I never thought Nintendo would actually release an Amiibo of their senior employees, yet here we are.

Uhm, no! The international dateline is in the Pacific Ocean, east of Japan, not west of Japan. December 8 20:00 JST (UTC+9) is December 8th everywhere in the world including two time zones in the far east across the international dateline that actually observe UTC+13 and UTC+14.

@mjharper

“That's 6am on the 9th of December, FYI.

“8th December at 8pm JST on YouTube and NicoNico Live (that's 3am PST / 6am EST...””

What's the story with LRG?

Addendum:
I see now you explained it later.

@Stocksy
"LRG are terrible, greed has taken them over. It’s a shame as I think it’s gonna cost them and that’s one less company publishing. Their own fault that collectors are losing patience with them"

Does it exist a Splatoon 2 save back-up tool? I need it.

I'm curious, how long is the delay from user input until screen reaction?

@Wanjia
"I've been streaming Assassin's Creed to a chrome browser for the past few weeks!"

I'll never play video games on remote hardware until the time from user input to screen reaction is close to 10ms. Also, if the video feed has Netflix- or YouTube-level of compression, then no thanks!

Make a compete game and then release!
Stop with all the mediocre DLC!
Spend those development resources on making a new, complete game!

No online? No, thank you! I’ll continue playing Civilization V on PC.

@PlayedNSlayed

What's wrong with the audio? Compressed data size, compressed dynamics, unsatisfying surround sound, or something else?

I don't care about this game in particular, but this filthy trend of removing games from sale.

@Guiltygear

"Oh man the amount of white knights is hilarious. No one cared about the first game and I doubt you care about this one but suddenly it’s a problem they removed the first from the store."

Oh, but I can! How can you fail to see the difference?

@BensonUii

"You can't buy physical games either if they stopped printing it and went out of stock."

Hahahahahahahaha! No different? Really? Try to sell me a used downloadable game!

@Donutman

"but if you already purchased it, you can still redownload it. This is no different then a game selling out back in 90s, and not finding anything but the sequel on store shelves.
Any excuse to complain about change."

Its title is "Fortnite". How is that not proper?

@XenoShaun
"Shame its still just the crummy Battle Royale. I want the proper Fortnite dangit."

For some reason, even though I own all Nintendo consoles since the SNES, I never played any Mario Party until I bought Mario Party 10 on Wii U.

Is this better than MP10?

No.

I loathe these 3DS remakes!
Switch, please!!!

I want virtual console to return!

I wonder what happened to 90's Arcade Racer. Seemed similar to this game, but I never read anymore about it after 2015 or 2016.

This is outstanding news! King K. Rool is such a great character, and people have been begging for him for ages, just like Ridley!

You are mixing "memory" with "storage". The Switch has 4 GB of memory and 32 GB of storage.

Cool, I guess.

Referring to my post 7 posts up:

“Minecraft's Better Together Update is a mess on console”
https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-10-13-minecrafts-better-together-update-is-a-mess-on-console

“If you already own the Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition game will be able to download this definitive version free of charge [...]”

Months ago I read the original was far superior! Are you sure this is the “definitive edition”?

I will only pay for for single games. I will never pay for a subscription service that can end whenever Nintendo see fit.

Off-console server saves! (I loathe the word “cloud”.)
Finally!!!

Nintendo and their naming problems. How hard is it to make unique names?

Heads up, Nintendo! Nintendo Switch Online is the name of an app!

Wow! A game I never heard of before suddenly became one of my most anticipated ones!!!

But can it run Crysis?

Uuuh, so about that acid “night sky” game from Switch’s launch... how do you explain that? Come one, try! I bet you can’t!

Hahaha! I find it hilarious when people that know nothing about image processing and has no respect for the original work, are left alone handling tasks like making the icon from that source material. You simply do not alter a work's aspect ratio, and compress the geometry along the horizontal axis, like what was done here. Never. Ever.

Of course Nintendo has plans for their next console, and why wouldn't it continue with a formula that seems to result in huge sales now? Nintendo just chooses to keep research and development within a tight circle of employees.

Yes, it is fun!
Clam Blitz is my new favourite mode, after Rainmaker was my favourite for 28 months!

@Obitokamui64
"I haven't tried clam blitz or whatever it's called yet. Is it a fun mode?"

I love Pac-Man, but all these different Pac-Man CE games confuse me because I don’t know which version is the best, so I have never bought any of them for any platform. If there exist a definitive edition, I’ll buy right away!

(Actually, this review might contain the information I desire, so I’ll read it later today or tomorrow.)

Thank you for absolutely nothing, Nintendo!

Chance-who? A rapper? Oh, I don’t care about rap.

Anyway, this game looks fun enough for me to try. Splatoon 2 is great at almost everything, but is ruined by a broken rank system. Splatoon is better than its sequel by orders of magnitude! How does Fortnite handle ranks and matchmaking?

I like Rain Games and its games, and it has little to do with that they’re based in Norway.

Hahahahaha!
Another crap “game” like Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp!!!

I’m puzzled... why isn’t this a four-game collection? All SteamWorld games on one card for €60/$60 would make more financial sense for the developer, and for the customers, as this will likely cost about double of the downloadable version.

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to check it out!

@GravyThief
"The OneUps do this on their Volume 2 album. It's really nice and relaxing, I couldn't believe such a great little tune was on the Mii Channel. They also do an awesome Jazz style rendition of the Koopa Beach theme from Super Mario Kart. It's awesome."

I love this!!!

Please, just leave the dead hedgehog alone.

Sweet detail!

I never played any Half-Life games, but I will try the third entry.

I love Limbo, which you can probably guess be looking at my profile picture. I own it on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

Too bad Limbo never released on Wii U. With Limbo’s sequel — Inside — set to release on Switch, wouldn’t it be a great occasion to introduce this gem of a game to players who only own Nintendo consoles?

@Dom
“Nintendo has a strict limit on patch sizes [...]”

Can you list them?

What quality standards? Were there ever really any?

@Rhaoulos
“I still don't get how a game that barely works can be accepted by Nintendo. I know they changed their policy on accepting games on their systems and get as many 3rd party games as they can, but they should keep their quality standards”

The cards unfortunately only contain the 1.0 version. I don’t think a single first-party Switch game is at version 1.0 now.

On Wii U, I have one... just one... first-party game on disc that is in version 1.0 out of over 20 games! I don’t remember which right now, but think it might be Donkey King Country: Tropical Freeze.

Because of download-only games and game updates for disc/card games, closed storefronts cause games to disappear.

I loathe the trend and will no longer buy non-exclusive third-party games for Nintendo consoles. Steam has a good track record keeping 20-25 year-old games alive, so my money will be better spent there.

@joey302
“This is why retail physical purchases is my preference! Someday, this will happen with the other consoles as well!! The industry must try to arrive at a solution!”

When Nintendo takes away my right to redownload games, I will research how to hack the console.

Because Nintendo does this with old consoles, I’ve stopped buying games on Switch available elsewhere.

I watched the trailer, but I still don’t know what the game is about.

I’m not going to tag the person, but I’ll say this:
A person that believes the included Switch dock is free, has absolutely no knowledge about basic economics.
