Interesting bit of info. This may be the first "official" mention of Nintendo's next console.
It underperformed because it was released too early, according to CEO Yves Guillemot…

Never heard of this manga before. The style looks nice, I take it you would recommend it?

Mr Musk, who turns 52 later this month
You'd think he was a toddler.
Yep exactly the same for me. We'll have to see, I trust them but I've been burned before. The main character and those penguins don't look... great.
I'm not 100% sold on the art style (and the lighting) but this is definitely a game I need to play.

What the hell, I thought this was satire. Is this... not the onion?
You know, I was debating whether I was in favor or against a mascot but your comments convinced me that we do need one. All hail the bird!
Yep, that's what I'm expecting. Happy to be proven wrong tho.
After I'm done with this one, I'm debating whether to jump to Disgaea 2 or skip ahead to Disgaea 5 or 6. I've heard that Disgaea 7 addresses some of the complaints fans had with 6, so it seems promising.
The one on the left looks cute. I don't know if kbin needs a mascot, but if it does I vote for that one. The cuter the better.
P.S: If it was up to me all mascots would be frogs, but hey this is a democracy.
Disgaea 1, the start of my new addiction.
As a 'moderate' fan of tactical jrpgs the Disgaea series has always both intrigued and scared me at the same time. Intrigued because of the grind, as you can famously get up to level 9999 (many would say it's a bad thing but I'm weird so I like it), and scared because of how complicated it looked as an outsider to the series. So, after years of procrastination, last week I finally decided to play it.
I decided to start with Disgaea 1 as it seemed to be the most simple (after all, it's the first game in the series) and oh boy am I loving it! It's a cute, funny story with no pretenses and some pretty memorable characters. It's the first game in a long time that genuinely made me chuckle at times. The grind is there, and I like it (I'm one of those people that always needs something to do, even while I'm listening to a podcast or watching videos) but leveling up and "transmigrating" (aka starting over from level 1 but with boosted stats and possibly a new class) is pretty satisfying. I haven't finished the game yet but I'm near the end of the main story. Unless things suddenly go south I think I've found a new series of games that will drain my time for the rest of my life, especially since I expect the sequels to fix some of the biggest QoL concerns (the menus are a bit clunky at times).
So yeah, that has been my experience with Disgaea 1 so far. I'd recommend it, especially if you like the grind.
Interesting. Then I guess it can stay on my "to play" list after all. I'll play it, eventually!
Never played Dragon's Dogma, but I always wanted to try it out eventually. Is it really similar to FromSoft's games? That would be bad news for me, my patience DOES have a limit haha.
Exciting. Really well made trailer too, I've watched it like 3 times since yesterday and I'm loving it. The music is chef's kiss. I find it funny how all those people used to say a new 2D Mario couldn't happen because "everything can be done in Mario Maker" and then Nintendo just blows our minds like this.
Looks like a 1:1 remake with a new coat of paint. Which is good imo. I would be surprised if it turned out to be a buggy mess.
Honestly I kinda like this style better. It looks charming enough and I'm starting to think HD-2D is becoming a bit overused recently.
I sure hope so. Hopefully it sells well enough. With the death of Mario & Luigi I'm craving for a new Mario rpg.
