@MoonKnight7 I haven't been replaying Ninja Gaiden since the Wii...I never bought it.
Though it would be nice to see them do some things akin to what they did on 3DS and Wii U: Give us games we never got initially. For instance Earthbound and Mega Man 6 in the EU weren't available until 2013.
This guy is right. Because its what Nintendo in PR has stated the point of the device is. Same as people got an idea about LABO despite Nintendo saying otherwise and low and behold, Nintendo was right.
Given certain YouTubers already have codes and are playing the game, at least that's what they say to explain it, is it possible they leaked the game themselves? Especially since some of them follow the hacking scene a little too close for comfort.
@Ttimer5 I did know that. Hence I said "forefiting a collective £20000 in discounted eShop purchases"
I specifically said it was in eShop discounts. But regardless that's still £20000 they aren't making from eShop purchases, but is probably subsidised by the volume of subscriptions they have to play Tetris 99 in the first place.
So Nintendo makes no money from the direct sale of this game, had to pay Tetris for the license, put time and money in to develop it, and is now forefiting a collective £20000 in discounted eShop purchases?
@Tasuki Yeah the head of the US branch is responsible for the technology and products developed internally ag the parent company in Japan.
Okay. Yup. Good job there bud. Haven't you got a site to run or something? I know its not your job as you're not responsible for what happens behind closed doors, but I think it's fair as clearly you are the responsible one.
@KingdomHeartsFan If you wanna see what a Furukawa led Nintendo is producing, you may wait a while and need to be patient given he hasn't even been in the job for a year yet, and games just dont grow on trees.
Remember they were also adamant about Pokemon Stars and then backpeddled that crap very swiftly into "It was just for internal testing for engines". Despite insisting it was a retail thing.
I know y'all got bills to pay but come the eff on.
@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.

Re: Random: Nintendo Reminds Us That Yes, Switch Will Eventually Stop Getting NES Games
I mean...if people didnt know this was going to happen I'd have to ask if they knew any recently released NES games.
Coz ya know...hasnt been many of those made lately so of course its finite.
That being said, they did make a game specifically for the service so...
Re: Rumour: This Year's 'Budget' Switch Could Take The 2DS Route And Ditch A Killer Feature
Question.
How can they remove HD Rumble in a model for kids...and also push LABO at kids?
Like...did no one catch that?
Re: Nintendo Labo, Pokémon, Smash Bros. And More Receive BAFTA Games Awards 2019 Nominations
As usual, due to the UK nature, its very skewed instead of representing the whole industry worldwide.

Not in a capitalist economy they wont.

@Heavyarms55 Its not AS bad as it used to be.
Now if Crackdown 3 hit number 1 we would have a national crisis...

@AlexSora89 Right after it was revealed in October 2016.
Re: Respawn Would "Love" To Bring Apex Legends To Switch But Has Nothing To Reveal Right Now
Im fairly sure Respawn would laugh and insult the system first.
Oh wait, they did.

Nice start to the article there.
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.
Re: Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster And Final Fantasy XII Receiving Physical Releases In Europe
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.
