Re: Nintendo Is Ending SplatNet for Splatoon Next Month

Berto_Gamut

A lot of games get their servers shut down. In the next 4 months: Pro Evolution Soccer 2016, FIFA 14, MLB The Show 15, NBA 2k16, and The Tomorrow Children will be losing their servers. These are PS4 games.

This news is about an app shutting down....so I'm not sure why folks are acting like it's the end times. You can still play the game itself online.

Re: The Plug Will Finally Be Pulled On Miiverse In November

I'll absolutely miss miiverse, still use it on occasion to share games....lots of folks still upvote screen shots and art pieces. Loved it as a gamer's social media platform, only XBL communities rivals it.

Now all NS photos are more of a twitter thing, so gamers the world over won't get to see comments unless they follow specific hashtags or twitter handles. That's lame, we're losing the ability to share with all Nintendo gamers.

@kireek it's funny, I read your comment and went to amazon but the funky listing didn't show up at all.

Sigh...at least Gamestop will give me a better chance. Amazon and BestBuy are just a scalper's paradise at this point, email notifications didn't even work and I'm signed up for both.

Nintendo and BestBuy are ass. Sorry guys, I'm usually pretty understanding but considering they have an entire club.nintendo doing nothing but giving us crappy coins for crappy discounts, it's ridiculous that BB pops up their snes mini product page at 1am and sells out to scalpers by 1:20.

Instead of us getting a heads up through the NS, or miiverse, or anything on a nintendo console (or app), us actual gamers have to find out like this. Absolutely lame. Looking forward to the Amazon page popping up at 2am and selling out by 2:05

Re: Necrocosmos Aims To Bring Metroidvania Style Goodness To Switch

It honestly looks like they'll frustrate you to no end with the bullet-hell style combat.

As others have said, enough with the metroidvanias. How about the classic sidescrolling co-op brawler? Nothing today matches with Spiderman Maximum Carnage, Turtles In Time, Streets of Rage, or Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.

Re: RiME Producer Explains Why The Switch Port Is Coming So Much Later

Berto_Gamut

I've always liked when devs add challenges at the game-level that unlocks modes and art, not sure if Rime will do that though. On-system achievements don't matter, games do.

And about the korok seeds. I find it hilarious that while 900 seeds expands your inventory considerably, people only complain about the item at the end....completely ignoring what the journey got them. An item that may still have significance in the finally DLC pack.

Re: Capcom Reportedly Gearing Up for Multiple Nintendo Switch Titles

Berto_Gamut

@grudgebear Of course the West would care, it'll be a portable MH with local and online play. Nevermind that it still follows traditional MH mechanics. XX clearly won't beat out MHW (it's releasing on 3 platforms afterall) sales but chances are it'll still make money.

If they skip XX and release a lower resolution MHW on Switch, then it could get cross-platform play with XBO/PC owners and that would be awesome.

Re: Funbox Media Announces Vegas Party And Chicken Range For Switch

Berto_Gamut

Ummm....Nintendo need to get their head straight here. Nothing is wrong with smaller indie releases, but these two entries seem like cut-and-paste iOS games. I'd have the same reaction if Flappy Bird was announced to be releasing physical on Switch.

How about Netflix, Twitch, Hearthstone, Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem Heroes, Pokemon Go....it was starting off well with VOEZ but Nintendo's silence since then has been pretty concerning. I guess it takes the entire village to sell Splatoon2....
