@Tasuki they have contacts for individual games, they were never a full time Nintendo employee. Contacts not being renewed is not the same as being fired.
@NinjaWaddleDee Well it shouldn't be the first comment because it just derails the whole thread into a Festivus like grievance outpouring over Pokemon in general.

Re: Anniversary: Paper Mario First Unfolded On N64 25 Years Ago
This article should be deleted for making me feel old 😭
Re: Talking Point: Where On Earth Are The Switch 2 Soundtracks On Nintendo Music?
Nintendo has decades of music to choose from. I'm not really that fussed as long as there are constant releases.
Re: Nintendo Announces New 'Hello, Mario!' App For Switch And Mobile Devices
@StuTwo Yes. I hunted FOREVER for quality wooden toys for my niece.
Re: Nintendo's Share Price Is Now Double The Height Of The Wii Era
@Coalescence Exactly. People expecting noble intentions and put Nintendo on this pedestal, I don't know what world they live in.
Re: Review: Chillin' By The Fire (Switch 2) - Novel Camera Integration, But Won't Set Your World Alight
How did the have to pay for this to be in the partners direct and not the Indie ???
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Is Laser-Targeting Your Toddlers With This New 'My Mario' Line
@Suketoudara Kids can like more than one thing. My nephews like both Minecraft and Mario.
If they liked Roblox, I'd sadly have to disown them.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Playable Demo Appearing At Two Upcoming Events
I wanna going in blind on this one, I got spoiled so much with the last Legends.
Re: The Pokémon Company Releases New Mobile App 'Pokémon Events'

Re: Timberland Is Teaming Up With Sonic On A New Range Of Boots And Clothing
LOL. I thought it was the DJ for a second. I don't wanna hear Sonic sing Apologize.
Re: Surprise! Nintendo Announces Indie World Showcase For Thursday 7th August 2025
@Jack_Goetz LOL, no there's not.
Re: Feature: What We Expect From Nintendo For Super Mario Bros.' 40th Anniversary
I expect sadly sweet F all tbh.
Re: Octopath 0 Is A Game-Key Card On Switch 2, And Square Enix Has "No Plans" For A Switch 1 Upgrade Option
@Cipher36 LOL. That whole rant and you still don't get Nintendo can't tell Square what to do.
Re: Octopath 0 Is A Game-Key Card On Switch 2, And Square Enix Has "No Plans" For A Switch 1 Upgrade Option
Some of the comments I've seen floating around online about this are INSANE.
What exactly do you want Nintendo to do? Hold a gun to Square Enix's head?
Re: Animal Well Is Getting A Gorgeous New Physical From Lost In Cult
For whatever reason they had Limited Run's version as a online only preorder at Big W (Department store in Australia) so I got it then.
Amazing game.
Re: Review: Tales Of The Shire: A The Lord Of The Rings Game (Switch) - The Hobbit, Or "There It Crashed Again"
Why does it look like when I try to play the Sims on an almost 10 year old laptop?
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Blast Corps
Japanese all the way.
Re: Ubisoft Reportedly Cancels Star Wars Outlaws Sequel

Please a physical copy 🙏

Nate hasn't been 100% correct on anything in years, he's a has-been who at some point did have sources but clearly doesn't now.
Re: Toad And Toadette's New Voice Actors Have Been Confirmed
@Tasuki they have contacts for individual games, they were never a full time Nintendo employee. Contacts not being renewed is not the same as being fired.
Re: The New Pokémon Theme Park Is Looking Rather Lovely
@ParrakerriRush Well the Japanese won't trash their own park.
Having worked in tourism for years I could name some countries but I won't cause people will just feel attacked.
Re: Pokémon Presents July 2025: Every Announcement, Full Livestream
@Suketoudara They are never happening, it might be Gen 1 if we are lucky. I'm pretty sure it's a Game Freak edict, not a Nintendo one.
Re: Princess Peach's New Voice Actor Has Been Confirmed
I've never understood why Nintendo is so hush hush when the characters voice maybe 3 complete sentences in a game like Mario Kart.
Never mind the fact the majority of fans don't even notice the change nor care who voices them in the first place.
Re: Gender Split & Average Ages Of Japanese Nintendo Players Revealed Via New Survey
Grabbing a good share of both younger people and adults who loved it as younger people.
I know they hate the comparison but that's Disney numbers.
Re: UK Charts: Donkey Kong Bananza Is A Hit, But Sells Less Than Half Of Super Mario Odyssey
Poor DK will never be as popular as Mario and people need to get over that.
It's a fabulous game. That's all that matters in the end.
Re: Pokémon Is Teasing Something Ahead Of Next Week's Showcase
@NinjaWaddleDee Well it shouldn't be the first comment because it just derails the whole thread into a Festivus like grievance outpouring over Pokemon in general.
Re: Random: Pikachu Statue Saved From The Trash Was From 'The First Movie' Premiere
Anyone with that kind of disgusting name associated with a character for children is never a good person.
Re: Nintendo's Switch Online Playtest Program Returning, Includes Switch 2 Support
Interesting. I'm sure the usual suspects online will moan & complain as expected.
Re: My Nintendo Store Adds A New Donkey Kong Bananza Reward (North America)
Nice design on the towel.
Re: "Somewhat Mixed" - Digital Foundry Delivers Its Technical Analysis Of Donkey Kong Bananza
Digital Foundry once again shows how better the gaming world would be without PC people in it.
Re: Rumour: Major Third-Party Devs Reportedly Sitting On Multiple Switch 2 Announcements
Ooh. I'm dreaming but I'd love some exclusives or timed exclusives nobody knows about.
Re: Square Enix Rules Out Switch 2 "Upgrade Path" For Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake
I bet it can be and knowing Square they are just being cheap as usual.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Director Acknowledges Performance Drops: "We Prioritized Fun And Playability"
But a reflection in a puddle should look like a mirror!

Re: The FBI Has Seized A Switch ROM Site As Part Of A 'Law Enforcement Operation'
Don't steal current gen games. It's simple as that.
Re: DK Bananza Devs "Needed To Know More About Donkey Kong," So They Went To Miyamoto
This is another great example of why Nintendo is smart not to get into what the others do, buy and then in time, close multiple studios.
You lose all that knowledge.
Re: Nintendo Will Discontinue Switch Game Vouchers Entirely In 2026
Never used them and know nobody that ever did. No great loss imo.
Re: First 4 Figures Unveils Sonic The Hedgehog Title Screen, Pre-Orders Now Live
For that much Sonic should talk and move his hand.
Re: Nintendo's Summer Deals Discounts Multiple Physical Switch Titles, Save Up To $20 (US)
Where are sales for countries not going to hell in a handbasket Nintendo?
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Another Legendary Zelda Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
I love this app and I don't understand some people's hatred for it.
Re: Mega Man Is One Of Capcom's "Most Important IPs" Despite No New Games In 7+ Years
To quote The Brady Bunch Movie:
"Sure, Jan"
It's sad how little they do with Megaman.

"Don't you say you love me, you don't even know me..."
