Ultra Street Fighter II will have an FPS mode where you shoot hadoken for some reason:

Been playing a bunch of Zelda to tide me over until launch.

Finished Link Between Worlds on Hero difficulty. Probably one of the best games on the 3DS by far.

Currently playing Link's Awakening. Played it when I was 10 and I don't think I've played it since. Funny how I can remember some little secrets here and there. Really really enjoying my time with it again, as I'd forgotten how good it is.
It's still pretty difficult as well on the bosses.

Hopefully I'll finish up and get to have a crack as the Seasons games, which I've never played.

Started up the oracle games (seasons first) for the first time to hold me over until BotW and it has been a lot of fun so far!

I'm playing through Skyward Sword and just got to the second Fire/Din temple. I really don't know why the game is so divisive.

The only thing that has been obvectively bad so far is the constant desyncing when aiming, which is strange because swinging the sword works really well. Oh and the first desert temple which went on for much longer than it should've.

Is it because of the sky overworld? Because all Zelda worlds are pretty much empty with some 'hidden' stuff here and there.

Honestly, most complaints I've heard can be attributed to the other 3D Zelda games. Like the uninspired story, overbearing helper (Just ignore her when you don't have to answer. At least she's not that drat owl), and low enemy variety.

It's still fun with some neat uses of the Wii-mote and great bosses.

Oh, and it uses a cool time traveling gizmo for fights and puzzles long before Dishonored 2.

Hey, Skyward buddy. I got it for Wii ages ago, but I just couldn't get into it. Now I'm playing it on Dolphin (which consistently makes me upset that Nintendo never did HD remasters of SS and the Galaxy games). I honestly feel the game would have been better without the motion controls, but it's still pretty drat great.

A Switch hardware run down of a devkit revealed that despite not having a browser the system can open a web applet that displays a specific website.

So there's no need to worry about how it'll connect to wifi hotspots.

what is the political alignment of sonic characters

eggman seems to obviously represent unbridled liberalism and industrialization, with randian super genious traits

sonic at the very least is a green

tails is probably grey tribe or something

shadow has to be a statist of some kind, probably statist-centrist like stalin

Sonic is a dumb gimmick game.

Oh boy, Mario, but fast! So fast you run into enemies and die so you'd better play it slow and now it's just a terrible platformer that's terrible.

The perfect game for the perfect console.

(I'll probably buy it)

And Genesis Jurassic Park is a cool game, while the SNES one is a less cool game. Someone got their wires switched!

Playing as a raptor was not as fun as it sounded. Also I remember dying a lot while running around as Sam Neil.

Pureauthor: Jul 8, 2010; ASK ME ABOUT KISSING A GHOST

The whole point of Sonic (at least the 2D ones that were good) is that you replay and master the levels so that you can constantly be fulfilling the need to GOTTA GO FAST

There's a reason there are always three 'main' paths and the lowest paths are the ones with the obstacles that slow you down the most.

# ? Feb 13, 2017 17:45

Nep-Nep: May 15, 2004; Just one more thing!

I enjoyed the early 2d Sonic games, the ones that I couldn't really get into were the ones where you have to run in 3d space and it would keep jumping between "this is a cool cinematic angle, now you have a split second to react to being in control again" but maybe I just didn't give that enough of a chance. I'm probably going to get Sonic Mania because it looks like it'll be fun and have good replayability.

Have you not bought a new phone in 3 years or something? They're all 5.something inches unless you're the one guy who got the base iPhone instead of the Plus. Hell the cheapass Moto G I use is still 5.5 inches (with a higher res screen than the Switch). The tablet comparisons are odd, the thing really is closer to phone size.

I thought worrying about this was slightly less stupid than worrying about the switch not having a touchscreen

Mega Man on the Switch wouldn't work because Mega Man can fire 3 shots at a time, and using a t-shirt cannon to launch your joycons across the room would only let you fire two at once unless you purchase more, and it would be a real pain having to tie your joycons together every time you want to fire a charge shot.
