Kind of sad they cut this concept from Wonder, but I guess it wouldn't really fit what they were going for. They should really flesh this out as a full fledged game and make it available to purchase.
New SW Battlefront collection and Contra Galuga getting mixed reviews. Not too surprising. Funny enough last I checked the Switch version of Contra had slightly better reviews than the PS5 version. For Battlefront many of the complaints seem to center around online play of which I have little interest in. We'll see if they clean them up and I'll probably get both when on sale.
Anyone get either?

Started Mario RPG with my 6 yr old tonight. Was really happy to see he was enjoying it and asking questions. Trying to get him off Minecraft.
Haven't played since release, pretty fun but super simple.

Is it because Minecraft is addictive or you just want him to try something else?

The latter. He gets limited screen time (weekends) and he always wants to play Minecraft. Yet prior to discovering he was super into everything Sonic and Mario.

Super Mario Maker has been beaten. That level I posted about last week, well, it was the last unbeaten level for a reason. The creator of it finally came out and admitted he used a cheat tool when he had to beat the level in order to upload it. That level has sat on Nintendo's servers since 2017 unbeaten and finally the guy felt guilty and decided to admit it cannot be beaten legitimately.

Playing Pokémon Arceus at my kid's request. I've tried a few pokemon games before, but nothing seemed interesting enough to play more than a couple hours. After about 3 hours I'm actually enjoying Arceus so far. Stalking the animals adds a new element that I really enjoy, as with exploring the mostly open world.

I wonder if that means that it's actually impossible to beat legitimately or just really REALLY difficult.

Why do pro controllers always die after being idle for just a few days? I have 4 and they're always dead unless they're always charged.

I don't think mine die out in as quickly as a few days, but I don't think I've ever gone more than 2 weeks without using mine. I do notice that Pro Controller seems to recharge slower than any of my other controllers though.

I didn't want to make a new thread for this, but I saw this debate on Facebook so I figured I'd ask here. Where do you guys draw the line at what is considered "retro"? What was said was something like SNES was 15 years old and considered "retro" by 2006 when the Wii had released. But in 2024 the Wii turns 18 and not many consider it "retro" yet.

I don't get bent out of shape over the term. In the past I considered more than 2 generations "retro", so 360, PS3, Wii would now be retro. There is also an aspect of inflated worth among collectors that I don't consider too much. When a gen bottoms out, then start to rebound some people start to throw the retro out. Others are about age in influence/importance. 3+ gens in my non-influential opinion.

I've recently learned that what I thought was a complete collection of Nintendo Tetris games was missing two games: Super Bombliss (SFC) and Super Bombliss DX (GBC). While I have the U.S. version of Super Bombliss for Game Boy (Tetris Blast in the U.S.), I hadn't realized that there was a SFC and GBC version. I will soon rectify this oversight.

They are just variants, but dangit, it has the word "Tetris" right there on the cart in small print!

Corn Kidz 64 is coming to the eShop on April 19 for $7. They were going for a N64-inspired 3D platformer and I'd say they nailed it. It's already out on Steam where it currently has 749 "overwhelmingly positive" reviews.

Pokemon Arceus... I see you can trade pokemon online or local. Is there a way to trade with my kid if he doesn't have an online profile with only one cart? My assumption is no.

Makes me think of that controller. Although I didn't have issues with the 'designed for aliens controller' back in the day, it is a bit of a strange design. I wonder if there are devs from then who talk about what was behind the design.
