I already maxed it out, what other advice can you give?

I'm not a pro or even that great, but actually hammering out some trainings will help. Either make your own for that specific situation or search to see if someone else has.

Rocket League is one of those games you will have to practice at. Even time away from it will make you worse. It really is like playing an actual sport.

You'll come back to it and remember the basics but if you're not consistently trying to learn something new or practicing, you're going to get left behind.

I booted it up on Switch the other day for the first time in a while. It just got 4k 60fps for Xbox, but I got kicked off the tv for "shows."

Yeah if Tropical Freeze was $60 you can bet that this will be too. I never played any of the Prime games, would I be remiss if I jumped into 4 when it comes out?

We know literally nothing about 4 other than the title, but pretty much every Metroid game is self-contained, not usually much of a deep story either beyond "Samus responds to distress signal, poo poo happens" so you're not going to be missing out on anything big.

That said, you should at least play the first Metroid Prime because it's really really good and easily the best in the series.

EDIT: best of the prime games, Super Metroid or Zero Mission are probably the best 2D games

Given the amount of time since the last Prime game I'd be surprised if it just plopped you at the tail end of the last plot with no onboarding.

probably not. the first three games revolve around a magical space mineral called phazon that contains awesome power but the radiation drives you crazy. space pirates love it. samus deals with phazon-based problems and blows up a planet and an alternate dimension and kills ridley a few more times

Nintendo usually designs their games so you don’t feel lost if you haven’t played the previous games but you should since they’re good.

Not really if the trilogy really is full price. 3 is not recommendable in any way and 2 makes a lot of dumb decisions that drags it down even if its still good.

I never even played Prime 3 more than once or twice just to see how the controls worked, and I never did get any of the Prime Trilogy re-releases. That will be day 1 for me, especially if it's HD.

Wtf. I played all the Prime games back when they got released on the Wii U and they're all fine. In fact 2 was my favorite. 3 I thought was the best mechanically. I liked not having to swap beams all the time, and you get fast travel access before the rear end end of the game. They're all good, though.

Nah. They go down in quality with each one but the start is so high that the third one still nets out at "average".

Kid Icarus: Uprising deserves to be enjoyed by more people. I played the whole game and loved it, but even I will agree that the control scheme was not great.

For anyone who is curious, the Switch seems to have a limit of 68 games as the maximum you can have queued for download at one time. Every time I tried to add the 69th it would error, but when one finished I was able to top it back up to 68 again.

Why yes, I did just buy a gently caress you huge memory card, why do you ask?
