@YagaMaki Kind of always wondered if Gamepass like services actually encourage you to be able to quit a game because you don't feel like you paid anything into it. How far did you get into it? No judgement on my part, haven't played it yet.

If only being dumb enough to pay for something like this was illegal. Probably not enough jail cells, though

@anubisvel Preordering has long been an unnecessary tactic. Used to make some sense when you knew demand would outstrip supply. Nowadays, I think it's meaningless unless you really, really, want that skin.

@Divinebovine Exactly. My "backlog" is virtual, I reserve it in my head and buy it when I get around to it (which almost always means it's cheaper). Sure beats paying full price for a backlog, but if I had to guess most of game journalists backlogs aren't full price either. Could be wrong.

Never once had an issue with this. A solution looking for a problem...

I actually slept on Death Stranding and it sat on my game shelf for a while in my backlog. Just started playing a few weeks ago after upgrading to Director's cut immediately. I'm blown away by this game. Whoever called it a walking simulator, obviously never played it. It's keeping me up at night.

@m-wasi You'll want to google Australian slang word dinger. It decidedly doesn't mean baseball.

@m-wasi I think in this sense they meant the Australian slang version.

Microsoft gonna be the next SEGA?

A survey given to idiots who know little about games, gives idiotic results.... News at 11

Seeing Minish Cap just makes me miss traditional dungeons even more.

I think it would take zero effort for Nintendo to make a YouTube app and that's exactly how much effort they've put into making one.

Never played Series, New, or Like. Or any of them any good?

Man, I'm really trying to like Unicorn Overlord but keep putting it down. Maybe I'm too dumb to enjoy it?

7s? Well, I'll put that in my bargain bin category.

Either buy it or don't buy it, I think our expectations are meaningless unless we vote with our wallets. In other words, if they keep selling them, they'll keep making them.

@DannyBoi Pretty sure that's just Justin Beiber

That looks just a little too on the nose to be anything other than a clone.

@rvcolem1 It was Tuesdays. Pepperidge Farm remembers...

@Yosher Well, it's a step up from cat videos.

Maybe the actual ones with Mario will come down in price. Always a sale on any of them that don't include the plumber in red, himself.

Europe has become what conservatives were in the 1980s. (That's not a political statement just an observation.) They'll outlaw dancing, next.

Makes me worried that the developer is going all black hat for a game. Maybe it's normal but the fact their is a whole article dedicated to it, makes me wonder even more.

Was there any doubt? Just glad I also have a PS5 and to think Nintendo is where I spent my teenage years playing FF games.

@Rykdrew I have high hopes that this game will be fun and entertaining, but definitely niche and can't disagree that it will probably join the bargain bin very fast. I'm just waiting for the inevitable Hollywood-esque blame the audience, if it fails. You certainly won't be able to blame the marketing team. Pretty sure everyone, even non-gamers, has seen it advertised, by this point.

@ThatZeldaNerd Well, to be fair, he didn't say it WAS releasing on MAR10 he said it would be nice if it was. I guess since he is a prolific leaker, it's not a wild assumption that he's implying that, though.

This looks like a game built for a phone or tablet. Is it available on ios or Google?

Honey, did you forget to pay the rent?

I don't care what anyone says about the audience age. I can't wait to play this. Knee deep in FF 7 Rebirth ATM but this might be next game.

Exact comment I made on here regarding the initial article. The patient bled out years ago and now they are calling the EMT?

GOTY? I mean I know it's probably good and plan on playing it but GOTY? Maybe for a niche category, I can see that.

Wonder what took them so long? The Switch, regardless of Switch 2 delay rumors, is most definitely in its twilight years. Yet, this emulator (and another infamous one) have been around almost since the Switch was running around in diapers. By the time this move through courts, I’d be shocked if the Switch successor isn’t on shelves. My guess is this is to deter future emulators but that will never happen. Emulation is here to stay, hell even the video game companies use emulation. Also, there’s a good chance that emerging AI technologies makes it almost too easy to produce. They may kill Yuzu but they aren’t winning this war anytime soon.

@JB2448 I used all my Yen upgrading weapons and buying Soul Drops.

So not as "good" as the flop AAAA that just come out?

USA: Is it oil based? No? Yeah, never mind.

@Vil Yep. Got no voucher, but saving my once-a-year remake allowance for Paper Mario.

Tried to convince my wife to play this at my funeral but she threatened me with making that event happen sooner than I wished.

Kind of bummed Persona 3 Reload wasn't on Switch. I have a PS5 but this just screams Switch game to me. Obviously, a conscious choice they made but the excuse of it needing beefier hardware is ridiculous. Not a chance that a platform that runs P5R wouldn't run this game. Lame.

Insert pic of Nanba smelling his finger

Poor Xbox sales. The only competition they gave in sales was to the PS4. Don't think the company's chatter did it any favors lately, either.

I loathe spoilers. Especially in story-centric games. Game journalists seem to be the worst at exposing them, than any other category I can think of. Historically why if it's a game I really want to play, I try to avoid articles on it. Spoiler-free shouldn't be a tag on article, it should be the default. Obviously, a year or two after release, and that's on us, or a guide is by nature going to spoil. However, the amount of spoiling that goes on in the game industry, in article titles alone, is ridiculous. It's 100% about click rates and just a sleazy business model, to begin with.

Makes zero sense to start back at LCD

Looking for the "Yikes" option

@Toastmaster Right..... keep saying that to yourself.

Can we just settle on "Poor man's Pokemon" or did Digimon already copyright that slogan?

Still haven't figured out what this game is supposed to be. Warioware with Peach?

@gribb85 Perfectly reasonable point. Which probably means Nintendo won't do it.

I am amazed that the big N hasn't taken action on this game. Even if I think it's a far fetched infringement, myself, that usually doesn't stop them.

Not a judgement of any kind, but somehow knew the Great Resignation would one day led to the Great Firing. Doesn't bode well for gamers, or anyone for that matter, but what goes up must come down. Just in my own line of IT work, I'm seeing much more applications for advertised jobs, where two years ago, I couldn't get anyone to apply. The job market is turning.

Great game but hard to believe they are still making updates to it. Any word on the next game from this universe?
