Astro7x posted:Watcher Knight, even with the chandelier trick, was probably the hardest boss fight in that game I tried them again in the final DLC and it was super tough for sure, but I remember I beat them on the 2nd or 3rd attempt when I actually first encountered them without the chandelier. It was at the time I was really into Hollow Knight and I was very zen about it. Just weaving around them and slashing only when I could get a hit in. No gimmicks. I don't think I ever played HK that well, except during my Coliseum win or for maybe the time I beat the final boss and. But to get to that point I had to try at least 6 times for the boss, before everything finally clicked and it felt like time had slowed down. The Coliseum took many attempts and I think even gimmicked that one a touch. Never got to that point with NKG. I didn't want to be bothered if I'm being honest.

Far as I could tell it's a limited number of bundles, yea. I'm cynical as hell and never get hyped for video games and think the industry is a joke and seeing screenshots of Mario Odyssey has me excited for the thing to show up

Yeah, then you beat it, and more content awaits you than you've seen in the game previously. It's... kind of weird (and awesome) that way; there's literally more to do AFTER your 'final' encounter with Bowser.

This is more it doubles the moon count in every level in addition to the challenges. There's also multiple areas of challenges and one of them I'd call more a nostalgia trip than a challenge. That post game could be a 2nd full game and I'd be happy to pay $60 for pre Bowser and $60 for post Bowser. It's a goddamned steal with home much content there is.

Foehammer posted:Watcher Knights suck, I always end up putting them off until the end of my run, once I've picked up Quick Slash and have the nail maxed. One trick is to try to keep both active knights onscreen at the same time; if they are offscreen, they'll roll or bounce-roll at you but they won't roll as much if you're close to them.

It's a 2D turn-based strategy/tactics game that plays nothing like the Metroidvania-meets-Dig Dug gameplay of the Dig games. If that seems even remotely appealing, it's definitely worth $6.

Sounds neat. Watched their video. Looks neat. In my old brain this is a modernized Scorched Earth (which, yeah, is what Worms is)

That is a lot of copies of 1-2 switch. If you can pick up a copy used (better borrow / rent it) the marble counting game is really impressive and nothing else has used the HD Rumble like that, not even Super Mario Party. edit: that's Japan only, how is mon hun so low?

Picked up Steamworld Heist on sale off of the thread recommendation. It's pretty good, but holy poo poo do some of the missions like to throw enemies at you. There were a few that I couldn't 3-Star without revisiting much later in the game, after I had weapons that could one-shot enemies, or even perform multiple attacks per turn. Also, gently caress the close combat enemies that explode on death.

Splatoon 1 was the top selling game for the lifetime of the Wii U in Japan, so that's not really a huge shock.

It took me about 24 hours to 100% Adventure in Smash as just Kirby. It's a really nice Kirby game about eating people. The Snake form is hilarious.
