I bet they'll announce that Castlevania GBA collection tomorrow.

Birthday discount codes work against recent stuff?

Last time I remember getting a birthday thing from Nintendo it was like, the most early Switch games, then I think the time before that, it was Wii U games or something.

Isn’t getting 100% in FFX-2 a lot easier if you do two play throughs and take the different branching paths in each instead of trying to get it in one run?

Yeah, in fact that's kind of the intended way to do it, but since it is possible to get 100% in a single playthrough if you're very thorough and do everything exactly right, a lot of people try to do it that way.

Feels like they're just slowly trying to release all the 2D Castlevania games. SOTN/Rondo already exist in that weird Sony exclusive bundle. Anniversary Collection has a ton of stuff including Bloodlines and Super. Feels like they wanted to put Dracula X somewhere and also help pad the relatively tiny group of the newest collection.

Castlevania Games Re-Released In Anniversary:

NES Castlevania
NES Castlevania II Simon's Quest
NES Castlevania III Dracula's Curse
SNES Super Castlevania IV
GB Castlevania The Adventure
GB Castlevania II Belmont's Revenge
GEN Castlevania Bloodlines
*Kid Dracula Bonus doesn't really count



Castlevania Games About to be Re-Released in Advance:

GBA Circle of the Moon
GBA Harmony of Dissonance
GBA Aria of Sorrow
SNES Dracula X lol



*Sony Exclusive Does Not Count lol:

*PSX Symphony of the Night
*PCE Rondo of Blood




2D Castlevania Not Re-Released:

GB Castlevania Legends

PCE Rondo of Blood

PSX Symphony of the Night
PSX Castlevania Chronicles

DS Dawn of Sorrow
DS Portrait of Ruin
DS Order of Ecclesia

WII Castlevania The Adventure Rebirth

*PSP Rondo of Blood Remake in psuedo 3D may not count




So they could do this GBA collection, a DS collection, and then leave the SOTN, Rondo, Rondo Remake, Adventure Rebirth and Legends for last?

If they were less greedy they could have probably just split this pretty evenly into all non-metroidvanias in one collection and all metroidvanias in another instead of 4 different collections but oh well

Rondo of Blood is already getting a re-release. It's the TurboDuo release of the US Dracula X Chronicles's Rondo localization on actual TurboDuo disc exclusively from Limited Run Games! Just buy an ancient TurboDuo or any one of the two dozen artisanal hardware accurate indie consoles that'll play it and you're good to go.

It's...okay. It's not as good as Stardew, Trio of Towns/Story of Seasons 1, or the Rune Factories. But if you don't have any of those or are really itching for more farming it'll do.

After playing for a couple of hours yeah, PoOT is fun and I'm enjoying it but it's not as good as the old HM/SoS games. Honestly the FoMT remake is better, and cheaper too.

Also I gotta say I'm annoyed at the loss of "time stops in buildings" that the old SoS games had, they kept it in the FoMT remake at least but it's really annoying in PoOT when someone is on the opposite side of the house or something and I hate wasting precious time running over to talk to them. Just let time freeze in buildings again! (I also hate this about Stardew.)

I noped out of playing Rune Factory 3 because time kept moving in buildings, like I don't want any of that poo poo. But for whatever reason it was less of an issue in 4.

I'd be fine with just buying Prime 1 if it were like £20. That seems incredibly unlikely though. I hope Skyward Sword didn't bolster Nintendo's confidence about how much they can charge for a single old game. :ohdear:

Look I never said past me was smart :v:. Also I got so disgusted at that point after meticulously following a guide only to be screwed out of a measly probably a fraction of a percentage point, and I really didn't feel like playing the whole goddamn game again just to get it.

Comparing the ending I eventually got with the one I would have gotten if I'd bothered, I'm happy with my decision.

It's just going to be 30min of some old dude in a fake office talking about some party game DLC character and mii skins, then a slightly different 2min metroid dread trailer, a picture of a platinum tweet saying "yes bayonetta 3 is still being developed", then they will show off some multicultural LGBTQIXz# kids at the skate park kickflipping the switch OLED and squinting at the screen at a picnic in the sun but otherwise generally having a good time, then a fake fade to black before they show off 2 NES games you've never heard of!
