What game to pick?
« on: June 01, 2014, 05:03:35 pm »
So I purchased Mario Kart 8 recently and it comes with a free game. The games I can choose from are:
  • Nintendo Land
  • New Super Mario Bros U
  • Game & Wario
  • Pikmin 3
  • Windwaker HD
  • Sonic: Lost World
  • Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Wintergames (not gonna choose this :P)
  • Wii Party U
  • The Wonderful 101
  • Monster Hunter Tri Ultimate
I already have NL, NSMBU and Pikmin 3. The Windwaker HD looks interesting, but I already have the GC one. My real doubt is between Sonic and Monster Hunter. What would you guys pick?

The Wind Waker HD is basically just the gamecube with better graphics, with only slight modifications to some puzzels. (source: a walktrough)

I don't know much about the other games though, so I can't realy advice any of them.

If you have never played Windwaker before or absolutely want it back, go for Windwaker HD. Else, I liked NSMBU a lot (although beware, it's much harder than previous NSMB games). Monster Hunter Tri Ultimate is a good choice too if you like RPGs, but I don't think it's JRPG.

Ask TheCoder about Sonic Lost World. In any way, I heard good about MH. Never played any tho.

I heard Sonic Lost World isn't that impressive (much like every Sonic game that got released after Sonic Adventure series) but it wasn't that bad either. I know where I live the price dropped very fast. Like 2-3 weeks after it came out it was already discounted.

Sonic Adventure DX on the GC was awesome. Never really played any other though but according to TheCoder, there are more good ones after these.

I would go by curiosity for Monster Hutner or the grinding hunting RPG. For family I would go for NSMB WU, and for the rest Pikmin 3 to give it a shot, I specially liked the second one (no time limit + roguelike dungeon, yay).

I'm going for Sonic after all. I think I'll be distracted from Monster Hunter really fast because I don't have the time to really get into it. Maybe I'll try the demo sometimes or buy it when it's cheap :P
