All I want is the Ace Attorney games that haven't been localized yet, but I know that's too much to hope for. It's probably just going to be a port of the original trilogy, and then Apollo Justice/Dual Destinies/Spirit of Justice. thexerox123 fucked around with this message at 16:52 on Nov 13, 2017 |

alf_pogs posted:if there's a switch release of the DS port of Chrono Trigger i will buy that poo poo in a heartbeat I would too, even though I'd rather just about any other version. (Except for the Playstation one with its loading screens, oof.) The needless retranslations suck, as do the new areas. But I'll take whatever Chrono Trigger I can get! And I guess the ability to turn Robo into a critical hit murder machine is nice, even though you have to suffer through really poorly designed new areas to get the stuff. Now, if they release Chrono Cross... THAT will get me excited. I've considered buying a Vita just to play that game. thexerox123 fucked around with this message at 05:06 on Dec 12, 2017 |

I also rebound my controls in Gungeon... shoot with ZR, dodge roll with ZL, switch weapons with L and R... makes a world of difference. I don't know how they settled on the terrible default control scheme that they did.

Frankston posted:I doubt it but do Nintendo offer a steam-type refund deal where you can get a refund for games you have played for less than 2 hours? I got Enter the Gungeon and I just don't find it very fun at all (and it cramps the poo poo out of my left hand) If you don't end up getting a refund, I highly recommend at least changing the controls. The default controls are terrible, it's much better with dodge roll and fire set to ZL and ZR. Also, turn the cursor on.

RCarr posted: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? There are shops that you can unlock that will allow you to buy new weapons and items to add to the pool. Keep an eye out for rooms with jail cells. And you get credits that carry over from winning boss battles.

The blood moon also respawns fruit in trees, weapons scattered throughout the world, things like that. So if you see a good weapon somewhere that isn't in a chest, take note of its location and go back after a blood moon.

Guy Goodbody posted:I have some weird sound thing going on with Doom. Sometimes it'll just get quiet. If I turn up the volume I can hear it a little, but then something will happen and it'll go back to normal. The volume of the regular Switch home menu is not effected at all during these times, if I hit the Home button while the game is quiet all the bloops on the menu are the right volume Did you download the update? I'm pretty sure it includes a patch that is supposed to fix audio issues.

Based on Nintendo's track record with online poo poo, do you really think I should have good faith in their vague plans? It was the voice communication app announcement that really killed my interest. Is anyone really gonna defend that bullshit? Also, if you'll recall, their paid online was supposed to be enacted last fall. If they had said 2018 to begin with, I may have been more inclined to at least get this length of time with them.

And I passed them up for other games that didn't require that stuff. I've been having fun with BotW, Odyssey, Golf Story, DOOM, Stardew Valley, Worms, Overcooked, etc. I just didn't prioritize getting Splatoon, ARMS, or Rocket League (for a third time). I mean, also, I hadn't played the first Splatoon and this thread was making GBS threads on ARMS a lot. That played into it too. Basically, they already had an uphill battle in selling me on a franchise that I hadn't played whose spot is already kinda filled by Overwatch for me; ARMS, a game that was getting middling reviews; and a game that I like but already own. If their online system sounded more enticing/good overall, they might have made those sales. But I'm not sure I'll bother to add that additional monthly cost on top of XBL, Netflix, etc, at this point. thexerox123 fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Jan 16, 2018 |
