lmao they are a huge difference actually.

I have already seen the video from Digital Foundry, most of the comparable difference aren't significant differences at all when you are playing the game.
Digital Foundry mentioned in the video that most of the changes don't really impact the gameplay experience that much. Sure N Sane Trilogy has less grass, less significant tile textures, no water reflections, no fur but... does all these matter that much when we are really playing the game? Not to mention playing it on handheld.

Not only that but the Switch version comes with input delay issues which are kind of a problem when you're dealing with levels such as Stormy Ascent.

I haven't played the game to be honest so I can't say much about that, then again hopefully they can patch it up in the future.

It's a fine port but it's far and away an inferior, compromised version of the game.

N Sane Trilogy on Switch is a compromised version... sounds super obvious... but then again a majority the compromise don't really affect the gameplay, that being said this differs from person to person. Inferior? Pl-ease....

Whether it's a good port or not really depends on what you are focusing on, since you care way more about graphics and resolution than the portability, N Sane Trilogy on Switch definitely isn't the version worth your time. For me, if there's price drop in the future I might pick it up. Or I might just get the PC version for the best experience.

And what's very interesting, when I was typing this post this video just upload:

They literally say in the Digital Foundry video that the changes are pretty significant and make the look and feel of the game feel compromised.

You shouldn't even need them to tell you that, since it's blatantly obvious if you've played the two different versions.

Even going from PS4 Pro to PC is a noticeable jump.

Regardless, stop bringing up this subject. This is like the fourth time. Just because a game I didn't think would make it to the Switch makes it to the Switch in a significantly compromised state, does not mean every game ever is going to come to the Switch easily.

Keep in mind Crash is a highly linear game. The levels are literal hallways. Something like Spyro is going to take a lot more effort to port to Switch in an acceptable state, as the levels are far larger yet equally if not more detailed than Crash, not to mention all of the extra visual flair they are adding like burnable foilage.

People at NeoGaf 2 hate everything anyway :V

They mostly hate it because
" Why is Gen so complicated? World was easier", and "The monsters look like over designed anime nonsense"

The first one I undertsand, MHGenU is pretty hard pff

 

[Fenriraga]

You people act like NSMBU is even bad.

It isn't bad. Just a bit forgettable due to timing.

Being forgettable/boring is just as bad as being bad sometimes.

Doesn't make it a bad game fundamentally, of course, but why would I want to play something that bores me? At least a bad game can actually get a reaction out of me, or even a laugh if it's something like 06 or Megaman X6 or something. It's the reason I hate Shadow the Hedgehog more than 06.

Games are meant to entertain. If it doesn't entertain, it's failing at it's most important goal.

I find stupid that they are now complaining because World was easier and they want it like that, when they've been complaining about World being easy all the time lol. That's why they brought the pickle from the old world and the damn Behemoth from Eorzea. And honestly I already find the complains about World being easy sketchy, we already had the Bezelgeuse with his memes and elder dragons are all a pain, and that's not counting tempered mosnters that one-shot you even with the best armor in the game. How do people see World as easy lmao, I must be really bad at it.

But somehow MHGen U is even harder??? I was going to try the demo, but being harder, I think I might pass lol. Though I've seen the monsters from the demo, and I don't understand the design complain, I love how the Valstrax looks like a damn jet with all the fire on his wings.

I mean by default, the old school MH are harder. You will actually have to aim with the bow guns like normal and it isnt auto or rapid fire. But funny enough, because MH is so difficult, I find it more fun.

Plus MHGU has Prowlers and mizutsune, my two fav things

tho GenU is made for veterans sooo

I was trying to pull Michaih and at 3.25 I was pitty broken by this:

A saber! One of my favorite units. He was plus res minus speed so I merged him withy other one. He’s pretty rare so it was cool to get him again.

But he wasn’t the only five star that session:

I also got Elinca. She’s plus def minus res so not the worse. It’s always good to have more dancers and her dragon killer effect is handy.

