I'm also fine with that, but the Vita was a failure, so... Maybe hopefully not TOO much like the Vita!
-
It still reads to me as "keep supporting 3DS until people stop buying 3DS". Plus... is a new Fire Emblem really that big of a surprise, considering they have this really solid engine already that's proved to sell very well? /shrug

I love that the Switch has so many different options for input. Means there's potential for many different types of experiences. I'll buy Mario and Arms and be very satisfied with both. (Probably. Assuming I end up enjoying them.) Bring it.

Why would "a developer" know all the details about virtual console and the subscription model. They wouldn't need that information, nor would Nintendo just give it to anyone who happens to be "a developer". That's not how this works... Unless they've got some other inside information...? This article seems like speculation out the ass based on half-information. I, too, wish they would do a goddamn Netflix style subscription for their Virtual Console offerings. ):

Yeah those seats. I wish they were that big. Maybe I wouldn't be in perpetual physical pain! ;_; I get it, but I don't think there's a situation where I'd feel too cramped to play a Switch that I wouldn't also feel too cramped to play my 3DS. YMMV tho, obviously.

I think I'm rarely in a position where I won't have the ability to charge a device for more than 2.5 hours, let alone the probably more likely average of 3-4. That and I basically already carry a bag with me everywhere, if I intend to do any sort of idle activity, so fitting it into my pocket isn't a necessity for me. It definitely would NOT fit in my pockets, though! Maybe if I still had them classic JNCO jeans from my childhood hehehe.

Naw it's about the size of a Wii U gamepad and I've used that while lazing around the apartment before. I dunno exact measurements.
-
I actually wanted the colored JoyCons, but ended up getting gray because that's all that was available when I finally found some available preorders. O: I figure I'll just buy the neon ones whenever I buy a second pair of JoyCons a year down the line.

I absolutely adore the name and the colors of their logo and ESPECIALLY that fucking *switch* sound is just so goddamn perfect. Wii U was great, and the name was terrible. ): I'm fairly optimistic about the Switch's future, even if what we know of this launch year so far is underwhelming (I personally count at least six games that I know I want to try if not buy outright this year alone, and I also know I will never get to all of them, so it's not very underwhelming to me, but I can understand people's trepidation for sure). I don't for a second buy Reggie's "3DS will live on!" rhetoric, but who knows. Maybe I'm dead wrong on this one! But if I'm not, that definitely means the Switch will have proportionally more internal support than any system since, well, since the Game Boy's launch. It'll have it all! No more games split across two platforms! Please please please! (I think even if I am right, though, it will take maybe a year or two. The 3DS' install base is still huge.)

Well Metroid and Star Fox don't sell. That's not too surprising. Kirby's absence might be notable, but there's still a possibility it'll show up (that is, be announced?) before the year's end. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Nintendo Directs start picking up more again. Nintendo isn't a company that announces its games years, or often even months, ahead of time anymore. Breath of the Wild being the big notable exception, and Odyssey just because it helps more than it hurts to say "Yeah we do have a new Mario game!" Also I'm curious to see if indie game support picks up. I wouldn't hate to see the Switch become a Vita with Nintendo games. O: Dunno if I expect it, but I have heard mostly positive things with regards to indie dev and Wii U/3DS. Mostly...

Bloodborne (Dark Souls 2 successor (Dark Souls successor (Demon's Souls successor)))
Twig replied to melmer's topic in Video Gaming
I like frenzy. :awesome: I think the point is not about playstyle, but about cohesive game design. The estus flask fits the Dark Souls style of gameplay. The blood vials do not, because the games are not about grinding. Yes, you can grind, of course, but that's not how the games are designed. Except in this one tiny (big) little (huge) aspect. -
I didn't know who Tarkin was so all I got was bad CG and otherwise a fun evil dude being extra evil to other evil dudes. Also Vader just mercilessly killing dudes was fuckin rad and y'all know I don't give a FUCK about this pointless light side dark side nonsense. It was very Bad Guy in a way that lots of (main/canon(??)) Star Wars stuff just isn't. I think it sold Vader to me in a way that he'd never been sold before, because he always just came off as cheesy*. (Including his other main appearance in this movie!) *Note that "cheesy" is not a mark against him, as that's... Star Wars in a nutshell, and whatever. Just saying this was a Vader like I'd never seen and it was cool. If horrifying. Many humans died! EDIT: I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really want to see some Big Budget Star Wars Films that have nothing to do with light side vs dark side. Please let the Han Solo and Boba Fett movies be that. Please please please. The universe is so fun. It's so big. There's so much more to it than the Force!

Twig replied to melmer's topic in Video Gaming
Yeah the blood vial system is bad. The brick boys (brutes??) drop em fairly often (I think even all the time?) tho and there's an easy place to grind them early on if you need to. -

One question is answered when people go into monotone dead-eyed fake interest when I mention I'm a game developer. -
