When my joy-con a were drifting, I decided to swap out the entire Switch shell. I was surprised by the large selection on Amazon by BASSTIO AND eXtremeRate. But of course, I only had one real option, nostalgia being what it is, I had to go with the atomic purple shell. Since that was the color of my Game boy Color back in the day.

Personally I didn't find the swap to be that difficult, but then again I am familiar with taking apart electronics. Swapping the plate on the back of the Switch itself is very easy. It only requires removing a few screws, and there is a metal sheet covering up the electronics underneath that plastic backing. The joycons themselves were a bit more difficult but weren't bad to replace.

@SwitchForce What are you talking about? The game that is this heavily inspired by Nights would definitely be appealing to the people that played Nights originally. And they would all be adults now.

And just because the game is not focused on violence doesn't necessarily mean it isn't a game adults would enjoy, and review poorly. Super Lucky's Tale is a game designed for a younger audience and it still reviewed well. Many Nintendo games are enjoyed and designed for both younger and older audiences.

@MarcusIsCool Me too. Except for the whole being able to speak multiple languages thing.

@MarcusIsCool Sadly there was a remake of both Dragon Warrior Monsters 1 and 2 for the 3DS, but for whatever reason they decided not to localize the games. So if you can speak Japanese you're good to go, otherwise you're out of luck. Also both versions of DWM2 were remade into one game.

Dragon Warrior Monsters 1 and 2 were two of my favorite GBC games.

@ReaperX That was my take away too. Pass on both of them and play Stardew Valley.

This was about what I expected from the game. You just need to look at the trailers for this game and for Rune Factory 5, and you can clearly tell that the developers didn't put nearly as much effort into this game. If I'm being honest, the announcement of an expansion pass for this game was a huge turnoff and warning sign for me.

It seems that Stardew Valley has maintained its crown. Which is good because there is still plenty of content from the latest free update that I haven't experienced yet.

Hopefully, Rune Factory 5 will have a much better showing.

@Zach777 It's nice when developers are honest with us.

I could never get into Animal Crossing. I think it's a combination of the art style and real time nature of the game. I'll stick with Stardew Valley.

The demo of Balan Underworld was terrible. Going from the well done cutscenes to the flat gameplay just makes the game look terrible. Not to mention how bad the movement and level design is.

I had an atomic purple GameBoy Color (translucent purple) and a glacier GameBoy Advance (translucent blue) back in the day. So a few months ago, when my joy-con started drifting, I decided to replace the joysticks. I figured, while I have the joycons apart, I may as well swap out the shells. Of course, my only real option was to make my Switch atomic purple, just like my old GameBoy Color.

@Richardwebb I think it's something that you'll notice more when the game is scaled up to a bigger screen.

This is a very easy decision to make; either a game made by a soulless company, a game made by a different slightly less soulless company, or a game made by a passionate man. The winner is clearly Stardew Valley.

The fact alone that these two games both have expansion passes; meanwhile Stardew Valley just released nearly a full game of new content as a free update. One is clearly a work of passion; the others are just a means to make money.

@KateGray I wish we went back to a 7 being a decent score and a 4 being the highest bad score. It's very strange to see a 7 being a bad score and 8 becoming the new average.

@Basket I find the fact that they're saying this instead of delaying the game to be a more problematic issue. It implies that they're more concerned with releasing the game, than with giving us a good product.

I was screaming when I saw this announcement. I am so hyped for this game.

I'm very excited for this game.

@ItsTamo1234 I didn't understand what was actually going on with the lawsuit, so thank you for clarifying.

If I played Animal Crossing I would complete the survey.

Every time I look at Animal Crossing and think that maybe fun to play. My next thought is always, "yes but it looks like a watered-down version of Stardew Valley. So why don't I just go back and play Stardew Valley again." And then I start a new playthrough Stardew Valley.

I think I lasted maybe five or six minutes, then I got bored. Stopped the hunt try to a different weapon got bored again. Then I stopped playing the game.

I find the concept of Monster Hunter games interesting but I can never get into them. I feel like I try a demo of the new game every time a new one comes out, but I can never finish the demo. Much less want to purchase the full game.

The movement feels very sluggish and the combat feels very rough. I don't know if this is the Dark Souls thing where I need to beat my head against the wall for hours to understand it or if the game is just not for me.

It's probably just me but I think they need to put a lot more effort into their art style. It looks only slightly better than a mobile game. In comparing it to the 3DS SoS games, while there is a higher resolution, there is also a lot less detail in the world. It looks better than the new Harvest Moon game at least.

