Lol, I'll update my systems since I always do that. But we all just know these updates are only there to prevent us from hacking, modding, etc. 3DS has also a update.
So you are hoping that Lord of the rings fails...why? Wouldn't it be cool if it turned out to be a cool series, better then the Hobbit trilogy? I certainly hope it will!
As for Resident evil, I still have to watch that. But it isn't high on my watch-list. That dance-scene was very scary though, lol!
For now only Sony is stealing from the consumers (from the big 3. All the other companies in the world are stealing. The war is a very bad excuse to get filthy rich), though it must be said: The Switch was overpriced from the start, especially with those faulty joy-cons!
Yes, I have read it. You wonder though where that "naive" mode comes from. Maybe Platinum just wanted to appease to the Woke community? Anyway, its just a option.
Not judged from the trailer, but we can't know for sure untill we have played it. As for Tencent: Maybe the game is full with microtransactions and nft's. Please no, but we don't know for sure untill the game gets reviewed.
I meant immediately resell-worth. Though on the other hand: This is not a single-player, so its not finishing it in one weekend and then selling it, like many people do.
@victordamazio
I agree, though I am not against dlc. Its a nice addition to a already full game. However, delivering a flimsy game and then filling it up with dlc, now that's bad. I know that in the case of Mario Strikers we are probably talking mostly about characters, but still.
Lol, people thinking Nintendo will buy them out...you guys are forgetting that pretty recently Tencent stepped into the fray? Its more likely that Tencent buys them out entirely, instead of Nintendo.
Besides Nintendo would totally destroy a franchise like Bayonetta if they would buy Platinum. You can be sure they would throw out the difficulty, the violence, the sexiness. Bayo 2 was already a bit easier (just a tiny bit though). But so far Bayo is mostly still Bayo, wich is a wonder with Nintendo involved.
I am not saying that Tencent is any good, its terrible. We have yet to see in Bayo 3 what damage they have done.
If there was a E3-Direct I would have watched it. But I seldom watch a Direct live, mostly because very often they only contain stuff I don't like. I always look trailers and news up afterwards on this site. Sometimes there's 1, maybe 2 worthwhile games tops. As long as Nintendo delivers a trailer from time to time I am good. I do want a E3-Direct next year though.
I don't think Nintendo is done with Directs. They will do at least a Direct centered on Bayonetta, or maybe Platinum will do that. And I am sure they will do another small Direct this year. The partner Direct was a partner Direct so that they could shine. Surprisingly there where some gems in there (Nier, Pacman world, Persona 4).
Isn't this faaaar to soon after Forgotten land? Anyway, looks like they will do a barrage of "filler" games again before a new hardhitter arrives (wich is fine, let them take their time). Anyway, game still looks pretty good. But if it is multiplayer-only, then its not for me.
Fi-na-lly!! Time to redeem yourself Platinum! Trailer looks great, although the game doesn't look as colorful as Bayo 2 (I guess some people may prefer the darkness of the first one, but I loved the color of the second one).
Looks like I was a bit confused. I was thinking number 5 was a totally new upcoming game, but it is the most recent game, the one with Joker. Still very good news though that it finally hits Switch. Might check it out in the future.
Looks fantastic, with more freedom, puzzles and quests. From what I remember the original didn't have much puzzles, apart from that pipe-puzzle and I think something with switches (but I am not that far yet).
Looks lovely. By the way, wasn't there any sign of Silksong in this Direct? It was recently in a Xbox showcase, but there it also didn't get a release-date.
That's a lot of game for your buck. Just in time for me to not download some from the eshop, just get the physical version on Switch!
I wonder though: Some of these games had 2 versions, Pokemon-style. Will that also be the case here?
If Capcom re-releases their whole Mega man library I guess they will also do those 2 titles after this collection (I forgot the name, but they where also turn-based rpg's).
Hmm, they quite delivered this partner Direct. Persona 4 and 5, Pacman world remake and finally Nier Automata. Nier Automata is a game I wanted to play for a long time, but I don't know if it will be this year. Huuuggge backlog!
Finally! Don't know if its for me (I am not that much into school-settings and I am not a gigantic rpg nut) but people say all the time its one of the finest jrpg's of recent years. And we also get the newest entry?! Wonders never cease.
A lot of comments get removed lately for several reasons. I guess it is needed, this site should stay friendly of course. But sometimes I wonder, won't they go to far? After all we can never see those removed comments, so we have to just coast blindly on the judgement of the mods. I hope they know what they are doing...
You already felt it in the opening-theme from Metroid Prime 3...sounds very similar to Halo. Ironically Prime 3 is the weakest of the 3 Prime games (still a great game though).
Ironically, Skyward sword was originally supposed to be more realistic. There are screenshots from a prototype. But then Miyamoto came with a painting of cezan and said he wanted it that way. So Miyamoto isn't always against cartoon/impressionistic stuff. Of course he made cartoony stuff in the past himself (A Link to the past, Mario world, Yoshi's island, etc).

Re: "Hard-As-Nails" Platformer RITE Is Jumping Onto Switch Soon
@sketchturner
Ok, I understand now. You can't make the game super easy by dying a lot.
Re: "Hard-As-Nails" Platformer RITE Is Jumping Onto Switch Soon
@sketchturner
Strange. I always heard that it was its defining feature: A rogue platformer that gets harder when you get better.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's New DLC Course Is Coming To Mario Kart Tour On Mobile
Haha, people where seriously thinking Nintendo would bring a new stage tailormade for Mariokart 8? Nope, just another mobile track!
Re: "Hard-As-Nails" Platformer RITE Is Jumping Onto Switch Soon
@sketchturner
Lol, you probably have to play it badly. I mean, I heard that the better you play the harder the game gets. So the solution is to play badly.

Re: Nintendo Says To Stop Using Its Wi-Fi USB Connector Due To Security Concerns
I used one in the past before I had a device with a wireless signal. At some point the stick even died. It doesn't matter anymore to me though.
Re: Mario Strikers: Battle League Update Adds Daisy, Shy Guy, And More
@EarthboundBenjy
Probably to diminish resell-worth? Because if the servers go down a game like this might be a bit worthless with so much content lost.
Re: Mario Strikers: Battle League Update Adds Daisy, Shy Guy, And More
That Daisy-lover on this site can come out of hiding, lol.

Re: Nintendo Confirms Physical Edition Of First Bayonetta, Launching This Year
That's great news for anyone who hasn't played it already. But why limited? Oh, Nintendo...
I have Bayo 1 and 2 on Wii u though.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Trailer Confirms Launch For This October
Fi-na-lly!! Time to redeem yourself Platinum! Trailer looks great, although the game doesn't look as colorful as Bayo 2 (I guess some people may prefer the darkness of the first one, but I loved the color of the second one).
Re: LEGO Confirms Rumours With New 18+ Bowser Set, Which You Can Actually Fight

Yeah, I was just joking. I know now that its not about cheeky content but just the difficulty of the set.
The set looks lovely by the way. I won't buy it (to expensive), but it looks great.