Random question: But do y'all think the "PAC-MAN cloud" from Greninja's trailer way back then was a legit hint or just a coincidence people looked too much into?

I'm on the latter camp.

Honestly I don’t even know. We can say it sounds crazy but it also could easily been put there.

Not to mention that the E3 direct has donkey items in the background with the next direct having the skull kid ones.

So I wouldn’t be shocked if they are actually hints at this point. Sakurai is a crazy and clever person. Let’s not forget the red eyes and people thought he was tired but we got two characters relating to it. So I’m on team hints

It's about a few weeks overdue since the craze first launched, but I finally finished my Favorite Character Bingo!

I figured that each week, depending on how successful it will be, we can partake in several favorite character bingos! Each week will be a different theme. In addition, this version that I want to play involves putting a marker over a character you happen to also call a favorite/you really like. I'd figure that's the best route to take since it helps keeps the game positive; otherwise, doing the neutral/dislike/hate additions can add some negative flare to the game, and that could ultimately take the fun out of the game. That's why I want to stick with love/like markers for this one.

I have about four other themes that I plan on doing in the future, but for this week, we are keeping it simple by doing a favorite fictional character bingo. Here's my bingo card featuring most of my favorite fictional characters:

Admittedly, there are several favorite fictional characters of mine that are missing. That's why I plan on doing those additional themes to include those missing characters when the time comes.

That said, place a marker of some sort over the character you happen to love/like as well!

Want to make a favorite character bingo card yourself! Here's a link to a blank template that you can use. To add the images into the template, Photoshop works for that, but Microsoft Word works too (in fact, that's the software I used to create my bingo card since I don't have Photoshop at the moment).

Let's see how this game goes!

Honestly, I'm pretty sure it was purposeful. Bandai-Namco is known for hiding the Pac-Man logo in places like that. It's basically their version of the Hidden Mickey.

Pretty sure Hidden Mickey is a movie thing too with them.

Spyro trilogy delayed? For the sake of fans it better be because they're making sure they're releasing a finished game at launch.

Honestly, I don't care about the Spyro series enough to pick this game up, not even if they have the entire series remastered on one disc for $40.

I finally broke and bought Metroid Prime Trilogy on Wii U. Never played the Trilogy collection before, and so far Prime 1 really benefits from the pointer controls.

I can’t wait to feel like a fool and an imbecile when the hd remaster is announced

I can't do the marker thing myself at the moment, but I like the idea, we get to know each other tastes this way, I might even make my own bingo hahaha.

If you want the answer without the marker, from your list I like: Layton, Takumi, Rem, Spike, Kristina (Makise Kurisu), Chrom, Okabe, Lyon and Greninja. Difficult to make a bingo when you know nothing about Fate hahaha.

I haven't tried the demo myself yet, but since it has the Great Maccao as one of the monsters it shouldn't be that much harder to get into relative to Monster Hunter World. It's basically the Great Jagras of the bunch, and you can use it to get a feel for how old-school Monster Hunter plays before moving to the big boys in Barioth and especially Valstrax.

So there's a rumor the reason King K. Rool is joining the fray is because the overwhelming demand from the Smash Ballot that even surprised Nintendo themselves.

If this is true, this won't surprise me in the slightest. Loads and loads of people online wouldn't shut up about Rool (including me), even when Brawl was revealed 12 years ago. How Nintendo didn't see this is beyond me.

I dont get how they could know Geno is well liked but not K. Rool though

Sakurai knew of Geno's fanbase before the ballot, back during Brawl too. K. Rool's fanbase might not have been nearly as vocal. The ballot unsurprisingly mattered. But many expected it to help determine some of Ultimate's choices anyway.

[Chrono.]

