Re: Toys 'R' Us Seeks Bankruptcy Protection in North America

@RoomB31 I love my local EB Games the guys there are really helpful and great ppl to chat too when it's not busy. Also they price match so just shop around and show them you'll get the best price! They handle all my preorders with no problems at all. Much prefer that to ordering online.
Just my personal opinion but all this reliance on digital and online is nowhere near the same satisfied experience you get from speaking face to face with someone. When my joycon played up I took it in and swapped it over in minutes not sat waiting for my entire Switch to go through post to Nintendo and back again.

Re: Check Out a New NES Game - Amazon's Running Diet

Uh could have been cooler. The cake and water looks rubbish and quite similar in appearance. I get it's just promo fluff but still they want us to play it right? Not for me when it looks that bland. All the time and effort seems to have been spent on chubby half dressed pixel art..... real cool 😒

Re: Lichtspeer Developer Suggests That Nintendo Has Switch Achievements in the Works

Filth_Element

@BinaryFragger lol I don't know about ppl in the past hating on those things. But I hate achievements that box popping up in the corner to let me know I just completed level one.... I know that I just spent the last few minutes watching an fmv letting me know I just completed said level!
I've always preferrred the in game menus to understand how much a game has been completed.
As for showing off to friends what I have finished etc, yawn I'm still waiting for that info to load, now I'm not interested anymore.... literally don't understand this achievements/trophies obsession.

Re: FIFA 18 On Switch Runs At 60fps In Both Docked And Handheld Modes

@Nolan420 yeah I know that because I've bothered to read an article or two and understand what is big in the US despite not living there. I'm just laughing at some of the ppl here from the US who refuse to look at the outside world once in a while because they think only America counts. Not trying to have a go at you but must not have been clear enough before lol... rant over.

Re: Editorial: Is This a Golden Era of Gaming? Absolutely

Filth_Element

I reckon a good few of you are missing the point of the article. It's not saying a golden era of gaming for Nintendo.... that's just a piece of the whole pie. I've been gaming for a good long while and I think it's certainly a good time to be a gamer. Maybe not a golden age but there is defo a lot of choice and quiet affordable too. It was once a matter of selling older games to upgrade whereas now I can keep a lot of my older hardware and software.

Re: Talking Point: Capcom, the Nintendo Switch and Gaming Business Realities

Filth_Element

Wow the people who are commenting on Capcom being horrible for this move....did you read the article? Or just comment after reading the headline. As for whether or not Capcom's glory years are over, their true glory years we're back in the Ninties, they are a strong developer who I hope will be around for a long time. Sometimes putting out weak material but always there to release something special once in a while. Resi4 Wii anyone👌

Re: Game Boy Color Screen Mod Almost Makes The Console Complete

Filth_Element

Why in the world would you do that to an AGS-101 when it can play your Gamboy Color games anyway..... seems utterly stupid. Do you know how long and hard it was for me to track down an AGS-101 and manage to get it at the none crazy price they command. What a ridiculous idea. Back to drawing board come back to me with a better one.... sorry to be so blunt.

Re: Exclusive: Gear.Club Unlimited Unveiled for the Nintendo Switch, Coming This Year

@NintyNate "The thing is coz the Switch has mobile tech and uses Nvidia stuffs it's going to get more and more of these types of games ..."

That's exactly what I'm scared of. I have a 3ds as I want real gaming experiences on the go not these cheap mobile games that imo just are not good enough games. Not when you are used to console gaming. I'm not saying the visuals weren't up to scratch just boring character models and backgrounds. The backgrounds were rinsed and repeated too many times. Again this is just my personal experience and if you enjoyed it fair enough. But there are better games out there waaaaaaaaay more worth my time, this horrible drivel of software is not for me thanks. If the Switch got something like Devil May Cry a very old game I would rejoice. That's a game not Implosion!

Re: Exclusive: Gear.Club Unlimited Unveiled for the Nintendo Switch, Coming This Year

Filth_Element

@NintyNate no it really wasn't. I hate that game boring visuals, boring game play, go from here to here, boring mechanics, press this button and then this one for rubbish combo A or B, boring script boring acting boring boring 😴😴😴 sorry drifted off there just from reliving my horrible experience with that thing. (I refuse to call that a game it's an insult to the industry)

And quiet honestly I'm actually scared at the prospect of titles like this coming from mobile games and flooding the Switch market. The Switch deserves more than this kind of experience, it's certainly not what I bought it for. I hope others don't make these types of titles a success.... I really really hope....

Re: Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 is Celebrated With a Limited Edition Art Print

Filth_Element

@Dakt dude it is gaming news and I for one appreciate being able to come here and get lots of news and not have to go to multiple sources. I also like the fact that coming here is not the equivalent of sticking my head in the sand as soon as non Nintendo news gets anywhere close to me.

@Dang69 Good call man. Yeah I reckon some would be much happier sticking to news sources that aren't the press. A balanced opinion and view is not what some want obviously.

Re: The Art of Shantae Launches Sometime in 2018

Filth_Element

@EDF it's most likely that came from the fact it started in the Gameboy Color and was the only one for many years before becoming a download title available on multiple platforms. But yeah it's not really is it lol.

Shantae's art is awesome but I won't pick this up.
