@Asaki on 3DS they have to be installed on console to be played!

also, i think shantae isn't on the list because it's been ported by now

@SNESDisney if they won't push it, i will, because this is absurd--do you read books exclusively for the technical skills exhibited by the author? do you watch movies only for the filmmaker's skills? you could just as easily argue a story is a useless vessel for both of those things, and it would ring the exact same way as what you're saying. acting like games should only exist for the sake of gameplay is asinine and a ridiculously constrictive worldview--the game literally has "Legend" in the title, are you expecting the story not to be a focus? do you think RPG players are playing for the gameplay alone?

get off of your backseat game design chair, wipe off the glasses so rosy-tinted they're practically pink diamond at this point. i couldn't care if one game is better than the other (and I agree "best game" pissing matches are ridiculous, but that is literally any fanbase on anything with sequels), but story informs both the pacing and structure of both of these games, to act like it's just background information is insanely disingeuous

"when your personal bias/bitterness/jealousy/favoritism starts meddling with reality" people talk about the games they like? people like the aspects of the games they like? you're acting like your opinion is some Objective One True Truth About Video Gaming when it's just as much a throwaway opinion as any other in this comment section, why the high horse?

did anyone else forget how...atrociously little space there is on the 3DS for DSI games? sheesh, i'm barely fitting 10 games on here

think the headline/video title here is a little ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as having a meltdown over someone thinking majora's mask is better than OOT (let alone giving someone the business for having an emotional attachment to a game, which literally everyone who plays games has had at least once)

for what it's worth, they're both fine games, they just do different things. both are still better than wind waker by virtue of not having a needlessly tedious overworld

@SNESDisney this must've been building up for a while, huh

@SwitchForce ...you're expecting people to finish a 100+ hour game which numerous reviewers have complained that their keys arrived way too late for them to see in full? if someone eats 80% of a pizza in front of a waiting crowd, gets full, and says it's good, it's not un-credible that they didn't have the last two slices

people want to see games reviewed before they come out/reviewers have deadlines, either get over it or critique the structure rather than the players in it

something something "But the comment section said they hated eachother"

@BongoBongo123 i think undead storm got a 3DS sequel as well

@ChromaticDracula you'd be shocked how much ribbing i got from a friend for having a very turtle-y style playing through 3, even though it's the safest bet 9 times out of 10, lol

@OldManHermit i think, when the difficulty is uncompromising, the player can make compromises, which is why there's such an emphasis on the benefits of cooperation with the phantom system (both players and npcs) and whatnot

I thought thanatos was already announced at wonfes or whatever a couple weeks ago

@HammerGalladeBro @CharlieGirl i can't help but be sad they scrubbed all the charm/ducks from the original guru logi champ with it, but the puzzle core is still solid

i've heard Art Style: BOXLIFE is also one of the best Art Style titles

@Eel I always wanted Petit Computer as a kid, maybe now's the time to grab it--if I remember right, you could share games/programs from it, is that still a thing?

@jojobar do you expect them to make a new style and just not use it? again, I still don't particularly care for how it looks, but I think a better way of framing it is that the style gets more normalized than uninteresting, which is most likely the goal. I doubt Square Enix is planning on selling HD-2D on novelty alone for the rest of its existence, so they have to legitimize it first

@Grumblevolcano feel like some of the charm in Mario RPG would be lost if it went from isometric + rendered to HD-2D's weird 3D environments
@jojobar while I agree that it's a real blow to the artstyles of the games it's put on (see Live a Live's sprites getting additional animation), I would hardly say 4 games is "oversaturated"; if anything it seems like it's starting to get into its groove now that it doesn't have the egregious bloom/lighting that makes everything look encased in amber/vaseline like in Octopath

@Preposterous a minifigure would have a face at least, i guess. you'd think they'd have at least put some black tiles/bricks for the korok

@shineget64 capcom will sooner shutter than let her get a new one

and it won't get made, like every other zelda thing that has made it to the final round and burned up?

not trying to be too pessimistic but it's hard to keep rooting for failure, still cool looking however

@Zorox88 this is one of those comments where it's like, why even post it, you know it's going to get deleted, you know nobody is going to agree with you, are you just venting about how sweet child abuse is? what?

