So I have been playing MM3D lately and it has slow down quite a bit. And I've played Echoes and Links Awakening also, clocked like 100 in there and other than the swamp in LA, never had anything so noticable as MM3D has been. Just a dip here and there.

I don't think we should settle for poor performance but to me it just feels like maybe we are just more aware?

Also funny that they are both Grezzo. And to give it its best shot I've been playing on a "new" 3DS

The FOMO is there for me, wanting to have the new system but Im just not excited enough about any of the software that's been announced.

A new Zelda has usually been what gets me to upgrade to the new system, so I guess when they announce one of those I'll upgrade.

@WhiteTrashGuy I would, that's what I did with my OLED. Can't even tell it's there. Especially since their protector isn't like "replaceable" since it's a manufacturers protector.

All else fails, go check out Jerry Rig Everything's video when it comes out, or even check out his OLED review right now. He puts the tech through it's paces.

Never got to try chibi robo, so id be interested in reading a review for this one.

Super lame for those affected but I agree with the assessment already shared, I didn't think anyone was asking for a remake. The original was already a looker, as was impossible lair, adding new lighting and textures is cool, but not as cool as a new game.

Im excited about the accessibility of GameCube games, I just wish they put in some effort to make em all wide screen.

I don't know, hopefully by the time I get a switch 2 the GameCube catalogue will be crazy with XD and maybe even the GC version of twilight princess.

@rvcolem1 even though no one asked you aren't wrong

I love the idea of other M but man I couldn't get through it. The pacing was so slow and the story was just killing me haha. I probably made it like 2 or 3 hours in before calling it quites. Still on my shelf but it was a difficult one.

Not sure if I'm the only one, but nothing on this list gets me super jazzed about investing. I was hoping to see something maybe I missed but nope.

I hope the Mario Kart world reviews just knock me outta my chair and make me see it's a worth while expense!

@DarthXenos my only concern using it outside of GC and smash Bros is that the button layout is different, so sometimes it's super weird. Like playing SNES with a GC controller is a nightmare.

Per some suggestions on the site I've picked up Chrono trigger again after about a month off. I'm a little confused from the time away but I'm sure it'll come back to me.

I also had a coworker recommend I go back to Echoes of wisdom since I didn't like it. Just beat another dungeon with the Gorons. I forgot how hand holdy it is but I did learn I can use the water block to drown anything, so that's a fun strat.

@speed_loafer thanks for the tip, hadn't seen that email.

Even though I might not get it at launch, I much prefer the guarantee and security of ordering through my Nintendo.

@N00BiSH I've never had a controller that uses them but I could see me using it for run in BOTW or TOTK, since you lose camera control unless you claw grip.

I remember going onto the my Nintendo store and it lets you kid of do that, but it just puts together a kart of all the full joy con sets you'd need. So instead of it costing $350 it's like $500.

Neat to see them do it, just wish it was more widely available.

I have a full family for NSO membership and I think we all pay for it just for the classic games. I can maybe see one or two of them wanting to do something like this, but I do not see myself using it.

Growing up I remember calling my friends on the phone and playing smash Bros brawl with the laggy Wii wifi. Those were the days.

@JaxonH aren't GL GR only on the pro controller and the charging grip? How would you use it with a loose joy con?

@Thomystic Thanks for the answer! K I'll pick it up again and give it til footsteps follow then!

Got a confession, feels like this is the crowd to admit this. I'm a little over 4 hours in and just dropped it one day. Like the writing is charming and the combat seems pretty standard RPG stuff to me. How long before I'm like wrapped up in the story? I feel scared to spoil anything for anyone reading who might not have played it like me, but I've made it to the crossroads or whatever it's called, the place outside of time.

I'm playing it on DS since it's cheaper but like I said it's not slapping me up the head like Earthbound or other RPGs have done.

I'm excited to see the poll tomorrow where it'll be like: did you get to preorder through Nintendo
Yes
No
Somewhere else
And yes will be a ghost town.
I'm honestly starting to wonder if they glitched or forgot to invite.

