@HIGHscores85 Is there a way to PM on here? Would like to catch up sometime. Hope you’re doing well!

@HIGHscores85 Just curious, and I apologize if you aren’t the same person... but were we friends on Wii U? You’d follow my heavy metal artwork on Miiverse and stuff?

I really wished Eternal was on cartridge. But I have room made on my Switch. So. If I download the game, I already have Doom 64... will I be able to give the code away? Or am I forced with a wasted, redundant copy? Also, if I miss the Rip and Tear pack, will it be purchasable later? I’ve been buying for my wife and others (HOHOHO), and I may not be able to get the new Doom right away. So I have all the questions. Lol!

I guess I’ll go back and play Doom 2016 for now. I never beat it, but got sucked into the deathmatches.

I’ve put 91 hours into Age of Calamity, so I’m ready to give that a break. Trying to get into Fire Emblem. Looking forward to Final Fantasy Legend Collection. Loved those games on the actual hardware when I was younger. Had it preordered a few weeks back. And oh man! Double Dragon Neon soon!

If you buy this and already own Doom 64, can you give the download code for Doom 64 to a friend? Or am I given a useless discount or redundant auto-download? Also, if I wait for a sale, will I miss the Rip and Tear pack completely or can it be bought later?

It drives me nuts that Double Dragon 4 is “Double Dragon4” on my Switch.

Speaking of ex-Nintendo franchises, whats a guy gotta do to get some Killer Instinct on Switch? Old or new. I even have the Super Gameboy cartridge somewhere. I don’t care. Lol

Just the soundtrack alone warrants a purchase. Loved this on PS3 and was hoping for this day. Just after I cleaned out my Switch for potentially buying Doom Eternal too. Phooey.

Glad it isn’t exclusive to PS. A YouTube trailer gave me the impression it was.

Thought there was something wrong with my GCN controller while playing Sunshine, and it kept going off like there was a shortage... maybe it wasn’t messed up. I rarely used it when it came with Wii U Smash.

Whatever. I was just there for the Smash reveal. If anything, Rock N Roll Hall of Fame had taught me that the people that deserve awards or inductions never get them. Excited for Rise and hopefully Zelda or Metroid next year.

And I think Evil Dead is PS4 and PS5 exclusive. I would like to be wrong though. I used to have all the Evil Dead games...

I don’t wanna delete everything on my Switch to play this... and I don’t wanna miss the limited goodies. I need this physically. I don’t wanna upgrade my microSD (again) and then buy this.

Builders 2 on PS4 is at my Wal-mart for $15. I’m sure its probably as cheap on Switch somewhere...

From a design perspective, the NA one stands out. Its pleasant on the eyes, the colors balance nicely, and theres just enough to look at after the cover draws you in. It is a bit boring in comparison to the Japanese art, which uses the actual character style... but that clashes and is a bit frustrating to look at. They could learn from one another.

It’s like you’re a fan of a musician, and you go to meet them for an autograph. Instead of handing him his new album to sign... you hand him his old album burned on a CD. Then tell him how much you and your friends copied that CD and partied to it. But its okay, you might have bought the old album legitimately at one point, right?

Have a happy Sunday everyone.

Wished Doom Eternal was physical on Switch. Still need to go back and thoroughly finish Doom 2016. I’ve just been playing Age of Calamity, doing every side quest before each mission. I even gave Super Mario Bros 35 a break. Fire Emblem and SaGa Collection are both preordered. Those are both small downloads and inexpensive.

Never got to play this. Often admired it on my SquareSoft on PlayStation demo disc when I was a young teenager.

16/16. I had lucky guesses on some of it. Never got all the koroks but I pretty much 100% normal mode a few years ago.

I still gotta play the RE3 remake. I loved 2 and beat it with Leon, but not Claire. After so much RE I guess I burned out a little. The amount of time I put into Revelations 2 Raid Mode with a friend is unreal. I hope this one has a raid mode.

