Cool, thanks. Can't wait to spam nonsense to people who don't care because I don't do that here enough already.

enojy posted:I guess I'll get Earthbound. I tried playing it when I was crazy about JRPGs and still couldn't get into it, but I can't remember why. Maybe I was in the mood for a Sephirothesque villain attempting to destroy the planet, and not wacky humor and dungeon maps in the shape of the female reproductive system. Everyone else who puts it on a pedestal can't be wrong, I guess. Does it have a high quality story? That's probably what matters to me most in RPGs. What's the big fuckin' deal with EARTHBOUND???? The story isn't anything too special. Most of the enjoyment for me (after taking off the nostalgia goggles) comes from the battle system. You can avoid encounters if you want, trash mobs are actually interesting with the crazy backgrounds/awesome music and the rolling HP counter leads to some hectic situations.

That said you will HATE how many crit hits the enemies manage to get. Or at least I did. Haven't seen that many crits against me since my TF2 days.

So if anyone has been to a Gamestop lately they're playing a video on repeat that features nothing but reggie and an interview with reggie. It played maybe 5 times the entire time I was there which was maybe 45 minutes.

Figured I'd try suggesting words in Game and Wario, just generic stuff like Earthbound and Mario Party. Got super excited when I saw responses to it too! Started adding phrases that might get amusing results and nothing. It was then I realized no one had picked my words and it was just showing me some other gallery. Now my feed is filled with me shouting MYSTERY GHOST. This game continues to find new ways to disappoint me.

Jesus christ you were in a gamestop for 45 minutes? Were you seriously injured and waiting for an ambulance or what? Every gamestop I've ever been in is basically an ugly closet full of jerks and overpriced things and no battletoads.

Well, caved because I had the money and it was ten pounds cheaper than the eshop version - One Piece Unlimited World Red should be through my door by the end of the week. Also the cheapest of the HD versions in general, despite the PS3 being so many years older. Will try to get a general summary for anyone who might be considering it, and on the edge because of the franchise's track record.

I went with DKCR3D for my Platinum reward as I don't have that game. I'll probably suck at it but it's free and it's full retail so what the hell. The gold prizes seem really weak, though. At the very least a bunch of SNES games would have been nice for those who didn't get platinum. And NeoGAF flipping out over this is amazing.

I don't know the exact conversion, but I think that a gig is something like 8000-ish blocks. E: Also to be fair, it's a port of one of the most technically demanding Wii games. I'm not surprised the file sizes are a little inflated. Artix fucked around with this message at 02:00 on Jul 17, 2014 |

I have like 200,000 blocks leftover, so it really isn't an issue. That's why I went with a 32GB card in the first place.

It's still compressed a good bit from the Wii version, which is 3.3GB.

Silver Falcon posted:You could just as easily get jack and poo poo for all the money you spent, other than, you know... the games you bought. Instead, you get a little bonus at the end of the year. I don't really give a gently caress, I don't do this crap and only recently bought a Wii U, my brother's the one that hoards stuff and only managed to get gold this year, regardless I don't expect anything just for buying a particular title or titles. I'm just saying I think the rewards are bad, especially in comparison to what the UK and Japan gets, or hell what we got on previous years. Trent posted:You caught me.

Mercury Crusader posted:I literally only buy Nintendo brand video games to reach Platinum status on Club Nintendo and definitely not because I wanted to play the games I purchased like a child. Yes CLEARLY, this is exactly what I meant by my post. Its precious how stupidly reactionary goons get.  I mean let me ask you this, would rather get a game, that you can get at anytime at a store, or digital, or would you rather some unique thing, that Yoshi, that Majora's disc last year, the Mario Kart trophies they once had.
