    Sunrise, Sunset - Isaac for Smash Ultimate #GoldenSunday

    Yeah, Minecraft characters in general along with something like Fortnite were the only kinds of picks I really didn't want. I have to be honest, this was a shot that directly killed my hype for the rest of the character pass. The only thing that could revive me is an Isaac reveal, though that...

    Well, that was quick.

    Suikoden V competes for being the best one. Of course you'll get competition from nostalgia from I & II and those are obviously great games with story, characters, etc. Suikoden V brought back a bunch of stuff that was taken away as the franchise went on like the RTS battles (which are better...

    That's awesome, I love Suikoden! Konami failed by not continuing on with the series, especially when the mainline games were really getting intricate and good with V. (Let's not mention Tierkreis) This is really where kickstarter shines; funding some of the developers of a game to continue...

    That would be great news if we get a Golden Sun HD. If that news is indeed true, it means that a team has been working on the upgrades to that game for a while. If the idea is to release it on the Switch, all the assets had to be touched at some point, which is actually quite a bit factoring...

    So, 5 more characters to go in pass #2 after this? This ARMS character clues me in right away that Rex & Pyra are likely another slot. A new Pokemon could be another; albeit it's strange to wait so long with it and I don't have a feel on the pulse of Pokemon anymore to know if there's even a...

    Some musing reading through the last page or two and thinking about the Switch as a system. By the way, @clearandsweet, that's and absolutely fantastic video you put out. It does seem strange that Nintendo and the Switch haven't taken more advantage of RPGs on the system seeing as they've been...

    It is interesting that the second fighter pass will have even more characters than the first. Though I suppose Piranha Plant is sort of a fighter pass 1+ sort of thing. When I learned that it would be six more, I instantly thought, both the first and second fighter passes combined contains...

    It'll all come full circle. Been 19 years now since GS1. Always thought it was a great series and Isaac would fit right in the Smash game.

    Sunrise, Sunset - Isaac for Smash Ultimate #GoldenSunday

    That's fair. I do have something to say about the mindshare bit. We can't really test it unless there's a release of Golden Sun in as fair of an environment as possible. We can't do these things in a vacuum, but we wouldn't really know how well Golden Sun on the Switch would do until it's...

    I read them and I can't say that his points hold very much merit. He's comparing apples to oranges. "Xenoblade 2’a numbers are severely out of date. It’s nearly caught up to GS1 as of now. 1.52 million. VGchartz is not very accurate on games less than 10 years ol honestly. Also this analysis...

    Where's my Golden Sun bathing suit DLC?

    “A river cuts through rock, not because of its power, but because of its persistence.” —James N. Watkins. Something to consider for our current state, but also as a series in general. I mean to say this: another Golden Sun needs to happen so we can get even more to happen after that. Most...

    I'll tell you one thing, with Vergeben and Hitagi talking about Steve from Minecraft seeing how they got Kencineroar right, I am definitely not buying that fighter pack. Even the mere chance of Steve being one of those fighters is really detracting me from that offer. I'm sorry, I just don't...

    Sunrise, Sunset - Isaac for Smash Ultimate #GoldenSunday

    Yeah, we're basically not sure? He's a big gaming historian, so I think he obviously knows about the game and all of these games in general. RPGs are his favorite genre too so you'd think he would have by some point. Golden Sun is one of the franchises he's just never talked about at all...
