Nah you can get it later, although it'll be quite a while before you can go back.

Austrian mook posted:You missed it, sorry dude. Ahhhh poo poo. No big deal. I wasn't planning on 100% anyway and I don't feel like replaying the first 2 hours. That's one thing that always bothered me about the Zelda games, though. The inability to undo an error. Edit: Oh cool, you can get it back? I'm assuming not until the very end? That's not so bad since 1 heart piece isn't going to make or break you. Fremry fucked around with this message at 05:25 on Jul 6, 2014 |

More like the midway point, it'll be super obvious when you have another chance to get it. It's pretty rare for any Zelda to lock Heart Pieces away if you miss the first opportunity to get them.

I had something similar way back when too Final Boss shows his true form and the game fades to black to load... then freezes. I had to restart the entire mission, talk about a mood killer

The challenge mode in NSMBU is amazing. It's a shame that NSLU didn't add any new challenges.

Maybe there's a better thread to ask this, but I'm playing Guacamelee and I'm loving it, but I'm stuck in a spot. This is in Sierra Morena. How do I cross this? From what I've read, I think it's on the way to the Goat Fly. Sorry for the horrible picture.

Welp I finished The Wonderful 101. The game was frustrating as hell in some places and a few parts of the game kind of sucked but man, everything else about it was so great that it was hard to give a poo poo about that stuff. What a game

Fremry posted:Yeah, I've played OOT twice and never finished it. Back in '96-'97 I got to the Water Temple and never picked it back up, and played it on 3DS, got to the Spirit Temple and never finished. I don't know why, I just get far in that game and have no interest in finishing it. gently caress it. Water Temple is precisely when that game gets really frustrating. It's a shame, because the entire Ganon encounter (at the end) is one of the greatest in any Zelda game.

To be fair though, the 3DS version does a lot to mitigate the Water Temple's frustrations by pointing out where each of the three water-adjusting panels are. drat thing's still a long slog, but it's worth it for the Dark Link fight .

I've never had an issue with any of the later temples/dungeons. Forest Dungeon was the one where I got stuck. And trying to even get into the second dungeon the first time I played the game I guess. Rented it one weekend, could not figure it out and it was almost 5 years before I touched the game again.

I feel like there is something wrong with me because I am really enjoying Sonic Lost World. I find the controls to be precise and the level design to be pretty awesome. There is a couple spots where things get a little frustrating, and whoever designed the first ice level can go straight to hell, but I'm in shadow forest about to do the boss and I'm having a great time, I'm perplexed by the wildly negative reviews.

Your experience seems to be the exact opposite of mine. There were a few good levels but most were far too boring to make me want to keep wrestling with the awful controls to play them.

I'm kinda glad to hear I wasn't the only one running into bugs in W101, it's frozen on me 5+ times during boss fights in my playthroughs. Also at the end of the Walltha fight, I went into hero time right as I got the last hit and his knockback animation from it took 4-5 minutes to finish because everything was moving in super slow motion. (Much slower than what you usually get from hero time) It's probably still the most fun I had with a game last year though Help Im Alive fucked around with this message at 14:31 on Jul 6, 2014 |

They show it in a quick cut scene after the credits roll as sort of a "here's something new you should go check out", but it's not very obvious and if you stopped paying attention at the end then it's easy to miss.

I lost about 3 hours of progress last week because of a power flicker. This included the entirety of Tower of the Gods, the shittiest dungeon I'll ever encounter either as Linku or in real life.

Save after you enter a dungeon. Save after you find a new item. Save after you beat a dungeon. It takes no more than 10 seconds. I thought most of us were nerds who knew the adage of "saving often." What's terrible is playing games that don't allow saving and/or continues. I think I was once on something stupid like level 40 or 50 or a level 100 game that allowed no saving and/or continues and the power went out. I was crushed. Needless to say, I save all the time. I don't take chances. Also, the water temple (from Ocarina of Time) is not that hard if you look at your dungeon map. You can infer what needs to be done. Yes, it is high difficulty compared to other Zelda dungeons, but it isn't the end all difficulty the Internet acts like it is.

Is it possible to transfer only game saves from my Wii to Wii U or must I transfer everything? I've been Googling for a bit and its not clear to me. I'd love to transfer my data for Xenoblade and Zelda and leave data for Smash Bros on my Wii (so I can keep using my GCN controllers). It seems like the transfer is all or nothing, which includes Miis and then erases everything from the Wii?

Correct, but easy enough to circumvent with homebrew. Install BootMii, make a NAND backup, transfer everything, restore the backup.

I'm pretty sure it's everything, but character grinding takes maybe an hour if you set it to special brawl, fast, stamina, 1 hp. I watched some Always Sunny during this time.Suspicious Cook posted:Probably a stupid question, but if I intended to hook a Wii U up to my computer monitor, is there any way to also use my computer's speakers or headphones? Why not just use the Gamepad? Are you using the HDMI cable?