I wonder how many of these are exclusive to PS5... I don’t wanna buy one. My PS4 is already slammed full of games that I don’t have time to play. I mostly play my Switch when I do play... But I’m not gonna live in a fantasy... Dragon’s Dogma 2 isn’t coming to PS4 or Switch... maybe an upgraded version of the PS5 Pro will be ready by then.

Don’t worry guys. This is gonna happen to lots of people. The Dark Winter and Great Reset is coming. I’ve got extra canned food, [weapon energy] and batteries for my Gameboy when it comes. Lol

I got this game physically and all the other Trine games as a code on Switch at Walmart for $5 a few weeks back. It was on clearance with the price slashed multiple times. Have yet to really play any of them. I remember really liking Trine 2 on the Wii U’s launch.

I recently 100% the new AVGN game on Normal. Been playing Dragons Dogma a lot. They never made that Travis Touchdown pawn. Over level 100 and at the final boss on Bitterblack Isle. Not many people hire my pawn though. And I need rift crystals to rarefy. Been playing SMB35 and Tetris 99. Kicking butt on Mario and never can beat Tetris 99. I play well but I always get nuked. I don’t know what to do. I gave up on the game for a long time but SMB35 reignited my interest. Might give Hyrule Warriors demo another whirl. My wife wants me to wait until Christmas before getting that or any other games. Actually looking forward to Fire Emblem and the SaGa collection.

I’m ready for a Lost Levels mode.

I love this game, played it most on Wii VC. I do enjoy it on Arcade Archives. Its my most played game on there.

Like many, it baffles me that Gradius 3 isn’t on the SNES service, and wasn’t on the Classic Edition. And other shmups like Axelay.

Maybe I’ll get the game for Christmas. I have all the Zelda amiibo on standby if I do. Can’t get into the old HW anymore. Loved it on Wii U, got a little bored with it on 3DS, and then it just wasn’t the same on Switch. I enjoyed the new demo but I’m a little scared the same thing will happen with this one. I’ll burn out and never look back.

I’d like a remastered Hunters and be able to play online against people again. I wouldn’t mind seeing stuff like Samus Returns and Federation Force on Switch. FF and Hunters would be much more enjoyable on the TV with both sticks and motion aiming. I still have all these games. Special Edition Samus Returns... soundtrack was a joke and the amiibo were used once and put away. :/ Great game nonetheless.

This looks great!

Will there be a physical version?

Everybody keeps saying its just a demo. However, if it lets you play actual parts of the story and carry over all of your progress... then it might be an actual piece of the game. Especially with it being only 20 days out. The copies are probably already printed up and ready to be shipped. I’ve enjoyed the demo, but I think what you see is what you’re getting.

I just beat AVGN 2. Got all the Nerd carts, but only could clear a few stages without dying. I didn’t notice anything special about the ending, unless theres an alternate one altogether for not getting the carts... so Fred Fuchs is the villain, and its based on the recent jungle episode and joke... and I heard Gilbert’s voice in my head as I read his dialogue... so I guess its a welcome change. So was the final boss changed to suit it? I didn’t play the original 2. Not sure why everybody is glad Nostalgia Critic is gone, but they still thank Channel Awesome in the credits.

EDIT: Yep. They removed Dark Onward and Death Mwauthzyx for a different final boss. That kinda bums me out.

I noticed they changed the boss in Super Happy Candy Funtime. Theres a lot of differences. I would like to see a side by side comparison sometime, but so far I’m just enjoying it for how it is.

I noticed right away, as soon as the gameplay started, but it didn’t bother me too much.

Nintendo is gonna grumble grumble away our demos if they see this! Lol. Kind of a strange roster, beyond the Champions... but my mind is open.

I played it for 8 hours. I went from “not this crap again” to “holy crap I need this!” Its sooo much better than the first HW. Beat both stages on each difficulty, leveled Link up to his 20 level cap. I found 5 koroks and a blupee in the first map, and 6 koroks and a blupee in the second map. I’m really impressed so far. They did the right thing with a demo.

