Re: Bayonetta's OG Voice Actor Responds To Online Backlash In Ongoing Dispute

DoubleDate

I was with her all the way but seems like her story is wonky and wobbly. I think she should've resolved this matter in another way. I also cant understand where that 450 million comes from, she doesn't give any clearence as to why she reach to that sum. Maybe she cant release anything due to a huge law suite coming for her. For me she is the best Bayonneta voice but i gues its time to get used to Jennifer Hale's voice. Its a shame cuz her voice made me become a fan of Bayonetta. Maybe she can resolve this issue in the future. I wishe her all the best, but like someone else aboved said, her chances of getting a new job in the VA world seems low. I do agree with her that the industry is powerful.

Re: Feature: From Hypnosis To Farts, What Happened To The Wario We Met 30 Years Ago?

DoubleDate

Wario was one of my most favourite characters in the Nintendo world until Nintendo destroyed his personality. He was great as an antagonist in the 90's, nowdays they made him a comedic clown. Such a shame because he could be an alternate antagonist boss besides Bowser. Imagine a new 3D Mario game where Bowser is not the villain but Wario. I say it was a missed opportunity to create something different.

Re: Hands On: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet's Performance Distracts From Neat New Features And Flourishes

DoubleDate

Dissapointing. How can the Pokèmon company still messing up their main games in 2022🤦 There is no excuse that they cannot create a full Pokémon game like someone else above said Mario Odyssey or something familiar. They are a multi billion dollar company and choose the cheapest way possible. Even Zelda Links Awakening looks better than that. Anyways, lets see how the game will go, maybe the issues that Nintedolife mentioned will be patched when the game gets released. Known the Pokémon company i doubt it, they probably will fix it after players complains comes knocking at their doorstep.

I knew instantly that the article was made by Kate after seeying her Avatar on the frontpage😋 You can't mis it that its her when you see an avatar similiar to her😋

My favo games are farmers RPG, basing on some screen that Kate made this game has some farming elements in it, i wanst interested in any way to check this game out but gonna take a leap and check out what this game has to offer. Games involved with a gacha system is just a big no for me.

Re: NPD Results Show PlayStation 5 Outsold Switch In August (North America)

DoubleDate

The Switch is going to be almost 6 years old, its slowly going to go down, maybe a few buy spikes when The new Zelda releases. The Nintendo switch have done extremely well commercially and will go into history as the second most succesful Nintendo console. I would have bought an Xbone if it was something like the 360 era but unfortunately the Xbone is the worst console of this generation. I tried to look for a PS5 but its sold out everywhere, people do care about the PS5 on the contruary of what others say that no one care. I think its time for Nintendo to think about its next move on the upcoming console, the Switch will not hold forever nearing its 6 years old lifespan.

Re: Japanese Charts: Live A Live Sales Come To Life As This Week's Best-Selling Game

DoubleDate

Great to see that Kirby is still rocking in the charts on every continent since the release in March, lovely game. Cant still wrap my mind how Mario Kart 8 Deluxe can still be that strong despite years after its initial release, its for sure a juggernaut for Nintendo. I do hope that Nintendo dont sleep for years relaying on 8 Deluxe version and we hear something in the near future about Mario Kart 9.

Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 - An Epic, Emotionally-Charged Masterpiece

DoubleDate

This game is nothing like Xenoblade 2, that game was pure torture with the whole Rex whining thing, in my mind i wanted to stop playing but since i paid for it i forced myself to finish it, i sold the game afterwards and looked never back. Xenoblades 3 looks promising, the story is very much different than Xenoblade 2 and the whole continent thing is luckely not in the clouds with giants creatures, another thing that i didn't like about xenoblade 2.

Thanks goodness they got rid off the whole Xenoblade 2 cast, and went in with another fresh new story. I will put hours into this game like i did with Chronicles X. I trully hope that Chronicles X gets a sequel, since its the best open world RPG that i've played.

Re: Feature: Resident Evil Netflix Review: Wesker Steals A Show That Lacks Bite

DoubleDate

I am a big Resident Evil fan, the Netflix show is a huge letdown, exactly what i expected how it would turn out to be. I dont understand why it is so hard for the creators to just do a properly correctly done take on the franchise. Welcome to Raccoon city is done badly as well. 2 opportunities to make something great of the Resident evil universe made into bad adaptions that only has the name Resident Evil on it, if you remove the Resident evil name of it, it would be fun to watch as a standalone new created series or movie. The only one, at least for me that its ok to watch is the 2002 version, the first movie off all the following crappy versions of Milla. I sincerely hope that one day we get a good Resident Evil movie. Somehing like the Gamecube remake, with the characters looking like their game counterparts.

