@obijuankanoobie Nothing legal I'd say, but putting a rival company in the spotlight when receiving an award can be awkward, the way he payed tribute felt just right.
@The-Chosen-one No chance Sony will bring physical media to a new portable device when they are moving away from it on the console side where there's more flexibility.
I hate how they changed the "turn off automatic renewal off" to "unsuscribe", I literally have just subscribed with a yearly sub code, I'm not "unsubscribing". They make it confusing and a hassle to turn off automatic renewal.
I admit I was not a fan of BotW OST at first, but after hundreds of hours in both games, I can say the music is as iconic as Koji Kondo's work, thank you Iwata san.
Image quality seems to be improved a bit but other that, looks just like it did on Wii U (new faces are debatable). Honestly a switch successor remaster would have been ideal.
@RupeeClock He said both Brawl and Kid Icarus have been his most ambitious projects in terms of scope. Considering the length of Kid Icarus and the Subspace Emissary it makes sense.
It should be mandatory for live service games to release an offline version to play with bots after a game shuts down, they can charge for it and let you keep all the items you spent money on. Why not preserving these games.
Is that an Ultrawide screen? If so, the aspect ratio might change when connected to the TV. Anyway, I think is way too safe and shows Nintendo is not as courageous to innovate as they used to.
Team past, there would be no idols without Callie and Marie! The amount of freshness the original game brought is something Nintendo has yet to replicate.
@CupidStunt Really? They are doing what Nintendon't providing us a way to preserve these games forever and you'll rather see them on a temporal service?
@Axecon I totally agree, what Bayo 3 accomplished on Switch is not easy feat. Unfortunately DF heavily criticized Bayo 3 when it released, mostly performance although I disagree with them.
@The_Pixel_King Mario Kart 8 was graphically impressive back in 2014 for the WiiU. However, with the visually sub-par booster pass which became the identity of Deluxe, I can see why it didn't make it into the list.

Re: Switch Emulator Ryujinx Might Not Be Dead, Despite Nintendo's Takedown
@Denoloco And that's the minority of switch emulator users, most people just want to play free games.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Confirmed For Switch
Image quality seems to be improved a bit but other that, looks just like it did on Wii U (new faces are debatable). Honestly a switch successor remaster would have been ideal.
Re: Switch Emulator Ryujinx Might Not Be Dead, Despite Nintendo's Takedown
Switch emulation is straight out piracy. You can walk the nearest game shop and pick up these games no excuse.

If they waited this long they might have found something worth fighting over, we know they had their eyes on Palworld from day one.

Re: Digital Foundry Hails Luigi's Mansion 3 As The Best-Looking Exclusive Switch Game
@The_Pixel_King Mario Kart 8 was graphically impressive back in 2014 for the WiiU. However, with the visually sub-par booster pass which became the identity of Deluxe, I can see why it didn't make it into the list.
