If its digital only, then I get it on Steam instead and at a massive discount later on (like I do all fighters these days). WTB 1985-2005 era back when I didn't have to worry about this kind of crap when buying console games.
I hope Samurai Shodown is feature complete ( with everything on the cart and 60fps) outside of its 4 dlc fighters.
I've been an otaku since 1995 and at one point owned over 3000+ anime DVDs, VHS, and BDs.
That being said....
I don't even get off on stupid crap like this, I just love how absurd and over the top it is instead. Stuff like this and Gal Gun actually make me slightly embarrassed while playing but I can't keep my eyes and hands away from watching/helping the pervert party happen.
Same and I'm currently playing my physical copy of Pirate's Curse (4th time since the original 3DS release) and will go back to and beat another mode in HGH (20+ hours logged so far, great game IMO) again.
I will get this and will hold out for a physical copy.
I still don't why Nintendo made the Smash series almost exclusively analog stick tbh. I vastly preferred Brawl/WiiU because I could use the dpad instead and had better control of my actions. I have never liked using analog sticks with 2D/2.5D games.
Luckily the shorter stick range on the joycons makes them easier to use for me.
I really wish Nintendo would just eat the cost of the carts and be done with it. I avoid every game that does the dreaded half the game on the cart and then download crap.
I either wait for a revised edition later on or get it on PC instead.
The performance gap between the PS4 and PS5 will easily fall into a 60-70%+ upgrade over the base PS4 (based off the Radeon 7970 laptop gpu) vs whats already been a speculated of Radeon Navi (which will most likely be a more efficient version of the current Vega 56/64 cards).
That's a pretty significant upgrade even over the PS4 Pro btw.
I want a docked only Switch to match my PC (Ryzen 2600X and a 1080ti)
I'm quite sure Ken and Daisy (one I really want) will be fairly common in 2-3 months. Then I can nab them on Amazon instead of Gamestop and ignore the $5 shipping fee for both.
I dunno though, maybe I'll just go ahead and preorder the 3-pack on Gamestop and grab Young Link as well. That way, I'll have one Amiibo for each version of Link.
I thought this game was going to be crap but finally picked it up while I was still in a Wonder Boy high and quite enjoyed it. I put about 4 hours into and got a few levels into the hardcore mode.
I put about 9 hours into the Steam version and really enjoyed it. My god at trying to do later parts with an analog stick (no dpad by default and no matter how hard I tried reconfigure Steam controllers, it wouldn't work). I like to think of the game as the alternate alternate Majoras Mask to 1991's Wonder Boy in Monster World.
Waiting on a potential physical as usual, otherwise I'll buy on Steam later. Nintendo wasted $1500+ of my money from 2007-now because they rather use transitory, non-shareable systems between consoles.
Good on him for beating the game on that trip regardless! That was my favorite game that year (along with Secret of Mana, Gunstar Heroes, Star Fox, SFII:CE, and Rocket Knight Adventure), and remains my favorite Zelda title.
I am very much so looking forward to the excellent looking remake.
Really torn on spending extra for a Switch copy for the great boxart and handheld gameplay. This is the type of title I rather play at 4k60fps on my pc.
Easy buy for me (loved the first one) and since I don't like Fire Emblem too much, it'll get most of my attention. Unfortunately the new Final Fantasy XIV expansion comes out a week+ before.
Its pretty sad getting down voted for stating the truth, huh? I've been a Nintendo fan since 1983 and watching the pettiness of SNES/N64 owners (PSX and Saturn were superior systems and I regretted my N64 purchase outside of 8-10) games. during the 16 and 32-bit eras was something else.
VR is the future and they'll learn to accept that fact sooner or later.
My advice, just save your time and energy with these guys until they finally get it in the next 5-10 years.
I almost did but I'm waiting until I can get the game for $40 or through a B2G1 free deal. Unlike Donkey Kong, Bayonetta 2, and Mario Kart, that game just isn't worth double-dipping at full price.
I will buy Super Mario 3D World DX at full price though because its a damn great game!
So basically its a 2D hub MMO-type deal and not at all what I was expecting. Might cancel my physical preorder and stick with my Lapis Labyrinth preorder as that seems to be more of what I was expecting.
These are fantastic games and I'll will probably buy this collection even though I already own them on Steam. Oniken annoyed me with its cheap deaths but I still loved it!
Odallus is that weird Castlevania and Legendary Axe/Rastan cross over game you never knew you wanted!
Yeah, I cancelled and am now waiting for a great discount or a BOGO sale on this later on. I skipped out on Hyrule Warriors back in May and picked that up instead.

Re: Video: Here's Your First Proper Look At Dragon Quest XI S Running On Switch

I could just be patient and see if they patch in the extra content to the PC and PS4 versions later though.

Re: Metagal Brings Old School 2D Platforming To Switch This Friday
I got this when it first came out a couple years ago and it was rough. A couple patches later and it turned out alright and I eventually beat it.
I say its a safe bet at $5 but you will be ripping your hair out in a few spots.

Re: PQube Says Upcoming Retro-Style RPG Aggelos Is A "Dream Come True For Metroidvania Fans"
@Dualmask
Thing is, is that this game was going for the early MegaDrive look and it succeeded beautifully. It felt like 1992 for me again

Re: Video: A Sega Genesis Controller On The Nintendo Switch
Don't worry about using Genesis or MegaDrive. As a Yank, I've always preferred its real name.
It would be nice if they did a version with analog sticks so I can compared it to the upcoming retrofit versions.

Re: Assault Android Cactus Finally Blasts Onto Nintendo's eShop This March

Re: Assault Android Cactus Finally Blasts Onto Nintendo's eShop This March
@Marshmello70
While it's not a AAA title, it still looks really good and slick while playing it at 4k60fps on my pc.
Don't sleep on this excellent game, people! I have 50 hours on it with daily/infinite drives alone
I'll get it on Switch if it ever gets a physical edition.
