@CCC:

I never had a problem with GC, but yeah everyone loves the pointer Wii controls. Lock-on still snaps you onto the enemy, but then you have a limited degree of free-aim, which MP3 was basically built around (enemies/bosses with very small/specific weakpoints).

Best QoL change, imo, was flicking wiimote to jump in morphball form. …Still worth mastering the tricky bomb jump timing on GC version, though, especially for all that amazing sequence-breaking (which you should absolutely try! It's even possible to get the plasma beam before Thardus!)

Yeah, i saw some people do those crazy sequence breaks. looks like fun.
But first i'm finishing the other 2 Prime games. Would be interesting to see how they stack up to the 1st game.

At the moment most of time goes to Enter the Gungeon. Easy to get into, hard to master.
Rogue-likes normally aren't my thing and honestly normally can't be bother to "Git Gud".
But something about that game, keeps me coming back. Definitely recommended.

@The:

Now I have gotten all of the feats for all three of the shovel knight campaigns! Non of them were really that bad, with the only wall that I hit was at the very end doing the Specter Knight NG+ run. Having the depleting health bar wasn't a problem for the most part, with a few bosses taking a few tries, but Black Knight in the tower of fate and the Enchantress fight were brutal for me. Both together took me an hour to beat.

Awesome game. After finishing the game as Specter Knight recently. I can honestly say this is probably my favorite 2d Platformer of all-time. So much fun!
Can't wait for the Kings Knight DLC.

After so many year i finally deceided to start up Metroid Prime again. Never got that far in the past. But now i sat down and completed it with all items.
Both gameplay and graphics have aged quite well. Probably one of the best looking games of that generation.
Controls (Gamecube version) haven't aged that well. My hand kept cramping up. Kept transforming into the morph ball will jumping.
You also need to see an enemy before you lock unto them. Stay still, press the aim button,targer and select the correct weapon/visor - Feels like way more of a hassle then most modern games.
Some bosses also had a bit of a "cheap" feel.. Especially the Rock golem.
Still had alot of fun. And i'll probably dive into Prime 2 rather sooner than later.

I heard the Wii version seems to have better controls. Can anyone confirm?

Done with Ac Origins. Awesome game by the way.
More rpg elements really fit the AC gameplay. Had lots of fun.

Current finishing up Persona 5.
Also amazing, game oozes style. Storywise not as good as 3 and 4.
But gameplay-wise blows the other 2 out of the water.

Also did some Firewathch. But it wasn't really for me.
Not much of a walking simulator fan.
I did hear great things about What remains of Edith Finch.
Is that recommend for someone who generally doesn't like those (Walking sim) games?

@NateRich:

The game was a lot of fun and had a very doable platinum trophy. I remember it not being too monotonous.

Yeah, kind of liked how they handled the platinum. Not many weird requirements and missable thing. Except the floating Discoball trophy.

Also decided to take the plunge into AC - Origins. Mostly because i absolutely love the setting.

Some impressions:
I'm at around 4 hours in, and i'm liking it so far. Combat isn't perfect, but way more better the other AC games.
The Dark Souls influence is clearly noticable. But it's not nearly as hard (playing on normal difficulty) and unfortunately not as polished.
Still not bad perse. Exploration is fun, and there are plenty of interesting areas to explore.
The Lack of an animus Database entries is a HUGE Omission. I want to read up on characters and locations, but unfortunatly none to be found in this game.
Virtual tourism is a big part for me in these games.

Got the platinum in Ratchet and Clank (ps4).
It did feel kinda short and platforming isn't it strong point. And i was secretly hoping for a melee weapon.
Humor didn't seem that strong in this one either.
But still loads of fun to be had.

Couldn't get into the Galaxy games for some reason. I have yet to beat the 2nd Galaxy game.
Odyssey sure looks like alot of fun. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
But my backlog is way to huge + no Switch (yet), must resist..

Cleared Shantae - Half Genie Hero.
Liked the graphical style. Gameplay does feel a bit dumbed down compared to the other Shantae games.

@RuNa:

I'm almost finished with A Hat in Time

100% satisfied, glad I backed this game. I was concerned (before it came out) how fast Yooka-Laylee came out and that this game appeared much shorter.

I'll let anyone know who is considering getting this game: It is much better than Yooka-Laylee. The scenarios are all very unique and, despite how they advertised it, it isn't really a collect-a-thon in the sense it was made out to be. This game is more akin to Sly Cooper and Super Mario Sunshine than the Rareware n64 games.

I'm about to go to bed, so I won't really type more, but while I think Yooka-Laylee might only be fun to people nostalgically, I think that A Hat in Time is more fun and would be more enjoyable to people who did not play those N64 games.

Yep, definitely going up my "to buy" list.

Got some more time recently to finish up some games.

Completed Castlevania - Lament of Innocence (ps2) - All items etc.
Platforming isn't that good. Crappy ps2 camera. Decent combat. Amazing soundtrack, some great tunes in there.