Between the 1.5 update of Stardew Valley coming out, the new Rune Factory game around the corner, and Bravely Default 2, I'm planning on passing on this game.

I was getting annoyed with having to move things around constantly on my switch. I just checked and realize that I only have a 64 GB SD card in there. So now I decided to upgrade to a 512 GB card.

I still won't be downloading Apex legends though.

I decided to give Blue Fire a try. I am enjoying it so far.

@Galaxy True, but that won't work if you are planning on using the beach farm, like I am.

I can't believe that you guys left off the translucent N64s and GameBoy Color. That is the peak of not just console aesthetics but of all electronic aesthetics.

I'm waiting to see what the new content is like. But I probably won't rebuy the game for the Switch.

While I am not a fan of videogame characters being playersexual, at least acknowledge that gay marriage exists.

I've played 5, If we count the original versions. And I have heard of 24 of those games. I'm not sure if I'm surprised it's so high or so low.

I didn't know there was a new Monster Hunter game for the Switch

Somehow I played 770 hours on my Switch this year, which is over 1 month straight. I've played 40 games this year. My most played games are

1) Stardew Valley
2) Skyrim
3) BotW
4) Xenoblade Chronicles DE
5) Doom (2016)

@BenAV If that's true, you will have played your Switch for 4 straight months.

No thanks. Played it for a couple of days on mobile. It was okay but not really my thing.

@PoorGeno they said that this was a story trailer. I'm not sure what you were really expecting.

@Zach777 If I remember correctly each story follows the main character but through an isolated adventure. So we're following the same main cast, but each story is basically standalone.

@Alucard83 that could have been just some cinematic art style rather than actual gameplay. This was a story trailer after all. I'm willing to hold out judgment until we get the game and see actual gameplay.

@DCorp at least it's good that Nintendo is only going after the copyright infringement and not the other aspects of his business.

Considering that I already played the DS remake of this game I think I'm going to pass.

@Chowdaire I question whether the pornographic images in question are hentai and not real people. That would explain why he didn't get a much longer sentence.

I got 16/16. I guessed correctly on a couple of them.

I pre-ordered the game for my brother for his birthday.

Very excited for this game. I will be waiting until my classes are done with before I get the game.

I stopped playing halfway through the demo

I don't know how, but some how I guessed all 18 correct.

@Grumblevolcano On the WiiU eshop NES games were $5, SNES/GBA games were $8, N64/DS games were $10, and Wii games were $20. Well I could see Nintendo selling their games individually like on the virtual console, I couldn't see them selling for that much more than what the virtual console prices were.

I can see theory 6 and 7 being true. But if it were true, I would think that Nintendo would say, "due to covid-19 Galaxy 2 is not ready yet and instead of delaying they game we decided to release Galaxy 2 as free DLC this holiday season".

Since three old games for $60, is a little steep for many people but if it was four games that would probably convince more people to buy the collection.

I got all 21 correct. I think I may play too much Legend of Zelda.

I'm surprised the A Hat in Time is not on this list. It's great game inspired by early 3D collectathons.

I enjoyed the story of the first 2 Mass Effect games, but I didn't care for the gameplay. After the end of Mass Effect 3, I stopped caring about the franchise as a whole.

@Beaucine When you know what you need to do you can cram more stuff into a single cycle. On my recent replay, I beat the entire game in 4 cycles. First cycle, the mandatory intro cycle. Second cycle, beating both Southern Swamp and Snowpeak dungeons and finding all their stray fairies. Third cycle, beating the ranch, getting the sword upgrade, finding various masks and bottles, and getting to the Great Bay Temple. And finally, beating the ocean spider house, the Great Bay Temple, Stone Tower Temple, finding their stray fairies, and beating Majora.

Cramming all that stuff into a single made the game more stressful and very satisfying to pull off.

I've also gotten most heart pieces and beaten the Anju-Kafe side quest on a fifth cycle. I need to do a sixth cycle to get the all night mask and beat the two shooting galleries. Then a seventh cycle of completing the Anju-Kafe side quest a second time, getting remaining the heart prices including from the moon children, the Fierce Deity mask and beating Majora a second time; should finish off everything in the game.

@kkslider5552000 If you remember the code and give it to the bomber guarding the door. Then enter into the observatory and return. The bomber:s leader with give you the notebook.