Its hilarious and awesome. Hahahahaha!!!

Just hope the demo is 2P. In the meantime, I have tons left to do on the old Hyrule Warriors. If I can ever get in the mood to play it again.

I’ve heard a lot of great things about the Risk of Rain games, but never tried them. Its definitely not like the Wii U days, where there was time to talk about even the most minor indie games. The eShop is an explosion and a nightmare to get through, even just the sales section. I have to really dig just to find a game that interests me on sale; and get on YouTube to make sure it isn’t crap before I waste a dollar on it. Like Overlanders, for instance. A lot of us barely have time to play the good games, much less try all the others. I can see how the guys who run the site can be overwhelmed nowadays. I also hate how I have to check all my games for software updates periodically. They don’t automatically install like they should.

Hearing about mods can be interesting, and I’m sure a game filled with Golden Lynels would be hilarious and intense for about 5 minutes... I don’t think this is something I would do to my Zelda game. Lol. I did like the articles where people made their own dungeons and stuff...

@DegenerateStar Just wanted to comment about your pic. I love Blue Oyster Cult, and even their new album is amazing!

I play mostly docked with my Splatoon 2 Pro Controller, unless I’m taking the Switch somewhere. Which, lately, most of the time I leave it at home.

Storyboard artist? Wouldn’t that be one of the first things? Surely they had a story, concept art and an idea of where they wanted things to go before this long into development? Maybe we’ll get Metroid Prime Trilogy HD and a Zelda Collection for the anniversaries next year. Everything else is just wait and see. Probably will surprise us with it all out of the blue. Random directs and stuff...

Good news everyone! I finally made it to W-5 and started to experience the “Lakitu Fields Forever” like in the above video! I finally had a crazy match. It wasn’t quite as crazy, but it was getting there!!!

@nocdaes Yeah I can’t choose anything higher than 3-2. I’ve gotten #1 about 5 times or so. I’ve cleared 1-1 49 times, 1-2 27 times, and the numbers trickle down. I’ve seen one lakitu, and that was last night. I have absolutely no idea how this guy got such a crazy round. I am getting burned out on 1-1 constantly and nothing but goombas as well.

@vanYth Thats what I was thinking, but it seems like I’ve beaten these levels way more than the numbers indicate. As they loop constantly during the round. If I see 1-1 again I’m gonna eat a mega mushroom and kick a little brick castle over. Lol.

I got a few questions. Played this a bit, got #1 3 times and over 7,000 coins in my total. I have up to world 3-2 unlocked... but its kinda grey on the numbers, and has no star flag next to it. I notice the other stage selections have flags with different numbers next to them, and are in white. I haven’t unlocked any more levels, and I don’t know what the little flags mean. Also, are the icons all random? Anybody know any deeper details?

I wonder how different Gradius 3 is from the SNES version. Never quite looked into it. The SNES cart is a favorite though.

Using the old graphic designer trick of stepping back from the covers and squinting my eyes, Japan wins. Both are great covers, but the characters get lost within the color usage of the NA one.

I was lucky to get my preorders in on the amiibo. I missed the collector’s edition though. Deluxe and the three amiibo is a hefty price tag I need to pay on before March.

@Paraka Those were super nice, and sadly Japan only. I never got them. I hope they aren’t compatible with the new game... I’ll be sad.

They’re both bad. I went with Japan.

The real complaint I have is not being able to register my Mii on my Galaxy save file. lol

Been playing 64 for hours on cartridge. Runs just fine. Except trying to get 100 coins in Hazy Maze Cave. That beckons the game to be “crashed” into a wall. lol

Theres a 2012 KISS album called “Monster.” With an interesting font for the album title. Guess they weren’t brave enough to sue Gene Simmons. For some strange reason, I still get thirsty when I play Monster Hunter though.
