Re: The Switch 2 Scalpers Are Already Out In Force

Frustratingly, the consoles listed on eBay for £125.00 over the asking price are selling. This really sends the wrong message to the scalpers who will continue to fleece people of more money than they can afford to spend on a new console. Shame on them.

Re: Dedicated Video Game Platforms To Remain Nintendo's Core Focus, Says Iwata

@ferthepoet Read the article. Nowhere does it say that is what Nintendo is proposing for the future.

If anything, Wii Fit and Wii Sports are examples of previous attempts at "Quality of Life" / "Heath" products so the next platform sounds as though it will be integral with those types of products. Maybe the return of the Vitality Sensor?

Needless to say, this does not sound like Nintendo are positioning themselves to compete directly with Sony or Microsoft in the future and, as such, will distance themselves further from the current 3rd Party models.

One can only assume that if they tap into another area of unexploited consumers that 3rd Party developers and publishers will rush back to create their own "Quality of Life" products for Nintendo.

I am both curious and nervous about the future of Nintendo but will continue to enjoy the 3DS and Wii U for the time being.

The Nintendo Life presence at this year's Expo was unprecedented!

Congratulations to all of the team for making it an enjoyable time for all in attendance, even if I didn't get round to any Monster Hunting...

Managed to Streetpass a few staffers in the PS4 queue as well!

Re: Disney Infinity Pricing Emerges

Its worth pointing out that this is currently available from Toys R Us in the UK for £49.99 across all versions. That is £15 off the RRP.

In addition, you can use the voucher code 9908087559996 to get a further £5 off.

I've already pre-ordered the Wii U version. Hope this craps all over Skylanders
