Side order and mariokart be looking good. league expanding outside of their MOBA and lore expansion is cute. Probably looking to capitalism off the show. Contra looks good even if it’s not “new”. Gf texted me demanding SpyXAnya.
But Jesus there was like 3 or 4 Turn Based RPGs with medieval settings and sprite artwork. In competition with Fire Emblem how is there this many? Good for competition I guess.
These remakes (Luigi mansion 2) are great and all but it really shows that if the cartridge slot had been 3ds sized from the beginning they wouldn’t be able to sell you these games again. LM2 isn’t that old to need a remake but they EoL’d the 3ds so here we are. Pretty diverse announcement set.
Highly recommend 13 Sentinels if you’re a fan of visual novels. Simply beautiful with great music and characters. If you’re not a fan of VNs though, the RTS gameplay is so minimal that I wouldn’t bother. It’s well-designed and enjoyable but barely 10% of the runtime.
I think it’s kind of a genre revival. The genre was very under represented for a long time, so probably many devs started working on such games, and then ended up releasing them all close to each other.
Unicorn Overlord looks good. Not many tactics RPGs have scratched the FF tactics itch for me (Symphony of War hits the spot but playing that on steam).
There are third party memory card solutions out there... essentially they hijack the cart slot and allow you to stick in a standard micro SD card to use as storage.
I have two of the standard PSV memory cards (I think a 4gb one that came with my Assassin's Creed bundle, and another 32gb one that I spent like $100 on when the finally dropped the prices into a realm that was at least within viewing distance of sanity), but being able to stick in a cheap-o micro SD card and have ALL the games I purchased (and some extras...) is pretty great.
And because I feel like I'm legally obligated to say this as a Vita owner, hacking the thing was the best decision I made outside of buying the handheld in the first place, when it comes to the PSV. It's way easier now than when I initially wanted to try (and was too scared to do so when the handheld was still being supported), and as long as you follow up-to-date instructions you should be golden.
The way they shadow dropped Metroid Prime 1 Remaster, I am expecting them to release all 3 Metroid Prime games before 4. So, no release of Metroid Prime 2 remaster is a bit sad. It either means they aren’t going to release remasters of a whole trilogy, or that Prime 4 is much further away than we hope.
So, perhaps for nostalgia purposes, I hold Super Mario RPG (SNES) and Paper Mario (N64) close to my heart. Is Paper Mario: TTYD that much better? Everyone seems to always bring up TTYD, but I thought the first Paper Mario was a masterpiece. Trying to determine if I should buy the Switch remake close to day one (no preorders!).
Edit: I played maybe a few hours of it back in the day but never finished it for some reason.
The story, I thought, was more compelling than PM. The movement abilities were wonderful. And the graphics upgrade of the GCN is surprisingly a very welcome addition.
Just like PM, it’s a bit of a slow start plot wise.
Bro I grew up on RPGs - slow starts are my jam. While I appreciate faster pacing of games today, I won’t have any problems waiting to get hooked by a beloved game. Good to hear this about TTYD.
For the most part, I see the two original Paper Marios as equals. They both have good and bad chapters, so it's hard to say which one I prefer on that front. The aspect that pushes TTYD slightly ahead for me is that your stats aren't capped at 50/50/30 anymore. You can play the game with 10HP and a goombillion badge points if you want and the game won't stop you!
Oh really? That’s pretty interesting and a welcome surprise! I think I remember there was audience reaction in the game, which I don’t think was present in PM1 (it’s been +10 years since I played these games). I’m wondering if I probably should play them together and see how it compares.
That’s pretty high praise, paper mario 1 had such great moments and I loved the characters. Yep, I’m buying this remaster. I’ll debate if I want to get it day 1, since Nintendo’s taking a lot of money this year with Detective Pikachu and Super Mario RPG.
Not that other games are in particular need, paper mario is particularly not in need, due to its art style, theyve aged amazingly. Heck even in this trailer a lot of the environment has distinct polygon edges, because it was always intentional, its folded paper.
I guess sort of like the original Toy Story shouldnt ever need a remake because the plasticy old 3D look was intentional for a movie about toys.
On one hand, FUCK YEAH TTYD is one of if not THE greatest Mario RPG of all time. I’m 100% buying this because it’s a fantastic game and I want more games like it to come.
On the other hand, it’s been over a decade sense the original game was released, and one thing I’ve always fantasized about when this game eventually would be remade, was the concept of a Luigi’s Compass side mode to add extra content to the game. It looks like that idea has been thrown out in favor of an HD improvement to graphics.
Which while I imagine took ages with dozens of people working really hard to perfect… But to be honest, I prefer the old graphics. It’s a bit like making a live-action remake of a classic animated film.
how did you get it to run? i think i tried to play it around the start of this year, but it kept crashing at the start. did dolphin fix the issue or did you have to to something special to get it to run?
Maybe I’m bias cuz I use emulation and have a decent retro game collection but does this feel like a cash grab to anyone else?
There couldn’t have been that much about the game that needed to be updated but rather than release it online as a port for 20 dollars they’re make it a remaster and sell for full price.
On the one hand, I’m as tired of ports and remakes as anyone else. On the other, TTYD is a perfect RPG and the exact opposite of what they’ve done to Paper Mario for two generations, so it not only gets a pass but a big fat golden power star.
This game embodies everything awesome that Nintendo has been trying to stamp out of Mario games in the past decade, so I never thought they’d remaster it!
Considering at this point, I only really care about F-Zero and Star Fox’s languishing, as far as Nintendo’s catalogue is concerned; I’m just not going to hype. If something’s worth seeing in the direct, I’ll hear about it and watch it after the fact.
