I think it’s so strange that I was apart of a generation that was very into the 3DS in 2012 when we were all around college age, but then there is a whole generation of people who were into the 3DS as little kids in 2018 when their parents were buying them the cheaper Nintendo console and used games.

@immortallix 10 ай бұрын

Are you kidding me? Samus Returns was very mediocre by Metroid standards, not to mention all the Metroid-likes that popped up in its absence. It wasn't even as good as AM2R. Their level design was even poorer in Dread since they didn't have an existing one they had to adhere to. The only thing they improved was the action elements of Metroid, and that's only if you're preferential to Metroid being an action platformer more than anything else. The art direction in both games pale to the 2D ones, and both of em hardly have any memorable music.

@lordofdoosh Nobody expected it to be as good as AM2R. That was a 10-year project made by some incredibly passionate fans. Money was not the incentive, but love and art for its own sake. Nothing can compare to that. If Samus Returns tried to copy AM2R, it would just be worse by default. Going in a different, more action-focused route was the right call because it made the game stand out more. And for what it's worth, the atmosphere and exploration in Samus Returns was still great, even if the level design could use some work. I think Dread actually improved on basically everything except music. The combat was faster and crunchier, the visuals are obviously better (no match for 2D sprites, but about as good as you could get with the 2.5D approach), and the level design feels more meticulously planned to accommodate both 100% runs and speedruns. Not perfect, but about as perfect as it could reasonably be without just copying Super Metroid.

Ever Oasis was rotting on a nearby used game store's shelf for several months and every time I went there I considered picking it up purely because the art on the cover is gorgeous, I finally bit the bullet and bought it without knowing anything about the game eventually and it is really good, I was so happy to see there were Ever Oasis spirits in Smash Ultimate because it's so rare to see the game even acknowledged by people Also I remember being so pissed off when everyone wanted the 3DS to perish when the Switch launched because I simply didn't have 300 bucks to blow on a new console and so I was very happy to get more 3DS content. So there was an install base on the 3DS: poor kids! I get the frustration tho.

It was probably a great thing for a lot of low level employees.

Pulling life support? Dude, I play on my 3DS so much I had to replace the battery because it was dying earlier than intended. I'm still playing my 3DS. Considering getting a battery replacement for my 2DS as well. I'll admit that once the Bank support goes down, I'll play it *less* since a lot of my playtime is Pokemon and if I can't migrate anything forward I'll mostly be messing around with randomizers and just having fun with the games in a more basic and limited capacity, but even then I've got a ton of games on the system I still enjoy playing, not least of which is Dragon Ball Fusions. As well as all of the DS (and GBA games I can play on it since it's softmodded). I don't hate the Switch Pokemon games, I thought Scarlet/Violet were pretty good, but I wouldn't even have to think about it if you asked me if I'd sacrifice all of the Switch era Pokemon games for the pre-Switch Pokemon games. Yes, a hundred times yes. They are all infinitely better.

So characters, the settings (ordinary town locations everywhere unlike Pokémon), the music, very easy battling, it's cute that you earn pennies at a time from battles, even the bug collecting you can do at trees is charming. Very down-to-earth for most of it. I'd more so say that if you like Attack of the Friday Monsters or Boku no Natsuyasumi games, and like the idea of Pokémon but couldn't get into it because of the gameplay, you'd probably like Yo-Kai Watch.

Rainbow Rocket was just lame, a great concept completely squandered of its potential by being like an hour long and you don't even get to visit any of the worlds where the evil teams won so that you can see how it is there.

@Roboshi2007 10 ай бұрын

even if you had the money, for the first couple of years there was a shortage of systems because they sold too well. So Nintendo tried making games for anyone who couldn't get hold of a switch. Sure they probably went about a year too long on that but still they were thinking of giving those on smaller budgets an option.

35:47 this is that comment. But in all seriousness yo-Kai watch is really fun, it’s obviously not for everyone but it’s really well designed and disregarding it as ‘all the people who liked it played it when they were 7’ like you could say that about almost every Nintendo series. Cough Cough Kirby Also I have a physical copy of yo-Kai watch 3 and I’m still shocked at that fact

The New 2DS XL definetly felt like a Switch Lite before the actual Switch Lite. Toad Treasure Tracker, Fire Emblem Warriors and Sushi Strikers released on both platforms at the same time. And it got many Nintendo games even after the switch's launch.

