WHAT VIDEOGAMES ARE YOU PLAYING RIGHT NOW?

FINALLY playing SMT: Nocturne! It's one hell of a journey so far - walking around as a half-human half-demon thing with nothing but demons and human SOULS for company is the best thing ever. It's the first time I've played a jRPG with so little going on in terms of story and I have to say I'm really enjoying the change so far.

My main issues with the game are fake difficulty (as with any SMT game that I've played) and lack of MP-restorative items - I'm not a fan of conserving MP through entire dungeons, and even less of having to devote skill slots to stuff such as "Mana Drain" which, in all honesty, isn't even that effective.

Oh, also, I'm playing a shedload of Tekken Tag Tournament 2 these days. In case any of y'all wanna beat my ass, my PSN ID's Soul_Hacker_999

Mobile: Marvel Puzzle Quest, Injustice mobile, & Asphalt 8. These are mostly during downtime at work or commute to/from work. Also have some SNES ROMs but haven't played that in awhile for some reason. Last one I was playing was FF3. I for some reason get to random points and just stop. By the time I get the itch again I forget where I was and what I had done so far and start again.

Console: Even though I have games that I have not beaten yet for several consoles I currently don't have any consoles. Hope to change that come Black Friday. Hoping to buy a Wii U and PS3 bundle. Still undecided on whether to get a Vita or the New 3ds XL (if it comes out in the states before then). Also getting a PS TV as well.

I think I'm going to have eliminate sleep from my daily life. Lol

Playing some Costume Quest 2 right now. The setting, visual style, jokes, characters etc are still as good as in the first game. The combat on the other hand...boring and tedious again. :/

Smash Bros was sold out in all three video game stores I've been to #FML.

Meanwhile, STILL playing Nocturne. Turns out full-time work really does impact one's gaming schedule. :(

The Wii U version is $100?!?!?

I'm pretty sure it's $60 for the game alone. I got the version bundled with the game, the GameCube controller adapter, and that Smash-branded GameCube controller. You know, because Smash Bros. can't be played on just ANY controller, and the million other GC controllers that I own aren't good enough.

ALSO: Fuck amiibos. I will NEVER EVER in a million years pay any amount of money for a freaking Mario Skylander.

The GC controller is the worst controller I've ever used. And yes I had an N64 and Atari 2600.

I literally just got my copy of Fantasy Life for 3DS so... that~

I personally can't wait to go back to playing Smash with the GC controller. :(

Same. Although I don’t mind playing Brawl with the Wii’s Classic Controller, I’m just not as good without using the good ol’ Gamecube controller. Thanks the heavens that they’re at least providing the option to use it again. (Well, for a price, at least.)

Also, I just saw some copies of the 3DS version still on display when I was in the grocery store today, so too bad you can't just send me the money, Yellow Magic, and I'll just UPS it up there for ya.

I'm personally waiting for the Wii U version to come out and getting that one instead so the entire family can beat the snot out of each other on Dr. Wily's Castle in glorious HD. My dad's actually been training with Kirby in Brawl in the meantime in order to get himself ready and I think my mom still plans on using the stupid Wii Fit Trainer. Of course, my little brother ALWAYS uses Fox, ever since the original.

I’ll probably pick up a few of them. I’ll probably just have them mostly sitting in my room for novelty reasons, even if we don’t plan to use any of them for actual play. They’re mostly collector’s toys, anyways. :)

the way you have to torque your wrist to hit the B button is horrid, and you need a double-jointed thumb to hit X, and the tiny C-stick is unreachable. On a normal SNES or Wii Classic controller, your thumbjoint rests comfortably on the B button and the other 3 are quick and natural and easy to reach.

the three-pronged N64 feels more natural, and that's saying something.

The most comfortable controller I've used was the Xbox Controller S, followed by the SNES, then the Wii + Nunchuk (so nice not having to hold your hands together and cramping your shoulders!)
