All I see is a broken image.

wiki links are weird. Here’s a better one 

Like the entire series was building up the Patriots with the whole “the Patriots did this things or that thing” shit effectively making them this creepy “man behind the curtain”  group with ultimate power, 4 was meant to be the climatic ending to the battle with them, and 2 revealed their “face” finally, so going back to putting them in the background and just hearing about the Patriots and what they’ve done is kinda boring 

I think they backpedaled due to how at the time MGS2 had been recieved in favor of a set of twists tied instead to 1 and 3 wich were more beloved.

I keep forgetting that at the time MGS2 was so hated. Man, I wish that wasn’t the case, so we could have had a return of AI Colonel 

It was mostly because of the bait-and-switch reguarding the playable character (i mean, it was one of the many point of social commentary the game had, but to be fair, it can pass as false advertisting since i don't remember spots, the cover or the demo showing at all Raiden and instead making you think it was another full-on Snake game).
What i find more hilarious is how a game 20 years old scarily predicted what the internet would have become by now with the overflooding of informations, fake news, echo chambers and those who try to keep order with them deemed as bad guys.

Just goes to show even Kojima ain’t perfect when it comes to Metal Gear plots. Half the twists revealed in later metal gear solid stories end up being retcons that are confusing to fit into the overarching plots, especially when it comes to 5, where Kojima was apparently restricted up the ass in what he could do because of Konami

Nintendo's Korean social media leaked an announcement about it yesterday too. They quickly deleted it, but GameXplain (and several other outlets) were were able to verify it. 

Chances are that it's coming soon, and I can't wait.

I’m honestly surprised the OG HW never got a demo if this happens tbh (tho not sure if the 3DS version got one)

The original HW was more of a side game, I guess? It didn't get the same amount of focus. BotW has basically become a new series to Nintendo at this point.

And back then I don't think Nintendo were dishing out demos (or test fires) as readily as they seem to be doing with the Switch.

I thought I remembered the 3DS version getting one but I might be mixing up memories of just watching a lot of youtube videos of the 3DS version out of fascinatation with how they managed to port the dang thing down to such a device.

Well they were able to cram Xenoblade Chronicles on the thing

That's true, although 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 had already geared me up for the idea that Wii-quality games could run on it.  Something about a current-gen console game, and one that is entirely about having ridiculous amounts of enemies on-screen at once as a key appeal, was particularly impressive to me (although of course I'm pretty sure even on the New 3DS they only display about half the number of enemies that the console versions do, if that lol).

HW can technically run on the original 3DS (albeit poorly) while XC requires the New 3DS. Both games are impressive, HW is especially so.

<--Wants Brawl and Smash 4 stage editor elements added to Ultimate.

It would divide what is left of Ultimate's online community. Half the kids would jump to melee and 2 smaller communities is less desirable than 1 big one.

I think you're overestimating Melee there.

@Sega DogTagz Again, other fighting games have done just fine with having multiple entries on one system, or porting older entries to current hardware, I don’t see how Smash would be this special exception to the rule that would harm Nintendo and the, incredibly large, fanbase

To be fair I don't feel like Melee's fans would find Nintendo's quality of online play to be acceptable lol.

It would be nice to have at least straight ports of the old games for preservation's sake, but I'd want them to include the option to have everything unlocked from the start.  From Melee onwards, Smash isn't really a game where it's that fun to start over on a fresh save and do everything again.

Melee can be played online with rollback netcode via slippi. The Melee community won't give up rollback to play on the switch at this point

I just realized if they do this it will be limited time until March 31st 20xx so nevermind 

Not sure if you managed to clear the boss, but I only just saw this and figured I'd suggest that some of the Mechons in that region do carry level IV crystals with Daze Resist (specifically the HASTE and MISER bots) so if you're still on that one you can probably farm some gems to craft for the party you're using.

A problem with Xenoblade 1 in particular I find is that the later stages of the game can be really overwhelming for first time players. They start throwing a lot more enemies with spikes and debuffs (without spoiling too much, there's a unique quest boss tied to one of the characters' skill tree quests in the end game that has a spike that causes instant Daze so absolutely make sure you stock up on Daze and Spike Resists) and I don't find the game actually does a good job of fully explaining these things (it's arguably better than X and 2 in terms of tutorials at least). I lost count of how many times I walked into shit that caused spike damage without realizing it, especially on the Wii version which didn't have indicators at all.

Yeah I beat it. But the boss after is also annoying cause they also summon mechon. I’m just gonna level farm for a bit cause I’m 67 and I hear it’s a lot easier at 70

No better time to jump back in when the Battle Royale's still hot

Ah, my favourite fighter

schoolbag 

Schoolbag was Joker the whole time. He just transforms into the flesh vessel when in Smash 

Beleth?? Seriously?

ffs Nintendo, I wanted Baphomet

well i just found out sonic spinball is a game that exists, so i guess this is the world we live in now

Celeste is a Good Game ™

Took me 11 hours to complete and had over 3000 deaths tho, christ hearing people say “for an average playthrough it should take no more than around 6 or so hours” makes me feel bad lol

Also, negatives, I hate the hotel level. That, and the “final boss” of the story I think drags on way too long 

I eventually broke down and used some of the accessibility features to finish the game, and I don't regret it.

I think more games need to have those included

Fine by me.

Tails and Arle fans on the attack!

You mean the "Galeem and Dharkon" final battle theme? Yah, it's a damn great theme to fight on FD though.

But I'd give it second place, because NOTHING beats Brawl's FD theme. Best FD track in the entire series.

The first game had a lot more sections with just written dialogue since the budget was not as high as later entries and the people involved were expensive.

He only really has a few speech bubbles even. Just overall his presence in that world is pretty small outside maybe the opening section
