It’s a shame, considering my favorite part of the virtual console is previously unreleased/untranslated games were starting to see the light of day. It really helped put the brakes on certain runaway inflation with, let’s face it, not TRULY rare games going for upwards of $200 online.

I never even tried. When he reared back I thought “scary!” and got out of the way. If we’re talking about the same hunter, I found out he was scared of leaving the church and took advantage of that fear.

They could patch the door to work NOW, I suppose, in the era of the PS4 Pro loading the other area shouldn’t be that big a deal. Heck, they could set the game to unload the previous area if they cared to.

My “parry” skills are equally subpar. I could do it fairly reliably to SOME enemies in Demon’s Souls, but my preferred method of avoiding damage was to dodge. I tended to dump crazy points into keeping my agility up, even in heavy armor. I was the mad fool wearing Havel’s stone armor that somehow could move like I was…

Earthbound Beginnings would be a good additional title to slap onto our version, as well as adding an additional controller to get that feature parity with the Japanese version.

The opinions of people freaking out because the behind the scenes team is diverse aren’t even worth addressing. Their way of thinking should just die in obscurity, forever.

Does unmuting the tab solve the problem, or does the audio break bad enough that even unmuting isn’t a good fix?

Super Mario All-Stars is the inspiration I would take. I just want to be able to buy the games, not have their ownership tied to a recurring yearly fee.

So long as I can flat out “own” those not-VC VC games, without needing to keep up a subscription to keep them working, I am ok with this.

Breath of the Wild in particular has a storyline perfectly suited for this. Literally all that would change is this time, Link sacrifices himself battling Ganon for a century while Zelda sleeps.

No idea what this is about, but here is my response to that.

Nay, those are mere aberrations. Most crows prefer sparkly-twinkly.

This is definitely not due to server costs. People vastly overestimate how much it costs to have a single game available on a server that, face it, Nintendo is going to keep up anyway.

“The incoming president realizes, he said, that games-as-a-service models and mobile games are becoming increasingly important and that Nintendo isn’t making as much money as it could be in those areas.”

Ok, now dip this costume in blue paint and go as the bluebird of loneliness.

At some point, some company is going to go ahead and release a truly “open” console, gating off their store and official releases from it but allowing them in the same way Android allows “offloading” external software. The first to do that is going to make a hell of a lot of sales. If this hack is truly unpatchable,…

I always thought those Tiger Electronics games sucked, but Game & Watch games tended to be a lot more entertaining. They aren’t amazing, but they are at least fun to pass some time. Tiger Electronics games tended to be frustrating instead.

Far Cry 5 has some absolutely incredible glitches.

Nintendo is locking cloud saves behind the subscription (fair enough, MS and Sony do the same thing), but there absolutely needs to be an offline backup in place. I want something that I don’t have to pay for, and which will outlast Nintendo’s cancellation of service for the Switch.
