Although not directly related to this post, I wanted to share my appreciation for the Ni no Kuni playthough, Damiani. I was shocked when I saw that video, as both a patron and the team lead on the fan translation (if you feel like verifying/sleuthing you can cross-reference my username with my username on gbatemp as OP of the official thread :P), but it's fantastic to see the patch getting around. It's still such a weird idea that after five years people are actually playing the game now :D There are still a couple of issues, one silly riddle without a possible answer, although emulators appear to be doing relatively fine. I hope you enjoy and I'll do my best to tune in next stream!

2018-12-19 19:56:10 +0000 UTCSomething to consider, in regards to Sony doing their own “direct”, is that at a live conference like e3 they get a chance to promote PlayStation games to gamers that aren’t necessarily PlayStation fans, whereas in a “direct” style conference they’d be promoting to 98% PlayStation fans. This leaves little room for conversion.

2018-12-18 02:13:26 +0000 UTCI won't say who for those who don't like being spoiled, but the current rumored second fighter in Smash DLC has me even more excited. It's a series that's needed representation in Smash for years now, and it's a smart move to help broaden the series' appeal in the West. I hope they can continue pumping up the hype throughout the whole fighters' pack. It'd be a big disappointment if they just ended the whole thing with a Pokémon or new Fire Emblem character. EDIT: CORRECTION: Jack Bros, a puzzle spin-off of SMT where you play as either Jack Frost or Pyro Jack, was the first SMT game to be localized by Atlus and was released exclusively on the Virtual Boy.

2018-12-17 10:42:07 +0000 UTCDidn't know about it, I see it mentioned in articles, but I don't see a place to pre-order the special edition. Nor do I see the mention of this edition by the Crash website or social media sites, just articles that went up from sites the same say as the announcement. Must have been in a press release. I believe it's legit, but I want to read more about how to unlock it and if there's any statement on why they put them into the remake.

2018-12-17 10:41:47 +0000 UTCI will never get tired of hearing that Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 was announced. I thought for sure the franchise was dead, so glad it's back.

2018-12-17 06:28:45 +0000 UTCThis might have been shot before the 1.20 update but since then, I have gotten only matches for my preferences in smash. Its the standard 3 stock 6 min tourney rules no items which im assuming is the most popular preference, so that might be helping. Before the update however, it was more like 2/3 matches were my preferences.... Havent played more then 10 games since update but all of them were 1v1 (maybe a few permutations like 2 stocks or different time for a few).
