Video Games

I lived through the GameCube era and it's kind of a classic, at least from my point of view.

GameCube forever!

Getting back to the classics with Super Mario Galaxy 2. God, I love the Wii.

Classics?... kids these days.

Sorry, but the entire Galaxy series basically made my childhood. And it is one of the best games ever made...

GameCube forever!

I can probably beat your butt in Double Dash. Just saying.

Did anyone on these boards buy the Switch, and if so, impressions??

Neither of which makes it a classic. It's 6 years old, released May 2010. To be a classic, something has to stand the test of time. Tetris is a classic. Nothing released this decade has had enough time to prove itself. If people are still playing Mario Galaxy 2 in 2040, maybe you'll have a point. Not now.

I've had one since launch. I love it - best console I have owned in a long time. Absolutely game changing.

Really? No issues on a console you got on launch day? I'm surprised.

I didnt want one at first, but after seeing reviews on youtube etc; been wanting one but sold out everywhere.

Finally got my hands on a Yooka-Laylee copy yesterday. It's enjoyable, but it does have a ton of glitches.

I'm absolutely loving the Switch. Such a great console.

Anyone here have a GameStop rewards card thingy?

If you do, grab yourself a free digital copy of Deformers (PS4 or Steam):

Enter your e-mail, and the code DEFORMERSGAME and pick a platform. Code gets sent to your e-mail. Enjoy!

Also, you can get two codes. So... if someone could share a PS4-code with me... appreciated!

Just to make sure, everyone's pre-ordering their Battlefront II copy, right?

Already own it.

Been playing Mario Kart 8 on the Switch. Nothing groundbreaking, but it has a ton of tracks and characters. Pretty fun game like the rest of them.

Seriously though, Battlefront II (the original) owns! Definitely one of my favorite games of all-time!

^^ I hope Nintendo dosen't make 1,000 units when they can make 1,000,000 units and give retailers onlly 1 each, then the scalpers sell them for hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars, and then Nintendo discontinue them after only being out for 6 months, making the scalpers sell them for even more

$60 and it dosent even have mario paint?

^Yeah Nintendo loves to undership their products. I always wonder how much revenue they lose from potential impulse buyers

The 20 games they've chosen are pretty well a greatest hits collection. I'm not sure I would have chosen any different ones. So glad Super Ghouls and Ghosts made the cut--that thing was infuriating fun. I made it all the way to Level 8 with a friend once. Never beat it, but few ever did.

Yeah all the classics are included except Chrono Trigger, which is completely puzzling as it's probably the highest rated game on the console and of all time. I also wish Killer Instinct and Donkey Country 2 were included. Oh well can't have everything.

Yes, but Secret of Mana and Final Fantasy III/VI are, and they're respectively better.

Zelda Breath of the Wild is absolutely amazing, it's literally the breath (no pun) of fresh air the series needed. Started to get a little stagnant around Twilight Princess.

It's been over a month since E3 and I'm still freaking out about the fact that Metroid Prime 4 is happening. The hype is real.
