Right?
While not hideous,
It has certainly taken away from my desire to play this new Awakening..
It's also strange to me how well people have taken to this new style compared to WW's.. :
It wasn't pretty either, but at least it showed so much more personality..
Needless to say,
One Loz in the "lego / funko" style is more than enough ..
If they're going to continue with it, please keep it far away from the main games..
:/
To me, the first pass was a huuuuge disappointment..
A few of the characters were alright, but none of them were truly exciting enough to warrant the purchase.
While I'm almost certain I'll enjoy pass 2 more than I did the first, I'm going to buy them individually this time around.
Lesson learned. :l
You'd think they'd offer a nice discount or toss in the Mii costumes for those who buy blind..
I've neglected my Smash copy
(especially the spirit board portion)
And don't get to follow the news as often these days..
Do special spirits make a return eventually, are they included in major software updates,
or did I miss my chance completely?
I didn't learn about the Resident Evil set until only recently.. :/
update
The way I'm reading it..
Dlc ones are the sets tied to their respective characters, correct? "Persona,FE,Banjo,FF.." ?
These are the only exclusive ones?
It was a fine concept overall,
but the younger crowd kinda ruined the experience..
I didn't have much luck when I actually found myself in need of serious answers ..
Hated being notified about updates only to find It's just 2randos who've obviously mistaken miiverse for tinder..
and the grammar there! GOOD GRIEF!
*I swear I almost had a taste of what it's like to be dyslexic!
-
I'm in the camp that believes Ninty ought to be focusing efforts on expanding the Switch's interface,
it's so barebones compared to the much more ancient, 3ds.
Badly in need of social support,
(preferably a Miitomo 2 >.> )
or toss in a Swapdoodle port!
-
And I'm probably in the minority here, but a few games aside..
WiiU was the better console -imo
Definitely enjoyed it more than I am with the Switch so far.. :/
Having said all that.....
I would probably give Miiverse a second chance if it made a comeback..
While I greatly prefer 2nd/3rd parties in general..
I have to wonder why Paper Mario never became a thing..
Think of the assist & FS possibilities that come with the Star powers and sidekicks!
Then we have FE..
There's more to it than sword users...
( never forgiving them for Lucina..)
While on the topic of FE..
Why can't Link be a cross-over dlc unit?
You have Calvary, Swordsman, Archer with potential to morph into Beast form (Wolf Link)
Who WOULDN'T WANT LINK?!
Anyone who grew tired of Miitomo was clearly using it all wrong or sadly didn't have the good fortune of finding the right group of people to play with.
Horribly underrated, imo.
I've mentioned it several times on this site in the past..
This game was a Godsend for RPs & Writers in many ways!
But even at its core, as someone who enjoys captions, dress up, & being stupid with friends..
The loss of this app was such a devastating blow, personally.
I feel this game would have been perfect as a streetpass game, and can see how it can be abused..
Still.. How neat would it be to have it revived on the switch?
I can't express just how much joy it would bring me if they released a follow up to Tomodachi life..with Miitopia & Miitomo elements.
At the very least, letting us hold on to it to play offline would be enough ..
I would say it's closer to Nintendogs in that you're able to pet, feed, dress, and play with them.
Now if only they could integrate animal crossing levels of interior decoration..
It's enjoyable but gets repetitive FAST!
I can think of several dozens of simple improvements they could have made..
A major gripe is wanting to have a bit more control/influence over their relationships,
rather than leaving everything to chance.
And after losing Miitomo (which had some wonderful features along with vastly superior wearables)
It's difficult going back to this outdated thing..
I'm keeping my fingers crossed in hopes we're treated to a meatier sequel one day.
Likewise for Miitopia...
The way I see it, it's more of a polished remake of the WiiU smash than a "New" game..though I'll admit, I can't make a fair judgment on it until I've played the final product for myself.
So far, the changes weren't drastic enough to excite me so...I'll probably be able to sit this one out until there's dlc or price drop.
Personally, I would have preferred entirely new characters & features over micro enhancements.
Maybe I'm wrong.. -shrugs-
On a final note:
Port, Remake, New ??- Technical terms aren't important, what matters is that fans are content with the product itself.
This is a slap to the face to those of us who truly cared for the game..
It may have been a dumb silly app for most folks (&I don't blame em,it was flawed in many ways)
but to me...
it was a wonderful way of watching my characters come alive.
Although I was fortunate enough to have found some quirky folks to play with from day 1, what really kept me coming back were the features themselves.
I don't know how many people realized just how well the app doubled as a character development tool.
Questions aside,
With miifotos, I could recreate favorite scenes.
The clothes, possibly the most beloved feature for many Mitomo fans & with good reason!
We had a whole plethora of cute/cool items to play with. (EVEN IF THEY WERE A ROYAL PAIN TO COLLECT!)
But really,
what I'll miss most,
is hearing them speak in their unique TTS voices.
[using the catchphrase input]
My sisters & I spent many weeks 'conversing' with & role playing our OCs.
Leading to plenty of laughs & ideas for the main 'book'.
-Something I've never done before, which not only brought us closer together, but has also inspired them to join in on the project.
I'm still devastated over this loss that I admittedly cried following the death of our sidekicks.
(it didn't help that it gave out on us during a more sentimental scene..)
We were able to squeeze another week out of it by simply leaving the app open with airplane mode on.
I was almost willing to replace my new phone just to be able to hold on a bit longer..
which I fortunately didn't, since the phone ended up restarting itself anyway.
I seriously hope we'll get to see a successor one day,
*Why couldn't they leave us with an offline version....
One of the few games I've been looking most forward to.. only to have my hopes shattered like this.
I'm still bitter about Gyakuten No Kenjis, PLEASE don't let me miss out on my hero (Sherlock) too! D':
Doesn't matter if it brings up plot-holes, awkward or not so punny translations, as long as we get to join in on the adventure, NOW GET TO IT, CAPCOMS!! >___<

Re: Latest Animal Crossing: New Horizons Merch Confirms New And Returning Characters

But what we need are more Dragons & Unicorns!
On a somewhat random and unrelated note..
Unless I'm mistaken,
In ACNL, Harv- the hippy
was the only animal to NEVER receive a pic..
Was this intentional?
Did they forget?
Or was it never explained how to unlock?
(I could not find any info on how to get it; I assumed it would relate to purchases, but so far - nothing..)
My dog photo collection is incomplete without him! Dx

From most to least desired:
1. Leon Kennedy

3. Rayman + Rabbids
4. Paper Mario/Luigi & sidekicks/star powers
5. Amaterasu (Honestly would have preferred WolfLink)
Ephraim is the only FE character I am willing to forgive, should they decide to go that route again..

just ..no..
Re: Gallery: A New Batch Of Lovely Animal Crossing: New Horizons Screens For Your Viewing Pleasure
I haven't been following this game too closely..
But so far I'm getting camp/naturey vibes...
Which I find disappointing..
I was hoping it would go in the city folk direction and really EXPAND on it..
I'm talking about being able to build
Carousels, Ferris wheels,
Manage and decorate hotels (more rooms!)
and shops (malls)
Meanwhile...
I have yet to see anything truly "new"
Surely they have new animals, right? ...
Hopefully they're saving something big to surprise us with-closer to launch..
But "Eh"...this is Nintendo..
I'm used to being let down by now ..

Almost considered buying a 360 just for this game, good thing I put it off for so long!
