Huh. Just saw that Battle Princess Madelyn got an updated 'Royal' edition.
I reviewed the original release and while the game isn't terrible, the level-design was really bad. Hopefully the new edition addresses that issue.

worth pointing out that it's a separate game and not an update, level designs are apparently new according to the dev.
Slay the Spire is a much better game than OSFE. As usual, the clone cant touch the OG (Souls games, various Darkest Dungeon clones, Zelda clones what have you) even if its a good game in itself.
Not only is OSFE wildly unbalanced (officially I might add via a blog post on the steam forums from the dev) but it runs like shit on the Switch when it gets too hectic (hopefully to be patched). Its still good and I dont regret getting it, but I put 20 hours into it give or take with no intention of playing anymore until its patched, and I put like 100 into StS.

Well, it's still super impressive to me! ^^ We like to play a lot of platformers, too, but it takes some serious doing for us to 100% some of them. Uber-hardcore platformers like I have the sense of "The End is Night" as being is just too tough for me, though.
Re: Underhero
It's a travesty! It's got to be one of the most under-appreciated indies on the system. I hope it catches people's attention.

And, we beat the game today! (no spoilers)
What a freaking amazing and wonderful game. The final hour really blew away both of our expectations. My wife had done all the boss battles up to this point (we take turns playing) so I got to do the final boss battle. I'm not going to get into spoilers but I thought the narrative and plot were incredibly creative and surprising, the characters were compelling, the finale was suitably epic and inventive, and the dialogue was genuinely hilarious and touching. The music was great throughout the game, too, I can definitely see myself listening to the OST. Basically, this game is so excellent and I enjoyed my time with it very, very much.

I feel like I'm the only one that actively disliked Underhero? Maybe I'm crazy.
Like I genuinely didn't think there was anything special about it. You had every tool in your arsenal very quickly, enemy types were largely uninteresting and resulted in monotonous combat, platforming felt loose and uninspired, boss fights were cool thematically but the mechanics sucked and way too much backtracking. I stopped playing probably very close to the end because I just didn't care anymore.
Music slapped though, that shit was good.

Armello isnt a 4X, its a board game primarely focused on multiplayer
I felt so terrible for Paper Castle when they were looking for folks to stream the game.
Double dipped on Toki Tori 2+ at $1,50. TBH, I felt kind of bad because it's a game that deserves to be double dipped at full price.
Yes, according to Dekudeals. (I only see that the game has a sales offer on the eShop, but don't see the actual discount, since I own the game.)
I played through the first world and yes, this is a pretty cool game. A really simple concept that is explored through level design rather than piling on new moves.
Nitrome is also great at implementing rumble in their games. They even put it in for their logo, which was also the case for Bomb Chicken. These things give me joy.
Hopefully owners of the previous game get a sizable discount then.
Embarrassed to admit I don't own an Atlus 3DS game. I've read LPs of Devil Survivor 1+2 and played a little of Untold. Which one do you guys recommend getting?
I'm leaning towards SMT IV or Strange Journey Redux.

If you're starting out get either of the Devil Survivor games (first one has a better story, second has better gameplay) or Shin Megami Tensei IV.
Ended up buying Mario + Rabbids, sub-5€ with some gold coins I had. Always had doubts about enjoying it due to my general dislike of Ubisoft games structure but I had to play that one at one point.
like, I know what you mean (even if I compleetly disagree with the concept) but of all the games, Mario x Rabbids is the farthest away from the "Ubisoft formula" you could find, not even sure how you could possibly think it had inkling of it.
that's like someone saying "I didnt play Resident Evil because I don't like Capcom fighting games"
Almost all of their games share a similar structure, it's not about the genre but their game design philosophy as a publisher.
youre talking about the "open world, giant map full of icons to clear, towers to climb" that you can find in Ubi games from Assassin's Creed to Rainbow Six to The Crew (a racing game of all things), I get it.
Mario X Rabbids has none of this.
It's that, but it's also grinding, unbearable skill trees, repetitive side quests, stuff to loot and stats to farm. I knew the game wasn't open world, but there's as I said a lot of common factors that could have been part of the experience here too.
But I already picked the game anyway, so I'll check for myself.
But there is no grinding, side quests or stats to farm in M+R?
nope, as mentioned a page or so ago. no discount for OG Madelyn owners. truly bizarre given how poorly communicated the differences are or why one would need/want to get a "royal edition."
it has zero overlap with the notorious ubisoft formula. literally zero. you can take everyone's word for that^^
The point of my original post was that I hesitated picking it up because that's present in virtually every modern ubi game. That's it. Now I just picked it up because it's cheap enough to give it a try.
Mario + Rabbids is solid, but not a must-play. One of the prettier games on Switch. Difficulty curve is wack, though. Wasn't smart enough to beat it.
Absolutely go with SMT IV. One of my favourite 3DS games overall. Terrific combat, and an interesting story to carry me along. Feels good to explore in the 3D world map. It made me a fan of the series, and has only made the wait for V all the harder.
Mark of the Ninja drew some complaints at launch for running at 30fps, but so long as you're okay with that it runs just fine.
I third recommending SMT IV. It's tough as nails especially if you're going for the Neutral ending but Magic is busted for the most part. The ally AI sucks and the friendly NPCs are dull as bricks but everything else around it is pretty good. Because StreetPass was pretty useful, you'd only lose out on that as free goodies and the possibility of getting a new demon were cool additions.
I've caught a streak of "soft" looking games and as someone that only plays portable it's been quite annoying. Starting to think I'd rather have a performance hit than a res one tbh, but what's really annoying is that in many of these cases theres doesnt even seem to be a reason for such low res, besides being shoddy ports.
Especially after the Witcher 3 patch made it clear the initial vaseline smear look was completely not needed.

I think super low res is just a very quick and relatively easy "optimization" fix that gets ports where they need to be in favor of doing actual optimization which takes time (=money the devs don't have).
