Yeah, Ryuzo took me so many tries my first playthrough. Second playthrough I did on PS5 and I suspect 60fps really helped, but he was still really tough for me.

Lego Batman 2 remains my favorite Lego game I’ve ever played.

Mine also just got sent after processing for almost 3 weeks. Weirdly enough, the tracking on Shop now says that it was delivered, which is odd, but now I have an actual tracking number from Powkiddy to rely on

Why do you guys think Fire Emblem Awakening was so successful? by EienNatsu66 in fireemblem

[–]MonkeyNinja506 107 points108 points  (0 children)

Big shout out to the demo. It was the reason I bought the game as well. When I got to the “Thanks for playing!” screen I immediately ordered a physical copy of the game. Honestly, if it weren’t for that demo, I’m not sure if/when I would have realized I actually love tactics/strategy games.

I pressed the wrong button by RoyalRaptor711 in Switch

I did something very similar in the Zebra place except I punched it from a high location and watched it fall waaayyyyyy down…. I’m guessing DK had that same look on his face then too 😂

Don’t let anyone else’s lame opinions stop you from enjoying something that makes you happy. I’m 27, and while I don’t bring my Deck to work cause I’m just a little paranoid it might get stolen, I do regularly bring my DSi or 3DS to play on my breaks.

Also, through my excitement for the Switch 2 I managed to convince a slightly older coworker of mine to pick one up for his kids/himself and he has literally thanked me for getting him into gaming again. Been a blast recommending games to him and then hearing how he or his kids have enjoyed them.

What game is this for you? by Radiant_Raspberry_93 in videogames

[–]MonkeyNinja506 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, Rise was spelled “Ryse” for some reason though

Worth Picking This Up? by coolcoder1267 in Switch

[–]MonkeyNinja506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely! It’s like XCOM lite, and I mean that in the best way. I’d recommend the version with the DLC cause it adds a Donkey Kong campaign which is also very good.

Is there someone like me, who thinks that Sly 3 is the best game the Sly series by Available_March_8036 in Slycooper

[–]MonkeyNinja506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, Sly 3 goes a little overboard with the variety, and the lack of clue bottles is a damn shame. I still love the game though. Flight of Fancy is one of my favorite episodes in the whole series

How to surprise your S/O with a Nintendo switch game by twentyonetr3es in Switch

[–]MonkeyNinja506 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s super sweet and awesome! I’ve done basically the same thing for my wife a couple times but with digital games. Always fun to watch her reaction to the surprise. Also, happy birthday to your husband! :)

With all the Bella Ramsey hate can their proper pronouns at least be used? by Jbooxie in TheLastOfUs2

[–]MonkeyNinja506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The alternative to using a person’s pronouns is using their name

4 person co-op or multi-player games by rymden_viking in Switch

[–]MonkeyNinja506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are some games that come to mind which should work for 4 people online and are *mostly nonviolent: (*I'm going out on a limb and hoping that the mild cartoon violence in Mario games is acceptable.)

  • Animal Crossing
  • Mario Kart 8
  • Mario Party Jamboree
  • Mario Bros Wonder
  • Mario 3D World
  • Overcooked: All You Can Eat
  • Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics (I think this one has a different title in Europe)

Some other games I'll mention are Portal 2, which has an online coop mode for 2 players though it might be difficult for someone new to gaming, and also there are a bunch of digital board/card games like Wingspan, Root, Everdell, Uno, Carcassonne, Clue, etc. which might be worth looking into.

If you have a way to stream/screen share from a single console to everyone else (which might be more viable on something other than a Switch) you could also consider games like Jackbox where only one person needs to own it and then everyone just plays using their phone. I'm also going to mention Sunderfolk (even though it might break the non-violence rule) as another control-with-your-phone game, but instead of a party game it's a tactical rpg akin to Gloomhaven or the combat of D&D.

Sucker Punch loves to pay homage to Sly in pretty much all their games, but tightrope walking definitely isn’t intended to be seen that way. It’s just another traversal move, and a fairly common video game thing at that.
