@targetrasp  - I am tempted to do the same. We are on the fence... talked about it a bit more.  Just not sure if we are attending.  It also seems like they might be expected a smaller crowd this time around.  The amount of showings offered are reduced ... especially for a new movie coming out.

Back in the Wii days, Wii Sports was a massive deal that really sold tons of Nintendo Wii consoles.  Even my parents back in the day enjoyed playing Wii bowling... and it actually provided a lot of family fun for many families.

Honestly... I enjoyed Wii Sports as well. I haven't bought any of the more resent versions, but this is hitting my interest. I'll probably wait for it to go on sale.  This is a 4 player game in couch coop, but you can also play online with friends with the private rooms.

Are you looking forward to this game?  Thoughts... comments... post it up!

I'll watch it at home some way or another. I'm lukewarm on Marvel movies since phase four and it's soured the earlier releases as well. Not excited enough to go to a movie theater, will spend the couch time on it though.

I'm looking to revisit it as well.  I'm curious how well it will play and look.  Even Gamecube games didn't look as good on certain modern TVs and other systems.  They looked really good on older format TVs.  Hopefully it transitions well.  Chibi-Robo looked pretty good on the Switch 2 Gamecube player.

Has anyone gave this a shot?

Quote from: mastermario on September 14, 2026, 04:46:19 PMIt would take a lot for me to buy any game for $80. I'm waiting for those summer deals haha.
I am with you... I just cannot pull a trigger on an $80 game. Even with the mindset that we used to buy N64 games for a high price.  Speaking of sale... there is a Nintendo sale not that long ago. It might be still be on ... check the deals thread.

You know... there's 1 thing I miss.  The smell of the N64 game when you opened it.  It wasn't the same thing as a new can of tennis balls... but there was a fresh smell opening N64 games.

I'm a little torn as it could be fun checking it out in the theaters again.  I have really good memories from that before the pandemic.  There were a few things that really stuck out at that time too.  Would it be worth the few extra minutes?  I don't know.  honestly, I am a bit concerned they are going to ruin something ... Endgame was a great movie.  I don't think they need to change anything and going back to change a move is an interesting move. The ramifications could but huge, but I'm also intrigued to see what the changes are.

I don't know @retro junkie ... I am a bit torn lol

@targetrasp @Grindspine @mastermario @Mai Valentine @Kinikko @CreepinDeth @SpartanEvolved  - Are any of you going to see this movie?

My Daughter and I have been discussing this very thing for months. We have issues with Disney abruptly changing their mind about a movie then going back and making some changes so that they can connect a new idea and outcome. No long term planning, pitiful writers, or bad writing ideas? I have the original movie on DVD and we do not think it would be worth watching the movie in the theater paying for that extra few minutes or seconds. They could have just started Doom with something going on in the background while other events were taking place in Endgame. Oh, but why do I think that their writers would have that kind of creativity? It comes across as milking the fans for more money right before the release of Doom. Disney's bumbling is disturbing. Doom better be good or they have fumbled the ball big time. The expectation that they are creating with all this puts themselves in that type of position. Am I saying that they could be releasing a disaster in Doom? Their reputation precedes them, they have done it before. Fans are getting so hard to please.
