I'd be sad if they stopped supporting the Wii U. I love the GamePad and I think the system is the culmination of a lot of other work they've been doing with hardware for years. Hopefully they can get some games on the market and move some more systems. There's a lot of potential there if they could get their act together.
Also, Pikmin 3 is so damn good.
This sounds a whole lot like Crackdown, which makes me really interested in giving it a go at some point.
Yes! Beach Spikers is incredible.
It's definitely not a bad game, just a bit too slow for me. I can see others really enjoying it, so I'd say give it a go.
Speaking of shmups - I really liked Liberation Maiden, which I know you weren't crazy about. Different strokes, I suppose.
Alright, good man! Come to think of it, I may have actually beaten Adventure before Zelda as well, but I honestly can't remember. I always loved that one too, mostly because it made me think of Zelda.
The Legend of Zelda on the NES, for sure. Man, I love that game.
Syracuse! I can do Syracuse. It's probably an hour and a half ride to get there, but it seems like it'll probably be worth it.
Syracuse does seem like a weird place to take it to though...
Forget realism! I'll take the over-the-top stuff any day.
Except Dark Souls. Dark Souls needs to stay exactly the way it is.
That similarity to the Capcom DnD games is no coincidence. George Kamitani actually worked on both of them, so it's no surprise that Dragon's Crown bears similarities. Also, I love this game. Can't wait to play some more after completely finishing Pikmin 3.
I really enjoyed the combat system of this one. It has all the same tropes of the rest of the MegaTen games, but it does so without the turn-based combat. The random encounter rate is a bit too high for what it is, but if you can get used to that, there's some great fun to be had.
I still can't believe how expensive this game has gotten over time. I picked up my copy around 5 years ago for $3 or $4 in the GameStop bargain bin, complete. I actually purchased 2 more copies to gift to others because it was so cheap.
