Ah, the 30 year old schoolyard debate. SNES ended up with way more timeless games, IMO.

This is awesome news. Wayforward did a stellar job with Contra 4, I've been hoping they'd do another since then. Very happy to hear that this one will be on everything as well.

It's  weird to me that they feel like they have to do this with existing characters, and tbh the design doesn't make sense. Like even if she was Arabic/Moorish/etc that would make more sense than a black chick with dreds. Let's make Richter indigenous while we're at it lol
 
I was ok with the redesign of Isaac in the other series, I actually prefer that characterization to the one in Curse Of Darkness. But it feels like they're just shoehorning this in because they feel like they have to appeal to redditards.
 
DMC's peripheral characters are more visible than Rondo's so there's no way they'd be able to get away with it there.

Absolutely, they release those Donkey Kong games to. 
 
I was sick as fuck today so I missed all the trailer drops. Trying to catch up but two announcements are too hype not to comment on immedietly. 
 
Man I did not have a new Contra on my Bingo Card that's so fucking cool. I am hype. 
 
And Rebirth looks fucking awesome.

Classic Netflix.  

I legit was hyped for F-ZERO 99. Sure, it isn't a 3D new game but I'm glad Nintendo acknowledged the series in some capacity. I thought I'd fire it up for a few races, but I ended up sitting down with the game for a good two hours. Instead of playing until you're eliminated, you see how well you can do and get points based on your place and performance. And races are freaking insane. I've already seen videos of people placing first. 

It commits all the sins that as a dev you shouldn't commit when designing an encounter on an action game.
Is the one fight that shows the latent problems and shortcomings on modern GOW design and puts it in the forefront.
 
Like I mentioned months ago, the only fight I have felt is as badly designed as this is Solaris Ascendant on GodFall.

The triple berserker fight in ragnarok is grade a bullshit, even on normal difficulty at level 7.

FFXVI is getting 2 paid DLC updates, PC version announced
https://www.gematsu.com/2023/09/final-fantasy-xvi-two-paid-dlcs-and-pc-version-in-development-free-update-now-available

$80 for a year subscription....Almost makes me look at and be like "...Do I need to play online that bad?"
 
Edit:  This is really starting to make me reevaluate some things here honestly because I'm thinking about what I actually play online on the PS5 and the answer is very little.   Yeah I'm playing SF6 now but I could easily just buy SF6 on Steam aaaaand...not have to pay $80 a year to play it with people AND I'd have access to the full base of people to play with.  Most of the games I have across PS4/PS5 have been singleplayer for the most part so the benefits of paying that much for someone like me isn't that beneficial.  They're making me actually start considering buying digital games on Steam just avoid having to pay $80 a year to play game that's free to play on another platform.  That's not really a good look.  Curious of what Xbox is going to do/not do in response to this.
 
Edit 2:
Thinking about it even more if the reason for the price hike is due to the "Free" games that they give out each month then it'd be nice if they'd create a lower tier that gave people the choice to cut those games out at a cheaper price.  I doubt that they're going to do that unless they get enough pushback.

It's alarming how easy it is to repair and replace arcade stick parts once you get past the initial fear of breaking something.  The worst you can do with that swap is to put the harness on upside down or have it rotated incorrectly, and either of those are easily remedied. 

Finally completed my PS5 run of Sekiro and got the Immortal Severance ending. I don't get emotional over games but it was a moment for me seeing how everything played out and I can't think of a more satisfying and incredible gaming experience I've had like this in a long time. Maybe it's just all the work and energy that went into it but wow. This just made my top 5 of all time list.
