The Red Dead port is pretty awesome because it's Red Dead, runs well, and looks good still. No dynamic resolution abuse here! Having Red Dead poker on the go is awesome, and while the lack of gyro aiming is a bit sad, it's got that standard Rockstar hard snapping aim assist, so as long as you're okay with that, then it's no huge deal.
That’s good to know. I played it on PS3, and not in a mood to play it again, but great to have it for anyone who hasn’t played it before, or may want to play it again.
It's a good fit for a portable system, surprisingly, due to all the different activities. You can throw it on, run a couple bounties or just play some cards, and put it back away.
When they eventually put it on sale I'm sure it'll be more appealing to more people, the price is up there, but they really did put work into the port job and it shows.
I played 2 first without play 1. Now I’ve started I was immediately connected to Marston. But also adjusting to gameplay will take a while. 1 after 2 feels like a stripped back mobile version of 2. Still enjoying.
I kinda like it, but I'm also used to it since I played them in release order. I like not having to worry about replenishing cores, I like not having to cock guns after firing them, I like being able to hold infinite animal skins and such, and that you just sell everything and don't need to worry about crafting and stuff.
2 is awesome too, but it leans more sim and 1 is more "arcadey" is a short way to explain the difference.
My moonshot wishlist includes -Metroid prime 2 -Legend of Zelda windwaker/twilight princess
Not expecting anything for the Switch 2 as Nintendo wouldn’t compromise holiday sales. Just just regular Switch releases this year and early next year stuff.
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!
Well then. T'was certainly a Direct; forgive me for the coming wall of text, and if said wall of text comes off as a bit negative at times.
Tragically, the additional Side Order information mostly shoots down my stupid conspiracy theory that it's a sequel to Paper Mario Colour Splash. Though then again, we still don't know why the "Spire of Order" is devoid of colour, so it still could be the work of the straw-wielding Shy Guys (no it can't). Idiocy aside, the fact it's a rougelike is really interesting to me; I honestly just expected standard, pre-set single player campaigns to be the only major offerings of Splatoon 3's DLC, akin to such campaigns of the main games and 2's DLC. I do generally like rougelikes and did enjoy the first two Splatoons, so reckon I'd probably like this as well, but I never bought Splatoon 3 under the pretence it didn't change enough from 2 to justify existing on the same system, and I'm not shelling out for the game and DLC just to play the seemingly cool rougelike side mode.
I was NOT expecting Trombone Champ, of all games, to make use of the right joy-con's IR camera - been pondering about how relatively underutilised it is lately, though it's probably not the easiest thing to actually find a use case for. I suppose that using it as a controller fits with the insanity of Trombone Champ, though, and multiplayer looks like it'll be absolutely stupid in the best way possible. My sister already owns the Steam version, though, so probably won't get this one, hilarious as the Switch-specific controls look.
Considering that Mansion 3 is perhaps one of the best looking games on the Switch, Luigi's Mansion 2 HD looks profoundly manky to me. Really just looks like an upscaled version of the 3DS version, perhaps with smoother models and possibly Luigi's model snagged from 3, but since its first reveal and furthermore now, it's always looked more than a little manky. At least the Scarescraper's still there, though; in spite of never beating the main story of the 3DS original, I played mountains of Scarescraper.
F-Zero 99 looks kinda cool, and given it's free, I'll absolutely try it out, even if my few attempts at the original F-Zero via Smash 4 Wii U's Masterpieces and Switch Online SNES went terribly. The worry, of course, is that it'll be as short-lived as other 99 games like Super Mario Bros. 35 and Pac-Man 99, which would be a real shame for a series as famously content-starved as F-Zero.
I mentioned the IR camera's underutilisation earlier, and WarioWare also decided to use it for some microgames. So that's pretty cool. Don't particularly like Wario's voice acting, though; probably a consequence of Martinet stepping back from the role. While what we've heard of Mario's Wonder voice sounds good to me, this Wario voice... less so. Also a bit worried about how I'll play this game at all; definitely looks like it's best played docked, but I almost always play with the Switch in Handheld Mode, and my console misbehaves when trying to dock it (i.e: it does acknowledge it's been docked, but doesn't display on the dock screen). Could probably make use of my old spare Switch or my brother's instead, though.
There are only two question mark slots on the character select screen in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, so where are they going to stick the two extra characters they've introduced? Are they going to crush them, or some existing characters, into alternate costume slots? That aside, I do fear that given that only 4 Tour nitro tracks (ignoring the RMX courses) aren't in the Booster Course Pass yet, all 4 will appear in this final wave. While there have been some good Tour-originals throughout the Pass, they've been distinctly hit-and-miss, and the city tracks definitely blend together a bit with 12 of them in the game.
The appearance of the characters in the Thousand Year Door remake remind me of Sticker Star's key art (https://mario.wiki.gallery/images/5/54/PMSS_Mario_Shiny_Album.png), probably only because of the different segments/layers having their own depth to them. Also, the talking sound effects are quite funny to me, likely due to the fact that some are audibly existing sound clips cut apart, and the original game used the same ones for almost every character. Didn't play the original, though, and having played other RPGs in the past, like the Mario & Luigi games, I feel confident in the assertion that they're better as spectator sports for me.
All the other announcements, I don't really care that much about, and would probably just poke fun at if I were to speak on them.
It is nice of them to add something new, but I am a bit disappointed by the NSO emulated game library. There are still many big name first party titles missing and I would not mind paying a bit more for a much more robust library.
The service looks shit and seems to be their way of arguing against emulation “we are working on making these games available so there is no legitimate call for roms” is my view.
I hate that Mario is tied to Nintendo, Nintendo are a shit company.
Did something unusual for me and picked up the Pokemon DLC and started it before finishing Tears of the Kingdom. Needed a break from TotK for a while anyway. Since it’s only been out a couple days I don’t think I’ve gotten too incredibly far into it, but it’s still good ol’ Pokemon fun so far. I just really wish Game Freak would put more effort into fixing the optimization (if they can) because almost a year in it still chugs in places it really shouldn’t.
Well, with Game Freak, voting for wallet isn’t going to work, as Pokémon is really big and they have big enough following that is just going to buy anything with Pokémon name on it. So all we can do is pray. 😛
Still playing Pikmin 4, I think I might be close to finishing. It’s been fun, but I’m starting to feel a bit bored after almost 30 hours…
After yesterday’s Direct I got Horizon Chase 2 which I was expecting on the Switch. It’s a bit buggy (nothing major, just small things here and there), and the frame rate drops in some stages, but it’s still quite fun and the music is amazing. Barry Leitch never disappoints 🙌
I think I’m at the last site of the main campaign. I’ve been playing pretty relaxed and getting 100% in each site. HowLongToBeat says it takes 38½ hours for “Completionists”, so I’m guessing that’ll be how long it takes me at least. But I’m in no rush 😅
Horizon Chase 2 is pretty fun, it’s arcade racing, so pretty accessible for people who don’t play realistic racing games like me (the only other racing game I play is Mario Kart!).
I also played some Smash Ultimate during the weekend and I’m seriously considering getting Nintendo Online again to play online (and also for F-Zero 99…).
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.
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.