I'll gladly be "that guy" in the comments coming to defend Yokai Watch. And Antdude will be surprised to know I was not 7 when playing. I'm an OLD Pokemon fan, and I was getting sick of the repetitiveness the franchise was already starting to suffer from. So I jumped on with Yokai Watch 3, cuz I researched how the western release is a special version with all the content from it's different versions; so much content I couldn't even 100% it cuz I'd gotten my fill before hitting that point. I love alot of the designs and the switch ups they throw at you to keep gameplay fresh. I think the mindset you need to actually enjoy these titles is that IT IS NOT pretending to be Pokemon, the story plays out like an episodic anime, and they make battles play like micro-managing minigames as the monsters do the fighting for you. I've played alot of different monster collecting games over the years and I'd say Yokai Watch is a standout. But maybe my entire opinion is invalid cuz I found TemTem uninteresting.

Pokemon has a deeper battle system and breeding mechanics, but as a series, Yokai Watch does world building so much better. The environments are well designed and truly capture the spirit of discovery like looking for yokai in trees and underneath cars. The fishing and insect collecting are rewarding and feel like Animal Crossing. There are sidequests that flesh out the world and the yokai personalities.Then Yokai Watch 3 has an entire mode separate from the story where it's a dungeon crawler and you can play as almost every single yokai in the game. Yokai that have a 3d model with full animations because Level 5 figured out how to do that on the 3ds while GameFreak can barely do it on the Switch, lol. In conclusion, I'm the guy who actually likes Yokai Watch and it bums me out we never got 4 localized. I can only hope Level 5's upcoming games do well enough that it finally happens.

I am totally scott in this scenario. Ive always held off buying brand new games and systems. My 3DS could entertain me until I die (especially now that i finally put CFW on it). I remember going to gamestop and browsing through their super light stock of DS & 3DS games and then purchasing one and the gamestop guy trying to heavily sell me on upgrading to a switch and I was just like nahhh im good i love my 3DS. Not a graphics snob at all and i mostly play strategy games. Finally got a switch late 2020 and started catching up on everything i missed.

I'll be honest, the reason *_I_* got into Yo-kai Watch stems from that fateful day when I realized that mainline Pokémon games were going downhill but also that I needed *_something_* to hyperfixate on before November 2019 would come and I'd finally have the opportunity to buy my own Nintendo Switch and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. 36:30 Funny you should say that, Ant - Scarlet/Violet got two of my friends *_out of_* Pokémon (at least the mainline games) as it made them more privy to the likelihood that The Pokémon Company cares more about merchandise sales than about the quality of the games, and I myself am *_still_* waiting for the day it becomes stable, like a kid in the back of the car during a road trip repeatedly asking, "Are we there yet?" And the answer is no, Scarlet/Violet is *_not_* there yet, and it might *_never_* be there ever, so my chances of buying and subsequently playing it are significantly lower than with any mainline Pokémon game prior. If anything, the absolute state of Scarlet/Violet got me to try out *_more_* monster-taming games that aren't Pokémon, and so should You, The Person Reading This Comment Right Now.

@timedyne 10 ай бұрын

i agree so much with this comment. i started playing yokai watch because i was also feeling upset with the way pokemon was going. yokai watch is just so much better handled than pokemon imo, and i have been a pokemon enjoyer for my entire life and only picked up a yokai watch game last year. its so sad that all the other yokai watch games are always just assumed to be like yokai watch 1 when that is easily the worst game in the series. theres a reason why yokai watch 3 is so high in price. yes, it was a limited release, but its also probably the best game on the whole system. i also feel like yokai watch encapsulates that childishness of being 10-13 better than pokemon ever has. anyone seeing this reply that is disappointed in the state of pokemon right now, please give yokai watch a shot. yokai watch 2: psychic specters is the best version of ykw2 but fleshy souls and bony spirits may be a bit more accessible at the moment, and if you can get your hands on it (or are willing to sail the high seas for it) yokai watch 3 is probably the best game in the whole series.
