Achmed Jones posted:this is gonna sound like flame bait, but are any of the (mainline) pokémon games actually worth playing as an adult if you have never played one before? i'm sure i'll get one for little jones when he's a bit better at reading to help him with it; i'm more wondering if there'd be anything that'll pique my own interest. i like cute things and generally think pokémon are cute if that helps. Depends on what type of gameplay you want. Since the Let's Go games are based on gen 1, they have much more involved cave systems and dungeons than Sword and Shield, as in they exist (albeit at the cost of the traditional wild pokemon fights). So more interesting adventuring. But Sword and Shield have more mons and lots of legendaries to fight and collect, plus some good DLC. If you have access to a DS, the Black/White and Black2/White2 games are chock full of side content and postgame content, which dropped off a little with the shift to 3DS. And of course there's the gen 4 remakes this month which I can't really speak to.

4 year old daughter asked me about my Mario shirt and half an hour later she's playing with a handful of amiibo. Mario, bear (banjo), growser, and nest (ness) are making a birthday party together. This is gonna result in an inevitable broken amiibo but holy crap worth it. In other news I'm in the undersea palace of okami. Maybe this time I'll actually finish the game!

Read After Burning posted:Now I wanna know what the most fragile Amiibo are. I only have a few, but my guess would be King K. Rool? That cape seems like it could snap off kinda easily. Of the four I'm letting her play with, Mario's fireball is pretty delicate I think. I think Rosalina is pretty fragile. The wand and Luma.

Thinking about either Persona 5 Strikers or Immortal Fenyx Rising. But I'm also thinking about how I have dragon quest xi and three houses in the old backlog and I shouldn't pile it deeper.

Late to Year In Review talk but looking over my statistics, it says: Witcher 3, 77 hours Hades, 53 hours Okami, 42 hours But those statistics look super high for my actual playtime (skipping lots of content, haven't done the Witcher 3 DLC yet, etc.). So I compared it with the Play Activity log of my user account. My switch itself is claiming that I've spent 50 or more hours in Witcher 3, 30 or more in Hades, and 25 or more in Okami. And those figures look a lot more like the actual hours recorded in my save data. I wonder why the Year in Review stats are so much higher?

Finally finished Banjo-Kazooie, roughly 23 years after renting it from a Blockbuster back when they, y'know, existed. It's a good feeling to wrap up that bit of unfinished business after all that time. Next up: wrapping up the second Famicom Detective game. Xenomrph posted:How often do first-party Nintendo Switch games go on sale on the eShop? Just about never? I'm talking stuff like Yoshi's Crafted World, Super Mario 3D World, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Kirby Star Allies, etc. I remember first-party titles on the 3DS eShop almost never went on sale. Nintendo has almost never done more than a 30% discount on an eshop sale. You just missed the New Year's Sale. Next up is March 10, when they always put 1 or 2 Mario games on sale. Then the E3/summer sale. So you've got a nice long wait ahead.

GreatGreen posted:I like RPG's and would like to play the Xenoblade 1 re-release but I have a question about it. You get 3 types of xp: character levels, weapon skills to increase, and character talents/passives. Gear and gems to enhance said gear. There's a friendship system that allows each character to equip talents from other characters, gated by friendship levels and how many named monsters you kill. And gear in the original made you look like a clown, but you can choose your appearance in the remaster. It's super complex and doesn't really matter if you just outlevel enemies by even a little bit.

In a textbook example of adding insult to injury, the eShop website was just redesigned and all the wii u games disappeared.

This is could be the best Switch year, maybe ever. Could be as much as Xenoblade 3,. Bayonetta 3, botw2, gen 9, Mario rabbits 2, and anything announced at the summer direct.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Nah, you're looking at the wrong franchise. I'd say Yakuza's the more likely comparison, where they stick to the old map, toss in the old existing mechanics, and then iterate a whole bunch of new ones and content into it to make it much more populated. Now I'm thinking a crossover game with Kiryu in Hyrule would be aces.

So here's something that might be of interest to anybody that grew up on Nintendo Power. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njJxIds8aoQ Video Game History Foundation did a reunion of the original staff, including Gail Tilden and Howard Philips. Lots of fun details in here, like how the Princess Toadstool -> Peach transition happened, the cover artist for NP that refused to play videogames, and the story of the Dragon Warrior distribution. It's a fun watch!

Twelve by Pies posted:As one of five people who not only knew Rhapsody existed but owned a copy and enjoyed the hell out of it, I am unreasonably excited about this announcement and it's probably a day one purchase for me.  Is this the playstation or the DS version? Looks like La Pucelle Tactics is the PSP version in English for the first time. It'll never happen but English releases of the Rhapsody sequels would be amazing.

So weird to have Radical Dreamers about to be playable. I hope more Satellaview games are revived like this. Also I just rolled credits on Kirby and the Forgotten Land and drat that sure was an amazing finale. Diving into the postgame for sure after that wild ride.

Read After Burning posted:Was there ever talk of Nintendo porting Detective Pikachu to the Switch (or making a sequel)? I'm currently playing the original game on 3DS, and for some reason I seemed to remember there being rumors of a Switch port or sequel. It was announced in 2019 and is still in development. It's a sequel of some sort, we don't know if they're porting the original.
