Just listen to that shit!

You're in a town of a bunch of scummy fucks and a Goomba with a ponytail is helping out and also later there's an old pirate captain Bob-omb and those Delfinos from Mario Sunshine are all mobsters and 8000 other things!

    Y'know it just really hit me how cool it was to have a place like Rogueport in a Mario game

    Not a whole lot of wretched hives of scum and villainy in Nintendo games

    Thousand year door is OK but I like 1 better.

    TYD was the start of action commands being way to involved and taking way to long in Mario RPGS.

    Also it has got some real blatent padding.

    Vivian was my permanent party member for most of my TYD runs after i got her

    She's really cool and all her abilities are super useful

    I thought TYD hit the sweet spot for action commands and the whole crowd dynamic was a fantastic addition

    Last year, I went to a gaming convention. There, I found English-translated reproduction carts of various RPGs that have yet to have official English releases.

    I also found a copy of TTYD. I think I'm most happy about the latter.

    I played it all the way through on a rental, and for years I was annoyed that I didn't just buy it at the time.

    The best partner is the quick-switch badge.

    I think they've been as vague about Gamecube games on the Switch as they were with Gamecube games on the Wii U

    I believe that was one of the (mostly reliable) leaks

    If you could bring over only one third party AAA franchise (not already confirmed) to the switch, which would you bring

    I don't have an answer yet, but I'm thinking of parameters

    It has to be something that's easy to pop into for 10-15 minutes and accomplish quick and simple goals

    But it can't be too massive, so something like a Rockstar game is out cause there's like a 3 minute load time every time you start it up and sleep mode is basically not a thing for this system

    Maybe something like Mass Effect?

    Wait will there not be a sleep mode?
    I would think the thing they want you to take with you on the go would have a sleep mode like their current handheld does

    It's a hard question because in general I'd probably just play 3rd party stuff on pc and PS4 like I have with the Wii U

    Nintendo systems are for Nintendo games and games made exclusively for Nintendo systems, of which there's usually only a handful

    I'm sure it does, but you won't want to

    6 hour battery life maximum is not very conducive to a sleep mode

    What's the actual life of a 3ds if you play continuously?

  • CharmyCharmy Registered User regular
    I've been meaning to play through Paper Mario 2, since it's been maybe a decade since I last touched it, and this thread inspired me to finally take the plunge. You're doing great work here, @Mr. G.

    Within a minutes of starting the game, I witnessed two Piantas in business suits beat up some kind of bird man. Rogueport is a hard-ass town.

    I have a twitter.

    Is Persona a AAA franchise? Because I want to play Persona on the Switch. All of them if possible.

    TMS is like a lighter, less mechanically heavy persona. If you liked it I'd recommend giving persona 4 a try

    Skate 4 on the Switch would be awesome

    That's a lighter open world series that you could quickly load up and tool around in for a brief period of time
