Re: Select EU Retailers Are Abandoning Nintendo's Suggested Retail Price For Switch 2 Games

BrintaPap

Already to late to see the price defenders, yeah yeah games were also more expensive in my country around the SNES/N64 time but did you also consider that the sales were way lower then?

Why are you guys defending a billion dollar company @Darkthany ? Nintendo could have created goodwill in these times by upholding their old prices (atleast for the software part) , do you really the complaining right now is good PR for Nintendo?

I think a 3DS situation will happen. The initial wave will sell out fast but I think with these prices adoption will happen less faster than with the Switch 1. People are fed up with higher prices everywhere and a 10/20 dollar increase per (digital) game/accessoire is not helping Big N.

Re: Nintendo Museum Overseas Visitors Reportedly Breaking 'No Photos' Rule

BrintaPap

@Flashlink99 please enlighten me then, if people if Japan are raised to be respectfull, why are there different (subway) trains for women?
Hint, it is the same reason as other countries like Brazil, India & Egypt.

No country is without their issues, people need to stop glazing over Japan. Yes it is annoying for Nintendo that people broke their rule, a very simple rule.

Re: Feature: From Piston Hurricane To Today: Why Latinx In Gaming Exists

BrintaPap

@Debo626 “ Myself and every Latino person I know despise the word "Latinx.”

Same, pretty much only people from LGBTQ+ care. No one in my family or friends (latin) use it, they also do not want to called that.

The spanish language is gendered but is that really bad, do these people only want the use that term and in long term try to make our language gender neutral.
Nevertheless the cause seems good but the name… ugh it feels like pandering straight outta left wing USA

Re: Nintendo Direct September 2023: Time, Where To Watch, Our Predictions

BrintaPap

@smoreon the have many wii (u) games and gamecube (not motion ofc) and 3dsthat don’t even require the use of motion or 3d because that one was kinda always optional.

A small list of possible games/port/remasters

Metroid prime 2/3
F-zero GX
Luigis mansion 1
Waverace (blue storm)
Eternal darkness
Starfox adventure/assault
Wind waker
Twilight princes
Paper mario thousand year door or the other one
Mario sports game (baseball/soccer/football)
Fire emblem (any)
Chibi robo
Super mario galaxy 2
Sin & punishment
Kirbys epic yarn
Donkey country returns
Rhythm fever (any)
Kid icarus
Fire emblem (any)

Quite a list and have not listed all series.

Most of these games could just do with a simple port.

Re: Best Nintendo Switch Graphics - The Most Beautiful Switch Games

BrintaPap

@Switch_Pro they should make, imo, a separate list of 2d and 3(.5)D games. If I hear most beautiful switch games I think about 3(.5)D games that push the switch limits, like MH Rise, Zelda.

I mean sure cuphead or rayman legends are one the most pretty games ever but they sure don’t push hardware as much as MH rise or Nier or Dragon Ball fighterZ do.

Re: Soapbox: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet DLC Is A Chance To Win Back Disenchanted Fans

@somnambulance like with every product or service:
The people who enjoy it are the ones you least likely to hear off.

I’ve been gaming myself for about ~21 years now and have never played Skyrim myself but have heard many times about the many bugs. But at some point I just draw a line and quit with a game and the performance of Scarlet & Violet is to blame.

How am I supposed to play battles if I cant choose my opponents pokemon? How can anyone defend that.

Anyway if that were to be fixed: if you are a competitive player like I’ve been for many years you’d notice that making comp. teams is more time consuming now. The materials are harder to come by, more expensive with in game money (for ev training) and ability patches are very scarce. You can get huge quantities at the auction but it's random. In sword and shield everything regarding comp playing was way easier imo

Re: Soapbox: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet DLC Is A Chance To Win Back Disenchanted Fans

BrintaPap

While it’s personal I don’t see how people have more fun with this than Sword & Shield and even those were bad imo.

Scarlet & Violet are so darn bugged. I have literally saved/filmed gameplay with my (ranked) battles where I could see not my screen due it being covered with flame effects of the game itself. Normally the effects happens when loading or something.
Let alone the rest of the bugs/framerates problems.

The gym challenges were also very lame.

Re: Nintendo Switch Has Now Sold Over 129 Million Units

BrintaPap

I can’t see it beating the ds, maybe if a price cut comes. Except for Mario Bros Wonder I don’t see heavy hitters, I think most people got a switch by now. Holiday will move more units but that many before a new one comes out? Nintendo does not release many games on their (by then in 2024) older consoles.

I’d still be down for an OLED switch lite.

Re: PSA: For Goodness Sake, Don't Fall For This Nintendo Switch 2 'Leak'

BrintaPap

@YoshiF2 people keep saying this but keep forgetting that there always is something new coming out, most people want something new, and to keep producing something with old chips also gets expensive.

Not only that but even though the ps2 sold more then 100 million just like the 3ds/ps4/wii etc. did. They always still announce new consoles, because of a number of reasons.

According to your logic there never should have been a next console after the wii, ps2 etc.Strike while the iron is still hot.

Re: Xbox Boss Says Call Of Duty Would Run "Relatively Great Compared To Other Switch Games"

BrintaPap

@HotGoomba honestly, im not tired but I do see a bit of not posted content being positive for xbox on purexbox and being postive for sony on pushsquare.

For proof, look up Jim Ryans (early) email about not having COD anymore on PS, you won’t find it but on Purexbox you will.

Of course the writers will probably say something about this not laying in the interest of our readers, while having overlapping users of their 3 platforms.

Then the fans go defend their favourite multi billion company. Hookshot just gets a lot of clicks about this so I can understand them. But they (right or wrongfully) do keep this going.

Ontopic: Would love COD on the switch but still need 60 fps, I understand the visuals taking a hit. But just start slowly with

Re: Pokémon GO Is Joining The 3D Billboard Craze In Japan

BrintaPap

@Not_Soos there are way too many issues with 3d on tv’s: passive or active glasses, low brightness, no glasses etc. Lowers framerate by half the original and often times just not was implemented well.
This was even often the case in cinemas where they added the 3d effect later on instead of filming with 2 camera’s. James Cameron did that with Avatar and was a superb example of good 3d implemitatio.

I love it though.

Re: Steam Deck Nintendo Emulation Videos Are Being Pulled From YouTube

BrintaPap

@FightMikes I have over 40 or 50 physical switch games and 10 or so digital, but why would you assume I would emulate them? Thats just a strawman right there.

I’m planning to use it for gamecube titles that I own physically.

And your “comparison” is really bad, walking with a gun (in public) is forbidden. (most places in the world I reckon) Emulating is just not illegal.
