Never planned on getting it due to it being rushed out for holiday $ales, but it's cool you revisited it. I sometimes check the comment sections here when looking at older games on sale that were reviewed with performance problems just hoping someone had posted an update on patches.
No idea why anyone would pay for any of these when you can literally watch gameplay and have the exact same experience. Weird stuff, these not video games on a video game system.
I was very confused about a "magazine" until I saw it was just some kickstarter/patreon BS and not any sort of real magazine. Who reads a magazines anyway?! It's 2023 yo.
Such a weird game. Pretty fun even if it got painful after playing for half an hour. A shame there weren't any other games to utilize the drums, at least that I ever saw.
Guess Figma is like a GI Joe, appendage bending wise? That's kinda neat. Hope someone makes some cool stop motion videos with him climbing things or whatnot.
While I'd absolutely love a good Avatar game, this doesn't look like it'll be it. Especially with the history behind the company that took over a year and a half to get voice lines for their nickelodeon fighter...
It could be fun. I was in the minority that was playing Black Ops on the Wii in between MW2 on Xbox.
All I know is I'll never play another competitive FPS with a controller that doesn't have gyro aiming. It's such a game changer, and feels all the more brilliant on Switch with the screen dead center of your movements (compared to on a screen feet away).
Not possible especially if they're planning on using any higher end chipsets. Still good odds China takes Taiwan and throws a wrench into everybodies electronic gizmo plans.
I should finish the first one. Just have found I don't care much for any "story" related to the Mario characters anymore so makes it harder to get back into.
So by this logic.. older cars are no longer automobiles because they don't go as fast as a 2023 Lamborghini?
The old white dudes in charge of laws in the country all need to be put in a retirement home and replaced with people who pump blood and not dust through their veins.
"Gyro-based cursors inevitably drift, lack accuracy compared to the IR equivalent, and need to be reset and recalibrated frequently."
Who's arse did you dig that info out of? Lmfao
1500+ hours of gyro centric games on my Switch would highly disagree with you. I've never even had to recalibrate it once. Lack accuracy? What?! I've never seen my gyro cusor shake like I did when using the Wii pointer and trying to hold it still.
Meanwhile all of us people who use DekuDeals instead of this 5 pages of advertisement for eshop cards disguised as an article are seeing a lot of "matches previous low". Nothing for me then.
It's just a buzzword to catch simple folks attention. When NY eventually crumbles and is rebuilt we will call it New New York.
@Gerudo_Guy it's because as people in general got dumber, they had to dumb games down as well. It really does look like a mindless autorunner instead of something that required skill, which was lost after SMB3.
I mean it looks okay, I suppose, not really very pretty compared to the treatment Star Ocean got. But my god..that archaic bland nothingness of a combat mechanic. Totally fine 25 years ago, absolutely boring today.
@Simon97 Yeah it was easier for the guy to reply rudely instead of saying "you have to pay to play this free game early".
@Simon97 Nah, I'm assuming most of us will stick to the free part of the game. There's going to be wwwaaayyy more new players joining at the actual release than the few they suckered into paying to play a beta.
Well people called Genshin a BoTW ripoff and it was endlessly a better game with an actual living world. So much so it was never able to make it to the Switch lol.
The extras are rather weak since it'll just be rehashed stuff they've all said in the countless promotional interviews they did for the film I'm sure.
@RetroGames Yeah even with the slightly subdued agenda there still wasn't any hint of the sweet caring Peach I knew from the cartoons as a kid or any of the games.