Re: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Release Date And Pricing Revealed

DoubleDate

I'm debatting on wether or not to stop my online subscription, they are getting waay too greedy. If the service was great, with good quality features then it would be a good switch but this in no way is a good way to ramp up the price. For some n64 games and Genesis games? At least make your online subscription better Nintendo, do something about your UI and the lack of games. Add some Gameboy advance and Gamecube games and people may soften to it.

Re: Bloodrayne 1 And 2 Are Getting "ReVamped" On Switch

DoubleDate

If its like the latest one then i guess it will be not for me. A continuation of it in full 3D would be a nicer touch to this series. Fresh bites is an utter dissapointment, i tried hard to like and play the game but i cant continue due how had the movement is. Also the art looks like something from a book, like the story takes place inside a book. Lets hope the next ones will be better to play because o really want to give this series a chance.

Re: Ninjala's Spooky Season Seven Update Is Now Live On Nintendo Switch

DoubleDate

Not to be mean or anything, in no sense its meant to offend anyone who likes this game. Its just a little thing that i have noticed. This game is trying hard to be on par with Splatoon+ Overwatch and Fortnite, as i see some elelements that have been implemented in the others games appearing in this as well. If this game had some RPG stuff in it i would've dived into it since Halloween is my most favourite theme of the year.

Re: Review: BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites - Sheer Bloody Style Atones For Poor Platforming

DoubleDate

Tried this game out. The gameplay is in a kind of way frustrating. The animation movement is out of its way and it takes time to defeat enemies, what makes it a little bit harder to take out enemies. This game could have been much more better if it was made like a 3D scrolling platformer or something like Alice madness returns, it wouldve suited the game much better. The New Warioware game is more entertaining than this game. For me this game is a solid 5/10

Re: Best Nintendo Switch Card Games, Board Games And Deck Builders

DoubleDate

@JasmineDragon

Thanks for the input😊 The RPG element is one of the reasons that made me like Baten Kaitos. The story was great too and i liked the design. Im not a turn based battlecards fan but if the game is not all about cards like Yugi Oh where you are battling constantly enemies with all kind of cards or Heartstone then i may be in for it. If it's like those games then i guess its not for me.

Re: Best Nintendo Switch Card Games, Board Games And Deck Builders

DoubleDate

I know it's not a Nintendo Switch game but the very best card game that i have played is Baiten Kaitos on the Nintendo Gamecube. Such a great game, and the graphics looked fenomenal for it's time. I trully hope that a new game is ever made for the Switch or the Switch succesor. Baten Kaitos together with Windwaker, Mario Sunshine and the Resident Evil remakes are the games that made the Gamecube a fun and enteraining machine to have.

Im gonna give Shadowverse a whirl, hopefully its fun as the editor of this post has commented above.

Re: Review: Dodgeball Academia - Impressive Presentation, But Lacks Depth On Court

Was looking forward to play this game, but after this review i think im not going to bother. The visuals looks nice. Im still looking for some sport game with RPG element in it and thought this game would offer what im looking for. Well, i hope that sport stories will be released any time soon. Mario Golf was a dissapointment, wished it had some RPG play in it.

Re: Random: Beat This Dentist At Smash Bros. Ultimate And Get A "Free Dental Clean"

DoubleDate

@Maxz

Why does it always needs to be a hostile answer? Like insulting someone that he/her lack some education degree due to a simple word. I mean educated people don't go around the internet looking for a flaw to attack someone else.

Anyways, yes people who are going to the dentist are patients. But going to the dentist is not always 100% free. The "patient" needs to pay his/her bills to any insurance company that doesn't cover your full expenses. So you can have your own dentist company but without "customers" your company Isn't goint to make any dime. It Isn't like, that hospitals or any other companies are going to send people to your company , you need to do something so that you have more people visiting and that is what this dentist is doing. Free advertisement and doing something good in return.

@Heavyarms55

Lighten up mate. He's doing it for the community through a way to attract young people. No matter what people try to do, people will always see it with negative light on it. I understand your point, but at least he chooses to do it in a fun way so that his place gets some recognition and also attract more customers. I've even seen video's were people were literally giving money to people who needs it and on the comment section there were people complaining why the need to give money to people, they could go look out for a job instead being given free money. What im trying to say is, it cost nothing to be a person to do good in this dark world.

Re: Random: Have You Seen This Hidden Dialogue In Zelda: Breath Of The Wild?

DoubleDate

I did see that dialogue when i was playing the game. I did everything that could be done in the game except those Yahaha koroks, couldn't fathom it to collect the 900 ones. This is the only Zelda game that i couldn't wait to finish it as fast as i could, most boring Zelda game that i have played. Not saying the game is bad, it doesn't connect to me as one of those Zelda games that you cant wait to see which gadget you would get next. The whole shrine thing was a snooze fest. Other than that, piloting the divine beast was the most fun part in the game at least for me.