You know when they proposed this idea I thought it wasn't going to be like a lottery. But it sure feels like it now.

I feel like nothing good has ever come from trying to speak poorly of the competition. At least for the dealer of the dirt.

I don't want it.

I normally update right away but been on my 3DS this week and haven't touched it so far. Sounds like I should hold out til this blows over.

Yo what?? That's a cool game trial

@MirrorFate2 why not? I'd it like a GBA link cable thing?

I got my physical copy of sea of stars still sitting wrapped. That and the Ori games, looking sad next to each other. Ive tried starting other RPGs and Metroidvanias when I'm not in the mood and then I stop a few hours in and never return. Don't want that to happen with these, since they are so highly praised.

@1UP_MARIO what makes it worse? I can't tell the difference. I don't have the side by side but I remember everything working just fine.

@1UP_MARIO i thought that would be the case when I upgraded, and it's not the case at all. It works perfectly. I only have an OLED now and still use my labor VR.

I set up the widget cause I thought it would just pop up with the news and instead it's just a calendar that has the creepy BOTW great fairies on it.

The blaster is the only true VR I have. And I love it, it's about as much VR as anyone truly wants. Good for short play sessions, and you didn't sink a good $300 for something you'll probably hardly touch

Sounds easy enough to patch in.

Dude yes. I'm down, wind wakers sequels never felt near as good as the OG, I'd be thrilled. Cartoon Link could go for a brand new 3D outing. Doesn't need to be like so open world like BOTW but I just want to see it return.

I've only ever gotten 2 street passes in my whole life. Would be cool to get a firm, it'll happen if I go.

I always like reading these, but i admit I feel like it's better suited for a video format with just some highlights or topical clips going on whilst the talk is going on.

Still fun, don't stop but I do always feel it. Thought it might be worth sharing.

@StuDogg Odyssey is with the investment if you got the time, so well done.

I feel like I thrive off of limits in games so I'm cool with fall damage.

Well that was a very best case scenerio. Happy to hear!

Hum I see a lot of people comparing it to ARMS which makes it look way disappointing because ARMS had color and style, but I don't feel like this is the same.

To me this is just another Tech demo and ARMS was a new IP. I doubt any of these drag and drive characters even have names.

I like the clickie triggers. I remember back on GameCube the only time the triggers made sense to me was in sunshine. In Melee and other games I'd be confused that it received my input before I heard the click.

I don't really play other consoles so I've never "experienced" the joys of analogue triggers so I'm sure they exist.

@Axecon man something that I liked about the GC version was it felt like I was given all of my items and told "Now go use them on your quest!"

I get the same vibe on WiiU but it feels like it's over really fast. I am replaying the HD version right now so we'll see how I feel. If I get a switch 2 I'll have to compare notes against the original.

@Kiz3000 well I don't want to argue with you, but I am interested in hearing your case. What makes you feel like this is the best?

SNES had one of the greatest platformers as a pack in title. That's a tough bar to beat.

Reminds me of the people camping out in front of the sabre store in the office. Pretty sure they're just homeless.

@IronMan30 I played the first 2 chapters and not undertale and maybe there are a lot of references I'm missing, but it was completely understandable and fun for me.

I mean I didn't see Bowsers delivery but I think this is pretty normal. Nintendo says this like every generation. That they will continue to support the other console still.

@Axecon dude Air Ride is bomb. That was the best announcement of the direct. I'm excited to see more about it.

Well dang. I hope we hear back soon with what to expect. I'd like to so holding my breathe on what the damage will be. Feels like the market may need to look at the new system more as a "pro" console" since it'll be really hard for a lot of in the states to adopt.

I know that video games have been exempt from tariffs before, maybe they are chatting it up to get exempt again.

I would definitely use it for a run button in BOTW or TOTK cuz not being able to control your camera easily while running has always been lame. I've never owned a pro controller but I'm thinking it might be time.

Nice Zion! Way to bring up Mother 3! We'll convince em eventually!

Hey if that's the price across the board I think I will get Metroid Prime 4 on switch and pay for the upgrade eventually since I don't see me getting a switch 2 anytime soon.
