The upgraded kickstand is so much better  It's actually embarrassing that Nintendo sold the first version at all, let alone for four and a half years.

Pretty much, yeah (the new gimmick appears to be that Kirby can inhale certain objects and gain special transformations like a car, a water balloon, etc) This video goes into a little more detail on things: https://youtube.com/watch?v=AqqnPvM9Z8g Larryb fucked around with this message at 18:20 on Feb 12, 2022 |

Libluini posted:Recently, I've tried Earthbound 0 too, and boy, that's true. This game doesn't have something as pedestrian as an "encounter rate", it's more like an encounter tsunami Earthbound 0 is a very neat game, just subject to the flaws of its time. The encounter rate is absolutely all over the place, but the mood is really unique. One of the encounter themes is downright creepy and it's great for when it shows up. At some point you'll get to somewhere really different from where you've been for most of the game, and my advice is to grind some EXP and cash while you're there. The gains are much better there than outside of it.

Completed the demo for Triangle Strategy and while the fights are nice, they amount for maybe 25% of the gameplay. The rest of the time you're basically just mashing a button to forward endless conversations concerning the dumbass plot with cookie cutter characters. Hopefully that's just a way to set the story and the rest of the game will have a better balance.

Yeah I went from extremely hyped during and right after the first fight to being cautiously optimistic to being very concerned about how much the rest of the game is going to follow the same pattern. Hopefully the first few hours are heavy on world-building and then the rest of it will be more balanced. But probably not.

I just loaded up Earthbound again and remembered that it has one-handed controls, which goes nicely with split joycons. Select/minus is the cancel button and L is the check/confirm button, and you can open the menu by pressing select and then L. The only thing you can't do in the game with the one-handed controls is ring the bell on the bike

Zulily Zoetrope posted:I mean, the SNES one does too. Just because they're not final fantasy pokémon grass style random encounters doesn't mean they're not encounters, and there's too dang many of them. it doesn't have an encounter rate. aside from a handful of set encounters the enemies are on screen and it's trivial to reload them to bypass them when you don't want to fight.

FFXIV Porn posted:it doesn't have an encounter rate. aside from a handful of set encounters the enemies are on screen and it's trivial to reload them to bypass them when you don't want to fight. Weaker enemies also start running away on SNES, while the NES only has an auto-combat option. So if there are multiple enemies that can't do anything to you, you'll have to hit auto and then go drink a tea or something. An ancient NES-title having auto-combat and running as tiny QoL-additions is remarkable, however. I think if I had to walk everywhere in Earthbound 0, I'd go insane. I can deal with slow combat or slow movement, so the ability to just haul rear end everywhere is what still lets me continue the game without it getting tedious. A hypothetical game where you move outside of battle as slow as in Breath of Fire II, and turn-based combat as slow as Earthbound 0, now that would be a horrible abomination!

Hopefully the first few hours are heavy on world-building and then the rest of it will be more balanced. As much as I desperately want Triangle Strategy to fill the FFT-shaped void in my heart, I'm almost positive it's not going to happen. I remember trying the first demo a while back and being pretty let down by the ridiculous exposition and cookie-cutter characters. The battle system was okay, but there simply wasn't enough of it and it sounds like that hasn't changed. Here's to cautious optimism, though.

Kirby looks fun, like a natural progression from Mario’s cursed cap. They should have partnered with Platinum so there are like dodge and parry mechanisms when fighting as a traffic cone.

I'm looking for a game that is not F2P, has a gatcha mechanic and is not loving Xenowhatever 100 hour tutorial. I like the idea of Genshin but having no character unlock guarantees is lovely (and it's not on switch). An action RPG that plays out differently based on the randomness of a gatcha is quite appealing.

Waltzing Along posted:Has anyone done the math on the MK DLC courses vs how many have not been released in the previous games? Your math is a bit off, but there are 113 Retro Courses they have to pick from if you include the 11 new tracks in Tour and remove all the retro tracks already in MK8 w/ the existing DLC Of those 113... -40 were remade for Mario Kart Tour -31 were never remade (GBA Super Circuit has the least remakes, while MK7 has the most) -65 have been remade at some point in the series. There is really no way to tell which tracks they're going to pull from.
