MillionX Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 SKUL THE HERO SLAYER! Oh yeah, it's on the way to Switch soon...next Thursday!!!! I've had my eye on this game since first hearing about it months ago https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/skul-the-hero-slayer-switch/ J-ride, DoctaMario and RSG3 3 Quote Link to comment
DoctaMario Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 If Nintendo included pretty much all their 1st party games on NES, SNES, GB, GBA, N64, GC, and some good Genesis stuff, would you guys pony up the $50 for that? I could see it being worth $50 a year to have access to a whole library of great games, but imo N64 and Genesis don't peak my interest enough to want to pay that. I barely play the NES and SNES emulators as is. Quote Link to comment

purbeast Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I wouldn't pay anymore than $20 for NSO but that's because I just use it for online play and don't care about those older games. If I wanted to play them, I could go do that very easily. I don't need Switch to do it. Hawkingbird, DoctaMario, DarkSakul and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment
DarkSakul Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) With the quality of service that Nintendo offers for their online, I wouldn't pay more than $20 annually anyways. XBL and PSN are still superior. I just canceled my Nintendon't Online subscription renewal (it comes up next Month) as I don't play Animal Crossing or Pokemon Sword any more. Just as Purebeast said, I don't need NSO to play NES and SNES games (Switch Emulation is already lacking). Edited October 16, 2021 by DarkSakul Nintendon't Quote Link to comment
Wellman Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Love the N64 and enjoy Genesis classics but fuck that price. I am sad that some asshat in Nintendo may use this as a means to bad mouth N64 and the Genesis value when this is clearly then over valuing older games. Ironically I may have been swayed if this was the price at the jump mostly because I wouldn't know how badly they would do the feed of games on the Switch online services. Granted the N64 has a much smaller library to choose from but knowing Nintendo it will offset that by only releasing 4 games annually after a initial launch of 12 games.

Chadouken Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I'd love to see Snake Rattle 'n' Roll, but it's a Rare title (and incidentally David Wise does the music) so I doubt it'll ever make an appearance.

DoctaMario Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Wizards & Warriors would be a really good series to have in there too. I'm not sure what the criteria is for some of the games they pick, and they definitely have some good ones, but there are some pretty wack choices particularly on the SNES side. Quote Link to comment

My inherent issue with something like this: It'll probably happen before I'm dead. /s Who am I fucking kidding, Nintendo will drip drip drip feed the fuck out of N64 and MD/Genesis games as long as people aren't the wiser and are oblivious to their attempt to bilk customers out of their money. Also the people who buy into the year sub with the ACNH DLC are stupid dumb, and have more money than sense. FWIW, I'll keep my $60 for 3 years worth of NSO over 1 year of the horseshit they're currently selling, any day. In fact, I think my NSO sub from pre-pandemic is supposed to run out very soon; and I'm not renewing right away because outside of Shmups and Metroid Dread; my Switch is not really used, and is currently ever-so-close to heading to the storage unit to never see the light of day again.

MillionX Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 ...so I still enjoy making the Mii characters... such a shame that there isn't much to the customization there, and there's not much you can do with those characters aside from play them in Smash or Mario Kart. Just recently I made "Chicknbone" (had to drop the first 'e' since that is too many letters)... a mii based off that dude I knew in high school with that nickname....forever etched in my memory after that day he randomly beat the hell out of a fat cheerleader in Art class. I'm up to 46 miis at this point. It would be nice to have an action-RPG with the miis... I know there's that other rpg, I think it's "Miitopia" but y'know....the turn-based stuff just isn't my thing. A beatemup sidescrolling thing with the mii characters could be fun too. on another note---the Switch Lite has been the only system I've consistently seen in stores for about a year at this point.... I was tempted to get it at one point as my "extra" Switch, but no way at this point now that the almighty OLED is out. Wellman 1 Quote Link to comment
Wellman Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I honestly don't care for the Miis but I do think Nintendo prematurely abandoned their usage with the death of the Wii U. You don't have to force them as hard as did with the Wii/3DS/Wii U period, but there are ways to keep them more active and useful then they are now.

