Re: Nintendo Keeps Switch Online Cloud Saves For 180 Days After Membership Expiry

@beazlen1 If it wasn't part of their plan then why they didn't said anything in the direct and state an ambiguous message, they were probably testing the water but they notice the backlash, don't think Nintendo is a super friendly company there's a reason why they lost third parties and why they didn't add local save backups, well easy because they want you to pay for cloud saves

@Dalarrun While I agree that charging us 60 it's criminal at least with all the free games and sales that we get make up for that price (Seriously I save a lot of money thanks to the sales) but with this barebones service you only get what it's literally a paywall for save backups and 30 year old games no more, just because it's cheaper doesn't mean it's better and just wait for them to raise the price

Re: Sony Will Step Away From The Handheld Games Business In 2019, Leaving It All To Nintendo

@Medic_alert Well anything can be better than Wii U lol, but anyways I don't like that it tries to compete with consoles thanks to the hybrid nature of the console which I understand but I only buy Nintendo consoles as my secondary console for their unique games and exclusives like the 3DS which has games like Etrian Odyssey and also had Monster Hunter for a time and others, also it has poor battery, I find the joy cons gimmicky, no local save backups, and in my opinion it's overpriced with some games having the Nintendo tax and more but that's my opinion

Re: SNK's Yasuyuki Oda Unsure About One-Hit Mechanic In A Metal Slug Reboot

😂 😂🤣 I can tell from the comments that nobody really play this games because this games are not about difficulty they are about the fun experience even if it has 1 hit die, since you have unlimited continues you can push your way through this games not matter how bad you are, this games don't really need difficulty otherwise they can become frustrating but for crazy masochist they can try to beat it with one life if they want

One Hit you die was never a problem even back then for this franchise since you have unlimited continues and also re spawn in the same place with invulnerability, i played this games to death in the Arcade and PS1 and I still have the PS2 collection, Advanced in gba and 7 on DS
In conclusion while this games look from the 8 and 16 bit era with unfair mechanics, limited lives, lack of check points etc they are not and don't feel like that, in my opinion Metal Slug is one of the best game franchise ever

Re: Switch eShop Maintenance Scheduled For This Evening, Nintendo Online Service Ready To Go

@ultraraichu But it is barebones when you compare it to even the Wii U which is Nintendo previous console which offered backwards compatiblity with Wii software and peripherals, you can freely copy and backup your save data, free online multiplayer, you can send messages and invites WITHOUT needing a external smart phone app, a web browser / video player, seriously I don't understand why people defend Nintendo 🤦‍♂️

@sanderev 😂😂 What does this have to do with their online, 1 I agree with you I despise micro transactions but that's not how micro transactions work they don't block half of your game, 2 there used to be a time when Nintendo said they will never do DLC or season pass now that they do it apparently are the only ones that know how to do it lol so be ready when they jump into that bandwagon, and 3 don't think their service is gonna be 20 forever sooner or later they are gonna charge more

Re: Switch eShop Maintenance Scheduled For This Evening, Nintendo Online Service Ready To Go

@Travan Hey I agree with you I hate having to pay online on my PS4 but the difference is that you can get it cheaper than 60 and offers much more, a lot of games just this month alone I got 6 games 2 of them are AAA titles and the discount that it offers are so good not to mention basic online features like it should voice chat party chat/app, cloud saves, messages, achievements and more that alone makes you feel like your money was well invested, but with Nintendo you are just getting charged for something that used to be free and offer nothing more and if you think this is gonna be 20 forever you are naive they will probably rise the price next year

@VexingInsanity Don't try to defend their greedy tactics while I can see your point keep in mind that we are in 2018 almost 2019 actually and they delayed it for this mediocrity of service there's no excuse for putting your save data backups of your own games behind a paywall that doesn't even work with all your games and especially the important ones like Pokémon and others with the excuses of preventing hackers and punishing people who don't even do it , and while it is cheaper it doesn't mean it's worth the price when it lacks basic features if you compare it to any of the other consoles either PS4 or Xbone you'll understand the reason why people are disappointed

@EVIL-C "I've suffered mass data loss before"
I know the feeling almost all my n64 games lost their save data because of the battery but for that time and been a cartridge base games it's understandable even when PS1 had memory cards and N64 too but it didn't work for all games especially the Nintendo ones, the console that started with saves problems was Wii because it didn't allow save backups to the SD for online games that's when Nintendo paranoia started and I lost my saves for games like Mario kart SSB brawl because my Wii died
And that is why save backups to an SD card are important even more than save clouds but no one cares apparently

Also you now why Nintendo and Microsoft join to get cross play and what's the reason for cross play

Re: Guide: How Cloud Saves Work In Nintendo Switch Online

GKO900

@EVIL-C Ok so you agree that Nintendo it's been anti consumer with there poorly implemented online service and people should unite and push for a save backups to an SD card, VC console and basically fix everything wrong with this service

And you never answer my question about cross play with Xbone so that means you probably haven't even use cross play and even if what you say somehow becomes true that's for the next generation that doesn't affect any PS4 owners in any way right now unlike Nintendo not allowing you to secure your save data and besides what cross play has to do with this anyway

Re: Guide: How Cloud Saves Work In Nintendo Switch Online

GKO900

@VexingInsanity How it's not anti consumer to Not allow save backups to an SD card and only offer save cloud for 20 that don't even work with all games and if your subscription expires they don't have the decency to to keep your saves for a certain time so you can renew your subscription

Re: Guide: How Cloud Saves Work In Nintendo Switch Online

GKO900

@EVIL-C 😂 So you don't care about your game progress if it's lost because you can't save back up to an SD card or even save cloud even when you are paying for it but you care more about cross play and play with a random guy, genuine question do you even know if you play with someone from Xbox instead of Switch if that happens?

Re: Guide: How Cloud Saves Work In Nintendo Switch Online

GKO900

@Rafke Just because it's cheaper doesn't mean it's a good service the only difference now it's that you have to pay for what it was free, It really doesn't fix issues that people had like better online nope it's P2P, VC console games at this point N64 games are gonna appear next generation, no decent way to save your games since the save clouds are not gonna work with all games and what happened to the leaderboard that they promised for the Nes games I think people forgot about that and more

Re: Opinion: What Did You Think Of Today's Nintendo Direct?

GKO900

@Mgene15 They are gonna use there last big cards in 2019 don't expect anything too big for 2020 or you gonna be disappointed, once Nintendo use SSB, Zelda, Mario 3D, Kart etc, Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Metroid and Fire Emblem they don't have any other big titles to attract more buyers, and yea they have others good games like Luigi, pikmin and others but those games are not system sellers so hopefully they get more exclusive third party and not just downgrades

Re: Opinion: What Did You Think Of Today's Nintendo Direct?

GKO900

@thesilverbrick But if they are bothering porting games might as well port games we never got like the 3 F zero game on gba, Mother 3 or even the Kirby game from Wii U would've better than Epic Yarn I'm never gonna buy a Wii U for that game but I do have a Wii
