I dunno, will it have tower climbing?

i suspect at least one tower that you will have to scale using the hook shot. probably two or three areas that you cannot get to until you have the hookshot so you will be kinda railroaded into a dungeon order

I'm that rear end in a top hat that mocked the Wii U, a lot, and now I really want one. Just waiting patiently tho for more refurbish models to become available on Nintendo's website.

I have a PlayStation 4, so that's my go to platform for everything not Nintendo. I don't like playing PC games unless it's free to play crap.

That's an all-in-one entertainment machine, which puts it more in the same category as a Fire TV.

I have Etrian Odyssey IV and found it to be a very frustrating game.

I was looking at gameplay videos and it reminded me more of Shin Megami Tensei IV. A game I kinda liked. I'm leaning towards just waiting for Persona 5 on this one.

Its really cool how over the course of a year the narrative for the WiiU went from "it's a failure, all they have is sequels and rereleases" to "its the best console ever, they just announced a whole bunch more sequels! And some of them aren't even being made by Nintendo! :woop:"

And to be fair, they do have one whole new IP on the horizon.

That's because the narrative last year was driven by loving retards. Who cares if a game is a sequel if it's really good?

Red Dead Redemption 2 is supposedly in development. So there's always that.

I'm reasonably certain that advertisements on the gamepad are opt-in. You can definitely turn them off though.

People are supposed to get hurt by things. It's fucked up to not. It's not good for you.
Every so often I'll think about buying a 3DS since I probably could quite easily afford it, but then I end up remembering that its region locked and that really sours my fun and then I decide not to and then repeat the next time I think about buying a 3ds.

region lock on a handheld is loving stupid
