ProJared with his review on the Fake Odyssey

Only 14 actual levels is kinda disappointing but depending on their size, it may make up for the quantity

 

[ChikoLad]

Sonic Official stream is on.

Aaron unfortunately has confirmed that there won't be a Western release of the Sonic Forces demo. The 60 second timer is apparently there because Japanese consumers are more used to that (apparently its normal over there).

If any of you were waiting on a Western demo, setting up a Japanese PSN/eShop account isn't very hard at all. I recommend doing it in general, especially on PS4, as there are other demos you could try out that you won't get to other wise.

1 minute Demos are common in Japan? Huh, The more I know

 

[allison]

Goddammit I guess I have to buy a Switch now

 

[ChikoLad]

oh

Jasmine is in a witch outfit on the Sonic stream and she rocks it

t-t-too cute...

 

[PLATINUM7]

Got my copy of Odyssey!

Time to...update.

But after that :D

 

[Wario Bros.]

I saw that an overalls Wario outfit exists in Super Mario Odyssey via amiibo

Will the Smash Wario amiibo give Mario overalls outfit too or his WarioWare outfit? (I have both Mario series Wario & Waluigi amiibo that I will not remove from box)

By what I've seen, his Smash Amiibo gives his overalls.

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

I never knew how much I needed Mario in a wedding dress until now.

I felt the same way about Cloud(well, less so wedding) in Smash 4. D:

 

[Coricus]

Well that's one way to be out with that.

*bops Chiko over the head with a paper fan*

No waifuing the streamers!

 

[praline]

Ugh. It’s like my brain intentionally wants me to suck at a game.

I was doing really good against the dragon boss in the Mummy demastered. I got to what I assume was the final stage and suddenyl I forgot how to do the lock move so I could shoot at it from a diagonal position and every time it shot a fire ball I jumped into the explosion...

How many ****ers a, I gonna kill to get past this?

 

[ChikoLad]

*bops Chiko over the head with a paper fan*

Cori, I think you are quite naive if you think waifuing is thinking someone is pretty.

Waifuing is far more complex and serious an undertaking. It's a real commitment and requires a lot of energy and resolve.

Gonna be honest, I thought this was serious for a second. lol

AA5 messed with my brain it seems.

I am being slightly serious.

Just slightly.

 

[praline]

****ing this time I did even worse! Why am I si bad at video games!?

 

[ChikoLad]

DarkspinesSonic got the timer to freeze in the Avatar stage in the Sonic Forces demo, making it possible to complete the stage.

Was DarkspinesSonic the one that did the glitch run of Sonic 06 at that one agdq/sgdq?

 

[Wario Bros.]

So guys: Any worthwhile perks if I make a Japanese Switch account?

And no, Sonic Forces demo isn't enough.

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

@Shishœ Ok cool. I've been working on a script for a movie for a while. And in the past when doing so I've hit major Writer's Block more times than I care to admit. Mind if I hit you up in the future?

 

[ChikoLad]

Remember how the trophy list for Sonic Forces alluded to there being 30+ Wispons?

Sorry if it's disappointing, but they won't all be unique. "Burst", "Lightning", etc, aren't a single, unique Wispon, but are actually categories.

Also, I managed to do the timer freeze in Space Port, with the Burst Wispon. Should be possible with the Lightning Wispon too, but I think it will be impossible for Cube.

Was DarkspinesSonic the one that did the glitch run of Sonic 06 at that one agdq/sgdq?

Most likely. He is one of the top runners of Modern Sonic games, especially Sonic '06.

There are a number of demos on it that don't come to the west, in some cases because the games are exclusive to there. So it gives you more to play. I've downloaded every nearly every Switch demo between Japan and Europe.

If you're willing to figure out the translation for the interface (there are guides I think), then you can of course buy stuff there, including Japan exclusives, or games that release earlier in Japan (Fire Emblem Warriors is an example of this, it released a month earlier there).

