I didn't pay attention to Octopath because the name made me think it was a Splatoon game mode

What if after you beat Mario Odyssey you get to play through as Peach because she also has the hat with eyes

Good direct overall I think. it's a shame the strange journey remake isn't on switch... when are they going to talk about the new switch smt game?

radiant historia is a fantastic game by the way so you should all buy that please. the way positioning works in the battle system is one of the most fun mechanics in a jrpg along with press turns and brave/defaulting and whatever you call the xenoblade thing where you have to stagger enemies before knocking them down

That sounds cool, I was thinking of playing it anyway and then they announced the remake

Hello Nintendo thread. I've survived hurricane Irma and only just now have power, ac, and internet. I lasted thanks to Wario Land 2, The Legend of Zelda: The Oracle of Ages, and Mighty Switch Force 2 all on my Nintendo New 3DS XL.

I'm also very pumped for the Bravely Default take on Live a live

Both are good. Both, however, are long, and the second one is better in that it's more consistent and it doesn't repeat the mistakes of the first (which a small fraction of players have a strong negative reaction to). If you are worried about time, it's okay to skip to the second one.

without spoiling anything bravely default is like one of the most charming and refreshing takes on the rpg genre in a long time, but also the first one has more backtracking than any other game ever made so i would say go into it knowing whats in store. 2 is basically an all around improvement and it adds some tough/meaningful choice moments.

i'm really in love with the mood/atmosphere of POT, i just finished primrose's intro, theres allusions to blowjobs and stuff which was a little bit unexpected. the allure mechanic is really cool

thanks,

prims story was really sad and I loving loved her boss fight. and yeah using the word whore and talking about getting hummers in a 16 bit Nintendo rpg was super cool. finally, a mature game for a mature game like myself

olberic story is kinda like basic warrior story (so far) but I'm interested in seeing where it goes

I think I've done everything I can do in the demo: started with olberic, then started new file with prim and finished her stuff and recruited olberic, then did the bonus dungeon. I can't wait for more. I also think this is the longest post I've ever made on SA

God I hope this game turns out as good at making the different paths distinct as live a live. i still haven't started primrose's path yet so i'm excited to see if they go the live a live route or if it's just each character has a button that gets past a different obstacle
