Nintendo life played an hour of peach showtime

Pretty much confirms what we were all expecting. Super simple. A to jump, B to do an action, X to remind you the controls. Super easy...but charm out the rear end. You're on a stage the whole time so everything looks like a prop, like at one point she's riding a wave and you can tell it's made of cardboard. Tons of little details, like he mentions when she's ninja peach and goes into water, she sticks a bamboo above the surface to breathe through.

Frame rate dips during some transformations, otherwise it looks really good. The reviewer left feeling more excited for the game! God it looks loving rad

In conclusion, once again nintendo has insulted us hardcore gamers with more zero effort trash, and when the gamers eventually rise up nintendo will loving pay for this

Kirby and the Forgotten Land (the best game on Switch btw) has the perfect balance of casual + collection/completionist + hardcore challenge. Sad that every other dev is simply too lazy and hides behind the "it's a kids game" shield when 70% of the people who will buy it are 35 year old men.

Yeah I watched my son 100% Kirby and it was surprisingly deep and challenging. He kept making me help on the very last few bosses but I would just die immediately and get in the way

One of my kids plays Kirby on switch online SNES and when they play the one where you can hit a button to summon a helper bud they call it Blueberry and while I was watching them play once it killed an enemy and I heard “why thank you blueberry.”

Mavis Beacon may teach typing, but Kirby apparently teaches manners and gratitude.
My youngest got Kirby /Forgotten for his 7th(?) birthday and he devoured the game in a few days. He goes back and replays it every couple of months. He hasn’t been nearly as excited about Return to Dreamland, Star Allies, or any of the other ones. Something about the 3d viewpoint vs 2d side scroller just hits his little brain differently.

It's funny to me that the controls have three buttons and one of the buttons functions is just to tell you what the other two buttons do

Burnout Paradise. Red Faction: Guerrilla or RDR ain't bad though. Comedy option: L.A. Noire, or any of the Saints Row games.

I wish Test Drive Unlimited still existed; i would just drive around in that game listening to podcasts all the time.

I can report that Test Drive Unlimited works fairly well on the Steamdeck if you simply copy over the game from a PC. Annoying to set up all the keybinds unless you connect external KB+mouse, though. Shouldn't be too crazy to port to the Switch considering it's using tiny amounts of power on the Steamdeck, but I wouldn't be surprised if the source code has been lost considering neither that version of Atari or the studio exists anymore.

"Cowgirl" is an epic 90s techno track by UK group "Underworld" which played in the film "Hackers".

Cool. I wasn't aware.

For other open world kind of play, there's lego city cit undercover, aka gta jr.
It's full of collecty stuff and lots of cars to steal. Often on sale cheap. Cars drive like a lego car would though.

How is it on Switch? Was gonna get it on Switch unless it's somehow more amazing on Steam Deck (don't really use mods for roguelikes so that part is irrelevant) but want to make sure it's a good port first.

instead of Let's Go they should do something more ambitious. I think I would have been vaguely interested in Let's Go if they at least made Kanto feel a little fresh rather then it basically being Gen 1 with watered down gameplay.

but then again, it is TPC/Game Freak, so ambitious is not exactly in their lexicon.

Also, today I learned in an alternate reality they got Let's Go Psyduck.

quote:

According to Masuda, he decided to make Eevee the mascot of the other game due to its popularity and abundance of fan art. He had previously considered Psyduck but ultimately changed his mind, stating that it was due to Psyduck having a headache.[18]

Coincidentally, I was listening to that album (Dubnobasswithmyheadman) last night.
Even 30 years later, it's such a damned dirty epic record.
For that matter, anyone who doesn't have it, and also Second Toughest in the Infants needs them both.Those are a couple of the cds I will never, ever get rid of.

On a technical level, pretty much 1:1 playing it on Switch vs Deck except for Steam specific stuff like achievements and obvious stuff like comparing scores against Steam friends.
