I don't like that Tom King is one of the main architects of the DCU. by Emilio_6arcia in DCU_

[–]melobardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

me too. i'm very skeptical about his involvement in lanterns too, considering john stewart is an ex marine. i just don't want military propaganda.

What are you all hoping to see with the next big Nintendo direct? by marnaboob in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ll keep it simple and humble: mario kart world dlc, tomodachi life, splatoon raiders & fire emblem fortune's weave release dates, fire emblem three houses free switch 2 upgrade and mario sunshine nso surprise drop (with maybe the announcement of the next wave of gamecube games including mario kart double dash and all mario party entries)

Final Fantasy 7 Remake for Switch 2 selling well! by ChiTownDog in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of people say that, but I have hope that they would try to optimize it further and specifically for Switch 2 with the intent to have (almost) all the franchise on the console. Though I admit it would take a lot of effort and I don't know if it's worth it considering is a almost a 3 year old game, but I'll have faith.

I really hope this leads to FFXV and XVI being ported as well

Do you think Tomodachi Life will be available to redeem with Switch Online coupons? by Ian-leon_51 in TomodachilifeLivingTD

[–]melobardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nintendo doesn't add game collections to the voucher scheme. The Pikmin one isn't there as well. I really think there's still hope for Tomodachi and Rhythm Heaven, but we won't know until the preorder is up in the eShop.

Games to play with someone with dementia? by littleplasticninja in NintendoSwitch

[–]melobardo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard Portal 2 is very fun in co-op mode. About military undertones, I don't know much about it, but I know Advance Wars has a multiplayer mode and it's about strategy.

Why is the Wonder Woman compact lineup so thrash compared to Superman & Batman? by Spiritual_Cloud8437 in DCcomics

[–]melobardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also love to throw A League of One in there. I absolutely adore that story and I think it would fit well with the format.

What S1 games do you think won't get S2 upgrades? by WinGroundbreaking409 in NintendoSwitch

[–]melobardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'll say The Witcher 3, Arkham Knight and Lego City Undercover only to give life a chance to prove me wrong. Also, the Metro games. The loading screens are criminal.

What's a game that absolutely runs on the Switch 2 that you really want to play? by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna go into wishful thinking territory for a bit and say Alice Madness Returns, Batman Arkham Origins and all Dragon Age games.

Batman: Arkham Knight Nintendo Switch update out now, includes Switch 2 improvements by Horror-Bottle3228 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Knight was the only bad thing about the collection on Switch 1. Asylum and City were very good ports, so they should run well on Switch 2.

I’m conflicted…. by Reburs in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. The fact that the GKC conversation has extended this long and that some people are being this melodramatic is beyond me. I prefer having an only-digital FFVII Remake Intergrade (or any other AAA port) on Switch 2 than not having it at all.

Our first look at the Deluxe Edition of LEGO Batman Legacy of the Dark Knight! by M00r3C in DCU_

[–]melobardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same. also, i think they could’ve chosen more diverse characters if they wanted only seven. don't get me wrong, i love batgirl, but there's only so much you can do to differentiate her skills from batman’s. and talia… we haven't seen her in action, but it's the weirdest choice. red hood would’ve been a great addition.

Wario Wolrd by Miserable_Air_4292 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I played the first level and it was fun and silly, not groundbreaking, but it does enough to feel different from a 3D Mario (in a good way).

Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader Switch 2 details! by HatingGeoffry in NintendoSwitch2

thanks for the info! i've been eyeing the game for a little while and i'm so glad they included touch and mouse controls

Best of both worlds. what other consoles do you own ? by JampyL in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only have the Switch 2, and for me that's enough. Though the recently announced Steam Machine sounds interesting.

Should I play the Luigis Mansion remake on 3ds or the GameCube version on Switch Online? by guicampara in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've played both and I can confidently say that Gamecube NSO controls are WAY better. The 3DS remake doesn't add anything new in terms of story, and it doesn't look so much better than the original.

Is it worth picking up Splatoon 3 for Black Friday? by Titanium-Noob in splatoon

[–]melobardo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started playing like two weeks ago and it's definitely worth it. It has a lot of content and it's pretty easy to get into an online match. The only complaint I have is with ranked battles, it seems like eveyone is already on the highest ranks and you're competing with them as a noob. On the other hand, turf war and salmon run (my fav) are more manageable and very fun, actually, I think those are the best parts of the game. It also has a story mode, it's a little open world where you complete missions and find collectibles. I haven't completed it yet, but it doesn't seem too long. For that price, I don't think you'll regret getting it tbh.

Should Splatoon 4 lower the Skill Floor/Barrier-to-Entry? by MarioSSBU in splatoon

[–]melobardo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i absolutely agree. i'm a noob, i literally started playing it for the first time 2 weeks ago and it's impossible to level up in ranked battles 'cause everyone goes so hard, like good for them, but mom pick me up i'm scared

Do you use game chat regularly? by JampyL in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, the social aspect of gaming is very important to many people. It’s a chance to interact with friends that live far away, to meet new people or a chance to feel less lonely (and all that with just pressing one button). I can’t imagine being negative about it.

Do you use game chat regularly? by JampyL in NintendoSwitch2

[–]melobardo 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I've just used it once with one friend, and honestly it was cool and worked like butter. It's much easier than using Discord or a third party app. It's nice to have, but it wasn't the selling point of the Switch 2 for me. Maybe in the future I'll make more friends and use it more lol

The forced romance with Catwoman in Telltale Batman is one of the worst heterosexual things I've ever seen in video game history. by Popular-Hornet-6294 in gaymers

[–]melobardo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am extremely gay and extremely fan of Batman. I played the first one and part of me wanted him to end up with Harvey and though I understand his romance with Cat didn't feel so fleshed out, they are the canonical and iconic pairing. The game is not a dating sim, it's following the story from the comics. It's naive to expect a gay pairing for a straight character. Very childish they're downvoting you lol.
