There's lots of free to play games on consoles. Some of the biggest are Warframe, World of Tanks, and Neverwinter. Marvel Heroes Omega has just come out too.

Holy poo poo, SMB3 sold 12m in USA+Canada? 3m in Japan is impressive enough given the size of the market but I had no idea it had that much market penetration in America.

I think it helps that SMB3 is the greatest Super Mario Brothers and potentially video game of all time. It is certainly my joint favourite ever!

Hello thread. I was away for the last few days loving on Super Mario Odyssey :D

I have seen some reports about the gross derail that occurred about Anime.
I would just like to stress that it is not a crime to like Anime or even talk about Anime when there are some excellent Anime games out there.

It is gross to imply that anyone who does likes it is only doing so for criminal reasons, such a paedophilia. This is a heinous simplification of what Anime is and is unacceptable. I know very little about Anime and manga and have had no real contact with it or Japanese culture, but I do not feel as though the whole genre should be tarnished in such a way that accuses other posters who enjoy it of sexualising children.

When we discuss anime games (I am fairly certain things like Persona and Tales of Berseria were really well received here in games) that we do not devolve into these kinds of baseless accusations. I would really appreciate it. Thank you all! :D

Are some moons in Mario Odyssey only collectable after beating the whole game? I am assuming a couple I can see but have no idea how to reach are there due to me not having opened up something yet.

Internet Kraken posted:

Yes. A large number of moons only become available once you beat the final story mission. Other can't be acquired until certain events happen in other levels.

Good lord! That is quite awesome. I am still bumbling about on Cappy's ghost world and I can see a couple of moons all high up and have been trying to get Goombas to fly up and get them. I did get tantalizingly close to one, but assumed I am probably doing something wrong. Back to that Flower World then! :D

Argue posted:

There are indeed more moons unlocked later on but if you can actually see the moon I believe it should already be reachable.

Oh. In which case I am completely mystified as to how I can get up that high in the game world. I must be missing something :D I will take a screenshot when not at work.

The Wiifit and Mario maker Amiibo are the only ones I own. I have not removed them from their packets yet because I have no idea where I would stash them and they might get lost or dirty thanks to my cats.

I just pre-ordered Xeno 2 collecters edition along with the custom pro crontroller. I've been wanting to get one for a while and now seems the perfect time.

Also in Odyssey: is there a way to set the music that plays on different worlds? I did the thing with the toad in mush kingdom where he makes you set the music and could have sworn there was a message that said how to it from anywhere but if there is I can't find it.

And another thing: I can't seem to get the amiibo feature to work. I was able to scan the bowser amiibo and get his outfit but any other time I try to use it I just get the failure message. I must be missing some step.

You have a magnificent avatar! :D

Not sure you are going to be able to post in this thread.

You were banned over a year ago and if you had not come back in doing the same thing as you did last time, then I would not have minded and I do not think the other posters in the thread would have either.

Now I'm curious: What dumb E3 rumors perchance? (And why the banishing?)

It was a version of this thread from two years back, and the poster in question stated that they were on the inside of Nintendos workings. They knew about upcoming games and made several predictions with the caveat that they would leave the thread if they were not true.

One of which was Overwatch on the switch. Another of which was that the Switch would be dead and only $199 by the October of Mario Odyssey's release.

They did not happen and they left the thread. I cannot fault that, really. I like when people follow through on the things they say.
