I'll never understand why actors/actresses are constantly sought for input into issues that have nothing to do with acting. Makes about as much sense as reporting on the opinions of your local butcher and taxi driver.
He said this in a video interview the other day. It was clearly meant purely hypothetically though. Not as any kind of serious intent of Square as a company.
If you haven't played XC2 yet, you should definitely wait and play XC1 first. While they say they're completely independent games, that was a bit of a white lie on Nintendo's part. XC1 does inform certain things that happen in XC2.
Well I just hope it doesn't lead them to straying too far from the strategy battle side of things and into the social sim stuff. That's where pretty much all of the innovation has been in Fire Emblem in recent years. It's fine as it is, but I wouldn't want them to go any further in that direction. Get back to improving the battle aspects in future games please.
You don't really get to choose who your competitors are. The audience chooses that. If I'm going to buy either a PS5 OR an Xbox Series X, then you are competitor with Sony.

Re: Capcom's Former GameCube Exclusive Resident Evil 4 Is Reportedly Getting A Remake
If they just improve the visuals, then that's great. If they actually try to mess with anything else, they're bound to make it worse.
I'd prefer a proper remake of Code Veronica in the style of these last 2 remakes.
Re: Controversial "Adults Only" Murder Simulator Hatred Is Coming To Nintendo Switch
No interest at all in playing it, but I'm glad that Nintendo are allowing a wide range of stuff onto the platform.
Re: China Bans Sales Of Animal Crossing: New Horizons In Suspected Censorship Scuffle
@Noid
So when are you gonna move to China then?
Re: China Bans Sales Of Animal Crossing: New Horizons In Suspected Censorship Scuffle
In the words of one great man: "Dont trust China. China is”
Re: New Games Could See Delays As Japanese Rating Organisation CERO Temporarily Shuts Down
Xenoblade has already been rated, right?
Re: "They're Burying Pokémons" Jibe During Chinese Coronavirus Tribute Causes Uproar In France
I'm very outraged about this thing that did happen. And therefore I am superior.
Re: A New SteamWorld Game Is Now In Development From Image & Form
Dig 3D would be interesting.
Re: WayForward Doesn't Plan To Release DLC For Shantae And The Seven Sirens
Lol does this count as news? The absence of something happening?
Re: Shantae And The Seven Sirens Sets Course For Switch This May, New Details Revealed
Why does it cost so much more than the previous games, despite not looking any better than the last one?
Re: Random: Watch Isabelle And The Doom Slayer Rip And Tear In This Incredible Fan-Made Animation
Best thing my eyes have seen since the new Xenoblade trailer.
Re: Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy Might Be Released On Switch Next Week
@Reigestugatensho
It's completely different to KOTOR, but definitely a great game!
Re: Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy Might Be Released On Switch Next Week
@Kochambra
I never got round to playing it!
Re: Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy Might Be Released On Switch Next Week
Everyone needs to play this. Easily one of the best Star Wars wars games. Up there with KOTOR and Fallen Order.
Re: Random: Brie Larson Says She's More Than Happy To Be In An Animal Crossing Movie
I'll never understand why actors/actresses are constantly sought for input into issues that have nothing to do with acting.

Re: Talking Point: Jargon-Heavy Xbox Series X And PS5 Reveals Vindicate Nintendo's Approach
Alternatively you could say Nintendo don't go with this approach because a thousand developers would immediately comment how weak the hardware is.
Re: Amazon Mexico Lists May Launch For Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition
Well I hope that's not the cover art.

