Thinking about the morph ball is like thinking about how mushrooms makes Mario bigger and smaller. It is a video game. Sometimes you need off the wall game play features to make the game more interesting and fun.
It will come when it comes. No point in adding to negativity and the I have to have it now culture. I grow up with patience. And in my 30s these last two years that is what gets me through. Not going fast to something but letting it play out how it will play out. The games will come you just have to wait. Or just buy a used n64 and games from a game shop or online place that has old games. And get a crt tv and just play them. It will be way more expensive but you can play them sooner if you really need the old game fix.
Who would have thought switch is holding its own still against a new gen. But there are a whole bunch of factors why it is succeeding. Including low stock of new gen cause if the pandemic. But soon Nintendo will have a 100 million selling system and still be putting out games like we are in year three next year.
This is the farthest thing from the doom felt in 2017 when people still had doubts.
Spider-Man 2 on GameCube was the game changer. That one was amazing. Sadly the best Spider-Man’s I played are on PlayStation now. And they are leagues above all the games on the list including my favorite from 17 years ago.
Maybe 10 years from now we will get the real definitive version. And that version will have grand theft auto 4 and 5 included. Hopefully they got their act together and all versions work. Of course by that time we are still waiting for news of gta 6 too.
All the recent usb c docks are 4K ready. It uses the new usb c standards today. Stop reading into this as switch pro. The switch successor, switch 2 or whatever it is called is where these rumors are probably for. Plus thanks to last year’s record sales and Covid that system is probably a year off now. So 2023 is the year they announce it and maybe even release it.
No thanks. I am happier with my more expensive but better featured rtx gaming laptop. I don’t know how to use Linux and a sd card is not going to work for me after using these fast SSD’s I have in my laptop. Sure the two more expensive models has that but a few games will take that space away quick. I suppose if you just want something to play steam games on and your laptop is not being updated in some years this works especially if you have used Linux devices.
But if you want to be closer to current I say get a new laptop for a few hundred more with a rtx GeForce graphics card. Or a series s. That works better and you get game pass. Plus it is easier to get than series x or ps5 right now. But switch is still good. Just wish Nintendo had more games coming this year but after last year getting one polished game beats having games that need ten updates just to have stable FPS or not crash every 10 minutes.
Technically they could made it $300 and they still would be making profit. But it is $350 and they can get away with that cause the switch is selling like crazy at its original price. This model probably would not sell well but thanks to the climate we are in it will probably sell out and stay sold out until sometime next if that.
I am still probably not getting this. The only Zelda games I rebought were ones I sold. So I got the 3ds Ocarina of time and wind waker on Wii U. Will be getting breath of the wild 2 though.
This could work if real. And it is starting to feel like E3 of old with leaks on leaks everyday. Then they will release a press release or show it at a conference.
I did like blockbuster. I got a n64 for Christmas of 98 with no games. So renting games was the only thing I could do for a few months until a birthday came up. I got to play some good games and some bad ones (Superman 64). It worked for the time but now since I am an adult I can get the games I want or wait until it comes on game pass.
And kids today have so many “free to play” games pretty sure they can wait for a birthday or until they get enough in allowance for something. So they were good times but the magic of the 90s is sadly stuck in the 90s. I do enjoy now though even with less options in certain places. But a whole lot more on your phone or other device.
I remember asking for this for Christmas but knowing I was not going to get it but somehow I did get it. I would have cherished it just for that but the stories it told were amazing. It is still close to my favorite Zelda if not still my probably my favorite. I do hope they really remake this. This and ocarina of time need modernized versions that change a few things and add mostly so gameplay features that would make them fit in with the things we are used to.
This is a character I wanted in the game. I did think it was going to be Rex though. And he would have blades including her help with attacks. But I suppose this works. I am thinking they might be saving something like this for the heroes in astral chain. That would be an unique fighter.
The super big 40+ minute ones are gone. Until COVID 19 is whatever under control looks like they can’t really promise a game will come out when it comes out. So they have to break it into pieces over the year. So news is better than no news to me.
@Pod they switched developers mid way. If the people who were first making it did it up to standards it would be coming this year. And they would have shown a trailer probably last year.
There is a sequel coming. Just finish it. That does reminds me of one thing. I have to still beat the final boss in spirit tracks. I have the save right before the last ride but somehow forgot to go back. I might have lost a few times and just played another game but I thing to finish it. That and two fire emblem games. Awakening and three houses. I am also on the last boss in those games. But to be fair with those two it is hard. No ones dead on my team and it seems the only way to win is to have someone die. And I am not having that. But I will try again.
