Hmm this list is kinda of. almost half of the gadgets on that list are not worth having or special. The Surface laptop has windows 10S and only uses apps from the windows store which is a wasteland. The new echo is cheaper and smaller, really innovated. A drone that uses hand controls and 2 flagship phones, one of which is more than $1000.
@Jeronan what are you talking about? @SLIGEACH_EIRE has a bunch of positive comments on this site. SLIGEACH does leave comments everywhere on almost every post
@RedMageLanakyn To be fear though Peter Molyneux has made lots of impressive games when he was part of Bullfrog and lionhead studios. He is not in the same class as 4 mediocre games Sean Murray and Keiji * no original idea ever* Inafune. Molyneux is atleast a programmer, Inafune is a character designer. His job at Capcom was drawing Megaman bosses. He can't make games
Green hill zone, again! getting real sick of Green hill zone being in everything. Thank god i was on the Nintendo side of The Great Console war of the 90's because i feel sorry for the Sega fanboys getting GHZ in every Sonic game. World 1-1 is only in remakes but I'm not going to see it in Odyssey.
Is it also Dragmire in Japan? If it's not it Princess Toadstool, Bowser or heck Ganon Dragmire all over again. Japan has the final say and it looks like that glossary is not in Engrish or Japanese
@DanteSolablood I don't think Cyanogen made a smart business decision. Nintendo is a 127 year old company worth billions and has mayor succes with the Wii and DS a couple of years ago and still successful with the 3DS now. They told them to "Stick it" probably because Cyanogen could not make the OS Nintendo wanted in the time given or with the budget they had
I'm going to take a random stab in the dark and say that it's because of using carts and not disc. Would you look at that, only three sentences. I didn't have to write a whole article.
@Gaeus Wrong. Games are attached to the hardware. contacting Nintendo is only in case of theft or if the console is broken beyond repair after given to a Nintendo repair center and it will cost you $$$. You don't even have a avatar pic so you are probably a troll. have some scrums and starve. You can only redownload the games from your Nintendo account on the same system. No where in the fine print of a wiiu or 3ds does it say you can relink and redownload
VR is stupid. It's not the future of gaming. it would be like ifa TV came out that only used voice commands and no remote. Playing VR is fun for 30minutes and then what? Glad Nintendo said the Switch is VR "capable" but is in no way planning to do something about it. VR failed before it even came out but the companies tried anyway.
@Captain_Gonru The NFC reader/writer is in the controllers not the Switch. Do you think when and if Nintendo makes a Switch "buzzword", the old controllers won't work with it?The only way they would remove NFC is if they would make a new Joycon and a new Pro controller, which they won't because so many people have Amiibo and still buy them. Also fyi, no games have used the touch functionality on the Switch, look at Splatoon 2. So Nintendo designed the Switch with non touch based gaming in mind. Would not surprise me if touch is only used for menu navigation when both Joycons are off and the system is not docked or maybe it will never be used at all. remember the exspansion ports on the NES, SNES and N64 or the DS mic, 3DS 3d AR camera or the Wiiu gamepad camera and gamepad EXT slot. You used them one time or never if you live outside of Japan. So Nintendo has designed systems with features that are never used, functionality be dammed
@Setery10 i think you mean the wiiu gamepad has stereo sound and even if both systems have hdmi the switch version can still have better sound because Nintendo is going to put better sound in the Switch version and not in the Wiiu version. Not my words but Aonuma's: The Switch version will also feature "higher-quality environmental sounds", Nintendo stated. "As a result, the sound of steps, water, grass, etc. are more realistic and enhance the game's Open-Air feel."
@Captain_Gonru they put it in the Joycon because you would have to get up and walk to the Switch when it's docked to use an Amiibo. You know the Switch is also a homeconsole as well as a handheld right?
@rjejr i have been thinking about why Nintendo let the Wiiu die. What if the Wiiu was like the Virtual boy? Something had to fill the gap between Wii and Switch so they launched the Wiiu. They stopped support of the VB in a year. Wiiu 5 years
The Switch is going to domuch better than the Wiiu and people keep forgetting why. The mobile and homeconsole divisions are one now. Remember 3ds got planet Robobot in 2016 and wiiu got Rainbow curse in 2015? Triple deluxe was on 3ds in 2014 so 3ds owners had to wait 2 years for a new Kirby but with the Switch they would have gotten a Kirby every year
Welp two more amiibo for me to buy. What happened to Corrin and my pick for smash Bayonetta? I wonder if they will add the rest of the fire emblem amiibo to Fates?
How is this Nintendos fault?if they released 100 in every store one person would buy all of them and sell them on ebay. if the store said,one per person he would just find 99 friends to help him. the stores can't stock 100 of these things because they sell different stuff and can't fill the whole store with mini NES. use your brains and blame the right scumbags. The resellers and the store managers
