Really hyped for this. Haven’t been hyped for Street Fighter since IV. 

Maaaaann…we are ALL playing The Sims. Because we are all sims and we are living in a computer simulation right now and people don’t even realize it…!!!

You can go for Gannon from the start of the game so you could finish it today/tomorrow if you wanted.

Now that you mention it…I guess I could. I haven’t like…done EVERYTHING in the game yet. But I woke all the Divine Beasts and got the Master Sword, so by that measure? I’m more than prepared. 
 

But there is still so much game out there..!

I’ve been playing a lot of ps2 since getting that set on deck finally and with archive.org being out of control for easy content. Nba Street and SSX Tricky are still so damn good and been playing some Shinobi.

My roommate in college got into Tricky pretty hard. I always preferred SSX3 personally, but its predecessor was undoubtedly great. 

Meanwhile, I'm working my way through Breath of the Wild, currently. I'm not gonna finish this before Tears of the Kingdom comes out, will I? LOL

God damn that car horn, lol.

For reference do you want to preorder or wait until release? Life is interesting right now so while I can and will make a mental note of I owe you Diablo 4. I may forget and you might have to remind me once or twice. I know I owe @GameDadGrantUntil We Die Switch. Wait didn't you get a deck? I can get you a steam copy cuz development hell on the Switch due to the war. (Russian devs in Kaliningrad)

I do have a Steam Deck. My son mostly uses, though, lol. My handle there is the same as it is here.

Do y’all just want the physical copy cuz it’s prime or are you buying a lot of your switch games physical? 

Yes.

It's a fucking great game. I don't think I'll get the remaster, just because I've played them so recently, but they were both criminally underrated when they came out. Mostly because of terrible voice acting.

 

I'm going to go ahead and assume that they didn't have voice actors re-record lines, so... it's still going to be bad. The voice acting is totally not necessary, though. You can't see characters' mouths move during cut scenes, for example.

To be fair, the voice acting was only terrible in the first game. They got actual professional actors for Baten Kaitos Origins. And...not for nothing...but the voice acting can be turned completely off if you choose. (I left them on during Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean because I wanted to hear how terrible the voices were, lulz)

I played maybe 30 min of it back in the day. Does that count?

 

 

No.  

Anyone that has not played these games before? 

YOU ARE NOT READY.

Very interested to hear your impressions. I’ve been teetering on getting one for a couple months now. I don’t have any kind of ability to play PC games(just have a work laptop) so that alone feels worth it. 

It's pretty cool. Nice to get some "Nontendo" games on a portable finally. It's easy to use and works well for PC games (and Xbox/Playstation games).

Check out "In Retrospect" for a cool retro runner/platform game. 

Very cool! Enjoy! 

1tb storage? Talk about Big Deck Energy. 

Cool that they did that despite their projected profits are looking to be less than originally expected.

Let me dream! 

I don't necessarily need a full reveal, but...any kind of update on Metroid Prime 4 would be greatly appreciated.

Alright, fair enough. Carry on, then!

I'd also say Quest 64. Being an N64 only house I was desperate for JRPGs.

If all you had was an N64, being an RPG fan was torture. Especially if you were an SNES fan from the previous generation. 

Eh. Unless games have a unique art style/cel shading practically all games look the same. And even then it is all up to personal preference. 

Who really cares bout graphics anymore anyway? Everything looks awesome nowadays.

The games he mentioned don't have physical versions for PC.

Ah. I just assumed he was on Playstation. 

Yeah, that sucks. Do you have the option to buy physical games?

Back to the Future-NES

Yup, same here. 
 

LJN has been well-documented as one of the worst publishers from that era. I wonder what could be considered their “best” game? Like, an actually good one.

Why didn’t you italicize Sonic Frontiers? 

Good catch! Fixed!  

Someday.

Ha! I’ve got a few new games I stopped halfway through and just started replaying this instead. It’s so good 

It's pretty daunting. There is just so much to do. It took me 5 years to finally attempt to properly play it. 

Maybe after this I can tackle games like Skyrim, GTA, The Witcher 3, Assassin's Creed, Xenoblade, etc....
