Next time, don't wait for a patch. Review as it was released. Even with the leniency the game still bombed 🤣 and people think more patches will magically make it a good game 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️👍👍
@BloodNinja You dont have to say outright what you heavily imply. You literally complained about "people complaining, yet again, about a video game" implying that people shouldn't be able to complain about video games.
How tf else was it supposed to be interpreted? Lol
@BloodNinja This is a video game site. If we're not allowed to criticize video games, what can we criticize? Or should everything just be sunshine and rainbows?
@vicviper001 The writing was on the wall. Look at their track record and tell me with a straight face that this game was worth being hyped for. You can't just magically go from low tier to high tier dev simply because your latest game lOoKs LiKe StUdIo GhiBlI.
Honestly, who tf actually thought this would be good? Their track record is basically tens of games and all of them are shovelware crap made within mere months and none having an ounce of critical acclaim.
Ppl probably only thought this would be good because of what it looks like. Stop doing that.
@Einherjar I love this comment so much. Starting to think Nintendo Life has stake in or knows somebody who makes these crap games because some of them get a questionable amount of attention and leniency.
@Moto-Roto Look at their games list. They clearly have a history of crapping out game after game regardless of quality. Throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks I guess. Then again crap sticks best sooo
If you were surprised by any of this, that's completely on you. The writing was on the wall; this developer's pedigree is bottom of the barrel with so many games developed in a short period, not a single one with an ounce of critical acclaim.

And holding back review codes makes them look even worse.
Nintendo Life, please stop reviewing games from developers who have a history of making bad ones. Stop succumbing to baseless hype.
@Retro_Player_77 oh right, they did this out of the goodness of their hearts. Silly me, thinking they'd use this as a marketing opportunity to make a quick buck 🤦♂️
Nintendo has been sleazy lately, but I'm with them on this. The guy who got his game taken down gave an arrogant response, as if he was the first person to have the idea of inserting battle Royale into a game. Sry dude, it was cool, but youre naive if you think it was original.
@JuiceMan_V stop pretending like Nintendo is just like everyone else in limiting stock. They are in a league of their own. And by limiting even the digital release, there aren't any rational excuses left.
Another brand new dev launching their first game expecting everyone to pay the Nintendo premium. Sorry no. If you're going to charge more than iOS, you better have a proven track record.

Re: Spindle Is A Zelda-Like Where You Play The Role Of Death... And A Pig
@nimnio Not often does a Nintendo Life comment make me literally LOL
Re: Spindle Is A Zelda-Like Where You Play The Role Of Death... And A Pig
@BloodNinja Lol yet everyone fawned over Baldo because it looked like Zelda and Ghibli (which, no, it didn't lol) turned out to be hot garbage.
Re: Spindle Is A Zelda-Like Where You Play The Role Of Death... And A Pig
Any game that crutches on another IP to get interest probably ain't worth much. How'd Baldo work out for you guys 🤣
Re: This Pokémon Trading Card Shop Is The World's Largest, Apparently
I love how the dude in the thumbnail is holding a VMAX like that. Nice way to get some early scratches
Re: Random: Krispy Kreme Launches A Tasty Pokémon Dozen Doughnut Set
Just so we're all clear...that's $30 for a dozen doughnuts.

@BlackenedHalo Good puzzles have some logic to them. Without it, it's not a puzzle, but just a series of idiosyncratic chores.
Re: Review: Baldo: The Guardian Owls - Exquisite Ghibli-Esque Art Can't Hide Tortuous Gameplay
@Sdelintwouters That was pretty ill informed. wtf would lead you to believe this would be any good?

Re: Site News: So, Where's Our Baldo Review?
@gcunit Exactly. This was a game made by a marketing department, not avid developers.

Re: NPD Analyst Thinks Limited-Time 3D Mario Games Will Be Sold Individually On Switch
So basically, limited time and stock stuff is pretty much bs? Got it, Nintendo.

Re: Online Retailer Cancels Orders For Super Mario 3D All-Stars Due To "Woefully Short" Supply
@JuiceMan_V lol full stock in every store. They lied about limits to increase hype. Again.
Re: Random: Someone Made A Manual For Super Mario 3D All-Stars To "Complete The Physical Set"
Once again Nintendo will get mad at fans for doing something Nintendo should have done to begin with.
What an incredibly lazy tribute to Mario in this half assed collection. No love.

@King-X lmao right? This site has gone downhill.
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 10.2.0 Is Now Live
Did this seriously require an article to be written about it.
Re: Online Retailer Cancels Orders For Super Mario 3D All-Stars Due To "Woefully Short" Supply
@Agramonte this is exactly why Im not an early adopter anymore. They couldn't care less about their biggest fans
