Re: Talking Point: Will You Pay $50 For Red Dead Redemption On Switch?

DdG1408

@Dragonite89 PS5 version isn’t even remastered or even upscaled. It is literally the PS3 version. The switch version is not cloud so shouldn’t be bottlenecked and will have full HD so it is much better graphics wise and it includes the dlc which the Ps5 and Xbox versions do not.
Overall considering the price for the outdated one on PS and Xbox $50 is not a bad price for all the extras that will be there. It will also be mobile as well.
Me though, I will wait for a physical version of it and for it to go to $20 bucks or the digital when it hits maybe $15. It is not worth it to me for any of the versions to pay anymore. If I will get it it will be on the switch though, I already own the 360 version that is backwards compatible so I am good on waiting.

Re: The Mario Movie Might Be Appearing On Streaming Services Very Soon

DdG1408

@RetroGames the movie is breaking records because of the name sake not because it is a fabulous movie. In the end most the spin offs will not do anywhere as good and like most movie themes the video game one will be over in a few years.
The movie itself is meh and isn’t even as good as the minions movie and I am an extremely huge Mario fan.
As for coming to streaming it is coming to streaming because almost every movie comes to streaming services 90 days after release at the theaters. Then the physical will be a month or a couple months after that.

Re: FTC Reportedly Wants Info From Nintendo On Call Of Duty Deal (North America)

DdG1408

@Not_Soos @Tober @BaldBelper78 FROM WHAT o got that is correct that the FTC is not a judge so Nintendo can ignore them. For them to send the information they did is good.
What I see though is the FTC is trying to stop this merger and just like congress is trying to get as much little bits of information they can to help them do so. Nintendo has a right to appeal and they did and any information they don’t want subpoenaed if it does go in front of a judge most likely won’t be subpoenaed because it is irrelevant to the case. All the FTC needs to see is that the contract is legit and binding so that Microsoft is forced to go through with it and yesI agree also that Nintendo should not have to release any information until all the other companies have to show their disclosures as well.
To me this looks like we have a bunch of Sony fan boys on the FTC board. Almost every other region is looking at approving this deal as it is now. the FTC is just being babies about it or are being paid off.

Re: Switch eShop Is Hosting A Big Sale On Indie Games Right Now (North America)

DdG1408

@Pillowpants all three good titles. I actually just got around to finishing the Messenger ( make sure you get that free dlc they have also). Hollow Knight is definitely one worth playing through, challenging but an excellent game. Darkest Dungeon is a completely different type of game but that is what makes it an excellent choice as well and the art style of course.
If you like games like Hollow Knight I highly recommend The Mummy Demastered. It is an excellent game as well. Not extremely long maybe about 10hrs but well worth it. Ohh and cannot leave out both Axiom Verge games as well.

Re: Switch eShop Is Hosting A Big Sale On Indie Games Right Now (North America)

DdG1408

@HammerGalladeBro all three of those go on sale all the time now and I would recommend hollow knight to be the first on you buy. So I agree, definitely get that physical of Metroid Prime first, they did an excellent job with it. Also if you’re interested NYXI makes a GameCube controller, it’s 80 usd but it was well worth it I think. I have always loved the GameCubes button setup and with games like smash and primes remake it gives that complete nostalgia feeling too.

Re: Mario Movie Already Set To Be The Highest-Grossing Video Game Film Ever

DdG1408

Who would have thought the most iconic game characters ever would sell more tickets to the movies than anyone else?
This is all crap really. The movie has no real story and is literally all over the place like a freaking 2 hr long ad. The only reason it is selling so good is because of the names. I’ll guarantee a sequel will flop by expectation standards.

Re: Mario Movie Just The Beginning Of Nintendo & Illumination's "Rewarding Collaboration"

DdG1408

The Mario Movie is really lame. Only hardcore fans and kids that cannot out sentences together enjoyed it. It is nothing but a big ad for Nintendo with no substance at all and very poor casting.
The only thing that was even remotely good was the animation.
Sega at least listened to their fans about Sonic and it was a hit all around. Mario, it’ll end up with a 65 rating tops.

Re: Nintendo Is Officially Done With Kirby's 30th Anniversary Celebrations

DdG1408

Yea, Nintendo games don’t get to cheap usually. Keep an eye out and you’ll find a couple sales or a good second hand one on eBay even or sites like it. They are both great games so definitely give them a try. Like I said though you can give them a try with the NSO online also. They have the first one on the nes and 2nd on gameboy there. They also have the ones for the Super Nintendo and the ones on N64 as well. So basically get most of the series right there, of course gotta realize they are older games but still fun to play.

