These are my kind of people! Like many have said, I'm an introvert trying to escape from people when I game, not have a chat with them. This is a useless product for me.
I prefer Nintendo consoles and games. I trust them to put out a quality product that I will enjoy. Prices are going up, it's inevitable. I purchase maybe 5 games a year, and that's pushing it. I'll be fine.
I chose walmart.com and got in line. After an hour, I gave up and did other things. Went back again and was able to preorder an NS2 quite easily, believe it or not. Checked a few minutes ago and Walmart still had the preorder button live.
If there are framerate drops, I don't notice them. I do notice the fuzziness around the perimeter of the screen. Of course, they did that with LA and I didn't care for it in that game, either.
I have been avoiding any and everything about this game, but this is the kind of news I get excited about. I also allowed myself one launch trailer today, but that's it. No more til tomorrow!
Directly, there's not too much to see. I must direct myself to more positive thoughts, a new direction if you will. Subliminal messaging is never DIRECT.
Generically positive message about Charles Martinet and wishing him well. Make sure not to say anything bad about the great Chris Pratt. And my Nintendo Life comment is done.
I'm at that point with Minish Cap right now. About to face Vaati and his multiple forms. Not sure if I'll even fight him. I'd much rather continue to fuse Kinstones and collect figurines.
Picked mine up from GameStop today. Got home, looked at it, realized the seal had already been broken. Took it out, it was already on and paused. Called gamestop and explained the situation. They're holding an unopened one for me and they apologized. So, I'm a little perturbed but am happy with their customer service.

Re: "If You're A Real Fan, You'll Find A Way" - Borderlands 4 Dev Gives Tone Deaf Response To Price Concerns
I don't play his games anyway, so what he has to say is meaningless.

Re: Talking Point: With Prices Rising, Are Your Gaming Habits Changing?
I prefer Nintendo consoles and games. I trust them to put out a quality product that I will enjoy. Prices are going up, it's inevitable. I purchase maybe 5 games a year, and that's pushing it. I'll be fine.

Re: Poll: Did You Get A Switch 2 Purchase Invite From Nintendo Yet? (Europe)
US citizen here. Waiting patiently to see when/if Nintendo will send out invites to my f'd up country.
Re: Anniversary: The Legend Of Zelda: The Minish Cap Turns 20 Today
The musical themes in this wonderfully charming game are superb. Minish Cap holds a special place in this gamer's cold, black heart.
Re: Reaction: With Xenoblade Chronicles X On Switch, The Wii U's Demise Is Complete
Maybe Switch 2 will have Wind Waker Remastered ported to it. Better yet, a sequel to WW. Ooh, that'd be sweet.
Re: Review: The Smurfs - Dreams (Switch) - Not Quite Smurf, But Surprisingly Smurf
What the Smurf?! Definitely not smurfing this. Still smurfing Zelda: Echoes of Smurfdom right now.
Re: Poll: Are You Bothered By The Frame Rate In Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom?
If there are framerate drops, I don't notice them. I do notice the fuzziness around the perimeter of the screen. Of course, they did that with LA and I didn't care for it in that game, either.
Re: Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom's Map Is Eight Times The Size Of Link's Awakening's
I have been avoiding any and everything about this game, but this is the kind of news I get excited about. I also allowed myself one launch trailer today, but that's it. No more til tomorrow!
Re: Nintendo Announces New Switch OLED 'Super Mario Bros. Wonder' Bundle
Gotta unload all that stock to make room for the new machine. Good way to do it, too, as I love my OLED and play Wonder daily.

Re: Does Astro Bot's Super Mario 'Inspiration' Cross A Line? Fans Seem Divided
I love Astrobot. I'm thinking about getting a PlayStation Portal so I can play it in handheld. I much prefer handheld to TV.

Indie and 3rd party games. Nothing but filler to me.

