@Danondorf Steamworld Heist Miiverse page was also pretty popular back then.
And I mean, Steamworld Heist is a 3DS game from 2015, Steamworld Dig 2 is from 2017, when every eShop launch were big. It makes no sense to talk about Heist in 2017 though.
I still use the Steamworld Heist theme in one of my 3DS.
But in the end, all of these games are (will be) on Switch now, so let us rejoice.
Once I was hyped for Treasurenauts, now everytime that I see something about Jools, I remember him complaining because Nintendo of America staff did not share info about the NX with him.
I'll admit that Final Fantasy II at #10 (as of this writing) made me do a double-take as this is widely regarded as the worst mainline Final Fantasy. Then I remembered that FF II (SNES) = FF IV.
Uh? Sorry, but if you had read the text beyond the title, you would not be confused, since the first sentece is "Final Fantasy IV (originally known as II) ".
just because a game is getting DLC doesn't mean it's incomplete
They are launching free DLC. So no excuses. They should be in the cart. Now, those who bought the physical version have an incomplete game, unless they go online and update it.
More like the XCom reboot, not the original. And for some of us the reboot sucks.
Also, as a fan of strategic games (the only games that I start at the hardest difficulty), I do not recommend Mario + Rabbids, since they are very weak as strategy games.
The first one is one of my biggest regrets on Switch (the other games that I regreted are Poly Bridge, Hentai Girls and Banner Saga).
If only Square ever did worthwhile sales on their TWO year old games.
This does not make sense at all. Why a game needs to be devalued because it is not new? The hours that a player can enjoy today are the same that I enjoyed at the launch.
The same people that only buy (and never play) games at deep discount are the ones complaining about layoffs and microtransations. Go figure...
@Aryanb1 Mario Kart is my favorite racing sim. By your logic, if it is a racing game, it does not matter if it is an arcade one, I can call it a simulator because mechanics does not matter.
Finally, Nintendo is trying to not be an insular company.
Now I just expect that NoA start to tell people that there is no "NoJ", but NCL instead. Even Reggie said NCL, but we still see people calling "NoJ", lol.

Fire Emblem 4 remake will be one of them. Makes sense.

Re: SteamWorld Heist Is Getting A Surprise Sequel On Switch This Summer
@Danondorf
What?! The first game was very popular on the 3DS. Had a gigantic AMA on r/nintendoswitch and a lot of people were engaging in the Twitter back then.
I saw more people talking about Steamworld Heist (3DS) than Steamworld Dig 2 (Switch).
Re: SteamWorld Heist Is Getting A Surprise Sequel On Switch This Summer
The first version of the 3DS game was great, until they dumbed down the difficulty.
The original Steamworld Heist was the best indie game on the 3DS.
Day one for me.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Indie World Showcase Predictions - What Do You Expect To See?
Only the first two Indie World (Nindies at the time) were good.
I will skip this one.

Mana Spark is not a roguelike though.
Re: QubicGames' Switch eShop Sale Takes Over 100 Games Down To Just $0.20 Each
No, thanks.
A bad game is still a bad game at US$ 0,20.
I'd rather play something good.
Re: Ex-PlayStation Dev Gio Corsi Joins Nintendo of America
Michel Steranka, Pokémon GO director, worked at Playstation too. No wonder that Pokémon GO revenue and players are decreasing month after month.
Nintendo of América work is already awful, and now we have another person from playstation working there.
sigh.

Re: Atooi's Hatch Tales For Switch Will Include "Over 2000" Level Uploads From 3DS Release Chicken Wiggle
@wideawakey And to think that Jools demise started when he ignored the 3DS in the failed KickStarter for Cult County...
Jools needs someone to head the company. He can not design and be the CEO at the same time.
Re: Atooi's Hatch Tales For Switch Will Include "Over 2000" Level Uploads From 3DS Release Chicken Wiggle
Once I was hyped for Treasurenauts, now everytime that I see something about Jools, I remember him complaining because Nintendo of America staff did not share info about the NX with him.
I used to like him and his games though. :/

Please, launch Dragon Quest IX - Part Two instead.
Re: The Pokémon Company Reveals Date And Venue For 2024 World Championships

