Doesn't bother me if they hold up on not. I still play past games just for the sake of playing them.

@denjinx5 Hmmm... So what what you're saying is I can sell a modded Switch for triple the price?

New Era, Meh energy.

When you wish upon a star,
Dreams come true!

@Polvasti @Pillowpants Both of you underestimate the GB's true power.

Had something like this ran on real GB hardware, it would display the cutscenes in all their all glory... for about 2 seconds before catching fire and blowing up.

@Speedo What's not to get? Review outlets and players both pointed out various issues with Battlefront. Anyone would be frustrated paying for a defective product.

I'd say take closer look at that Bowser guy for leaks. I'll never fathom how he became president of the company given his history as a tyrant who kidnaps young maidens.

@gcunit No worries. I saw Miyamoto hoarding 1up Mushrooms.

Luigi owned a mansion and lost it all. A tragic tale of lies, greed, and power.

@Dinglehopper No kidding. Alot of that AI art is generic too. Looks lifeless, and has an uncanny valley to it. Especially the hyper realistic ones. Don't know. AI art just looks very unimaginative most of the time.

Besides, AI art to me can't replicate the emotional attachment to art itself. Can't explain why, but to use an example here; Nine years ago a friend of mine drew a picture of two characters from my favorite childhood tv show.

She didn't know anything about the show except for the things I told her, yet she took time out of her day to spend a month drawing a picture for me. One of the best gifts I ever got.

9 years later I returned that favor. Granted I'm no artist myself, however I went out and hired one. I explained in detail what visual image I had in my head, and why each of detail was important. Final product exceeded those exceptions, and felt special. When I gave it to her, she was overjoyed.

Honestly, I'm not artist myself, so alot of info I get comes from various artists who passionately explain their dislike of AI art. So, I sympathize with them.

Just based on the images that plague the internet now personally look terrible enough for me to not care for AI art in general.

The last non-Pokemon game I recall from GF was "Tembo the Bada** Elephant".

Had a blast.

@RainbowGazelle How's your visit so far? What prompted the extended stay? What's street pass? What's a 3DS? Where's Waldo?

@Snatcher @DarkTron Didn't know I was trying to bait anyone. What I did know was me poking fun at AI art though.

@smithyo I can't say I agree with that take on BOTW. One of the problems with open worlds games is the plot urgency takes a backseat to freedom, which in turn can affect the overall weight of a story.

But that's just me. Open world games fail to engage because I lose interest due to freedom. It also makes giggle when I think about the absurdness of it all.

Like you introduce a end of the world threat, and said threat just sits there while you're goofing off for hours. It can be quite easy to forget there is even a story sometimes with open world games.

I did this quite alot with BOTW. Even still, the more interesting story of BOTW already happened 100 years ago. I found that story more engaging than the one BOTW told.

BOTW personally to me was just alright.

Hmm...6 years ago an rpg titled Dragon Quest: Echoes of an elusive age was released for the Switch. Some years later the main character was a guest Star in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. also for the Switch.

It's all connected.

@Qwiff I don't think @JohnnyMind meant anything by it. FPS is just an umbrella term we have for most things with a first person perspective.

Alot of games in alot of categories we put them into don't exactly fit 100%. It's just easier to label many a certain way vs creating hundreds of different labels for each specific case.

Dang, was the Switch at least running on the Switch 2?

Now Zelda must rescue Link who will go on to rescue Zelda afterwards. Only for Link needing to be rescued again by Zelda, who then needs to be rescued by Link once more. Leading Link needing to be rescued a third time by Zelda, in which Link then proceeds to rescue Zelda.

@Vil Wait, you actually read the article? I heard legends of people doing such a thing, but thought it a myth.

You are proof the legends are real. For that, I am forever grateful.

I say good on Nintendo. But it shouldn't stop there. Take down fan artwork, fan fiction, fan cosplay.

You will enjoy Nintendo's products the "correct" way or suffer the consequences.

All hail Nintendo!

@Spider-Kev I thought stashing game cartridges in your underwear was commonplace.

@babyThorman He looks normal. It's all in your head.

@stevep I have a dark gun you can borrow.

@axelhander We say "lesser of evils" as way to accept that even if the lesser is bad, it's not as worst as the worst bad.

Evil itself is just evil. However, there is different tolerances of "evil" society accepts for the sake of comfort and convenience. In this case, Nintendo is "evil", but when compared to the worst offenders, Nintendo is easier to live with.

I'm the same way when it comes to perfectionism. I spent a whole day making sure a picture frame was placed evenly on a wall.

