@Orpheus79V @westman98 I feel like Unity is a great game to reference for a few reasons... It had a wonderful mission system and was always really fun to play. It got so much flack because it launched with some ridiculous game breaking and immersion breaking glitches. It was 99% patched out and ended up being a wonderful game
I feel like they definitely know that Bioshock influenced their game, but want to distance their game far enough from the insane popularity of that series that was such a mixed bag of critic response. I can see where they're coming from since it does have a huge feel akin to Rapture/Columbia especially being a floating paradise and all... But despite I feel like it's different enough to warrant separation from such a massive franchise.
Thank you for clearing that up, @Pckid apparently has a skewed view of Indie Vs AAA and has never played a good indie game in their life. Their priorities are not really in order, so I appreciate your comment.
@MysticGengar: It's actually a really good horror game and doesn't rely purely on jumpscares like a lot of other games of it's time. It's very psychological and thought provoking, making you ask questions.
For those skeptical, the developers here have already released two amazing games on iOS and delivered on their Kickstarters on time and to expectations! They made Tiny Planet and Ankora! As well as Deiland on PS4.
Also, I knew I had the right suspicion that the 3DS had nowhere to go yet. As long as content doesn't dry up and get stale, I expect another two or three years before either some sort of New New 3DS model upgrade or Nintendo will just stop cranking out first party games.
Here's my confusion: 1v1 battling was literally in the original teaser trailer, so why would such a mechanic be "considered" if it was pretty much confirmed from the beginning? What about events? I really feel Niantic has PLENTY of income now to be ramping up production and making this game the best it could absolutely be. Why anything otherwise?
Does Nintendo listen to our suggestions at all? Is there any way to convince the big guys at Ninty to listen to our proposals that we deem would improve Miitomo traffic!
You all have great thoughts and my husband brought up the idea of Streetpass style meetups to get extra platinum coins for meeting with other people that have Miitomo! All of these ideas could potentially increase Miitomo usage again and they need to have ways to get more Miitomo coins and missions to get more Platinum coins, like winning an item in Miitomo Drop on the first try or something? Just spitting out stuff here, haha!
I'm so glad you mentioned "Klungo Saves Teh World/Universe"! It is quite literally the first thing I thought when I saw Rextro Sixtyfourus and his arcade! Happy to be thinking alike!
Let's say you want to buy a New Nintendo 3DS but don't want to sell it until you get a new one and transfer all your games over and whatnot.
You can now sell your old 3DS to have money to go towards a New 3DS if you would like, and all your games/saves/themes/etc. will be tied to your My Nintendo account instead, so you don't have to own both and transfer everything.
Ahh I am extremely happy that I am turning 20 with Pokémon this year! My birthday is less than two months after the Japanese release of *Red and Green!
Hey, Portland is lucky as poopy for us to get it. We never get anything but lame major artists and a few Indies here and there. We've had Panic! at the Disco twice and Paul Baribeau once. If anything comes here cool, we're lucky.
How the 90s top hits do you expect NX to live up to PS4? It's almost more powerful than the newest laptops that aren't Sony Vaio quality. Get over yourself if you're bothered by this rumor. PS4 is so powerful that very few of its own games use it's full potential.
@XCWarrior Toejam and Earl: Back in the Groove was backed only a couple of months ago and their projected release date is Q4 this year. Probably won't happen, but we'll see.
I voted for Banjo/Kazooie and had so many of my friends vote for them as well. I know there's the whole "blahblahtechnicalthirdpartyownershipblahblah" stuff, but dog damn do I want to see that pair in Smash so bad.
I just played the demo and I'm really hoping that they fix realism like lava melting snow and fall physics for water and lava cause that kind of ruins it for me. Otherwise, the game looks really nice for a Minecraft clone. Also, looking forward to control options because using the left stick to jump and fly is a bit awkward.
@BigDaddysPizza At least they added a significant amount of Owl Statues to this version of the game. And you don't have to start the game back at two specific points (Treehouse as Kid Link and Temple of Time as Adult Link), instead you start at the last statue you saved at, and you can fly to each individual statue as well.
He did all the pixel art for Scott Pilgrim v.s. The World: The Video Game, two Gravity Falls episodes (Fight Fighters & Soos and the Real Girl) and a bunch of other crazy as hell art pieces!
Warning: Google searches will wield VERY NSFW results.
My friend Chris made this game, it was awesome to see this on Nintendo Life but kinda sad about the review. It's his first major game on Android and even on Wii U and it's still cool to see that it's even recognised!
@RainbowGazelle I'm guessing because this update is going to change characters and issues with moves being different could cause errors in playback or something IDEK.
Mother 1/2 stage is probably unlocked with Ness. As for the classic FZero stage? Possibly unlocked with Challenges. Something obviously tied to Captain Falcon.
My friend bought this game about a month ago on PC and it's actually a fantastic game IMO. Surprising graphics, outstanding story, chilling atmosphere and great scares.
This is the second or third time I've seen some of these games! I'm disappointed mainly because I already downloaded Kid Icarus, from Club Nintendo last time it was offered. And Metal Torrent is most definitely not worth it.
