I'm disappointed that they're just ports and not remasters. I was pumped for Galaxy HD, was looking forward to playing a more polished Sunshine, and figured that a Mario 64 remaster while maintaining the graphical style was more than possible, going off the retro costume in Odyssey. Also I owned a Wii U and I played Mario 3D World to death and I have no desire to ever play it again. Also Galaxy 2 is objectively better than Galaxy 1. The hell is wrong with some of you?

I'd be more excited for this if the reveal trailer didn't make it look like the game is gonna take place in an already-destroyed Hyrule using BOTW assets. Also if you're gonna have Zelda's VA from BOTW please give me an option to switch to Japanese with English subs. Thank you.

Cartoon Man posted:So between the Mario 3D All Stars and Hyrule Warriors, I’m guessing Nintendo still has one more big game up its sleeves for the holiday, probably for an October or early December release. Could be Skyward Sword, but I’m guessing that gets held back for the Zelda 35th anniversary event next year. Prime Trilogy is another long shot, but doubtful. I’m going with a new Kirby game. Kirby’s crafted world would be amazing. I would love a mainline Kirby game for the switch that has an actually good single-player campaign. Hell, just re-release Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot. I'll buy the hell out of that.

Mario Odyssey is a great game but it might actually be a worse 100% experience than Sunshine.

On a brighter note I just got Rayman Legends and so far this is basically what I've wanted from Kirby games for a while now: a game that's easy to breeze through with tons of optional challenge in every level.

The Bloop posted:There are only two Bad moons (volleyball and jumprope bullshit) Hard disagree. There are dozens of moons that are basically pixel hunts or just menial tasks. I understand from a design perspective for a mobile game to have content in basically every nook and cranny, but when you're down to those last fifty moons that you just can't find and you only have so much free time so you bite the bullet and use a guide, the game starts to feel like a chore. But there are very very VERY few modern AAA games that don't fall into that trap.

I'm more referring to the ones where you have to spin Cappy on a specific thing or ground pound a specific spot. The ones that are completely unmemorable in every way and just sort of add to your total. The ones that are basically just Korok Seeds. The reason the Korok Seeds work is that they're a fun sidegoal and something to make travelling the overworld a more active experience. If collecting Korok Seeds was the explicit goal of Breath of the Wild then they would come under a lot more scrutiny. A collectathon's central collectible should always be fun to collect. It's not like anyone would have said that 800 moons wasn't enough.

American McGay posted:The extra moons are there specifically so you don't have to get every moon. There's nothing gated behind getting every single moon. I think you're all kind of missing the point. There is though. The second painting in the wedding chapel on the Moon only unlocks when you get all 880 unique moons. Also there's a small little thing in Mushroom Kingdom if you get 999 moons by buying more than 100.

Snake Maze posted:This sounds like a straight downgrade, it both makes the random small stuff you find while running around less rewarding, and it means there’s no leeway for missing or simply not wanting to get a moon. Ideally, there would be no moons in the game that were hidden unfairly or unenjoyable to collect, from the perspective of a player who would enjoy completing Darker Side.

100YrsofAttitude posted:Darker Side is the definitive end, the rest is just there if you feel like doing it. I was definitely done after Darker Side, which I didn't even like because, I don't find checkpoint-less endurance gauntlets really a sign of difficulty, just artificial challenge. That's the thing. Any anti-frustration argument for a 300+ moon buffer to unlock Darker Side ignores that the level itself is a brutal gauntlet with no checkpoints. Player convenience is already out the window. Why make the barrier to entry so relatively low?

Put another way, why doesn't Darker Side have checkpoints if it isn't made specifically for people with completionist brainworms?

Snake Maze posted:Because checkpoints in a single gauntlet are a totally disconnected design decision versus requiring 100% collectables to access the gauntlet? I don’t get what you think the connection between the two is. Odyssey, for some reason, lets you access this challenge after completing less than two-thirds of its content. This makes the end of the level, which is as sentimental a moment as Mario's ever had, feel less impactful, to me, personally.

A Switch Pro would obviously make Nintendo a shitload of money in the short-term, but if their long-term plans right now are to stick with the whole hybrid home/portable console thing for future generations, a Switch Pro would probably gently caress them up when it's time for the next generation in, what, three years?

My only problem with 3D World is how drat spacious everything feels on a single player run. There's just so much space left empty in levels that are designed to accommodate four players at once. It's not even a difficulty issue so much as it is about the feeling of a conspicuous absence. That said, the fact that 3D World is simultaneously a pretty fun solo experience in addition to being one of the greatest co-op games of all time makes it a loving triumph of game design.

frogbs posted:Oh no, I do! I guess I should have been more specific. Some of the reviews I read said they wished they'd just been able to explore in Bowser's Fury without a timer, or at least one that was a little longer. Was hoping maybe that was an option somewhere. But, I mean, i'm probably gonna cave and buy it anyway because i'll probably still enjoy it. Bowser's Fury's timer means Bowser happens, not an automatic game over. It cycles.

3D World's level timers for me were never an issue whatsoever except for the levels where the central challenge is "go fast".

Predictions for Zelda 35th Anniversary Direct (if there is one): Absolutely Certain: Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD ported to the Switch, cost $60 each More Likely Than Not: Ocarina of Time/Majora's Mask combo pack that uses some assets/changes from the 3DS remakes and costs $60 50/50: Breath of the Wild 2 news more substantial than a release year and a suggested retail price of $60 Longshot: Link to the Past HD ($60)

Waltzing Along posted:Finished BF at 69/100 and ready for the post game clean-up. I think the game stands on its own as one of the better marios. Definitely better than SM64. It would be worth buying by itself. Can't believe it comes with SM3dW, as well. Definitely the best mario value since SMAS+SMW on the SNES. I took my time trying to do everything systematically instead of just mucking around and by the time I was at 48 shines the Fury was literally permanent. Is that on some kind of timer?
