@Jayenkai Yes, at 720p30fps as Goddess Hylia intended (with dips in the Korok Forest)

@ShieldHero

There is only one reason someone wanted white people in a new production of Hamlet, because they were (likely) white people in Shakespeare's original production.

There is only one reason someone wanted Peter Pepper of Burger Time to be a white person, cause in the original arcade game you can just make out he is white when avoiding sausages.

There is only one reason someone wants white people on the baseball team, because the first baseball team maybe had all white people.

There is only one reason someone wanted white men at Yale, because they were all white men in the original graduating class.

Any changes to these would be jarring for someone.

@Stormcloudlive The one I play the most is the original PS1 game on my Vita. I just love the sound design so much. Pure nostalgia, maybe, but still fun as heaven or hell.

@Truegamer79
"Actors should be chosen for their talent and acting skills" Hard agree.
A lot of people (not saying you are one of them) will say cry woke if non white/binary actors are cast for the right reason though.
There will be cases where these decisions have been made for political reasons but it's very problematic to just instinctively fall back on this assumption.
Being a minority doesn't preclude you from talent.

@DadJKP Haha funneh get it, transexuals have taken over Hollywood, just like the recent How to Train Your Dragon remake which definitely recasted Astrid as a dude.

After conquering every Country, 64, Jungle Beat, and Odyssey before this, I'm ready to expand dong one last time!

This is fantastic news!! Casting actors who are experienced but not mega stars is honestly the best case scenario. If they cast celebrities to attract attention it'll probably be for the side roles. I'm glad I can breathe a sigh of relief!

Glad to see this turned out well. The exploration and destruction is right up my alley. It's not going to make me buy an S2 right now (waiting for a revision with better battery life), but it's good to know the back catalogue has at least one must-have title by the time I do.

@Fizza Tbf, most of the Mario movie cast are legitimately talented actors. It was just that some of them were miscast.

Um wow that's a huge announcement to make right tf out of nowhere. No strong feelings on the Zelda franchise, hope these kids do a decent job and ignore the stunted manchildren ***** who will insult them for nothing.

@YunoboCo those are different.

Good review, and it's good to see someone who actually gives Mario Odyssey the respect it deserves, which is strangely rare

I’m body and so is my ready.

Looks wise, this looks like great, spot on casting.

Not entirely familiar with either one's previous work, aside from starting The Haunting of Bly Manor, but never finishing it.

Exciting, nonetheless, to get some real movement on the movie.

I thought that a nintendo consumer supposed to buy nintendo's platforms for the exclusivities. If there are no exclusivities then why to bother give a great amount of money and effort to play 3,4 or 5 years old 3rd party games that already been on other platforms and cheaper ?!
Besides, I don't know anyone, from this generation, that have only a Switch platform as only and main gaming platform.

At least for me that was the reason that I bought Switch Oled. Many 1st parties and some indie or AA games that didn't play or seemed better on other platforms (+ the hybrid factor).

Now, has almost 0 exclusives (at least for now) and all those PS4 era games that have been announced I have already played them on PC or PS/PS5.

Also, I don't care if companies want a cheaper way to put their games. I care only for my pocket and I can't see any real benefit from game key cards.
I have already switched this gen on digital only, but this "monster" that they call game key card it has no real purpose to exist for!

I'll be getting my copy tomorrow, super excited to play this

that’s not Chris Pratt or Kim kardashian

@Samalik I guess that's true, but I feel like the same consumer freedom you're advocating for would mean someone can just... take keywords off they don't care about anymore? As long as none are instituted by default I don't see the problem with that, if someone specifically doesn't want Vampire Survivor-likes in a Bullet Hell search for example.

Like I probably support your view overall but if someone wants to filter racy games they should be able to no matter if they're "missing out" on fun games, just like people should be free to enjoy that content they should also be free to find it a turn-off (no pun intended).

@Stuffgamer1 Yeah, same thing happened to me. The brightness was almost set to max. I could just manually tone it down again in the options though. Guess the update just set it on some kind of default setting.

@PikminMarioKirby A bit weird considering Xenoblade X had worse performance on Switch but they gave that 10/10.

Can't wait for "Pokemon Radio, Stereo, Beats" a Paid Subscription service where you can listen to all the Franchises Music on the Go for a stupid price that Nintendo allows us to have for free!

Or it might be a Game...

@ButterCashier they didn't do his makeup yet. It will be pink in the movie.

Sorry if I'm being REALLY stupid, but are these just the actor's photos, or of them as their characters? Think they look good! Brown hair throws me off but I can quickly look past that

Awesome stuff. I can't wait to pick up my copy tomorrow.

@Axecon I recommend reading Eurogamer's review for those answers.

@N00BiSH the exact same reason people always say “oh yay I preordered this game!” on every article

I was intrigued, then interested, then sold, now excited! Will grab a copy tomorrow and, ahem, dig in!

@PessitheMystic what are even talking about? it is literally still there?

Wake me up when Danny DeVito's confirmed for Tingle

"Country music — and we don't mean Dolly Parton" 🤣

Anyway, I was actually guessing that this game would get a 9/10, it appears that I was correct!

Love it. And I dont even know who these 2 actors are.

@N00BiSH Ugly DK obviously equates to a bad video game. Duh. /s

I want to experience that big DK energy

@YunoboCo oh you deleted your original comment with the poor take and embarrassing criticism? I wonder why.

@Ralizah is that really how a review score works, the listed cons are -1 from a 10/10? Mario Kart World had 3 noted cons and got a 9/10, so I don’t think that’s how it goes when feeling out the overall rating for most reviewers

@YunoboCo why do you feel the need to make the exact same "new DK is a blight on humanity" comment every time the game is brought up

Except for the framerate problems, the game itself (too ME), is much more fun to play, than Odyssey. The pacing is better overall.

I just hope they can improve the performance, with a patch.

After the piece of sh*t that is Strive, there's no love lost from me.

Strive to me is the textbook example of "Japanese franchise that strips itself of its identity in order to appeal to westerners".

His ears are all wrong!!!

The game may only be a 9, but the "Big DK Energy" tagline is a 10/10.

@PessitheMystic cringe-level response

Ah another Japanese company being anti-consumer. Color me surprised /s

@N00BiSH If my comment was so “garbage” why do you feel the need to reply to every single comment I make about DK

@Suketoudara, there's only one reason that I wanted white actors for Link and Zelda: because they have white skin in the actual games, not because of politics. If they had any other skin color, it would kind of be jarring to me because I'm used to the specific look of the characters that I've loved for years. I'm not the kind of person who complains about that stuff on X (I don't even have an X account yet but will eventually for advertising my books), and honestly... all the people there complaining about stuff like that are kind of wasting their time, and I don't care in the slightest. Other people can waste their time however they like.

@Exerion76 waiting for a Switch 3 performance boost before I play

1/10 too much banana. Literally unplayable.

Can’t wait to get my copy and amiibo tomorrow!