purbeast Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Anyone had an issue where you've had to constantly do hard reset to get the switch on? Out of nowhere my son's Switch last week wouldnt turn on. I googled it and it said try a hard reset. And that worked. And since then, I've had to hard reset it about 3 more times and I have no clue why. It's also the same Switch the wifi stopped working on out of nowhere a few months ago. I'm going to call Nintendo about it too and see what they say. I got this for him last Xmas and it's the Animal Crossing one so having these issues less than a year in is a downer.

But so bad I can clearly see the delay Also the controls on the N64 emulation is Garbage. Also I want to add, all Software Emulation has Lag. It's not just input lag. Its because you are trying to do that system translation on the fly in software, and with the sequential nature of computer processing, you need a fast CPU and multiple cores to combat that latency. There tricks like run ahead mode that reduce the lag times, but that can only count for so much. FPGA/Hardware Emulation would be lagless, but last I check there no FPGA cores available yet for the N64. Edited October 26, 2021 by DarkSakul DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment

Probably not enough room for an in-depth analysis with a Twitter post. I suspect their be more incoming. The OP did compared to an actual N64. I do know that MVG has a video incoming (comparing the NSO N64 to popular PC Emulation and Real Hardware), and I sure Digital Foundry will have a video as well. Quote Link to comment

Shit so laggy I can see the delay noticeable For link not to jump till you let go of that button press, that has to be at least 11 frames if not more . Unacceptable as Emulation coming from Nintendo who want's subscription money A good quality HDTV gives 10 milliseconds of delay Not enough to throw results that bad Just now, purbeast said: LOL @ this dummy and his thumbs down reactions.

DarkSakul Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) Watch before commenting Also the Netcode is a flaming dumpster My suggestion, do not get NSO unless you really have a hard-on for paying money to Nintendo. Find a old N64 and a Everdrive instead, Raspberry Pi, your Phone, pirate the shit, anything but the shit Nintendo is currently peddling. Even the N64 Emulator for hacked Switch consoles run better.

MillionX Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 terrible...heh, that sounds like what I'd expect out of the old xbox 360 in terms of longevity. I've had the launch-day Switch right from day 1, and so far no problems like that....only the joycons have been an issue for me; at this point I gave up on them... I just use the pro controller all the time now. ah, I just remembered that Children of Morta was on sale for real cheap recently, but I probably missed it; it was around 8 bucks if I recall. I keep seeing the physical version of Friday the 13th at one of my regular places...the "Collector" side of my brain compels me--- I may go on and get that next. Whenever that finally disappears, it will become impossible to get. I'm surprised the game even lasted this long, considering the constant legal/trademark issues involved with that movie franchise. Quote Link to comment
purbeast Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Yeah I also have a launch Switch that is still working fine but sent in joycons for drift issues. I'm going to be selling it shortly though since I got an OLED one and it's unpatched so probably can get like $300 for it. Quote Link to comment
Sonichuman Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 I've only switched out my Joy cons once but I've also been mostly playing on pro controller. I haven't had any issues to speak of with the system itself since launch not yet anyway. Darc_Requiem 1 Quote Link to comment

DoctaMario Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Yeah probably, either that or just use the thumb stick, but I would prefer using it like a Wiimote, though I'm not sure how functional that is. At this point, I've gotten so use to playing rail shooters with thumbsticks it's like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ to me Quote Link to comment

Rewind works on the same principles as Save States It's easier to do it on NES, SNES and Genesis emulation as you can more easily take a snapshot of the memory (all the ram memory status). But with Rewinds you do a second's worth instead of that one instance. N64 starts getting into the range of that way too much to back up. Plus NES, SNES and Genesis Emulation go to the point it should run almost perfect. N64 Emulation has been a mess for a while. Wellman and Abbachio 1 1 Quote Link to comment
