Support NeoGAF

[Danjin44]

I'm more concerned with the MTX strategy. World/Iceborne were littered with cosmetics.

I'm hoping there won't be MTX in Rise, but if it's there I hope they just keep it cosmetic. If it's actual monster parts for creating weapons and armor then it will kill the entire point of the game.

Glad I did some research before ordering Crystal Chronicles Remastered from Play-Asia. Apparently the Japanese version only supports Japan text and audio. A shame.

Anyway, next week Nintendo will announce their funancials for Q3 of FY2020. How much do you think Switch has sold? It should be close to 80 million shipped by then. It needs to sell 76 million to beat 3DS and at least 82 million in order to beat PSP and GBA. The rest are still too far away to reach that quarter.

Hmm. I hope 80 million or more. I want the Switch to be the obvious way forward for Nintendo.

I did 0 research and now have a Japanese copy of crystal chronicles physical lol

Do you guys think Monster Hunter Rise will get expansion similar to Iceborne in World?

The Capcom leaks had an expanded version coming next year.

As good a reason as any other to start learning Japanese, eh?

I am happy for new free content but I was bummed that there was no cafe announced.

Early Playthrough Suggests Bowser's Fury Takes "Roughly 3 Hours To Beat"

So, they’re saying Bowser’s Fury takes only about 3 hours to beat.

Bummer. I was hoping for longer.

 

[Shaqazooloo]

I might skip 3D World, it was my second least favorite 3D Mario and I'm not sure if I'm up for replaying it, I would much rather work on my backlog.

Might change my mind if the online and side content seems worth it.

Site is offline. 3 hours to finish, 6 hours to complete, better than nothing on top of a full 3D Wörld. I played it on Wii U day one, but somehow didn't care back then, so I'm double dipping and looking forward to.

the music is gold, man.

After watching Nintendolife's impressions I'm convinced that this is the modern day equivalent of Bubsy 3D.

Did they say if it plays as bad as it looks like it does?

- it's 30 minutes of complaints and they both played the game less than 90 minutes

Disappointing but not unexpected. I want more good 3D platformers!

A little off-topic but here goes anyway. Does the WiiU Pro controller work out of the box for the Switch and likewise, the Switch Pro controller work for the WiiU?

I've got an unopened WiiU since about 2015 and a pile of games for it, I think its time to give it a whirl.

With save states, rewind, and a real time clock out of the way, FPGAzumSpass is working on improving the GB core accuracy for MiSTer FPGA:


Guy is moving from core to core implementing new features and correcting deficiencies.

Unfortunately you have to buy a third party adapter

It is a fun game. Been playing it on gamepass and still am. Addictive.

 

[Danjin44]

This really gonna be useful when I want to practice the timing of my counter with the longsword.

The demo is horrid.

It is as it appears. The game did not inspire confidence.

It did the exact opposite of MHRise's demo did.

 

[bender]

It's a triumph. In an age when even bad games are mostly average and forgettable, this manages to set itself apart from the pack. It reminds me of something you'd find on the original Playstation before the DualShock was introduced.

There is a game on the eShop up for pre-order called Steam Prison and the price is $65.49. According to the internet it's an Otome Game. I have no clue what that is but there is a demo.

Nintendo has seemingly bought Astral Chain IP completely. Platinum Games comment only vaguely when asked. This is not the first time Nintendo and Platinum have exchanged ownership of IP, as previously Nintendo-owned The Wonderful 101 switched owners to Platinum Games last year.

 

[HollowKnight]

Pleasently surprised by Cyber Shadow. What a great game and the soundtrack is an absolute banger. Just listen to this one



At 2.07.05 Couldnt find the track anywhere else, so dont watch more than that track, if you dont wanna be spoiled.

 

[Hudo]

I mean it's not too surprising since Nintendo bankrolled that project, afaik.

 

[Jooxed]

 

[Shaqazooloo]

They couldn't resist the clickbait title.

 

[Xellos]

Probably going to be revealed with the much-rumored Switch revision.

 

[Newly Vacant]

Vaporware.

 

[Shaqazooloo]

Vaporware.

It's clickbait, basically he says it's January so theirs still most of the year left, so forget about it for now so it'll be a surprise when you do see it. It was a nothing statement tbh.

Hmm. Interesting.

Still, I stand by my reactionary and hyperbolic statement. It's vaporware and Bayonetta 3 doesn't exist!

 

[Umbasaborne]

Man, cant wait for 3d world plus bowsers fury. I think 3d world is still my favorite 3d Mario game. It was the first wii u game i bought with my wind waker hd special edition wii u in early 2014.

Game looks really neat. Other than the music I understand it was a one man show. Pretty crazy.

 

[HollowKnight]

Its well worth buying, if you like oldschool games, like Ninja gaiden and Blue Shadow on the nes. Used 13 hours to 100% it.

 

[Chastten]

Finally started Age of Calamity and it's a great game so far, much more cohesive than the first HW game was.

Also made me realize how much of a casual gamer I am, since while I do notice a few framerate drops here and there, it's by no means gamebreaking, both in handheld and docked. Seeing people claim this game is unplayable makes me chuckle. Those guys should have been there in the N64 days.

Yeah, agree. The only time I notice the slowdown is when I'm doing 2 player with my daughter and we're both doing graphics-intensive strong or special attacks at roughly the same time. I've seen it drop pretty low (10-ish fps) in that situation but normally it's not something I notice or care about. As you said, we've lived through much worse.

It’s the same when I read people complaining about loading times nowadays, when it’s a matter of seconds. I grew up with a C64 with the cassette player, which loaded a level in something like 10-15 minutes. If it loaded at all.

So Ruby Party is confirmed as the developers for Buddy Mission: Bond. This means that every single Koei Tecmo developer (apart from Gust) have now collaborated with Nintendo.

Crazy how close those two companies have become in recent years.

I don't think Platinum fully owns TW101 IP even now, if I remember correctly Nintendo of America renewed the TW101 copyright a few months ago.

 

[Umbasaborne]

I just bought one of these. Ive never purchased anything made by f4f before, but from what ive seen this seems pretty neat. And im a sucker for mario collectibles. It wasn’t horribly expensive either. Only 120 bucks, Compared to how astronomical the price of some of their other figures are at least lol.

hopefully its not a cheapo piece of shit lol

Nice detailed video of the Edge Magazine info blowout. Well worth watching ( im not biased at all )
