i cannot deny these opinions

Also, for those who thought Sans was too easy,

:^)

I hadn't thought about the market appeal like that (the need to make games longer.)

Re: Samus Returns, I liked the game a lot (but preferred AM2R -- I'm a big fan of Fusion and Zero Mission.) I gotta play Tropical Freeze eventually

Type I Metroid games have a classical gamestyle with classical items, with a focus on speedrunning and sequence breaking. Type II Metroid games are more linear, less speedrun-friendly, and far more story driven. They often feature different items and styles as compared to previous releases, and are far more experimental.

This is pretty much on the money. One thing though, I think "focus on speedrunning and sequence breaking" isn't exactly true, as Nintendo doesn't expect most players to get that deeply into the game that they specifically try to do those things. Instead, their compact and more open ended designs specifically allow for speedrunning and sequence breaking.

I think the reason that Type II style happened was a need to make the games longer, getting the most out of the limited assets of a gameboy game or adding padding to an expensive 3D title. I only time I really think this worked was Samus Returns, which broke the game into interesting chunks and put a lot of thought into keeping the combat fresh. I don't remember if you had an opinion on that game, I love SR.

In any case I think Nintendo is scared to release short games and has only recently gotten over it, though we'll see how Link's Awakening does.

Maybe it will be that Metroid Prime 4 will just be Metroid Prime 1 Two: Electric Boogaloo, because that's a really successful formula. Who knows?

I have no idea what the original version of MP4 was, but now that they've rebooted it the way they have I'm pretty sure that's what we're getting. It's not the same team that made the first Prime games working on it, most of them left after 3, but I can't imagine that Retro Studios would be involved if it would be some huge departure. I'm very pumped though, Tropical Freeze was so fucking good.

i suspect it will make me feel the same way which is why i have not started playing it yet... but i guess i should. i do love solitaire

it also has a dope solitaire minigame

the okami maps look so good in this

excited to get my wibbly wobbly ring

i kept having to double check that this was the actual nintendo youtube account and not some sort of parody

they're gonna put Suzy in smash sometime after the release of delta rune chapter 2

also: i love every depiction nintendo presents of dallas

esa is a spectacular game i love it

yeah i think it’s pretty perfect

i’m also seeing people already do fun things like using an obama mii with the outfit (no “helmet” so you see his face). it’s good

honestly, as jarring it is for me to say this, it fits the IP as:

1. Undertale is inspired by Mother and Mother characters are also in Smash
2. the decision is grounded in fan culture like UT is
3. it's jokey and sneaky to put Sans in a very modest manner, much like UT itself is jokey and sneaky.

this guy's videos are one of the best ways to kill 30-60 minutes lol

Jumping Flash 2 when

that was a fuckin amazing song!!! i bet it comes from an amazing game!

not ever being shat on by a bird is the best precognition ever imo

got em

ooh

Pretty cool!

from what i can tell whatever they do is proprietary so no way i'll be able to support it

I don't think it does. I use it mostly to connect my ps4 controller with my switch

nice hh!

does it even work with like bluetooth speakers and stuff?
