@Bearzilla823 The legend is the Mario Land team was really unhappy about being forced to work on an IP they didn't make and so made Wario as an insult/jab at Mario as a character.
They could have at least switch the stick/pad layout but considering almost every "new" controller of theirs recently has had the same case, I'm guessing they have a heap of them laying around
Not that I don' like the guy, he'd be a solid choice being one of the box art characters and all.
But having an assist trophy be "promoted" in the same game is just going to open a pandora's box of Waluigi and other assist's fans at every DLC reveal and tease that will never stop.
Man, this game disappointed me at almost every turn. On paper it sounds like gold, Xenoverse but with lots of anime characters and you can different fighting styles.
The story was meh, the art style is bothersome, the AI is pants on head stupid, and is filled with annoying design choices like having a sword-fighting style and sword cosmetic items but your character only uses their weird not a sword spirit thing.
I just dont get why I should need both the steelbook and the standard case. It first happened with OoT3D and now both cases sit on my shelf, annoying me.
before I clicked the article I decided I would tap out the second Melee was mentioned, 2nd sentence, later than I feared earlier than I hoped.
I used to care, okay care is too strong of a word, I paid attention to this sort of thing but it usually boils down to "but I want money for melee" you just don't get that sort of thing with the other eSports, you don't see people complaining Activision doesn't sponsor Modern Warfare 2 tournaments in 2020.
Star Trek birth of the Federation sparked my love of 4x games, which I'm currently playing in the form of Civ on Switch.
And... That's about it for my TrekXNintendo thoughts.
Star trek has be dying for an game for such a long time. I wonder what it would of been like if CBS approved of Bethesda and Biowares respective pitches
Characters I want... Non triforce Legend of Zelda character. Non sword Fire Emblem character. Non clone Star Fox fighter. Monster Hunter. (Multi weapon like Byleth) Dragonborn (multi weapon)
And Geralt, I don't actually want him in but he might as well add smash to crossovers.
I like E3 its the closest thing to a gaming holiday, sure the news can be underwhelming or not come to pass for years but it's the one time of the year when gamers are "looking" at the one place and all talking about it.
Man I love this game. I recall the exact point I knew I had to buy it.
I was playing the XBLA demo and it just stops and the narrator goes "throats getting a bit sore, I need some lubrication" or some such and it threw up they buy now option.
At this rate we're going to be able to have a smash bros esc crossover game featuring a dozen franchises and be able to have a cast consisting only of Geralt
Remember when Ultimate was "clearly just Smash 4 deluxe", how it was a "disgrace" that Nintendo would charge full price, and how it was going to "bomb".
@fluggy Don't get me wrong I agree but Game Sharing (on both PS4 and X1) isn't really intentional it is just a loophole in the "play your games at your friends' house" account system not an official feature.
If MS or Sony decided to close it (like Nintendo) they need the other to do it too, I know more than a couple of gamesharers who'll happily jump ship if it means not having to buy "every game"
I'm sure this has to do with the classic issue of licencing and actually getting games on the service. Third parties don't want to launch their classic titles via Nintendo when they can do it themselves and make all the money. Alternatively, the game contains, or the game itself is an IP without a clear owner.
Do yourself a favour and only expect Nintendo made games on these things, that way the other games are a neat surprise.
Apparently that wasn't enough for NL, so here are some additional words that that really shouldn't be read as they are not going to add anything of value and simple waste a few moments of your time.
I just don't love this controller as much as I liked the normal Pro, maybe its because it doesn't have the EU SNES colouring or that with the horns the symmetrical sticks cause me problems.
I still rate it very highly, just not as high as the OG pro or the Switch Pro
been reading reviews for this on other sites and man people was expecting way too much for an MUA game, they wanted a grand but focused story, the game informer one actually criticizes it for introducing more characters. can you imagine if this game out and it only had a "few" characters? The roster is what makes these games.
Said it before and I'll say it again, I find it really hard to have much of an opinion beyond "that's a bit of a bummer" without knowing how many pokemon are actually in the regional dex. If it's only got 150 that's a huge problem, if it got 400 its bearly an inconvenience (in comparison)
I feel like we can't really argue about this until we actually know how many mon are ACTUALLY in the game.
If there is only 150 (like DP BW FRLG) in the regional dex that's a big problem, however, is 400 that's far less of an issue (XY had 450+ in its regional dex).
@Savutano Normally I'd agree with you that the utter nonsense of the remasters should make anyone sceptical of this game BUT there is a problem. No developer, publisher, or even the IP holder of MUA3 had anything to do with the remasters, that was all Activision and a mess of studios, where this is Nintendo and Koei Tecmo's Team Ninja.
@Morpheel I think there is some confusion, on the normal one the tablet and the joycons have motion sensors, I believe the lite doesn't have the joycon ones but still has the main one.
I recently got to try the new Vive index, I want the controller's for non vr. Honestly being able to directly interact was far more Immersive that the headset. (The pads have a analogue stick each, can easily use one for movement and the other for looking instead of the headset). It shakes gameplay.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #47 - Shadowrun
I dislike the US cover, It could easily be the cover for a high fantasy game, all the others are clearly cyberpunk
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #46 - Sonic The Hedgehog 3
I just don't like any of them.
The US one is probably the best in terms of the art but at the same time it could also be for any sonic game after the first one.
Re: Guide: Summer Video Game Events: Times And Dates For E3 2020 Alternatives - Full Conference List
Don't get me wrong I'm not opposed to an E3-less "E3 season" but man breaking it up into 30 different events is just a pain.

Re: Hideki Kamiya Thinks The Switch Home Menu Is A "Piece Of Crap"
I think it's "fine", not bad or good.
The games I'm currently playing are at the forefront which means switching (between digital) games I'm actively playing is quick.
It's is a bugger if I'm going looking for something in particular. Of cause I'd like extra features but I can easily live with the current home UI

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #7 - Star Fox
Japanese. It features the same muppet art as the euro one but without the super FX advert text.

Re: SNES Games Are Officially Headed To Switch Online, And 20 Titles Release Tomorrow

I can already feel the rage as next year they announce Gameboy for Nintendo Switch Online next year.

Re: Don't Expect Netflix's Witcher Show To Copy The Video Games

Re: We've Re-Translated That Pokémon Sword and Shield Interview Quote

Re: Game Freak Isn't Reusing 3DS Models In Pokémon Sword and Shield

Re: Gallery: Here's What The Nintendo Switch Lite Looks Like
It doesn't seem much smaller, which I guess explains the Lite, not Mini.
Looks nice, If i find myself in need of a third switch I'll consider it
