Maybe that’s the reason Nintendo didn‘t give us folders. I am struggling to sort my my games on PS and 3DS since a couple of years now and find myself rearranging them ever so often
Concerned Ape made a game he loves to play himself and is constantly working to improve it, and will probably continue to do so until he deems it perfect, meaning he’ll probably never stop. So becoming rich in the process is such good thing and makes me respect him much more, than i could envy him. Since Stardew Valleys release it is constantly in the charts, it is just a incredible success story. And with the simple graphics, aging will not be a problem at all, even more so if he keeps on releasing giant free updates and upgrades. Recently i have tried to get back into the almost a decade old, back then, critically acclaimed “Harvest Moon a new beginning” and let me assure you guys, It definitely didn’t age that well. So yes, Stardew took that crown. Long live the King!
@LinkSword who reviews the reviewers Now that it’s on sale and thanks to your comment i gave it a go, and must say i like it quite much. I have no problems with the controls at all and i like the humour and gameplay mechanics. Sure it might not be for everyone, but with that huge discount, i’d give it a huge recommendation!
@Falito well i don‘t want to actually own it, since games are, like music or movies, work of art, and as such should belong to its creators, but they could expand the license to at least a second switch, and therefore make me buy one
We really don‘t know much, but i know for a fact, that if i am allowed to download my purchases to a second Switch without buying them again, i will definetively go and buy one or two or even three more!
Much respect to Spoony and Gaz, how long does it even take to ramp up those kind of points!? And how do you stay focused that long!!?? My score is mostly based on luck. The update really made this game playable again for me, with only 30fps at full speed the ball disappeared half of the playfield sometimes. In docked mode though, it seems to me, it doesn’t quite reach the 60fps. I‘d love a stern pinball tournament but Farside although implementing smooth gameplay from the start and now also tate-mode is far behind in that matter
@Damo you‘re right Sega is still the property right owner of Shenmue, and Shibuya and Sony were given the license. My bet is, all will be available on the switch at some point. Let’s say 2020?
I had it on Wii, but couldn’t get over shooting native americans in this game. It made me feel bad and so i never played it again.
Am i the only one having a problem with that?
Or am i confusing it with Wild West Guns..?
I really loved the spotlight! Mario Odyssey's possessing enemies and items surprised me big time, Pokémon RPG had me chearing and Metroid Prime 4 😭 .. you know...😊 leaving me with a very positive feeling for Nintendo's and therefore our future (if we make it;). I actually don't need any footage of Metroid, come on, we all know it is going to be gorgeous and incredibly good and i would actually prefer not to see any spoilers until it finally comes out in about 2 years or so.. Time to replay the Trilogy and the upcoming 3DS Metroid
Oh and that first DLC Pack for Zelda coming in 2 weeks is also something i am looking very forward to!
The other reveals, i didn't care for at all..
Beyond Good & Evil 2 was not announced during the Sony press conference..so it could be at least a timed exclusive for Nintendo, like almost 15 years ago. And Mario+Rabbids looks surprisingly good!
Between the Game Boy Advance and the DS there was the Advance SP which had the genuine Innovation of a backlight which finally gave the opportunity of playing all the old and new games in darkness, it also was the first having a built in rechargeable battery and you could close it to a truly portable size and hereby protect your screen..
imo N is doing everything right this time. Coming december will be really big. i mean like reeeeaaaaaly big! Fire Emblem is already within the top 100 of the highest grossing, so my guess would be that those who hold on to their stock a little longer will be rewarded big time in about a year or so..
In europe it is not only number one in free downloads, but also number one in highest-grossing. I like this game very much, the controls are perfect, the challenge of getting all the black coins is tough, and my phone suddenly feels like a Nintendo product.
Funfact: I was planing on downloading it some time later because i haven't even played through all the other courses yet, but when I looked it up on the eshop, i saw one of the courses is 'New Zendling' and i immediately thought of the district in Munich, Germany I grew up called 'Sendling', which is one of the 4 districts surrounding the Oktoberfest, and which has a bit of a cult status because of its early hip hop and street art culture since the 80ies. I knew Shin'en was based in Germany, but could it be, that they are actually based in my hometown? So i looked it up, and they are actually based in Munich, but in 'Neuried' which is right next to Sendling. 'Neu' in english is 'new' and if you want people around the world to pronounce Sendling right, you have to write Zendling. So i couldn't resist downloading it at once, to see if there were any landmarks i would recognize, and in fact it reminded me of my hood in the year 2121 It is a great game already, but now i have to support it even more!
What if it isn't really the controllers which are detachable, but the screen? What if the screen could be your smartphone or your tablet (IosX : NX first) or your TV, using the WiiU as a hub for those who own it and an actual hub for those who don't? What if you could use this controller not only for exclusive content, but also for the majority of existing app/android store games? To me it all starts to make sense now! @rjejr #78 @JaxonH #79 @3MonthBeef #117
This is actually the worst Solitaire game out there, because it doesn't really shuffle the cards. It happend to me twice already, that the cards came out in the exact same order. So 2 in 1 is way better!
I feel sorry for those who wont give it a try, just because others wont. It is a very well crafted game, with nice graphics, controls and astonishing sound, especially when played with headphones. FYI I started with Metroid Prime on Gamecube. I prefer playing it solo, but also have tried out online, where you'll have to wait a bit to find someone because of the fact that not very much people own it. But I'm pretty sure, everyone who owns it, likes it. It it quite possible, that offering Blast Ball previously for free, was a bad move, which made even more people turn their backs on it, because IMHO Blast Ball is a pretty stupid game. Federation Force is a great game though, and actually i will play it again right after writing this although i have an enormous count of alternatives.
