Damn...looks like no hope for Nintendo to win best family game...

I just don't get the logic behind this. I can't think of a single logical reason as to why these games consistently get banned, and even if you could argue that it's justified worse games have made it through.

Have they no consistency?

@Fandabidozi
...real funny...

Cat lady for Smash?

...nah, that joke's too cringeworthy even for me...

Expected. IP theft is no joke. The only franchise I can think of who would let anything like this happen without at least trying to take it down would be Transformers, and that's a rarity.

Did someone say GODMASTERS?!

(I've been waiting years to make a Transformers joke on this website. That's another one off the bucket list.)

...I've really got to buy the original.

Probably will get it at launch. I'm eager to see how the downloadable games will work.

XCX and/or XC1 on the Switch please. Either or. Just need more Xenoblade in my life. XENOBLAAAAAAAADE!

Also, if you're gonna remaster XC1, maybe re-add the Bionis Shoulder?

Can you PLEASE just add Switch stuff too Nintendo? Why not?

...geez, the plot thickens.

How the hell did we even end up here? Since when is violence okay but sexuality is not? At this point I'm genuinely baffled at how society has turned out.

@Knuckles-Fajita Seconded. Never played a Yakuza game, but a Switch port would be oh so sweet.

ODYSSEY! E-YESSY! OSYDDEY! E-YESSY!

It's simple; pay for your games. You want them to keep making games? Keep paying for said games. Same goes for any media. You want Metroid Prime to be the only Metroid game for another ten years?

This is the kind of artstyle that could theoretically get me back into Pokemon. Been burned out since X & Y, and none of the games since have interested me. If they fix the artstyle, the story and start using modern full-console conventions (such as open worlds, maybe voice acting; basically do a Breath of the Wild type thing where they buck the trends) then maybe, just maaaaaybe, I'll get back into it.

@MasterJay Not sure how it would be considered 'dumb'. I mean the Switch supports up to 12 players. It could work.

...huh? Really? You're not clowning me?

Well...okay then...guess the Switch is about to get a lot more users, because of the portability aspect.

Will it have in-person multiplayer though?

So...is this an unlicensed figure? If so, lawyers be a-coming.

"Here comes Link to slice off your head.
And here comes a lawyer to fill you with dread"

(Edit: first attempt at the rhyme failed. Fixed)

Oh sure, because THAT'S CANON!

Honestly I'm actually excited for this...but I want to finish XC1 again before replaying XC2.

Hang on a second, that guy sampled the Botanic Sage mashup version of Honeycomb Highway...

...and they thought someone wouldn't notice.

Huh, it's John Bailey. The guy for Honest Trailers. Neat.

Wow, Korg did this? My band leader uses an actual Korg at gigs, and the sound he can get out of the thing is amazing. I'm eager to hear how this will turn out.

Are people still mad about the swindling Kickstarter money? I personally don't care for the controversy, but it seems as if people have quieted down, which is nice.

@Deku-Scrub Agreed. Bring in the rest of the Nintendo franchises too. I want to see Samus' armour and maybe even Shulk's costume.

Bugger. Already sold out while I was at work.

Damn. If anyone knows where I can get a USB copy, let me know.

@CapricornDavid But Nintendo thought they could take them...away from us.

But will the Ardainians have their battle cries back?

YOU ARE TEARING ME APART LISA!

Wait...wrong room.

@JayJ Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

@JayJ I was just saying that usually these comment threads are filled with that.

I still kinda want the game, but it's something to keep in mind. Art sometimes has to be separated from the artist.

@JayJ Really? Hm...I have to look into that.

EDIT: They seem to have an article right here. It seems it can be taken either way.

https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2017/11/tiny_metal_director_accused_of_scamming_kickstarter_backers_to_fund_game

Nobody seems to be mentioning the fact that the developers stole money from another kickstarter to make this game, leaving tonnes of RPG fans with empty wallets. Usually that's all anyone says in these comment threads.

I saw the word 'Aegis'...couldn't resist.

I will be severely disappointed if you don't get to play as Stain.

ALL YOU HAD TO DO IS AVOID THE DAMN CUCCOS CJ!

Poi?

So...do I get a free upgrade for the 3DS version? Mine's currently off for repairs so I can't check.

Also Gamestop sucks. Our version is much better. Praise EB!

@tsm7 @MitchVogel
For you guys it might be easy, but finding an Australian copy (or European) is quite hard. It was very limited over here at least.

HELL YEAH! Only played it once, but getting a physical copy would be pretty damn neat.

What would be better though is finding a copy of the 3D remaster that isn't $90.

'Tries'

I still need Mega Man and Peach. Still, no stock issues in Australia so they're not going anywhere.

So long as the microtransactions aren't intrusive, I'm fine. If there's a way to summon a certain amount of times per day without spending a cent, I'm fine.

I mean hey, I've managed with badge arcade. How bad could it be?

Probably will be for the mobile game. I know they haven't done a mobile presentation before, but it might be a good way to reveal it.

I already own the special edition, so no need for this at all. But, for those who don't own it, it'd be better in high-def.

Now...gotta actually finish. I'm still on Birthright (got busy and forgot about it in favour of Ace Attorney and Xenoblade).

Heh...heh heh...hooray for living in a country that doesn't have Amiibo stock issues...
