[Shalabi]

Kinda disappointed in how badly Trials runs on the switch

Damn, my finger has been hovering over the trigger for buying this on 3DS a couple of times, glad I waited now. It's a sequal-ish to Legend of Legacy which was a Bravely Default-style update of the Saga games, and apparently Alliance Alive makes the gameplay a lot funner. I played a good few hours of LoL and it was beauuuutiful and I wish I had more time to play it but I could tell it would take real elbow grease to beat it and fell off

Also Turok 1 and 2 are coming to the Switch.

FOR $20 EACH!

[bluemovers]

Kid Icarus and Startropics coming to NSO next week

[gambra]

FOR $20 EACH!

lol. The prices of some Switch games are ridiculious. The RE4 and RE 1 & 0 HD releases are £30 each.

it seriously drives me crazy

i hate that i'm gonna buy re4 again regardless of the price, because it's switch

There’s no way the Turok games have aged well

[Tar Pit]

If they bundled 1 and 2 for $20, I’d consider it. They messed up by not fixing up Rage Wars and making it online compatible.

they have, actually

the first game less so but turok 2 is still fantastic. the third game is too and i'm hoping nightdive brings it to pc soon

if it's not common knowledge it's worth pointing out that many of the people who worked on turok and turok 2 went on to form retro studios and work on metroid prime. there's a lot of proto-metroid prime in turok and turok 2. turok 2 especially

[chairkicker]

turok 2's got remarkable AI for an n64 game

Finally grabbed Dark Souls yesterday after accepting that I'm probably not going to finish Hollow Knight.

Hope you're using a pro controller

[Dead_Wizard]

Where tf is Slay the Spire

[kirito]

does turok 2 have splitscreen multiplayer

I beat the game playing entirely handheld, dunno why a pro-controller would be key for DS?

[grammatron]

I played for a bit yesterday and have struggled with the controls a bit. For some reason I can't seem to keep in mind which button is the attack button. I don't like using the triggers to attack. But I'm also dumb about changing the configuration, so I guess I'll just keep at it until it sticks in my brain.

i keep expecting this to be released as the "one more thing" nintendo direct game

[kirito]

only buttons you have to worry about in the game are b, x, R3 and R1

[Esteban]

Man that switch tax is real lol

Turok 2 slays

i didn't dig that at first, but the R/L triggers for R/L-hand weapon/shield just clicked at some point, and now hell i guess i love it (ps3 version but same principle, i assume)

After initial adjustment (making B accept and A go back in a menu is the opposite of every nintendo game ever) I found the controls to be pretty intuitive, so i'd say just stick with the original mapping.

[Seamus]

fuck the nintendo tax!

[grammatron]

The B and A thing is mindboggling for sure.

[grammatron]

And I can’t seem to change it. Those options are greyed out.

[tgk]

Yeah you'll just get used to it. Its the best game I've played in years

[Rainbow Battle Kid]

i think they wer just trying to match the ps3 layout where X is often the GO button, so that corresponds to B on the nintendo stuff

[chairkicker]

does turok 2 have splitscreen multiplayer

yes

[chairkicker]

dark souls is set up the way it is so you can block and attack while simultaneously controlling the third person camera. it's a good thing and you'll get used to it very quickly

[kirito]

i'm asking about this port
