Idk if a human could pull this off by themselves, it doesn’t look like there’s mushroom for error.

Kelly Clarkson has a talk show?

Awfully convenient that she chooses to express this in the most performative, non-specific way possible, on social media, followed by a carefully curated Massengill-style photo for maximum sympathy clout without actually having to defend her accusations in any way shape or form. Instagram reality in every way…

After you power down the laptop you can hold down S on a keyboard to skip the subsequent cutscenes at least on the PC version. 

FYI, you actually can skip the cutscene. At least, you can in multiplayer.

I’m kinda hoping this isn’t a limited run situation. I decided not to pick it up because I have other stuff to play but I do want a physical copy. I was gonna buy one last week but decided I could wait so hopefully that wasn’t the wrong decision.

Meanwhile in America

Dude, he just wrote the article, don’t shoot the messenger.

But the most important question of all: can I still do a pixel-perfect jump exploit to get the high jump boots at the beginning of the game?

Oracle of Seasons/Ages were shown in the “Games to be added” at the end of announcement.

Only the first Metroid Prime? You already bundled the three once, Nintendo. Wtf?

What do you think it means for something to be held together by metaphorical duct tape???

Environmental Station Alpha. Metroid on steroid.

If we’re loading up in the “Way Back Machine” then I’m dropping Murumasa: The Demon Blade. Which I played the hell out of, and needs the HD treatment on Switch.

LOVED Dust, too.

I may need to dig out my Wii stuff, then my XBox360 stuff. 

Whenever I see a list like this I always have to bang the drum for Dust: An Elysium Tale. Yes, I know it’s almost ten years old now, but I still think it’s been incredibly underrated. Metroidvania is my favorite genre of games, and I think Dust is on the Mt. Rushmore. It does all the usual Metroidvania things, but…

I enjoyed Metroid Dread and I’m glad the series finally got (at least some of) the attention I’ve always felt it deserved, but I still think it’s weird how so many folks were talking about it being the best game in the series.

Consoles also use purpose-built OSes rather than having to deal with Windows and all its associated dross, so that seems like it would help as well.

Exactly, I built a PC with 32 gigs of RAM in 2020 and another in 2021 with the knowledge that PC games were headed that way anyways. The reason PS5 and Series X can run these game with smaller amounts of RAM is because it’s soldered to the PCB and as close as possible to the CPU which makes it extremely efficient.

I mean, it’s RAM. Don’t people just go and add as much as the computer will allow? It’s the easiest part of the whole buying process. Just get a shit ton and forget about it for the next decade.
