Maybe go into a level for the first time thinking of it as more of a recon, and if there's a part where you're having a tough time, buy some power-ups.
It's a great game otherwise, but the way the difficulty ramps up is annoying. |
Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
It definitely is a game that doesn’t mess around. I mean it’s got six worlds and if the second is hard already then damn. :lol:
It starts out relatively mild and then really just ramps up fast. It is a pretty fun game though and I’ve always liked DK. Personally I think Dixie is the best companion to have. |
Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
I'm not finding it's horribly difficult, I'm just not enjoying it very much. There's something strangely generic about the title.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
I'm looking forward to Octopath Traveler this Friday, but the way the characters intertwine... or don't... seems interesting.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
Inti Creates is the new Capcom? This looks awesome!

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
THAT's the kind of retro indie stuff I'm looking for! Sega Saturn-type, 32-bit era 2D. Nice.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
That looks outstanding!

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
Isn't that like a remade 3ds game? Or is it actually a sequel?

There are local ads out there for stuff like this. I am looking forward to this game though.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
Any of you Switchers play Fortnite? I got no friends on the Switch to run doubles/squads with.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
I'll take 'em all. Don't have a Switch yet but these will all be in the back of my mind, for sure.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
Just bought a Switch, putting games on my wishlist for my birthday next month.
I got the Amazon Prime Day deal that included a 64GB microSD and $20 Nintendo Cash for free. Any site that tracks deals on digital purchases? |
Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
Cheapassgamer has a thread of Switch/3DS/Wii U deals that’s updated weekly.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
So I see Hori has a Joy Con out that has an actual D-Pad rather than just the directional buttons. Might get one since it’s only $25.

Re: Nintendo Switch: Building a New Generation of Hardware from Scratch
Has anyone else dove into Octopath Traveler? I finished up the last two Chapter 2 stories I had left at about 25 hours in. Now I'm working on grinding levels to get ready for the Chap 3's. Cyrus main.
