@Tasuki 8 Deluxe allows for custom items, so you have the option to make it more skill based with mushrooms and bananas only, or. . .y'know. . .Blue Shell only on Baby Park.
Crazy how these games sell tens of millions, yet still go for outrageous prices on the used market. The Pokemon fanbase is disgusting, and nostalgia is a drug.
I mean, I guess the app now has a version of the WSR theme, but. . .outside of Wario Shipyard (for now) and 3DS Rainbow Road, most of the songs in the game are either mid or have better versions in 8 Deluxe.
Fact: if you've played a Fire Emblem on Switch or selected the series as your preference, this app will give you a day to day history of the series, including the Japan-only games.
I was wondering what I would do once I finished Shadow Dragon DS, since I'm not getting my next FE (Shadows of Valentia) until I've saved for the Switch 2. Turns out Nintendo had my back.
@-wc- actually, that feature has been a staple of the Forza franchise, and I can tell you this: it works for Forza. It won't work for Mariokart (or Fzero, for that matter.
I think I get why people still hold on to Double Dash, but as someone who has played a lot of different racing games over the years, I prefer to focus more on the racing part. Leave the heavy strategy to Fire Emblem.
Got a decent way through Shadow Dragon DS, and holy cow, that game should be MUCH higher on this list along with NSMB and Spirit Tracks. It does not get more classic FE than that, and I will gladly take it over both Advance Wars entries on this system.
Calling it now: Forza Horizon style expansion island in about two to three years, when everyone has the game. Not sure if that will be good or bad, but it'll probably happen.
Like I'm even gonna get New Horizons. Obviously I will for collecting purposes, but this year, I only have my eye on New Leaf and Happy Home Designer, which will hold me off for a couple years. After all the things I've heard, I'm so glad I'm not an AC fan.
I've been playing on Xbox since 2016, and ultimately, every achievement I earned was meaningless. I wanna make up what I do in my games, not have outside objectives laid before me.
As for the eShop music, id only be there for two minutes, tops.
@Banjo- lol absolutely not. The Wii U was bad, and there is no way around that. It was underpowered, it's UI was insanely slow, it's VC was worse than the Wii, third parties left after a year, the controller was underutilized, and it's games were largely disappointing. Even if you factor in modding, the Wii and 3DS do all that for cheaper and better. It's the worst console they've ever made, and it's not even close.
I'm still in, because Nintendo is the only console manufacturer I have any hope in. If the Switch 2 is their last console, then you can take solace in the fact that I will never buy anything new gaming related again.

@Tasuki ah.
Even more proof as to why it was the way it was, honestly.

Re: Overwatch 2 x Street Fighter 6 Collaboration Announced
@kkslider5552000 I always wondered why V was the only Street Fighter that never came to a Nintendo platform. . .until I saw its reception.
Re: Nintendo Updates Its User Agreement To Crack Down On Emulation
@NintendoSux none of this changes the fact that piracy is wrong and illegal. It doesn't matter if you can get away with it; it's still wrong.
Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Is Now The Second-Best Selling Game In The Series

Re: PSA: You Can Still Play One Game Across Two Switches, But Not Online Anymore
I wasn't able to do that with Splatoon 2 BEFORE the update. Besides, this is why used physical games and split screen exist.
Re: Mario Kart's 3DS Album Races Onto Nintendo Music, Here's Every Song Included

Re: Feature: Fire Emblem Narratives, Ranked – Which Fire Emblem Has The Best Story?
Lol Shadow Dragon had a better story than Fates. Even Heroes had a better story.
Re: Poll: After One Month, How Often Are You Actually Using 'Nintendo Today'?
Fact: if you've played a Fire Emblem on Switch or selected the series as your preference, this app will give you a day to day history of the series, including the Japan-only games.
That alone made me revisit this app.

As of the Mario references in the game weren't obvious enough. . .
Re: Sun & Moon Fans Rejoice! Pokémon TCG Pocket's Next Set Is All About Alola

Who actually liked Sun and Moon?

Re: Fire Emblem Engage Added To Nintendo Music, Here's Every Song Included
This is great, but I'm not spoiling myself on this until I've played all the others.
Pray for my soul 😰.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library With A Classic Fire Emblem
@Rooty no joke, I recently played an Arena match in Heroes where three of my opponent's picks were variants of L'Arachel.

Re: amiibo Could Be Getting A Price Hike, According To GameStop Listings (US)
Yeah, I'll just stick with the older ones on Amazon and eBay (Alm and Celica for $40, anyone?) and wait a few years on the newer ones.
Re: Another Fire Emblem Soundtrack Looks To Be Joining Nintendo Music
Not Shadow Dragon? Or Awakening? Or Three Houses?
I haven't even listened to anything from Engage, since it's not in Smash. Give me a break!

Told you. They never would've done this without giving you something to do, and I think they did it well.
Re: A New Turn-Based Tactics Star Wars Game Has Been Announced
Too late. I've confirmed to the church of Fire Emblem.
Re: Opinion: It's Been 20 Years Since I Was This Excited For A Mario Kart

Bought one at a used bookstore I usually go to, since nothing else interested me on that visit. Little did I know. . .
Re: Some Fans Are Drawing Unfavourable Comparisons Between Switch 2 And Xbox One
It's not the same.
Bowser is basically saying the Switch 1 will be to the Switch 2 what the 3DS was to the Switch 1.
Mattrick was literally confirming the the 360 was better in every way.
Re: Is The Switch 2 A Steam Deck Killer? Digital Foundry Dives Deep
It play physical games and doesn't require an account for most of them. That's a Steam Deck killer for me.

Re: The Switch 2 Won't Have Achievements Or eShop Music

@Solid_Python if we get another Wii U generation, we may finally see permanent price cuts, though.
Re: Talking Point: Zelda: Wind Waker Is On Switch 2 - Do You Still Want A WW:HD Port?
@Banjo- I still stand by my claim. I feel no loss in not owning a Wii U.
Re: Talking Point: Zelda: Wind Waker Is On Switch 2 - Do You Still Want A WW:HD Port?
@Donutman yes, but the remake came first.

That may or may not be related to my head canon (no reason to not believe it).
