Re: Review: Paper Mario: The Origami King (Switch) - A Puzzling Battle System Can't Kill This Funny Adventure

acuphoria

I just finished this game! Wow what a wild ride.
I’ve always been a huge fan of the original on the n64 since I grew up with it as a kid. I recently tried Thousand Year Door and although I don’t deny it is a good game, the story just lacked that extra something that I fall in love with when I play rpgs.
Origami King, however, had me in a chokehold. I don’t often play through rpgs quickly, but I just couldn’t put this down. The emotion, the suspense, the human qualities to the characters. Yes I agree the battle system was frustrating, but wow. The story made up for it. My all time second PM game, 1000%.

Re: Poll: So, Have You Used Zelda Notes Yet?

I tried it yesterday evening and found it quite fun to use. Though sometimes the sounds would scare me and break the immersion, it was fun to find the memories and have them start as I walked into them.

Re: 'Persona 4 Reload' Seems Imminent, But We Still Need The Third Entry

acuphoria

Many in the community have speculated it to be called: Personal 4 Rewind

Which would be honestly pretty cool

Im looking forward to it. My opinion is probably in the minority but Persona 3 and Persona 5 are my favourites. Golden was hilarious but I found the dungeons not as fun personally.

I’m curious what they can add to make it stellar.

Re: PSA: Be Warned, Nintendo's New 'Emio' Trailer Is Packed With Late-Game Spoilers

acuphoria

I just finished the game before Christmas.

Phenomenal game. Even at the end, I was stunned at how everything played out. It was truly a masterpiece story.

In terms of this trailer, I do agree there are some late-game scenes shown. However without context, you really don't feel the brunt of what they mean, so I feel that though its not "safe" per say, its also not justifiably ruining the story.

If you want to watch and still play, you will surely forget this trailer when the story hits you. To me, it won't make a difference at all.

Re: Best Persona Games On Switch And Nintendo Systems

acuphoria

I’ve played through Persona 3, Persona 3 FES (twice), Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden, Persona 5, Persona 5 Royal (twice), and Persona 5 Strikers and the Dancing Games. Playing through Reload now.

Let it be known that at least 6 months of each year for me is Persona games, and as crazy as I may sound, it never gets old xD

But with the amount of hours I’ve played, I’ve saved a ton of money on not buying and creating a large backlog of games

Re: Mother 3 Is Coming To Nintendo Switch Online, But There's A Catch

acuphoria

This may definitely be an opinion that frustrates people, and I acknowledge and apologize for that.
But based alone on the adult themes in the game and how the characters (Lucas, along with Ness in respect) are now often viewed by children and families as Smash Bros characters, ie: a Nintendo first party game; I highly doubt it will ever come to North American consoles. They want to keep the family friendly image, so Mother 3 is something they don’t want to even touch for Western audiences.

Re: Soapbox: Pokémon X & Y - The Series' Greatest Paradoxes

acuphoria

For me, as an avid player since Red and Blue, it was always about the story for me. And X and Y still did it so well, Lysandre was truly a villain with interesting motives and really brought out the evil in the games.

Once we moved on from OR/AS, the stories started to lack. Sun and Moon weren’t bad, and Ultra Sun and Moon were okay.

But the tales became repetitive and boring to me. So I started to lose interest.

Re: PSA: Pokémon Bank Is Now "Free To Use" On Nintendo 3DS

acuphoria

Looking on Nintendo’s support website, it says software updates should still remain available to download from the eshop. But at this point I can’t update my Pokémon bank app to update Poké transporter. Even when I check my available updates in the eshop, I have none on my list, but Poké transporter errors out when I open it asking for a software update.

I’m stuck :S
