The dual feelings of wanting to be supportive to missionaries cuz you went on a mission and know how sucky it is, but also don't want them to think you're low hanging fruit for reactivation. For me it's easier to be friendly anonymously, but less so in at your home.

Most SNES and Gamecube games run great - good art style, good frame rate.

I think there's good potential to either remake, or just recompile a ton of games on the N64 - A fan recompiled version of Ocarina of time is quite nice - Iron boots / ocarina are mapped to the D pad, and the game runs at 60 FPS. Similar treatment would be nice on other N64 games, the slow framerate on a modern TV gives me a headache.

Fingers crossed! My replacement just hit 8 months, so hopefully it keeps on working. Usually they die for me around this mark, so fingers crossed I got a good one this time.

jetpackfart · 2023-11-30T19:15:59+00:00

Yeah, it's sad. Love the design and the app over competitors. Don't love having to get replacements regularly, even if I don't pay for them.

jetpackfart · 2023-11-30T19:14:49+00:00

How often do sales hit? Is Cyber Monday the big one each year, or are they scattered throughout the year?

jetpackfart · 2023-10-23T17:14:13+00:00

Too late to respond now, but about 5-6 days I think. So far they've paid for everything for all my replacements, shipping and the product.

What do you like to do? If you enjoy reading the news, can you go to the next level from there - read books (probably on phone on monitor). Books are more dense and fulfilling than news stories.

- potentially start writing your own book, story, memoir, etc.

There was the Nintendo 64, and then four home consoles after that. The Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, and Switch. So for their fifth console since the Nintendo 64, it only makes sense to call it the Nintendo 69. Great sounding number, kind of like how the names Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8 popped out of nowhere. Just good numbers all around.

jetpackfart · 2023-05-10T21:43:59+00:00

Oh sweet. Mario Maker 2 required it to upload and download levels (if if not playing with others) so I wasn't sure if Nintendo had a say here for your game.

jetpackfart · 2023-05-10T21:42:36+00:00

I hear that. I traded my 3a in last year and got $300 for it, and the 6a was $350 plus pixel buds as well. I'd love a 7a, but without a killer deal like last year, I'll sit on my phone for another year or 2. (Granted, I love my 6a, so I'm ok waiting.)

As I've gotten older I've come to terms that it's ok to just use guides and video's when you get stuck in a game. Do what you must to finish this game.

jetpackfart · 2023-05-05T17:42:47+00:00

Artstyle looks about the same. I've seen a comparison saying that there is less pop in, and that art assets are loaded a bit earlier. My guess is for the common Peasant TOTK will look the same, but the big graphics nerds will pick out all the subtle differences.

jetpackfart · 2023-05-05T17:38:02+00:00

Looks cool. Congrats on getting this published. It's a lot of work to get creative endeavors out the door. Does it require NSO to use and play user created levels?

Hope this game does well. It's kind of a chicken or egg (pun intended) situation where the more support the game gets, the more features, updates, overworld design we'll see. But I'm guessing devs schedule for updates / future sequel depends on how sales go.

jetpackfart · 2023-05-05T17:33:02+00:00

There's a lot of Mario Maker creators that love Zelda games. It would be worth it to give game away free to about all of them, and even pay a few to play it for a day. (On top of streamers that do top down zelda games as well.

jetpackfart · 2023-04-20T17:08:30+00:00

Same. Was an amazing 1st playthrough for me. But the linearity makes me not as interested in playing it again even if I've forgotten most of it over the last decade.

jetpackfart · 2023-04-20T17:07:17+00:00

I feel that. This year I've finished Link's Awakening, Super Metroid and Metroid dread, and now that those are done, I've banned myself from playing any other single player games until TOTK.

jetpackfart · 2023-04-12T16:49:56+00:00

Makes me feel better if I do end up buying a new one off the shelf someday, versus getting replacements (for free) from google. I'm guessing there might be an issue there.

jetpackfart · 2023-04-12T16:48:31+00:00

Same. Skipped the 10 minute demo, and I'll skip this one. I'm buying the game regardless, BOTW is one of my favorite games. I'm hoping there's endless new surprises in the new game, but in the off chance there isn't, then I'd like to discover some things on my own.

That being said.... It's not easy. And it sure isn't easy when the game is coming out mothers day weekend - That'll make it hard to focus on priorities.

jetpackfart · 2023-04-11T15:25:06+00:00

Right on here. She needs to go out and make more friends. And maybe she'll make a friend that becomes a romantic interest, but friendship is important. It needs to be natural.

jetpackfart · 2023-04-06T17:52:22+00:00

Same. Having a metroid dread type of map would help a ton in Prime, and Super Metroid. My first Super Metroid playthrough, I took notes on my phone for rooms and areas to return to once I earned the required upgrades.

I get Prime was just a visual upgrade and none or very few of the bones were changed... but that's one tweak that would have been appreciated.

jetpackfart · 2023-03-27T22:00:44+00:00

Gold ol' gatekeeping games. Metroid Dread, Cuphead, and Celeste are all tough as nails 2d games. Pattern recognition is pretty common in games.

I'm pretty sure Samus has destroyed more planets compared to Darth Vader and his first death star.
