusting.
Most of my time is spent playing video games and simultaneously binge watching shows on Netflix. I have a minimum wage job and I still live with my parents. I have one good, best friend and I get out to see her maybe once every few weeks. I'm that typical gamer that sits alone in his room most of the time. And it's embarrassing to admit that. I actually graduated at the top of my class. I'm great with coding, drawing, graphic design and similar creative areas. I just don't give myself the time to get out there and look for jobs that I could really excel at and that would improve my life. I don't know why. Is it that I'm addicted to games? Is it the anxiety of socialising with others? The pressure and responsibilities that would come with such a change? I don't know. Maybe it's a lot of things. I think it's ok for them to list this as an addiction though. I really believe that it can be for some people. The same way they might be addicted to social media for example. It's really hard to break that cycle though and to bring about positive changes in your lifestyle. I think most people have a lot of compacted problems that just make it hard to deal with all the stresses in daily life. Anyways good luck to anyone in bad circumstances that aspires to better their self and improve their life. Peace āļø
@DarthFoxMcCloud I was thinking the same thing š "release window getting shorter" and my first thought was Fallout 76 confirmed for switch at a later date?
Nah, but it would be cool...I can just imagine a portable multiplayer fallout.
I don't mind DLC sometimes as long as it's not priced extortionately. I think it's cool if a developer finishes the game, is moving along with other things and then gets an idea for something really cool they could add to that old game they made and they make it into a dlc. I don't like when a developer finishes a game and then takes parts of it out and sells them off later as dlc. Although I suppose all of that is irrelevant in this case, lol
It's an interesting change to see a developer saying they have no intentions of ever releasing dlc for their game. Although I must admit it is nice to see new content added over time. That's why I find games with mod support to be so fun. It just adds more replayability.
I'm hyped! š I loved Disgaea 5 for the Switch and I have a feeling I'll love this too. The only problem is that I'm not sure whether or not I'll be able to afford all these awesome games coming in the final quarter of the year. Maybe I had better start doing some extra hours in work now and start saving š
I'm not sure why most people are assuming it'll be a Bethesda title but that doesn't mean I hope it isn't. If it's a Fallout or Elder Scrolls game I'd be super hyped for that. I'm still upset fallout 76 isn't coming to the switch but I expected it. Maybe a little further down the road it'll be ported? š I can dream.
Man, I miss Mario Party 5. Still, this looks really awesome and I'm definitely super excited for it. I just bought Mario & Rabbids so I've got something to tide me over for a while at least.
@Yorumi YES. THIS. I don't think they realise just how much money they're asking for. I can't afford more than about 5 new games a year so I have to pick very carefully. It's such a shame because this looks fun but at that price I just can't justify it.
No Animal Crossing for Switch news was so devastating I know it's never a good idea to get your hopes up but I just couldn't help it. I want a new, proper Animal Crossing game. Especially since the Wii U never got one.
I guess there's no Animal Crossing for Switch after all. Maybe pocket camp is the end of the series? It sure is taking in the cash for them so I guess they don't really need to do anything now. I hope they show off an Animal Crossing game that takes us back to consoles some day again though.
"It costs too much. The interest isn't there. We're a small team and don't have the manpower. Just play the steam version of you want ___. We couldn't compete with ___. We're going to wait until the install base grows. The Switch can't handle ___."
I'm so tired of hearing these kinds of excuses from developers. When am I going to hear something like this:
"It was expensive but we found a way in the end, even if it meant we had to sell our kidneys. The interest wasn't there so we thought about how we could develop that sector, how we could create that interest or bring it over from other platforms and we made it work. We're a small team and we didn't really have the manpower but we took our time, everyone studied and worked in their own time and we did all that we could to meet our goals for this game. We wanted this version to be on par with the other versions so we made it happen. We probably can't compete with ___ but that doesn't mean we aren't going to try. We'll play on our strengths and pave the way for our game. The Switch didn't have the raw power to run the game the way we originally created it so we got innovative. We made it from the ground up for the platform and the result was breathtaking."
Just once I'd like to hear a true success story from a developer that took the risks, that never gave up despite all of the barriers they came across. I'd like to hear about a developer that made it happen, that struck gold and that laughed at the competition and the naysayers when people saw that they managed to create something truly amazing from their passion, enthusiasm and dedication.
I know I'm speaking of ideals here but still...I can dream...
I'd like to see some more "NES Remix" style games. Those were awesome and I can just imagine what fully remixed games would be like instead of the little minigames. N64 Remix anyone?
Well the day/night cycle theory is definitely incorrect as I evolved my wurmple into silcoon during the daytime. I don't really care how it works though so whatever, lol
I'm surprised there isn't more outrage at Amazon actually having the audacity to price this above the RRP. I personally am pretty annoyed at that. Hopefully it's just a mistake and it'll be corrected soon though.
I'm not saying it's impossible that it'll come to the switch but it seems highly unlikely. I feel like this type of article is trying to make our hopes and dreams into reality. Like maybe if we hype it up enough God Howard will drop Fallout 76 Switch edition from the heavens for us.
I always just figured it was some form of on-going joke from the Wii days back when they were making Wii Fit and stuff like that. I would never have expected their value to decline because it got cancelled though. Things like that happen all the time, lol
