  1. As a Toon Link main all through Brawl, I am mostly playing Little Mac and loving it. He's pretty much the opposite of Toon Link in every way which makes it kind of an adventure. I went into the game planning to get into Palutena or Wii Fit Trainer, but neither of them can match how fun Mac's raw power is.

     

     

    Overall probably the best entry in the series IMO. Online has been a blast and I'm looking forward to getting some friends over for 8-player.


  2. While playing through Bravely Default recently, I found myself looking on the internet for information on the game's robust class system, including information on some classes I hadn't unlocked yet, and strategies on how to best combine class abilities. I always feel a little bad doing this, because I feel like I'm subverting the developers' intentions and potentially ruining the experience for myself.

     

     

    Do developers understand or even expect that players, especially experienced RPG players, are going to look ahead for this information? Do you personally try to avoid FAQs, guides, walkthroughs, or outside sources of information on games? Is the discovery and experimentation part of the fun for you?


  3. Oh man, I've never heard of this game before, but Level 5 is possibly my favorite developer (Rogue Galaxy & Dark Cloud 2 are some of the most underrated games ever made IMHO.)  Might have to finally get a 3DS, this sounds fantastic.

     

    I'm glad the 3DS is finally building its catalog of solid RPG titles that every Nintendo handheld kind of inexplicably has.


  4. Fantasy Life, a new 3DS game from Level-5 (the Professor Layton people) is due to be released October 24 in North America. This game's been out for a while in Japan and about a month or so in Europe and Australia, and it's being described as Animal Crossing with more of a combat/fantasy focus.

     

    Any other North American gamers excited for this? Any Japanese, European, or Australian players already enjoying it? Will I finally live my fantasy life as the world's most adorable blacksmith?
