Re: Review: Rivals of Aether - A Surprisingly Complex Alternative To Smash Bros.

TimboSlice

Unfortunately games like this will sell poorly and lack support. Smash Ultimate is just too big.
And if you have no players online at launch, it’s only gonna get worse.
This is what happened to the incredible game VOLTA-X!
For some reason totally overlooked by the masses (no thank you the ZERO advertising done by the team), and it’s online is EMPTY.

A real shame for games like these that obviously have so much to offer.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #61 - Okamiden

TimboSlice

@NEStalgia thank you. It really shouldn’t be appropriate anywhere though. My wife is South Korean and we live in NA.
It’s easy to avoid that if you were a publisher.
Just my thought, in consideration for those that have a history with that.

The rising sun image, as seen in the NA version, although quite common, is actually highly offensive to other countries that were occupied by the Japanese during times of war and is akin to the nazi symbol. It’s something many people do not know. Obviously not the level of Nazi germany, but something to be aware of.

Re: Review: WWE 2K Battlegrounds - A Disappointingly Poor Wrestlefest

@Dog I mean the wwe 2k games’ look - which I’ve never thought were a good idea, and then this one’s. Sorry, should have been more clear.
I think they just aren’t hitting the mark on finding a great look....
People have been clamouring for a Wrestlefest remake for sooo long. It would be an easy and much well-received choice.

I have been blasting this game since the Direct reveal.
Horrible art style and the gameplay just looked god awful from the get go.

Why you don’t just do a new wrestlefest with updated roster, it’s beyond me.
Stop with the realistic look, stop with these horrible designs. It’s not working.

Total fail. Yet again.

I’d love a good arcade wrestling game!!!!

Re: Random: Some 3D All-Stars Players Aren't Happy About The Visible Debug Cubes In Super Mario Sunshine

@BooJoh but they do miss sooooo many titles.
There are so many hidden gems that you could talk about.
Barley a peep about some titles... VoltaX being a big miss, power Rangers battle for the grid collectors edition, etc.
I hate when this site gives many multiple articles on certain games with nothing on others.... I’d rather read a crappy game’s review than yet another animal crossing article....

@RiasGremory hey, I’m a Nintendo guy! I don’t own other systems and I’m all in for Nintendo and have faith they’ll continue to win the “wars” as I think the whole hybrid thing has now ruined my need for a traditional system ever again (which I think also awkwardly has now pigeon-holed Nintendo)...
I pray for games for holiday, but even if nothing there are so many great game so have to play!
Loving:
Spellbreak, Mario maker 2 (still!), Fractured But Whole South Park (Sale was $30 incl all DLC and it’s amazing), XCOM2, Wonderful101, and many more!
Power Rangers battle for the grid comes out next month, we have mario35 coming, and eventually we get LEGO Star Wars .... I’m just hoping for a few more biggies!!!!

It’s a lazy package altogether! The IGN podcast NVC states it very well this week. The decision to not include anything in the package.. a manual, photos, anything... on top of absolutely nothing to the games itself is why I am not paying for any of it.
It’s a lazy drop due to their obvious quarantine delays... they’ve got nothing for fall/winter it seems.
If you had anything, you’d want to show the public now before they spend all their money on the new gem systems coming out...

Re: Fitness Boxing 2: Rhythm & Exercise Punches Its Way To Switch In December

TimboSlice

I am super upset with this.
If you recall, the game FiNC Home Fit was announced in Japan and looked like a great successor to the original FITNESS BOXING as it included other martial arts with Muay Thai, etc.
I am so disappointed this then means we may not be getting an English version!

Also, if this game doesn’t have online versus, then I’m not sure I’ll upgrade.
I love FITNESS BOXING and there is already plenty of two player modes (the article seems to suggest there isn’t in the first one?).

I agree a nicer song list helps, but I’d have paid for a DLC update for that.

I can’t believe we don’t get FiNC!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

Re: Rumour: Port Specialist Bringing High Profile Shooter To Nintendo Switch

TimboSlice

@Jokerwolf exactly! I was so curious as to why they did the collection and NOT borderlands3 right off the hop. The game isn’t that technically advanced and you can make some changes to let it run and nobody would be the wiser due to the cell shaded look....
It’s the only borderlands game I haven’t played so would love this to be true.