Re: Ex-Nintendo Host Kit Ellis Says We May Find Out Why Nintendo's Skipping E3 "Sooner Rather Than Later"

DdG1408

@CircuitWrangler3 @CircuitWrangler3 @CircuitWrangler3 first of all the switch is way more gimmicky than the WiiU. The WiiU sold horribly because of marketing reasons not because of gimmicks or competition.
As for competition none of them need E3 to compete at all in todays age which is why they are leaving it. They are seeing the same and even bigger numbers by holding their own showcases and they are able to have more of them as well. Nintendos directs alone gets almost 2x’s more views than they have gotten at e3. Competition is good but e3 doesn’t bring competition and the competition it does bring is startup companies which Nintendo even welcomes themselves but that’s a good thing. I never said e3 or competition was bad, I said the big three do not need e3

Re: Ex-Nintendo Host Kit Ellis Says We May Find Out Why Nintendo's Skipping E3 "Sooner Rather Than Later"

DdG1408

@SportyMarioSonicMix actually the last e3 with Nintendo Nintendo got only 3.1 million views. This last direct Nintendo had they got over 5.1 million views. If you take away Nintendo, don’t and Xbox viewship then e3 is nothing more than a pc showcase with about the same number of views as all the others.
Now there is nothing wrong with that at all but my point stands.

Re: Dead Cells' 'Return To Castlevania' DLC Is Apparently 'The Biggest Yet'

DdG1408

@SpringDivorce @ParadoxFawkes @MarioBrickLayer I would just go ahead and pick it up like Paradox said but I would wait for a sale. It goes on sale all the time so you can get it for under 30 with all dlcs or even under 10 for the base game. I recommend getting it though.there is so much to do and you will be ready for the new dlc’s when they come.
I myself waited for a complete version and got the one for Switch physically and now there are like 3 other dlc’s zzz. I went ahead and bought the rest of them and am hoping they will come out with a complete version once they are done adding dlc’s
Ohh and if you have an Xbox it is on gamepass with all dlc’s as well. Game data does not transfer so just a warning there but if you have gamepass or have or get gamepass pc you can at least try the game and see if it would be something you would dive into. It is how I started playing that and deaths door.

Re: Video: New Switch Hardware Won't Stop Bad Ports

DdG1408

@Wexter it wasn’t the strategy that crushed all of those systems actually. The N64 and Gamecude had issues with developers putting their games on the systems due to hardware (cartridges and mini disks). As for the Wii U it failed due to marketing. The Wii U GameCube and 64 all were better systems than the competition but yet failed only because of poor planning.

Re: Video: New Switch Hardware Won't Stop Bad Ports

DdG1408

Considering the ps5 and Xone are not at all living up to their potential if a new switch comes out it will be on par or almost on par to them. If you think about it both the 5 and series X are both being held back by prior gen systems first of all and second most companies are not utilizing the full specs anyway. I see no problem with a new switch model keeping up.

Re: Assassin's Creed Anniversary 'Mega Bundle' Includes Six Games, Out Now On Switch

DdG1408

Separately they do not have the DLC except for 2 and 3 that I know of.
Also when they go on sale I would expect the rest to go on sale as well.
Third I will just play them on my Xbox with my 360 games and get just as good of graphics.
Don’t get me wrong I love my switch and once this is cheap enough I may get it possibly but I am a physical game collector and there is no reason to spend 100 on this when I already own them physically.
Now if UBI releases a physical version I would definitely buy it even if it was 150. I am will to pay for a 5 game slotted case and 5 cartridges with everything on them.

Re: Fired Nintendo Employee Comes Forward With An Account Of Their Dismissal

DdG1408

First of all you are a contractor so Nintendo is not your employer, Nintendo is the employer of your employer. They literally have nothing to do with you.
Second I lost any and all consideration of any claim that was made when they stated they had suicidal thoughts after being denied to have their name put on the Smash credits. I mean Really? That is sorry to say it but if that’s the case you should have been seeing a therapist long before. So I’m reality you are lashing out because you didn’t get your way. You also tweeted about a project you were working on regardless of if any information detailing it was giving or not you still did it which is against any non disclosure form that you signed. In a ND you cannot talk about whatever it is at all and that includes even making the statement that you did. All you could have legally said was I am working on something for Nintendo. That is it literally.
This whole thing will go nowhere including all the other complaints as well because they are all contractors and do not actually work for Nintendo.

Re: Nvidia Employee Comment Confirms Chip Rumoured To Be Used In 'Switch Pro' Is Real

DdG1408

@NintendoKnight I k ow this is a couple days late but Nintendo still has 2 years left on the switch, that will make the 7 year window. As for a switch 2 it will probably be more like the DS series was and be upgraded but still play all the older games as well as the newer games and in better graphics and most likely be 1440p or 2160. Full 4K is probably not going to happen on the handheld but maybe through a new dock. One last thing they may do is upgrade the cloud based gaming. If anyone gets this down pat first it will be Nintendo or Microsoft. Right now cloud gaming is pretty unstable and unreliable as for lag and connecting.
This is all I am expecting with the cloud gaming being a huge plus if they can and do make it flawless and honestly I am perfectly fine with it as long as they keep up the pace to give other devs the ability to put their games on it easily like they are now.
