I started the Octopath demo as the hunter lady and there was a bunch of 'didst thou acten' type talk but I was cool with that but then it stopped being voice acted and i didnt want to read to myself in that voice, and then i remembered jrpg intros are often boring and this demo is 8 jrpg intros so i turned it off

only the hunter lady talks like that the other chars are normal

if they can price drop it in a year or 2 after the 2nd wave of big games hits I could see it getting into ds / ps2 territory

yeah the problem is how do you make a new one that would be a better buy than 8 deluxe. most ppl aren't gonna buy multiple Mario kart games on the same platform

I hope they instead use the opportunity to revive fzero or wave race or something

how is the d-pad on the pro controller lovely? just based on pics it looks OK

the contact pads underneath are too big/sensitive in a way that can produce unintended diagonal inputs

you can apparently fix it by opening it up and using tape to make the contact area smaller

I wonder how they’ll make the Pokémon in Saffron City pop out of that box thing at the top of the building. It’d be cool if they kept them 2D sprites.

they showed that stage at E3 and yes they were sprites

i might buy a 3ds next year and catch up on all the good rpgs I missed if there's another lull in the Switch release schedule

How about an actual direct for the (any????) other games you've got coming out this year oh and also please explain wtf the paid online is gonna be like cause you know that's coming out in like 3 weeks.
Seems weird to have their next direct be a Smash direct.

we already know all the fall release dates other than TWEWY and the date for the online service, the latter of which could just get thrown up on their website rather than a Direct

next real Direct will be whenever they're ready to show whatever their January-March games are

Its to hard to get Homealone 2 up amd running on an emulator. I have the super wolfdrive set up but it only dumps to smc files (outdated filetype and bad headers) andt the cartridge has a lot of dusty contacts

What are some digital-only games I should get on Switch? I'm planning on getting Blaster Master Zero and Picross

Celeste
Steamworld Dig 2
Lumines Remastered

standard USB C cable is fine for charging it in handheld mode, its only 3rd party docks that can brick it

Tales of Woe
Dec 18, 2004

just don't do anything that would have it running off of a 3rd party power source, it should always be running off of the battery or an official dock and you're good.

Tales of Woe
Dec 18, 2004

you need it for 3rd party games but i think some stuff like fortnite that runs its own servers and doesn't go through Nintendo's setup might be excluded. they haven't been clear on this yet

if this is like last year's its gonna be mostly filling out holiday releases plus whatever their big thing is for Jan-March

there's not much left in the pipe at this point unless they do more 3ds/switch games like fire emblem warriors or the captain toad port.

People are already speculating this might be due to subject matter being ill-timed, like a Smash unveil trailer involving an earthquake or something.

that's possible but it's probably just because millions of people in Japan don't have power right now

the Yoshi game is vaporware and makes it real easy to identify fake leaks since they always think it's coming out like next month

wasn't adventures basically an original rareware game that got turned into a star fox game late in development?

I'm only on Chapter 3 in Xenoblade 2 right now and it's already insane how many different systems there are to keep track of. I've heard the game gets to galaxy brain OCD levels later, and I'd normally balk at that, but I'm morbidly curious to see how far they can stretch everything.
the game's not tuned hard enough that you have to engage with every layer, i ignored the pouch items and aux cores for most of the game and did fine.
