I respect Star Fox Adventures for trying something completely different from the normal Star Fox gameplay, but sadly, it really doesn't work. Combat is dull, the pacing is all over the place, and the game never really develops most of its gameplay systems.

Aviary Attorney is exactly what it sounds like, Ace Attorney with birds (and also set during the French Revolution). It's humorous, well animated, and has an excellent soundtrack. I just wish the game was significantly longer (as it only took me around 5 hours to see all the game has to offer).

Pragmata is one of my new favorite games of all time, period. Genre-mash games are some of my favorite games in general, and Pragmata is one of the best examples of melding two genres (shooting and puzzle) that i've ever seen in this medium. And that's not even to mention the superb story and music.

Ninjago Dragons Rising Season 4 Part 2 is OFFICIALLY OUT NOW! A huge thank you to LEGO, the writers, voice actors, Wildbrain, and our team of composers here at Ninjago Music for bringing the second half of this incredible season to life! 🔥 #Ninjago #NinjagoDragonsRising

This is the only new NSO game that was added that I hadn't played yet It's fine, I think it's slightly better than the first R.C. Pro-Am (particularly in terms of the track design) but it didn't blow my mind.

96 Course races! Finally! I've been hoping they would add this for quite some time so you can play the entire game in sequence...but sadly I haven't picked up 8 Deluxe hardly at all since World came out.

[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe] Version 4.0.0 has been released. This update adds Switch 2 features (resolution bump, shorter loading, 5~8 people multiplayer, CameraPlay). It also increases player speed by 1 coin, adds 96 course VS Races, and removes offroad speed loss when using Boo.

Don't get your hopes up about this, as this is about as corporate of an answer that Izumi can possibly give, but it is at least nice to hear that there is interest within Capcom to revisit X at some point. As for how they'd be able to live up to 20+ years of expectations...beats me.

It's kinda genius if you think about it from the perspective of "What's something that Dr. Wily, an egomaniac, would love more than anything? Social media!" I could easily see this story being about Wily hijacking social media since we already know that the story involves a robot expo.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN MEGA MAN IS LIVESTREAMING THE WHOLE GAME

Half body piece of Twinkle Girl from Mega Man Dual Override! She's winking at the viewer, with stars in her hands. It's as if Twinkle Girl is handing them out to the viewer.

To reiterate something from my previous thread that I think is worth its own post too I recently graduated with a Master’s in Urban Planning. 2.5 years of study and hard work have paid off, and I’m so pleased that I have this degree. I look forward to seeing where it takes me. 🏙️ 🥹

Good morning from Moynihan Train Hall in New York, where I am preparing to board an Amtrak Train headed north…because it’s time for another travel thread! This time, I’m spending one night in Buffalo, NY 🇺🇸 and five nights in Toronto, ON 🇨🇦! 🧵

It's Suika Game except instead of gravity being normal, everything gravitates towards the center of a circle (and each other). It's simple, but changes the dynamic enough to give the game its own unique (and enjoyable) identity compared to the original Suika Game.

Tragically, this is by far the worst F-Zero game and possibly one of the worst racing games i've ever played. I understand that this game is unfinished (and it never originally released), but the controls are horrible and there's not even music for the racetracks!

Game #52: Zero Racers Developer/Publisher: Nintendo Release Year: 2026 Played On: Nintendo Switch (Virtual Boy - Nintendo Classics)

I can't believe i'm saying this about a Virtual Boy game, but D-Hopper is one of the best games i've played this year. A top-down platformer where you perceive depth through VR is such a novel idea that is used to excellent effect throughout the game.

Game #51: D-Hopper Developer/Publisher: Intelligent Systems/Nintendo Release Year: 2026 Played On: Nintendo Switch (Virtual Boy - Nintendo Classics)

The actual free upgrade pack only adds enhanced resolution and frame rate, which is good but unremarkable. What's more exciting is the sheer number of additional rulesets that have been added after the game's launch, such as Bonus Bricks, new minifigures, and additional rulesets.

The oft-forgotten sequel/spiritual successor to the legendary Okami is a beautiful and engaging adventure, despite the compromises this game had to make for the DS, and some of the issues it has.

Game #50: Okamiden Developer/Publisher: Mobile & Game Studio Inc./Capcom Release Year: 2011 Played On: Nintendo DS*

I’ve seen a lot of crazy turns in Mario Party/Mario Party-like games. Kai here in LEGO Party getting not just two Golden Bricks in one turn, but on CONSECUTIVE SPACES might be one of the craziest turns I’ve seen.

Dungeon crawling RPGs that are heavily text reliant are generally not my thing, but Sword of Hope II was an upgrade from the first game. Having a rotating party of characters made strategy crafting a lot more interesting (even if there were some spells that broke the game lol).

Game #49: The Sword of Hope II Developer/Publisher: Kemco Release Year: 1996 Played On: Game Boy*

Fortified Zone is an unremarkable shoot'em-up/maze game hybrid that fails to make any lasting impression beyond the fact that the individual levels are nonlinear. There are far worse ways to spend 30 minutes of your time, but even this game's successor, Operation: Logic Bomb, was more interesting.
