The World Ends With You is a really cool RPG that was originally on the DS. It's got a really unique style in its art and music, a fun story, and really good real time action based gameplay. On the switch it can be controlled either in handheld via the touch screen or with joycon motion controls (the DS version was primarily stylus controlled). Handheld is the easiest but I recommend playing with joycons in co-op mode by yourself, letting you control each of the two characters with one hand. It best replicates the DS's original control scheme and is really fun.

Is Spice the orange color? My friend had an orange GameCube controller that would short the console whenever it was plugged in so we decided to try and bust it up.

Those things are loving invincible. Holy poo poo. We swung it around and threw it against brick walls and it hardly cracked or dented.

Finally managed to get my Diablo 3 Barb through the season. What the easiest way to get another character up to 70? Put on Leorics Crown with a big rear end ruby and grind my way up?
I don't really want to interact with other people or grind up rifts till a gem of ease drops and then grind that up to lvl 25.

Gem of ease in an ancient 2 hand weapon will be faster to get set up than the alternative I think. That with a ruby crown got my wiz alt to 70 in about 45 minutes. Even with the grind to get a gem of ease it’s probably your best option imo.

I just noticed how close to the end of the season it is for D3. About how long does it take for a new player to level a character up to 70 for a season? Like assuming you have very little experience with the game.

I haven't played D3 in years but I've heard that they streamlined the trip to 70 so it only takes a few hours or something equally crazy.

Leveling up to 70 the first time only took me a few hours, but I got stuck at around Torment 5 difficulty getting tiny incremental upgrades that burnt me out on the game. Guess I won't be finishing all the goals for this season.

varies a fair amount based on how comfortable you are at any point climbing difficulty levels and how many exp bonuses you have on your gear, but it shouldn't take longer than a couple days at most.

Once you do the story and the new season hits, you just Adventure Mode and crush bounties. You should hit 70 pretty quick.

Yeah i underestimated how fast my Barb would rip through rifts with the Season set. I'll grind out the gem and use that.

Do we know if the genesis classics will include all the cool stuff that was released on the 3DS versions of them?

I dont know if I can play Streets of Rage 2 without Mania Mode, casual mode and one punch kill mode.

I mean, I totally can, but that stuff would be nice

I have fond memories of Toejam & Earl and I just watched that video.

Is anyone aware of any significant additions to the gameplay formula or is it a very, ahem, faithful recreation of the Genesis games?

I think it's mainly way more of the same, and all reformed. Kind of like River City Ransom Underground.

Those ports are done by a completely different studio I think. There's no hacks or special modifiers in this collection.

It's an expanded version of the original game, with a bunch of new items and the Hyperfunk Zone from Panic on Funkotron.

Course the ACA games are pretty much all Neo Geo, none of which need rotation afaik. The option is just there as a vestigial part of their emulator shell.

But yeah there’s a bunch of vertical shmups and pinball. I was playing Gunbird 2 with mine yesterday :toot:
