@SBandy Nintendolife is about Nintendo news and this is Nintendo news.

And censorship would be the website's beginning of the end.

I think this doesn't mean a-n-y-t-h-i-n-g. If they would work on a 2D game that has nothing to do with Mario, of course they would use Mario for the job's ad.
It's their mascot and what better way to hide what they are really working on ?

As for the 3D Mario game, of course they are working on one. They're always working on at least one or two 3D Mario at a time since 1994-1995.

Good. The more, the merrier

Best game with Moai for me : Parodius !

I'm surprised no one mentionned this one here. I guess it's a sign Parodius is slowly slipping into forgetfulness 😕

Turns out, the Zelda remasters I would like the most on Switch are :

• A Link between worlds
• Skyward Sword

For just one simple reason : graphics would win so much on this games to be in HD.

cuuuute alert

@Ladasta waiting for Zelda in my mailbox tomorrow or the day after !

But I stil haven't finished Control on Xbox One 😅

If we annoy the gardener enough, does he cook us ?

@Ladasta You have exactly nailed my problem !
I think I got lost by thinking a lot of games are interesting (which is true) and I SHOULD play them (which is not true). That's why I have so many games I don't play and I don't feel anymore the pleasure I had before while playing.
Thanks !

@dugan To make the decision harder, I'm asking myself the question if I shouldn't take that time to play Red Dead Redemption 2 or The Witcher 3, which I still haven't touched...

The bottom of my thoughts is that I think I had a better time with video games when I had only the money to buy one each 3 months than today, where I can buy 2-3 a month.
A good Zelda, a good fighting game and a good puzzle game : maybe that's all I need to enjoy myself with video games.

It's a really hard dilemna 😅

I played 120 hours, beat the 4 main dungeons and Ganon but have still 60% of regular dungeons to visit (!). And a lot of places to visit.

But I stopped playing more than a year ago. And since then no other game has offered me as pleasure as BotW.

On top of that, I realized recently I've never visited a village (the one from Windwaker).

Now I'm really asking myself if I should start this game again from the beginning and enjoying it as much as possible, even if that means spending 300-400-500h hours on it. And forget about other video games releases. It would mean such a change in my habits (I buy 2-3 games a month - almost never finish them), which is a little scary, but that would open me to more immersion (and pleasure) into one fantastic game. Big dilemna !

@MrBlacky I guess you're right. A patch has been released on Switch August 1st or something like that.
As a XBox One 1 player (for that game), I focused on the delay of the X1 patch. And I've concluded wrongly the Switch patch was also delayed. (I've read some comments that imply that too).

So to be fair, it's not delayed, you're absolutely right : it's still not announced. Thanks for the clarification !
It's a Switch patch release update which says "We still don't have any date to announce". As Nintendolife wrote correctly in its article.

@MrBlacky "As mentioned in the last update, the bulk of our development resources are still being put into the major Switch update. We don’t have an ETA to share with you on the full revamp, but we are on track to deliver on our internal dates."

@MrBlacky It's in the paragraph "Last Word", under the fan artworks.

Nintendolife just published an article about it :
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/09/bloodstained_team_shares_update_on_incoming_switch_fix_but_theres_still_no_set_date

(You're welcome )

And for the record, the Switch patch is not the only one being pushed back. Xbox One patch was planned for late august and is now announced for last week of september. At least it has a release window, unlike switch patch.
(I don't know about the PS4 patch)

@MrBlacky Scroll a little more down.

@ryancraddock Duly noted !

Hey Nintendolife.
I know it's not the place but there's news about the Bloodstained's patch for Switch, delayed to "well, we don't know when"
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/iga/bloodstained-ritual-of-the-night/posts/2581977

Xbox One's patch was due for the end of August and is announced now for last week of September. I don't know about PS4 : maybe it has been released like it was planned at the beginning of August ? Maybe not.

You can delete this message after having read it of course
(is there any place where we can notify you of those sort of things ?)

Hurrah for a company who tries different things.
Don't care if it fails. You have to try things before succedding.

@NEStalgia
"Kyoto they have people gracefully doing serious yoga poses. This is apparently what Nintendo thinks of the world. "

And I quite agree with them

Make it compatible with Switch, PS4, X1 and I'll buy one.

That's nice but that's not the first time an exclusiv game gives a nod to another. Sony's Uncharted Trilogy had a "The Masterthief Collection" trophy which was a reference to Microsoft's Halo Masterchief Collection.

And I think there's a lot of other exemple like that.

It's a golden rule in ANY good game. Even a From Software one.... ESPECIALLY in a From Software one.

And it's the reason why in Super Mario Maker you must finish your own level before publishing it.

