I love OoT's soundtrack (tbh, I love all mainline Zelda soundtracks).
But to add to the BotW discussion, I would have been able to enjoy the soundtrack in-game a lot more if the volume was a bit higher (or better yet, let me set the music volume manually), the ambient and mood music are mostly fine but 'themes' really need to be turned up a bit.
Man, I so love Actraiser but this game.. Nah, doesn't move me at all. Beautiful screenshots, but the gameplay video of the action parts seemed iffy. I'm hoping for a demo, let's keep it at that
I'm not really interested in Labo VR, because of the technical limitations (I own a Vive, Index on the way), but I absolutely love that Ninty is making VR games and are trying out stuff.. Makes me hopefull that we'll see proper VR from them in the future (years, not decades)
Until then I'll live with DolphinVR and hopefully mainline dolphin will support VR soon.
I'd really like the HORI joycons, if they had battery, bluetooth and gyro.. Though I doubt they'll be useable as one handed controller..
Since launch I've been wanting joycons akin to a sawed off pro controller, that's also optimised for docked/tabletop.
I love my pro controller (not as much as gcn), but the comfort of playing with singlehanded controller is unbeatable and it can rival kb&m for shooters (almost)
I have on Steam, due to the vr implementation, still haven't played it yet because it was more or less unplayable in VR.
Thanks to modders it's almost there, so I'm waiting for that and not double dipping on a game I've owned for 4(?) years but not played due to the dev releasing it unplayable and haven't bothered to fix it.. Thanks SEGA
Re is still the best RE game made, closely followed by 0 and 4.
Tank controls: essential, you can dodge around zombies while using the knife.. If you know what you're doing. The controls are spot on and as precise as old school Mario bros.
Fixed camera: also essential, blind angles and corners gives atmosphere. See Re4 and onwards for what you miss with 3rd person, it becomes more action and less survival horror.
Ink ribbons: yes, because you need that feeling of "don't die, don't die, don't die" Quick saves and constant checkpoints is for kitties
*: haven't played Remake yet, but still bust out the gcn for this once in a while. Knife fighting and sub 3hr playthroughs when my RE skills were at it's highest
And this is how piracy will climb back up again, every bloody company wanting to have their own subscription based streaming platform because: muh money..
I'm willing to have 1 or 2 subscriptions, but who the f@ck wanna Pay for 20 different platforms to get what you can get from ~3 today..?
Bloody greedy publishers crapping in their own pie, and the consumer will get the blame in the end.
Nope, same reason I haven't bought injustice 2 yet.
And I won't consider getting MK11 (11? 11! damn, the last MK I really sank some time into was MK3) until I can get EVERYTHING for €60 or less, and then it'll be on pc (Sorry Switch, but you can't beat the beast).
This is just to ignite a bit of interest for vr in Ninty gamers. May 1st, Nintendo announces Valve Index support. June 24th, Super Half Life 3 releases 2241 Nintendo defeats the last remnants of the rebelion and cements their position as overlords of the solar system
As long as they remove the pudding weapons, or give the weapon durability system a serious overhaul..
Team Ninja could be announcing a Ninja Gaiden vs TLoZ vs Other M game, and I'd be slightly more interested than in a clone of BotW. I can't get the least bit excited until I know it won't be as tedious as BotW
I'm one of those gamers who doesn't really care about AAA or not.. But I also wouldn't smear butter on my tv before I play a game.. AAA or not.. This will look worse than the first Google cardboard (but hopefully it'll have less drifting). at best it'll be awful with interesting game mechanics, at worst it'll be unplayable for more than 3 minutes at a time.
Water is wet Sand is unpleasant to eat Sweatpants are for sundays and eastern europeans And the gamecube controller is the best controller ever, including for Smash.
When I first played through SM3DW certain passage really made me want a new top down Zelda with that engine (look), this is pretty close just more plastic-like.. I don't mind it, I think it looks great, and it'll be a day 1 buy from me.
Haven't played Links awakening since the mid 90's, so it'll almost be like a new game for me.
Since Bleh of the Wild have been bought up in the comments here I'll use this opportunity to once again crap on the play-doh weapons, annoying food crafting mechanics, lack of different enemies, the non-effort way they increased difficulty and the total absence of something that resemble a dungeon (no, those 15 minutes first playthrough divine beasts doesn't come close). It's the first Zelda game that I own and haven't finished.
Yup I'm a sour, old and grumpy git, Bleh of the Mild could've been a fantastic game but sadly there's no shovel to dig it out from under all the crappy shortcuts and bad design decisions.
Great now I'm pissy and annoyed because of a game I haven't played in over a year.. Woop woop
I love playing nintendo games in VR, they're some of my favourite vr games, but my RTX2080Ti and Vive just started laughing at my Switch when I opened this article..
My most played vr games (as in hours) are Nintendo games, amazing how well they work and super frustrating at the same time, because it shows that 3rd person, top down/god view and diorama-like vr games are incredibly good in VR while 98% of New 'made for VR' games are 1st person only (I'm still completely mindboggled as to why Bethesda removed 3rd person from Skyrim VR and Fallout 4 VR, and I refuse to buy them until they reintegrate it or it gets modded back in)
Back to Ninty; I do Hope they're experimenting with VR, because VR needs Ninty (or at least I need Ninty in VR) , but first Ninty needs hardware that are actually capable of running VR
If they didn't charge money for the emotes, I'd have laughed this off as celebs being ridiculous (seriously, feeling that you own the rights to a certain dance move is petty and cringeworthy). But being super greedy and charging $5 for an emote is disgusting.. The only good thing that can come out of this, is if they're not allowed to charge money for them.

Re: Devolver Digital Wants To Know What Game It Should Release Next On Switch
I could easily be swayed to double dip if they threw 'Not a Hero' on there.
Eitr would be better or they could do Gorn.. I'd pay good money to see people try to play Gorn with the Labo VR Kit, wouldn't buy it myself though.

Re: Eiji Aonuma On Returning To The Hyrule Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
No more pudding weapons..! Please?
And more enemy types (no, changing colours doesn't count)
And AI based difficulty, not the hack job from last time.
And a recipe book for not so tedious food crafting
And... Well, you get the point.
(overhaul the weapon system and I can live with the rest, if I really have to.
