Not saying he's a bad guy, he's just a grampa. At least he's letting those darn kids have a turn with the flagship IPs and bringing back Metroid (even if it is a Prime game).

He can have a resting bitch face as much as he wants as long as he does Nintendo good.

This though. I have this. Maybe that's why I see that picture as a smile? I just got through a pre-practicum course of mock teaching and my constant feedback from (American) students was "You need to smile more." The foreign students thought I smiled a perfect amount though, and I'll be teaching foreign students, so who cares?

I wouldn't worry about it as long as you are pleasant/nice enough otherwise. They'll be looking at the materials/whatnot anyways.

Samus Returns was a remake, but it was a good test of the waters for new 2d adventures.

I don't own a 3DS, and I've owned and played the original Metroid 2. I can't wait for something new.

Aso, I'm a docked guy, so the bigger the screen, the better.

Had some friends over tonight and one of them had Crawl on his Switch (that he could easily bring over because it's a Switch, and good), and holy poo poo Crawl is extremely my jam. Bought it on mine as soon as they left. It's just as fun solo as it is with a group. It scratches multiple itches, from retro graphics to Lovecraftian aesthetics, it's got roguelike replayability, it's got evil Pokemon, god drat people, give Crawl a try it's only :15bux:

I've watched way too many of those cleanprincegaming videos. They're all sort of boring and he cuts every video with scenes from Kenan and Kel, SpongeBob, Family Guy, and other kids shows.

But his voice is all right and he's not an rear end in a top hat so when I have nothing else to watch I put him on.

I got a Switch for Christmas, and got Super Mario Odyssey.

It's... Kind of a letdown from all the praise it gets?

The levels feel sort of needlessly large. Like the Sand Kingdom has this big temple but there's basically zero platforming involved so far...

Also the way you just kind of stumble onto piles of moons is sort of lame. It was an accomplishment to get a star in Galaxy, whereas moons are more like "oh I guess I needed those."

Also it gets better once you finish the tutorial (aka the main story).

Sit back and relax and treat it more like Mario Kazooie for now, you’ll get your well-earned platforming moons laaaater

It didn't for me. I kind of agree with the dude above. I haven't really gone back except for a couple levels since beating it. I never really got the hang of the crazy combos, either.

Steamworld Dig 2 is a fun game and it's only held back by the inability to attack while jumping. I just found the flame axe and I wasn't expecting to get an item like this. I'm excited to see what else there is to discover.

I just got Enter the Gungeon. I’ve put an hour or two into it. As far as I can tell it doesn’t have its own thread. Is there anything at all that ever carries over? Or is every run started fresh? I guess you’re just supposed to get better and the first few floors become trivial? Or am I missing something?

If you could attack while jumping you could dig up, which would break the game.

You do eventually get a way to attack while jumping that doesn't dig, and late game you can unlock an upgrade that will dig while jumping
