Re: Hackers Have Now Found A Way To Emulate Nintendo 64 Games On Switch

hcfwesker

@GameOtaku and that's what's really pissing me off with what Nintendo is doing. They claimed the new account system, started on WiiU, was so our purchases would be linked to an account and would be transferable all next gen consoles after WiiU. That was there way of justifying a mandatory re-purchase of VC titles we already bought on Wii previous gen .... but here we are now, and they're saying there won't be a VC. So, instead we have to pay, yet again ... for rental privileges?!?!??!

Re: Nintendo Confirms Metroid Prime 4 Will Skip E3 2018

hcfwesker

Was one of those hoping for a MP Trilogy HD reveal to keep us busy til more info on MP4 was revealed.

MP4 with nothing new to share this E3 is fine ... I mean, we've had 3 years in a row E3 showings for death stranding and still have no idea what 'type' of game it is.

Re: Hands On: Shantae: Half-Genie Hero - Ultimate Edition

hcfwesker

WayForward did a solid gesture to all kickstarter backers by giving every backer a free steam copy of Ultimate Edition.

@Racthet916 Yes, all the game modes listed are available for the original game as DLC. Risky Mode was even on sale a couple months back. So if you're patient enough, the DLC modes might go on sale sometime, again, in the future.

Re: Review: Yooka-Laylee (Switch eShop)

@Galenmereth Glad I'm not the only one with issues on the camera. I posted this in the Forum section, here, after downloading my backer copy.

Got mine yesterday as well and played for a little bit. My biggest complaint so far is the camera. When trying to set it up manually for some platforming segments it feels delayed and then stutters a bit. It doesn't move smoothly and where you want it; like it moves 8 fps or something and you have to wait til it stutters, at least close to, where you want it. Then when you start moving your character it stutters to a weird angle messing up what you set up half the time.

Re: Bayonetta 1 And 2 Are Getting A Special Edition Bundle With All The Trimmings

hcfwesker

Considering both games combined comes in at slightly over 32GB it makes sense the first game would be download only (which apparently is 1-2GB larger than Bayo2). Although they could have used a 32GB card and just required us to download the remaining 2 or so GB's from Bayo 1 on sd card.

These games were amazing on WiiU and I'm definitely tripple dipping as well.

Re: Feature: Yooka-Laylee Jumps Onto Switch in December - We Learn All About It

"there’s single-Joy-Con support ... the ability to play on-the-go" ... these are not developed optimizations for switch owners, these are basic functions that should be expected.

Anyways, I was a day 1 backer of this project. So now it's time to see how much 'more' I paid for the game as a backer ($24 USD), as opposed to the general consumer buying the game at launch. Of the 5 games I've backed, Shantae was the only one, so far, I actually got the game for cheaper than retail launch price.

Re: Review: DOOM (Switch)

hcfwesker

@MoonKnight7 just posting to confirm I got the same response on Prime chat support. The lady offered to put my order on priority and it "could" possibly arrive Monday??? Never had an issue with a pre-ordered game, like this, before. Sometimes 1 day late cause of postal issues. but DOOM is not shipping out from Amazon until Friday. I bit the bullet and canceled my pre-order, I'll spend the extra $13 I woulda saved so I can play it tomorrow and this weekend before Skyrim next weekend.

Re: You Won't Be Able To Download L.A. Noire Without A MicroSD Card

hcfwesker

This pretty much blows. I assumed the extra $10 more than other versions ( which are the remastered versions, not X360 port ) was because of the bigger game cart being used. Dam shame, too, I was looking forward to this.

The extra download space required doesn't bother me ..., its the extra $10 tacked on that STILL requires 50% of the game to be downloaded. This is unacceptable.

Re: Nintendo Download: 19th October (North America)

hcfwesker

@rharalson yeah, when the game first popped up I was excited by the old school survival horror mechanics and graphics. I still play PS1 RE's, Fear Effects, Silent Hill, etc. The thing that turned me away the most was the 30 minute time limit per play. I EXPLORE like crazy in survival horror games so this made it seem as though it wouldn't be my kinda game. But with the sale and your recommendation I'm looking forward to checking it out.

Re: Downloading WWE 2K18 Requires 32GB Of MicroSD Storage Space

hcfwesker

The problem is going to get worse with this "game-save files ONLY store on the internal memory" bullcrap. I have no issue with buying microSD cards for games, but the game file saves is whats going to become the unfixable issue in the future unless cloud or SDcard saves are allowed.

Re: Poll: Nintendo's Switch Arcade Archives - Is It the Retro Gaming You Want?

hcfwesker

Team Over Priced, here, as well. It's nothing to do with my "budget", its the value these have, and the fact many better games are available for the same or less price. This is just Nintendo being nintendo and knowing fans will eat anything up they offer and at any price. Glad to see many others not going for this.

Pinball, at the very most, should be 1 dollar. Whoever adds or updates these on the eShop has to be embarrassed the day they mark NES ( Arcade) Pinball at $8

Re: Reminder: Arcade Archives Mario Bros. is Out Today

hcfwesker

$8 LOL. There's just no way.

I know this isnt the NES VC version, but remember when WiiU eShop launched and Nintendo made it clear that by their next console VC purchases would transfer over to the next console in full .... let's see how this turns out when the time comes.

Re: Playtonic Games is Working on Unity Issues for Yooka-Laylee on Switch

hcfwesker

At least this game is nearing some kind of a finished product. Three other KS projects I pledged for WiiU, back in 2013, are in complete production limbo. Reven ( the dev took 3 years making a different game and now is trickling out updates), Lobodestroyo ( no updates for 1.5 years), and Knite and the Ghost Lights (dev studio shut down so one guy tends to make a mobile version of the game from what I understood).

Luckily shovel knight and shantae both delivered. And Might No 9 well, we all know how that turned out. My WiiU says I've played a total of 11 minutes. Utter garbage.

Re: Capcom Not Confirming Plans for Monster Hunter XX on Switch in the West 'At This Time'

hcfwesker

Did Capcom not learn their lesson when they tried to make Resident Evil cater to the mainstream masses, and how long it took for actual fans to trust the franchise many years later. MH Worlds will sell a gajillion copies, no doubt, but core MH fans will get a stripped down experience so it can cater to NON monster hunter fans.
I was actually glad that Worlds wasn't coming to Switch, but no MH XX localization is a decision I can't comprehend. So for the West, our only option is this dudebro openworld monsters of duty edition version of the franchise?