Bring the "Worlds" to New Zeland, Germany or Portugal.
Re: Nintendo Updates The URLs For Its European Website Domains
It is good to see Nintendo trying to be a real multinational. They still are a bit too insular.
Next step is to truly expando to South América and Middle East.
Arabic and portuguese localizations are a must for Switch 2 games.
Re: Feature: 13 Studios That Should Take A Nintendo Series For A Genre Spin
Uh, no. Please, no.
Every Nintendo game made by others are worse than the games made by Nintendo itselves.
Re: Splatoon 3's Latest Splatfest Chucks Cute Baby Animals Into The Ring
Well, it is Autumn for us at the South.
The same team needed 6 Animal Crossing before to acknowledge the Southern Hemisphere , so perhaps in Splatoon 6 they will do this.

Re: Poll: So, Do You Prefer Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Or Tears Of The Kingdom?
Breath of the Wild is a superior game.
I am not a Zelda fan, but BotW is probably the greatest game ever.
Re: Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Will Now Arrive "One Week Earlier" On Switch
I still can not understand why to not launch the expansion for those who already have the game.
I will not buy the same again just for the new content.
Re: Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown Is Already On Sale (US)
Ubisoft already devaluing their game, sigh.
If they do not care, I will not care either.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Strategy Games
@Diogmites
The most underrated gem on Switch. Too bad that the remake are not avaiable at my eShop.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Strategy Games
Sorry, but only people who do not play strategic games would put Mario + Rabbids on a list about best strategy games.

Re: Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown Post-Launch Roadmap Details Future Updates And DLC
I miss when games were complete.
The only valid DLC, for me, are the cosmetics ones. I buy every bikini DLC when avaiable.

Re: Summer Game Fest 2024 Gets A Date For Its Opening Live Showcase
Never watched and since the past ones made zero buzz, I guess that not out of ordinary was announced there.
I can not stand this guy and his big (yet shallow) ego.
Re: Creators Of New Switch Emulator 'Suyu' Hope To Avoid Nintendo's Wrath
@Perpetual_Change Nintendo of America has ZERO to do with this, they are just a PR branch.
This is NCL and they are still very insular.
Re: Nintendo's MAR10 Day Sale Brings Discounts To Select Games And DLC (North America)

Re: Nintendo's MAR10 Day Sale Brings Discounts To Select Games And DLC (North America)
@rushiosan
Why? I do not get it. Of course that we always want to pay less, but why a game should be devalued because was not launched in the current year?
A person buying the game today will have the same content (if not more) that I had at the launch.
The logic that a game should be cheaper because is "old" is flawed and used more by people addicted to buy instead of play it.
Re: Review: Unicorn Overlord (Switch) - A Crowning Tactical RPG Achievement For Vanillaware
@ottoecamn The sad thing is that Europe localize from the USofA localization, thus everyone outside Japan get the censored version. sigh.
Re: Review: Unicorn Overlord (Switch) - A Crowning Tactical RPG Achievement For Vanillaware
The day 1 patch dumbed down the game, turning it more easier.
So -1 point for that.

Re: Upcoming Roguelike 'Power Of Ten' Brings Asteroids-Style Space Shooting To Switch
But that is a roguelite though.
Sorry, but I can not trust a developer that do not know the genre of his game.
I will pass, because I like roguelike but dislike roguelites. And this one is not a roguelike.
Re: Triangle Strategy Producer Celebrates Second Anniversary With New Artwork Reveal
I just want an Harder mode. Instead to turn enemies into sponges, let them be more clever and have more enemies.
Also, cut 2/3 of the bla-bla-bla...
Great game though. Frederica S2.
Re: Poll: So, Have You Finished Pokémon Legends: Arceus Yet?
Only thing that I did not do was to complete all checks for every pokémon, but I did the min to be a fullstar member.
The game is very boring to be honest. I hope that Z-A is more engaging.

Re: Bravely Default Producer Says To Expect An Announcement This Year
Bravely Tactics.
And ditch the ATB in the main series, we do not need that.
Re: Talking Point: Which Xbox Games Would You Like To See Come To Switch?
To be honest, none.
Only games in non Nintendo consoles that I want to play are Bombastic and Virtua Fighter.
Re: Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Doubles The Length Of The Original
I will play this, but would be cool if we could buy only the extra content.
Why do I need to buy the original game again? :/
