Scholars are some of the most pompous and pedantic people I've ever had the joy of meeting.

I might have to impulse buy this if it's in the $10-20 range.

I heavily endorse the Gunvolt games as they are the real Megaman successors over Mighty No. 9 and are incredibly fun.

Okay but, CAD $55.99 is just such a kick to the nuts for a 3DS game.

I remember looking at the newest Worms game on Xbox and seeing that it was priced about $20 more than I would have liked. I think they were $40?

Pop out into a hellscape of war where cities burn like the Middle East, because Robonik lusts for a world of fire and brimstone apparently. The mood is off. The one level in Generations that was a destroyed city with lava everyone was absolute trash, but the rest of the game was perfect. I hope the whole game is just bright-rear end 90s colors and this is just a skippable cutscene that doesn't look like any part of the actual game.

I'm sure all those animals I freed in the chemical plant, oil ocean, flying battery, lava reef, and Titanic Monarch zones are juuuuuuuuust fine.

the city on fire in Sonic Forces isn't any worse than the opening stage of Sonic 3 being set on fire.

The very next stage is literally Green Hill but mechanized so I don't really think you need to worry about it being super dark.

Might be more around $30, considering it has all the expansions included in the pack and some more. Anyway, they did a Twitch stream where they featured the Switch version in more detail.

I think the more important point is, we've only seen like 2 zones total from forces. Sonic team makes dumb decisions sometimes, but I think lack of variety in their zones would be a new one for them.

Sonic literally blows up an oil refinery in Sonic Mania and the entire second act is a burning hellscape where you slowly suffocate from smoke inhalation until you temporarily clear the air. Honestly I am glad that Sonic Forces is leaving it all on the table and just flying the antifa flag as explicitly as possible. More politically conscious in 2017 than Taylor Swift.

Few minutes ago I got home to find my Brook Super Converter PS3/PS4 to Switch waiting for me. Some first impressions of using it:

First thing, had to update it out of the box for the latest firmware, what it comes with doesn't have motion control (though it's advertised on the box). No biggie, plugged it into the PC (the updater is Windows only fyi) and it took 1 or 2 minutes to update.

Second thing, I had noticed some wicked input lag before updating the firmware and was sad that after updating, it was diminished but still awful. Motion control does work, and precision feels about on par with joycons, but the noticeable delay between inputs and action on screen made the one game of Splatoon 2 I played feel like I was fighting underwater. To be honest, it sucked, the performance is unusable as-is.

Miscellaneous thoughts: this does require using your PS3/PS4 controller wired at all times, fine with me but definitely another limitation. It also supports USB fight sticks, but I don't have one yet to test.

Soo right now it's $35 kinda down the drain but I'm going to keep my eye out for firmware updates.

All those zones are bright and happy though (dunno about Titanic Monarch since I haven't gotten there yet), like cute chaos. It's hell, but it's adorable which is where the tone between games is different.

Thank you for the honesty. You saved me money and time. I was going to get this hooked up for a buddy of mine, but I will wait and see. Let us know if you do ever get it working in a workable way that isn't too laggy.
