there's a minor audio delay in 3D All-Stars that's extremely noticeable and distracting when collecting purple coins

KICK BAMA KICK posted:Yep that feeling was on the money, been playing Hades all day and have had to like tear myself away to get any necessary things done or just to avoid wrecking my hands. Still only got the first Fury down an hour ago cause I am Bad At Games. Anybody on the fence just fuckin' buy it ASAP. Yeah, Hades is so absurdly, hilariously good I'm compelled to go out and find people to recommend it to. An action-rpg-roguelike with solid gameplay that also has great art and characters and dialogue and story and sound and humor, plus all dialogue voice-acted well just to flex. Absolutely leagues ahead of similar games and I can't bear the idea that something this lovingly crafted could slip under anyone's radar. I'm not even worried about overhyping it, anyone who can enjoy this genre at all will like it.

Waltzing Along posted:So I guess I am just asking about the advance games? Am I missing anything? Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 is, for the most part, a straight port of the All-Stars version of SMB3. However, Nintendo made it compatible with the GBA E-Reader and released a pretty decent set of extra levels on e-Cards. The Wii U Virtual Console release of this game includes all the released e-Cards directly in the ROM. I'd also probably count Yoshi's Island, which includes the "Super Mario World 2" prefix officially, and "Super Mario Bros. 5" prefix in prototypes.

Maybe I'm just searching for the wrong thing, but is there some kind of Mario Sunshine guide that tells you when blue coins are only accessible in a specific episode?

I was looking forward to them, got caught up in a meeting at work, and they were just gone by the time I checked in. It really bums me out. I know they're just pins, but...well it hasn't been a great few weeks so, yeah. Was looking forward to getting nice little pins.

This will probably work for my purposes. Looks like I can just ctrl+f "ep" and get a little nudge in the right direction. I don't want to outright go through a list just yet but I also don't want to spend hours in an episode looking for something I can only get in another episode.

Pablo Nergigante posted:There’s also a weird version of SMB1 for the Famicom Disk System called All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros. which was an officially licensed tie in for a Japanese radio show. It’s basically SMB1 but some of the sprites are replaced with caricatures of Japanese celebrities of the time There's also Super Mario Bros. Special, but that's more of a different (and terrible) game than another version of SMB1.

antidote posted:Man, did Mario Galaxy age well. What a wonderful game. It plays so much better with a Pro controller or JoyCons with a button for the spinning stuff. Not that it was a bad game before, just that a lot of the parts hampered by Wii motion mechanics are either paved over or fixed just by being driven by a decent gyroscope. Stuff like ball-rolling and ray racing is much easier because you have actual control over the drat things and not just crappy directional-tilting going "FORWARD->STOP->BACK->STOP->LEFT->gently caress-gently caress-gently caress-NO-NO-NO->*FALL*".

The Bloop posted:That would be stupid, the pins didn't do anything wrong. Idiot.  They didn't overpromise anything. They said straight up in the direct "while supplies last," it's limited edition for a reason. Len posted:I am not good at videogames Is this your first time going through SM64? Because the clip of you sliding with the penguin Mario is so far on the edge of the screen if you didn't know the ledge was there I can see how you'd easily fall off not having the time to react. I played the game so much that it seems so easy but I'm curious as to how much of the game I'm giving a huge pass because I just played it so much.

A lot of my Mario 64 muscle memory has come back just fine, but I've forgotten how high or low to aim when shooting Mario from the canon. Especially in that snow level, I think I died about three times because I either overshot or undershot from the canon.

Microsoft also has Cuphead and the Ori series on the Switch, and even before then they had Rare putting out games on the GBA and DS. Hell, even before then... So there's a fairly long-lived relationship between Microsoft and Nintendo that's probably helped by them being based in the same city. I highly doubt that we've seen the last of the Zenimax-owned IPs (Doom, Elder Scrolls, Fallout etc.) on a Nintendo platform. EDIT: On that note, the Oris will be getting a standard physical release outside of that crazy collectors boxset. https://twitter.com/OriTheGame/status/1306617379133124608

Oh that may be a good way of getting it since I don't see myself keeping the games unless I have to. Does anyone know when the 2nd Pokémon DLC pack drops? I'll probably buy them at that point at my friend's behest.

Wow, Hades is really good. I just started a few hours ago and beat the second boss. Got a god gauge attack from poseidon that trivialized the bosses. Do power ups start snowballing the way they do in Isaac? I've been waiting to see if boons multiply each other into crazy combos that make you feel overpowered the way it sometimes does in BoI.

Been going through the collection since it came out. 100% in the first two games and almost halfway through Galaxy now. 64 has aged very well in a surprising amount of ways, though Dire Dire Docks is uniquely boring and some of the 100 coin stars are pretty unpleasant. The camera doesn't always do what you want it to do but it's mostly manageable. Sunshine has probably the best core foundation of any Mario game, maybe movement is slightly too twitchy but jumping around and platforming can be a blast, and the hover and water dive moves really help round out that toolkit nicely. It's a shame this foundation is holding up the worst levels in the series, and there is a ridiculous amount of padding and jank that make the game so rough and inconsistent that it's hard to even call it a good game. It is a good game, just a frustrating and tedious one. Galaxy owns

Microsoft's had it beaten into them the hard way for over a decade that trying to roll their own games storefront was a very bad idea. They now also push their PC games onto Steam rather than the Windows store, and they know the value of being a publisher vs trying to be an exclusive platform outside their own console. The only thing that might change is no more Playstation copies of Bethesda games. It also might actually be good for Bethesda, as now they'll have someone who might actually smack them round the head for lovely gamebryo coding practices.

I really like doing the 100 coin stars in 64 and Sunshine, in most levels it’s just a chill time exploring every nook and cranny of a level and spotting another little stash of 3 or 5 coins and slowly building to 100. I just spent a cool 20 minutes tooling around Ricco Harbour sweeping up the money. If I fell from a girder, no biggie, I would soon find a new and quicker way to get back up to the same spot. Perfect to do while you chill with tv or a podcast

Finally finished Trials and Tribulations, what a great way to end the trilogy. Can’t believe I waited almost 15 years to play the second and third games. A shame the others haven’t been ported to the Switch, are they worth playing on 3ds?
