I feel like a sense of pacing is part of Mario's skill set. For example, triple jumps don't work unless you move a certain pace forward, I think. Or stuff like side flips don't work certain ways. That might be part of why it's trickier for you.

Hogama posted:All you really need to know is provided within Star Ocean 2 itself. Claude, one of the two main characters you can choose for the game's "route" (largely the same events but there's a few mutually exclusive scenes and full-time party members), is the son of two of Star Ocean 1's playable cast. No idea why but now I want to play phantasy star 2.

Bad Seafood posted:No, no, I run all the time; but you don't have to run all the time. You can ease off the gas to course correct, reconsider a tricky jump, shake your hand out if you need to. With these advancing levels you can't let off, and since death means starting over from the beginning you slowly start to grip the control harder and harder after multiple prolonged attempts in sequence. skill issue ?

Set in the LoL universe, I guess. E for everyone 11-02-2023 My Time at Sandrock ($39.99) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpBS8qyZPdU Some kind of farm/town sim set in the desert. E for evertyone 11-02-2023 STAR Ocean Second Story R ($49.99, DEMO AVAILABLE) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5I73VNmmt8w Remake of an old JRPG, with a new 2.5D aesthetic and QoL additions like fast travel. Probably has some overwrought anime poo poo too. T for Teen 11-02-2023 The Smurfs 2 - The Prisoner of the Green Stone ($39.99 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ow7y6Y9IUc this came out of left field for me...it looks actually kinda good? Has kind of a Rachet and Clank vibe, from the trailer. 3rd person shooter from the perspective of being three apples high. Probably a typical middling, just sorta there game, but I was surprised at the presentation. Might be worth checking out? E for everyone 11-03-2023 Fashion Dreamer ($44.99 digital until 11/21/2023, $49.99 physical) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qw2lMtClsZ0 Enjoy fashion to your heart's content, and try becoming and influencer, sharing your favorite things with everyone. E for everyone. 11-03-2023 Ebenezer and the Invisible World ($19.99) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sMLNW0q5BU Sequel to A Christmas Carol. Looks like Ebenezer has learned his lesson and now fights for the proletariats, summoning ghost allies to aid him in a metroidvania. Just as Dickens had always envisioned. E for everyone  11-03-2023 WarioWare™: Move It! (49.99) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25n15yvg8SI Wario's back for another game of microgame lunacy! Behold his new voice actor!

Includes some Konami songs. Konami, huh? *sideeyes* E for everyone 11-14-2023 Hogwarts Legacy ($59.99, $69.99 for deluxe) Can't find a trailer video. Apparently the switch version has lesser graphics than the ps4 version, if you're concerned hit up youtube (do your own research!!). I never got into this wizard nerd poo poo anyway. T for teen 11-17-2023 Super Mario RPG™ ($59.99) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_kuPoLw9Wc Lots of hype for this game, early previews/hands on have all been quite positive from what I've seen. I never played the original, might need to add this to the backlog 11-17-2023 Persona 5 Tactica ($59.99 or $79.99 for digital) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzyWmfrNVsU I love a good tactics game! I guess the persona 5 crew are in chibi mode here, dunno what the plot is.

I traded in my copy of Mario 3d World (and Super Mario Party) to get TotK for $25 before I had a chance to play through Bowser’s Fury In retrospect, this seems to have been a Bad Idea

hatty posted:Didn’t know Tactica was rated T, guess our good friends Mara and Incubus aren’t joining us this time like, if an M game or R movie has a kid version to get them into the franchise, pretty standard, but why go with a Tactics RPG thing for that? Im guessing theyre taking their cues from Mario + Rabbids which has me more interested now

That Harry Potter game can barely hit 30fps on the Steam Deck at rock bottom potato graphics settings so curious to see how the Switch version fares I got the PS5 version for my wife and it was…fine? It looks nice and plays like a decent modern action RPG but I’m struggling to remember much about it Bouillon Rube fucked around with this message at 16:54 on Nov 5, 2023 |

I’m certain that the switch version will run better, even though it’s gonna look bad.

Best thing about Cumbros is that when they announced it and everyone laughed at the logo, they changed it to a lowercase i so it looks less like cum. It’s still cum to me though, damnit.

If Nintendo asked me for input for the Switch 2 I’d tell them I want to have two games loaded at once. If I could hop between Pikmin and Splatoon as easily as I can pick up my Switch and be where I left off that’d be so good enough for me.

sponges posted:Anyone have experience with the 8bitdo Arcade Stick? Thinking about getting one for some old arcade games. I have one, it works out pretty nicely. Buttons do feel kinda cheap, but they're easy to swap out if you want. I put in Sanwa buttons and made mine Super Famicom//SNES themed.  It is a bit small, especially on the left side, so you won't really be able to rest your arm on it if you're used to that with other sticks. While it's sturdy, it's also fairly light, mostly due from the missing space to the left you'd find on more expensive sticks, so if you go hard with arcade stuff it's somewhat easier to jostle around. I ended up putting some weights inside the case to help prevent that.

I have one of those Pandora Box things for arcade emulation, but drat that arcade stick looks pretty swish. The fact you can’t buy one that works across all platforms is super irritating though :/
