DS Lite was super easy to carry any way you liked. PSP Go & DS Lite were the last systems compact and light enough to not even think about carrying around. I actually miss the GBA Micro and wish we'd get something like that outside of Chinese stuff.
Why? If it's designed well it shouldn't be an issue, everybody loved DS,
It would be a Switch that has a detachable top screen that could work like a Wii U tablet. In portable it can attach and become a DS.
They were, not going to say I didn't put it in my pocket, just that the backpack exists for a reason. You can put your cables and games in there and make sure it doesn't get lost.
Because it breaks home-play. Looking up and down at a Wii U gamepad was a dogshit play experience and the type of thing that absolutely should not be brought back under any circumstance. And yeah, they could "just not use it" for games that don't work well with it (all of them) but then they're going to be making us pay 50 dollars for an extra hunk of plastic just like the original XBO did.
When down properly it's fine. I've played multiplayer games where the person with the gamepad only looks at his screen, and most first party games generally treat the second screen as a menu that you can quickly glance at. Affordable Space Adventures I think did it pretty well.
For every game marginally improved by it there's a Star Fox 0 that is ruined by it. No thanks.
Miyamoto has been put out to pasture and just works on movies and theme parks and stuff now likely because of Star Fox Zero. That ain't happening again.
Star Ocean 2 Second Story R is pretty much a different experience of the game with the sheer amount of QoL features added (and the new art portraits are pretty good too) so it's quite understandable.
There is a global release for September 2024 in any case (maybe with a surprise PC port like it happened with the first World Brothers), I'm just quite impatient when it comes to EDF.
I mean, the FPS was the least of this game's problem, but ok.
No there is not. I have to assume though that's what's happening to the game. It was my first time hooking up anything older than the Wii to it. Speaking of which the Wii is hooked up and running fine.
I want to add that after i wrote this post that night I rehooked up the 64 to the LG, popped in Smash Bros. That game ran fine. No dropping out. No black screens. So it looks like that just KI can't handle the TV. Must be the age of the carts?? Not sure.
Depends on how big the second screen is. If the Switch doesn't slide open more then 75% it'll be pretty sturdy
Sad, but true. Not sure it's enough to make me want to actually play the game again.
Where were you from late 2004 to spring 2017
Not playing handhelds. Bear in mind, my complaint is specifically that this would gimp on-tv play based on my experience with trying to use both screens on a Wii U- a totally unfun experience.
The cost will still be reasonable, Nintendo usually has the cheaper console and has since Wii (unsure about early). As long as they don't ruin games with it (I'm sure Star Fox Zero was a lesson) then this only enhances the portable mode imo.
I keep hearing this rumor time and again, would you guys mind elaborating? I know Zero bombed harder than the Enola Gay over Hiroshima, but for Miyamoto of all people to be sidelined over it is almost too much to believe.
The story goes that all throughout development people in the press and Platinum Games were telling him the control scheme wasn't working. People who worked at Platinum at the time apparently have said they told him standard controls could be easily implemented as an option while retaining the controls he wanted as the default, but Miyamoto kept doubling down that the controls would grow on people. The game came out and was absolutely panned and bombed hard even for a Wii U game, selling under a million units.
