Not buying a Switch 2 for a game I already played 29 years ago.
I fucking love Star Fox but it hurts to see the franchise rotting on the vine. I know Nintendo’s philosophy is that they only want to make a sequel if they can advance some new mechanics or hardware tech, and clearly they saw the mouse mode and 2-player co-op as the impetus to even make this in the first place, but god damn would I love to see a new story with the exact same gameplay.
Sometimes you just come up on a formula that works and you can let the writers take the wheel for a bit. Not every game needs to push the envelope in terms of graphics or mechanical complexity or never-before-seen gameplay loops.
I owned a Virtual Boy back in the day and… yeah. It sucked. I bring it up every time people think Nintendo are infallible - they do have shit ideas from time to time.
I also owned a PSP and I just didn’t use it much. I know it’s a well beloved console but I didn’t really like anything that I played on it.
The Wii was just okay, I just got tired of the gimmick too quickly, and the library was just atrocious. If you don’t like movie tie-in games, you miss out on like 3/4ths of the entire catalogue of titles.
I think I’m just tired of console gaming at this point. The only reason I would buy a console is if it were a mobile console that I can take with me when I want to game away from my PC, and so far the only companies that are interested in developing mobile consoles are Nintendo and Steam.
