The IGN quote is so famously stupid and I am glad it is immortalized on the NA cover, which I actually prefer. So dumb. I also like the understated white simple cover to the others by a large margin, so it has to get my vote.
I've been eyeing it on other systems since release and always thought it strange there wasn't a Switch version, so this is cool since I haven't yet played it on other systems. I might just wait.
Obviously I'd rather pay less for games (and in fact have stopped buying a lot of PS5 stuff day one because of the high price) but I'm not going to get up in arms about Nintendo joining in with the rest. It is what it is.
They can determine prices on a case by case basis and I'll determine if they are worth my money in exactly the same way.
1.1 with the N64 controller is how I'll always play it. Been a good bunch of years since I did so, and it initially felt strange, but after a few missions re-adjusting It feels like I remember it.
Not denying there's a fair bit of "clunk" to it at this stage (especially while I'm still re-learning), but there's plenty about it that is still impressive and feels great to play.
No. I'm glad it is seemingly pretty good, but it turns out even a pretty good Sonic game doesn't really do much to draw me in. I might borrow it from a friend in the future, but I've zero interest in paying money for it.
Kind of why I never said anything in the first place. I don't know that part of the industry well enough (or indeed her as a person) to make any kind of informed opinion, especially at the time when it seemed some crucial information was missing.
It's late here, so I only got to try a bit, but "keep going" worked three times in a row for me, which is three more than it has before. So hopefully my main issue has been fixed. Will play more tomorrow, but yay!
I've kind of just been dealing with it. When it works it works fine. The only issue I have is when you select "keep going" after a match, it almost always gives me a connection error after trying to re-matchmake for a bit. I kind of just assumed it was due to people leaving or something, but I truly have no idea.
Every little bit of info that gets shared is such a delight. I know it'll be some time until we actually get to play it, but I know it will be worth it. In the mean time I should really get back into Stardew.
@Serpenterror yeah. my thoughts exactly. I had initial disappointment first, but quickly remember just how much I already have to play/is still coming.
I only have a few, but I opened them and they just sit on a shelf to be displayed like I feel they should be. And yeah, also used for games. Not a fan of displaying things like that boxed, either.
Played it on the PS5 and was rather enjoying it until some of the silly difficulty spikes. First game in a long while I dropped to easy during the middle of and never looked back.
It's not impossible, but I don't really have the time to retry a boss battle 50 times and "get good" these days or at least not on a game like this. Eventually I just wanted to move on from what felt like an arbitrary boss battle. thankfully the game lets you change difficultly at any time.
I never even touch ranked, but I'm sure I'd still run into a ton of people who take the game too seriously, so I'll probably shut it off immediately.
Despite the competitive nature of the game, it's always been a chill game to me (I play while listening to podcasts etc) and I don't want that ruined by some jerk.

Re: Yoshi And Kirby Developer Good-Feel Reveals New 3D Action Game For Switch
What in tarnation? I want this. I want it bad.
Re: Mortal Kombat 1's Switch Port Developers Have Been Revealed
The only reason I played MK11 was because it was on the Switch. I had no issues with it and thought it was, all told, a pretty impressive port.
If they put in the work and make it work well enough I might check this one out on Switch as well.
Going to be interesting to see how it turns out.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Donkey Kong Country (SNES)
NA/European because that Gnawty looks like he's seen some stuff. Dark stuff. Stuff you can't come back from.
Re: Nintendo Reveals New Switch Joy-Con Colours
I want those purple ones. MMM.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Updating Your Copy Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?
I let it update and will continue to do so.
I haven't had any desire to dupe any items in my 55 hours of play and don't imagine I ever will really care to do so.
No shade to anybody who wants to do it. Doesn't make a difference to me, it just isn't a thing I'm interested in doing.

Re: Nintendo: $70 USD Won't Be A Trend, Games Priced On "Case-By-Case Basis"

Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom's Switch eShop Price Is $70 USD
Don't tell anyone, but I'll pay whatever they ask.

