The SNES is the last actually good Nintendo console. It's the last Nintendo console with a non-stupid controller, you could probably drag a SNES behind a car for 10 miles and it would still work, and it's got a shitload of good games, instead of being a loving Smash Brothers machine.

StabMasterArson posted:The Nintendo Switch loving sucks and it makes me mad to think about how retarded I was for buying it full price on release day every time I look at it. Its library consists entirely of ports of indie games that came out 1-5 years ago except they cost double the price of what they were new. Splatoon sucks if you've ever played a game where you shoot guns before. The controllers lose connection if they move slightly behind your knee. All the upcoming games are also ports. For being a 'portable' system, the battery lasts maybe 3 hours. Sleep mode still drains battery like crazy. My PSP Go has been on 3 bars of charge for months. The hardware would be forgiven if there was any software to back it up but it's just not the case. But all I ever see of the Switch is people singing its praises so idk. The stating the obvious thread is this way ------>

It's mostly due to SA's demographics having mostly 80s/90s kids. It's actually you going on a tirade full of patently false info any time Nintendo comes up, and also mistaking anyone enjoying a Nintendo game as unmitigated fanboyism hth.

Fartbox posted:I wanted to love Guild Wars 2 but it was trash, hard trash Now? Much better. I don't think you would like it because it's the same foundation, but the missions, enemies, and abilities have all been improved immensely from years of feedback and learning. It's actually a running joke in the community how many people who only played the game years ago still label it as trash despite its thriving community and steady release of new content. The lore/world/aesthetic is the ultimate draw though, make no mistake.

signalnoise posted:Battle Royale type games aren't brutal enough in their depiction of the scenario. They should be horrifying What's funny is they should totally ride this trend and make an ACTUAL Battle Royale game, like, literally set in Battle Royale. Going by those rules it'd be hilarious to give the two best players in the game with the best KDR full on assault weapons while everyone else might roll a pointy stick. ED: I actually mean that, I think that'd be kind of amazing for gameplay because the whole server would have a debate if they want to band together and gank the really good guys with really good guns first, or if they want to scatter and hope someone takes them out / thins the herd. ED: Having an alternate PVE side objective to destroy the control tower to win the game would be doubly amazing for this sort of game, because it'd come down to "if you can trust people to help you, you have a chance to win and everyone to live, but odds are they'll end up ganking you." So much potential for the actual BR IP ED: I know the parachute drop thing is popular but can you imagine this: You're waiting your turn to spawn in a line with all the other players. You can see them. But if you draw a weapon now, or go out of order, the like 30 soldiers will immediately gun you down, or your collar will detonate. So you can't. You've got to let them take their run time, one after the other.. yeah they definitely need to make a legit BR game Blazing Ownager fucked around with this message at 07:44 on Apr 10, 2018 |

Also if nobody ever saw Battle Royale II two things A) Is is loving horrible and an awful sequel B) It is loving amazing and the most what the gently caress thing you'll ever see in your life Favorite moments: A dude putting on full rugbee gear to catch a grenade, and the fact the heroes lofty goals was to survive and join the Taliban ED: Oh did I mention it opens with the main characters pulling Japan 9/11 because they hate people over 30 or some stupid poo poo?

FoolyCharged posted:Their handhelds pretty much have complete control of the market, although that might change with the switch's battery life The Switch's battery life kills it as a handheld and that's a real shame. If they ever do a hardware revision, that revision needs to extend the battery life significantly. Also the fact that its charging port is on the bottom and you can't have it plugged in while it's in kickstand mode is lol There are some very good games for the Switch but I'd say it's currently in "early PS4" territory. There are a handful of really good games but if none of those are complete must-plays for you (like Bloodborne was for a lot of people on PS4) it's probably a good idea to wait another year or so and see where things are then. I'm glad I have one though because Octopath Traveler is gonna own

That's when there are the fewest games and when you're most likely to encounter hardware issues.

gmq posted:Most external batteries works for the switch thanks to the usb-c port. Yeah, that definitely helps for sure, though you need a specialized stand to be able to use an external battery while it's in tabletop mode which is kinda goofy. It's also unfortunate that the system sorta requires an external battery if you want to use it handheld while you're away from an outlet. Obviously it's workable--I'm planning to buy an external battery pack myself before my next long flight--but I'd prefer if I didn't need to and it limits how excited I am to use it as a handheld.

I'm happy with Nintendo giving me the entry level of service alone and letting me just get the poo poo I want, but it should be understood that the base system is generally not enough. Accessories are a big part of the switch. You can buy battery packs that strap onto the back of the system and what not, but if they bulked up the system any more than it is then playing it in bed would be just complete bullshit. At the end of the day I'm pleased with the switch because I like the games on it, which should be your criteria for buying a console in the first place. Like I see complaints that people bought a system with no games they wanna play on it. Why'd you loving buy it???

Well, remember when Dead Space 1 and 2 were tight, focused games that mixed Resident Evil and Doom in an engaging fashion? What if we gently caress all of that up and make Mass Dead Space Effect, because male underwear model protagonists are what all the kids want these days. I'll see if I can find the posts by the goon who worked on DS3 and talked about what a clusterfuck the development was.
