Maybe they’ve fixed the face button sticking issues on these new models too 🤞

Lena Raine’s Celeste OST is becoming my most listened to album on Spotify, its just so good. It’s hard to find a more relaxing and chill album to throw on during my work day.

FYI, FFXIV has an extremely slow ramp up time in introducing game systems and mechanics, it really holds your hand and takes its sweet time doling out new stuff and more complex gameplay. This is why alot of people complain that the game is “too slow”, compared to similar games (though its also partly because it has…

I’m OK with just “fine” purely technical graphics specs. You’re right, pokemon doesn’t need 4K, HDR, DLSS, etc etc, but what it does need is top tier art direction and an inspired visual style, which from what I’ve seen so far, looks like a big swing and a miss on these remakes.

I’m not really sure where everyone is getting the “bad reception” that Skyward Sword supposedly had, maybe this is some sort of Mandela effect im experiencing? I remember it receiving it nothing but praise on release. And even the critic reviews AND user reviews of the time back that up.

I’d say most of the people that played the original Wii U version (myself included), as well as the press/critical response, had really the complete opposite experience and reaction of “kinda meh”. It received a ton of praise and was basically universally loved as one of the best “course completion” mario games of all…

No, and also some of us old-timers still buy physical versions of games. So I’d like to think Nintendo isn’t going to show up at my house and demand my 3D All-Stars cartridge. :-D

I’ve got 2.5D World to trudge through eventually.

Cue the Okami-FFXIV crossover event.

Yeah, that reply was a bit tongue-in-cheek haha, :-P Big N definitely has had duds (a company around for as long as them is bound to!). I was more taking a jab at the sentiment that some people have, who seem to think that Nintendo just “gets lucky” with their successes, and not giving credit where credit is due.

NES releases:

In a way, you also have to admire Nintendo a bit for not going for those easy cash grabs too though. Yeah, people hate on them all the time for being “out of touch” and not listening to what the people want, but on the flip side they also don’t just monetize the crap out of something once they have a big success on…

3D World is an absolute blast and one of the best “stage completion” mario games out there (maybe just behind Super Mario World). Even though its 3D and the levels have some “depth”, it has a mostly fixed camera and plays more like the classic 2D platformers, its nothing like the free roaming adventure-y games like…

P.S. Stop crowding the damn quest-giving NPCs! It’s been 16 years of World of Warcraft, surely we’ve developed better MMO manners than this.

Every single move in Mobius is agony. There are no breezy scouting runs, or tanks that are able to crush everything in their path. Everything is vulnerable to everything else at all times, and a single wrong move can see half your army wiped out instantly. With no way to get them back, since in this game your units…

wrong thread, sorry! :-P

That same exact background has been my PC, macbook, and smartphone wallpaper since around when the game first came out. It’s perfect.

A lot of companies have design guidelines for icons when submitting apps to their respective stores/marketplaces (apple app store, play store etc), that explicitly recommend not including your name/text in the icon graphics. One big reason is on smaller form factors (such as switch’s handheld screen) the text can…

“We are planning on having a planning meeting, in which we will begin to plan the direction of our work-in-progress Roadmap, which will serve as the guide for our actual Roadmap, it being the visualization of the plan for our game.”

Does anyone know if Analogue’s preorders require all or partial payment up front? Or are you charged when it’s released next year?
