2017 has just began and I’m already going to be backlogged for games just released this year. Gonna try to finish at least one game releasing on the 24th (tough picking between RE:7, Yakuza 0, and Tales of Berseria) before Nioh comes out on 2/7. Nioh’s looking to be my preferred timesink of the year.

Nice, maybe if you’re lucky you’ll actually be able to find an NES Classic by then! ba-dunnn, CHHH!

Yes but can you date Barret?????

The fact that Ragnaros, a giant molten creature with a massive warhammer, is classified as an Assassin boggles the mind.

I’m going to reference my profession, just once, to contextualize what I’m going to say next: I have spent the last decade as a professor of Literature (and Rhet/Comp, but whatevz).

I say that to say this: Final Fantasy XV is by turns a brilliant, revelatory, and absolutely necessary change in direction for a franchise…

I adore the show based on the same property, so i am down for playing the games!

as a bearded man/boy this picture speaks to me in a special way.

A big part of that spike was surely the insane Bandai Namco donation incentive.

After…

You didn’t even attempt to read the article, did you?

You didn’t watch it. There are no cheats. It’s a “hack” because it’s a modified version of Super Mario World. Panga made all of the levels, and they are crazy hard.

This segment was the best thing this year, I’m expecting the super metroid 4 player race to be the best again like it was last year but i’ll have to wait and find out ^^

Yes! And having the option to put them in a standard controller is great too.

It didn’t even occur to me until today that you could play a standard game with the JoyCons not attached to any grip. I really loved having my hands feel separated with the Wii Remote and Nunchuck, so combining that comfort with a more standard controller layout has the potential to make this my favorite controller.

Bomberman was Call of Duty decades before Call of Duty was a thing.

Watching the Nintendo Switch presentation is like watching an ex girlfriend who has so much potential but is totally making the same fucking mistakes over and over and you just want to shake them and tell them to stop.
