I guess I could check it out. I mean, Nintendo is like Dr. Clayton Forrester, his mom Pearl and his daughter, Kinga Forrester. This is just a Video Game Equivalent to some of the worst movies ever made, for Joel, Mike or Jonah and the Bots to Riff on, for Mystery Science Theater 3000.
Sorry, man. Hard pass for me. As tempting as it would be to get another amiibo figure of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad and Yoshi, I already have the characters. the Wood Blocks are a nice touch, though.
I really hate how greedy and anti-charity Wario, and by proxy, Nintendo can be. Why can't they be like that nice boy Sonic? At least SEGA allows charities to use their games for speedrunning. I'll bet I could put together some charity thing simply by playing 2005's Shadow the Hedgehog. That would definitely give me a reason to look out for all the Marias of the world!
I hope so. DK64 is still in the storage back in my old hometown, along with the N64 Console, but this will really help me when I try to get that N64 Coin. Until then, Jetman can shoot the aliens with the Heat from his Jetpac in Rare Replay.
I think I would go with Vivian, but that can be a double-edged sword in itself. Vivian is a symbol of LGBTQIA+, and as such, her inclusion would expose lots of Trans People playing as her to the surveillance promised to the current administration and get lots of Trans people doxxed, and deported to El Salvador, or worse.
If you think this comment is too extreme, then just delete it.
I got it, and with the Super Mario Stadium Bag, as well. At least I got SOMETHING Switch 2-Related. I still make good use of my Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Keychain, but the thought is nice, though.
Today, I'm gonna stream a game on Twitch, and that game is Sonic 3D Blast. I think I'll do it at 3:00 PM EST, today. I had recently streamed Sonic the Hedgehog on my Genesis MIni 1, and with a new capture card, too.
@TbobB The point of the jack might be to give us options for use of a potential wired headset that let you game without disturbing others, and NOT have to use a dedicated phone app just for voice chat
It's been years since I played that English Localization of the Famicom Game, but I am just as excited for this. By the way, should I consider buying the SD-BD of the Complete Series, or stick with the DVD Version I bought back in 2013 from Anime Boston?
@Jhena I might. If YOU wanted dark, look to the REAL Stars of Square Enix: Final Fantasy! I'm sure we'll see the Final Fantasy VII Remake Series hit the Switch 2, and we'll see Cloud Strife and his Buster Sword hitting Shinra Goons and machines on there in no time!
@Azuris I don't even usually use Samsung-branded Micro SD Cards. I USUALLY go for SanDisk, but I recently got a Lexar Play 1TB Micro SDXC coming to me, tomorrow. Much more affordable than both SanDisk AND Samsung. And I think SwitchForce recommends Lexar, anyway.
@smolsauce Not to mention that a lot of the Overworld of Hyrule and its Central portions of the map all derive from A Link to the Past and A Link Between Worlds. In ancient times, Sacred Mount Lanayru was called "Death Mountain," and in the Eastern Portion of the Gerudo Desert, we see the ruins of the Desert Palace.
Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake: The Seeds of Salvation! I know that's not the official full name, but you have to admit, the subtitle sounds a lot better!
@MeloMan It's either this or the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters, with an ever-changing and ever-evolving Battle System, Unique Characters that move the story along, advanced Job Systems, and memorable Soundtracks by Nobuo Uematsu! Take your pick.
@awp69 You want basic, get the Android Version for like less than $10 on the eShop! Same Game, but with less flair, and no Monster Wrangler, Symphonic Suite OR Voice Acting!
The thing that kept me from playing the Original Pocket Camp was the fact that it kept phasing out support for my devices! I have to buy BETTER devices than my 5-Year-Old Tablet to even GET the Complete Version, and I can't even use BlueStacks to play it, due to Nintendo's Anti-Piracy/Anti-Emulation Methods!
Once it gets here, Sonic X Shadow Generations. WHen I originally got Sonic Generations on PS3, I beat the Main Story within a Day, and Platinum'd It in a Week! This was back in the height of me liking Sonic the Hedgehog as a brand again.
@Samalik Maybe it's on the dark web, where Nintendo wouldn't dare go, unless they were desperate. Don't go to the dark web, your info would be at risk.
Nintendo should've just done what they did in the old days: invite the playtesters to their offices all over the world to do the playtest in person, then collect the data from the results. That way, Nintendo would ensure they keep it secret,, but also so they could use the footage for some promotional video to build up hype, like the VHS for Donkey Kong Country from Nintendo Power did, back in 1994.
I have no idea what it is. For all we know, they could be copying XBox and PlayStaiton, and doing up a Games Streaming Service, like XBox Game Pass, or PlayStation Plus, and it would require you to use it at home, and never on the go, unless you have Mobile Wi-Fi!
@GarlicGuzzler Naw, man. It's an evolution of racing, from things like F-1 and racing around traditional tracks like the Indianapolis 500, Daytona, and even NASCAR Racing.
In fact, 150 Years ago, Rick Wheeler was an F-1 Racer who wanted to propose to his girlfriend Haruka Misaki, but fate had different plans for him, as Zoda was eluding his capture, he would've killed Rick. But 150 Years later, Rick, Zoda AND Haruka are in the future, racing in F-ZERO Machines. It's in the story of F-ZERO GP Legend.
Man, I wish Nintendo would collaborate with Discotek Media and release both versions, as well as Kirby: Right Back At Ya.
@Anti-Matter Symmetrical controllers are good for one thing for me: Katamari Damacy! Using the Magic-NS2, I was able to use my PS3 Controller with We Love Katamari ReRoll + Royal Reverie.

Re: Samsung Reveals New Sonic-Themed MicroSD Cards

Re: Poll: Sonic X Shadow Generations Is Out This Week, Will You Be Getting It?
Pre-ordered from Amazon, but the problem with that is that it doesn't get here fast enough, like Sonic said about Crack-Ups Magazine.
Re: Nintendo's Mysterious Switch Online Playtest Program Is Now Accessible
I have no idea what it is. For all we know, they could be copying XBox and PlayStaiton, and doing up a Games Streaming Service, like XBox Game Pass, or PlayStation Plus, and it would require you to use it at home, and never on the go, unless you have Mobile Wi-Fi!
Re: F-Zero 99 Updated To Version 1.5.1, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@GarlicGuzzler Naw, man. It's an evolution of racing, from things like F-1 and racing around traditional tracks like the Indianapolis 500, Daytona, and even NASCAR Racing.
In fact, 150 Years ago, Rick Wheeler was an F-1 Racer who wanted to propose to his girlfriend Haruka Misaki, but fate had different plans for him, as Zoda was eluding his capture, he would've killed Rick.
