I'm going to catch some heat for this, but I can't stand PH or ST because of the controls. On another note, does anyone know of a guide anywhere to 100%-ing Ages and Seasons? I'd like to play them on the 3DS Virtual Console, but despite some research I still don't understand how to transfer progress from one to another.

Beat game 1, the game will give you a password after the credits. Choose "Linked Game" when starting the second and put in said password

Talk to snake in first game, get password to give to snake in second game. At various points in second game, somebody will give you a code to take to the first game. Head back to your cleared first game file and find the person. Usually after a minigame they will give you a reward and a code. Go to the second game and tell the oracle of secrets (they live in the tree) that code to get the reward in the second game too. If the reward was a ring, do the snake thing again instead. Was that what you needed?

Slamming on the brakes when you're going full speed is bad but if you slow down a but beforehand they won't raise a fuss.ThornBrain posted:
Y'know, now that you mention it, it is weird how the train takes damage whenever you run into things instead of it being the other way around.

It makes me sad, but I can't play Spirit Tracks, Phantom Hourglass or Skyward Sword due to the controls; they just frustrate me too much. I hope that all of them get remakes with more traditional controls.

Commander Keene posted:There are mods for the DS Zelda games that map the controls to more traditional Zelda-style button controls. True. I have seen them, but portability is nice. I don't mind that they made those controls an option, but I am frustrated that they didn't make traditional controls one as well. As for Skyward Sword, my only hope would be to possibly get very creative with mapping in Dolphin. With few exceptions, I've always disliked motion controls. The only Wii game that I can recall where I felt that the motion controls added to the experience, or at least didn't detract, were some of the Wii sports games. I did have fun with the original boxing game that was packed into the system.

Can you throw the Spirit Train in reverse and escape the Demon Trains, or is it just automatic game over if one winds up coming at you on the same track?

You can reverse and try to escape, and you can slow them down a bit with the cannon. It's easier to avoid them altogether when you can though.

Maybe they made teleporting so situational so that you can't just go 'oops gonna crash into a demon train lets warp out', though a better fix would be doing a Back to the Future/Earthbound style thing with requiring you to reach and maintain a high speed for a bit before it zooms you away.

It's a small detail, but I like how when you use the boomerang to light the torches, any frozen grass it passes over thaws out. I notice that while the mailman doesn't read your mail out loud any more, he still has been snooping. Ethics are surprisingly lacking in not-Hyrule.

Thinking about it, the Lost Woods "puzzle" seems like it could really start to overstay its welcome, if they come up with an excuse to fall back on it every time for a lack of other options. Having the entire overworld accessible via preset railways only must really limit the kind of complications they can actually throw at you en route...

Oh cool, just caught this. Glad to have a chance to see Spirit Tracks again without actually playing it - the DS controls never actually bothered me much, but I tried to replay it once and was so turned off by the rail travel that I couldn't push through and never touched it again. A shame because my memory has it being a step up in dungeon design from Phantom Hourglass, especially without the repeated central dungeon - excited to see how it lives up to my recollection.

 I remember now, the exact moment I quit when I tried to replay it  Something about combating armored tracking enemies on the predefined tracks took it from being a bad overworld idea to just not being something I wanted to deal with. A shame, because I like the dual-screen map and (like I'd remembered) the overall dungeoning seems like a step up with some fun ideas that I'd like to see again in newer games.

It's nowhere near as hard as it looks in the video. All you have to do is make a big clockwise loop without slowing down and messing with the tracks like they did. The first train won't catch up in time, and the second one will be on one of the upper right paths when you get there so you just take the other path. whitehelm fucked around with this message at 03:54 on Oct 30, 2019 |

Nah, it's not super hard, it's more of a cumulative feeling of "why do I have to do this" when I just want to freely move from place to place in a series that is notable for its overworld design. Just screwing up and dying a couple times, and realizing that it's all thanks to a constraint that is completely at odds with the rest of the series, I just had enough
