An Actual Princess posted:not 11 and it's a shame. 11 rules and would be perfect for the switch. Too true! Speaking of ports waiting in the wings, are Square and Konami locked in a game of chicken to see which one ports their big PS3 franchise installment first? The MGS collection implies more games are on the way, while Square has been polishing lots of ports except one aging trilogy...

Any more goon takes on Nintendo Live? Tokyo's doing the next one in January, what are the odds USA does it annually? I would posit the east coast, but Washington is the Nintendo State.

As someone who's played the Mario Wonder demo  I would recommend Wonder, it won't scratch the remake nostalgia itch but it's a drat good time and has plenty of replay value.

Greatly enjoying the early stage of "everyone just playing a game together and figuring it out," really hope the game isn't broken/"solved" for a good while.

Between the Gunbrella demo and Eastward timed demo (and half-off sale!), the indies are rocking my Switch in a way that will give Mario Wonder some work to do to win screentime (as opposed to winning by default).

Andorra posted:Is that what Super Luigi U is? I bought NSMBU on the switch a while back and had no idea what that part of it was. Abridged Mario U courses with 100 seconds per stage, Luigi physics included (higher jump, slippery momentum). Especially challenging to get the star coins, I wound up looking up videos of Star Road and felt the vanilla journey was worth playing.

Can't see sale prices for games I already own, looking them up on Nintendo's site or a third party would have helped. Thanks for calling out some great discounts though.

Automata 10 Pack posted:Now I think you’re just trying to save face here. The vine is spawned from the ! Block and the set piece is built around the ! Block. You wouldn’t be able to finish the set piece without the ! Block active. I haven’t seen this area referenced without the ! Block in any guide. I’d love it if you showed any proof of this area being accessed and finished without it, but I’m pretty sure I’m correct about this. I replayed the level with and without the ! blocks and it appears to be a separate bonus area just for ! users.

ImpAtom posted:Celeste is wonderful but comparing it to Mario feels like it does a disservice to them both, neither is really aiming for remotely the same thing. NSMB with the co-op bubbles and Celeste with the accessibility options feel like they opened the way for Wonder to be so forgiving with players' time. A tangential connection, but I like it.

MaxDuo posted:This reminds me of how I hated snaking in DS. It was annoying to just do it nonstop. Snaking split my friend group back in the day. A couple of them used snaking nonstop and of course won their races, the rest of us acknowledged the skill of it while also feeling it robbed the game of the kind of fun/feeling we wanted out of it. 8 implemented its skill gap much more gracefully and I've enjoyed the rebalancing to make more kart combos viable.

Sally posted:nah always felt the same. i rarely used Geno. or Mallow for that matter. Peach+Bowser+Mario are OP. Geno's attacks looked cool but kid me couldn't nail the timing on those charge specials at all. Everyone else's timing made sense, Geno's I could only land by accident. Latest Mario Kart DLC is great fun and the new credits sequence is very sweet.

I fought... two-thirds? of the enemies I saw, and even after skipping most of the volcano area fights, I absolutely wrecked the Rangers. Still need to grind to get on Culex's level, though (currently level 18 across the board).

All of the Mario RPG rematch fights have been fun so far. Grinded everyone to level 28 across the board (picking Magic Defense Up each time) and figured that was close enough to 30 to take down 3D Culex - nope! Was utterly cornered with everyone dead but a mushroomized Mallow, managed to perfect-block a series of lethal attacks long enough for him to turn back to normal and begin reviving everyone, except Culex locked me out of items and cast his strongest spell to overkill Mallow and punish me for my hubris. I'll get him next time, though. All hail Yoko Shimomura for both versions of the soundtrack.

feetnotes posted:You know, if you forget about the platform in the game you’ve been playing for 27+ years… My "this was an issue 27 years ago and it's come back to haunt me" moment was searching for the cliff where the Paratroopas help you up. It's not very intuitive! Special shout-out to that vine, though. As noted, it IS possible to make the jump, but that requires letting go of the down input for the single frame that Mario will dangle from the very bottom... which is beyond me.

Mega64 posted:Also RPGs weren't exactly big on handhelds at the time. Before then you basically had the early SaGa/FF Legend games, the first Mana game, and Pokemon. Golden Sun was arguably the first handheld RPG to be in the same scope as those classic SNES RPGs. Also, coming from GBC, there was huge appeal in a handheld RPG with SNES-level graphics (shading! anime hair! particle effects!). So much of GBC's visuals was "thing A runs into thing B and disappears, perhaps resulting in a crunch sound."
