Switch ticked off many wanted games including ones I didn't think would be on the system (Destroy all Humans, Stubbs the Zombie), but I have others I'd like to see, Endless Ocean, Geist, Eternal Darkness and some Ouya titles like No Brakes Valet and Amazing Frog.
This is the biggest letdown I've ever had with a game. I don't understand the hype. I hope they go back to a traditional Zelda, but fix the exploration
@HOUSE how about Madden on switch. It is ridiculous that switch is this popular and old and the only football options are retro bowl and mutant football league. Both are great
Have to say I've had the most issues with this game than others when it comes to crashes. I am still progressing and have had at least 3 times the game was supposed to load, but had a black screen and had to be reset. The most recent time was right after I defeated a difficult boss, it didn't save any progress and I couldn't save afterwards. Ugh.
@eltomo the US flea markets have been tough last few years. Either crap (sports games like Madden) or ebay prices or absolutely nothing. It's good to find a game store that has a good selection and good prices. Here's hoping you are able to go to one soon.
@Jhena They are like Kickstarter for videogames. You preorder your game and will receive it 6-12 months later. Let's just say still I'm still waiting on the physical version for KotOR for Switch.
Hard to say for me. I have the original Steel Battalion with original controller, the Vectrex, Coleco Telstar Arcade and two copies of Fire Emblem on GameCube CIB.
@EarthboundBenjy They do it this way as it creates more hype/buzz in the later months. If they released this game complete, it would quickly become not talked about. This method makes the game more relevant for a longer period. (I'm not saying I agree or not, but this is the reason why Nintendo would do this)
@Darknyht yea I knew the VB came out in 95 due to the N64 being delayed. I always linked snes to GBC with one another, I think because of the super game boy
@FRED_KID I'm assuming the op is referring to a term that is used with Native Americans. Strong belief that Natives started scalping, but some possibilities state Europeans could have introduced it to them.
Dec 3rd 2001, was a rough day. I recall going store to store for Melee and all saying it would arrive tomorrow. No one had it on the 3rd, even though in it was it's release date. (Stores claimed that's when it shipped). I was able to get it on the 4th easily.
@Captain_Toad I played Phantasy Star IV when it was new and really enjoyed it. I beat it and it is one of my favorites. I still haven't played PS 1-3, but still really enjoy IV.
@nocdaes Most Nascar tracks are loops, but they are different. Some are small 1 mile or even smaller like Bristol and Darlington. Others are road tracks which include many different turns. Resctrictor plate tracks like Daytona and Talladaga feature all the cars bunched up and easily going over 200mph.
@TKundNobody Your comment seems harsh, but fair. I like genesis and those games are great, but I own the genesis collection on switch, so there isn't really anything new. I also own the castlevania and contra collections. If they had some sega cd games like sonic cd and eternal champions then that would be interesting.
@WoomyNNYes Do you use Netflix, Hulu or other streaming services? You pay more using those and don't own the movies. Could always pick up a used Nintendo 64 too.
I brought my 3DS to Disney World a few times. Unfortunately when I did go there was a small maximum amount of street pass hits you could get. Every day I would hit the maximum from all over the world.
Looking forward to this and Hot Wheels. This looks like a nice blend of Crusin' and Excite Truck. I've been looking at steering wheels/pedals to go with these, does anyone have any recommendations?
@CivilMadman I would say yes. TWEWY on DS is a great game. This looks like it may have similar enemies and location, but gameplay will be different. The dual screens were used very well for combat (which is why it was awkward on the switch.)
