My grandparents play their wii every other day. They actually just bought another one on eBay a few months ago just in case their “wii bowling” stops working. That disc has never left their console in 10 years 😂
@rjejr I agree. The only explanation I can think of for not having directs lately is lack of games to show. I’m not sure why games like windwaker hd and twilight princess aren’t released during these gaps.
@Cool_Squirtle majority of people I interact with on mk8 are pretty chill and funny. Every now and then you will run into someone that constantly trash talk. They tend to be the younger crowd who bad mouth. Just choose those N64 tracks and watch the salt pour.
That's pretty neat. I've been playing since the first championship I got on 360. I got 2 already on ps4 and when I saw it was on switch as plus I was ecstatic. Unfortunately the switch version dips slightly when a lot happens on screen. This usually wouldn't be an issue but the game gets fast and you want to hit those corners precise to get the little boost. Has two player though.
@JayJ Quite the contrary on Eternal. I read a recent interview explaining why they decided to focus on a more single player experience for the sequel. They only added a okayish 2 v 1. The multiplayer from Doom 2016 if I'm not mistaken was created by a different team all together. Here's the article link from pure xbox https://www.purexbox.com/news/2020/03/bethesda_explains_why_doom_eternal_doesnt_have_a_deathmatch_mode
I was able to pick up new horizons and doom a day early at gamestop because the mall I work at was thinking about closing. They even gave me the tom nook display. Its hard for me to dislike them.
I was just thinking last week how they should at least add the new songs from three houses on smash. I just couldn't see Nintendo adding anyone from that game that wasn't a house leader.
@Finntendo I was shocked when they were that low. I really wasn't intending to start collecting them, but when they were all my favorite characters I couldn't resist. Now I have about 30 but at least 10 came from that sale. They were even giving away the amiibo display through a raffle. I wasn't so lucky 😢
The more expensive one I got was the samus return two pack. That cost about $30
When Toys r us was closing down, my towns store had so many amiibos on sale. I got all the smash ones for $5 and the animal crossing ones for $2.50. It was a good day.
I understand how people wanted to be surprised by the new pokemon after being shown everything in sun/moon but when you give us a 24 hour live stream just to reveal a different looking ponyta...well...leaks will happen.
I'm not too thrilled of the pokemon thanos snap like a lot of fans but I used my gen 1 team to death. Their going to finally be chillin with the professor like 'BOUT TIME!
@Moistnado I guess I feel differently. If done right it could be fun. Federation Force was a spin-off of sorts. But with primes mechanics I can see it being an enjoyable addition. Either way it will still be a great game!
@nin10dobot that's unfortunate mine showed up a day later than planned and I didn't like how a big limited run logo was on the box. Some people may see that and start thinking like bender.
Like others said before, he (if he chooses to) will probably sell them to someone of his generation because they are the only ones who would buy sealed nes games for the price. I work at a guitar shop and every now and then we get an older slightly rare Martin guitar to sell. The older musicians will practically drool over them but the musicians in there 30s and under don't pay them any mind and see something "old, out of style, and expensive" I can see the similarities these collectors might face in the future.
My grandparents still play bowling on their Wii and my grandma plays the table tennis in Wii play every weekend. They have one in the living room and one in the den. Seeing a blue and black Wii both not covered in dust makes me smile 😃
