The way this headline was worded, I thought they were implying that Super Robot Wars T was the 3rd bestselling Switch game and I wondered why I had never heard of this game before!
@azlum Fortnite is huge and it's on a Nintendo console. It's very central to Nintendo happenings this month and beyond so of course it will be featured. Not to mention it's one of the few games on Switch that has frequent updates, so it's not really special treatment. ARMS gets the same treatment and I ignore those articles.
Very exciting for hardcore Sploon competitive folks like myself! Really great to see Nintendo continuing to support this game. Hopefully they will do the same for SSBU.
@Knuckles-Fajita It's more about the connecting and disconnecting of the controllers tho. You're constantly moving around setups and so it's a nightmare for TO's to remind everyone to connect and disconnect their controllers...
Guys, this game was created to fill the hole left by the Smash MELEE competitive scene, not to replace Smash 4. If you want the modern smash melee game that will never be made, this is your best bet.
I can't stand the cheesy "I'll do ANYTHING for you rex senpai!" type anime girls. But I might eat my words if I ever get and finish the game. Hopefully I end up liking it
That's wonderful news. A solid non gimicky genuine port is a great start. I agree that it won't hold up next year, but this year it ticks off an important market segment that Nintendo has left abandoned since the DS.
@Rei Wow chill, not sure how you can be worried about saving money yet at the same time will buy the non grank and grank versions of the same game and not complain It can't stay on 3DS forever anyway, and for the sake of the franchise's wider success in the west this is the best move. It'll pay off for you later
It's not especially offensive in those countries! It's just mildly offensive everywhere, or at least my understanding of it (Scottish) is an implication of flipping the bird, without actually doing it
@Blizzia Through lies and manipulation, WSJ singlehandedly destroyed my dreams right as I was about to make minimum wage on YT. Also they're notorious nintendo haters.
Does anyone know if it is invite-only? I might make it to E3 for the first time this year! And this would be perfect for me, being mainly a Splatoon YouTuber and player
Shield surfing has been a major letdown for me so far. The durability wears out far too quickly and the payoff in speed is often very low. I end up forgetting it exists most of the time tbh. Faster shields and shield surfing skatepark DLC plz? xD
@antdickens Thank you! That was my main concern, along with the heading vs sub heading style (feel like it's a bit harder to tell them apart). Otherwise great stuff

Re: Of Course Pokémon Sword And Shield Is Getting Review-Bombed
@mist Except that they haven't actually finished (probably some have never even played) the game..

Re: Looks Like The Daemon X Machina Demo Will Be Removed From The Switch eShop Next Week
What do other people think of the game? The graphics remind me of PS2 tbh so I wasn't impressed back when they revealed it
Re: Here's A Look At The Fortnite Nerf Blaster That's Being Released Next June

Re: FIFA Could Start To Include Fortnite Emotes For The Sake Of "Authenticity"
Jeez I have to spell it out, I love fortnite to bits. So many bandwagon haters out there
Re: FIFA Could Start To Include Fortnite Emotes For The Sake Of "Authenticity"
If I see one more post about fortnite I'm gonna tell my mom! Fortnite is for babies, play a real man's game like COD. Kids these days
Re: Praise The Sun! Dark Souls: Remastered On Switch Has A Confirmed Release Date
Cancelled my preorder just this morning actually. Unfortunately timely games such as Dead Cells and MHW:PC have become my summer games instead.

@Knuckles-Fajita It's more about the connecting and disconnecting of the controllers tho. You're constantly moving around setups and so it's a nightmare for TO's to remind everyone to connect and disconnect their controllers...
Re: Nintendo Is Open To Dropping The 'Direct' Approach At Future E3 Events
I miss the live conferences. But I think we can all agree that the problem this year was the lack of content. Bring back BIG E3s from Nintendo!
Re: Review: Fortnite (Switch eShop)
So many people jumping on the hate bandwagon just because it's popular and kids play it..

Re: 5 Things To Do With Your Master Cycle Zero In Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
APPLES AND ROCK SALT. Nothing else gives you as much bang for your buck. Do not use anything other than that, trust me.
Re: Rocket League Getting Performance-Boosting Update On Switch Later Today
More res please! Or less fade-out, often times you can barely see the ball!
Re: DLC Review: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - The Champions' Ballad + Expansion Pass
@JpGamerGuy90 I am with this. Surprised there isn't a mass sigh from the internet that this DLC is just another collectathon / more puzzles.
Re: Rumour: Scribblenauts Showdown Spotted on Taiwanese Ratings Board
Would love this, especially if it had a focus on multiplayer! These games are one of my favourite sandbox experiences

Re: Splatoon 2's Latest Weapon Is The Rapid Blaster Pro
My question exactly. I think the pro version is a whole new weapon, but we really need to know that sub/special combo
Re: Check Out a New NES Game - Amazon's Running Diet
I think the main problem is classing this lady as 'fat'. For many women with that body type that would be a very healthy weight.

Agh, I love we bear bears, this is soo cool!
Re: Wisdom Tree Wants To Inflict Noah's Ark On The World, Again
@PAHTK Let's not turn this into a petty catfight. I think we can all agree that these games are trash regardless

@gcunit last time I checked, joke about jews != nazi... Else we'd have a LOT of nazi comedians

@admwllms https://www.wsj.com/articles/disney-severs-ties-with-youtube-star-pewdiepie-after-anti-semitic-posts-1487034533
Is obviously the main golden one. They litterally put together a complilation of out of context Pewdiepie nazi references and claimed Pewdiepie was a nazi xD

@Blizzia Through lies and manipulation, WSJ singlehandedly destroyed my dreams right as I was about to make minimum wage on YT. Also they're notorious nintendo haters.

Re: Nintendo Confirms Splatoon 2 'Exhibition Tournament' for E3 2017
Does anyone know if it is invite-only? I might make it to E3 for the first time this year! And this would be perfect for me, being mainly a Splatoon YouTuber and player
Re: Fan-Made Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Lego Set Builds Up Support
This looks awesome Lego should pass it up and make an official set in collab with ninty
