I'm almost obligated to play MGS3 because it's MGS3 but I'm a little underwhelmed by them not changing the voice acting at all. I think it limits what they can do with it. But still, I'll take it.

I might rent Kirby for the new content (seems like its a whole new campaign a la Bowsers Fury or Shadow Generations, right?) but like those two Im not rebuying a game I already own at full price.

They don't really need to change the story (especially with the potential to screw it up). Just update the gameplay, and it looks like it's going to play great.

Yeah I don't want sweeping story changes, but it makes it harder to make changes to environments etc if it's bound by story. Like, if you have Eva giving codec information on every area in the game, you can't add another. You can't can't do anything that smooths the transition from MGS3 to Peace Walker and V or hints at the whole Patriots thing. There's opportunities there to do some different stuff with it without downgrading the quality (RE4's remake used this to good effect and upgraded a couple of things, though downgraded some others). I dunno, it might just feel like a remaster.

I bought the Kirby game for Switch 1, but didn't play for more than an hour. When I pick it up again, is it worth upgrading right away? Or would it make more sense to just play for awhile and if I want to try the new content, pay for it then?

Upgrading right away would be better because you'll get the FPS and resolution boost for the main game

I'm assuming the new content is like a separate thing you pick from the main menu as that's how Nintendo's been handling these, but I guess I don't know yet.

Oh, this might actually be worth it then. I said I would have paid $20 for a standalone Bowser's Fury or Shadow Generations, so this would effectively be the same thing.

it's neat to me how shinobi always seems to make a random comeback whenever ninja gaiden also does lol

this is definitely a "waiting for physical copies of stuff i bought that just came out in july (or earlier)" kind of month tbh lol

doing a quick look, i think the only game i think i'm likely to buy is Touhou 20 (Fossilized Wonders).

might have a look at these two as well though since they're free

oh actually i was about to post but i did notice a handful of other things at the last second lol (prob will get these sooner or later, prob not straight away)

am somewhat interested in gradius origins and super robot wars y too, and that story of seasons remake, but i doubt i'll pick them up tbh

Still getting it but the Gradius Origins selection of games is a little bit disappointing. They say they wanted to focus on arcade releases and this is why Gaiden and V are absent, but that doesn't explain IV. There are a pretty good number of unique home/handheld games in the series but unless they can get IV, Gaiden, and V (there are middleware licenses that have expired for 5 which would make that difficult) there's not enough big names to justify another collection after this. Maybe we'll get a Parodius Collection sometime in the future though?

Oh, looks like two indies from my Steam wishlist are coming out in August.

Quartet (Octopath-ish RPG with a mash-up of SNES/GBA style pixel art)
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1307960/Quartet/

Discounty (store sim inside a town sim with maybe some dark mystery story?)

up

haven't picked up anything besides those two freeware games yet (and haven't tried them out yet). i did finally get a few of the things i'd been waiting on from play-asia over the last couple of days though

comiket in 4 days. just had a look around at other releases (besides touhou 20) to look out for, looks like a pretty good showing for doujin VN fans at least

saw a review for VARLET now, had been a bit curious about it since it showed up in that one direct around the start of the month. seems furyu didn't bite off more than they could chew with this one (like they did with Reynatis) and it's not too bad a persona clone, though it still shows a clear lack of polish compared to the titles they used to get other devs to work on (legend of legacy/alliance alive/caligula 1/2/crystar/crymachina/monark). might pick it up, though admittedly i'm hesistant with shinobi and mgs tomorrow and a month packed with a LOT of stuff i'm interested in to come (there's at least three games i'm definitely getting day 1 next week, potentially up to eight)

also i guess that harvest moon remake and the new super robot wars game is also probably out now
edit: also starlight revolver and fruit mountain party
