The tank controls of LM3 is almost killing my enjoyment of the game

dunno what weird version of LM3 you're playing that has tank controls, but if you're struggling with the controls have you tried using the shoulder buttons instead of the face buttons?

I�m using the shoulder buttons and but I don�t like how Luigi turns and how it feels inconsistent due to tank controls. I just did the rubber duck boat stuff and holy poo poo that was so unfun with the turning controls. The number of times I had to repeat the shark fin/boss was infuriating just because I turned the wrong way and ran into spikes or the shark ghosts. Ugh.

(And I am not using gyro looking, hell no.)

Didn�t that get an Xbox Live Arcade remake?

If it's anything like World, the "story" segment is fine alone but beyond that it's more fun with a group

Ah yes, I too am excited about the indie game "House of the Dead", by indie developer Sega.

Ninja....turtles? I dunno, I don't think that'll work!

I'm sure it does.

Phil Fish sure does love porting the only thing he ever made to every platform in the world rather than actually making something new.

I don�t think Phil Fish is involved in any of the ports, and has separated himself from Fez. Blitworks have been doing the ports.

when the new zelda comes out and the oled switch inevitably struggles with it, I want to check back on all the "justifying my purchase" people who will be suckered into "upgrading" to this waste of money :newlol:

The tech specs for the original and W I D E models both say �NVIDIA custom Tegra processor,� but there�s a (very small) possibility they used a newer Tegra that can run games at a higher native resolution/framerate. Since, you know, most games (especially in handheld) are running at a lower resolution and upscaled. I�m not holding my breath but I�m sure people are gonna be clamoring for clarification and Nintendo will address it at some point.

again, is this your first time dealing with nintendo products?

Issues I had with Samus Returns
-Stop and go gameplay with the counter and free-aiming (very much fixed)
-Crappy sound quality and mixing (fixed)
-Repetitive level design (looking good so far!)
-Very little variety in enemies (can pretty confidently say at this point that this is fixed)
-Stiflingly linear even compared to the original Metroid II. Very little room for skips or fancy movement tech (allegedly fixed, mobility has definitely gotten a huge upgrade)
-That terrible giant robot boss fight and the obnoxious Gamma metroids that ran away from you constantly (we'll see I guess lol)
-Poorly-handled atmosphere and storytelling, with the quiet moments free of enemies from Metroid II that built tension and communicated how dangerous the Metroid were turned into noisy gauntlets. (The devil's in the details but Dread definitely looks like it's making an honest effort at building a sense of, well, dread.)

- Was on the 3DS and is uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time
