anyway it was good to see that still there's no one at bethseda who'e ever been lucky enough to ever see a human face yet and so have had to sort of vaguely recreate them from hearsay like some medieval monks drawing animals in a bestiary

actuallyw hat i like about it is that no mans sky was just the mako bits from mass effect 1 but without a story, and now this is just no mans sky but with a story

[dng]

progress

New Bethesda game should just be this over and over

I bought a new laptop that can play new games but now I don’t think I want to play any of them

sonic the hedgehog officially the product of a criminal mind

I bet Sonic was up to no good with those gold rings. It seems obvious to me now that those rings were collected, sold on, and the proceeds used to fund mercenaries operating in what was once called Zaire.

EUROGAMER: Peter Molyneux teases new project with idea that's "never been seen in a game" before.

And probably involves the player controlling a donkey made out of coffee, or something.

Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight[note 1] is a cyberpunk side-scrolling action platform game developed and published by Capcom for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1990. It was marketed as a science-fiction-themed spin-off to the 1987 arcade game Street Fighter. Its English localization changed the name and backstory of the main character to imply that he was Ken from Street Fighter, whereas the protagonist in the original Japanese version is a completely unrelated character named Kevin.

That is just excellently nuts!

[vom]

just finished Tears of the Kingdom

a tight "180 hours or more" experience

it was very good but I wouldn't say no to a smaller Zelda game next time... seems unlikely though given how spectacularly popular these two have been

[vom]

I think I hate gorons though

[dng]

a zelda game set entirely in a graveyard of sad ghosts

[vom]

if Link's Awakening was inspired by Twin Peaks then surely we need an absolutely terrifying Zelda inspired by Twin Peaks: The Return

[vom]

ooh now that I've finished the game I can see my actual completion percentage

62.35%

lol

[blombluss]

62.35% is a Zelda GCSE pass, isn't it?

I hope Nintendo continues to innovate, and it's new machine has a 3ft high brass funnel at the centre of it's design!

[Mrak]

I guess I'll believe it when I see it. There's been next gen/switch pro rumours for a while. Also, no actual rumours about what it will be. At least with the Wii there was "revolutionary controller" and switch was "TV/handheld hybrid" rumours going for ages. Only thing I've heard is a vague "next gen tegra" which, while I'm sure would be a huge boost, would probably fall a bit flat like the Wii U.

Though if they released a new Switch with driftless controllers and controllers that I could use on the sofa without them lagging, I'd be happy.

Even more vital though is the 3ft high brass funnel at the centre of it's design.

[dng]

It'll be a switch, but huge

[dng]

Actually I hope they release a handheld that can only be played in portrait mode

[The Robotic Anomaly]

I hope the Virtual Console is even more shit, and maybe you have to plug in an original cartridge to the Nintendo Anti-Piracy Device (sold separately) to play Super Tennis

[Mrak]

Actually I hope they release a handheld that can only be played in portrait mode

To take on the evercade exp? I think, The one that can be played in portrait mode.

[blombluss]

Though if they released a new Switch with driftless controllers

That would please my brother and his kids who've had all sorts of problems with that issue.

[blombluss]

It'll be a switch, but huge

And only works under water!

[Bruce Sato]

One of my joycon pairs developed stick drift. The other pair had it straight out of the box, which is a bit much really.

[dng]

urgh

[dng]

i think thats the main thing thats put me off ever getting a switch

[dng]

and the fact the games all cost a billion pounds obviously

[endar]

switch lite is better for that

[blombluss]

I leike the look of the new machin:

I see that and raise you a Twin Peaks game

[blombluss]

Blimeys, in a cool way! *thumbs up*

[vom]

ooh now that I've finished the game I can see my actual completion percentage

62.35%

lol

many hours later I have finished all the side quests and found all of the wells and caves and now my percentage is....

69%



I think I might be done. I guess most of the rest of the completion percentage is koroks

[endar]

there's no need to be rude

[dng]

Best joke

[blombluss]

The only joke needed

[dng]

blue fire - where someone decides to see what'd happen if you remade hollow knight in 3D but with charmless characters, boring environments, terrible controls, and loads of fiddly tedious platforming sections

[dng]

maybe it gets better

[Bruce Sato]

I believe I've now got further in Wind Waker than I ever have before: seven Triforce pieces, plus the ghost ship map (which I'm pretty sure I've never found on previous attempts). Surely even I can finish it from here?
I'm still missing quite a lot of pieces of heart, though.

[vom]

sounds like you should go to hospital!!!

[dng]

oh no, mario is DEAD

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-66574424

(not actually dead)

[blombluss]

BBC - "Nintendo announced the news on X"

Bah! They could've at least put X / Twitter, or summat.

Also, multiverse Black Country Mairo will now come to the fore.

[dng]

Mairo has been replaced by someone doing a mairo impression

[blombluss]

This is a job for Mike Yarwood!

In a couple of months you’ll be able to play starfield which will be exactly the same but in space

i just got a promotional email from microsoft about starfield, telling me that if i pay extra for a "premium" edition of it i can play it a week earlier than everyone else
