Don't fully understand what the point of this article was. I'm sure loads of famous people play Nintendo games. Just because Nishikori told Yahoo he likes Pokemon isn't neccasarily news worth imo.
Also the article questions why Nintendo used Nadal to promote Mario Tennis rather then the aformentioned Nishikori; logic would imply it's probably because Nadal is likely more well-known.
@Folderoll Yes they did refund the item, eventually. Even still, I'm perfectly within my right to badmouth them after I had to deal with their customer service.
I ordered from them via the Game.co.uk Marketplace. Item was either faulty or inaccurately described, and they refused to offer me a refund. (Which I was entitled to by law, in both of the above scenarios).
"Nintendo seems to have dialled back its efforts to moderate it quite so extensively"
I have nothing against this article, but if this quote were true, how come I got banned four times in a row, with the second and third being for pretty much no reason other than a user called Mii King hating me for no apparent reason?
I wonder if PF2M and Arian's miiverse exploits had to do with this? The timing seems a little too perfect. Although, if Nintendo don't like modders couldn't they make it region free? Which is a reason why a large amount of people mod anyway. In all seriousness, this does seem like a good idea.
It's very clearly fake. Even if Nintendo does give out units to YouTubers to promote, they wouldn't do so this early surely, and where else would Etika get one. Even then, if Nintendo give YouTubers them, I doubt they would choose Etika anyway, given his record.
Every time I click one of these articles, I do it with a small ray of hope that Smash 64 will be available on Wii U. Every week that small ray of hope gets smaller.
@rjejr Yeah, I did have the NFC reader myself, but I traded it in to my local Grainger Games last week as I no longer have use for it myself due to getting an n3ds for Christmas. I don't know why it happens either.
Might pick up Awakening at that price. We're i live it's almost impossible to find retail copies. At even when you do they still cost nearly £40 preowned.

My local CEX store has a preowned Switch in there for £350.
Even though there's Game, Grainger Games, Argos, CoolSpot Games all selling brand new ones for the normal price.

Re: Super Mario Run Is Finally Coming To Android Next Week
Is there like a free level? I'll play that if there is but I have better things to spend £8 on than a mobile game.
EDIT: Reading the Play Store listing reveals I can play a small amount free.
Re: Amazon UK Offers Nintendo Switch Downloads, Cost More Than Boxed Equivalents
If you're going to pay full eShop price, you might as well just pay from the eShop.

Re: GameSeek States It'll Keep Selling Nintendo Switch for £198.50 Up to Release
@LoliNoxTan I emailed them, they refused to help.
Eventually I got a refund, after two weeks of back and forth emailing.

I ordered from them via the Game.co.uk Marketplace. Item was either faulty or inaccurately described, and they refused to offer me a refund. (Which I was entitled to by law, in both of the above scenarios).
Definitely not ordering from them again.

Re: Junichi Masuda on the Future of Pokémon for the Switch
@Nintendoh How?
This is GameFreak saying they're going to wait before deciding about releasing Pokémon on the Switch. Clearly proving the rumour.
Re: Junichi Masuda on the Future of Pokémon for the Switch
Hopefully this allows more people realise Pokémon Stars is fake.
Re: Rumour: GameCube Virtual Console Coming To Nintendo Switch

Yup guys, the answer is definitely Saint Mario.
Re: Nintendo Is Looking For Hackers Who Can Discover 3DS Vulnerabilities

Umm, since when have you been a fan of Nintendo, EA?
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch Release Date and Key Games Outlined
If the system is just Wii U ports, I'm just gonna Switch to Xbox.
Re: Rumour: New Version of Pokémon Sun And Moon, Pokémon Stars, Is Coming to the Nintendo Switch
Hmm, Game Freak seems to be steering away from the so called 'third version' in recent generations.
If anything, I personally believe only spin offs will be on the Switch, until a new generation. Black 2 and White 2 weren't on the 3ds.
Re: Weirdness: Streamer Claims To Have Nintendo Switch, Flaunts It During Live Broadcast
It's very clearly fake. Even if Nintendo does give out units to YouTubers to promote, they wouldn't do so this early surely, and where else would Etika get one.
Even then, if Nintendo give YouTubers them, I doubt they would choose Etika anyway, given his record.

Re: Debut Pokémon Sun and Moon Footage is Expected on 3rd April
Didn't they promise something similar with ORAS, then just show us Groudon and Kyogre?
EDIT: It seems that they did.
