what a sad time this was if you were a kid with just a gameboy, or just wanted a good game in portable form, instead of creating something from the ground up with the hardware's capabilities in mind they sold you a withered memory of an existing game

still genuinely can't believe a mainstream Mario game acknowledges WarioWare like this and even if it's only one music track and one (and a half) costume, i feel them acknowledging WarioWare at ALL is such a rarity that it needs to be given its flowers

besides Bomberman 64: The Second Attack I don't really care for anything that Yoshi-P has done, so I'd prefer not to keep hearing about his thoughts on stuff

hebereke's popoon / super famicom sun electronics corp, 1993

they just remade Dragon Quest VII, one of the longest RPGs ever, with super nice assets, fidelity, voice acting, roughly the same level of abstraction as the original, only a couple bits of content no one cared about trimmed, and besides streamlining a tad too much there were very few complaints

you know it's a good game when it's got these type of rock pool formations in caves

I totally understand how motions are a big learning hurdle for many people, but I still can't wrap my head around how the common solution of more and more buttons and button combinations to bypass them is supposed to be less intimidating

The Garden and Cliffs border on console is all part of one artwork that scrolls up as you climb ever higher.

all I remember is folks not even able to start up the new SimCity, just stuck at the login screen forever and giving up

okay everyone gotta dial it back a bit talking like the Myst property is dead because one nice pitch didn't get off the ground. Cyan has been steadily making new games and remakes, they put together that demo in FOUR MONTHS? and literally said not to worry, they're working on more Myst things

The curse of the correct consensus. Most folk form a similar opinion for valid real reasons, others come in late and interpret it as hive mentality, and mistake a broad spread of voices for intensity, sets their expectations too low, reactions bounce back and forth forever in a wave form.

Marxism is on the rise

Nintendogs was one of the first major catalysts to sell people on the concept of the DS, second highest selling title under NSMB, and they only ever tried capitalizing on it once with +Cats on 3DS, and besides some Smash cameos it has pretty much vanished

throughout the 90s I saw Myst be the motivating factor for adult normies who otherwise never touch a videogame to own a home computer for the first time

gives me major flashbacks to the menacing presence of Brad Dourif in Myst III: Exile. I know that was from a different team but I've always had a soft spot for it, so it would've been so amazing to get another game that follows in its footsteps in some way

Over a year ago, we built a prototype for a new Myst Universe game meant for publisher eyes only. This project is NOT in active development, but we're proud of the work the team did, and wanted to share it with you all. Presenting: Project Anglerfish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvNGt02yZNc

The worst thing a video game can do is give you a tutorial. It's domineering, boring, and patronizing. The only thing worse is if it DOESN'T give you a tutorial. That would be incomprehensible, frustrating, and presumptuous.

I casually tried to grab a copy of Splatoon Raiders yesterday but physical copies were literally sold out at every store in town
