Yes, Pizza Tower definitely has a low enough skill floor for casual players to get to the end and have fun along the way. There's just also a sizeable chunk of the game that is designed around much higher ceilings, namely the P ranks. There may...

It's already time for me to round out my discussion of this trilogy, because I'm officially hooked on the good Professor! Again, I must spoil my lengthy writings, but if you want a summarized opinion... consider my socks rocked!!

There is also definitely a tendency for recent games to be designed around high ceilings, that is to say the ability for a player to perform perfectly takes a lot of skill. Pizza Tower is a good example, having a player character with a ton of...

Yeah I do agree with this. It's one reason I don't play that many platformers or Metroidvanias anymore, because those genres seem to have begun synonymous with 'extremely difficult gameplay' first and foremost. It feels rare for a 2D platformer...

So over the past few years, it seems like people have been obsessed with difficulty in games, and more specifically what people call "good" difficulty. This kind of annoys me, not because I dislike difficulty, but I'm kinda getting tired of how...

Hm... I think this is partially personal taste speaking, but there is a point that a fair chunk of recent popular games have a level of difficulty higher than average. I would say the type of difficulty is different from older games; many older...

Favorite WarioWare is still D.I.Y.! Though that may change if I ever get around to playing the newer ones. I'm sorry to say picking out my favorite microgames from each title would be quite arduous, so I'll just say one I'm particularly fond of...

You know what, I'm glad he's not only finally here, but also created under Camelot's supervision. I'd feel less appreciative if he initially showed up in Mario Kart or something, but Waluigi's original creators getting to experiment with a...

The sprites for this just got uploaded on The Spriters Resource! I love how puppet-like Wario is here; he looks ready to audition for Burgermeister Meisterburger.

Not quite fan art in the traditional sense, but neat enough:

I'm not the best at offering comfort for such situations, and I don't know you as well as other members here... but I've felt similarly in the past, and if nothing else, I hope you just take it easy if you're feeling so overwhelmed. Get indulgent...

I hope this thread is ready for it's own Layton era, because after clearing the first game I was too eager to clear the sequel! Though perhaps I should start spoiling these since I'll likely have more and more to say each time...

Hah! well this ones fitting, Layton VS Phoenix Wright! I thought I might aswell get this one out of the way before I get into the Edgeworth games and... this game genuinely caught me off guard with its story! as someone who's here mainly for the...

I actually got this manga a while back, because the entire 4-book series portrayed elements from Wario World, Master of Disguise, and Shake It. ( was hoping a certain character from the latter would appear... but she doesn't. Cgrrr: I can get...