Completed Horizon - Zero Dawn (Platinum)
Absolutely loved the combat in this one. Looks absolutely stunning, and i don't care for graphics normally.
Storywise, heavy intrigued by the Lore. Can't wait to play the DLC and discover more about this world.
Guerilla created a great base here. Hope they expand upon this by adding more weapons, improved melee and more rideable mounts. (Glinthawk please)

Completed Zelda - BotW (All Memories, Armors, Upgrades, build a certain village etc.)
I have stranged mixed feeling about this. It sure had it's amazing moments ..but it didn't blow me away like i'd expected.
Loved climbing everything. Alot of great places to explore. So many way to interact with the world.
But my main problem lies with the way this game rewards my explorations.
Everything weapon you find seems less special because of the durability system. It seems pointless in way.
Korok seeds become useless after a while, so don't they don't serve any real purpose anymore.
The only thing left is the extra heart/stamina containers.
I just wish there were more things to find. Like a cool gadget/Magic Spell/Ocarina Song or something, Like in the past Zelda games.
Speaking of which, where did the awesome classic dungeons go?
And what happened to the amazing Soundtrack those games used to have.
Maybe my expectations were just to hight, with all the "Best Game of all Time" reactions i read on the internet
Windwaker and Ocarina are probably still my favorite Zelda games.

@KaizokuFan22:

tried the Citizens of Earth demo on PS4…its not a bad game..its quite fun for a RPG
theres about 40 People to recruit in the full game..and there is quite a bit of real world references in the game, plus its turn based.

I played and have almost beaten the complete game.. Not really worth it IMO.
It tries to be a Suikoden/Earthbound hybrid, but seems to forget what makes those games awesome.
It's also quite buggy. Had the game freeze and crash many times.

Damn, to late again for adding Little Big Adventure.

I'll guess vote for Lufia, since i've never got the chance to beat it.

Can i nominate Little Big Adventure 1 and/or Shining Force 2?

Can somebody help me trade evolve my Graveler?

Anyone able to help me trade evolve my shiny Dusclops into a shiny Dusknoir?

No problem. If anyone is interested in a free shiny Shuppet, tell me. Just trade me something crappy in return.

Hit me up with a trade invite Yamata. I'll help you evolve 'em.

Ok great! I'm online now
Edit: Thnx alot!

Can someone help me evolve my (shiny) Shelmet? By trading with a Karrablast.

LMAO,
[h=1]Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Coming to PS Vita[/h]A day after the Fan translation xD

Zelda + TES ? Two of my favorite series ever?
Sign me up for a WiiU, when the game has been released.

I'm willing to bet that most people, that care about who WON E3.
Already made up their minds, before E3 even started. See > Fanboys.

Anyways, so far i'm not really that impressed… I guess Bloodborne and that Platinum Dragon game look nice.
But nothing yet that blows my mind. Mostly sequels (ugh!).. I hope Nintendo is able to show something mindblowing.

The Full translation of FF - Type 0 has finally been released!
EDIT: LMAO,
Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Coming to PS Vita

A day after the Fan translation xD

For the metroid fans, Looks nice. PS4 and Vita.

Also looks great. To bad, it's not for the Vita

Not really a card game. more of a basic rpg with incredible artwork.

It's a free to play game, but not in a bad way.
The game doesn't really force you into buying anything
You can use it to speed things up, but it really doesn't matter all that much.

Any people playing Destiny of Spirits on the Vita…?
I'm way more addicted to it, than i should be. I absolutely love the artwork.

Wake me up when we get to ancient Egypt.

Thanks for the shinies Prism, unfortunately i don't have many competitive shinies.
So i'm not willing to part with them, sorry.

Also saw you have a shiny noibat, do you know someone with a Noibat safari?
I'd love to get a shiny Noibat myself.

Looks like my shiny rate has decreased.. it took over 2000 eggs to get a shiny Tepig (Adamant natured, 5iv's, Egg moves!)

@Deviant_Mugen:

Quit making everyone else look bad, Chrissie!

Also, I'm interested, but what would you want for it?

She traded it with me.
But if you have any shiny (that i don't have) for it in return, i'll happily part with it.

Also, just tell me when you want you're Luxio back Chrissie.

My Recent shiny GETS:
-Shiny Pidgey (Now Golden Pidgeot) Helix be praised!
-Got a lvl1, 6IV LEGIT(It was bred in Kalos) Shiny Barbouch, with awesome egg moves from the GTS.
-Got a Shiny Lickilicky in a trade named "Miley Cyrus".

Weirdest thing happened to me. Just encountered a Ponyta with red flames, instead of the normal ones with blue flames. I think my game is glitched.

3 boxes full of shinies.
Nobody interested in that pink wailmer?
I can also offer a shiny Rampardos and Bidoof.

