Unrelated but someone in this thread said that in Mario Odyssey there was a hidden kingdom entrance somewhere in the sandwich kingdom? I beat the game and don't remember that and Google is doing nothing but telling me where hidden moons are. Can anyone elaborate or give a link? tia
It's all the way in the back corner on a little island and it takes you to the Mushroom Kingdom.

Pretty sure once more of the main titles like Pokémon, Smash, etc. come out, the switch sales are going to skyrocket even more.

Gonna be hard to beat, the Wii was in almost every household.

Star Fox games should just consist exclusively of tube shooters. Any other kind of level just blows.

its so weird. everything about it has nothign to do with star fox and its all about fox trying to have sex with the fox babe, while dinosaurs mumble in their fake language about the cosmos. ive gone back to watch video of it for the same reason and it seems like a fake game.

It was nuts they weren't doing banjo kazooie style babble they were talking in their fake language but the language was just English with the letters swapped so like every H was now A so all the dinosaurs just sounded like they were trying to talk after a stroke

Star Fox Adventures isn't very good but it's a bad Zelda clone so it's nothing like any other SF game

I have very fond memories of Star Fox Adventures even if it's actually bad. I should try to find a way to play that again

Konami has a cool beat em up where youre a dude but then you turn into a sexy furry after killing enough dudes but overall capcoms are much better to play esp crap like aliens vs predator and the dnd ones, and data east and taito ones had better thematic stuff like cleaning the welfare queens and crackheads out of nyc

lmfao I was looking at it on my 4.7" phone with the brightness all the way down. I figured it was one of those big dev carts with a lovely label

I'm really surprised dinosaur planet never leaked

Oh ok thanks. Im guessing it's that thing where you can just see a little bit if the Mushroom Kingdom to grab a star real quick? Yeah that would have been nuts if you saw it and didn't know it was a kingdom (I didn't know until I got there)

i only ever played star fox 64 and i'm not even sure it was good, it was just really fun at the time and it's fun remembering the extremely earnest voice acting. i keep thinking "i guess i'd play another one," but i've never bought any of the sequels.

Those Pokemon Switch games look bad, which is sad because a Switch remake of Yellow sounds amazing on paper but it seems like they made every mistake designing it they possibly could (Pikachu hairstyles aside)

I think it will be nice till the new regular Pokémon game next year. It's pretty much fluff till we get the real thing but at least it's not as bad as Pokémon go

it's a reskinned Rare game that got rushed to market after Microsoft bought Rare, so the first half of the game is typical 3D Rare crap and the second half is them rushing you through all the parts of the game they didn't have time to finish

like, when you finally meet the big bad guy at the end of the game, it's immediately interrupted by a cutscene where a voice from off-screen tells the boss to give you the final macguffin and then you just leave with no boss fight and he dies off-screen or something

Rare 3D games are all huge collectathon scavenger hunts, so i can't even imagine what one that's rushed to market would be like. like it would be like if someone really horny for nintendo animals was asked to design a puzzle and hide all the pieces, but they drew cartoon boobs on half of them and left them in the box, i suppose.

I haven't played it since it came out so my memory's fuzzy but I remember it being structured way closer to Ocarina of Time than it was Donkey Kong 64. It wasn't very good but it was a straightforward action adventure kind of game. Also I remember Andross being revealed as the actual main badguy in like the final 10 minutes of the game and the final boss was you fighting him in traditional star fox spaceship combat which was absolutely not a part of the game at all until that point lol

it turns out a rare game that gets cut off mid development it's just an action game instead of being wall to wall bullshit

it's a good think that Diddny kong racing was already nintendo brand charactesr or else miyamoto might have seen a picture of Wizpig and said "hm, he looks a little like Ganon, doesn't he? this is a zelda game now, thanks for your cooperation."
