@SimplyCinnamon53 According to Jim Ryan, the new head of PlayStation, back in an interview around E3 2017, its because of the kids, or shareholders, or no specific objection.
@thesilverbrick Priblem is with investors that setting too low a goal would worry them to. If you dont expect to sell many, or at least lie to them about expectations to make your eventual results look better, not only would you turn them away, and thus hurt yourself because they think youve got a week year coming, but youd also open yourself up to a legal battle by deceiving investors.
@Moroboshi876 When they say "Xbox One X launch title" what they mean is it lahnched on the same day as said system and was meant to show the benefits of the upgrade alongside other launch titles that day like Forza and at the time it was planned, Crackdown 3.
Nintendo's commercials predominantly targeted younger audiences during programs such as SpongeBob SquarePants and Family Guy, across networks including Nick, the Disney Channel and Adult Swim.
@Grumblevolcano That's the joke. I know it's Rooftop Run, but the article, and Push Square, said the stage in Unleashed was called Market Street, when that's the name of the track in Racing.
I think the big prpblem with this game was how it was announced.
E3 2017 - Core RPG title coming to Switch in the future
Then randomly at 4am my time, with no prior announcement, here's your first look at Let's Go.
It was live tweeted from a Japan only event. It didn't come out for some time that the game they intially announced was 2019.
By just dropping the news in the most backwards way imaginable and running what was initially counter to their comments at E3 just confused and frustrated people.
@carlos82 The only thing going for getting Spyro on Switch instead of stuff like anything made in the RE Engine as you mention, is the engine that Spyro runs on.
I believe it goes by the name "Unreal Engine 4" or something. Something to do with Fortnite, Yoshi's Crafted World, Daemon X Machina...
@NewAdvent Mate I had to work overnight in a department I'm not trained in to fix someone else's mess until 5am, on the anniversary of one of the biggest events in world history.
Still observed the occasion while doing other things
It should be full 4k with HDR to include even colours not visible to the human eye, every frame should have a hidden ultraviolet only image that when collated with every other frame in the game creates a map to El Dorado and the game should do all that while wearing sexy lingerie because screw it I'm an entitled nerd who wants his jollies while having his cake and eating it too!
I've also been told by my business associates that to keep the lights on in the DF (Devil's Fornicator) offices I have to say the game card should taste like Cheerios and if not to call Blizzard's customer service at which point you will receive a replacement with a lifetime supply of phones in your pocket to play mobile titles while on the toilet recovering from that Mountain Dew and Dorito party you had last night that meant you had to skip work today to play more Diablo 3.
Oh, and your Mom says the mini pizzas are in the oven and you should take them out in half an hour.

Im fairly sure Respawn would laugh and insult the system first.
Oh wait, they did.

Re: UK Charts: A Very Familiar UK Top Ten Sees Three Nintendo Titles Standing Strong
Where are those digital included charts at? Itll be interesting to see if Nintendo sticks around given theh dont share digital sales.
Re: Talking Point: What Does The Nintendo Seal Of Quality Mean In 2019?
I think we can all agree the question posed at the end of Nintendo being more stringent is tactical suicide.
Lets be honest. Nintendo would be down right insane to tell third parties no or start bossing them around.

Re: Nintendo's UK Store Appears To Have Confirmed Mortal Kombat 11 Switch Delay In Europe
@RyanSilberman @smithpa01 If that was the case wouldn't it impact all the platforms and not just one?

Re: Metroid Prime 4 Development Scrapped, Will Be Restarted Alongside Retro Studios
Now we know what Retro Studios is making.
The meme can die.
Also if this was say, EA, we'd never hear this publicly nor would it be restarted.

And X-2 is a download!
Re: Video: Get Over Here And Watch More Footage Of Mortal Kombat 11
@JamesJose7 Nope. All the press release states is the game launches beginning on April 23rd which implies not all versions launch that day.
Also there is no pre-order beta for Switch, nor is there a Collectors Edition. Rumours going of no season pass either.

Re: Nintendo's Holiday Television Advertising Promotes Pokémon, As PlayStation Once Again Takes Out Top Spot
Let's play spot the "WTF".

Re: "Please Understand" Nintendo Is Replacing Its Controversial Creators Program With New Guidelines
@Mopati You only have to legally state an affiliation where there is an actual affiliation.
This is Nintendo simply stating, hey, do whatever.
If Nintendo paid you, or supplied a copy, and you then made a video, THEN you need to legally say so.
Re: Sega Teases New Track And Music For Team Sonic Racing
@ryancraddock To be fair, when has SEGA known what they are doing regarding Sonic?

@Grumblevolcano That's the joke. I know it's Rooftop Run, but the article, and Push Square, said the stage in Unleashed was called Market Street, when that's the name of the track in Racing.
Re: Sega Teases New Track And Music For Team Sonic Racing
People keep talking about this remix of Market Street from Sonic Unleashed.
I don't recall a stage named that in Unleashed. Odd.
@ryancraddock
Re: "Please Understand" Nintendo Is Replacing Its Controversial Creators Program With New Guidelines
@Joeynator3000 And those rules are....perfectly acceptable and in line with what people complaining were saying.
"But my videos are transformative!"
Now there is a rule saying, k, as long as its transformative, we are good.
"Only officially released things and materials"
Given how Smash got spread over the internet before release, yeah, go for it Nintendo.
So yeah, these rules are fine.
Re: Video: YouTube Content Creators Team Up With Nintendo To Promote Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Probably should highlight this error in the article:
"upped the requirements for its controversial YouTube creators program."
All networks had to do that. YouTube mandated the minimum requirements for any monetisation be increased.

Re: What Happened To Spyro: Reignited Trilogy Coming To The Switch?
@carlos82 In your post you said this:
"but I suspect that Spyro likely will appear on Switch as remasters of older games are certainly more viable."
Implying the only reason Spyro will show up is because it's a remaster, not because of the underlying technology.
If your comment that "It's a remaster so it will" holds up, there's this Resident Evil game coming out soon...
Re: What Happened To Spyro: Reignited Trilogy Coming To The Switch?
@Tasuki When the Switch inevitably drops off of a cliff at the announcement of the PS5.
Re: What Happened To Spyro: Reignited Trilogy Coming To The Switch?
@carlos82 The only thing going for getting Spyro on Switch instead of stuff like anything made in the RE Engine as you mention, is the engine that Spyro runs on.
I believe it goes by the name "Unreal Engine 4" or something. Something to do with Fortnite, Yoshi's Crafted World, Daemon X Machina...

Re: Video: Digital Foundry Takes A Look At Diablo III: Eternal Collection On Nintendo Switch
@Audiobrainiac The trick is learning to ignore your brain telling you not to say something.
Also be mentally ill, and weird enough to come up with these kinds of things.
Re: Video: Digital Foundry Takes A Look At Diablo III: Eternal Collection On Nintendo Switch
900p in 2018? Unacceptable.
It should be full 4k with HDR to include even colours not visible to the human eye, every frame should have a hidden ultraviolet only image that when collated with every other frame in the game creates a map to El Dorado and the game should do all that while wearing sexy lingerie because screw it I'm an entitled nerd who wants his jollies while having his cake and eating it too!
I've also been told by my business associates that to keep the lights on in the DF (Devil's Fornicator) offices I have to say the game card should taste like Cheerios and if not to call Blizzard's customer service at which point you will receive a replacement with a lifetime supply of phones in your pocket to play mobile titles while on the toilet recovering from that Mountain Dew and Dorito party you had last night that meant you had to skip work today to play more Diablo 3.
Oh, and your Mom says the mini pizzas are in the oven and you should take them out in half an hour.
