@scully1888 So, how was the accleration/control, since the Switch doesn't have analog triggers? Did you use trigger throttle or analog stick for throttle?

Thanks for the review.

I liked the art & animation style when it came to the gamecube. I didn't like the time-consuming sailing. I never got to try Wind Waker HD and it's improved (shortened) sailing.

Nintendo's aloof-ness with their Directs has really gotten old for me.

edit: @rjejr, above, makes a good point.

Splatoon music always sounds weird at first, but I usually come around to it after hearing it a bunch. This song's fine. I feel like they are putting filler songs out first.

I'd set my second account to japan if it didn't flood my switch news with japanese news tiles. I can wait for the demo to come to NA region.

I tried to play Fall Guys yesterday, but never found matches. I'll try it again later today.

@Andy77mk i believe free to play games don't need nso to play online.

Hadn't gamed much in three weeks (due to warm weather, riding the bike, and other stuff), but I did just play some Rocket League and TMNT Shredder's Revenge.

(That new Rocket League tile for the Switch home screen is kinda ugly. Ew.)

@FishyS I think all these TMNT games are on most DS/3DS multicarts these days.

To this day, every once in a while, my brother and I still say "Nice Driving!" like that comically crappy raspy soundbyte in Super Monaco GP (Sega Genesis/Mega Drive). XD -true story.

It's been so long, even Octane has given up on new Pikmin<3 XD

(Hadn't seen Octane on here in a while. So, I'm made that up, for fun.)

I'm into it. I like that they made the pillars out of glass for the stage. It looks awesome.

If anyone wasn't aware, the stage design is based on this.

Maybe i don't need the 90s arcade tmnt now?😆 I'm psyched.

If only there was a June Nintendo Direct to drop some games to buy.

Sonic Team could never make anything this good!
(this is not meant to be inflammatory. That MK8 Sonic mod is just amazing.)

Good one Kate. Nice roundup.

I watched part of this gameplay video. I dare say, the mechanics look like they might be solid(not janky). This looks promising. (PC footage)

Weird that it says Nintendo eShop at the end, rather than Switch.

Looks very cool, but the lack of corners & hairpin turns may make this a pass for me.

...the fruits of Phil Spencer & Nintendo being friendly. I have no problem with that.

Wow that's a good looking game.

I'm still calling it E3 since the pandemic is temporary (hopefully!).

I don't think Nintendo will show any BOTW2 until after Splatoon 3 releases. - my guess. Although, I welcome it.

It's cool art style, for sure, but it hurts my eyes. I don't think I can play that.

...all that fast low-res stuff with irregular angles and textures. It's taxing. I'm still keeping an open mind, if there's a less sizzle-reel-like trailer. edit: Even playing it at half speed, XD, lol, it's still a lot.

I think Devolver Digital needs presentations need to turn it down to 11. They're so tense. (but I get it if people like it)

I guess I have to watch this show.

Game doesn't look compelling to me. And the current switch can't load open world environments fast enough to keep up with sonic zipping around.

If "Tuna Roll" was in japanese, I wouldn't know what fish was in the sushi.

I get it. Language can be a barrier if terminology is in a foreign language.

I feel too guilty when I see games I've bought that I haven't played. I'd only have a few rows of games on my Switch homescreen if it wasn't for cheap games on eshop, or crazy eshop discounts.

@Silly_G That's good to know. Thanks<3

Probably getting this.

edit: this is currently digital only for US. Limited Run Games has pre-orders available, but they don't have a release date - their amazon page has a placeholder date of Dec 31, 2022.

Now THOSE are some evil aliens.🙃

Oh, it's the My Little Pony artist. I see.

Bokoblin Flight School
(Like the platforms in botw master mode.)

Inkopolis square is filled with people, storefronts, artwork, sunny skies, occasional plane flies by, or a train goes by, zapfish on the tower, food vendor. I don't see the game booting up to dump you in an enclosed apartment. It's too detached & isolated from inkopolis. If nintendo does the apartment thing, I trust them, though. I'm open to being wrong.

Step one, make Jomon period pot https://www.worldhistory.org/image/9523/jomon-flame-pot-from-dodaira/

Step two, add death laser.

🙃

@BulkSlash When you upgrade to an oled, only switch user profiles linked to nintendo accounts can transfer game save data to a new console. You have to have both consoles on hand to do a system transfer. I transferred my splatoon 2 data to my new oled in december.

Played the demo. Trying to aim with that timer is quite frustrating, to me. Granted, I'm not a turn-based game liker. So, you may want to try for yourself. It's a great looking game, otherwise.

Race with Ryan Killer. That only had a lofty 3 tracks at launch.😂

Looking forward to the forthcoming Squid Research Lab Report Direct, whenever that's going to drop.

This is probably going to be a solid game. I don't see any jank.

The real question is, how will this look on the Switch. That game is so good looking, I'm nervous what caveats come with the Switch version.

It's a zelda-like, that's a good thing.

Good looking game & art style. Even though I'm over 2d pixel art games, this one looks compelling.

This could have been cool, perhaps, if it was a regular retail game. (not free-to-play)

This was the highlight for the presentation, for me.

@Olliemar28 Typo with "recently" in first sentence<3

I'm tempted.

I don't expect anything in an Indie World direct to end up in my library. That's just how it's been for me.
