I respect your opinion but man I cannot disagree more. To me it felt like they were just checking plot points off a list in the most predictable way possible. The most surprising thing that happened was a couple Organization members being traitors, which is not very much in a series usually full of silly convoluted…

Haha fair enough, I completely forgot about that until you brought it up. I guess the battles themselves being fast enough once you got to them was enough that I remember them being fast.

I’m sure nowadays I wouldn’t have the patience for it but honestly when it came out I thought it felt really great and snappy for a turn based game. I think the ring system helped because it added an element of action, and also the menus felt very fast to navigate (like P5) so that also kept it moving smoothly.

When Kingdom Hearts UX went offline it left a theater mode you could always access. It would be nice if they did that for this game too. Not sure if the format is as conducive to that though.

Fair, I say they didn’t have ideas, I mostly mean they didn’t have enough good ideas to justify the product. NintendoLand was great and there were a handful of other titles that made okay use of the gamepad but overall it felt like even Nintendo didn’t know what they were doing with it.

Uh

What else is it supposed to talk about?

I figure SE will still be promoting Rebirth but god I hope KH4 is in there, we’re fast approaching 2 years since announcement with no further news. At least once Rebirth is out in a month maybe they can pivot to KH4 but a State of Play would be a great place to drop a trailer and who knows when the next one will be.

I feel like there’s not going to be a huge console-defining gimmick. I think what Nintendo is going to want to go for and communicate this time is that they’ve learned from the Wii U and aren’t going to push some poorly-thought-out gimmick that even they don’t have good ideas for. I’m sure it’ll have some gimmicks but…

New Super Nintendo 3Switch U Advance

One idea I saw that I like is “Switch Up.” A little play on words and an indication that it’s an upgrade. Like the Wii U though it might not be immediately obvious to a casual user that it’s a whole new system, so it might not be a good idea.

I hope Nintendo does something to limit botting. Maybe a sign up for people who have had an online account for a while. I managed to walk into an Amazon Book Store and buy a Switch off the shelf day one (I’m sure because so few people thought of that as a possibility, I only knew about it because I saw it mentioned in…

The Joy cons in the joy con grip isn’t quite as ergonomic as a pro controller but it’s totally fine and included with the Switch

And what’s more, if the Switch 2 has redesigned Joy-cons, I predict it will still be compatible with Switch Joy-cons, both to connect and play and to attach them to the side, because again there are just so many out there. A lot of players have more than the 2 Joy-cons that their Switch shipped with, so it would…

Yeah these are kind of ridiculous oversights.

The reactions to this feel like a real litmus test, I see reactions ranging from “they wouldn’t post this publicly if they weren’t going to take action against Palworld” to “they’re just telling complaining fans that they don’t care and to stop bothering them.”

We already saw them takedown a Palworld mod in one day.

The scales of the models being near identical was the most damning evidence of plagiarism against Palworld

On the left is Pikachu from Pokemon Yellow. On the right is my 100% original creation, Longmouse. If you try to modify the right image to make it line up with the left, you’re really muddying the waters

The ninja outfit is great, I’m so glad they didn’t just do all pink outfits for her. The game looks cute and I’m definitely interested but I feel like it might be on the shorter side so I’m not in a big rush to pick it up.
