Re: Review: Lumines Remastered (Switch eShop)

kevin74

I've never played Luminous, & the trailer makes it look boring. However, I'm a little intrigued based on all the positive reviews & comments I've read. But I never really cared for Tetris & I thought Puyo Puyo Tetris was boring, to say the least, so I don't know if I should take a chance on this one, or not.

Re: Review: Hollow Knight (Switch eShop)

I've played it for about 3 - 4 hours now, & it just isn't gripping me like I thought it would. I'll keep playing, though, & hopefully it'll grow on me. I admittedly haven't gotten very far, yet (I have only one special ability, next to healing).

Re: Review: Nihilumbra (Switch eShop)

kevin74

I liked this game on Wii U & be at the "basic" levels which, as the review mentions, were not too difficult. I got 2 or 3 levels into void mode, & yes, that's where the difficulty really amps up, but I never got back around to playing the game after that.

I did download it on Switch, however, because I would like all (well most, anyways) of my Wii U games on Switch simply for the added convenience of handheld mode (even though I usually play it docked).

Re: Review: Asdivine Hearts (Switch eShop)

kevin74

I have this on Wii U & enjoyed it, although I never managed to defeat the final boss. I bought it again on Switch because I want as many Wii U games that I downloaded to be on my Switch, so that they are truly portable (in addition to several of them being improved over their Wii U versions). Now, if only Child of Light, SC: Blacklist, & the Arkham games would come to Switch....

Re: Flyhigh Works Celebrates Kamiko Sales Success With Fairune Collection Announcement

kevin74

I bought Kamiko after reading Nintendo Life's review (I believe it scored 9/10). And I must say that I am thoroughly unimpressed. Its pixel art is pretty, but it's just not my kind of game. I am still working through my first playthrough (although I haven't played it in months) with the sword fighter (blue haired girl). I just find it kind of dull & mediocre at best. I would probably rate it a 4/10 or 5/10.

Re: Kirby Star Allies Has a Demo Live on the eShop Now

kevin74

I tried giving Kirby a chance on Wii U with many of the virtual console releases downloaded, but I just can't get into the franchise, & frankly, other than the cuteness of it all, don't really understand the appeal. Nevertheless, I have Star Allies on my wishlist, because I liked the look & sound of it from the trailers. But I'm glad I tried out the demo first, because the game, while cute & nice to look at, was a little on the boring side. And I, too, felt like the friend characters kind of do everything. Also, after "easy" mode being way too easy, I tried the "hard" mode. And I finished the "hard" mode demo wondering exactly how it was any harder than "easy" mode, because they seemed identical to me, in terms of difficulty.

While I still may one day eventually download Kirby: Star Allies, I will definitely wait a couple of years or so, when it goes to the Nintendo Selects range.

Re: Review: Mulaka (Switch eShop)

kevin74

I pre-loaded this when pre-purchase became available. I've had it on my radar since whenever it was first revealed to be coming to Switch. But I still haven't tried it out, yet.

Re: Fling Cubes Like Golf Balls As Midnight Deluxe Hits Switch On 8th March

kevin74

I enjoyed Midnight on Wii U. It quickly got tough, but I managef to beat it in about 4-5 hours or so. Not sure if I'll get it on Switch or not. I never picked up Midnight 2 either, so if I do end up double dipping, then I'll be tempted to get the sequel, as well. I'm a sucker for having all games in a series be on the same system.

Re: The Nintendo Switch News Channel Took Almost A Year To Create

kevin74

I check the news channel every time the blue indicator appears (which is several times a day). A lot of the content is useless to me, as well, but I still enjoy it.

Just a suggestion, though: For all those with ideas that could make the service better, why don't you send those ideas to Nintendo? Then maybe some of them will eventually get implemented.