China gets easily offended on things that seem less than to us. That is just the way it is. This could have just been avoided if someone did research before hand. Especially seeing how the franchise is a big one across Asia.
And also they are the biggest market for movies this year and next. So making sure it meets standards there is a bigger deal.
The closest thing to f-zero we got now is the two courses they added to Mario kart 8 6 years ago. And then again in Mario kart 8 deluxe. You would think with the success of those games they would at least try to at least do a hd remaster with online of the GameCube one. Sadly nothing.
I remember that time. I thought all the rumors were crazy. And I saw it and I was in disbelief. I knew my Wii U was not going to be supported but to replace it with a handheld console hybrid seemed crazy. Of course I love the system now and it is on the way to outselling ps4 in a year or two. That is just nuts.
I do hope Nintendo has bigger games ready for next year. It still feels like something else was coming out. But COVID 19 probably stopped whatever that would have been.
Ubisoft is horrible when it comes to leaks, they rarely can have a surprise cause we know about games days, weeks, or months ahead of events cause someone can’t honor their NDA. You would think they would fire these people and make an example out of one but it keeps happening.
Oh well. I would love to play this series again though. I loved the trilogy. And it has been like a gen since the last new game they made.
Stop trying to get us even a little excited for this franchise. Outside of smash and Mario kart 8 they forgot this even existed. They could give us a remaster of the GameCube game but they don’t even do that.
I already have the games for free. I only bought the first one back that was years ago on psn for $15 with all dlc. After that I got the first two games free on Xbox live. And this collection was free on plus some months ago. So unless you have only had Nintendo systems for all these years you may have got the borderlands games free already. This is why I am not buying borderlands 3. It will probably be free on everything next year.
But if you missed the games and have a crappy pc you can get this on switch. You should wait for a sale though. Cause like in two or three months this will be $20 or $30 on eshop.
You guys make it sound like this voice acting for the game is beneath her. They offered her the role again and she took it. She is in more roles but not on some unattainable level now.
I took advantage of this sale and got Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission. It is a pretty good one. And is packed with way more content then I thought it was. Makes me almost wish I got it last year. Oh well I have it now and I am enjoying it.
Even though the part cart part download thing is weird I still like they support the system. People may crap on the basketball game for mircotransactions but it. Is mostly the same game as the other systems. Not like EA that just sticks a new number on the fifa game and release it again. That is just awful.
Just go to a lobby. They are fun to me. And the only real problem I have with it is not being able to change characters when you want a rematch. That is a step back. But I still like the game even the online.
I wish they would remaster the sonic adventure games. When they sale like crazy maybe Sega will stop the we can’t and just make sonic adventure 3. Unlike most I like playing as other characters that are not sonic. So more knuckles and rogue for me.
I am beyond ok with this. If they have to wait months or to the fall I am ok it’s it. People’s health is the most important thing right now. So if anyone here can work from home do that. Cause unless your job is real crucial too saving lives or running the services we need during this time but to be safe.
With gyms becoming unsafe. And getting large exercise equipment probably harder this sounds like a easy indoor solution. I wish I would have got one. I might just though if I can find it in the next crazy weeks.
I never have been to E3 but seeing all the conferences and stage demos online was what I did that week. Nintendo has got us ready for this with their directs and treehouse demos. So hopefully even without the big show they can still put on something good. It does suck that people that worked that time and the city won’t get the boost it normally gets but that is a problem the whole planet is facing now. Hopefully this virus does stabilize and they can cure it but until then we are just going to have to get used to a few temporary normals.
They let the 101 go to platinum cause it didn’t do great and they have a good relationship with Nintendo. Astral chain is not going the same route. It is going good on both fronts. And it gives hope for a sequel. The first game still had a few unanswered questions.
Crash is definitely not the next character. I don’t see him going at all. Sure his biggest games are on switch and they sold good but he is not in. If they were going for him he would have made the original fighter pass.
I still think Dante is probably going to have one of the slots.
Epic is making crazy amounts of money off fortnite. Sure smash is bringing in money but not like that. And they are not the esports company. Sure pros want big money like they make in some other games but it is not happening at least not now. Seeing how Nintendo once with after mobile and is now making money on mobile they could change their minds one day.
I was going to buy this in Wii U era but somehow didn’t. Luckily when I got my switch last year I righted that wrong. But now I still need to finish the first part of the game.
Makes sense. They could have included a toned down mai in the back but seeing as he likes to keep characters as close as possible to their original games it makes sense not to add a toned down version in the back.
I am getting the game. I wanted to get it for Wii U but didn’t and they are adding new elements. So even with the weird censorship I am still in. Doesn’t really take away from the game unless you are really desperate to see anime girls a little unclothed.
