Re: Poll: So, How Would You Rate The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct?

@ManaOwls I get the sentiment, but if you thought Nintendo was perfect before the Switch, you might wanna get a history book. The 3DS and Wii U era especially was abysmal. I love the 3DS, but it wasn't until halfway through the Switchs life that we saw how good it was because of how awful the 2010s were. 2016 was their worst year, period. The only thing I see wrong with this Direct are the new storage requirements and the continued use of NSO. Otherwise, Nintendo is still the same they were 40 years ago: making great new games we will cherish for years to come. At the end of the day, it's the games that matter.

Re: Best Xenoblade Chronicles Games Of All Time

The only thing I got out of this as someone who has never played any of these is that all of them now have lower ratings, which is especially noticeable on the top 100 list. XC1 is no longer in the top 20 (Majora's Mask now occupies that spot), XC2 is in the bottom 20 (where it's apparently worse than Oracle of Seasons, Luigis Mansion 1, and Mario Kart Double Dash), and XCX is no longer on the list at all (Star Fox 64 3D took its place). Makes me wish Nintendolife would repost that list so that I can beg for more 9s and 10s for Mariokart DS, Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, Kid Icarus Uprising, and Wario Land 4 in order to push them onto the list.

I'm playing through FE Blazing Blade, and, hoo boi, am I feeling that. It feels like complete luck sometimes. Can't wait to do this TEN MORE TIMES (the double count is both versions of Shadow Dragon, not both non-DLC Fates routes. I don't have enough respect for Fates to play Conquest).
