Re: Video: Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster Shows Off Switch 2 Mouse Minigames

@Hero-of-WiiU On a brighter note: The game is fantastic! I played the ever loving heck out of it on 3ds.

It's light on story, which is still great, but big on QOL features.

The game can best be described as an rpg boss rush game. You constantly meet new job classes, but to get them you have to defeat them. They usually come in pairs and show you the ultimate way of playing and supporting those classes. It's always a satisfying puzzle how you can unravel them.

The job class system is perfection too. Letting you swap freely without losing progress and easier mix Jobs and abilities because you can keep abilities from different classes.

Can't rave about this one enough, have fun!!

@Hero-of-WiiU Eh I'm also not forking over any cash for something worth nothing in about 5 to 6 years. You want physical for when your Switch eventually gives up, so you can port it all over to another one. This won't let you do that, so why not wait for a sale and just download the thing from the eShop?

It's just putting costs on consumers while having your face in the store. But you can apparently at least resell them to someone else, is that correct?

@somnambulance We should expect it because they started the trend and it's just the consumer friendly thing to do.

All of this was a problem with Nintendoland, 1-2 Switch and this. But You can't sell this as anything other than a litteral demo that shows of the system! It's just greedy, unfriendly and totally unneeded. And a great showing of what's to come from Nintendo...so that's at least very honest of them!

@StewdaMegaManNerd Fair enough!

To me it controls with the most precision of any title, and it's score chasing system where you rigg up combos is so satisfying to pull off!

The gatcha was Fair enough that I could pull off winning every few weeks, and if I didn't I could still get my favourite if I planned ahead a bit! (My favourites are all the Christmas outfits and Meowser! 😂)

Re: Nintendo Shares More Artwork Of Diddy Kong's Brand New Design

The fact I know Associate Seth being a d*k with this new design has probably done some damage. But the further we remove DK from that, the more fun and joyful his design looks!

I especially like how the Diddy design looks better in my eyes, it feels like the whole family now has a clear design line. Dk always felt a bit different from all the other Kings somehow!

@obijuankanoobie Mario Kart, Cyberpunk and especially FF REmake for me. Along with playing F-zero GX and upgrading the Zelda games with new "notes" to sniff out I'll be busy this year!

Dk doesn't look appealing AT ALL. So I'm also skipping that.

I basically having the joy of owning only one console, so now a whole new generation of ports comes my way! 😄😂

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: F-Zero X

While I feel Japan is clearly more awesome. I feel they made the right choice with the American/European box! I think people were craving the speed and serious racing of this game, and the characters would have made it seems kiddy or anime. (At a time where both of those was deemed a bad thing by your average consumer.)

@mohok Hearing that Nintendo is once again the biggest wrongdo-er here doesn't surprise me either. It's their biggest card or key card. And so every developer would be mad to go for anything but this new key card thing!

Taking away all the bonuses of digital games but just forcing us to go digital anyway... That sounds like the oldschool predator Nintendo we all knew before Reggie and Iwata stepped in!
(The one who stabbed their business partners so hard in the back it created PlayStation! 😂)

Re: Nintendo Music Adds More Than 100 Pokémon Songs In The Latest Update

garfreek

Oh I loved this game to bits! The UK was such a great place to get inspiration from! Loved the DLC island to muck about in when I felt too stifled by the railroading. And it had so many QOL updates and new Pokemon versus X/Y that I played before that!

The peppy stadium filling battle music and super chill exploration music helped a lot bringing it all together! (And finally having my favourite Pokemon, farfetched, finally evolve and act as my starter was the icing on the cake!)🤎

Re: Reminder: Nintendo's Switch 2 Launches Worldwide Next Month

With all the negativity it will be nice to just have it out there doing it's thing!

I'm really looking forward to the new NSO, Mario kart world looks absolutely amazing can't wait to play it! And since I'm a Nintendo only guy the third parties are legendary and I can't wait!

(I will finally be able to play that FF7 REmake soon! )