Re: Fortnite Copies From Among Us' Homework With New 'Impostors' Mode

DoubleDate

@ShadowWeaver421

Yes its indeed to the parents permisson, but the point is that a lot of parent are not giving a lot of care what childrens play since kids nowdays have Ipads, Phones, Switch. When i was a kid i played all the Resident Evil remakes even without my parents knowing all the games that i played. Parents buy a game system and kids play whatever they want to play since now we are in the digitally gaming era. When games were not digital, you needed to ask your parents to buy you a game, nowdays you just login and buy online credits, for example with Nintendo cards you can buy whatever you want on the gaming system.

Im not saying that its up to their parent to look what their kids do, but as i commented above which kids hasnt played Fortnite. There was even cases where parents needed to pay lots of money because their kids bought stuff without even them knowing, that is what i mean that not every parent is watching their kids 24/7

Re: Fortnite Copies From Among Us' Homework With New 'Impostors' Mode

DoubleDate

@roy130390

I understand your point, kids needs indeed more supervised options but at this day and age we know that kids will defnitely keep doing their own things. We are not talking about toddlers, we are talking about kids from the year 9-13 and then you get the teenage years 15-17. Those kids will play anything that is popular. Fortnite grew today as it is due to all the kids playing it, once as COD was. I dont know if you played online during the time when COD was at its primetime, lots of kids playing it, a game that is suppossed to be played by older players. So you may have well supervised kids, at the end of the day parents will not be 24/monitoring what their kids do. One example, you have a 14 year old daughter/son will you watching 24/7 their actions? Or would you rather that you have your kids safely home playing video games instead going outside doing may Heaven know what? I'd rather have my kids playing games then instead maybe doing things that i as parent dont know what they are doing, hence why parents let their kids play video games, no matter if its intended for older audience or not. Nowdays no one care about it if a game is for older audience unless you are a 5 year old or a 7 year old playing Silent Hill, what im sure many parents will not allow that. For most of the parents Fortnite seems harmless, the colorful game, how the characters looks, parents wouldn't be bothered to even deny their kids playing the game. Its well designed and well crafted to get so much money out of it.

You say if they are spending their money that you dont see the problem, that is my whole point.

Im not referring to the whole gaming world, im referring that for example if a small company would copy any use from their games (Epic) They will not hesistate to sue because they see its as their own and make a lot of money but when they copy something that is popular from another game, Among Us for example then for them its "Okay" Hence why i think that Kate posted this.

As for the microtransactions, companies now very well that is target to certain audiences. There is even a documentairy detailed how developers do this so that players will be motivated to buy things. As i commented above, most adult will not spend much money on microtransactions.

Re: Fortnite Copies From Among Us' Homework With New 'Impostors' Mode

DoubleDate

@roy130390

Yeah sure, like you would be there 24/7 monitoring your kids. Since nowdays its very easy to spend money on certain games. For example V bucks that you can buy almost everywhere. If you are a family and you have kids and know the struggle of how you can keep your kids busy so that you can have some peace, will you prohibit them everything? Exactly. Resident Evil is made for a mature audience yet many people who were young played the games, so its not like every parent in the world will say nah no. It may be made for a certain age yet kids will be playing it whether you like it or not. Same as kids who were playing Mortal Kombat back in the 90s. You are acting like every parent is going to prohibit anything to their kids. Sure its a good idea to keep an eye but your kids are not going to tell you everything they do. If that was the case i think a lot of microtransaction games would be a failure.

I didnt attack anyone in here and seems like people cannot reply in a reasonable way without getting personal.

Those companies know what they are doing or they wouldn't apply such components.

The thing with a full game is, you buy the game and buy the DLC but you dont have many detailed cosmetic packs asking for pricess like €10. New packs ges released, meaning to make more money, that is the difference between them. Im against both though, i would rather have a complete game, then what is missing out instead of making it DLC put it in a sequel. But like micro transactions, the DLC component is the same idea.

And no need to be rude, just be kind. There are many ways nowdays that kids teens can buy credit to spend it in online stores. Many kids get some money to spend in the way they want.

But as i said, Epic is indeed being arrogant because they can copy but oh beware if other companies tries to copy some of any of their games, i can tell you they will deff sue.

Re: Fortnite Copies From Among Us' Homework With New 'Impostors' Mode

DoubleDate

The people who are defending this hot garbage is mind blowing. This game is designed to make young people to spend as much money as possible. Some normal rational adult will not spend much money on this but kids/teens fall for this kind of schemes. People defending it "But you dont have to spend any money on it" Dont see the pattern on why they made so much money. If it were for adults only this game wouldn't never made so much money. Its the same strategy as the game Pokemon Go. Shame that people accept this as the normal thing nowdays. Now those people ( Epic) are arrogant now that they are a billion dollar company. This game came out a few years back and it went to go popular when kids flocked to it and they used that to their advance. Im against micro transactions, since its made like a forrmula: If you dont get it you are missing out. Its the idea how they implemented it.

