I'm willing to up my Patreon pledge if I can get a certain soccer game review by the end of the month...

If you're really serious, I suppose I can make it happen. I thought you were just kidding around about wanting it.

Look, some people want to watch Tom Brady score a touchdown. Some people want to see Taylor Swift sing about snakes. Me? I want my #1 soccer information source to review a soccer game so that the universe is in balance.

Well okay then, I guess I have to give the people what they want. Before you ask, I'll be reviewing FIFA 18 for Switch when it comes out next month as well, which I'm going to go ahead and guess right now will be the better of the two games.

Boom! With a whole four hours to spare, even. You can go ahead and up your pledge to make up for me having to spend real money on that mess.

In a mere four months, the money will be made back by me upping my pledge. The numbers don't lie!

Man, there's a comment/joke I've had in my mind with the recent discussion going on in the "Rate your last Movie" thread but I feel it is on the edge of acceptable forum guidelines. Plus, as a mod I'm supposed to be setting some kind of good example or something so I've resisted thus far.

However, a private message may be a different story. So if you want to find out what is, pm me and I'll tell you and then you can boo or cheer me and I'll find out if I'm in poor taste or not. (Also, laughter is not guaranteed. You may find the comment lame.)

It's an interesting thread. It's also got this username and comment synergy:

I'm looking forward to playing number 2.


While Insanolord appears to be posting while drunk. Look at him slurring his words:

I'm all digital and I love it; thouhh at the rate I buy games I'm going to have to shell out big bucks foran even bigger SD card before too long. I'm already down to 150 GB free on my 200 GB card. f

I created this thread to hear everyone's thoughts regardless of whether one bought a Switch yet, not to convince/shame those who haven't.
Have you used the Internet before? This isn't how it works, you're supposed to berate everyone, especially people with a different opinion. I went into that topic expecting to be shamed, and I left disappointed.

I haven't purchased a 3DS game since November 2015 (if my Amazon orders history is to be believed).
I didn't want to go off topic again in that thread, but I find this surprising. Has there really been nothing on 3DS that has interested you since 2015? Granted, if you don't like RPGs, I guess you had a lot less options...

I was surprised too. I was at work and I was trying to remember the last 3DS game I bought before checking Amazon. When i got home, I was able to confirm. The last 3DS game I bought was Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D.

I've mostly been playing Super Smash Bros. For 3DS. I haven't bought a Pokémon game since Blue. My brother unintentionally saving over my game when I was on Victory Road basically ruined Pokémon for me.

Well it was pouring rain and I felt like crap so I skipped the lines. The Ferris wheel's blinking lights looked like the eyes of a heartless machine glaring at me from the fog. Everywhere bobbed dots of pink cotton candy clutched by shivering children held tight by parents grumbling at the wasted weekend.

I cringe every time I see this reasoning. It’s classic Nintendo apologism. Suggesting people should avoid or ignore things developers put into their games is asinine.

I accept that few games are as expertly designed as Super Metroid. Samus Returns is decidedly worse than its canonical sequel in almost every way, and that’s okay. It’s still good. However, Nintendo and MercurySteam don’t get a pass for designing extremely linear levels and adding warp points in the latest entry of a series known for exploration. Navigating a foreign space and slowly building up an arsenal so everything doesn’t kill you was the entire point. If this is how they wanted to design the game, fine. A Metroid purist won’t get exactly what they want which is also fine.

Something can be different and good at the same time. However, it’s the developers’ responsibility to meet the player’s expectations, not the player’s responsibility to change or lower their expectations because the developers made a worse thing so I won’t sanction the idea that one should alter the way they play a game because developers walked back on certain things that made a series what it is.
Oh give me a break, this is the kind of toxic attitude that gives gamers the negative sterotypes they deserveDoes the fact that other people are able to enjoy a game better now really offend you?  Do you lose your **** like this when the Super Guide or Golden Leaf appears in a modern Mario game because people were able to skip hard sections without getting good at them now?  The game can still be played just like the previous installments, just now people who aren't as good as you have help to enjoy them better.
I went to post more thoughts on Samus Returns and read this post again. I called his suggestion asinine, but I wrote two paragraphs to explain. His response still seemed a little extreme. I’ve gushed about the game numerous times in that thread. Samus Returns is good; the level design could be better. Was I being unfair?

I wouldn't worry about it, mate. I saw that exchange yesterday and was a bit surprised myself at Luigi Dude's response. Aside from maybe the use of "asinine," I felt your post was fair and respectful.

I'm beginning to wonder if Luigi Dude is a reverse Ian Sane...
