..But maybe for non-gamers, that's sort of the case for all Mario Party games?
6 is my favorite because I think it has fair minigames and a strategic item system, but it could be the case that adding more agency makes the game harder for casual players to win... randomness is the great equalizer

Speaking as someone who grew up with 1, the game went for quantity over quality. More boards but they're all based around obnoxious gimmicks, you can get screwed over by the choice of minigame before they even start... the game happens TO you, rather than you really being able to PLAY it

It's a PC. Literally a Linux PC, like the Steam Deck. Not a console.
You could even install Windows on it if you *really* wanted to.
So why would the Steam Machine have anything short of full mod support?
(Or are you talking about hardware mods?)

how much will be changed? I can already see that you added a stomp, which is a good addition, and it seems like there have been some physics reworks as well. how about level design?
with a project like this I'm curious where it'll fall between "the same game, updated" and "a whole new game entirely"

Well, we're getting iicon next year, which looks like it might end up being a rebranded E3 (though it might prove to be something entirely different, we aren't fully sure yet)

didn't work if you tried using the same account. what you had to do was:
1) have one account on two switches
2) buy a digital game on that account, on your primary system
3) play the game on your secondary system, on that account
4) play the game on your primary system, on a DIFFERENT account

Yeah, but that's why they made a web version like this so you don't have to download it and jailbreak your iPhone or whatever
I'm just saying, if this web version is aimed at mobile, how do you enable touch controls? They worked automatically on the old web version, though that was on my old phone

How do I activate touch controls? Playing on mobile with controller works great but I'd like to be able to play with touch controls if possible. Surely it's possible for something designed to target iPhone, right? (Though I'm playing on Android, and yes I know about the native port)

It goes for that 90s US Sonic vibe, which is great for folks who grew up with that! But at the cost of sorta abandoning the JP Sonic personality of prior games.
Ultimately, the SegaSonic vs American Sonic debate never ended, it just evolved!
Hard to express all that nuance in 300 characters though.

Not that this is Colors' fault, but SEGA definitely took the wrong lessons from its success
"yay, this game is like the thing we liked (unleashed daytime stages) without the thing we disliked (nighttime stages)"
"oh, so you want every game to have shoehorned wisps and corny writing? sure thing!!"

Naturally, games that are a major turning point for a franchise will become contentious as soon as the people who grew up with the prior style get old enough to have opinions on the internet.
Give it another 10 years and we'll be adding Sonic Frontiers to this list.
