Studio Ghibli would be great and all but they're literally about to release what is definitely their last movie... I doubt they'd just walk back for a Zelda movie. Just don't screw it up, whoever it is!
I definitely underused Fuse for my first 50 hours… now whenever see a base weapon I’ll automatically fuse a strong monster horn on top. I also beat the first dungeon before properly understanding how to use Ascend.
The scariest thing was easily the Gloom Hands, I remember seeing them in a cave and getting killed almost instantly. A second would be the evil trees that silently come out the ground and follow you. Third… spoiler for the mid to endgame Phantom Ganon’s second phase where Gloom envelops the throne room… and the five copies floating around. Wasn’t scary as much as it was stressful.
@iLikeUrAttitude He does show up in books about the history of gaming, because he’s been there for almost the entire length of the industry. He was particularly strong during the coin-op arcade days
I don’t really understand why we need Melee. It’s like asking for a HD remaster of Super Mario Maker, which is obsolete thanks to the later games. Nostalgia bias?
5 Royal deserves a 10/10, enough said! 4 Golden is an easy 9/10 3 Portable sounds like a 6/10 based on the fact that it's not FES. FemC is the saving grace.
@link12684 Really? I’d say I’m a pretty fast gamer and it took me 85 hours to beat Royal! I just reached the 50 hour mark at the fifth palace on my second playthrough tho
Held off getting it on PC and I’m buying this as a birthday present. The anime proved that the characters are its biggest strength and I can’t wait to get stuck in.
Played Royal on PS4 in 2020 and it runs fantastically on Switch, plus the added bonus of it being one of the greatest games ever made. 4 Golden is a treat too and I'm looking forward to getting into that again soon.
@Kestrel Agree mate, with all your posts. I really hope we, and new fans, can experience this gem of a game on Switch. It was such a well-made Wii U game that had no right working as well as it did. My GOTY 2015.
This is the ONE GAME that I need on Switch. After this I can finally let go of my decrepit Wii U... it's in such awful condition. PLEASE PORT THIS GAME!!
I don't watch NASCAR but that was such a NASCAR move. The cars can take a good beating so good on Melon Man for pulling it off to perfection. Now everyone's gonna try it though... that could really hurt the sport.
Nintendo's game music for me is the best there is, so it's a cruel choice. I'd give it to Super Smash Bros Ultimate by virtue of the sheer volume of songs (31 hours of music)!!
He did an outstanding job, and gave it everything from the first line. Wouldn't change a single word of his voice acting. Here's hoping he can experience the game for himself!
I'm honestly as surprised if not more. Out of all the people that have played Smash, Kirby, Kid Icarus, etc, 200k have subscribed to his channel within 1 DAY?! Man I can't wait to see how he does! 1 mil by the end of the month!
There could be tons of licensing issues that may hurt this. But this is so cool, I’d love to see how it works out, and maybe if other countries could try it too.
Knowing he must have recorded lines for FEW: Three Hopes while having that cancer makes me feel awful. Thank you for all the memories, Billy, especially with Maruki and Ferdinand. Rest…

Re: Talking Point: Is Tears Of The Kingdom The Scariest Zelda Game Ever?

Re: Random: Think You Know BOTW's Hyrule? Test Your Zelda Knowledge With This Map Quiz
22,558 points, I got almost all of them dead on. This game man... so good.
Re: Zelda's VA Officially Confirms Her Return In Tears Of The Kingdom
Wasn’t amazing in the first game but I’d chalk that down to poor voice direction since she did a lot better in Age of Calamity. Can’t wait!
Re: Splatoon And Link's Awakening Remake Composer Leaves Nintendo after 17 Years
He’s one of Nintendo’s good ones, his Mario Kart Wii soundtrack is one of my all time favourites. Can’t wait to see him in non Nintendo games!

A entertainment veteran who saw two talented brothers and believed in them to the end. Thanks Joel.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden?
5 Royal deserves a 10/10, enough said!
4 Golden is an easy 9/10
3 Portable sounds like a 6/10 based on the fact that it's not FES. FemC is the saving grace.
Re: Talking Point: What Is The Most Frustrated You've Ever Been With A Video Game?
Demon’s Souls… proved that I’m not the ideal fromsoftware player.
Persona 5 Royal’s Okumura airlock puzzle
DiRT Rally… beat me within an inch of my life.
Re: Review: Persona 3 Portable - A Fine Series Entry, Though One That's Tough To Return To
P3P’s a hard one. It’ll work fine on switch but imagine playing this on your PS5, it’ll be downright embarrassing.

Re: UK Charts: FIFA 23 Knocks Splatoon 3 Off The Top Spot

Re: Disco Elysium's Creative Talent Is No Longer At Developer ZA/UM
Kurvitz in particular was the heart of this game so this is massive. The writing in Disco Elysium is incredible.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 17th)
Today for the first time in nearly two months I played a game that wasn't Xenoblade 3 on my Switch. So that was fun.
On PlayStation... Gran Turismo 7 and F1 2021. Can't be bothered to get the new one.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Noah Voice Actor Thanks Fans For "Outpouring Of Love"
He did an outstanding job, and gave it everything from the first line. Wouldn't change a single word of his voice acting. Here's hoping he can experience the game for himself!
