And that's when you track down where the man lives and discreetly turn his apartment into a giant crane game with you as the operator and
Oh
I think I understand how supervillains happen now
No, no, no, you're going about this all wrong. You take his family and loved ones and strap them to blocks with a hook on it. He then has to operate the piddly-weak crane to grab as many as he can, to drop them to safety, before the incinerators kick on.
When you play a crane game, you might end up with something
When you play Star Fox, you end up with nothing but bitterness
Also a friend of mine won a PS4 last year, it wasn't a crane game though, it was one of those things where you have to get the arm to move into the slot and "unlock" the item
star fox 64 is a really cool game that i would have a hard time saying was worth full retail price
For me it's pretty much the last time the public was all-in on a large-scale arcade-style operation for full price
Starfox 64 had gobs of content that was genuinely challenging; if you did things perfectly and ignored cutscenes you could experience it in about five hours total, but I don't think anyone was actually capable of doing that. SF64 hails from an era where getting down and dirty and whipping ass and clawing for a high score was its own justification because the mechanics were really fun; at the time it was absolutely worth full retail price, if only because people were willing to pay for it
I'm worried about SF0 at least partially because I think Nintendo is goign to try to make the game longer, and that is inevitably going to take away from what made 64 such a razor-edged experience
a while back I mentioned that star fox would probably work pretty well as a sporadically released episodic thing, or just smaller downloadable titles
I still think this is the case, at least if they're in the weird situation of still trying to emulate the 64 game
Do Europeans generally just resign themselves to using American names to make things easier?
Because I'm sure of all the Star Fox 64 mentions I've seen on these boards over the years, some of them had to have come from Europeans, but I've never once heard anyone mention "Lylat Wars" (which I think is a much cooler name)
TTYD has some growth near the end for sure, and there are ways to make your attacks, like, twenty times as powerful? But in general the numbers are going to stay pretty low for a long time. Growth is slow.
It sounds like we're at similar points in the game, UV. I went into the sewers in Toad Town after beating the Ninja Turtles boss group, and that giant squid thing kicked the shit out of me.

Honestly I kinda forget that it was called Lylat Wars at times. The only time I'll explicitly call something by its PAL name is if its US name overlaps with something here. So I'll call 'Neighbours' 'Bad Neighbours' because the former is a soap.
Alright I'm getting back into Fire Emblem
I'm at chapter 8 and I got until the end of 11 to get Chrom up to S so we can get hitched
As long as your avatar has the highest support with him she'll marry him regardless, so if she's the only one at B or A you're fine
Oh, really? I could have sworn I'd found a guide a while back that said if they weren't at S then he'll marry one of 5 people with the Avatar being pretty low on the list

Well, that's good to know
nope for chrom it just picks his highest support, so even if you were at C as long as you were his only support you'd still marry him
if he has no supports he marries a rando generic village girl

I think the best course Star Fox could have taken would have been to play up how it was based on TV shows like Thunderbirds.
Release the game as a digital Episodic title. Then you can either buy each Episode or you can buy "Star Fox: Season One." Each Episode is a series of 5-6 rail shooter missions (and a few all-range areas for some boss fights and special objectives). Then every other month or so another episode comes out until Episode 6 or so which can be the season finale.
In a manner similar to Yoshi's Wooly World (yarn) or Kirby's Rainbow Curse (clay), have the art design made to look like a puppet show (ie. the original SNES box art), even with the muppet-style wires for their arms plainly visible during cutscenes.
So you offer people a few bite-sized chunks each not quite as long as Star Fox 64, but each one you own also adds more maps and junk to the Multiplayer modes and such. Then make sure it's got leaderboards and all, and just enough story for people to care what happens next without bogging it down like a post-Genesis Sonic game. Also throw in some crazy semi-obscure secrets like the Black Hole and that Slot Machine level and such for people to spend some time hunting for.
Then if it's successful enough you can expand on to doing a "Star Fox: Season 2" once the team is ready to continue.
I know some people think that having on-foot levels in a star fox game is heresy
but if it turned out that zero had on-foot levels developed by platinum, well I think that would be rad as hell
this is a strong point
not many games where you can combo someone into a launcher into an allied strafing run
Fox uses Reflector to bounce the enemies projectile back at them, then Fox Illusions up to them to combo, ending with a launcher where they are then bounced between Slippy and Peppy performing parallel barrel rolls so that you can Fire Fox up to them and continue the combo until you launch them a second time from midair and then Falco comes by for a strafing run to finish them off.

So when are we doing a Japan trip? I want you to win me all the things.
Just
Mostly incompatible
Every once in a blue moon you can find one that can actually grab something
And then a man comes to "fix" it and suddenly it can't hold shit anymore.
That's because it's programmed to actually be able to hold on to something every now and then. Every other time it's dropping the toy immediately.
Oh

Rogue Squadron is a completely different genre, though
Also it's even deader than Starfox
you
well yeah, rogue squadron is the best game on the system
okay now you're just being silly

only one podcast can decide
Nintendo Badge Arcade is subjectively the second best game Nintendo put out last year after Woolly World
I can't speak to its objective strengths, other than the fact that it's cheaper than Star Fox 64

I don't like Sega consoles but goddamn they had some cool names, or at least I thought so
Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast
Nomad
Eats batteries for breakfast
The only issue I have with the Genesis is that it wasn't Sega's first system.
Steam: pazython
Because I've gotten two of the seven Star Spirits back in the first Paper Mario, and Mario has only gotten one hammer upgrade and no boot upgrades yet
My playtime is at seven hours but Mario's jump attack is doing just as much damage as it did in his first fight, this doesn't feel right

Edit: That being said, the game is great!
Then I remembered I was gonna call today and have them merge my Wii U and 3DS NNIDs into one so I'm all ready for My Nintendo
It was relatively painless
And their hold music was the Hyrule Field theme so hey
I'm at chapter 8 and I got until the end of 11 to get Chrom up to S so we can get hitched
I like to use low-level Street/Spot Pass teams to grind supports.

I don't know what you call those sticks that move their arms around, so I said "muppet-style wires" instead of just "wires."
Edit: Google says they are called "hand rods" apparently.

Then you drop a Landmaster on them.
At what point should I use this Master Seal? And what does an advanced class entail?
Level 20, unless you reclassed already in which case level 10's fine.
Better caps, new skills, and sometimes new weapons or a horse or something like that.
Seriously, the caps are way higher in Awakening.
Why I fear the ocean.
