Whoa, that's so much better than I could have imagined! I love that it comes with Link's house too! I wish that was just available as a set on it's own 🌝
@nukatha I too was one of the kids who read Nintendo Power religiously, and all I've ever wanted to do with my career is help bring people closer to the people at Nintendo. Means the world to hear you enjoyed this and given it such high praise! Appreciate ya for taking the time to stop and give thanks
@Kirbyo I'd describe it as an action/adventure hack and slash with mild RPG leveling and some cool bullet hell shmup elements!
NieR: Automata runs incredibly well on Switch and is a great place to dive in! Loads of replayability too for those willing to give it the time. Try your best to go in as blind as you possibly can too! Maybe chat with a friend who's played it already for guidance if you need it along the way too
@Westlondonmist Felix is quite a bit younger than Alex, so it would have been unfair to give him objects he never would have had a great chance at getting his hands on in his early days! So I tried my best to give them equal things from their generations 🌝
@Chrismino45 I miss the days of having paperback, physical strategy guides too, but to say Alana's guide sucks just isn't cool. She's put in an incredible amount of time into these guides just to give people a hand! Thankfully, we can always update them if we realize we missed a detail, and we did 😊 Thanks!
My goodness, I remember first hearing about this game back during the WiiWare World days! I came to that site all the time to learn about games like this. There was so much hype surrounding this one and it didn't disappoint!
Ahh wow! I always appreciated the fact the manual for the North American version of the game didn't follow the standard N64 format, but I didn't realize it was using the Japanese version of the game as a basis! That's incredible!
Really glad Felix is doing this! I’d give almost anything to re-experience Ocarina of Time with fresh eyes, so seeing Felix share his organic first experience with us is a treat 🥹
@Quarth Thanks for the heads up on this! We're editing videos here at the show and realized that was a technical error with our video export. We've pushed out a new version now though!
@EarthboundBenjy While I do agree it would be nice if we could collective agree on a different label, I think those games are just so unique but still fall into this strange category with their similarities.
This game looks super lovely though and I'm glad @jimnorman put this on my radar )
