Glen-i Posted May 24, 2022 Posted May 24, 2022 This became surprisingly apparent to me when I took my WiiU to the local community centre and let a bunch of kids play Smash. A lot of them gravitated toward the Wii Remote and the Wii Classic Controller, while the ones aged over 10 would use the WiiU Pro Controller or GameCube Controller. That whole thing about games that don't require the shoulder buttons is true too. Apart from Smash (which can be fun even if you don't use shield or dodge), I started focusing on games that avoided them, because young kids didn't grasp it as well as older people. Quick multiplayer games like Runbow and Towerfall became quick non-Smash favourites because of this, as well as New Super Mario Bros U for more co-operative shenanigans. 1 1
Julius Posted May 27, 2022 Posted May 27, 2022 Another remastered Star Wars game is on its way to the Switch: KOTOR II comes on 8th June.
Cube Posted May 27, 2022 Posted May 27, 2022 They're also making the Restored Content mod available for it, which adds a ton of unfinished stuff to the game.
MindFreak Posted June 9, 2022 Posted June 9, 2022 Isn't it like an expected Direct rather than rumoured? I at least would expect some announcements during June. But cool if true. I really like the look of Turtles.
Glen-i Posted June 9, 2022 Posted June 9, 2022 Yeah, I'm day-1'ing that shiz! Hoping some N-Europe members can get a 4 player sesh together.

Them also coming to Switch I imagine is still on the table, but it looks a bit shakier with an update from Atlus that it's coming to PS and Steam with no mention of the Switch: Honestly, my biggest issue with moneyhatting - as a consumer - is honestly just the confusion it tends to generate afterwards about what's releasing where, as we've seen here with these Persona games

Hero-of-Time Posted June 14, 2022 Posted June 14, 2022 New Fire Emblem game rumours from Emily Rogers, so it could go either way. Reveal hidden contents Here is what I can share about the new Fire Emblem game. - Upcoming Fire Emblem is a new game, not a remake. Brand new story. - Collaboration between Intelligent Systems, Koei Tecmo and Gust (division of Koei Tecmo Holdings). - Gust heavily assisted with the visuals / graphics. Graphics are an improvement over "Three Houses". - Originally intended as an anniversary game to celebrate FE's 30th anniversary. The game has been finished for over a year. - Main character (main lord) has strange red and blue hair. His mother is a dragon. - New "Emblems" gimmick allows players to summon "FE characters from the past" for your squad.
Jonnas Posted June 14, 2022 Posted June 14, 2022 FE rumours are almost always bunk. I'd bet against this one too. Reveal hidden contents "Finished for a year"? Fuck off. "Better graphics than Three Houses"? It's always a new art style, those can't be "better". Unless the game you're describing looks exactly the same, but with better oranges, fuck off. Emily's description of the game (half-dragon protag, summonable lords from previous games) sound like obvious retreads from Fates and Awakening. That kind of vapid creativity always sounds fake. I am aware I'm always at the risk of looking like a fool whenever I reject these rumours so strongly. It's a risk I'm always willing to take. 1

darksnowman Posted June 15, 2022 Posted June 15, 2022 Said to myself I'd get the next Fire Emblem--I expected them to be churned out faster--so it could well be this one so bring it or get Three Houses back in stock.
