mh.. but what if I liked the bike riding?

"Spread your wings and fly away"

looks like someone's been playing Let's Sing Queen

Thank god! I was loving my time with it, but had to abruptly abandon my PC during lockdown.
People you seriously need to play this.

tropical freeze? that's the only game that have made me want to throw my switch in rage.

if i want a feel-good platformer i'll return to rayman legends: colorful worlds you can complete at your own pace, great art, funny animations, nice music..

<- is happy while freezing

damn. I was ready to give this a pass, but that description does look interesting

since you're trying to get on with the backlog, here's an older game you haven't reviewed yet:

@ilikeike more than any other major western third party.

@Roarsome Pretty much my situation.
As long as it works and it's reasonably priced, then I'm all for a solution that'll let me play games that would otherwise never work on a handheld.
Not only that, I hope people like Rockstar or CDPR would follow through.

@link3710 Also, Rebel Galaxy Outlaw. I have high hopes for that one..

no, no, no ubisoft. assassins creed, watch dogs, far cry, you got those right there

Japanese trailers: if you can tell what's going on, you're doing it wrong

hey nintendolife, would you review this please:
https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/anima_gate_of_memories

on the other hand, I can see how it could get frustrating if you're trying to rush it to get the review done. but in my experience, point and clicks must be played in bursts, taking breaks when you hit a wall and returning later with new eyes.

@Bunkerneath
i played it on pc and must have used the hints like, once?
i don't know how seasoned you are in point and clicks, but if you enjoy the genre, this is one of the finest I've played recently.

"one of the developers"

I guess you meant "all-time gaming legend" Ron Gilbert

do this points expire?

"Security researcher"

What do you mean with "accurate" reviews? reviews are meant to be subjective. accurate according to my taste maybe?

Don't know about the look because the trailer doesn't show much, but the action-adventure genre is quite lacking on the Switch so any addition is welcome.

@AyeHaley
nope, we KNOW it's not coming:

@k8sMum well that's exactly what he's saying

wow I sure have bought a lot of games for the time-a-week I'm able to play

what about the other way around? if I download a "nintendo classic" in my switch, could any other user in my console play it?

which games support TATE mode?

"development costs, is the game right for the platform, what does the audience look like"

I don't like one bit when developers ask this questions regarding the switch

can you do a hardware review of this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07457V4XJ/ or this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0773KT5VS/ ?

but... you HAVE to burn the rope.

nice tag.

Other than the totally non-canon ending, this is an awesome game.

This is the only one of the trilogy I never got to play back in the day. I guess now I'll finally know how the story ends!

@Egg miester:

Actually, the right order is: First they say the Wii is perfect for their games (they've been saying so since even before releasing Strong Bad), then, they say is underpowered, and finally, they repeat their initial (and official) stance.

So yes, it's damage control, but it was necessary because of the huge coverage the gaming blogs have given to a post in a forum, while I haven't seen any blog talking about other posts on the same forum where they explain their decisions, apologize for the quality of the game and tell the measures they're taking to avoid it in the future. But, I guess flaming wars still sell more.

Let´s hope Nintendo isn't delaying it just to have SOMETHING to announce on E3

Now when will they bring the Atari 2600 to the Virtual Console??

Music nerd trivia fact:

Did you know that "Ogre Battle" and "The March of the Black Queen" are the name of two songs from the second album of Queen?

I wonder if there was a fan involved in the development of this game...

What's exactly the block to MB ratio on Wii?

NO... Not so soon!.. I still need to finish ANY of the VC games I have so I can start making space for this (darn, I feel like an otaku).

Also, I'd really love to play this on my TV, but it's hard to say yes to this when Good Old Games is offering the PC version of both Earthworm Jim 1 & 2 for $6.

I thought it'd be Strong Bad this week

320 blocks, ouch... looks like for the first time I'll have to erase some stuff.

The only football game I've ever loved. Please come here quick!

People get surprised nowadays when a developer actually sticks to it's schedule, but Telltale has been doing this since the first Sam & Max episode.

More than showing all my games in the menu, what I want this solution for is so WiiWare developers may go crazy making bigger and better games.

So? impresions so far, anyone? I'm still intrigued by what role plays the music on the gameplay exactly..

They should do like Capcom with Mega Man, and bring the old C64 version to the Virtual Console prior to the release of this one.

wow, just this weekend I was revisiting Wii Play and wishing there was a more complete pool game. Let's see what the reviewers have to say about this.

Looks nice.
I wonder what the third faction is. By looking at the logo I'd say they might be... NINJAS??

Woha! Pokemon descends not one but two steps in the ranks. Bad for Pong Toss, but good for Strong Bad. I guess there was a lot of expectation for this game from Homestarrunner fans. Let's hope it remains high in the following weeks.

Also, what happened with Toki Tori? didn't they notice that I bought it this week?

@MasterMario "Why are Americans getting Pong Toss?"

Because it's got the word "frat" in it's title. Americans are nuts for everything frat.

This prooves that reading the title is enough research at the time of choosing a game for the avarage Wii gamer.

...which explains why a game like say, Toki Tori, is about to fall off the chart.

edit: just imagine what would have happened if they had kept the word "beer"...

So Telltale is confirming Strong bad for the 11th, for 1000 wii points each episode.

At least with Strong Bad, it'll be one channel per episode.
