Alex Kidd is alright, it was released almost half a decade before Sonic so that is a tough comparison. Super Mario Bros predates it, it’s easily the superior game, but it was also the high watermark for platform games. If you played Alex Kidd early your reference point would be things like Wonder Boy (which I prefer) or Pac-Land.

Alex Kidd was initially designed as a Dragon Ball game. So the mascot readjustment happened later.

I thought they felt graphically bland too, a big aspect of Metroid is the sense of place, like the rainswept planet you arrive in on super Metroid. It’s a shame as the mechanics of the game are really appealing..Something about 2.5d often looks and feels a little off for me, Nintendo have usually managed it better than most like crafted world.

I this. I have them for the GBA still but they’d flourish on Switch and those original boxes are delicate,. The DS ones are obviously more complex to transfer but hopefully the excellent M2 will sort these out one day too.

I actually like the Amiibos for this and wanted to purchase them regardless. It was kind of cool in Mario Mario they’d correspond with different sprites. But this bonus is both unimaginative and greedy.

If there is one important step to starting your own studio it is quitting school. Good luck!

Chicory has received excellent reviews so far. So it’s bit harsh describing it as mediocre.

I quite like FFXV it has its rough spots but it also has many charming moments.

I don’t get the appeal of Diablo it feels like a clicker game to me. But each to their own.

The weirdest part is that 6 should not be a bad mark. It should be above average. Reviewers seem to reserve the lower end of the scale for nearly unplayable games.

They are both decent titles. Regardless of where they fall in regards to the other entries in their respective series. They were the critical high points of the Switch’s existence, there have been some passable titles released but it has been slightly underwhelming since then from Nintendo.

We all know DQ characters are Enix. Whatever the company is called.

I love Nintendo. I enjoy the Mario Golf games, but really want a true triple A Nintendo experience. Metroid, Zelda, Mario or something new. |

Do EA now own Dizzy the Egg?

I want to be optimistic, but I am tired of survival sims, which is what this appears to be. Maybe they’ll bring something fresh.

It was okay, a bit janky in places. But fun.

Graphically it looks pretty good. But it is weirdly empty right now, so looks more like a tech demo. Promising still.

So many OG psvr games were held back by controller tracking limitations, or simply not having access to a control stick. This is already a huge step up.

Did Carano get the response from Disney for supporting the Republicans? I was fairly sure she was called out for comparing her situation as someone who voted for the losing party to that of being Jewish during the Holocaust.
