@BLUEVOODU i saw this on Disney plus. I was surprised. I really enjoyed it. It is already on DVD and I plan on purchasing it.

They're definitely waiting for hardware that provides a significant bump in performance.


Quote from: BLUEVOODU on November 17, 2025, 05:01:26 PMI am not trying to judge... but the new controller looks ... like not the greatest design?  Reminds me of the old Atari Jaguar Controller LOL.

I don't know if you can ever make a controller that is aesthetically pleasing when you have to place multiple trackpads and two thumbsticks. The most you can hope for is it's ergonomic. That's what I personally care about for sure. Not to mention, the TMR sticks.


Quote from: BLUEVOODU on November 17, 2025, 05:01:26 PMWaiting on a lot of prices right now... I wonder what they're going to charge.  Is there anything anyone is pumped for?

The Steam Machine for sure. I'm going to guess $550 for the SM only and $600 with a controller.

@Mai Valentine  --> Did you ever go back to Pokemon Blue, Red, and Yellow at any point?

I think my son is going to get this game at some point.  This looks like a great addition to the Pokemon Series.  I've had my fair share of complaints of the last couple releases (long story)... but I also dig the series a lot and have many things that I like as well.  I think it was mostly the odd looking "motorcycle" that was off-putting.  I know... picky.

Linus covered the new hardware in depth.

@targetrasp -- are you not as much of a fan of the tactics genre?    @SpartanEvolved  was also mentioning how hard it was in terms of difficulty. 

I haven't opened mine yet... of course... ???

100% agree @CreepinDeth ... the 4k details are pretty cool, IMO.   The detailed comparison between the Mario 3D All Stars version and this Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 release is well done.   I was a little surprised and the changes did make a visual difference.

@Kinikko --> With these enhancements... is this more on your radar?

@Mai Valentine -- is this something that is on your list?  Or is it a "eh, maybe" game?

@targetrasp -- you know... I thought for sure this was a big hit from the gaming golden years.  Maybe I am mistaken, but I thought this was a highly sought after game from the way back.  Maybe it doesn't track as well these days?

Quote from: retro junkie on November 08, 2025, 11:42:49 AMOut of the 46 games that I have for the console, Lunar is stealing the thunder from Animal Crossing. Even though I am slowly going through that game because I stop to grind for a while. I hate just barely beating bosses with half of my team crushed.
This game is peaking my interest. What keeps me away from Lunar is your grind comments LOL... and that it's keeping you away from Animal Crossing --> @retro junkie


@targetrasp --> What about Advanced Wars?  ;D

@targetrasp  - I believe that was Metroid Prime Remastered.  However, you should be able to get that now... I recently picked it up.  If remember right, it was very hard to get at 1st.... or at least I have that memory. 

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond shouldn't have that problem (knock on wood).  I'm definitely interested... but probably not day 1 and hoping for maybe a discount next year (doubt that will happen either lol)

Quote from: targetrasp on November 01, 2025, 04:08:01 PMwaiting for it to hit Disney +. Marvel's first family has never been done well outside of comics, The jessica alba movies were OK, the other one was OK, I'm sure this one will be OK too. Tired of going to movies for OK.

I hear you @targetrasp - Hopefully you find this one good... I thought it was pretty good.  Others seemed to enjoy it as well, and hopefully you do as well.  Post up once you check it!  I'm a bit surprised no one else caught this:
