I need to know if it's a console/handheld hybrid because that's the only way I can play Monster Hunter with a real controller and I love the series but I really don't think I can play much more of it on the 3DS my hands are too big.

C-Euro posted:Speaking of Nintendo, anyone here been to the big Nintendo store in NYC? i'm bumming around the city for the day tomorrow and wondering if it's worth a trip there. also do I get any cool Spot-/Streetpasses if I take my 3DS there It's worth it if you're in the area already. It's kinda small but it's packed with neat stuff and cool merchandise. When I went December they had a Mario Maker exhibit with some original concept art by Miyamoto and some other folks from the old Mario games which was pretty cool to see. But I don't think there's enough there to specifically plan a trip to that part of town. My girlfriend and I literally stumbled upon it when we were dodging Christmas crowds and had a good time, it was some Harry Potter Finding A Secret Magical Shop poo poo.

C-Euro posted:Yeah my wife wants to check out the Rockefeller Center which is like two blocks away from Ninty so I figured I'd dip in there while we were around, thanks. Debating whether or not to lug my 3DS around all day while we're there, I fuckin love Streetpassing for real. Go then you'll like it. Re: Streetpassing, Starbucks used to act as a hub but it hasn't been working for me lately, they changed their WiFi from att to google and I suspect that broke whatever their thing was.

codenameFANGIO posted:Miiverse had better continue on the next system. They will, Miitomo is a thing that's reasonably popular and I assume the "pay gold (or real money!) to dress up your Mii" thing is intended to tie into other Nintendo stuff instead of just existing in a random app that does nothing else.

elf help book posted:i feel like if no new games were ever made again, i would still have good games new for me to play for the rest of my life Same but I think this would be true even if it was just stuff I already owned. It'd definitely be a longass time to get through the backlog and that's before taking into account stuff like Civ and Xcom that I could dump a ton more hours into if I ever had time. And then replaying Metroid Prime every year etc.

You know how there were those stories about people who wanted to kill themselves because they couldn't live in the world of Avatar or whatever. That's basically me but because I can't play Breath of the Wild right now.

I can't wait to get home from work and explore the vast Hylian Wilderness on a big tv, finding some shrines and getting their fast travel points so that I can solve their puzzles during my commute the next day while playing on the portable NX tablet.

As long as it becomes their new handheld and thus I can play Monhun on a real controller I'll be happy. It will play Zelda so we know at least it isn't like a phone app or something.

fozzy fosbourne posted:I'm realized I'm ok with it if it's primarily portable. I'm pretty stocked up on gaming in front of a tv, but wouldn't mind a more powerful portable that hopefully is a little more comfy to hold onto. Lmao I've been assuming it's a portable that docks into the tv but I just considered what if it's literally like a gamepad that doesn't use a tv or anything, some insane monkeys paw thing where its all portable and I'm doomed forever to play Monhun and all Nintendo games on tiny devices. Nintendo can't be that stupid but they also totally can be.

The NX is a millenial that plays games for you while you're out and about, you can call him whenever and he'll describe what's happening and follow your instructions so it's just like you're playing yourself even while you're driving to work or at the grocery store.

I love the new Donkey Kongs but the secret worlds in both games are kinda underwhelming. The temples are awesome but the fruit sky stuff is a lame finish to games with otherwise great settings and music, and they're not really hard or interesting in terms of gameplay.

I've been playing my 3DS a lot lately and realized it's such a good system. I came late to the party and only got one last year because of Monhun but I have like a dozen+ games for it now and all of them range from very good to great. And there are a bunch more I need to get. It's one of Nintendo's best consoles.

tbh playing 3d world with my gf the game gets pretty engaging from world 2 on. It's not like, "hard" but the level design is sharp and fun, I never felt like I was just coasting and I still died a bunch. And it is actually quite tough for someone who hasn't been honing their gaming skills for decades. If they made it harder it'd be dumb imo. Same with 3d land which I've been playing off and on, I haven't got to the hard levels but there are a bunch of bits I got past and thought if I wasn't an autistic career gamer that would've been tough.

Bobnumerotres posted:idk. games should get hard once the player has a feel for the mechanics, but mario games pull their punches until the very end. like kirby games though that doesnt stop them from being fun, i just really like getting my rear end kicked Yeah I guess my point is I think the game is appropriately tuned for most of its target audience. I may be wrong because I'm trying to average out the difficulty between myself who has been gaming autistically for 25+ years and my girlfriend who has literally never played a game before. But I think a lot of stuff that you or I can do on autopilot is actually fairly complex if it's not hardwired in your blood. Like that autoscroll level early in world 3 was brutal.

The reveal is definitely going to be Reggie walking out on stage playing it, pretending to have just noticed the crowd and being like "Oh hi, do you guys want to see what I'm playing?" at which point he docks it on the stage and keeps playing Breath of the Wild on a huge screen.

If the NX is actually portable why wouldn't they release handheld games on it?

I got an update that they added some of my all time favorite games to the SNES virtual console on 3ds but I didn't bother clicking on it because I've already bought them on the Wii and paid the upgrade fee on the Wii U eshop and I assume they want me to pay full price to buy them again.

mabels big day posted:Its because the gameplay is fun but not especially hooking, and the other parts of it don't really keep you coming back either. It would be way better if the "levels" didn't force you to exit the mansions. It loving sucks that anytime you do anything E. Gadd calls you and tells you you beat the level and teleports you away and is like "guess what, my research says there are more ghosts!" and then teleports you back to the entrance of the mansion so you can walk back to the place you just were at. It's super charming and well presented though. I like it and I don't.

Tbh its unlikely you'll be able to have more than a handful of games at a time if it's 32gb internal storage. Wii U is already pushing it. Unless you want to carry around an external ssd everywhere.

The true gamers will ship their Switches to some guy in Seattle who charges $200 to solder a bigger dpad onto the controller.

I wonder if wiimotes/nunchuks will still work with this thing, since the split up controller isn't that many buttons. It's been nice to be able to get a 4 player Wii U session going with the junk I've had lying around for a decade instead of needing to spend hundreds on controllers.
