@DeclanS98 Methinks ye be the tool who be triggered.

@ComradeThom There’s something bizarrely hyperbolic about accusing me of being ‘Anti Switch.’ Like I have some sort of hidden agenda.

Damn it! My evil plan is ruined!

@TheAwesomeBowser If you’re unable to see why Mario 64 is a vastly, vastly superior game to Crash Bandicoot, there’s nothing I can do for you.

@FredBiletnikoff By comparison, Super Mario 3, Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country 1+2 (and even 3), Mario 64, and Banjo Kazooie?

Not even in the same universe, never mind the same ballpark.

Crash is a perfect example of nostalgic blindness through rose-tinted glasses, IMO.

@BenAV I didn’t like the Crash games even at the time. Always thought the platforming was poor, the level design was restrictive and overly basic, and the world and character designs were unoriginal and tacky. And Crash himself is just detestable—ugly and irritating as hell.

But that’s just my opinion. I’m sure I love lots of things that people could give good reasons for hating.

@RareFan McDonalds sells plenty of burgers. Don’t make it good food.

@Anti-Matter Holding and expressing an opinion which differs from your own is not trolling.

By that logic I could accuse you of trolling for liking Crash games.

Which ARE trash, by the way. Tacky, poorly made rubbish.

Now get back under your bridge.

@Fazermint @Anti-Matter @JokerCK

Them pesky opinions, eh?

@FNL I learned this new word yesterday which I will employ now. Bear with me.

SSSSSIIIIIIMMMMMMP!

@Collette Worry not, Fair Maiden.

I shall defend you here.

Back, foul Beasties!

@Dezzy What if they pay in ‘favours’?

@HappyMaskedGuy What purpose would such a game serve though? To quote Dr Ian Malcolm:

‘Your scientists were too preoccupied with whether they could instead of stopping to think whether they should.’

A game about being a nasty online troll? Think we have enough of that in reality.

@SSJW An incel term?

@HappyMaskedGuy By that logic is a game that encourages you to abuse people online just as okay?

@HappyMaskedGuy Even so, nobody is forcing you to listen to said preaching. Just don’t buy the game.

@HappyMaskedGuy True. But isn’t it patronising to treat people as if they don’t already understand that abusing people is wrong, and harmful? Isn’t that why they do it in the first place?

Also, isn’t it a bit holier-than-thou to preach to people? Isn’t this taking a privileged position of self-righteousness? Most people understand that such behaviour is wrong. To tar everyone with the same brush is surely deconstructive and hypothetical?

@happymaskedguy

I think you’re missing several important points. Regardless of whether it happens online via streaming, abuse is abuse. If it’s a crime in person, why shouldn’t the same rules apply online?

Also, women tend to suffer a disproportionate amount of abuse online, not least sexually. They should feel protected and confident enough to do what they want to do without worrying about bullies or harassment.

If a game helps to highlight those issues, and maybe get people to consider what they are doing wrong, isn’t that a good thing?

@Damo deploys infallibility. It failed!

AHM OFFENDED.

@Ainz Exactly my thoughts. I hate bullying, but thought policing isn’t the solution either. And this looks like ‘Virtue Signalling—The Game.’

Oh, and please, @NintendoLife, sort out the headlines of your articles. This one is an indecipherable trainwreck.

@6ch6ris6 Sorry, reality does not suit the agenda.

I’m really not sure how to feel about this.

Any kind of bullying is horrible. But when you choose to become a streamer, isn’t that par for the course? You are broadcasting yourself to the public. Expecting everyone to behave responsibly is pretty unrealistic. Better to learn how to ignore the words of said a**holes.

This feels patronising rather than helpful.

Great, really.

Now about those 'videogames'....

@dew12333 I think 'moaning' is a bit disingenuous. More like expressing opinions. If those opinions don't align with your own then...sorry, I guess?

I don't know what you're expecting or looking for here.

@Ajent I don't think you have a clue what I'm talking about.

But go ahead and tell yourself you've 'won' something. Sounds like you need it, living such a difficult life.

The Ubisoft ‘con’-ference.

Won’t lie—

I’m disappointed.

What a tragedy.

It was certain to be film of the year.

@glaemay I don’t think you have the slightest clue what racism actually is.

I think it’s safe to say that Pokemon has long since passed its heyday.

@Ajent By comparison you must be slaving in the sulphuric haze of a volcanic crater.

Poor guy.

@MrGawain That is such a strange analogy.

I’ll bet your cupboard is crammed full of Club biscuits.

@Ajent That editing error is indicative of a whole attitude though.

It’s The Pokemon Company—one of the richest multimedia companies in the world. Not some 13 year old editing these videos.

At this point it’s clear they don’t have any interest or passion for what they are doing. They are now your typically lazy, greedy, cynical corporation, and for that, they can go straight to hell 😘

@PLATINUM7 Just like someone holding you down, farting into your face, then handing you a fiver.

‘How can you be so upset when I gave you five quid??’

That we haven’t gotten a Metroid Prime 4, Bayonetta 3, or Breath of the Wild 2 trailer at this point is ridiculous.

But hey, we got.....this? Whatever the hell this crap is.

Nintendo really pulled out the big W huh?

@ThanosReXXX Will do, Mr Thanos.

@gamekill Agreed. Moral high-horsing snobbery.

Like they’ve never palmed their sausage in the back of a car next to that baby from Trainspotting before 🧐

@Fandabidozi As your legal representative, Jimmy, I really must insist that you stop hanging around dodgy websites to discuss your own sexual deviancies.

You have an audition coming up for Jack and the Beanstalk. Don’t blow it.

@Shworange Didn’t Iwata want games to reach the widest audience possible?

This isn’t about quality control. It’s about staying relevant.

I’ve already shared this trailer with three of my friends. It’s called marketing, any of which in any capacity is generally considered ‘good’.

@BenAV Agreed. It’s surprisingly enlightened for a company that doesn’t trust its fans enough for voicechat.

@RPGamer And, oddly, the most mature people here...

@ThanosReXXX It’s nice to see people discuss adult games.

Sex ain’t nothin’ to be ashamed of.

@Shambo Yeah, I must have misread you. My apologies.

@NIN10DOXD Ah well then, if that’s the case, good riddance.

@Fandabidozi Careful Jimmy, you have a pantomime legacy to protect!

@Kalmaro YA KNOW YA WANT IT!

TAKE IT!

@Shambo I also am vegan, have ADHD, and am very much a lover, not a fighter.

@Cool_Squirtle Because they are flawed human beings.

Don’t worry. The purge of the robotic supermen will take care of it soon. Rest easy, little one.
