That is pretty good advice overall, thanks. (Be the bullet?)

Finally got my copy of Night Trap for the Switch, at my parents. It's......really bad.

THIS is what the ESRB was created for?

I'm playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. I managed to get a hold of it today. No spoilers, but the single player is quite meaty. I'm quite pleased with it so far! Edit - just stumbled on one stage I didn't know was going to be in it. It's simultaneously amazing, clever and exasperating all at the sam...

I have one major complaint about the game - and it's the same complaint I had about GTA V. I absolutely hate the evaluation system they have for missions now. It used to be pass/fail and that would be that. Now it's a series of subjective things you have to do to get a "gold" in the missio...

I picked up the Switch version in HK last week. It is ..... punishing. But I am pretty terrible at schmups overall.

Any tips?

I'm okay with them when they do something along the lines of the first Persona game re-released on PSP. They re-did the graphics. fixed the mistakes they made with characters (they changed the ethnicity of one of the characters to make it more "American" originally), re-translated the enti...

Thank you for the information, I'll give it a look!

Done by USB or SD card?

Very interested but I'm going to wait for the Western physical release. (Amazon says Nov. 30th...but Play Asia says Oct. 23rd?!)

I'm wondering if the updates will be included with it.

How easy is it to add games to the Snes?

I'm trying to finish the first Shenmue before I go to Tokyo for Halloween, so I can do the Shenmue tour while I'm there.

However I am also addicted to Persona Q which is a mix between a Megaten game and Etrian Odyssey.

I have fond memories of playing this on the Commodore 64, with its distinctly different soundtrack. I'm sure the difficulty will be talked about during the podcast and I always ended up quitting out of frustration. I never managed to finish it but I always loved the aesthetic and monster design.

I love the first one, like the second one, though I probably haven't played the second one since about 2004/5.

Haven't played Child of Light but now that you've made that comparison, I might try and track it down!

Grandia 1 and 2 ports have been announced for the Switch.

I am very excited.

If you're already shortlisting for next year, are you looking at doing another series again?

Is it going to become a staple to do all the games in one series every year?

Can I nominate the Shin Megami Tensei series?

I found for boss fights the Rush and Beast modes were way more effective that normal blue one. Alternating between the two as required served me well enough never to die towards the end of the game once. Beast (the yellow one) is quite useful in Kiwami, especially against Majima later in the game w...

Make sure you level up! The techniques will help you in the boss fights.

Use Rush for Shimano, he is a huge pain in the butt!
