Sure! Why not?

They could always go the crowdfunding route to gauge interest as they're a big enough company to handle the risks involved like fulfillment.

@moodycat I think they already ported Cold Steel 1 and 2 for the Asian market last year. I guess It's just a matter of when's the US/EU version coming out.

@Quarth AFAIK the retail releases of the Cold Steel switch ports for EU and US were special editions (I think even for PS4, not sure). For this game It's already concerning as they only have this limited edition for pre-order.

EDIT: it seems Amazon has the regular edition for pre-order https://www.amazon.com/Legend-Heroes-Trails-Zero-Nintendo-Switch/dp/B099TL61TZ/

EDIT2: I'm stupid. The Amazon link was already linked above XD

The sad thing about this is that he still got the publicity he wanted regardless of the outcome.

My friend actually modded his dock adding a water cooled cold plate in which you rest your Switch on it's back against it and docked at the same time. Even though the Switch has a plastic backplate shell it can still get very hot depending on the ambient temps so the water-cooled cold plate still is very useful. I'm not sure if he still went with his idea of 3D printing a backplate shell for his Switch with a copper back for better thermal transfer.

Gong back to this article, if he could somehow make adjustments to take advantage of the steel structure for heat transfer then ventilation could possibly be a lesser issue.

I compared regular gameplay from the Switch version and the PC demo uploaded on video various hosting sites and I gotta say you can't really see any difference unless you view them fullscreen side by side. For me, there's no point in double dipping. If this is your first time playing Rise then sure go for the PC version if you're the type to be allured by 4K textures and 1000fps. And if portable gaming is also your thing then wait for the SteamDeck. I'll enjoy mine on my inferior brand-spanking new OLED Switch which pretty much gives the same core experience. xD

Ah, Makuhita. One of my mains when I first played Emerald. A pretty (literally) solid choice for a tanky Pokemon very early in the game especially when evolved into Hariyama. I never actually used him again post Gen3.

@Specter_of-the_OLED Rise is a "main" or "numbered" game now though (at least according to Capcom). But without the number

I did enjoy the OG Hyrule Warriors both plot and gameplay. For Age of Calamity I only enjoyed the story since the performance of this game is pretty horrendous. And I blame the grass! XD

It's great that players keep finding and exposing these cool details so that whenever the sequel comes out I could appreciate these details more.

@RubyDevilNine Are you talking about the Master Collection? I think I read somewhere that the reason for the censorship (of 2) was that they lost the original code for the uncensored version. Makes sense since 1 and 3 were intact.

Another Musou game perhaps? Why break a working money-making formula? xD

Seriously though, I'm hoping for anything other than a Warriors or Atelier game (although I'd still welcome it and I really enjoyed Samurai Warriors 5 a lot). A new Ninja Gaiden or Fatal Frame would be nice too but hopefully something entirely new.

One of my favorite RPG series of all time. Already pre-ordered earlier.

But weirdly enough I got charged immediately even though their FAQ says it won't for pre-orders until it ships.

YES! I hope they add the cars from the arcade version and new decals as well.

This is pretty great! I'll explore the code when I find time.

I really love reading comments when it comes to articles like this.

To be fair, there are a lot, I mean a LOT of men (and FWIW women as well), that very much like content like this ("weeb" stuff as they call it?) that in the real world are also very respectful, dignified, proper human beings of society.

Saying things like "hot girls" in the comments is indeed debatable, but personally if women took the time to click on the article, it's either they agree/doesn't care about the term at all/have the same interests as with the males. Same goes for reverse harem VNs. My sister love those (even the 18+ ones). wink

I would personally just keep my mouth shut and let people talk about what they enjoy rather than planting landmines all over the place. I'm pretty sure if someone did get offended then they'll say something and start from there.

Always liked both series. These will always be a "to each their own" type of games. People can call these games whatever and however they want but no need to judge (or bash) other people's tastes.

Controls are A-OK for me. I'm mostly indifferent to control schemes as long a they're implemented properly and not for the sake of just having it in the game. Hope to see more.

The Game Awards exist basically just to fuel Keighley's ego and continuously announce to the world that he's best friends with Kojima and Reggie.

...and to be a glorified platform for advertisers.

The spotlight was never the games. They announce a winner and after 1 second it's another intermission or ad. Unless it's a high profile game/publisher/category they never give the mic to the winner. And Keighley gets to have a job.

The only thing I like about the Game Awards (or award shows in general) is not the game announcements but the potential to highlight the games we voted for, even just for a split second. The game announcements I can be excited for after the fact.

My picks: SMTV>Metroid Dread>MHRise

The first one was a giant letdown visually and in performance. I'm still playing FAST RMX (heck even FAST Racing League on Wiiware) to this day. If the final build is 30FPS with noticeable dips I wouldn't even bother. I would rather play FH5 on 30 since it's more consistent performance-wise.

Still on my 1st playthrough so I'm excited for more QoA updates before my subsequent re-plays.

Still not live though.

I was this close to buying this on the Autumn Steam sale! This is one of my favorite JRPGs of all time! Oh god I'm glad I waited!

