If the timer actually added to it it would be a buy, but as the unlockable infinite timer proves the timer isn’t actually in the game to add challenge or to be used creatively it’s done to keep you playing.
They’ll work on it for 6 years release a badly broken game, add a battle royale mode and neglect the game they originally sold you on for 6 months until they finally start working on it again.

@Cartune yeah I thought it was gonna be a cashgrab where NLife sell there scruples for a percentage of whatever people buy who were directed to said product via this article.
I do like the look of this but I worry that it can only take an hour to beat max, because you have to be able to reach the edge of the map in under a minute so how many possible and unique things can you truly do to lengthen the game in the confines you’ve built?
As NL review about as fast as paint drying (yet those articles endorsing hacking, or advertising stuff to get them more money certainly pop up super fast 🙃) I recomend watching this.
Everyone sitting around waiting on the big review, the one that says if the biggest indie trilogy to date is worth it after all, 2pm the embargo lifts everyone puts up a review saying it’s amazing and NintendoLife... Put up this crap
My issue is the colour is unmatched, I sadly hate the 2 different coloured Joy Con matchup that so many seem to love, so without a right Joy Con that matches I’ll stay using my horrid dpad buttons
Looks awful to be honest, the worst part of any space dogfighting game is going from A to B, because there’s nothing to do but wait and be bored. And with very little moving scenery just doing that can make the activity (or lack of activity to be honest) feel like it takes forever.
Watching footage of this, that’s exactly what this whole game is.
It is almost impossible to get a real sense of speed and excitment when it looks like you’re barely moving.
I applaud them for trying something new, but this would bore me to tears.
Also Phantom Menace, REALLY?! Starting any review by reminding the brain of such awfulness isn’t really a smart idea, it would be like Beer advertising with domestic violence.
@ottospooky pretty sure that’s Tingle to be honest, lol.
But yeah Wario’s Tennis partner who’s never even had his own game doesn’t deserve a slot, I think people are only annoyed because Wii Fit Trainer and R.O.B also didn’t deserve spots, BUT they’re joke characters who play really well.
And Waluigi is so, well, nothing to so many people that he’s not even a joke character.
Amazing game but when you can’t even play with your mates it’s a total joke. Bought at launch with my brothers and we couldn’t play on the same team, we all sold it right then.
I bought it back for the Octo DLC and I see nothing has changed. Nintendo have some gaul to charge for online when it’s so ******* limited!
On PS4 I can play hundreds of games with my mates AND voice chat with them. Even better, mates who aren’t playing with us can join and chat.
Told at 16 due to my many health issues I’d never work. Without games I’d have no life.
My mates both IRL and online are all gamers, so it is the best thing for me.
Play over 60 hours a week on average, again a lot of time on my hands. And when you spend your life alone, talking to mates while you game is a tremendous boost that really helps fight off depression.
@URAmk2 Played on PS4 since day 1 and 30fps wasn’t unplayable but it sucked hard, the day the 60fps patch went in there was much rejoicing all around, plays so much better at 60.
@dew12333 considering I keep saying all over the net how crap Sony’s E3 was, thinking the lack of any major surprises and very by the numbers footage of stuff we’ve known about for years has more to do with it, lol
@HappyRusevDay that being said I don’t actually think E3 was bad, Sony was shocking for the 3rd year straight, they phoned it in and gave me little to care about
MS spent far too long on the future and no time on what they have got for the present
Whereas Nintendo shown what I wanted.
Enjoyed Ninty’s far more than any other and looking forward to a lot of what they shown.

Re: Illegal Game Sharing Site Mocks Nintendo's Recent Legal Actions With Trolling Video
GoNintendo didn’t name the site or show the video because they’re responsible journalists.
Scummy NL saw NL in said video and thought “OMG WE’RE FAMOUS, LET’S PROMOTE THIS EVEN MORE”.
Re: Adding Fox McCloud To Starlink: Battle For Atlas Was Nintendo's Suggestion
So F-ZERO Switch is Fast Racing RMX
Advanced Wars is Tiny Metal/WarGroove
Star Fox is Starlink
2D Metroid is like 20 games at this point, so many Metroidvania’s
Any other forgotten Ninty franchises revived by people other than Nintendo?

@EVIL-C best part is, they just smegging did what I said.
There’s a new guide to the best co-op games on Switch and every game that can, links to Amazon to buy it 😹😹😹
Great scruples NL.
Re: Weirdness: Amazon UK Asks Switch Owners To Spend A Penny For Free Game Demos
@AlexOlney yet you lot will publish an article about “great” things to buy and link them even when there are cheaper alternatives.
But that’s none of my business.

So I didn’t want to get hooked if this becomes the indie version of Mass Effect, lol.
So this collection interests me greatly.
Re: Fans Are Calling Out Nintendo And Camelot For "Lazy" Mario Tennis Aces
@blockfight same, getting Toad with the trade, paying more for Toad as I had it on Amazon for £29 but at least my MTA cash isn’t a complete waste.
I feel a lot of reviewers dropped the ball with this game.
Re: Review: Pocket Rumble (Switch eShop)
@Shiryu played 1 match and went insane trying combo’s all the usual inputs and nothing working, then I found out it has none.
Fun game but takes a butt ton of skill and strategy out of a genre that desperately requires those things.
People wouldn’t watch EVO if Ryu could spam fireballs with a single button push, lol.

Re: Splatoon 2 Developers Aren’t Planning More Single Player Expansions
Shame as I only play the single player.
Amazing game but when you can’t even play with your mates it’s a total joke. Bought at launch with my brothers and we couldn’t play on the same team, we all sold it right then.

Re: Nintendo Download: 21st June (North America)
My MTA cart arrived today, as expected I detest the BS but love the pure tennis mode.
I wish you could unlock everything without playing with all the BS, I genuinely got a headache after the training because there’s just so much crap.
Motion controls, breaking rackets, super duper mega shots, super duper mega blocks, trick shots it’s all crap.
But turn all that off and you’ve got the best tennis game I’ve played in years.

Re: Nintendo's Reggie Fils-Aimé Hits Back At Analysts After Recent Share Price Drop
Genuinely can’t stand this guy, haven’t liked him since he complained that Nintendo gamers are never happy and always want more.
Sorry for asking for F-Zero for over a decade and then not being happy when you release 4! Mario games over 3DS and WiiU in the space of 14 months.
We really aren’t ever happy Reggie, eh? Clearly 4 Mario games equals 1 F-Zero 🙄🙄🙄
