When you have decency this is how you act you take responsibility. Speaking from the perspective of a novelist to the people complaining why are you so monumentally offended by them receiving criticism? All artists need to be told when we fall short so we can do better.
Where is Mario Galaxy 2? Why on earth didn't they do more work to improve Mario 64's graphics, the original four games got a bigger boost? I got a feeling Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit is going to be the next big thing and might rival Animal Crossing.
I'm happy for the Korean players now I wish they'd release a patch 3.0 and eliminate the mind numbing grinding needed. I love Xenoblade 2 but the sheer level of grinding needed to even decently unlock blades is a real killjoy especially when some can only be unlocked at the very end of the game.
@Kimyonaakuma the great problem with the movies in my opinion is they lacked any of the tension the games were built on. The Walking Dead is proof that a horror series can have an enormous amount of tension.
I just hope they don’t make the mistake of the Walking Dead, forgetting tension is key. The later episodes of the Walking Dead weren’t nearly as enjoyable since the tension wasn’t really there.
I really think this odd CGI style Netflix demands its anime series utilize is off putting I'd even say in this case its well ugly especially how robotic some of the animation is e.g. the scene of them in the forest. If there isn't a really good story here I'll pass.
@Ulysses I wouldn't mind a Megaman Legends series if they went with a halfway decent style.
@Jakiboy I don’t think anyone thinks that’s newsworthy but the figuring out is given how most people don’t commit any details about the Andromeda galaxy to memory and what’s there is fragmented.
I still don’t really see a point in buying any of these. Urbosa is my favorite character from BOTW, and I could almost justify buying the Urbosa one if it weren’t for that hideous stand.
I would love to see an HD remaster of Skyward Sword but only if it includes major quality of life improvements for the silent realms and extensive work to improve the imprisoned encounters which are among the worst bosses (I couldn’t think of a better term for them) in the series especially that last one. I for one would really prefer to not use motion controls I would rather direct the sword’s direction with the other analog stick.
@koekiemonster there are certainly overpriced ports but its such an old game they may not even have the assets from the original development. Even if they did they would still have to do a lot of work to bring the quality up to HD standards while maintaining the look at the original.
These antiquated copyright laws need to be changed so that fans can do their projects so long as they clearly label it as fan made and any money made is evenly split between them and the copyright holder.
@Crockin the combat system was so weak and rather annoying. There was no atmosphere to the game, a lot of that is just because of how bland it was. That robot boss was so unforgiving I rage quit multiple times, the game would’ve been better without it.
@Crockin I have to agree the game was so heavily focused on action and the Metroid fights became annoying e.g. them running away and with what a joke the last fights were and them basically ruining the surprise of that end boss that it felt like a poor indie imitation of a Metroid game.
This is what happens when you actually invest time and money into a series. The biggest problem with Metroid is its a Nintendo series, Nintendo really doesn’t seem to understand what to do with the series e.g. nothin on the N64, Other M, Federation Force.
If they want to sell more units than the Wii they need to really commit to making a better console e.g. fixing the eShop, bringing their online service on par with their competitors, implementing quality of life changes like folders and maybe lowering the price of the Switch for this holiday season.
I don’t even try to find games on the eshop because it is so terribly designed. The design is so bad in my opinion that it wouldn’t have been satisfactory on the Wii.
@OptometristLime maybe what we're seeing is a generational fight between the old guard and the new guard at Nintendo and the old guard decided to take the fight to the extreme? That's about the only thing that makes this absurdity make sense.

@tillyboo to me it sticks out like a sore thumb it draws attention away from Mario and Yoshi.