Re: Nintendo Event Cancellation Suspect Charged For Sending Threats Via Contact Forms
@Frailbay30 Good point. You're right, it could be ANY game, regardless of its quality.
Re: Nintendo Event Cancellation Suspect Charged For Sending Threats Via Contact Forms
Curious as to what "s****y game" he was referring to.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Indie World Showcase Predictions - What Do You Expect To See?
If it's an indie showcase, I'll expect to see nothing that interests me, just like every other indie direct.
Re: Warner Bros. Doubles Down On Its Commitment To Live Service Games
As if I needed yet another reason not to buy games from them. I'll take one and done games every day of the week.
Re: Rumour: A Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase Will Reportedly Drop Next Week
@Bolt_Strike Thank you! I appreciate your response.
Re: Rumour: A Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase Will Reportedly Drop Next Week
So what...only 3rd party stuff? Or am I misunderstanding the term "partner showcase"?
Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Release Windows For Major Upcoming Switch Games
Directly, there's not too much to see. I must direct myself to more positive thoughts, a new direction if you will. Subliminal messaging is never DIRECT.
Re: Poll: So, How Would You Rate That Nintendo Indie World Showcase?
Worst. Indie Direct. Ever.
Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For November And December 2023
So much shovelware.
Re: Pop Blisters And Rip Out Ingrown Toenails With 'Foot Clinic', Launching This Week
That picture is making me sick to my stomach. Please remove it. It's gross.

Re: Steamworld Build Plasters Up A December Release Date On Switch
At least there's Steamworld 1 & 2. A couple of my favorite games!

Re: Review: Disney Illusion Island - Mickey Mouse's Metroidvania Is Magical
Excellent review! Very excited for this title. It will replace Tears of the Kingdom in my Switch for a while.
Re: Surprise! The Mario Movie's Digital Release Is Out Now (US)
The rental is just as much as the purchase. I don't think so. I will wait until my library gets it and I'll watch it for free.
Re: Struggling To Build Cool Stuff In Zelda: TOTK? This Fan-Made Site Can Help
Never been a fan of building stuff. It's very off-putting in TotK. I avoid it like the plague.

Re: Best Nintendo Switch Roguelikes, Roguelites And Run-Based Games
I despise the words "roguelike", "roguelite", "metroidvania", and most especially, "Shmup".
Re: Poll: When Will You Be Watching The Super Mario Bros. Movie?
I'll watch it when it becomes available at my local library.
Re: Finally! Jakks Pacific Has Officially Revealed Its Mario Movie Toys
They managed to capture the creepiness from the movie Mario face, especially.
Re: UK Charts: Fire Emblem Engage Bags Franchise's Second Biggest Boxed Launch
I could go for a boxed lunch. Ham and swiss, preferably.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Fire Emblem Engage?
I rate it a zzz... out of zzz... Not my type of game.
Re: Poll: Rate Your Favourite Switch Games Of The Year 2022
Whole buncha nothing for me. I'm still doing playthroughs of last year's GOTY. That and Bowser's Fury, too.
Re: Never Played Mario + Rabbids? Nintendo's Video Guide Is Here To Help
I'll play Mario minus Rabbids, but not plus.

That's a big ol' NO for me.
Re: Soapbox: I Never Completed Breath Of The Wild, And I Never Will
I'm at that point with Minish Cap right now. About to face Vaati and his multiple forms. Not sure if I'll even fight him. I'd much rather continue to fuse Kinstones and collect figurines.
Re: The Game Awards GOTY Is The Last Of Us Part 2
What do I think about the GOTY? Not much.
Re: Hardware Review: Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. - A Gorgeous Object That Leaves You Wanting More
Picked mine up from GameStop today. Got home, looked at it, realized the seal had already been broken. Took it out, it was already on and paused. Called gamestop and explained the situation. They're holding an unopened one for me and they apologized. So, I'm a little perturbed but am happy with their customer service.
Re: Image & Form Reminds Us That It's Making More SteamWorld Games
Dig 3 would be really nice. I don't care for the Heist or Quest games.
