Re: There'll Be A Playable Demo Of Capcom Fighting Collection At Combo Breaker

@Burntbreadman I'd assume it depends on the game in question. For Cyberbots at the very least I'd expect all the boss characters to be unlocked by EX mode. The real question would be if they'd also include the console exclusive Cyber-Akuma.

Whereas for Hyper SF2... it's hard to guage what they could do there since I think that version already has Akuma unlocked for it. Theres a few semi-hidden characters in Darkstalkers as well I guess, Oboro Bishamon, Anita, Marionette and such.

In terms of new platforms they should include on the NSO service... take GameCube out of the running. Those ISO's are too big, it's never going to happen.
GB and GBA on the other hand? They should be in ALREADY. Those two consoles literally have one of the best games libraries in the history of man. GBA especially. Where's every Pokemon game from Red to Ruby? Where's Kirby/Pokemon Pinball? Where's Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission (NO METROID 2 GET BACK IN YOUR HOLE) where's Super Mario Land 1, 2 and Wario Land? Where's Golden Sun, Fire Emblems of numerous stripes, Mario Golf, Links Awakening, Minish Cap or Sonic Advance? Where? Where? Where?

Re: Mini Review: Twelve Minutes - A Tedious Time Loop That Squanders Its Potential

Quick reminder to people who don't understand the low score: This is a Nintendo website. The reviewer is reviewing a game which he played on a Nintendo Switch with the switch controller. Not a keyboard and mouse.

Many of you here may be too young to remember when companies thought it was okay to just port Point & Click games directly to consoles with no concessions for controllers. But I do, and let me tell you. With that 4 out 10, he is, if anything too lenient simply on the grounds that we must never EVER let people think that practice can EVER return.

The fact that this game in particular is based entirely on a timer makes it even MORE egregious. I've never enjoyed that sort of thing even on PC.

Re: Capcom Reveals The Most Used Weapon In The Monster Hunter Rise Demo

Kind of Surprised to see Horn beat Hammer and Dual Blades for the third spot. No surprises about the top two though. LS has always been probably the most popular weapon in the franchise and it looks even better here, and retains the cool Iai slash form from World (or possibly further back, my last MH before World was 3rd.)

Not at all surprised to not see any of the ranged weapons or Chargeblade feature. That last one took me over three days of research to work out.