Anyone interested in a shiny (pink) wailmer or shiny Drifloon?

Cheers Prismeru.
Thanks for the awesome Vivilion and Skarmory.

@Gatekeeper:

Okay, I've got everything on your list except for the Regice, still waiting on a GTS trade for that one. For the stone trades, do you have any of these: HA fennekin, HA charmander, or HA bulbasaur? If not, just any non-Kalos native pokemon will do.
Yeah, I got that ditto to go through too. I transferred a huge amount of pokecheck mons, the only one that didn't go through was a kyogre (my suspicions were right on) but I got another to go through and I still have my own kyogres too.
Well then, do you have extra lucky eggs? If you don't, I'll just give you the kadabra with the condition that you show me its evolved form (You'll have to specify whether or not you want the kadabra entry). For the bibarel, if you still want it, I'll just have you owe me a favor in the future, if that's alright with you.
Bad news, they are both decent potential pokemons. The piloswine is bashful and the mandibuzz is adamant.

–- Update From New Post Merge ---

I know firsthand how troublesome this is but can you camp out for specific natures and IVs with that app?

Nope, they are the exact same pokes that were handed out during their own respective event.
Keldeo is Modest, Arceus is Carefull etc.
So for all intents and purposes they are legit.

@zachri:

Hot damn son.
Darkrai and Meloetta look so neat
Only shinies I got are a shiny Gyrados and a shiny Eevee (male)
And obv the shiny Staryu (Morty) that Chrissie gave me, but I don't intend to trade that at all.

Shiny Eevee for Darkrai/Meleotta?

–- Update From New Post Merge ---

@AfroLuffy:

Yeah it is.

Ok 16 char

Well, ok then ^^
I'll get you one.

Do i have you in my friendlist?
what's you in game name?

@AfroLuffy:

Looking for Arceus, Manaphy, Groudon and Jirachi. How about for my Lv. 100 shiny Hitmonchan?

A Legit Arceus is the only one i can make for you.
Chrissie has alot Jirachi's, if you need one.

The Hitmonchan is legit?

@AfroLuffy:

Really? Okay, I'm in.

What do you want?
And which shiny do you offer?

I can make infinite legit event Arceus, Dakrai, Keldeo, Meleotta and deoxys.
A friend of mine has an app, that creates the exact same Event legendaries that were given to people during certain pokémon events.
It did cost him money to get it, though.
So if anyone wants one, do tell.
I'll be taking a shiny for it in return

Yeah, sure!
My shiny dex is coming along nicely.

@Kisoto:

Wow that's tempting. And yet I don't think I can part with any of my purple shinies ever and the rest are promised to the awesome people helping me get them! XD

Would you be open to just showing me one for a Dex entry in exchange for shiny entry/entries? I'll show you all I've got if you're interested!

Sure.
Do i have you in my Friendslist?
If not, my FC is in my sign.

@zachri:

I'll trade a shiny sunkern/sunflora~?

Done, 3 Arceus left.

Got all the event legendaries now. I managed to get my hand on 4 event Arceus, which i don't need. Anyone willing to trade a shiny for one of them? (no chain fishing ones) Also no shiny legendaries, because they're probably not legit.

@Prismeru:

Does anyone have the regi trio so they can show me? D; I'm trying to fill my legendaries.

Woot, Shiny Marowak!

Thank you Lady Gaiyae

Great work my son.

@Prismeru:

Oh, Saint Gaiyae Patron of Shinies who let her holy daughter Chrissie came to earth and grace us with RNG luck. Let me find a nice harvest of shinies today. Amen.

I need alot of Mareep sacrifices to please the RNG gods. Give them to me.

Also shiny Honedge and Eevee get.

Caught a shiny Eevee, which makes it the 50th Shiny for me.

I should add a Shiny Oddish to my list.
Sitting at 49 shinies.

Now should i evolve it into a shiny Bellosom or Vileplume.

xD
You guys weren't kidding.
3th encounter in Crissie's Safari;
Shiny Jigglypuffy!

@Prismeru:

Waching all episodes of Spartacus with the missus, while grinding Safari's - See how to the shiny count goes up.

Also get Unown on GTS, when someone asks a normal pokemon for it. Trade it for a legendary bird.
Trade that bird for for a shiny. Profit.

Might as well make a list of my shinies;
1.Politoed
2.Poliwrath
3.Relicanth
4.Gyarados
5.Alomomola
6.Basculin
7.Magikarp
8.Omastar

Ok, i guess that makes it almost 50.

@Prismeru:

I think Chrissie has even more shinies than Gaiyae and Gaiyae just blinked and the game colored the damn pokemón

Sitting at around 40 shinies.
But it looks like my luck ran out.
2000 eggs hatched, still no shiny Honedge.

Maybe interesting to note:

Rommel directly translates to Junk or Mess in the Dutch language.

Oda has used Dutch names before in the past, so it may be related.
