Can we just get another solid 3 years of good switch support before, y’know, you pull like a wii-u? 

You ask too many questions. It’s Space Jam! We’re all going to watch it and enjoy it anyway. (even if it is bad)

it’s the real reason the rover is on mars

and the Lord Jesus spoke: “ye, if thou hast a rockin bod, make yon ducats on the site only for fans, my child! dolla, dolla bills, ye all!”

ROFL...neighbors and parents “discovered” the site, huh? Any word on which dad or dads outed her to the rest? Jesus is fine with us LOOKING at OnlyFans, apparently...it’s only the posters who need to be kicked out. You couldn’t pay me to send my kids to a Catholic school. 

Huh it looks pretty damn good for N64, showing how great Rare was at pushing game engines and consoles to their limit during SNES and N64 and GameCube/Xbox eras. Read more

And I play Zelda for the dungeons and to solve cool puzzles, and don’t care about the exploration. That probably explains why I hate BotW and love Skyward Sword and so many feel the opposite way. Eh, different strokes. I do wish that they’d release a game that did both well so all camps could be happy.

This. The waggle is the low hanging fruit, it exacerbates all the other issues the game had, but it is not the only problem the game had by a long shot.

It had moments of cleverness and creativity, but holistically it was long and drawwwwwwn out. There were a number of obvious padding missions and lots of repetition in general. But worth noting, this game came out when game length was THE most valued metric, and Nintendo delivered. To the detriment of the game imo. Read more

Extremely excited about Legend of Mana coming to the Switch. All you really need to know about the game is that a plotline involves a monkey and anthropomorphic phonograph musical duo who are unable to express their true feelings towards each other, so one ends up having to descend to the underworld in order to save… Read more

As apparently the one guy in this world who really liked Skyward Sword, I’m happy to have a modern port of this with button controls.

That honestly would be the biggest QoL improvement.... but it may reduce the overall game play by 1/2 ;) 

Please tell me they fixed the bug where you got the item description scene every time you reloaded a file.

Seriously, even a Twilight Princess port would’ve been more exciting. Hard pass on this one.

Ah the absolute last Zelda game I wanted a port of... 

I dunno man, “blood” and “honor” are two pretttttty common words in video games, and putting them together seems like something that’s probably happened without any devious intentions more than a few times across the history of gaming. The fact that you’ve got to translate it from German first, too... ehh. Read more

Sir this is a Wendy’s.

Crypto, which also basically a giant pump and dump in the case of Bitcoin.
