I'm not saying this makes me better than others, or even that it's a good thing (makes first dates awkward lol). Just saying people who don't know anything about pop culture exist. We're not pretending not to recognize the people in the Gameboy photo for Internet cool guy points. It's just not in my sphere of knowledge.

If you're nerd enough, you can listen Digital Foundry talk about Hellblade on the Switch. Sounds like it's a technical marvel of a port, considering the hardware in question. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb1BGLGS_UY

here's my super old take of nsmbwud, because I played through the whole game and expansion on the toilet: jeremy parish is right in that it has some superb level design, and if there was any new super mario brothers game to give a remaster treatment it was this one, but it's still kinda too reliant on nostalgia for super mario world and it's aesthetic only reaches somewhat memorability at certain moments. also there's some stuff to nitpick: it sucks that everytime you die you are kicked out to the overworld and are treated to an annoying loading screen (truly the soulsborne of mario games HAR HAR HAR), the whole peachette thing is clunky and nintendo should've embraced full queer and let the crown be used on every character, the twirl ability also being on the jump button is stupid and yes I know of the cheat and it's dumb that you have to do that. Also luigi bros is cool but is kneecapped by the decision to boot you to the world map when you die, also I imagine that engaging in luigi bros is going to be extremely confusing to folks who do not understand the context of the expansion, they should have done something to indicate that yes you are playing an entirely new campaign. edit: I realized that most of that was bitching, so I guess I should say more nice stuff: The game is overall really good, and you can tell that the team was pushing the confines of the NSMB template to the point where it sometimes resembles content you would see in super mario maker. The really clean look actually looks nice in max resolution. I really enjoyed that there were secrets to uncover, and to find the special levels I had to eyeball the world map and theorize where a hidden route would be, just like I did back with Super Mario World. The powerups are all great this time, and I liked that at the endgame they made the penguin and propeller suit more common. Also all the star road levels were extremely entertaining!

Mister Facetious posted:I'm basically wishing I'd bought Tropical Freeze instead because there's less variety to level design and block types than Mario 3 or World. Just to offer a different opinion: NSMBU is one of my all-time favorite platform games and probably the only Mario game I've 100% completed. Granted, that was on the Wii U, but considering the Switch version is just that + more, well... NSMBU is loving delightful!

DanZX posted:Is NSMBU good? I played 1 and kinda enjoyed it and 2 was boring as hell. Wii was ok I guess. Every level of NSMBU is good - and it's designed with co-op in mind in a way other Mario isn't (hence no real flying), and it's at least based on Mario World not Mario 1. But although every level is good you can see the four phase level design in it and the lows are higher than the highs lower than probably any other 2d Mario game. It's probably the third best in the series but has no real ambition to challenge 3 or World for the title of best.

Tetris 99 Controller swap every time someone loses, and if they didn't make top ten (adjust as necessary) they have to take a drink.

CharlestheHammer posted:Mario party doesn’t really take a lot of skill to play. But doesn't it require equipment? I think it's joy-con only. Another question. For my own birthday gift coming up in about a week, I'm thinking of either gifting myself several indie games (SV (I've beaten before, Wargroove, and Baba is You), or a physical copy of either Tropical Freeze or Dark Souls, after trading in Octopath. Barring that I may pick up one of the older re-releases between RE4, which I'd have to wait for, FF VII, or maybe... Dragon's Dogma. Hellblade looks interesting too. Don't know what either of those last two are about or if I'd like the gameplay but I do like open-world games that I can explore.

It would be regarded so much better if the level design was the same but it looked and sounded less generic.
