Re: Nintendo Wants Mobile to be a "Pillar of Profit"

EverythingAmiibo

@Yorumi The Wii had FAR more better titles than GC. Yes it was drowning in shovelware, but that was part of the price to pay for that better library. The Wii U has a very similar library to GCN, a few gems that will be remembered and played far into the future, but not a very large selection of good titles. This crappy generation in-between that produces some good games is BAD for Nintendo's buisiness. If they want to continue this trend, the profitible generation has to happen too. Embracing mobile gaming and the NX concept are the last hope for making this a profitable generation, otherwise this whole pattern and most likely Nintendo themselves will spiral downhill.

What a load of nonsense you guys are talking, am I the only one who wants Nintendo to not go under?! Mobile games are the equivalent of last gen's 'casual' success, and you aren't seriously going to tell me that Nintendo's success from the Wii and DS casual games made their core games worse. No. It made it an amazing generation because their budget was insane! The Wii U generation sucked because Nintendo was not profiting enough :/

Re: Feature: How One Man Saved Kyoto - And Video Games - From The Atomic Bomb

EverythingAmiibo

@Damo I wasn't referring to that, I mean the fact that you dismissed the use of the bomb as necessary "The bomb itself was seen by some as the only way to bring World War II to a close" "many more American lives would be expended trying to secure a surrender.". It's a huge debate among many people with many reasons that it should or shouldn't have happened. Not voicing the many (maybe even majority) people who would oppose the use (retroactively as well) of any nuclear weapons regardless of the 'need' is just silly.

Re: Weirdness: The NES Zapper Just Became Much Deadlier

EverythingAmiibo

Ok Nintendolife, I get that you want this cheap story, but
"As if the United States didn't already have enough problems with accidental shootings, a custom firearms manufacturer in Texas has taken it upon itself to fashion a deadly Glock handgun in the guise of a (normally) harmless NES Zapper."
sounds like a clickhole article. I am firmly against the right to bear arms in general (born in America, living in Scotland), but this is just silly trying to turn this into a flame war, and you know full well why, jeez :/

Re: Super Smash Bros. Community Yet to Ban Bayonetta in Spain as the Debate Shifts to Tournament Bullying

EverythingAmiibo

That 'sadsmasher' guy needs to fix his local scene (or maybe just get a thick skin xD), not ban the character cause it makes him unpopular xD SPEAKING AS PART OF THE SCOTTISH SMASH SCENE Bayonetta is seen as top tier here, but after a few weeks of everyone playing her, no one here is genuinely hating on bayo players! Before Corrin's counter got nerfed, I received so much crap for maining her, even though I didn't once abuse the counter xD But it was all in good humour, and we all got bored of that joke before her counter was even nerfed.

Re: International Game Developers Association Issues Critical Statement Over Nintendo and Alison Rapp

EverythingAmiibo

I think the IGDA's statement sums it up well. Online vigilantes are a real-world problem, and big companies are some of the only ones with the power to influence these mobs. They should be taking careful care to diffuse certain situations rather than add fuel to the flame.

I don't know much about Alison's views, and I don't care much to know. There are billions of bigots and 'forward thinking' hipsters in the world. Just cause someone with odd or 'wrong' views shows up on the internet, doesn't mean she deserves the full concentration of the world's hate.

Edit: That's just in regards to the internet hate. After looking at the comments below, I think Nintendo's firing of her is beyond justified, if a little mis-timed.

Re: Video: First Gameplay Trailer For LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Has Dogfighting And Plenty Of Backstory

EverythingAmiibo

Agree with everyone saying "more of the same" etc, but this one looks like it has some real love put into it rather than the cashgrabs like 'Lego Marvel 24' , 'Lord Of The More Lego' and 'Oh, another DC one? Ok. LEGO!' xD I'm really looking forward to it, especially to play with my youngest siblings who saw SW:FA as there first star wars film in cinema

Re: Splatoon And Super Mario Maker Honoured At The Game Awards 2015

EverythingAmiibo

@Fee You're right. I admit it, I'm becoming a drag so I can be as beautiful as ijustine! lol, I was meaning of course I'm jealous of her success, but I really don't like the white straight hair and over makeup-ed type of girl, I genuinely find it a wee bit gross.

Edit: (dyed white hair!! Not white skin, not making a racist comment here xD)