@UmbreonsPapa appreciate someone in these comments willing to call it like they see it

i just want to play mysterious murasame castle on my tv already

@Mr_Fox this is kind of what i thought was so weird about this article, even if it's written in a sympathetic tone, it still feels like something that we shouldn't be seeing

@blindsquarel what exactly is being stolen if it wasn't a potential sale and the physical game the copies are made from was already bought; what dragonstar was saying was "it hurts nobody's bottom line if there wasn't going to be a purchase in the first place"

there have been various papers debunking your line of thought

i'd say more for JP exclusives like the taiko 3DS titles or the numerous untranslated dragon quests

@noobish_hat i didn't find it that bad when i played? mind you, that was a good 4 or 5 years ago at this point but

@Magician that entire situation is terribly sad and people approach it with an absolute 0 sense of nuance or tact and it drives me insane, regardless, i do hope the comment section doesn't devolve into only talking about it (would you look at that it's devolving into both things I said here woweeee)

@Matty1988 you're not the only one who feels that honestly, it's very much a "if you don't gel with the characters the game doesn't work" game

@SwitchForce the first part of your comment is kind of proving the second part, are we making Gary Bowser conspiracy theories now?

it's a pretty strong game. never resonated with me as much as it did some others but the story itself was swell and i liked all the main cast well enough (though I do wish angus got a little more time to cook)

hoping this comment section can stay this positive

@BiscuitCrumbsInMyBed he (potentially) hurt a company's bottom line, which is the biggest crime against god or man to both the US justice system and some commenters

this feels...weird. this is a weird article

@Specter_of-the_OLED final fight revenge would definitely be the street fighter 1 of a potential 3D compilation lol

i didn't have much faith in atlus to make a soul hackers sequel and i was 100% right from the looks of it, have to echo the sentiments of those saying this looks like TMS#FE/digimon cyber sleuth and i don't know how much i can trust the story to be a knockout after SMTV was decidely middling

i saw a baffling amount of people complaining this didnt have mvc2 (along with other similar out of place picks like power stone and rival schools) in it which, barring the legal issues, is a series with enough games for its own collection and would be remarkably out of place on a collection of games no higher than CPSIII

@Edd-O physical is already confirmed

@RBRTMNZ we must have played different games then!

@sanderev "improvement" is subjective here

@NintendoEternity you sound absurd sometimes man

@TanukiTrooper right? i'm baffled at the amount of customization people want, i think making something limited look like yourself is one of the best exercises in creativity and the plain-ness was always one of their charms

@HeadPirate @RubyCarbuncle

@GamerDad66 he's the owner of a games store, that sells games, I think it's pretty understandable that he would be excited about finding games to sell at his games store that I can literally take a bus to right now. calling him a "hipster parasite" is just not knowing what the deal here is, plain and simple

i'm decently sure the store has issues staying afloat on retro games alone (they sell DVDs/Blurays and some other electronics now which always weirds me out) so it's both a cool find and a good way to keep a retro store from crashing and burning. it's like the dudes who find earthbound CIB at Goodwill or whatever, it's a big case of "man I wish that was me, cool find!"

@UglyCasanova $20 is full price to you? that's less than I paid for a NIB copy of the ps1 game shrinkwrapped ($25, for reference), and that didn't even come with Radical Dreamers

@HolyGeez03 also plugging sportsball, it was surprisingly one of my most played wii u games

@marcelominucelli or at least work in costumes for chrissake, it's not like the feature isn't already in the game

at the end of the day i'm playing mario kart for how it feels more than the luscious scenery i'm zooming past, it was more of a nicety than anything that MK8 looked as good as it did

@Not_Soos i'd classify a lot of MM3D hate in the "vocal minority that watched a youtube video decrying it once" category that hits a lot of maligned games

fun fact about this joint, used to be a place named Gamers, before it was (seemingly?) bought out and the owner of what used to be Gamers tried to steal a bunch of PS4s and whatnot from what was no longer his store and sell them

their main location is where I got my New 3DS from back when it was still Gamers, so it's surprising to see they just unpacked all this right next to me (let alone see a business from Omaha on a european website about nintendo news)

@dew12333 google is free https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_Game_History_Foundation

aw man, this means the excellent DLCs for smtiv and apocalypse are going too, huh

i liked Ketzal's Corridors and EscapeVektor a lot as a kid, basically anything they plugged on nintendo video was sure to be at least "alright" (including Tokyo Crash Mobs), i'll have to take a peek at my 3DS later for more EDIT Kersploosh!/Splash and Crash for sure as well!

forest of illusion is doing god's work

i'd appreciate it if they brought soul hackers and devil summoner to switch unaltered, but translated, but that's hoping too much

@N00BiSH the story is good, but the gameplay takes some getting used to, even as a (modern, admittedly) smt fan

the magnetite system, where demons you have summoned use a secondary form of currency, in particular is grueling

feels some sort of way to have put more time on my 3ds than everyone combined

@icomma switchforce kind of tends to talk nonsense with lots of bold font to make it seem less like nonsense if you haven't noticed yet

i'm sure many of the people who played shovel knight, or any other kickstarter game on here, have given money directly to the makers of the game :V
