With the superhero attrition going on (downey, johansson, evans, et. al.), I think these D+ series are being used to introduce and/or flesh out new characters more than progress the storyline. Most of them seem like filler, all be it good filler. Same with Star Wars.

I also feel like your casual MCU viewer may not geek out on every character spin off imaginable so unveiling major events in a d+ series might turn some away. Instead keep pushing out bangers for the silver screen all the while converting some of those casual viewers into full blown geeks, who in turn subscribe to d+.

Happy New Year everybody!

Sweet, I can't wait to see what you do

Lol... My Christmas bonus was 50% more than in 2019 (owner felt bad for nixing incentives, bonuses, etc. in 2020) so I shared with the family...

Collectively we got, 2 ps5s, 1 series x, 1 series s, an oled switch, and a ton of games. I was worried i'd not get a chance to play any of it BUT I passed my Corona test and have to sit the next week or so out!

Sorry I'm late, hope it was great!

I've never played one all the way through. I usually pick them up when they're discounted, pretty heavily and play for a bit but never really finish. I'm sure I'll do something similar here.

ditto @CreepinDeth , waiting for 4k bluray - hopefully there's a steelbook flavor

its on the nintendo switch online service.....

Its pretty great. I read a lot of the what if comics in the early 90's and these really bring me back. They've all been pretty great so far.

I'm warming up to it now...

still forgot about it!

For the most part, my steam library is mostly games best played on mouse and keyboard. I do have a few that could be played portably but it's a small amount.

It'd be great if it turns out a ton of games get developed for the thing specifically but that's not usually the PC way. I'm sure i'll end up with one eventually, but not soon. it looks like scalpers are taking advantage of the shortage and making these difficult to get.

Short memories... now that's google's fault. Who needs to retain knowledge anymore

I got puzzle chronicles, dungeons and dragons: chronicles of mystara, castlevania anniversary collection, anniversary collection arcade classics, wizard of legend, valheim, and contra anniversary collection.

Most was just because the old school compilations were 5 bucks but Valheim was one that I've heard so many people talk about I had to try it. I played for almost an hour trying to figure it out and just haven't got there yet. I'm also stubborn and trying to use a controller on a game that has little business being controlled with a controller. It seems fun with friends.

I did add Bust-A-Move, Yoshi's Island, and Bomberman 2 to my SNES library. They came from me though!

I think a first party Nintendo game under 20 anymore is a fairy tale. At least the switch seems to be cranking the titles out, maybe they'll be at least findable in the future

Thanks, I got the gift of entering my 40's and going to bed before 9... April covid still had Asheville pretty shut down

It's a truly awesome game. I took it to the beach with me last year and almost finished it in the week I was on vacation.

I saw Fire Emblem and Luigi's Mansion for that as well, if i didn't already have all three of those games I would have bought them.

@retro junkie I'd never heard of that game until it started showing up on youtubers hidden gems videos. Judging by name and case alone it just looks like another wii shovelware title. The critics weren't kind either, it shows 60 on metacritic. Despite all that I see it in hidden gems videos and every person that I've heard take the time to play it likes it. If I ever get a chance to pick it up I will, just maybe not for the 20 bucks it sells for on eBay.

I missed a dialogue option early in mass effect that'd require another play through for me to platinum so I moved on to ME2. I didn't get the "use x power 25 times ones" either, not sure if it has to be shephard that does it or one of the team (although if it was one of the team surely i would have gotten some of those trophies after a 35 hour playthrough). I may revisit 1 later. I'm not using a guide or walk through so I was bound to miss something, no real reason to start using a guide or turn back now. I'll have to settle for partially complete.

@BLUEVOODU I don't know about all that, but the first episode was good.

Mass Effect 1 down, still have a few more trophies to get to platinum it, then on to Mass Effect 2. I must say, really digging the legendary edition. I'd imagine if anyone played through when these games came out, then played through again when the trilogy was released, the legendary edition may be too soon, otherwise it's the right amount of time between initial release and second play-through.

I'm looking for a secluded beach somewhere but vacation prices are climbing and the incentive portion of my salary isn't back yet so a staycation may be in order. I'm in such a liberal area and even the majority of the people here have doffed the masks. I'm caught up on my shots and am starting to get confident we're out of the woods but I'd feel better with a little more time for research, data collection etc. I also have one kid that's too young to get the vaccine so that weighs in as well. With all of that said, no concrete plans yet but looking to do something outside the normal.

saving it for Friday after work

and when did April become a Ninja?

I love these games in a couch coop setting. playing online just isn't the same. I've got some of the smash TV clones on STEAM and I've tried over and over again to rehash that experience and I've just not been able to.

may be something i check out while waiting on the polymega...

Spent another 5 hours in Mass Effect between last night and this morning. Still taking my sweet time with it. It may be a contender for a platinum trophy run.

I just cant get around that many games! A lot of the platforms had less than 1000 games total. I guess it does add up, especially with arcade as well.. I'm super curious now.

I see these on amazon advertising 40-50 thousand games included but never says what games... Is it worth it or is there 9400 mahjong clones, each difficulty counting as whole new game, shovel ware that'd make the wii jealous... I just can't see 50,000 games on a clone console... we're talking a fraction of a penny per game... my brain hurts...

Nintendo and sharp teamed up at least twice that I'm aware of, once for the game television and once for the sharp famicom twin. Well, i think last year they were working together to assemble switches but those weren't new consoles...