But regarding the Among us idea. If it was other company that did this and took something from Fortnite, Epic would sue them to Oblivion, that is what i think that Kate is referring to.

Re: Daisy Fans Aren't Happy With The New Mario Golf: Super Rush Update

DoubleDate

Daisy is my most main in every Nintendo related game after Yoshi. Its not the first time this has happened. Nintendo destroyed completely Wario's personality and no one complained about it. Wario used to be a great villain, mean and a good antagonist to Mario. Nowdays its just a brute farting trucker lookalike. Its not really completely out of the blue that Nintendo do this kind of thing.

Re: Japanese Charts: NEO: The World Ends With You Gets Debut Number One, Ace Attorney Takes Third

DoubleDate

The first TWEWY was an ok RPG, a solid game during the DS era. This game is just boring, i tried to get into it, doing the best to try to finish but i just closed the game and im not going to play it again. Its a shame because the first one made you to continue playing to see how the story unfolds. If this game Isn't hitting the shelves hard in Japan, i doubt it will reach the numbers it got during the DS era. Even combined with other consoles it isnt even near what the DS game did (As an commenter above said, this game will attract the player base that played the game during the DS era)

Re: Random: 'Switch Vs Steam Deck' Memes Are A Thing Now, Apparently

DoubleDate

This may appeal to people who doesnt have a high end pc and want to play without the need to have a good graphic card. I do have a high end pc and there Isn't a lot do to. The thing with Nintendo is, that their games are more interesting to play, it brings you i into another world of instead your regular pc shooters, Fifa slap a new year on the front games. The world of Nintendo is more interesting to me than the pc one. Of course there are a few pc games that are good to play. I dont think that the Steamdeck will do any sales damage to the Switch due to the quality of Nintendo games like Zelda, Bayonetta, Mario and so forth. Its an interesting piece of hardware for sure, if done correctly it could have the potential to become another console besides Xbox, Playstation and Nintendo to join the market. I just hope that if its succesful enough, that companies develope games for it, new ideas, new IP.

Re: Nintendo Wins $2.1 Million In Lawsuit Against ROM Website

DoubleDate

Funny how people feel entitled that they should use Nintendo created properties, all work funded and created by their respective owners. Even if the games are old its not the publics work, when you buy a game you are using it for your personal use, that doesn't include that you can go around the Internet and download whatever game you feel like that you want to download. Whenever you like it or not, Nintendo can do what they think is right because they are the owner.

Its like you go to a Phone store and demand that you get for free a Nokia model from 2000 because its "old" or that you go to a video game store and also demand that they give you without payment an old 1989 Gameboy.

The case is, Nintendo has all the right to defend their own created work. If you dont agree that is another case.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl #84 - Pokémon Snap

The USA one is just a swapped out palette of colours upside down of the Japanese one with the Pokemons shuffled into different angle position. The USA is for me the better part.

I fully agree with Kate, Nintendo just released it already. My Switch was doing fine but after playing Monster Hunter rise with the Joycon my Switch is acting by itself now.

Re: Feature: Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Is Secretly One Of The Best Zeldas

Respect for all the hard work and dedication that Kate is doing ^^ . Phantom Hourglass is a lovely game, but for me its not the best Zelda. Majora's Mask is still number one for me, then Oracle of Season/Ages. I hope so much that during the E3 events, Nintendo confirms the remake of both games like the did with A Links Awakening. The game Phantom Hourglass was fun to play, but Spirits tracks was the winner for me for the Ds handheld version.I still have the Spirit tracks full prisma green guide, bought it to have it as a collectors item.

This game series along with Majora's mask are the best Zelda games with the most best experience that i ever had with this franchise. Every time i think of The Legend of Zelda, three games popups in my mind: Ocarina of time, Majora's mask and Oracle of Season/Ages games. I hope so much that Nintendo remake both of them. The idea of the seasons changing was really a great feature. If this game gets a remake i deff wil buy it.

@Electrichead6 I do hope as well that X gets released on the switch. I've spend more than 350 hours playing X, its the most hours that i have invested in a game, for me i couldnt stop playing. The world Mira, was interesting to explore, i spend hours trying to get the best Skells weapons, the rarest one which are hard to get. Im a Zelda fan, BOTW was for the most least Zelda of all the games that came out, i missed a lot the dungeons, the shrine thing was really boring, moving from one place in a huge map to the other place to just finish a Shrine. If the game did have dungeons it would have been the most amazing Zelda game for me. Majora's mask is for me the number 1. I trully hope that Monolith releases Xenonlade X 2.
