All these flavors to choose from, and you chose salty.

Ba da ba ba ba!

I feel bad for the guy. And I'm not against emulation. But he isn't getting leaned on over copies of Run Saber and Xardion. Nintendo is going after him over their IP. Which, in their defense, they DO sell. Their Switch service isnt live (or properly explained) yet. But you can get many of their first party classics…

This. I have a scratchy on my screen, and the lack of backup is the sole reason I haven’t sent it in. Consoles, phones, an iPod...anything else I’ve ever been sent in has been handled via the company sending me a replacement rather than doing labor on the unit I send in and returning it.

Kinda want DMC on Switch, so I can set it next to Bayonetta.

And then Ratchet went free this month 😆

Wow. I though we were having a discussion, and said everything I mentioned as a positive was my opinion. Is being right that important to you? Jesus, man, take a chill pill. How the translation effects the tone of the game is subjective, which I never said otherwise. And I said it’s cool if we disagree. And still with…

I hate to flip the script, but you’re the one dancing on the edge of ad hominem attacks here. Really, there’s no need! It’s just a friendly debate. But obtuse? I’m feeling the same of you honestly.

I’m not sure why you are insisting on taking me out of context. You were making the claim that they bent over backwards with each release to retroactively make Trigger make sense for Cross. I was suggesting that the approximately 60 seconds of relevant anime cutscene devoted to the matter for the PSX release only…

Let me clear up a couple of things. First, I have said that CC was jarring on launch and easier to appreciate now. And I have acknowledged that one’s mileage may vary on that last part. So, I don’t see us as vastly disagreeing on anything besides personal final verdict here. I’m explaining my view, not telling you…

Well, yeah, mileage will vary with personal taste. I thought both games were colorful and fun, with dark themes. The degree differed with each game, though I did find the more accurate script of the DS version, plus the Dream Devourer epilogue and Magus/Guile inference, make the transition easier. Like I was trying to…

Cross is weird to me. I blew through it the summer it came out, and thought it was a random mess. Then FF IX came on its heels and I was absorbed into that. Years later, I dove back into Cross with a better handle on its themes and connections...and I flat out loved it. Yes, even as a sequel. It’s possible that the…

And they already have Setsuna and Lost Sphear. I’d love to add Chrono Trigger to that library. Oh, and the Romancing Saga 2 port!

Nuh uhhhhh haha

Just checked, and they have actually updated the mobile version alongside this release! Geez, we’ve only been waiting seven years for that lol. Not blurry anymore, controller and tv support, auto and cloud saves, etc.

Nostalgia and preference aside, it’s certainly not “questionable.” It’s actually a far more accurate and detailed script. Woolsey took some...liberties...to get around the limitations he had imposed on him (both with the hardware and content rules). For example, a lot of people think it’s weird that Magus is referred…

They would have had to. The mobile version is ugly as sin on anything bigger than, say, an iPhone 5 (or comparable). This was an old project released way before they were doing universal apps, and I don’t even think it was “retina” optimized (back when that was a big deal).

Agreed. I prefer the GBA version, but I can play this version fine. I have it on my phone currently. Especially on a smaller screen, it’s not really a big deal.

Dark Souls is a JRPG. It just means Japanese RPG. People get all caught up in their favorite examples of JRPG or WRPG as what the term MUST mean. Which is silly.

Honest question about one bit. Rey and her perfection. I’m asking because I usually get crickets for bringing this up. I feel like, more so than previous main SW protags, they tried to explain her skill set. Some of it is in book form, to be fair. But she grew up living in broken Imperial tech, had access to a…
