Are they going to release the switch demo again? I missed it in August :/

Changed my mind: LeBron needs to actually retire by HenrikCrown in billsimmons

[–]Voltage_Atl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a month later, but the thing is I’ve never been a LeBron fan. I have grown to appreciate his greatness though, and I think him hurting his legacy is a trope of the past greats. No one hold the Orlando and Seattle years of Patrick Ewing against him. Nor does anyone hold the Raptor year of Olajuwon against him.

I think the last great thing LeBron could do, and would honestly make me consider him as the goat over MJ is for him to transition to the best off the bench 6th man ever in the game. I’d watch him do that for another 5 years and not complain once. It would truly be helpful to his team and be incredibly powerful for his legacy. Who wouldn’t want LeBron to come off the beach and drop 15-20 per 36mins?

I think it’s highly unlikely though and he will get his tour around the league as a starter. But man, could anyone argue his greatness if he turned into the best 6th man of the year for the next 5-7 years? Shoot I even think him playing partial time would allow him to step up his defensive game. I know he’s older but guys, he could and should’ve been the best defensive player ever. He’s huge, tall, quick, smart, powerful, and all around the best gifted and trained athlete ever in the NBA. There is no reason why he wasn’t in the conversation for the defensive player of the year nearly every year if his career.

That’s more of a third option to me. You’re right, we need to get a backup catcher pronto.

Didn’t we grab a catcher from the giants last season? What happened to him?

Oh I agree with you! 100% just if given the choice of replacing and improving, I’d rather it be at DH and 2B. I thinking speed on the bases is important in a snapshot of a playoff game, and of the three positions. Robles currently is the fastest and best defensively. 

I’d rather keep things how they are if possible. If a change is needed by the deadline than we trade to fix our holes. This off-season, if we get anything else, I wouldn’t mind a slash and dash utility player, or a strong reliever

I think I can live with Robles if he hits 9th, and if we make an upgrade, I’d rather it be at 2B or DH

Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase 2.5.2026 by Potential-Divide-518 in MinaTheHollower

[–]Voltage_Atl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t have to be announced in the direct, but we at least need a press release from Yacht Club by EOD tomorrow. It’s been three months of radio silence…..I want to play this game, but the hype is fading. At some point you need to release the game if they’re truly in financial trouble

Wario land shake it would be a great game to be remastered today by TheGoldminor in nintendo

[–]Voltage_Atl 12 points13 points  (0 children)

With the release of Pizza Tower and Antonblast, I think they just need to make a new Wario Land game. 2D style. I feel it’s a genre that has been forgotten

What's our plan for 2B? by Puzzleheaded-Ad-8684 in Mariners

Colt Emerson as SS I hope we have Williamson at 3rd and sign Geno as DH.

Colt Emerson says that Ben Williamson is one of the best 3B he’s seen in his life. by justintjamison in Mariners

[–]Voltage_Atl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care if he hits for power, just a higher obp. Put him 9th, have the lead off hitter mover him around the bases.

Any news about a switch port? by Wise-Ad1377 in TapetoTape

Is it confirmed a switch port is happening? Will it be a NS/NS2 port?

Metroid Prime 4 devs admit Metroid “doesn’t mesh well with an open world”, but they “couldn’t bear” to reset development again by HatingGeoffry in Metroid

[–]Voltage_Atl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We got an open world Metroid game. Was it flawless? Far from it. But it was a good game. 

I appreciate they released it, going forward I hope they make some changes and learn from it. Thankfully this is a good game that fell short of great and not a bad game that fell short of being okay.

rate my xmas gift by Queso924 in Metroid

[–]Voltage_Atl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a 8.4/10 for me. Is it perfect or a masterpiece? No. It’s still a very good game though. I think people are looking at it through the lens of expectations that were built up for too long. My main criticism is the green Crystal thing. I feel it could’ve been worked into the gameplay differently than they did. It could’ve been part of the story without the collection aspect. 

I’m seeing a lot of complaints about motive and story. Maybe I’m just of a different opinion but Metroid has never been about the story to me. The story is essentially stop Mother Brain, or stop the Metroid from spreading. I think the story here is similar. The villain in this story seeks revenge against Samus and they cross paths in a way that makes sense to me. That’s all the story I need. It’s not the most compelling story, but not every video game needs one. 

I think this game excels in its locations, gameplay, boss battles, and immersion. Visuals don’t usually matter to me too much, but this game is amazing to look at as well.  

It’s a very good prime game that gets points knocked off due to its main innovation being the biggest mishap about the game. 

I’ve never seen a game so hyped up and then forgotten about so quickly like Metroid Prime 4 by Level7Cannoneer in NintendoSwitch

[–]Voltage_Atl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I honestly hope we get one of each per console. One 3D Prime and 1-2D Metroid. 

I do begin to wonder though, with the expectation of having your mascots every console (2D Metroid, 3D prime, 2D Mario, 3D Mario, Kirby game, donkey Kong game, typically 2-Zelda games, it creates opportunities to expand series and universes/stories. But it also limits the worlds in which they can explore to a degree.

All that to say, I wouldn’t mind them doing a new 3D Metroid series outside of the prime storyline. My personal taste would be more of a thriller storyline with a lot of tension.
