New icons were released this morning. They are available to purchase once you have played their respective games. -
The game has sold stupidly well for Capcom.

I done exactly the same last week whilst playing Kirby Blowout Blast. I changed the 3DS theme to match what I was playing and then went through all the ones I picked up over the years. It's such a shame Nintendo went backwards with these kinds of things. I hope they don't scrap the platinum coins/avatar stuff that they have for the Switch. I enjoy unlocking them and earning coins. Hopefully it carries on forward and they expand on it some more.

I'm hoping the console/UI has a little personality to it. The Switch, for all the success it had, was stupidly bland. No themes, folders, music, boring homescreen design....the list goes on. The Wii U at least had that going for it. All the consoles now are pretty boring in this regard and it would be nice if Nintendo recapture some of that past magic with the Switch 2.

Yeah, I was reading on Era the other day about this. Games, dvds and even some blurays are starting to suffer from this. Some examples were even kept in correct conditions but still ended up suffering from rot. It's nice to have a physical collection but both discs and consoles seem to be ticking time bombs.

I wonder which 3rd party games will be shown? Gotta imagine Nintendo will want highlight some big hitters and show that the device will be getting a good amount of support. Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth would be a good showpiece. Now with added door textures. Personally, I want the Kingdom Hearts games on the thing. None of this streaming garbage. Give me them all on a cart. Resident Evil 2 Remake is another. In fact, getting Resident Evil 7, 8, along with 2 and 3 remakes, would be amazing. If Microsoft don't have Rare Replay on the thing then they are just leaving money on the table.

Earlier today, I had a bit of a panic. I was going through my Gamecube games and noticed Smash Bros, Mario Kart and Mario Tennis weren't in their boxes. I've never lost a game before and so found it hard to believe that I would lose 3 in one go. I remembered I had a little Gamecube disc holder and so popped up the attic and had a look. They were in there, as well as a 251 memory card that I didn't realise I was missing. Success! Around 10 years ago I had a games night for the youth at my church. I took my Gamecube and set up a retro corner for them and the missing games were the ones I took. I must have put them in the disc case so that I didn't have to take the game boxes. Crazy that they've been sat there all this time. Crisis averted.

Yeah, you'd love it. Did the original game come over here on the Switch or was that left in Japan as well?

I was looking to tackle one of my next pledge games and after jumping back and forth between a few of them, I settled on this. I've put about 6 hours into the game so far and I'm disappointed in myself that it's taken me so long to get a round to playing it, especially as I loved the first game. So far I've unlocked Terry, Carver, Maribel, Torneko and Ruff. My team consists of the 2 main characters, Ceaser and Desdemona. Apparently Carver and Angelo are pretty OP and so I imagine I will switch to those at some point. The gameplay is stupidly fun. The original game is still the best Warriors type game that I have played and this is certainly shaping up to match or even exceed it. It's not just hack and slash gameplay that is fun but also the monster summon/medal mechanic. It's great saving a bunch of the stringer ones and unleashing them during a boss fight. I've been enjoying going around the wild areas and just grinding exp between missions, as well as doing the side quests that pop up in town. During my exp grinding I came across this fella... Needless to say I got a large amount of exp. Sadly, I've not see one since. The story is about 20 hours long but the platinum tales around 200. I'm in for the long haul with this one.

This was released last year but the game recently got an update that gave it trophies, which meant to had to be played. 😛 The last time I played this was back on the 360. I had a great time on it back then but sadly that hasn't been the case here. I enjoy the early Lego games due to their lack of open world stuff but this was still a slog to get 100%. You have to playthrough the Story mode, then through Freeplay mode, then through Super Story mode (six levels back to back x 3 times) and finally the Blue Minikit hunt. You are essentially going though each of the levels 4 times. It's very tedious. With this being one of the first licensed Lego games they still hadn't got the balance right with the stud multipliers. It takes an insane amount to buy the first couple, by which time you have pretty much finished the game. This means you have to essentially farm studs at the end of the game, instead of doing it as you play through the levels. One thing I was happy not to see return from the 360 version was the achievement for completing the Battle of Endor without the Falcon being destroyed once. This took me so long to do and so was thrilled that they left it out of this version. Yeah, not as good as I remember it being but I do love the Platinum trophy image.

Nintendo Direct (Thursday 27th March 2025 @ 14:00 GMT)
Hero-of-Time replied to Julius's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Sat and watched it again this morning. It was such a weird Direct. It felt a little desperate. Things such as the Virtual Carts and new app (can't believe they ended the show with this) could have just been a quick youtube video or blog post. Rhythm Paradise and the Tomadachi game showing up but not releasing until 2026 felt something more suited to a Microsoft/Sony event. Nintendo have been great in recent years in showing and delivering games in a short space of time. I'm not sure what their thinking was here. The show really lacked any killer blow. I get it, the Switch is on its way out but it seems to gone out with a whimper and not a bang. Dunno if it was Nate or Grubb but one of them said there are 3 Nintendo games that they know of that didn't show up in the Direct for some reason. Gotta imagine Kirby and FE were these. If so, I've no idea why they would hold them back any further. One thing about these shows (Directs and SoP) now is that all of them lack exclusives. Most of the games shown are now on all platforms and while that's great for consumers, the shows themselves feel less special to me. Meh/10. -
Nintendo Today! App (Available Today – 27th March 2025)
Hero-of-Time replied to Julius's topic in Nintendo Gaming
This was pretty much my experience. Downloaded it, faffed on a bit and deleted it. I'll continue to get my news from the likes of Era. I'm not really sure what this brings to the table to people who already follow gaming news elsewhere.
