Re: Mario Kart World Doesn't Include A 200cc Difficulty Mode

Henners

200cc didn't work in Mario Kart 8, because none of the tracks were designed with 200cc in mind. Mario Kart World did have the opportunity to change that, especially with the whole "drive to the next course" thing they have going on. They'll probably add it in a patch if sales are bad or they've properly stabilised the online servers.

Re: Nintendo Direct: Mario Kart World: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate It?

Henners

I didn't know what to expect, but I felt underwhelmed. Maybe because the free roam felt like the biggest change to Mario Kart, so it had the most to prove. What seems to be the biggest feature are the DS style missions, which was nice but that's it. I thought they might have had some kind of custom cup creator, that you could share through Online Tournaments.
Really didn't like all the whole outfits mechanic, just Nintendo thinking that something that exists to squeeze money from whales in a mobile game, it's a good idea to put it in a full console game.
They could have least given the Cow a name.
What I will say that is positive, is that the music sounded excellent and I'm very much looking forward to the game being added to Nintendo Music, hopefully sooner than later.

Re: Community: What Questions About Switch 2 Do You Still Have For Nintendo?

Henners

1. Has Joy Con drift been eradicated?
2. What is the account transfer process like? How can I transfer my Switch account from my Switch 1, to 2, as I trade-in my old console?
3. If the Zelda updates are free to Expansion Pass tier, are they lost if the subscription isn't renewed? Will they require an internet check each time I try to play them?
4. If I have no interest in Gamechat, can the mic be turned off, or is it always listening to me?

Re: Hands On: I Didn't Think I Could Love BOTW Or TOTK More, Then I Played Them On Switch 2

I really wish Tears had some sort of serious update. At worst it could have been a "Master Mode" like Breath had. At best it could have been a DLC pack, using the extra hardware power with extra shrines, more story content focused in the Deeps, more rooms you could add to your house. A mobile app, where you a few locations will give me some extra lore, isn't enough to make me go for the upgrade.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour Price Has Been Confirmed

Henners

This is exactly what the interface should be when you do that first time set up on the new console. Something to explore whilst the console downloads all the old digital games, save data etc from your old Switch account in the background.
This is just the answer to the question; "What if we copied Astro's Playroom, but got rid of all of those fun, vibrant platforming levels, and replaced them with bits where we explain how our patents work?"
