    The Best Thing About HeroQuest is….

    I guess that explains why I never saw them in stores. If they were mentioned in the materials for either the base game or the expansions, I'm surprised I never saw them, since I had all three. I still wonder what ever happened to my original games. I wonder if they ended up getting thrown out...

    Metroid

    The Wii U's a great system to play Metroid on. Other than the (3)DS-exclusive games, I think it's got all of them up to Dread available in the eShop.

    Yeah, I was really disappointed they didn't show off his limb mode, after they kept hinting at it. I want to see what they're going for here. Are they completely abandoning the Scramble City gimmick to focus on better character-specific engineering and cartoon accuracy? (Completely ignoring the...

    Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    I've heard them say a few times that all the PulseCon exclusives would not be restocked. I don't know if they ever clarified exactly which products that applies to, but I don't see any listing for Galvatron at BBTS, so my best guess is probably not.

    The Best Thing About HeroQuest is….

    So there was a hidden update in the presentation. Notice how the one guy made a big to-do about "keeping it chill" when he was asked about game development? And how all the other panelists reacted to it? That was definitely a hint. If you then watch during the Risk Shadow Forces segment, you...

    Super Smash Bros.

    Now there's an interesting idea. Smash Bros. has always been this giant celebration of gaming. Originally just Nintendo's stars, and then more and more inclusion of gaming in general. It's already been said multiple times that Ultimate is the biggest gaming collaboration ever. So maybe the way...

    2021 Game of the Year

    Yeah, Dread for me as well. I know there've been other new games this year, but it's honestly the only thing that's even jumping to mind other than Skyward Sword HD.

    Metroid

    Metroid games have always been a bit weird for me. I'm slow, methodical, and thorough. 100% completion is my normal MO. What I absolutely hate is time restrictions. So when playing Metroid games, I'm torn between my desire to get 100%, and my desire to finish fast enough for the best ending...

    Hasbro PulseCon 2021 October 22nd & October 23rd

    I was refreshing just before 4:00, and noticed that Ravage's page was up. I'd forgotten his page was already put up a while back as Coming Soon. He showed Sold Out for me as well, and I admit I let out a bit of a yell when I saw that. But I reloaded it as soon as the other items went up, and he...

    Transformers Legacy toyline

    Out of curiosity, did you watch the presentation, or just view the pictures? I ask because they talked about how all the non-Core figures will include a QR code that links to a page with a bio and tech specs. I lit up at the bio part especially. My next thought was, "ZacWilliam will be happy."

    Metroid

    I just recently played Zero Mission. That game had a few shinespark puzzles I had to look up. I know I did some shinesparks back in Super and Fusion, but it had been too long to remember anything from those games. Anyway, that recent exposure was enough for me to come up with solutions for all...

    Metroid

    That's the last item I got, and the only one I got help with. Or rather, my wife looked it up after I'd spent a while trying. I hadn't given up trying to figure it out yet, but I don't know if I would have ever gotten it without looking it up myself. What I was missing is that I didn't know you...

    New pictures of “Reformatting” Galvatron and accessories!

    Until this conversation, I had completely forgotten that the Unicron stand only has one arm for a ship. I had it firmly in mind that it had an arm on either side. Had to go and look at the stand to confirm I was misremembering. In light of that, yeah, the absence of any additional arms is...

    The Best Thing About HeroQuest is….

    There's supposed to be an update on this during Pulse Con, during the Avalon Hill panel on Saturday at 12:10 EDT. What I'm hoping for: Confirmation that they're shipping this month, as previously indicated. They mention "look to the future of the game system." I'm guessing this means news...

    Super Smash Bros.

    It is called SSB Ultimate. I really think this was a one-time thing, and Nintendo has no intention of trying to top it. I expect there will be a lot of disappointment from any people who do expect something even bigger whenever the next game comes around. As to what that next game is, I really...

    Metroid

    For everything other than the EMMIs, you press the counter button right after you see the flash. So it's all about recognizing the tells that a counterable attack is coming, then wait for the flash, and hit the button. The EMMIs are a whole 'nother story. There are two opportunities to counter...

    Metroid

    Just beat the game last night. Finished at a little over 10 hours with a little under 70%. Was a fun ride, and especially letting my daughters experience at least some of it with me. Probably the most entertaining part of it was watching my 11-year-old start panicking whenever I approached an...

    HasLab Victory Saber

    They said in one of the videos that the prototype didn't have it, but they were working on being able to rotate the sword blade 90 degrees for the final production design. That way, you can orient it to be either show-accurate or toy-accurate.
