Everyone here seems to be conflating two separate ideas. People are talking about Gameboy/N64 classic consoles, not Gameboy/N64 games as the next Nintendo Online game selection.

I told my Mario 64 obsessed 5 year old son that his mom and I are effectively 'done' with the game (we beat it for him when we first showed it to him, now he plays it), and he just doesn't understand why we'd ever get tired of playing it.

People are talking about both ideas because Nintendo have done both NES and snes minis and NES and snesflix so it's perfectly reasonable to speculate about a potential n64 mini/online service?

He's played both Galaxy 2 and Odyssey, and STILL goes back to Mario 64. I respect the game and enjoyed playing most of it the first, second, fifth time through (and I played it when it came out), but goddamn I am so done with it now. Edit: I should mention that we haven't even gotten all the moons in Odyssey yet. Kid's got the wrong priorities. Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 18:57 on Sep 17, 2019 |

Yeah it was sort of a big mood when I realized that the only person I know who can come close to beating me in MK8 is my own son.

I said come in! posted:Has he played Mario Sunshine yet? Yes, actually, I had forgotten that one. He sort of likes it. I'm not a huge fan of it, but at this point, I'd rather him be flinging water around Delphino Plaza than either restarting SM64, or loading up the completed, 120 Star file we have, going into Tick Tock Clock, and then asking me to play it for him. I love the kid, I love his enthusiasm for video games (among other interests like going outside, of course), but holy poo poo... no.... no more SM64 That being said, I'd play a smoothed out, HD remake with better camera handling in a heartbeat. It's really the old, technical bullshit that gets in my way, especially playing something that feels so perfect, like Odyssey.

I don't think theres a Daemon X Machina thread round here, but are the Immortal Boss Fights balanced for 4 players even if you only have a team of 2? I've been playing local matches with a friend on our lunch breaks and we're having serious trouble even on Gunfort.

You can bring some bots along if you're playing alone, but I'm not sure if you can do that if you have a partial party.

Super Metroid somehow kicks more rear end than I'd remembered, and I remember it kicking a lot of rear end. I thought I'd find the controls bad, or the map small, or the graphics limiting, but it still rules in every except for the grappling hook way. Since Super Metroid was released, there have been sooooooo many good metroidvanias, which i think is why i was preparing myself for mild disappointment ... but the way super metroid navigates you through its world feels really unique and actually very unlike most metroidvanias!!

Most Metroidvanias seem to take inspiration more from Symphony of the Night and subsequent Castlevania games than from the Metroid half of the pedigree. I wish more games evoked the same feeling of exploring a hostile alien ecosystem.

I've been playing local matches with a friend on our lunch breaks and we're having serious trouble even on Gunfort. I just about managed it on the demo with the AI partner. I took two assault rifles and two handguns, focusing my fire on the kneecap armour and then the weak points underneath, or the ones on the big beam cannon whenever they're exposed. When the flying drones got too numerous I'd switch focus to them and try to collect the ammo they drop before it hits the ground, and I'd switch to pistols if my rifles ran low. You're way more vulnerable when you're not above the gunfort, so don't even bother with the ones on its underside unless you have the bazooka. Keep boosting out of its way every time it jumps, and try to stay in the center of the map to make sure you don't get shield slammed out of area.

I wish more games evoked the same feeling of exploring a hostile alien ecosystem. Specifically, I find that newer metroidvanias expect you to "almost complete" a big zone before moving onto the next big zone. there will be a few locked doors, and a few places you can't reach, but otherwise when you move to a new zone you're like "ok, I basically did everything here." Whereas Super Metroid has a really weird and interesting beginning where you spend a tiny amount of time in Crateria, then the game forces you into Brinstar, and then the game forces you into Norfair before you've seen barely half of Brinstar. And then most of Norfair is unreachable, and riiiight at the point where you start to feel overwhelmed it loops you back to the beginning, and you finally have the opportunity to really dig into all of the big areas you've only had glimpses of so far. edit: it also whips rear end that you can fight the first big boss super early if you can nail a slightly tricky walljump. really impressed with how much the game lets you sequence break.

Deathstate surprise released today and I'm stoked! I don't usually like bullet hell games, but a dash of rogue-lite and  to mix makes it lots of fun. I spent a lot of time playing it on Steam!

So, I'm at the point right after Yashiro joins in Tokyo Mirage sessions. Is it worth finishing the game on my Wii U, or do I wait for the Switch version and start over?