I remember joining a ton of game forums surrounding the game. This is a dream come true for me! Hoping for a successor to G.U. down the line!

Should have waited. I bought a 2nd one which was the Pacman version and its great but I like this better.

@Snatcher Yes, I think we stopped playing just before they tweeted they were implementing EAC. We still played a ton before then.

@Drake We were still seeing people flying around to the finish line around that time. Or maybe we stopped playing right around before EAC was implemented, I forgot.

Fall Guys was a very fun little game when it first came out. Had dozens of hours with friends playing this on Steam. Sadly cheaters destroyed this game and while waiting for patches and whatnot we got bored very early on. Regardless of how many patches they put out we literally report cheaters every time we finish a run and there was no end to it. We haven't touched the game at all this year.

Hopefully things got worked out and people try it out. Their biggest fail (understandably) was not releasing content fast enough and not releasing to other platforms fast enough. Ultimately, streamers got bored and dropped the game and other players followed.

Ninetales or Vulpix would be a good fit for the old school kitsune Japanese theme but they already made the Alolan version so bummer.

Yes, I did see some neat details in ACNHHHPDLC on my new Nintendo Switch OLED. 😜

Okay the meme's getting old but I did have a chuckle with that long acronym.

If it's OLED then I'll.....think about it.

More updates are good. Loving the game!

Did they even market the game?

I like chicken and I like gaming. Good combo. Good for him.

@Dragonite89 OMG I'm seriously laughing right now LOL.

Kudos to you bro for missing the point(s). Stay safe.

@Dragonite89 You're being childish. It's not about how powerful the system is to fit a thousand Pokemon nor accepting everything Gamefreak releases. It's about how practical is that especially for future Pokemon gens. You think 10,000 pokemon on a single game is practical? Move balancing, animations, etc.? It clearly shows how narrow-minded one can be.
We can comment on the animations and the models and whatnot all we want and fault the company for it. But there were design decisions that are obviously logical even from a consumer's perspective.

To each their own, sure, but you're entering "forcing my opinion on others" territory. Nobody in their right mind would just buy something just because it has a certain branding (except collectors or fanboys, I imagine). You can be a fan of a brand but you can also express disdain on a particular product of said brand.

If I have to sum up all of the negative comments for this game on the site, I'd say the negativity is geared towards more on "the things I want like X, Y or Z didn't make it to the game" rather than the game being inherently bad. This applies to SwSh.

I'm already seeing people attacking others for enjoying the game. They could have just said it's not for them and leave it at that. It goes to show how low the Pokemon fanbase has become.

This is kinda like pre-Iceborne all over again which kinda falls off of you but still enjoy these micro updates. I guess we got spoiled when the west was still getting the "Ultimate" or "G" version in one release unlike in Japan. Not complaining though.

Sunbreak can't come soon enough!

Nope. Nada. In our dreams, maybe.

I did enjoy SFIV3D though especially the over the shoulder perspective.

Having your own category (i.e., Nintendo/PlayStation/Xbox GOTY) still doesn't make sense to me. Unless they're specifically going for exclusives, it still doesn't makes sense at least for me.

<insert obama awards obama meme>

This looks great!

I want an Arkanoid 99

I'm really digging the environmental art style especially how they blur the foreground & backgrounds.

These remakes isn't for everybody that's for sure but personally I don't really have anything bad to say about the game except for the forced exp share.

Looks like something SouljaBoy would try to sell.

Got the double pack for me and my sister. Though I'll be starting late since the only catching I'll be doing this month are angels and demons in SMT V

Fair points. I'll still enjoy it though. I think it's a step up in a lot of ways...and down in others.
What I don't like is the forced EXP share.

@NoTinderLife Probably because there's still a chance you can trigger it in normal circumstances even for less experienced players and they might not like that. I'm basing that from what they're saying. I played BotW very early with minimal game updates and personally never experienced any of the speedrunning glitches...unless I wanted to.

They're not punishing speedrunners. The glitch could just get triggered inadvertently and that's a bad thing. That would make it an outright bug rather than a glitch.

@Yosher Oh certainly. But I can still imagine some folks (even if they're not speedrunners) will still get mad and tell the devs to just leave the glitch(es) alone. This is the internet afterall. Anything that is at face value "negative" even when it's not will probably trigger someone out there. They fixed a glitch used for speed running so that potentially makes it a negative in the mind of let's say who enjoys watching Dread speedruns. It sucks yeah, but in the grand scheme of things it doesn't really matter.

Personally I'm okay with this. If it's not by design then sure patch it up. Speedrunners should work around that. If there are still some glitches to exploit for faster runs then sure go ham. But if it's patched again I see no reason for people to become upset. People still need to respect what the original design was whether we like it or not. If not then drop the game.

@anoyonmus I agree.

To be fair though, Bethesda announced ES6 way before the announcement that they got bought. So PlayStation fans (and maybe Nintendo fans too) has some right to whine and complain about the exclusivity unless they game on PC as well.
