Because the Star Fox Zero thread was bumped I went and got the Wii U plus Star Fox out of storage.
To be honest, I feel like it looks a little dull. I'm not sure the auto-attacking mechanic is for me. I tend to prefer the classical arpg as in, when I press a button, the action occurs. I still do like turn-based, but I find I'm not quite as immersed in such games. I'm pretty picky on the games I do end up enjoying when turn-based is the predominant style. Now Xenoblade just looks like it takes this a step further. I could be completely wrong, but from watching clips, it looks like you just end up watching most of your fights rather than participating.
I really wish there was a demo...
I’m very envious of Forza and HaloExcited to buy a Series S tomorrow. When I unpack it and set it up on Saturday, I'll introduce it to the Switch and make sure it knows its position in the pack.

I am actually very much looking forward to getting one and trying Game Pass because I spent most of 2002 to like 2016 playing across Nintendo systems and Xbox so maybe Series S is the opportunity for Xbox to win back a permanent place in my set up
It's intended to encourage multiplayer since you can complete the level with up to four characters in one go, but it's still kinda crappy. I never managed to 100% the game because of this, despite doing three all stars runs across Wii U and Switch.I'm going to post again about 3D World because it's so much fun! I made it to the final world and beat the mystery house level (after MANY failed attempts) only to realize that in order to 100%, I have to beat every level with every character. I might be playing it a while longer... it works out though, I have been trying to avoid RPG's/long games for the next few weeks while I finish the semester. 3D World and Hades have given me some great pick up and play options recently.
I see. I can just speedrun the earlier levels with everyone since I have all the stamps and stars, but doing the crown world levels 5 times sounds scary. I might still get it done if I don't start playing something else over the next few weeks, but it will be tough.It's intended to encourage multiplayer since you can complete the level with up to four characters in one go, but it's still kinda crappy.

Pretty much the same for me, I tried Xenoblade on the 3DS and came to the conclusion it wasn't for me. I honestly just did not understand the combat no matter how hard I tried, and once I kept dying against a boss I moved on to other things.I eventually came to the conclusion that I just don't care about Monolith Soft games. Aside from the blatant sexualization that plagues their titles, I care little for their storytelling and combat design.

Ok, who did this?
If it helps, get to the end of each crown level world, then turn on the controllers to get the other characters in there? Could save some time.I see.

Everyone is welcomed to have their opinion on stuff, unless it turns into another "you are stupid if you like X" like it is from certain mods in other places
bonus points for implying that XC2 players are all potential sexual predators
functionally this is itWhere is the AC thread here on Fami? I got to unload some turnips because I felt hella ambitious this past Sunday trying to get back in the game lol
God blessfunctionally this is it

So yesterday I said I’d be out daily if I didn’t get a cool Kapp’n island and I did with the shooting star island. Today I still felt similar and I got an off season snowing island and caught my first string fish and pond smelt! Kapp’n is coming through big time now! I’m down to just six fish...famiboards.com
I'm really tempted to get one myself. I'm still not sure how I feel about 500 GB for an all digital console, so I'll probably wait and see if they introduce a 1 TB version sometime next year. But other than that, the proposition is really tempting. Especially because it doesn't need its own appartment like the other current gen alternatives.Excited to buy a Series S tomorrow. When I unpack it and set it up on Saturday, I'll introduce it to the Switch and make sure it knows its position in the pack.

I will try that for sure with champion's road and the mystery house (if it lets me do that in the final room). I haven't attempted champion's road too seriously yet but I can already tell I won't want to do it 5 times.If it helps, get to the end of each crown level world, then turn on the controllers to get the other characters in there? Could save some time.
As much as I love 3D World, I've never gotten all 5 stars. I did all the levels with Mario and most with Luigi, though the Mystery House ended my hopes there. Maybe one day I'll do it. Makes how easy getting 5 stars is in Bowser's Fury pretty funny.
Yeah, the storage side of things is a little irritating, but I'm definitely planning on using it less than the Switch so I don't think I'll run into issues in the short-term. The lack of a disc drive is also slightly annoying because I'm sure I still have some 360 games which I either might revisit or which I never actually played because I bought them second-hand after release (hello, Lost Odyssey). But, on balance, I think a Series S as a complementary machine to my Switch is a good move.I'm really tempted to get one myself.

Oh man, Bowser's Fury is lovely. A short but sweet romp that nicely combines the power ups and platforming focus of 3D World proper with more open progression. That's a title I really want to go through one last time before the new year. I already played it twice - once on my own, another time as the assist Bowser Jr. while my partner was Mario. It actually became my partner's favorite 3D Mario! They said that Bowser's Fury reminded them of how fun 3D platforming could be and loved mix and matching power ups to tackle different situations.I will try that for sure with champion's road and the mystery house (if it lets me do that in the final room). I haven't attempted champion's road too seriously yet but I can already tell I won't want to do it 5 times.
Now that you mention Bowser's Fury, I'm reminded that I have barely played it. I'll get to it sometime!

They really did not want anyone to even so much as imagine the use of a Wii U without a functional GamePad within 3 feet of the player.How fucked up is it that Nintendo never released an update to allow you to change the settings on a Wii U without the gamepad? They were just like "fuck you, our way or the uh sourway"

It appears to be pickup only. So if it’s at a local store you are goodThis better still be on later I swear to god....
No, I'm kinda broke right now. I meant later as in this weekend lolIt appears to be pickup only. So if it’s at a local store you are good
The lack of a disc drive is gladly not an issue for me since I haven't owned an Xbox yet. It would be dealbreaking if I was considering a PS5, though, because most of my PS4 library is physical.Yeah, the storage side of things is a little irritating, but I'm definitely planning on using it less than the Switch so I don't think I'll run into issues in the short-term.

Plus, my white SwOLED and Series S have the same colour scheme so there's that.
I still own the OG 500 GB PS4 and I know I've occasionally ran into issues there, so with how much bigger current gen games are I can see it becoming an issue quickly. If I get a Series S, it would be a supplementary console to my Switch, but I still feel like 1 TB should be the bare minimum with how much space games need nowadays. I know they wouldn't be able to do ghat at the current price, though. Those SSDs are expensive.Depends a little on how you play. I find 500GB (in reality much less than that) a bit limiting for Xbox One/Series games so there's some fridge juggling involved if you're in the mood for some Wii nostalgia. You can still play your OG XBOX, 360 and unoptimized ONE games off an external HDD as well, though.
Today I learned Kirbys air ride was a n64 game originally
In case anyone missed @Suswave dropping two whole albums of bangers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Champion Road is a patience exerciseI rolled credits on 3D World. What a fun game! Now I gotta decide if I wanna push on to Champion’s Road or start Bowser’s Fury..
Oh I know, I cleared Champion Road on Wii U. I’m not sure I’ve got it in me to do it again honestly. At least not right now.Champion Road is a patience exercise
Bowser's Fury is a wonderful delight