Most of their ads are Google Ads. If you think something is a scam, complain to Google.
Re: Nintendo's New York Store Makes "Difficult Decision" To Close Its Doors To Prevent The Spread Of COVID-19
Good decision. I'm glad I don't live in a place like NYC in a time like this.
Re: Sounds Like CD Projekt Red Is Already Working On Its Next Witcher Game
I'd love a game in the same world but with Ciri as the main character.
With her powers, the gameplay could be pretty darn interesting.
Re: Switch Is Getting A New "Action Epic" To Follow Fortnite And Splatoon In 2020
You sure it's not just that Ninjala thing? Sounds kinda similar.
Re: DOOM Eternal Will Let You Customise The DOOM Slayer, Even As A Unicorn
Kinda pointless in a first person shooter, where you mostly just see your hands.
Re: Graph Shows All Nintendo Switch Game Metascores Over Three Years
Steamworld Heist got 91? It's a great game no doubt, but that's a bit much.
Re: The First Animal Crossing: New Horizons Review Is In
Didn't Famitsu give Final Fantasy 13 50/50?
Re: Square Enix's Yoshinori Kitase Would Like To Remake Final Fantasy V
He said this in a video interview the other day. It was clearly meant purely hypothetically though. Not as any kind of serious intent of Square as a company.
Re: Nintendo PlayStation Sells For Significantly Less Than Was Previously Offered
@DinnerAndWine
Lol that's someone who complains for living.
Re: The Company Responsible For E3 2020's Creative Direction Just Resigned
It's over 3 months away. Silly to make any decisions this far in advance.
I guess the only trouble is for people who have to buy plane tickets.
Re: PlatinumGames Was "Really Terrified" The Wonderful 101 Kickstarter Wouldn't Be A Success
Wasn't the first goal like 30K or something? Almost no chance of not reaching that.
Re: Katie Casper Resigns From Her Position At Nintendo Of America "After Nearly Six Years"
Never heard of her. Is this really 'news' or are you guys just struggling without the Direct like the rest of us?
Re: Nintendo Named And Shamed As Benefiting From The Use Of Chinese Forced Labour Camps
The Chinese government response sounds like some Bond villain euphemisms.
Re: Gallery: Another Huge Batch Of Animal Crossing: New Horizons Screenshots Appears
They've really nailed the visuals in this game. The whole thing comes together so nicely.
Re: Poll: Vote For Your Favourite Fire Emblem Games
@nessisonett
I bet if you ask people to give each game a score out of 10, it will give you a different outcome than this approach does.
Re: Poll: Vote For Your Favourite Fire Emblem Games
This is slightly rigged due to the difference in sales figures. The 2 games that sold the most are the most popular.
Re: Events: EGX Rezzed 2020 Returns To The UK Next Month
@antdickens
Cool, that's slightly reassuring them, from the point of view of my general distrust and dislike of monopolies.
Re: Events: EGX Rezzed 2020 Returns To The UK Next Month
@antdickens
So what's the deal with the "Partner of the Gamer Network" at the bottom of the page, and the links to all of the sites they own?
Re: Events: EGX Rezzed 2020 Returns To The UK Next Month
Does this 1 company own all of the gaming media in the UK?
Re: ESRB Rating Appears Online For Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition Gets Rated In South Korea
@TechaNinja
If you'd played the game, you'd know it's a bit of a spoilerish description.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition Gets Rated In South Korea
@NintendoByNature
The only game in the whole series you've tried was a DLC expansion?
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition Gets Rated In South Korea
You might want to reconsider that description Liam: "chronicles the adventures of Shulk and Fiora"
Re: Gallery: The Witcher 3 Looks Stunning On Switch Thanks To Its Latest Update
Lol "blurry-eyed aficionado" made me laugh.
Re: The Witcher 3 Switch Dev Saber Interactive Snapped Up By THQ Nordic Parent Company
How much money does THQ Nordic have? They seem to have bought a lot in the last 5 years.
Re: PlatinumGames Will Share A "Major" Announcement Next Week
Direct on the 27th it is then? It's surely got to be Bayonetta 3.
Re: New Report Claims Coronavirus Will Cause Switch Shortages In The US And Europe
Right, I'm definitely gonna stop eating bats now.
Re: After Being Review-Bombed, AI: The Somnium Files Is Now The Highest User-Rated Switch Game On Metacritic
User scores are only really helpful if you can prove you've actually bought it.
Re: It Looks Like There'll Be A Demo For The Trials Of Mana Remake
Good! I never played the original.
Re: Chucklefish Rolls Out Its Free Double Trouble Expansion For Wargroove
I refuse to play it until that character with green hair is voiced by a real person with green hair.
Re: Random: What If Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Looked Like Link's Awakening On Switch?
I'd rather just see what Breath of the Wild 2 will look like.
Re: Xbox Boss Doesn't See Nintendo As A "Main Competitor" In The Next-Gen War
You don't really get to choose who your competitors are. The audience chooses that.
If I'm going to buy either a PS5 OR an Xbox Series X, then you are competitor with Sony.
