Directional Joy

I know that you all were discussing WiiU’s launch lineup, specifically, but I gotta get something off my chest… It ALWAYS bugged me that Breath of the Wild had the inventory menu and map accessible to see and interact with, on the WiiU Tablet screen, BUT was removed, leaving the WiiU Tablet screen black & useless (perhaps because they didn’t want the WiiU version to be superior to Switch in ANY way). 🤷‍♂️ I feel better now, thanks! 😆

Maybe this is controversial but I would put WiiU’s launch lineup above the N64. I understand SM64 is considered an influential title but… 1. It was one of two launch titles. 2. I enjoyed the joy of moving Mario within the world BUT found Banjo-Kazooie to be the better game, overall (obviously, had the benefit of adapting off of SM64’s ideas).

Jerking my wiimote to charge my sword’s battery, in masturbatory fashion, in No More Heroes (Wii) is as ‘gooner’ as I have ever gotten. A friend watched, and partook as well, laughing all the way.

Play Chrono Trigger on the 3DS, Micah. Great port.