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

For the first time in my life I seen someone straight up delete a DRV3 off of their PS4 and it only because of the ending. Like I can understand not liking the ending of the game but deleting the whole entire game just because of the ending makes me feel kind of weird and I don't know why.

I know you all are just going to say it's his game he can do what he wants with it I'm just sharing my opinion on what he did feel free to talk about it if you want. It was all a joke but wow did he sound salty

 

[mario123007]

For a moment I thought Rex's left knee was his butt and was trying to sit on Fiora.

Cool af artwork anyways

It's kind of rare to find Xenoblade fanart these days... but I'm sure when XC2 releases there will be a lot.

I have also read the overwatch artbook, and oh my ... spoiler alert there was one Sombra concept art that I really like... and also much more things I haven't seen before.

 

[Deleted member]

I don't think I'm the best for this sort of stuff but sure. It's getting late here though, so I likely wom't be able to respond to anything today

Guess I might a bit longer on making one.

Demos don't encourage me enough, nothing released outside my shores hasn't caught my attention, and I can deal with waiting a bit longer for a release (though if the gap between regions ever gets REALLY long...)

 

[Ivander]

Can you show the Sombra concepts? I found some of them like Mercy, Symmetra, Reinhardt, Tracer, D.va, Reaper, Widow, Roadhog, Soldier, Pharah, Zen, Genji/Hanzo, Lucio, Mei and Junkrat, but the others I haven't seen yet.
I have to admit if it weren't for the fact that Symmetra is Indian, I would've loved to see Symmetra's concept arts as skins. The Tribal-like Reinhardt would also be a cool skin. Also, this Tracer concept would be cool to see as a skin as well.

Any costume you unlock through amiibo also unlocks through just playing the game.

Even Waifu Mario?

Yes even waifu Mario.

Well, I managed to beat DarkspinesSonic to something.

I managed to find all 5 Red Star Rings in Space Port and collect them all in one run despite the timer in the first half, in the Sonic Forces PS4 Demo.

This took a while to figure out and optimise. The 4th Red Star Ring is kinda craftily hidden - this was my first time actually collecting it, as you can tell with how careful I was being, since I failed every other time I got to that area. The Lightning Wispon is also required for this. Getting past the train sequence is seemingly impossible altogether with Cube, and getting the second Red Star Ring with Burst and still making it past the train seems impossible. Lightning is the only one that lets you collect it without breaking your flow too much.

Reggie was unsurprisingly at Nintendo NYC's launch for Odyssey. Kotaku was there too and got to talk with him.

• He did acknowledge the GameCube adapter support but he didn't really expand on it
• And when it came to Super Smash Bros., he replied: "Of course, there’s nothing to announce on this. I think it’s fair to say that that peripheral working was as much a surprise to us as it was to consumers." (I'm betting there's a Smash nerd out there who thinks Reggie was on to something for Smash)
• And when they asked about Mother 3, he said "Do you want the eye beams coming out?"

Good ol' Reggie

Eventually they’ll have to release Mother 3.

...I would've liked the eye beams to come out.

It's already released though :^)

 

[Wario Bros.]

Anyone up for "Jump Up, Super Star!" in Japanese?

 

[AmericanDJ]

It's good to see Odyssey getting such good reviews.
I don't think I'll be getting the game right away though, and even if I do, I would still wait quite a bit before I actually play it.
I also want to keep my expectations low whenever I do play it because I don't want to feel disappointed by it.

I'm pretty sure Reggie is well past the point of having nightmares in his sleep about Mother 3.

If he mutated actual Regginator eye beam organs just from sheer stress I wouldn't even act shocked anymore.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Oh this SUCKS

I have to chose between Ninja and Warrior

It's like the game knew I wanted both those classes

You can get whatever you don’t pick at a later time in the game,

No, please, oh God, don't do this to me, I'm saving up Orbs for Joshua, don't do this, I only have 109 of them, I beg you, have mercy IS

Yeah, I think Bravely Second is great, but the sidequests are easily my least favorite part. Limits your jobs, requires backtracking, and most are just retreads of all areas.


Last 2 sidequests are great though
