Re: Poll: What's A Fair Price For The Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack?

I mean, the cheaper the better. It's still cheaper than PS Plus which I mostly use for 1 or 2 games online, and haven't played a free monthly release in ages. At least for this I'm comfortable with up to $20 annually for the set of good games. (Mostly because I was a week away from buying most of them on the Wii U eShop, so this is really a cost savings for me.)

Re: Splatoon 2 Is Getting Another Game Update Next Week

d-slice

I still play it. I've played every few months since release and jusy picked up the Octo Expansion and have been really enjoying that. A buddy of mine recently got Splatoon 2 and we play that. Mostly co-op but it's still a good game. I'll be picking up 3 at launch, which isn't something I do for most games now due to my backlog.

Re: Poll: Why Do You Collect Video Games?

d-slice

The option isn't listed, but I collect games to be able to look at something and think of the years of good memories associated with them. All of my games are ones I would/intend to play again, so if a game is done for me, I'll let it go. That being said, games like Uncharted and Epic Mickey get replayed more than Wii Sports Resort, but there's no way I'm giving that up.

Re: Soapbox: Zelda: Skyward Sword Is Good, Actually

This was the 2nd game I had played (after Ocarina 3D), and I thought it was a joy even then. It was a bit too hand holdy in the beginning but I couldn't recognize it for awhile due to how unfamiliar I was with the series at the time. I think Nintendo does a decent job about making games for the future fan, rather than solely their current base. And we're all the better for their weird experiments.

Re: Review: Wingspan - A Fun And Compulsive Card Game

I found the board game because of this trailer and I'm glad I did. It's a great game and really helped out with knowing how to play this. The controls are a little finnicky but the presentation is great. I do kind of miss the ability to see my cards next to my opponents' cards, but being able to play online with others is very welcome.

I recommend using flocking or predator birds to tuck cards like Swainson's Hawk.
