I was going to say that I like Nintendo Life especially ever since Stuart Gipp started writing there. But holy hell someone really wants me to buy Atelier Ryza 2.

I just suddenly realized I never finished Xenoblade X. I probably hit a boss I couldn’t beat without some grinding and took a break that I never returned from. Such is the life of most RPGs I purchase.

I guess I should really get to it before returning to the outside world

Edit: also I’m mad as hell no songs from X made it into smash bros what the gently caress

If you hit a roadblock you can use the Scout system to hire another players character for a few hours. A max level ally will solve your problem grind-free.

I think you can trigger it but I remember it being really inconsistent though it seemed to happen more frequently during the Shredder fight where you had to throw them at the screen to damage him. So I feel like there was something going on behind the scenes to increase the probability in that fight

Yeah that fight was a total bitch. I refuse to google this on the grounds that I am glad it's still mysterious 25 years later.

Is anyone else having issues with their Switch acting like the inserted game card has been removed when waking the device up from sleep mode? It works again when I re-insert it, mind. It's been doing that to me since... I wanna say December or January-ish.

Regardless that game kicked major rear end. It was the first SNES game I ever got besides the pack in Super Mario World

Can't blame you for not knowing that it came back last year, it was a pretty quiet release that no one cared about after the game was in development for most of the life span of the Xbox One.

Super excited for this now that I know about it. Turtles in Time was my favorite beat 'em up for ages, and this looks like it's channeling that hard.

It had to be triggerable. I could get pretty regularly by tackling enemies first and then they'd be tossed. I ended up playing TMNTIV so much that I ended up figuring out the actual ways to pull off moves which was neat.

Yes it was triggerable. You had to hit the enemy enough for them to double in pain, then move into their space, then (and this is key) STOP PRESSING ANY BUTTONS ON THE DPAD so that you aren't moving at all. Then press whatever button was used to throw them. Sent them flying to the screen. If you were pressing any directional buttons, you'd instead slam them onto the ground.

Made it to the late title card in BD2. Enjoying myself well enough so far but MAN it would be nice if JRPGs put a little more effort into combat animations. After playing Yakuza 7 it's hard to go back to two models swinging in each other's general direction.

It looks like it's $20 off on Amazon and might come with a 7 day Nintendo online pass and 90 day Amazon music pass. Other storefronts have it $20 off as well.

By the way, Best Buy is doing 10% off eshop cards right now, in addition to Mario Kart 8 being $20 off

Just found out that in that trailer Mike Patton is doing the classic TMNT theme song lol

Mike Patton amazes me because I think folks (or at least younger folks) don't realize how great his vocal range must be. Sure, everyone knows him for that weird voice in Epic or Midlife Crisis, and he did voices for monsters in Left 4 Dead and the Darkness...but then there's also the gorgeous cover of a Commodores song.