Looks like something I'd really enjoy. I hope it delivers.
Re: Round Up: Here's What Switch Online Players Think Of GoldenEye 007 So Far
1.1 with the N64 controller is how I'll always play it. Been a good bunch of years since I did so, and it initially felt strange, but after a few missions re-adjusting It feels like I remember it.

I'm having a real good time.
Re: Apocalyptic Shooter 'Remnant: From The Ashes' Gets A Switch Release Date
Really fun game. Don't think I feel the need to double dip, but this is nice news anyway.
Re: SteamWorld Build Announced, And It Brings A SteamWorld Twist To SimCity
Looks really good. Building and digging. I'm there. I'm there for anything Steamworld, really.
Re: Reminder: Nintendo's Switch eShop Indie World Holiday Sale Ends Soon (North America)
Not part of this sale exactly, but Hazelnut Hex is 70% off and just a few bucks. Get it.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
I don't really love either, TBH. The NA one is what I'm used to and it doesn't burn my retinas when I look at it so it gets the vote.
Re: New Game From Breath Of The Wild Dev Looks Like A Stunning Mix Of Disney, Anime And Zelda
I guess it looks kinda nice? awful trailer, though.
Re: Sonic Frontiers Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
No. I'm glad it is seemingly pretty good, but it turns out even a pretty good Sonic game doesn't really do much to draw me in. I might borrow it from a friend in the future, but I've zero interest in paying money for it.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Timesplitters 2
Yeah, they both suck but the North American one was what I had and I played it to death, so it gets my vote.
Re: Bayonetta 3's New Voice Actor Asks Everyone To "Just Be Good To Each Other"
Good advice. I love sleep.
Re: A New Bayonetta 3 Report Features A Differing Account Of PlatinumGames VA Pay Offer
Kind of why I never said anything in the first place. I don't know that part of the industry well enough (or indeed her as a person) to make any kind of informed opinion, especially at the time when it seemed some crucial information was missing.
It's all very strange, anyway.
Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online Library With Pilotwings 64
A trailer as sensual as this game deserves. Absolutely wonderful.
Framerate looks quite improved. I'm hyped to play through it yet again. It's a lovely game.

Re: Review: Jack Move - A Short, Sharp, And Utterly Gripping Cyberpunk RPG
For me at this point a 10 hour game is absolutely perfect. I'm glad this turned out to be quality. It sure looked promising.
Re: Splatoon 3 Version 1.1.1 Update Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
It's late here, so I only got to try a bit, but "keep going" worked three times in a row for me, which is three more than it has before. So hopefully my main issue has been fixed. Will play more tomorrow, but yay!
Re: PSA: Switch Connection Problems? We Wouldn't Recommend Nintendo's Network Fix
I've kind of just been dealing with it. When it works it works fine. The only issue I have is when you select "keep going" after a match, it almost always gives me a connection error after trying to re-matchmake for a bit. I kind of just assumed it was due to people leaving or something, but I truly have no idea.

Re: Stardew Valley Creator Shares Another New Screenshot Of His Next Project
Every little bit of info that gets shared is such a delight. I know it'll be some time until we actually get to play it, but I know it will be worth it.
In the mean time I should really get back into Stardew.
Re: Physical Edition On The Way For Alien Oceanography Game, 'In Other Waters'

@Serpenterror yeah. my thoughts exactly. I had initial disappointment first, but quickly remember just how much I already have to play/is still coming.
Re: Random: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Has Plenty Of Very Memeable Dialogue
It seems like tradition to have the repeated post battle lines that you hear a million times. Not sure I could accept anything else.

That's pretty dang big.
Crikey.
Re: Video: The Unsolved amiibo Dilemma - Boxed Or Unboxed?
I only have a few, but I opened them and they just sit on a shelf to be displayed like I feel they should be. And yeah, also used for games. Not a fan of displaying things like that boxed, either.
Re: Review: F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch - Frustratingly Close To Metroidvania Greatness

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #95 - Earthbound / Mother 2
Always loved how clean and simple the Japanese one is, but the NA one is just straight up iconic and memorable to me, so I gotta go foe that.
