Pretty much have only played Binding of Isaac and Mario Kart 8 for the last.....well since Binding of Isaac came out lol.

Switch is like my dream console, just a...big handheld. When 3DS was losing a little bit of steam due to the mobile gaming market, and especially when the Vita failed to gain much momentum right from the get-go, I thought we had seen the last of the dedicated handheld system. The Switch is basically the answer to my prayers, and almost exactly what I'd want out of a handheld that I would design myself. I'm definitely going to put a lot of hours into it   I'd say, for me, Switch is definitely one of the greatest things I've seen or used.  A lot of people shit on it because it's not as powerful as a PS4.  Who cares?  Graphics aren't everything.  And I'm taking my damn home console with me on the go.  Last night I was laying in bed with my wife playing Mario Kart.  Or I can also sit on the couch with handheld mode while her or my daughter watch something of their choice on the tv.  We all used to have to take turns, now there is no need.  I can play what I want when I want.  Don't get the hate for the Switch at all. ]]> Now Playing http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=137017 2017-05-01T12:15:13 -05.00 NostalgicMachine 561 Now Playing http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=137017 2017-05-01T12:11:18 -05.00 NostalgicMachine 561
Maybe it's because I've played so many Layton games, but I'm kind of done with the walking around town talking to people and tapping everything bits. I just want a linear story that takes me through all the puzzles at this point. I'm just too lazy for the adventure game part, I play this game for the puzzles primarily. ]]> Now Playing http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=137017 2017-05-01T09:59:30 -05.00 NostalgicMachine 561 Originally posted by: Quaze

While Volkmire's had those laser gates that you had to memorize the pattern of, here you have Sea-horse gates, but instead of memorizing the patterns, you have to memorize the sonar sound cues which tell you what position the opening is going to be in, all the while you being persued by a nasty Squid, (instead of Clinger Winger's hypno orb)

Oh man, nostalgia city. My brother and I used to play that game for hours and hours on end. Totally the influence that sparked Ecco the Dolphin.
 


I used to play Dolphin all the time! Sadly, I no longer have a copy. I'm sure I can get one cheap, but my Atari is away, so I'd be buying it just to have it at this point. Great game though, loved it growing up! ]]> Now Playing http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=137017 2017-05-01T09:49:45 -05.00 NostalgicMachine 561 Originally posted by: G-Type
