Hyrule Warriors has so much in it. I'm just gonna get through the story before I even touch adventure or challenges or anything like that. How hard should I be trying to get pieces of heart and skulltulas on my first time through each mission?

Probably 5, but 3 or 4 would also be strong picks.

If you need help deciding: 3 has you assembling a party out of generics, 4 gives a prologue chapter to each party member before they all come together, and 5 involves recruiting monsters.

I played a bunch of CPU battles until I felt like I had a handle on the mechanics, then I played a handful of online matches until I got in one that was really laggy. I'm still undecided.

I like the people complaining about how it doesn't have certain features like a training mode or doubles. It's a freaking stress test demo.

Doubles would be useful for a stress test.

Smash Bros is best when you frequently change the item distribution to include things like no items, lots of powerful items, themed item sets, etc. My personal favorite is to have most of the items turned on, with the item drop rate set to low.

So is the reason Nintendo moved away from all the old Donkey Kong characters because they were made by Rare? Because I miss Lanky Kong and the fat Kremlings who wear army helmets.

Diddy, Dixie, Cranky, and Funky are Rare characters. If you mean the enemies, it's because Retro wanted to do their own thing.

is smash a good single player game? ive never played one cos it doesnt seem like thats what its about and as far as online games go i only really like racing.

It's a lot better than most fighting games, but the Wii U version of Smash 4 was pretty lacking, which was disappointing after the 3DS version and Brawl both had great modes. Not much has been revealed about Ultimate's singleplayer yet.

There's a movie theater you can walk into where you play the first state of Super Mario Bros 1 while people watch and applaud. None of my friends ever came across it so I am not sure what activates it but I found it in a random building when I went back to collect more stars. anyway it owns and make sure to look out for it

It's the building that's labeled as a theater and has people lining up outside to get in.

didn’t that team make mario galaxy? for some reason i have the idea that the galaxy guys made splatoon.

Between Mario Galaxy and Splatoon, Nintendo had a pretty significant internal reorganization. Notably, they opened a new studio located in Tokyo, whereas previously all their in-house games were mostly done from their Kyoto headquarters. All the Mario games since then were mostly made in Tokyo (I believe 3D Land was their first outing). But I think that Splatoon is chiefly made in Kyoto, so it's very likely that they shared a lot of staff.

The armoured core game looks really stylish. What is up with that star fox thing though? Just some dlc for a Ubisoft game?

There's some Star Fox tie-in content for this space shooter game that I don't know anything about, but they're being pretty lavish with it, fully animated cutscenes and everything. That ain't cheap.

Why do you like it?

Over the years I've learned to endure the particular problems it has: too much dialog with not enough content, low difficulty level, some tedious parts, never shutting the hell up. Ignoring those, it's a decent RPG with lots of environmental navigation puzzles, and if there's one guilty pleasure I have, it's decent RPGs.
