I’m reminded of that Zelda commercial with the terrible line; “Will thou get the girl, or play like one?” At least they’re now able to make puns while being… inoffensive.
@Sunsy @BloodNinja I heard of Peacock while watching an IndyCar race on NBC, something I’ve done only three times this year. The commentator before the race just appeared and did a four minute ad on the service. It doesn’t even look that good compared to the mainstream ones.
@Anti-Guy My thoughts exactly. I mean Ben Schwartz is a stand up comedian so of course he'd be expensive. God that must have been very awkward when they had to come back together...
I'm sure we'll find out in a few years when either Ben or Roger release their autobiographies.
@Snatcher @SwitchVogel Google tells me it was four months, to the day. It's so suspicious it feels staged. tinfoil hat Either way he's great, funny, witty and snarky. No-one better.
11 is so big, that it puts some RPGs to shame. That's the only one I've played but with things like voice acting, QoL stuff, and more, I think this is the best Dragon Quest can be.
@Yoshibros222 Easy recommend. The value is insane and after sinking in dozens of hours into Final Fantasy X I can say it’s one of the best RPGs I’ve ever played. The combat’s very fair and challenging, the story and themes are awesome and very interesting, and there’s some really deep characters.
@Moshugan Correct! I want to get into this series, and inevitably that means sharing the hype. I'd rather believe the intuition of a former dev, than a rumour at this point. I'd rather be real! But that doesn't mean hurting someone for their views!
This is just disgusting. I'm ashamed to be excited for this game, and therefore being part of a community that threatens and scares people who speak their minds.
@anoyonmus I’m hoping the LiS Remastered Collection gets ported to Switch. I expect no because of the advanced technical requirements but you never know.
@KateGray I’ve also observed for a while the liminality of Skyward Sword’s game design too, being between Twilight Princess and Breath of the Wild in terms of traditional, linear elements, freedom and combat.
@Heavyarms55 Thing with comments is that if people don’t agree this’ll be washed away. I absolutely agree with you and I hope people... see this and agree too?

Re: Sonic The Hedgehog's Voice Actor Reassures Fans He's Here To Stay
It begs the question though, why did they let him go in the first place?
Re: Soapbox: Life Is Strange Belongs On Switch. So Why Isn't It?
@Bass_X0 Wooooooo! I'm definitely getting it on Switch now. Except of course if it runs bad.
Glad to be wrong in this instance!

Re: Nintendo Has Started A New 'Ask The Developer' Interview Series

Gonna slap that sticker on @Slowdive’s pristine physical copy of Shin Megami Tensei V.
Re: We Could Have Had A New "Ultra-Realistic" F-Zero On Switch, But Nintendo Turned It Down
That would have been a great alternative to the arcade-y nature of Mario Kart. Never say never!
Re: Random: Shulk's Voice Actor Stars In The Latest Mario Golf TV Ad, And It's A Must-See
His voice is quite iconic despite him being told to do the most generic English accent for Shulk!
Re: Hideki Kamiya Shares Irritation At Speculation Over Bayonetta 3
I’ll go easier on Kamiya when we see stuff from the game.

Correct me if I'm wrong but can't you put the cartridge in the console?

That all but confirms Nintendo's doing a Direct. But we knew that

Re: Square Enix Is Releasing A Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake For Home Consoles
I'm glad I never gave in and bought the game on Switch, this'll put it to shame.

Re: Long Beach Residents Could Win A Nintendo Switch When They Get Their Covid-19 Vaccine
@Tyranexx Shame people can’t focus on the bigger picture here, no? Is it that hard to consider lives above money?
Re: Review: Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne HD Remaster - The Best Version Of An Ageing Classic
Wow. Superb review as always! I’ll wait for a sale then, charging fifty dollars for this is a big ask.
Re: Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster
@Yoshibros222 Easy recommend. The value is insane and after sinking in dozens of hours into Final Fantasy X I can say it’s one of the best RPGs I’ve ever played. The combat’s very fair and challenging, the story and themes are awesome and very interesting, and there’s some really deep characters.

Re: Back Page: Guessing The Next Zelda Title Using Industry Trends
My idea for the sequel idea would be "Shadows of the Fallen"
It takes place at least partially underground and deals with the undead. Plus it sounds really cool and rolls off the tongue.
