Thanks.
Looks good.I first watched it on YouTube at 1080p on a 65" 4ktv and it looked kinda bad in all honesty.
On the other tv and my tablet it looked better. There are lots of new screens in the Switch 2 thread.
I've been playing The Cub.
It's a spin off from Golf Club Nostalgia.
It's a cinematic platformer. Really beautiful looking game, lots of instant deaths but instant respawns. There's some stealth sections.
It has some awful Scandi music on the radio that you can turn off. There's some trial and error gameplay which is mildly annoying. Game was like €3 and it's totally worth getting it for the experience. Like Golf Club Nostalgia it's a really interesting portrayed of a post Armageddon earth.
Also been playing The Red Strings Club.
Normally I despise these drink making coffee bar games, but this one is good. There's a strong Cyberpunk narrative going on and the drink making makes sense.
Also I had to make cyborg implants with this fun mini game where you shave blocks into shapes and decide who to implant them into.
Nice to get back to adventure games after FPS and platformers.
Few days away from a system reveal, very exciting. The switch direct was good, MP4 is playing it very safe but I'll take it. Marvel beat em up is cool. DQ1 and 2 is sweet. Even Pokémon looked pretty good.
Still the switch 2 I hope has a massive lineup. I am wondering how switch 2 upgrades will work. Exciting stuff. Then comes the preordering madness.
I'd love to play a Pokemon game. I'll have to check what is up with the latest Switch ones. I enjoyed Sheild & Sword.
Anyway, just finisehd Spiritfarer - 35 hours. Onto a pallette cleanser - There is no Game, before I settle on the next thing. Thinking Hogwarts, Wanderstop -- actully there is likely a few indy games in my immediate backlog to check before I buy another game.
I'm kind of dehyped now and fed up waiting for it.I'm starting to remember that most Nintendo directs or presentations are never really amazing.
I just want cheap micro sd express cards and better loading and handheld performance for my existing games.
Yeah, I don't watch them anymore. Boring AF. I really miss the ones with Iwata, Reggie and Miyamoto; those had a lot of personality. I now wait until the direct is over and watch only the trailers that catch my eye.
You guys are crazy! I’m super hyped for the upcoming Nintendo Direct. I’ll be in my StarTropics pyjamas, wearing my Miyamoto slippers, and sipping from my Iwata mug.
Oh, I'm hyped a bit for the possible games that will be shown, just not Nintendo's modern dry presentations.
These days are long gone:
Of course with all that said, I've also been looking forward to this presentation to help me figure out my next console purchase. If Nintendo doesn't bring the goods, I'm sticking with Sony and possibly never looking back. Likewise, if they blow me away, my PS4 may be where my PlayStation collection ends for a while.
I miss the Regginator. Despite Doug Bowser having the most fitting name the man is nonexistent.
I've been chasing the score this weekend in Tempest 2000, Tempest 4000, Pacman CE, and arcade versions Bubble Bobble, Burger Time, Dig Dug 2, Popeye and Joust. As much as I like Tempest 4000, Tempest 2000 is the better game; I wish they would remake it in full HD. The Jaguar version on Atari 50 is still a lot of fun to play, though.
Edit: I just had a really good run on Qbert arcade. 👍
I still watch them, but there's a lot of filler.
I'm interested in how it handles AAA games.
I'm not sure how many I'd buy unless they were heavily discounted though. I got 10 indie games recently for around £20. You can't match that value.
It's a classic point-and-click puzzle-solving game with a touch of Stanley Parable humour. If you are a point and click puzzle sicko it will be right up your alley. About 4 hours to beat; I am close to halfway through it.
It’s been all Monster Hunter Wilds in the game department for me this weekend. Trying to get the one last miniature gold crown to get the platinum trophy for the game.
And I had a couple misadventures trying to stream. I started with Pikmin 3 which some of my viewers voted for, but it's too hard to split your attention between managing multiple groups of characters and Pikmin along with an audience. So that's not going to happen.
Then I switched gears to Super Mario Galaxy 2. That started off fun, but the levels with Yoshi just suck. I failed to complete a level where you have to ride him after eating a pepper about two dozen times. Out of sheer frustration, I eventually quit and returned to Epic yarn, which is probably more my speed now.
I downloaded Atomfall from Game Pass this weekend, but barely played it enough to give any impressions.
The setting and apparent quality are very alluring, but I've heard it's crafting and survival-heavy (ugh).
