@Banjo- People seem to forget that If there is something that bothers you you should not discuss it publicly on Twitter but talk directly to the people that are responsible for it in your company. If I was the person responsible for hiring a studio for a new game I would surely hesitate as well and not trust the ones who talked sh** about me on Twitter.

I‘d say that numbers would at least go down, I used to be a music pirate myself but Spotify eliminated that urge and made everything more convenient for a good price. Then again the key to that is that they have anything available I can think of and even more. If companies want to eliminate piracy then that‘s how it should be with any streaming service, be it music, films or games.
Well, if Nintendo would finally realease a huge chunk of their Gamecube library on switch a lot of people would lose interest in emulators. Sunshine showed that it can be done…Here‘s hoping they’ll at least do that on the Switch‘s successor.
Honestly, the system in the game sucks and it still encourages you to spend money but the amount is just so absurd that I personally would never do it.
Then again, if you‘ve ever played Crash Bandicoot On The Run you know that you‘re not at the lowest end here. You‘d have to do the same course over and over again to collect weird items that would then create guns. And if you had collected the items it would sometimes take 12 hours (12!) till a gun would be finished. But of course there are means to speed up the process: your dinero disguised as pink crystals…
I‘ve never gotten the series appeal and I guess I never will. It‘s about killing people in the cruelest way possible. How is that so motivating? Guess I have to try my hands at serial killing one day and it will click with me
With the amount of Switch clones coming out all the time I think they are talking about one of these. Because yes, going back to LCD would be stupid move.
Pretty sure, takedowns of the unmodded ones are mistakes and can be taken back online. And paying somebody 10.000 bucks to alter a source code they don‘t own and then release is publicly? I‘m pretty sure that‘s illegal. This is not Nintendo hating on the mod community, there already exist countless mods which they weren‘t targeting.
Of course he needs to get fired, I can‘t believe there‘s even a discussion about it. If you let him stay, then others will do the same. He‘s probably better off losing his job instead of being sent to the court.
Can‘t wait to see it actually. And I don‘t see problems with too many references. That was one of the things that made me fall in love with Mario Odyssey.
And I think calling it just an Illumination movie won‘t do it justice. I‘m not a big fan of everything they do but people seem to forget that Myamoto was/is heavily involved. I‘m pretty sure he did everything to let it stand out from other films and let it have his own identity.
And by the way, before speculating we should just all go and see it when it comes out. No point in dooming it already.
The Nintendo Revolution reveal back in 2005 was fantastic. I remember watching a livestream of the event back then, it definately stuck with me. I was disappointed first when Nintendo opted out and did their Direct-thing. But I guess you can say they were ahead of their time. And it‘s obviously far more conveniant for them, pre-recorded footage in front of a green screen - it can‘t get any more cost effective than that.
I said it before and I‘ll say it again: People are whining about 10 bucks and probably have a steam library with unplayed games that is worth hundreds of dollars…Complain about other developers that put out unfinished stuff and sell it for 60 bucks. At least with Nintendo you can be sure that the game will be playable and a complete experience when it‘s released.
Super Mario Odyssey is probably on par with SM64 for me up and there with the very best games ever made. And Zelda blew my mind when it came out. No one really knew what to expect but boy did they deliver! 2017 is the only answer here.
I honestly love that about Nintendo. Sure, we all wanna get hyped but I‘d rather wait a little longer and have something substantial then things like: "The next game is gonna be huge! There‘ll so much content, you won‘t believe it! It is going to define the future of 3D platformers!" - Yeah, screw that. Let me form my own opinion on it when there‘s something to see.
Dread arguably really has the best one. You could make another poll about special suits, that would be interesting. The light suit in Prime 2 would be my favorite if I were to vote there ^^
Agreed with Skyward Sword. To me it is on par with Wind Waker though as she has great character development there.
BOTW did not shine for me in that regard. To be honest, Zelda appeared a little whiney to me in that game.
Don‘t get me wrong, it does look beautiful, 40 bucks for one game? It‘s remastered and not remade. Don‘t get me wrong, it does look beautiful and they probably tweeked a few things but it should have been the trilogy really.
Nintendo should have maxed out the formula they created in Assault. Seriously, the game has a very good concept and was lots of fun but it was ultimately too short and lacked the polish that Adventures had.
What kind of douche do you have to be to sue somebody for doing a tribute like that to you? Arnold Schwarzenegger would have to sue the entire film industry for making tributes to him and sometimes those are far from being as friendly as Pokémon did it here.
This is very well done even if it doesn‘t fit the level design at all. But why show the 2D sections if Mario isn‘t equipped with a 2D-Fludd? That‘s kinda pointless, isn‘t it?
Keep it, but tone it down a little bit. It sucked a** that you just got hold of the most ultra hyper weapon, after a fight where you nearly died just to have it breaking down after a few hits in some generic shrine.
