"more revenue is generated from add/ons and microtransactions than games," I'm sorry but I like the way Nintendo does it. I just can't stand free to play and microtransactions!
@Rayquaza2510 yes I agree with you to a point. I just think that the mature games should be played by mature individuals and not 10 and 12 year olds, but I'm not their parents, it's their parents responsibility.
@twztid13 same here! I literally have wobbly in 64 analog sticks, that never drift or malfunctioned they're dead zone is a little bit wobbly, but they function better than a drifting switch stick! And they are 20 years old!
This is such utter BS! All my controllers with analog sticks from the past work fine except for the switch sticks! Heck go back to an older design if necessary Nintendo, but stop selling the garbage analog sticks!
@TheWingedAvenger I hear what your saying... But I don't think they will be failures... ( Compared to previous gen maybe yes) but it looks more and more like the future is I phone style progressive refreshes.
I wonder how the C buttons are mapped, are they mapped to the second analog stick as just full stick in whichever direction? I love that the NES and super NES controllers are compatible with any random game on switch of course if it has enough buttons for that particular game, but I'm such a dork I would want the Nintendo 64 controller to work with regular switch games as well.
I've been playing lots of different games with the GameCube controller recently with the 8-Bitdo wireless adapter deal that lets any of the Wii U Wii / nunchuck plug controls or original GameCube controllers.
@Heavyarms55 I'm a gamer and movie guy that loves spatial audio, DD 5.1 and now my Dolby Atmos 5.2.4 setup is amazing. There is some audio demos out there that can easily be turned into games if somebody would do it, it's a really weird feeling to be hearing objects fly around the room in a well-built Dolby Atmos set up with sound absorption on the walls. I think it could be done but I don't know if it would be something that could be turned into like a full featured game more like a mini game.
I'm not sure I would be able to play video games if I went blind. It's gotta be very frustrating.
@DDFawfulGuy yeah I was really happy that animal crosses and kept the large text, yeah it may look a little funny on a 92 inch projection screen but damned if I can't read it on any size device LOL.
@ToniPSB Yes. Good info to share. I don't think the comments early in the thread were meant to be mean... But it's a little too dark of humor for this setting...
I seriously think that in high school they need to have a class that has older folks come in that have hearing and site disabilities and whatever other kind of disabilities they can come up with, so people can at least understand the disability and how to interact with them.
I learned a long time ago the best way to interact with somebody that has a disability is to interact with them exactly how you interact with other people at first.
Then let them communicate to me what I need to do to make it easier for them. Otherwise I will do the wrong thing and be condescending and treating them like an idiot basically.
We have two different family friends that have childs with severely limiting mental issues. And yeah they may not be "Smart" like a normal person, but they can sense when they're being talked about or talked over. It's common courtesy and should be taught to talk directly to the disabled person, their caregiver is there and will hear what they need to hear. But it makes the disabled person feel a whole lot better being talked to, instead of being talked around or about. They just don't have the ability to respond in kind. But I know they appreciate it deep down inside.

@N64-ROX it's the sticks. I have cleaned dozens with contact cleaner and replaced 4 or five sticks.... It's a bad design...

Re: Square Enix Is The Next Company To Embrace NFTs And Blockchain Gaming
@DeusX I still don't get it. I guess my problem is I just don't understand owning things that are non-tangible. 😅

Re: Square Enix Is The Next Company To Embrace NFTs And Blockchain Gaming
@DeusX but, the problem is you don't actually own anything...

I'm tired of Nintendo not having items for me to purchase. 🥺🥺🥺
Re: Nintendo Switch Online's N64 Games Need Some Work
@nessisonett I second the upscaling. It's really good. Mario 64 is very clean and cheese looking.
I think Nintendo may tighten up some of the lag issues and such. But... It should be noted, N64 was a bit laggy on many games to begin with.
Re: Random: Yoshi From The Super Mario Series Apparently Have Different Names

Re: Grand Theft Auto Trilogy Reportedly Heading To Switch
It's a no for me... I still don't like the perversion this franchise has.
I really wish they would do a proper Lego GTA game. The game with out all the rated R stuff.

Any word on Sega tweaking or fixing the physics?
Re: Review: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania - Feature-Packed, But Far From Top Banana
@Mauzuri I'm panicking! 😂 I just wish they would take the time to get it right. If I put out poor crap like this at my job I would be fired.
Re: Poll: Do You Use The Black Or White Theme On Your Nintendo Switch?
Switch has a RAM issue. That's why the menu is 720p with almost no features.
We need a switch Pro
Re: Review: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania - Feature-Packed, But Far From Top Banana

Why do they not play test the games? Why do they rush Everything?