I'm bored and have nothing to do so I went ahead and checked out the Mii Fighter cameo gear from 4, just to check which ones have roles in the game (as either an Assist or playable character, no stage elements except bosses or regular Trophies), which ones do not yet. We don't really know if Mii gear will be back at all, in fact, anything regarding customization is still up in the air. I'm only really doing this because of the on-going belief that Sakurai may have given Mii Costumes to character he knew were either popular or decently requested in the ballot, because a number of them are showing up as either playable or assists.

But anyways without further ado...

Mii Fighter cameo gear that have roles in both 4 and/or in Ultimate

• Link - playable character (lol)
• Majora's Mask - It's just the mask and not Skull Kid, but I'll still count it as him. AT in 4, MIA in Ultimate.
• Mega Man X - Mega Man's Final Smash in both games
• Protoman - Absent in 4, added to Mega Man's Final Smash in Ultimate
• Dunban - Shulk's Final Smash in both games
• Isabelle - Assist Trophy in 4, MIA in Ultimate. Strong chance of showing up playable.
• Zero - Absent in 4, added in Ultimate as an Assist Trophy
• Inkling - Absent in 4, playable character in Ultimate
• MegaMan.EXE - Mega Man's Final Smash in both games
• King K. Rool - Absent in 4, playable character in Ultimate
• Chrom - Robin's Final Smash in 4, upgraded to playable in Ultimate
• Samus - lol
• Flying Man - Magicant's "boss" in both 4 and Ultimate.
• Rathalos Armor - I'm.... Gonna count this as an Assist Trophy/Boss, even if it's the actual Rath and not the hunter wearing the armor.
• Fox - 20XX
• Captain Falcon - Oh come on
• Ashley - Assist Trophy in both games
• Knuckles - Assist Trophy in Ultimate
• Takamaru - Assist Trophy in both games

And now we move on to Mii Fighter cameo gear whose character they're based of have yet to show up in Ultimate. And quick thoughts on them

• Heihachi Mishima - Tekken character. Sakurai wanted him in 4, for what it's worth... I'd prefer Jin, but the old man is cool too.
• Akira Yuuki - Virtua Fighter character. Don't really know VF enough to comment on him. I will say that VF is a rather important series, even if Tekken upstaged it. Could see them show up in some capacity (mostly as an AT, as SEGA could still sneak in another franchise for one).
• Jacky Bryant - Virtua Fighter character. See above.
• Black Knight - Fire Emblem character. Possible Ike echo in the future?
• Lloyd Irving - Tales of character. He's pretty popular alright, not sure if they'd actually pull the trigger, but I'd welcome him.
• Monster Hunter - ...Monster Hunter... character. I mean, probably? Expect them to wear the Rathalos armor if they're playable or an AT lol.
• Viridi - Kid Icarus character. Not really sure where she stands. I'd like to see her in a way that's not just a background, AT feels realistic.
• Toad - Mario character. He got a more proactive role in Peach's moveset now, I'd consider that an upgrade. The Captain, meanwhile, is a stage element, but that's never hurt anyone that's not a boss before.
• Geno - Mario character. This is the best shot he's ever had, to say the least. Don't really know him or Mario RPG, but I welcome him just because he'd make a lot of people happy.
• Chocobo - Final Fantasy character. Yeaaaaaaaah... No. FF still has the bare minimum of content in Ultimate. I feel that Sakurai already jumped through hoops to get Cloud alone, and it's gonna stay that way.
• Gilgamesh - Tower of Druaga character. Rather obscure, yet, classic character from an old Namco arcade RPG. Tbh I'm shocked we haven't seen him as an Assist Trophy yet.
• Tails - Sonic character. Oof... Imma be biased as **** and say this is Tails' best shot to be playable. He could still show up as an Assist Trophy (or not at all), but I find it weird how much they've been focusing on Knuckles, if that's the case. Either way, if there were ever a time for Tails fans (me) to be hopeful, it's now.

That's about it.

I might do something similar later with the ATs we haven't seen yet.

EDIT: Fixed info on Flying Man.