@CharlieGirl It's a Nintendo news website. It's perfectly normal. They're doing their job.

@Not_Soos You play too much 😂

CTR destroys Team Sonic Racing on every aspect.

I tried Sonic on Friday for the first time and Crash on Saturday and it's day and night : CTR is immediatly fun and TSR is ... interesting but not very fun.

That sounds like a mistake on the box. Pure and simple.

@Wavey84 Haha. My worst nightmare was on Final Fantasy Tactics : after 50 hours of game, I arrived in front of a boss who was wayyyy too strong for my characters. But the save point was juste before him. And there was no way to go back to upgrade my characters : the f$*%£ing door that got me here was now locked. I tried 40-50 times to kill him with different techniques. There was no way.
I never finished the game...

@Wavey84 Ninja Turtles on nes crashes the party

"The hardest game ever made" ? Go play Rick Dangerous on Atari ST and let's talk about that again.

@Tsurii Do you think even Project Zero Maid of the Black Water would fit on another system than the Wii U ? (it's a real question not irony : I haven't played the game)

Make them fully operational and I will throw you my money af !

@FTL I know. But resolution was lower.
But the main thing is in terme of feelings : I really prefer the genesis version (and for the music obviously).

Megadrive/genesis versions were so much better. Especially for the music and gameplay.
So it's a 100% pass for me.

@Rob3008 @Spoony_Tech FF12 on XBox is a worldwide digital only release except in USA.

Yeah, that's a shame.

Hahaha, I love this video !
Gameplay still seems a little odd and slow to me but it looks like a fuc**** great hommage to Castlevania by its own creator.
And I want to encourage that.

Day one for me. But not on Switch.
I need it to be smooth and I guess Switch is only 30fps.

FF12 on Switch : well.. why not... but no thanks.
I'm getting the 60fps version on Xbox One X.

Well. That was 2'53 very long minutes.
And not a single smile on my face.

Did Super Smash Bros last update benefits from the boost mode too ?

I'm guessing the resolution is still the same as if it was with the Toy Con VR ? Anyone confirms ?

@Tandy255 Well, 24 hours after our little chat here, Nintendo bring us an answer by announcing a stylus for Super Mario Maker 2. Hourra !

@sixrings I had also in memory the last Yoshi on Wii U : beautiful but a pain in the a** to watch animated in 30fps.
Look at the mod someone made to make it run emulated at 60fps on PC (and 4K !). It changes totally the feeling of the game.

That's the real reason I'm glad Switch's Yoshi is in 60fps.

But you're right : we should have a graphic mode.

@sixrings OK, I replied a little too fast, sorry : I have absolutly nothing about giving the choice !! They should indeed. For exemple I'm so sad that they don't give a performance mode in Sekiro on XBox X to have a locked 60fps in 1080p (it's only 1800p with 40fps).
So yep, we should have the choice. The "nightmare" I was talking about was a pure question of taste : I would should the performance mode every time.

And no, I'm not the kind of gamer you're mentionning : I'm not a huge fan of the latests CoD or every football game ever, but I'm glad they exist. The more the merrier !! 🎉

@BlackenedHalo Your comment is a nightmare for me 😂
60fps will always be the best choice as far as I'm concerned ! The gameplay feels so much more precise.

Looks great ! I bought the Xbox One X version but when I see that footage, I'm thinking I would have bought the Switch version instead.
Portable mode rules.

Too bad they didn't release the footage before !

If only they could add a "turn off the awful music" option...

Without stylus, I guess Picross lacks too much of precision.

As for me, I can't wait for a Picross 3D Round 3 on Switch... but that will be hard without touch controls :/ or without stylus :/

It's nice they kept the reveal of the final launch character for the day before release.

As for the unlockable content in the Krypt, they announced yesterday that they're gonna fix it with a patch in a few days.

I totally understand they don't show the Switch version for now.
And I totally understand it doesn't mean it's a bad port.
It might be a great port. But it will be obviously far less beautiful than the XBox and PS4 versions. And general public don't get that.

So trailers have to show the game in its best versions. General audience won't care if it's the switch or the PS4 version : if the game looks like a PS3 game, they will think it looks like that on PS4/X1. Even if it's a switch labeled trailer. Public don't understand the difference of power between those machines like you and me in this comments section.

I'm not even sure we'll have a public switch trailer. Maybe a trailer that show PS4/X1 AND Switch versions, making its point it's not the same. That would be smart.

@60frames-please I would love that but I think it will be harder (and more expensive) to go back into the code of 3D games than 2D. Because their are a loooooot more complex !
So if SNES remixes is definitily possible, I wouldn't bet on N64 or GameCube.

But who knows, maybe Nintendo will contradict me.

My answer summed up in one emoji :🤞
