Well if Godzilla or giant monsters are to be included then my favs are the Heisei Gamera Trilogy, Godzilla (1954), Kong: Skull Island and Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

They didn't add any new tracks to deluxe. They added a handfull of battle arenas.... or maybe all of them, was battle mode new in deluxe? But the only tracks in 8 Deluxe are the ones from the Wii U game.

Well then, I feel like this only furthers my point about showing restraint.

At least you admit that you go a little overboard. That's good. That's growth. Good for you.

My usual limit on rosters is about as big as MvC2. Now I'll admit even I went a little overboard with Sega vs. Capcom as both companies have such a schmorgasbord of juicy IPs with untapped potential. But even then, I went honestly more ham with the concept of DLC. 12 for each side is a little on the meaty side (but it's admittedly a very Capcom practice...)

I don’t know if you saw my last post, but I’m trying to keep myself restrained but still work with as much material as I can manage.

Apparently for Mother's Day.

Really love that they referenced Metroid 2 and Super Metroid.

Also tagging Lamperouge Lamperouge for obvious reasons.

Y'know...I've never actually played Other M; I just think the meme is funny.

Is the game really that bad?
Click to expand...
I personally found Other M really fun if one doesn't mind the plot really much.

The gameplay is enjoyable enough and I wouldn't mind a similar approach to that in the near future.

Plot wise It has some flaws but they weren't a big deal for me (more so after Samus Returns).

I don’t have a lot of good opinions on that game, there are some good parts but there’s a lot I don’t like about it tbh. And I know a lot of people who feel the same way.

That's quite in fact a philosophy I apply to games in general.

I prefer to play games on my own before judging them. Which was the reason why I never took part in FE Three Houses talks until I played the Game.

A great tipe to give to anyone, tbh.

For the gameplay itself, the 3D combat is mostly tight (if a bit un-Metroid like) though the FP mode was clunky, I hated that you can’t individually target enemies and the authorization gimmick was stupid, though I think the first couple problems could’ve been solved with the Nunchuck had that been an option, but apparently the director wanted to stick with vertical Wiimote cause it was closest to NES controls which I found was a stupid reason.

The vertical Wiimote I found gives the game it's unique style. The way the controls and camera works makes it a 2D Metroid feel but in 3D. And it's one thing to have issues with authorization from a story perspective, but gameplay?

(also I find authorization far more plausible than losing all your upgrades in an explosion Ghost n Goblins style in a suit that has taken far worse) :yoshi:

I got a question for you guys based on the video below (you might want to make some popcorn.)
Do you agree with this guy's criticisms on Sword and Shield and if not, what do you disagree with and why?
I cannot answer this myself due to me not playing these games (the controversies scared me off.)
Click to expand...
Sword/Shield were the first 7/10 Pokemon game for me. Not bad, but below the standards I hold for the series. Was honestly more into Let's Go than it, and Pokemon Masters has/continues to consume more of my free time than it did.

Will probably go for the DLC out of habit, but I don't plan on touching the game again until then. Would love to complete the Living Dex challenge but given the state the game is in, the bragging rights don't outweigh the effort & risks.

At least six more months in the oven I think would have done wonders as would having voice acting.

Also, Happy Goku and Piccolo day. Had to do a real quick sketch for it.

I mean, most of the Marvel/DC heroes have either dead parents or dead parental figures at the very least.

...now I feel like there's even more Nintendo characters with dead family members (like Pit...who lost his entire species)

also Goku

Just because it’s unique doesn’t mean it’s automatically good, a simple button press instead of a gimmicky motion would’ve made the transition between modes a lot smoother and the c-stick would’ve made the 3D navigation easier and I would’ve liked having an onscreen aimer for shooting.

I think everyone's ignoring the fact that that tweet implies that Pikachu Libre is Pichu's mom, which would help fuel that one Pikachu and Pichu fan theory.

I think it’s an ill conceived concept and o think the game would’ve been better off without it. Did we really need to explain why Samus loses her powers to begin with? I get it was to bridge the story and gameplay more but you don’t need to explain everything in your story for it to be credible.

It was a lot cheaper when I got it a year later

And yeah, sure, analog controls are preferable in full 3D games (if Metroid Prime had that it would've sucked hard), but it works for Other M because of the way the levels are designed.

I.......... have nothing on the 3D parts, it's probably the weakest part in terms of gameplay. I'll say at least that the dynamic of these battles change when Samus has to stand still to use missiles. Limitations is not always a detriment as long as it's designed around it. (Though they could've at least not had us press B to change screens) :yoshi:

Amazon has a brand new copy for almost $13.
https://www.amazon.com/Metroid-Other-M-Wii/dp/B002BSC4ZS

Still not gonna buy it since I currently don't have all the components for my Wii, tho. Maybe Nintendo will re-release it someday for Switch alongside every other Metroid game (unrealistic, I know...but a man can dream).

I think that was mostly a launch date price, but yeah if you wanna go play it, I’m not gonna stop you, I personally don’t think it’s worth going out of you way to get.
