I seem to recall a phrase with regard to how Nintendo make games. Is it "walled garden"? That is, the game is like a garden where nintendo put in stuff that can be enjoyed such as running, jumping, and in this case smashing and breaking. And make sure that those gaming mechanics are as fluent and enjoyable to perform by the gamer (if I may be so bold as to use that phrase) as possible. The story is added at the end but is not the main thing.

In that context, Nintendo seem to have put in lots of enjoyable things to do in this game. For me who often disregard the plot and just run around inside a Zelda game, or a Xenoblade game (or for that matter Witcher 3), and just do whatever that strikes my fancy at the time, yep. this game should have a lot for me to just interact with and give me a fun time. Must just buy that Switch 2 first..

Younger generation of Nintendo has been aiming to make story more of a focus, as have various devs since majoras mask and mario galaxy

A game has more views than the lastest Sop? That's a low bar right there

It wouldn't sale if it was donkey Kong and had all those same mechanics.

Avowed is amazing. Give it a shot. I'm sure it'll be better than Ghost of Sushi 2 later this year.

You're talking to a robot.

Just read the reason for the ban. Fucking brutal.


If occasionally shilling for your console of choice was a banable offense, you would be on the same chopping block (and so would I and 80% of this forum). None of those users are are drowning the forum in pages and pages of disingenuous console war spam the way that many of those who have caught bans did.

Brutal but right on the money.. outside of being a massive sony shill the guy was extremely condescending posting info like he is talking from a desk right beside Hulst and trying to do big brain analysis when he's just a gamer nerd like all of us. If you are from some company or has some official info, post the receips and them you can make "informative posts" .. if not, you are posting opinions or guesses just like the rest of us.

Despite being banned, Giga is the talk of the town in every Nintendo thread. Dude is eternal!

I watched this tonight and came away just blown away. This is the best looking Nintendo game since the 64 era. Like the most happy I've been watching gameplay and reminded me of the joy I had playing Mario 64 when I was a kid.

It also reminded me how fucking retarded people are that a shitter basic bitch game like Astro bot got the praise or gotys it did.

Like how can you even put shit bot in the same league as this!? M

Fuck I hope I get a switch 2 before this comes out. I NEED this game.

Sounds like you were a bit sore about this whole thing huh?

Yes I was but not for the reason you think.

I was sore because the initial comparison was silly. Obviously a Direct for a popular IP would perform better than a generic state of play/showcase.

Oh and just so we're clear Donkey Kong looks a million times more fun than GoY.
