The only one that really messed me up was XB 2 putting your menus on start and the map on the top face button and the map has a tiny load it has to do if you hit it by accident.

If Skies of Arcadia on GC isn’t crazy expensive that’s the GameCube game I recommend if you need hours.

Hogama posted:The Wizardry creators weren't shy about the early games cribbing heavily from D&D (it has THAC0!), presumably they just didn't do the sci-fi modules. But even if they didn't have too much of the hidden futuristic early on, Wizardry 1-4 were also kind of (deliberately) goofy at parts; the first game has things like a Blade Cusinart, a Monster Allocation Center, TREBOR SUX!, and this message right outside the final boss's room: The Wizardy’s they put out in Japan now seem like they’d be fun, but there’s no way it’s worth them translating them. I’ll take all the dungeon crawlers I can get.

I’m fine with “it was future earth the whole time” if it’s established, but getting hit with it as a twist is “it was all a dream” tier.

I should try Harvestella. What’s the ratio of farming to combat and how much watering before I can make a machine that does it?

ImpAtom posted:I assume people want to play it in English but I think the only case of them translating a Japanese version to English was Fire Emblem 1 and Fire Emblem 1 has less text in it overall than Mother 3 has in the first area. They could just do what Nis did for the Crossbell trails games and hire the fan translators. In that case the game was fan translated, they just took their patch down and maybe made some tweaks for the new versions.

The fact those Crossbell games came out in English means nothing is too niche. Translate em all. Edit: The switch versions of those games are excellent btw.

I thought Snowrunner would run like rear end on switch but aside from the menu taking a few seconds to load it’s pretty good. I did manage to make a really weird wall of mud by accident, but if anyone was wondering. Mudrunner runs even better.

eightysixed posted:Is it any good though? the Nintendo Life Review didn't seem to like it very much. It’s one of the best tactics games. The remakes improvements I felt were good and rebalanced some broken units. The game still has some stuff that’s weird to do through the menus with regards equipment but the game itself is excellent.

Chieves posted:One strange thing I've noticed playing with zoomers is that they have a harder time navigating a 2D platformer more than 3D. And I'm talking about Mario World, not Celeste or anything. I'm sure it's because it's what they grew up with, but that's so alien a concept to me. My kid prefers the 2D ones because the camera in 3D games is too hard. They can play Mario Wonder no problem, but us playing Minecraft together is way harder.

Good Citizen posted:A note on this, if you already played labyrinth of refrain then the dungeons are almost exactly the same as that game with a new story molded around it, at least up to where I played. I was kind of annoyed it was almost the exact same game and gave up on it Maybe I missed it but I played both and they didn’t seem the same to me? The first stratum is really similar looking.

Good Citizen posted:Maybe I'm overstating it because it's been a while but I remember feeling like I knew exactly where hidden walls and such were in the sequel. Also maybe it diverges more later on and I just didn't get far enough. Yeah I can see that for the first chunk of the game. It introduces all the same dungeon traversal mechanics as Refrain at the same speed at the beginning which doesn’t help. Although you do get more tools than you had in Refrain at a decent clip.

Mephesto Zieg posted:I really like strategy games in theory but am terrible at them, I've purchased and attempted to play few of them but never get very far. I made it through about half of Mario Rabbids 1 and a few missions into the sequel and made it through the first few levels of Into the Breach. Any recommendations for something that will hold my hand a bit more until it clicks? Basically babies first strategy game? I would try FE engage on Normal difficulty. You could also do 3 Houses with a caveat that you spend a lot less time just playing out SRPG maps. Both on normal are pretty manageable for any skill level, although it might be a little touch and go the first few maps.

John Wick of Dogs posted:What's funny is when they do it based on distance from the player instead of distance from the camera so when you pull out the camera sometimes you'll get a giant object in the foreground moving at 15fps obscuring everything else. My favorite one of these is in Fallout NV where you’ll see a rad scorpion just scoot past the horizon with almost no animation.

Gumdrop Larry posted:I don't mind Nintendo experimenting with IPs but Star Fox 64 is such a weird situation because as far as I'm concerned it was close to perfect and one of those few examples where you literally just want more/different content with no messing with the formula. They absolutely nailed the arcadey feeling with a given run taking around a couple hours, but tons of variation on possible routes and little NPC interactions between them as well as just enough variation with landmaster levels and blue marine without them being too different from the arwing. Perfect tone, perfect level of challenge and formula to make you want to replay it infinitely to get high scores and see everything. It could be Miyamoto’s fault. If you look at his recent credits it one of the few he actually directed.

Randalor posted:Mrs Randalor wants to take up streaming as a hobby and mostly just plays Switch games. Does anyone have any recommendations on a good, cheap capture card she should get for a laptop, or a particular design of sketchy cheap Amazon capture card to look for that works decently well? I know she wants to participate in the Final Fantasy V Four Job Fiesta this year, so ideally she'll have her stuff ready to go by June. I think a lot of sketchy Amazon capture cards are all going to be produced at the same place. I had one for PS3 capture that was like 20 dollars and it sort of worked but idk that you could have ran a decent looking stream with it. Use a stand and just film the tv with an iPhone. Use the CRT mode on FF 5 pixel on the switch, possibly even hook it up to a lovely CRT using composite cables, shoot it in a fake wood panel lined basement.

Kevyn posted:Galaxy itself is on Switch, included in Super Mario 3D All Stars along with Mario 64 and Sunshine. It only had a limited print run a few years ago so you’d probably have to hit up eBay to find a sealed copy. I keep meaning to order a Japanese copy of this for my kid because they’re still at least reasonably priced. Nintendo also localized the first FE and released it digitally on the switch around the same time and pulled it off for the same reason.
