@Crono1973 I’m sorry these past 3 months, they didn’t add games to the subscription, but really, we haven’t even had a general direct in the same amount of time. If March comes by and still nothing, then I’ll be concerned. I’m not going to go crazy over a measly 3 months when they put 20 games on the service to start with.
@Crono1973 You're comparing them coming out and saying that games aren't going to come to the service every month, to a scenario where they are rendering consoles completely useless? I fail to see what you could possibly be trying to argue with me here
It’s a bit bizarre seeing some comments here. Reading them, you’d think it’s been years since they added games to the service. In a week it’ll be 3 months.
@RushDawg Not much they can do about third party games, especially Mega Man and Castlevania. Capcpom and Konami would rather push their collections, then allow them to be on NSO.
@NinjaSyao To play devil's advocate, the gyro controls for the Joycons, and the IR sensor of the Wii Remotes are radically different, so they wouldn't be able to just copy paste them into the Switch port
@Kalmaro I fail to see the issue, since you would need to be connected to the internet to play online in the first place, so updating the game shouldn't be an issue.
@w00dm4n The 3DS had two DQ games: a remake of 7, and an enhanced port of 8. The remake of 7 is the best way to experience 7, and the 3ds version of 8 is really good. For 8 I could recommend either the original PS2 or the 3ds versions as both have their good points. Just don’t get the mobile port of 8, it runs badly
@YozenFroghurt I argue it does have an impact on the game because the censorship completely ruined chapter 2. If they had removed the gravure modeling and replaced it with something as good or better, you wouldn’t hear any complaints from me. However they did such a poor job rewriting chapter 2, it really hurts the narrative of the game. I’ll still wholeheartedly recommend the game to anyone, even with chapter 2’a issues, but I still can’t overlook the blemish on the game that is chapter 2.
@YozenFroghurt That’s kind of like saying “My house is on fire, but the wildfires in California are worse, therefore I shouldn’t complain.” Sure there are bigger problems with censorship in other countries, but to use that as a way to dismiss censorship in a smaller scale, does not contribute to the conversation in a meaningful way. I’m sure I could come up with a situation people face that is worse than their government censoring, but giving that situation does nothing for government censorship, and in effect is just ignoring that problem for a perceived larger issue.
@YozenFroghurt So because there are more issues with censorship in the world, we shouldn’t complain when it happens in a game? Is that the argument you’re making?
@Nintendofan83 1 is old, and has its age really shows, but is still pretty fun to play. 2 is an improvement over 1, but is not very memorable. 3 is still one of the best on the series, but I would recommend other versions of 3 over this one.

@sixrings It hasn’t even been 3 months yet.
Re: Talking Point: What's Happened To Switch's NES And SNES Games, Nintendo?
I think they explicitly stated they would be coming less frequently. If I remember correctly, you guys reported on that yourselves.

Re: There's No Need To Be Afraid Of This Day One Update For Luigi's Mansion 3
@Kalmaro I fail to see the issue, since you would need to be connected to the internet to play online in the first place, so updating the game shouldn't be an issue.
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Will Not Support Cloud Saves
@Dang69 I don’t like the solution where you have to be online to trade. Not everyone’s data plan is hotspot friendly.
Re: Pokémon Sword And Shield Will Not Support Cloud Saves
Thats not surprising to me. People would trade their Pokémon away, then backup their cloud save to get it back. Would open the door to duplication.

Re: Nintendo Apologises For Tokyo Mirage Sessions Censorship Misinformation, Offers Refunds
@Webheadd Its not ridiculous if you played Chapter 2 of the Western version. It was terribly written, and made no sense
Re: Nintendo Apologises For Tokyo Mirage Sessions Censorship Misinformation, Offers Refunds
@YozenFroghurt So because there are more issues with censorship in the world, we shouldn’t complain when it happens in a game? Is that the argument you’re making?
Re: Nintendo Apologises For Tokyo Mirage Sessions Censorship Misinformation, Offers Refunds
@Ventilator I was ok with the censorship in Fatal Frame V, since I think the Nintendo costumes are way better than the swimsuits.
Re: Nintendo Apologises For Tokyo Mirage Sessions Censorship Misinformation, Offers Refunds
I remember how bad the Western version of chapter 2 was. Now Japanese players get to experience that.
