I didn’t. But modern Fire Emblem is a terrible game for weebs.

"Modern Fire Emblem is a terrible game for weebs"...did your copy Breath of the Wild not have the 4 hours of anime cutscenes?

This is rich coming from the person who thinks Fortnite is a good shooter.

There's good anime and bad anime. Zelda seems to be trying to recall Miyazaki. Fire Emblem seems to be aping the worst of the worst.

Too late on Fortnite. I've created a Gaf fanbase. I'll do the same for Fire Emblem haters. You're outnumbered. :messenger_sunglasses:

And voted for the Witcher 3 over Bloodborne.

From Software games, outside of the original Souls are overrated.

The reason why BOTW lost...not a real Nintendo fan. Confirmed. Just another casual Xbot...shame.

We did amazing for the demographics of Gaming Side. We will... take care of them, in time.

Today and this whole weekend, I have needed an IV of caffeine, lol. I think I might be both being too goofy and serious.

Doom eternal looks amazing on switch

The footage does look good, but it's easy to fake that. I'm super skeptical with this game, because delaying it for almost a year, then not having enough confidence to release a physical game, when the Switch is at its peak, in addition to just how tech pushing this game is, gives me worries.

I want to be wrong. I want Digital Foundry to call this an amazing port. Maybe that will very well be the case. I just hope we see hands-on previews and reviews soon, and can put the matter to rest.

If it's as good as it looks in this footage, it's a must-buy.

Just let me know when to roll the guillotine out of the garage and we'll get the NintendoGAF takeover started.

Wasn't the DOOM 2016 port some kind of technical marvel? I didn't play that one but I always heard good things. Is there a reason to believe this one might not be on that level?

It was a touch soft in portable, backgrounds almost slightly unfocused at launch, but got better and better. I really, really liked it.

Other than the reasons I suggested, the new one pushes much harder. I forget the numbers, but across the board, it has multiplied in complexity, from number of enemies, to level size, to gore (bits and pieces of enemies come off, right down to the bone), to much higher detail in everything on-screen. It would likely be a challenge, even for a developer of Panic Button's reputation.

You can't silence the Fire Emblem fans. I won't stand for it, there are enough of us to fight back. I can't believe I'm saying this but I'll even take Lionel Richie Lionel Richie 's creepy waifu help.

Okay, Fire Emblem trolling aside, lol, and I genuinely did have the same expression as the gif in that post, writing that.

Does anyone think we'll get anything at The Game Awards on the 10th? This venue always seems to have some Nintendo deets, even if it's smaller, like that Marvel game (btw, how is this? I understand it's by the Warriors team?) or Bravely Default 2. It was also pretty big for Breath of the Wild, many years in a row. Not to suggest anything, of course. Lol.

I think it's about time to see another Breath of the Wild 2 trailer, maybe as part of a 35th anniversary announcement. "We've got some great stuff planned for next year's anniversary, here's just a bit" sort of thing.

Also Reggie comes out on stage with a genetically engineered real life Lucas from Mother 3 and shoots him in the face.

Oh sure, let's just have a normal discussion after you and ExpandKong ExpandKong openly plotted rebellion.

Look, I got this guillotine on a whim last year, it's been sitting in the garage collecting dust, my wife keeps telling me I should sell it and how I haven't even decapitated anybody with it yet, just help me out here okay?

Look, there will be a place for you in the new world. If you admit Fire Emblem is a really unpolished dating/tea party simulator for weebs, dragging the mutilated, now casual friendly corpse of classic Fire Emblem battles behind it, in an attempt to excuse itself for its misdeeds.

This is all I ask, my child.

-Arcadia- -Arcadia- 's only fans wasn't making as much as she liked over the weekend so she has to come here and be mean to us.
She's promised me two FE waifus and a dukedom for my services and double promised to not stab me in the back at an opportune moment rather than giving me any of that.

This is a simp free zone. You'll find no more allies here.

Not convinced that gif wasn't just a clip from a home movie.

I don't know about TGAs. I don't know that they announce anything but with so many rumors and games that are in active development I have to wonder when they'll be able to release all of these games.

There are the confirmed titles: Mario 3D World, Detective Pikachu, Pokemon Snap, Bravely Default 2, Smash DLC and Shin Megami Tensei III + V. The games that are likely to show up: Zelda Collection, Mario Golf, Pokemon Remake, Goodfeel's game, and the Breath of the Wild Sequel. Then there are the wild cards; things we believe/know to be in dev: Bayonetta, Fire Emblem Remake, Kirby, 2D Metroid, 3D Mario, Arms 2 (?), Splatoon, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Monolith's next game etc.

I think the next two years could potentially be pretty packed.

Depending on how badly covid threw off development April-December 2020 could be bigger than 2017.

Yeah, I really feel like they might do it here. Big, western audience for big, western appealing game. If it's holiday next year, the social distancing ghost of E3, in June next year, is the next big opportunity, which seems too late.

I would go out of my mind for a brand-new three minute or so trailer.

I tend to believe that rumor that it threw everything forward a few months. I mean, Hyrule Warriors as the big November title? Games getting announced weeks before they come out? The giant empty space after Animal Crossing? None of this seems planned or normal.

I agree that next year could be packed as a consequence.

2020 definitely got thrown around but I wonder how many games targeting 21 and 22 did as well. For example while November 21 makes sense for the BOTW sequel it could easily now be a March 22 title.

I anticipate a good 2021 and 2022 for Switch but I think we will still be talking about how COVID slowed down development for a while.

Just admit you got filtered cus ya ain't got the chops for neither the git nor the gud and that they made you run back to your "combat's kinda shit, BUT THE STORY" games.

It was a bit fatecious.

One wonders how much trouble one can cause in a day, lol, but I do generally feel like the first one (or I guess now, the most recent one) was the most fair, the most based on your skill. It felt like an old-school challenge, and something so missing from gaming at that time.

With Dark (and I need more experience with BB), it felt to me like they got too self-aware. They created the games to be difficult, rather than satisfying (not that it didn't still have that). Cheap deaths, glitches, less polish... I wasn't as impressed. It's still an incredible game, but I felt like I was constantly being pushed away by that, until a new game came out, and I never played it again.

Maybe I'll give it a second try after New Souls.

Really depends on which entries you're talking about. With the Soulsborne games the quality isn't that consistent. Specifically Dark Souls 2 (which did exactly what you're talking about with the difficulty) and Dark Souls 3 are just not up there. Probably because those were made by the "B team" and it shows.

Out of all of them though, Bloodborne in particular just goes from strength to strength and doesn't really have weaker areas like some of the others, but it does take a while to really get the hang of.

So I was answering a survey for the game eiyuden chronicle hundred heroes on kickstarter and the last question was
"Please indicate which Platform you would like your game for: / ご希望のゲームプラットフォームを選択してください"

The last option stood out to me.

Betrayal is permanent. There’s no coming back from this.

Looks like current owners can get Bayonetta as well. Did they ever fix the awful performance? I recall seeing the Wii U version ran better than Switch.
FULL FLEDGED ESHOP COMING TO GLORIOUS BR-LAND DECEMBER THE 7TH, I'M GOING TO BUY SO MUCH RANDOM SHIT!
What did you use before? The US shop?

The devs said they were skipping Switch but were open to a port on Nintendo’s next gen system a while back. I’m not so sure that’s a hint though. It’s still bizarre to me that they would pass on Switch.

Nintendo will be releasing Super Mario Galaxy 2 DLC.
