@SteveDaSteve as someone who has played banjo kazooie I can happily explain. In the first game mumbo can randomly turn banjo into a washing machine as a gag. It would later have a practical use in tooie
@Pillowpants I get what you mean. Not to sound elitist but I completed every 7 star raid thus far they are meant to be hard compared to the 6 star raids after all the pokemon in the 7 star raids have perfect nature's, IVs, and are lvl 100. What makes them unfun is when you try to tackle them with Randoms And all they see is the pokemon they have to fight and not it's tera type.
Unlike a certain someone on this forum. I think maybe just a new starfox in the vein of assault would be better than whatever Frankenstein s monster of a game he's describing. Preferably with online multiplayer
@BanjoPickles I don't have a ps5 either I was just trying to give some cold hard facts. Also imagine using a licensed game of all things as a benchmark for framerates 🤣
@Anti-Matter then just focus on ps5. It's bombing in Japan and I hate to be the one to tell you this but the fact that it's in it's 4th year and the only game people actively give a collective crap about is astro bot. You know a game that sold really well in the first couple of weeks of release but Sony never promoted. Why? Because all they care about is trying to push live services and a non live service game doing amazingly well vs a turd like concord destroys that narrative that they deluded themselves with.
My favorite mario games are Super mario 64 a classic, Galaxy 1&2 though I like 2 a little more, and finally Super mario 3D land this ones a little over looked but I think it's one of the 3DS's best titles.
This is another result of resellers trying to make bank on of all things trading cards. At what point is this going to stop? First there was weighing packs which wasn't that bad but now X-rays. Freaking X-rays I can't be the only one that's fining this to getting ridiculous!
You did good Rachel. I may only know of her performances in pokemon but I pretty sure she crushed every other scene that had the privilege to have her voice.
This sucks. I wish I could be more profound but I fear there's not much else. Thanks for the memories can't imagine anyone else voicing misty, or jessie.
As cool as this looks it's still a waste of money. The fact that there is no physical gamecard and the toy bfg (some would argue it's a collectable but I call like I see it) makes question. Why would you spend $80 especially when most of those games go on deep discount quite often.
Grew up the NA version and it still looks cool with zero in a dynamic pose just wished it wasn't cropped so awkwardly. The Japanese version gets my vote for showing not just zero but also Omega ( the big dude on the right) giving you a subtle hint about the story.
@SillyG that would make sense. I think the Pokémon company would rather make a dedicated make a dedicated app for the mainline series. Annoying? Sure! But it would be convenient.
Kind of wierd especially because the dx version exists but I'll take it. That said I can't say for certain why we haven't seen the mainline pokemon games yet. Maybe compatability issues with home?
35 years man I remember my Gameboy color and my first two Gameboy games were Pokemon red, and Super mario bros. Deluxe. Now if you excuse me I'll get my cane.
Like others have said I liked both games, though for a lot of tha sames reasons 3h for it's story ( can't say I care about the crimson flower route).And engage for it's focus on gameplay.
@iNintendo I wouldn't waste your breath he only likes a specific kind of game that he matches his specific taste and if It dosen't fit the criteria then it's awful According to him.
I enjoyed symphona on the game cube but have avoided it on switch. The game is still good I just fail to see how Bandai namco could screw it up this bad.
It depends on the game I only use save states for games that save via password, or if I need to run an urgent errand so afterwards I get back to the action quickly. As far as rewind I just play the game without them the first time and then on repeat playthroughs all bets are off.
That's great news! It deserves this success. It shows why they ported it in the first place. Not to start an argument but i feel deluxe is the definitive way to play mk8. Now with the booster course pass and an actual battle mode. My only concern is because of how well this game has done the next entry is going to have some big shoes to fill.
@Fangleman32 that's a plausible theory but unfortunately their efforts to rebrand sonic has mostly been in vain. I'm not saying this out of animosity but through experience seeing each rebrand attempt crashing and horribly collapsing in on itself. I think it's more so Sega doesn't have a clue where to take this franchise or what direction to go because each gimmick shows for one (two if your lucky) games and then switch to something else the next. Latley it seems like they are clinging to the past.
Looks like I'm gonna have to grind out some herba mystica and ( especially for alolan raichu and beldum) and hopefully get a shiny gimighoul this time.
Losing sucks I get it. Especially if your having a really bad losing streak, moments like that call for one to just put down the controller and step away for a little bit. You know go for a walk, read a book, heck see a movie ( not that there's anything good on right now) instead of flying into a childish rage and threatening lives.
It all comes down to brand appeal Metroid prime while a fantastic game I'd even argue a masterpiece. It's still not as popular as Mario, Zelda, DK, etc. That being said I do wish the price was lower.
