That was awesome that they stuffed a game like VF5 into a Yakuza game. I kind of hope that since Yakuza has been getting more attention that Yakuza 6 might rekindle interest in Virtua Fighter. I'd love to see VF6 made for the current generation of consoles.
Tales, unfortunately, has never been about the graphics. I liked the character designs myself, but I can't blame people for wanting more out of the PS4. Its graphics engine doesn't look much different from that of Xillia.
One thing that 2017 has going for it is the Switch itself. It's an amazing little system and it's been one of Nintendo's biggest successes, especially given all of the skepticism that came from the failure of the Wii U. Breath of the Wild has a real shot at unseating Ocarina of Time as the best-selling Zelda of all time, and Super Mario Odyssey has been huge as well. I think that Breath of the Wild will prove to be a game-changer for the Zelda series and one that is talked about for a long time. In 1998, even as Ocarina of Time and MGS were battling it out at Christmastime, Sega was pulling the plug on the Saturn, and in doing it the way they did, they alienated a lot of support for the Dreamcast. :(
Looks like you've either been playing a Capcom Classics Collection or that plug-in game console that has Capcom games built into it.
I've spent my month playing BotW, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and this super-hard indie platformer, Celeste.
I play Millipede more than Centipede myself. They're both great classics.
Mario Bros. actually isn't a Virtual Console title. Nintendo hasn't done Virtual Console for Switch yet thought they are working on it. Rumor has it that the Switch VC will have Gamecube and Wii games in addition to NES, SNES, and N64. I'm especially excited about the prospect of Gamecube games on Switch.
Mario Bros. was actually ported as part of Hamster's Arcade Archives series. Hamster is bringing most of Nintendo's 80s arcade catalog to Switch. They've already released Mario Bros. and VS. Super Mario Bros, and are going to release the arcade versions of Balloon Fight, Ice Climbers, Punch-Out!!, and a lot of others. Unfortunately, no Donkey Kong or DK Junior due to the lawsuit between Nintendo and Ikegami Co, Ltd, and no Popeye due to the licensing issues. :(
I got both of the Atari Classics for the PS4. I usually play Centipede, Millipede, or Yars' Revenge on those. Lately I've been playing the arcade version of Mario Bros. on Switch a lot.
My wife wanted to get Disney Infinity for her nieces and nephews back when it was a thing. I was a little shocked when Disney pulled the plug, but these days the only games as toys I really see that much of anymore are Amiibos and Lego Dimensions. I have picked up a few Amiibos because I'm a huge Nintendo fan. I guess Disney only wants to do mobile games and farm the rest out to EA (yuck), who basically treat console games like mobile games these days.
Edith Finch sounds like a Western take on the Japanese visual novel style of game.
I hate how medical insurance can't keep its stories straight.
Uhhhh... what's a snow day?
And yes, I was saying that even back when I lived in Oklahoma and Maryland. Snow days don't really exist in my line of work.
So if we're Bad Dudes, are we going to go save President Donnie, since President Ronnie has been out of office for almost 30 years?
I enjoy reading BaD blogs, but as for me, I'm doing well if I can crank out a blog a month.
