Enjoyed PQ a good bit, really really enjoyed 7th dragon (except for Allie's Death March, ugh, "Hey guys we heard you thought this game was too easy, here's a sidequest you can only win by cheesing"), the only thing I hesitate about the EO games is that they're apparently [redacted]-crunchingly difficult. A nice middle ground would be good.
@Shugo I would love to see NLife and similar sites call out the people behind that Stars rumor, single them out, there's never ever any consequence for media types straight **making things up**, in any field. There should be. Every single time that "source" is mentioned it should be appended with "Who brought us a made-from-whole-cloth rumor about a main line Pokemon switch game." Ideally the site in question would fire the person, fabrication of news should be an automatic career-ender in the journalism industry, even if it's something minor in the grand scheme of things like a pokemon game. Until there are actual consequences for making stuff up, people are going to keep making stuff up.
As for me, I'm excited to see Gen II make a comeback. Gen 1 was my childhood but Gen 2 was just better.
Silver was my favorite pokemon game until I played HG/SS, which is just terrific, but assuming the price isn't just bonkers this is still going to be a day 1 buy.
@PlywoodStick you know, given the amount of money I've put into my 3DS I'm just glad I won't be forced to hurl it against a wall after the 400,000th instruction to "jump jump" and/or "slide slide" in frost man's stage or the wily stage.
I've got the 3DS version, bought it to get the Gunvolt DLC before it cost money, but going through BoxBoy 3 and Brave Dungeon first, then will get this out of the way before moving onto the new FE. Lots to do, lots to do.
Give me some awesome mario odyssey and finally get the VC rolling and you can finally talk me into dropping $350 for this thing, Dark Witch Rudymical isn't a system seller by itself dangit
Didn't Club Nintendo offer Mario Kart 7, the whole actual game, or am I misremembering that, I'm pretty sure I did not pay a dime for it because of something or another.
you too can get a my nintendo discount on SFIV 3D edition or have paid $4.99 for it no less than three times over the past 14 calendar months, including once with the humble nindie bundle to get four other games.
But I guess it's an improvement over "Here's a discount on a game everyone already has", baby steps
How did they do that thing where you can race well but the opponents don't magically catch up anyway? Way more impressive than any graphical improvements.
I like how the free to play Kirby Clash announced during the direct is almost as much content and replay value as My Nintendo has given out since it started.
suppose I'll watch, maybe they'll remember to add bots for Arms like they forgot with Tank Troopers (just kidding, why would they want to add even a modicum of replay value)
@NEStalgia that's an interesting take - to me, X was the last one where I really felt like I was playing a "Final Fantasy" game as opposed to a game that just happened to be called that (looking at you XIII and if we're being honest, 8 ).
Was starting to worry every game released for the Switch was going to get an 8 or 9 review score whether or not it actually deserved one, this is pretty refreshing if unfortunate for the game itself.
One game (as good as Zelda looks to be) isn't enough to make me shell out $350 for a console and I doubt I'm in the minority here. I have to see more, and not just ports.
*impatiently waits for Lent to end so he can spend money on Brave Dungeon (and Blaster Master Zero, and other things), we are getting a Brave Dungeon review I hope
I'll be partaking as soon as Easter is come and gone. I generally don't go for the soundtrack DLC stuff but I will this time as a thanks to IntiCreates for wasting so many of my hours with these two games.
Also if somebody could tell them to stop with the little girls and go with actual full grown characters that would be cool.

Wish this had been released on the handheld instead but if I ever get a switch this'll be a guaranteed buy.

But wallpapers you can get anywhere are good too
Re: Dark Witch Music Episode: Rudymical Is Dancing To The Switch eShop This Week
If I ever do decide to get a switch (please get here soon mario odyssey) this will definitely be in the "to buy" list

Re: Nintendo Download: 20th April (North America)
I don't know how I behaved well enough to justify multiple demos this week but sure thing.
I hope there's plans for a third humble nindie bundle this year, so many titles I never would have got otherwise.

they should still put VI on the N3DS VC darnit I'm just ready to give this money away but no
more releases is good though square, you do that, and then don't cancel them "unexpectedly"

Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 DLC Shown Off In New Introduction Video
I'll be partaking as soon as Easter is come and gone. I generally don't go for the soundtrack DLC stuff but I will this time as a thanks to IntiCreates for wasting so many of my hours with these two games.
Also if somebody could tell them to stop with the little girls and go with actual full grown characters that would be cool.
Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 DLC Arrives on 3DS This Week
so that's $10 for the extra missions? hopefully that price keeps steady until after easter, at least
