@Aswannsong haha a bit harsh but I agree I don’t and just can’t watch marvel films. And the more I see from MP4 the less excited I am. I actually cancelled my preorder today because I want to see what this is all about before buying. When some of you play the game at launch, let me know how it is!
I am not sold on the bike yet. I am a huge Metroid fan, but I have a weird feeling with MP4, it must surely be great, but I will see and play it first. If so, I will get this amiibo asap
Thanks for the great review! I was already looking forward to this one. Bought it and already had a great evening with this game, i am hooked! Smooth combat, interesting moves, really tough but also addictive, nice!
The midlife crisis bike, the open desserts, the squad fighting in the earlier trailers. Nothing makes me excited since none of it feels very metroid to me. But still I think this can be a banger of a game, retro has done it before multiple times! Lets wait untill we have the game in our consoles!
Somehow I was meh about the midlifecrisis bike for Samus and I do not see the openworld working. But I was excited for this super cute and relaxing Yoshi game. Haha, did not see that coming. I like the Wonder s2 edition and the Galaxy games, but prices are a bit too high to buy them right away. Maybe later, maybe never, ill see. First MP4 this December, I am curious how it will be!
Hmm a nine from nintendolife for both kirby and bananza…? For me those games are at a different level. I would agree more with ign‘s reviews for both these games.
Would have been nice if there was room for an exception this year, with stricter enforcement next year. Kind of a transition so to say. This makes nintendo look really bad in my eyes. I love speed running and how it is often tied to charity and enjoyement of games to the max!
Nothing really, out of lack of time I plan not to get excited about mor than I already am. I am enjoying Bananza too much and as always playing Dread. If I have time I would like to play super metroid again. So, I am good until Prime 4 launches and then I will dig into that like a mad man
@larryisaman yea bananza is great right? Also surpassed odyssey for me! I finished the main part two days ago and now I am still playing Just a great game to spend my time in and enjoy some bananas
I converged on playing mostly Kunitsu-Gami this week and will continue when I have time! Just love the atmosphere and art and the game loop is fun. It's MKW with friends and I will work on the speedrun jumps and skips in antaria if I feel like it (Metroid Dread). Loving the new load times for Dread on the S2! Also just started Metroid Fusion since I got the subscription now, but really have no time
Hey @mlt, the strategy seems to be mostly unit placement, healing units and giving units tasks like repairing a boundary or other object. You collect units, scout the area and collect some resources during daytime. Then you fight along with and command your units during night time. There is no realtime base building. Only inbetween missions you start repairs and upgrade your units. Hope this helps!
Ohhh my, Nintendo is doing well! I love my S2 also, and I hope everybody that wanted one is enjoying it! Besides World I also did not find the other releases very tempting. I did get Kunitsu gami, which is a lovely game so far!
I agree, really love this game! Love the charm and the chaos and the new tricks! I am more positive about the free roam then most. I like it does not force you into all kind of achievements or what not. I am just free to find ramps and highplaces and try to pull of a trick. The world is full of such places to find.
@CJD87 It is an interesting mix of strategy, base building and hack&slash. It runs fine so far of the S2. I still need to test the mouse controls though
I am enjoying Mario kart world, especially doing tricks in the open world mode Doing some Dread running. And started on Breath of the Wild. Also started on Kunitsu-Gami! What a lovely week this is!
@somnambulance hahaha yes I have the same, love the S2 and I would have bought more first party or non-key card games if they were available. Now my brain is settling again and I am more protected from myself somewhat more
Haha it's going well I guess for Nintendo. Here in the Netherlands preorders went in matter of hours. But managed to get a Coolblue preorder for the Mario kart bundle. Hope that everybody that wants one can get one soon!
I never played Mario kar very seriously before, but the open world and all the new possible tricks make this one extra interesting to me. I am excited even though my expectations for this direct were too high
Ill be playing 3D world with my niece, I just love that game and multiplayer is so much fun! And continuing dread on my own. Just bought it and taking my time to enjoy this beautiful game!
