New N64 Switch controller image... lol at that ZR button

It took them 3 old controllers to finally put the home button on one of them. But I'm happy they finally did. It's my only complaint about the snes one.

edit: what a terrible snipe.

I assumed the controller already has that hd rumble tech built into it like the pro controller and joycons. I wonder if the hey you pikachu mic works. Or the pokemon stadium transfer pak.

here's an even pettier home button-related gripe: it's possible to open Pokemon Lets Go using a Pro controller, but you literally cannot do anything once you do, including press Home. dumb!

If Konami isn't interested in developing games anymore why not license out their IP to studios that are?
I'm not convinced that Konami is entirely disinterested in making games, but with the departures of Igarashi and Kojima they don't have the same internal development talent that they once did.

These collections basically are licensing out their IP to studios (M2) that want to develop with them. They're also building a good relationship with LRG with the official Rondo English localization being a thing.

So yes, if these Castlevania collections sell well there's really no reason for Konami not to allow a partner who previously managed that IP to develop a game or two that will clearly sell in the market.

I totally get where you're coming from, but it's clearly inconsistent. When luanne's mom came home from prison and bill falls in love with her, they're in bills backyard and bill is grilling in a half 55-gal barrel setup. it has to be charcoal. it's clear there are no hoses or propane tanks leading into the grill, although i will admit there are no charcoal bags drawn. hank is eating the hamburger with his hands, there's no reason why he should overreact to bobby and peggy having charcoal under their nails.

Tried out Actraiser on PC and the art style is growing on me. It feels like a PS1 remake of the game in HD kinda. It just kicks rear end this game is back.

I want to get it on Switch but the Digital Foundry guy says there’s issues in that version so I guess I’ll wait to see what updates can do.

Actraiser impressions after about two hours and getting done with Fillmore:

For better or for worse Actraiser is a complete remake. The action stage maps are similar in some ways but are completely changed in others. You have a lot more moves (combos, a rising slash, a downward thrust from midair, a backslide, etc) and there's a system where you collect crystals from enemies that start giving you stacking buffs if you don't die.

The simulation stages are completely changed. You can't seal monster lairs until the towns ready to, and you have to go down into them for a short action stage which is mostly pointless so far. You get attacked by demons in waves in a not real great tower defense where you can use your miracles and can semi control a human champion. There are also resources to collect and spend on upgrading gatehouses for the tower defense parts.

It's interesting because they could have just slapped some new graphics and remixed the soundtrack and it would have been fine, but the game is completely redone, at least so far. It's a little janky looking, reminds me of a Sega Saturn game, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. If nothing else it's certainly an interesting experiment.

VladimirLeninpest posted:

Literally just got done with Fillmore after 2 hours s as well and feel basically the same way. So far I’m interested in playing more since the changes they’ve made are fairly true to the spirit of the original (down to your townspeople constantly bugging you). I personally like the changes to combat and really enjoyed the buffs you get when collecting crystals.

I could see it getting long winded, but i was genuinely curious how they would charge $30 for a remake of Actraiser, when that game goes by so quickly. It’s cool to see that they beefed it up a lot. I played the original not long ago and Fillmore couldn’t have been more than 20 minutes, so i was not expecting 2 hours worth of gameplay.

So far I’m impressed and glad i bought it.

These posts are kinda why I'm not getting it anytime soon. It seems cool if you have a desire to play the game more, but I don't really have any opinion on it outside of thinking it was dope when I played it a year or so ago.
