Re: Feature: Nintendo May Win Its Case Against The US Government, But Tariffs Are Here To Stay

JGruns

@Misima I actually feel fine. I don’t get caught up in all the news too much. You can be swayed either way depending on who you listen to. Some people on here including you have been swayed a little too hard one way. That’s fine and all but you end up being wrong more often than not for both sides. Tariffs suck but complaining on a Nintendo website won’t change anyone’s mind or affect anything.

Re: Chris Pratt On Voicing Mario: Says It's "Unlike Anything You've Heard In The Mario World"

Very tough situation. I won’t judge until I hear it or see a trailer, but the only pick I really can’t see working out is Donkey Kong. No way Rogan can pull that off. Of course they probably didn’t make the movie for the people that play the games. If they did they wouldn’t have cared about such big names for the voices. They would’ve used the ones we are familiar with.

Re: Metroid Dread Staff Say They've Been Left Out Of The Game's Credits, MercurySteam Responds

I know I’m a minority in my stance. But this just proves the internet is looking to be upset about something. Should they be included-probably. But if you leave a company and someone takes over your role they are going to get the credit when it’s finished. That’s the case for everything. I think it’s a bit of an over reaction to protest buying the game so vehemently over some people that quit along the way. These are just my thoughts and you’re entitled to yours as well.

Re: Court Orders Popular ROM Website To "Destroy" All Of Its Unauthorised Nintendo Games

JGruns

Nintendo could reduce this by offering many many more of their retro games. If an online community can do it with no money but pure dedication I’m certain Nintendo could do it as well. Why they don’t is another question. Please note I’m too scared to use Roms or download Roms so I own games physically at a painfully expensive cost. I wish I could play road rash, Mickey Mouse (genesis) on the go. Still no way for me to do that. I understand why people go the route they do.

Re: Soapbox: A Strange Desire For Switch Sports And A Return To Wii's Wuhu Island

JGruns

Nice to see some different opinion on “soapbox” as most have come from one source lately. Not that it’s bad just refreshing to see another perspective. Although this shouldn’t be a soapbox because I’m craving a motion control sport game as well! Recently hooked up the Wii U to play some of them. Wish I could do it on my switch.

Re: Switch OLED Upgrades Reportedly Cost Nintendo "Around $10 More Per Unit"

JGruns

@Octane not to be combative, but it’s very hard to make money. Most r&d is done for the OG switch but adding something like a different screen requires a lot of research. Millimeters make a difference in something fitting or not. The back stand, getting the right supplier, paying for the mold, machine setup etc some of those are 10 grand a pop. That’s assuming everything runs smoothly with the supplier. So while it’s easy to look at unit cost of additional parts it does not include a lot of the costs Nintendo already incurred. Lastly they are going to need money to fund their future switches or systems and that’s what profit should include.

Re: Back Page: To All The Low-Level Enemies I've Slaughtered

JGruns

Hmmm I’ve never given it much thought. I’d say let the creators create the games as they wish and with all these indies those give the options of being more peaceful. In the LOU2 I wish I had the option to kill at the end as I was able to the entire game.