Just 1 nanometer off was enough to frustrate me.

60$ is far too low. Double the price and Nintendo's got a deal!

"And so came the great purge came to be. Nintendo sensing fans were modding games and having fun, sent their dark underlings to punish them."

@JohnnyC The figures are way overpriced for what little use you get out of them anyways.

When Skywayrd Sword came out, Nintendo actually locked a QoL feature behind a 20-30€ figurine.

@Sourcecode

"Hands On: Nintendolife Is A Love Letter To Nintendo"

@JohnnyMind Well if Sega is serious about what they've planned for the future, a remake just might happen.

@Pillowpants Hey, first off my apologies for the late reply.

I wasn't trying to make any point at all. Just merely an observation to the section of the article about people feeling put off by this re-release of a 3 year old game.

You are correct it's double the size. However, it's a still a 3 year old game you are re-purchasing at full price just to get that extra content. It's only naturally people will a certain way about paying re-purchasing the base game just to experience the additional content.

Let's say you are one the few who went out your way to own the game right before the announcement. Well now, you essentially would have to pay extra to get the better version.

It would be one thing if this new content was sold as separate DLC for Switch owners for a cheaper price, with QoL improvements being free to download.

That's all my comment is, just a simple "Eh..."

Eh, games barely 10 years old are getting "remasters", "definitive" or whatever label that can be slapped on to justify charging full price for the same, yet slightly improved experience.

It is what it is.

@Spider-Kev Yeah, but that's your personal opinion. Calling a man lame brain on the basis you didn't find his work personally enjoyable despite the fact many of them have been highly received is weird.
Why even name call him a name anyways? What was the point of it?

Well that's depressing.

@tseliot A second video game crash eh? Sounds delightful!

@JohnnyMind Switch couldn't handle the remakes even if it was a barebones port.

@-wc- Honestly, if youtube is to be believed, "woke" critics trashed Mario and called it a dumpster fire of failure.

If you actually read reviews however, most critics agreed it's an average film, and nothing more.

I believe that he believes it.

@Olrun Yeah, I feel like the jump was too soon. But nothing first part outside a few Nintendo games has impressed me at all this gen.

I wish innovation wasn't so hard, because we could use some AAA games that are unconventional.

@RubyCarbuncle No, the NDF is not out in full force. It's just how things are. Some people in the community think they are entitled to do what they please with licensed property.

Surprise, they aren't. You don't have to agree with it, but it's Nintendo's right to remove stuff that belongs to them. If you don't like that fact, create something that is originally yours.

NDF applies when Big N is actually doing something anti-consumer. This nothing more than a company claiming rights to their own property from people who using it without consent.

If you want to use the models, then ask Nintendo. Oh that's right, you won't. You won't because you know the answer will be a big "No".

@Pillowpants Tried to use printer. Sadly, Paper Jam...

@GravyThief Middle-Earth enterprises is the sequel to LoTR.

After the one ring was destroyed, Embracer purchased the rights to the land of Mordor. Eventually they took over all of Middle-earth.

Not even the combined powers of Gandalf and Aragorn could stand against the might of Embracer's legal team.

@FatWormBlowsASparky I was thinking Pin-ups of the T-Rex. Those gorgeous reptilian thighs should be on display for all to behold.

@Donutman As a retired survivalist, I can attest that short shorts and a tank top are appropriate gear when traversing through dense jungles.

@smithyo Shorty after the removal of digital pin-up posters from a remaster of a 30 year old game, that's when the riots broke out. Civil war among various citizens across various nations.

Governments declared a state of emergency, men in uniform to tame the unrest and end the violence. But alas, it was for naught.

Then the missiles came, leveling entire cities. In a panic, billionaires fled to their underground bunkers. Hiding like frighten children as the world around them crumbled.

These events took place yesterday. Those of us who survived created isolated societies. We bore children in hopes of one day undoing our mistake.

Our mistake of removing Pin-Up posters from a 30 year old game.

@somnambulance Triangle Strategy was ported to Windows PC. It's no longer an exclusive.

@TheBoilerman I'm already not much a fan of medieval setting in general. But this game does sound boring.

@HammerKirby Personally, I'm okay with Nintendo games being easy or mildly challenging. In a Market where the only other big two are Microsoft and Sony, it's nice to have an avenue that still caters more to families and young audiences.

@TYRANACLES They did bring back Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess. Both received an HD remaster. Only thing to do is port to both to the switch and charge full price for it.
