Celeste is amazing and the pressure to top it just can be crushing at the indie level. I dunno how anyone delivers a follow-up project to something like that especially these days when expectations are so high.

Well that guy needs locked up. I have actually heard of SMAP too, mostly cause of KimuTaku.

It was basically essential. And to be honest, that’s why I loved Nintendo growing up as our GameCube library was playable on Wii, which was then playable on Wii U. And of course DS games were playable on 3DS (had a DSi so no GBA games for me)

It sounds stupid but this series has been legitimately worse since the jump to Switch. Rune Factory 4 is the pinnacle of farming games and the more 3D gameplay just irritates and makes all facets of gameplay infinitely more annoying. It’s OK for games to remain top down, we don’t need to make every single series a third person behind the shoulder game. Stick to your strengths!!!

One of the best things about the community is the love they pour into projects like Pretendo. The PS2 servers are brilliant too. It’s surely the greatest compliment that people still want to play your games.

The Third Age and Return of the King on the Cube are bangers. Never really could get into the Lego game though, as much as I love Lego games.

Yep it’s real. Nintendo wouldn’t even respond if it wasn’t.

I would have liked actual triggers on the Joy-Cons personally.

I have both a Wii and PS3 Les Paul as well as a Wii World Tour guitar. The PS3 one is infinitely easier to connect to PC but the Wii discs are where I played the games first so I have a lot of nostalgia for these controllers with the big Wiimote window.

I played this for the first time a couple months back and enjoyed it for the most part. Bit crazy difficult in places and not as good as the first two but still a solid game. Soundtrack’s decent too.

Kelvingrove! Always nice to see local artists get a shout out, we have a rich history after all.

This looks brilliant. Also excited for Mario in the Multiverse. There’s a whole world of mods out there and some are genuinely brilliant.

@Daniel36 I lost my last shred of patience when the cat that had been in 3 whole games suddenly became a catgirl with feelings for the protagonist. Baffling.

This is where it would be very nice to have a female writer on staff, but we just get male opinions written into articles like this instead. I’m astounded that it’s not been addressed.

Wow they’ve completely stripped the soul from it. I get they want to homogenise the series but Sky’s a time capsule for a certain era of anime visuals which has aged really well. If they ‘update’ the script with the modern Trails writers it’ll end up an embarassing goonfest too, Cold Steel is such a colossal drop in quality.

@Jprhino84 Apparently it’s worthy of being removed by mods anyway. So any genuine discussion is over.

@Jprhino84 …no? I like Skyward Sword, I just think it’s an odd decision to exclude the name of the game in the headline and it results in a clunkier turn of phrase.

Definitely AI generated, the blurbs for the game are too. Funded by cryptobros. NLife do your job.

They let absolute crap on the eShop so there has to be more to this.

SegaLife strikes again!

Two things can be true people, Nintendo can overreach in terms of their intellectual property and the devs can also be egregiously unoriginal!

@WhensDinner Because of a buyout. The site is British, run by British folks. The writer’s bloody British too.

I take more umbrage with the word heck than anything else. This is a British site.

@Mommar Winter 2025 also refers to Jan/Feb. Technically Winter is more at the start of the year than the end after all.

In the most loving way possible, this is going to make a lot of Autistic people happy.

Should have went for the original title during development - Mario and Luigi: Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Unbridled Libido

I guess it wouldn’t be anime without rape jokes being aimed at children! The stuff in the Trails games is such a black mark on an otherwise excellent series. But ultimately all it needs to be is classified from the outset, if it gets an 18+ rating for that content then so be it.

It’s only natural to have a bit of a Doronko Wanko after a few beers with the lads.

It’s a publicity stunt. Dear Lord that’s pathetic.

It’s just crazy to me personally, to get Mario 64 running increasingly better on a GBA of all things. They’ve been pushing it for years in terms of ROM hacks and the like but nothing of this scale.

They sooooo need to bring this back. Bond is perfect for the style of the series (at least the only slapstick style before voice acting). I don’t care if it’s not big with kids, Lego games by this point are over 20 years old and hit more than one demographic.

Looks like a rip off of Mighty No 9

@MJF It’s probably one of about a million moments from the movie that would make a cool avatar!

@Dee123 Slurs didn’t even cross my mind, just off colour jokes. There are few things that make my blood boil as much as the f slur, and the way it’s still weaponised.

@rvcolem1 Whereas having the Switch in handheld mode next to my bed keeps me up!

@rvcolem1 Honestly the opposite for me, can’t imagine how awkward controls wise a lot of the staple puzzles would be and the DS features actually resulted in some of the most inventive puzzles in the series.

While I do prefer the 2D Layton games (and Ace Attorney) I do quite like the artstyle in this one. Hope the puzzles are good.

And this is why I’m called the incredibly uncontroversial ‘Jimmy Sceptile’

It’s a pointless endeavour but they have to at least look like they’re chasing pirates.

At least in the UK this game was insanely popular. Basically everyone had it. The soundtrack is a complete blast of nostalgia.

I guess it’s only original series games but I’d like to see GX Dual Academy return, I do enjoy that game.

@Bolt_Strike You’ll never get through to them. It’s a cult-like mentality where nobody wants to admit they might possibly have backed a psychotic horse. Starts at ‘don’t assume we’re all evil’ level fake floating voters to them slowly spouting more and more hateful rhetoric until they’re entirely indistinguishable from the true believers.

Spin round into Tate and flip screen! Handheld foldable screens are much more common thanks to those phones, that way you can transport it easier if it’s foldable.

This took a while to click but oh my god when it clicks it clicks. Immaculately designed. Up there with the games of the year for sure. Definitely a fun platinum on PS5.

@Ulysses That implies that the 3D presentation would look more impressive than DS graphics which in Game Freak’s case just isn’t so.

@Jokerwolf There is zero chance that new remakes would be better than HeartGold/SoulSilver.

Don’t promote this. Man with gambling addiction succumbs to triggers. This site really can be scummy sometimes.
