I'm considering it. I enjoyed that game on Wii and 3DS. Tripple dipping is kinda nuts but it's in HD. I may wait for a price drop.

I don't see the appeal of HD re-releases.  My youngest was playing mario galaxy the other day on the wii and it still looked more than acceptable to me.  Now if they rerelease all these games again on Switch 2 in 4K, that might be interesting.

Hey, I've quadruple dipped with Metroid Prime so not opposed to it.

Christ dude. I'm not a doctor, but I've lied about being one on the internet before. Normally I advise you to rub some butter on it, but this definitely seems like it's going to need more than a dairy-based solution. I hope you get it addressed and alleviated soon.

If it's your middle leg, might want to lay off on the self help for a while.

If not, here's hoping they find what's causing your pain fast and that there's an easy-ish cure.

PC upgrades were a saga. Got a defective motherboard where only one slot was fully working, so that took me 6 hours of trying things until I concluded it was borked.

Bought a different board while I go through a return on the first. That got me right past the RAM problem, but it was shutting down every time I tried to configure DKMS for Nvidia drivers. Turns out it was tripping a power threshold. Put another 4 hours down for that.

Next day grabbed a new PSU, got the Nvidia drivers fixed, and now everything's running smoothly.

Except Baldur's Gate 3, which was really chopping until I turned off VSync. Then it's buttery.

Ah, the fun of PC upgrades. I've been fortunate in not receiving any defective parts so far. One of my biggest concerns.

Retros abandoned new IP has been revealed.

While Namco was making Prime 4 they were doing a new music rpg where the main character singing would be the main mechanic.

It was a disaster. So they were flipped to remaster prime and then do prime 4.

Probably not a huge deal for most parts. But an unknowingly defective motherboard is pain.

What can they do in Minecraft 2 that will actually make it feel like a sequel?

I just watched Nvidia show their new cards, i'll be getting one, not the super one. The PC i built has worked great so here is hoping it stays that way. Still PC gaming in general is so fickle, weird shit happens all the time.

Yikes, definetly have a pinched nerve. Hopefully its not something that will require surgery. Back pain is the worst.

For hidden weapons and stuff that's fine. But they actually hide things you need to progress the level. Once you've cleared out all the enemies it feels like a big escape room game.

90s PC level design, how I will never miss you. I have no clue what they were doing back then but me coming from a Nintendo focused background to those PC games like that one, or the Star Wars games, I have no idea where they learned to make levels.

So Switch 2 next week? Or later this week? the controller is leaked, everything is leaked. There is nothing left, show the damn thing aready.

[eurogamer.net]Eurogamer's Top 50 of 2024 (Ranked) Number 50 is Plucky Squire.

Has anyone here played the Plucky Squire?  It looks superb.  It's available on Switch, but I fear that the humble handheld won't do it's visual style justice and it hasn't released on Xbox One.

It has recieved mixed reviews. Too hand holdy and too much repetition is the main complaint. I'll check it out when it goes on sale.
