Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Life's Favourite Games From Switch's First Year

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I for one think it's an absolute joke that Splatoon 2 wasn't included in the poll. It's the literal definition of a travesty, and NintendoLife should feel horrific for the pure, unadulterated shame they have brought upon themselves with this inexcusable and unforgivable assault upon all of us. I know I won't sleep tonight knowing it was left off.

Re: Analysts Suggest Nintendo Switch May Have Sold 14.6 Million, Trounced Wii U Lifetime Sales

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Fair shout, I did infer a bit there But even so, if you're saying they should make less of them, that still implies you think they shouldn't be doing certain ports. Considering they're are usually outsourced or as you rightly say, take very little effort, their effect on the development of new games should be negligable. The reason I find your opposition to them confusing is because there's a very clear reason as to why they're doing it, that being that they didn't sell that well first time around because they were on a platform that flopped. And easy money, obviously I mean, if you were running Nintendo wouldn't this be exactly what you'd do as a business strategy?

Re: Nintendo's Damon Baker Hints At An Even Bigger Year For Switch in 2018

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I'm inclined to agree with that, however, that doesn't mean we aren't going to get some spectaular experiences this year. I imagine Prime won't be out this year but I have a sneaking suspicion we're gonna get Pokemon in time for Christmas, even if it's a touch later than the usual "fall" window. And in the meantime, everyone seems to be talking about the same stuff, Animal Crossing, Smash Bros and virtual console. I think, given how good Nintendo has been with the Switch so far, they're gonna give us what we want. I mean they're making Prime 4, so at this point I no longer know what to expect, but I do know that miracles can happen

Re: Soapbox: Let 2018 Be The Year The Third-Party Exclusive Takes Over On Nintendo Switch

Jacob1092

I cannot see the point in third party exclusives as opposed to first party. As a consumer, to me there's no difference. They may as well be first party. The only thing Nintendo needs to focus on is continuing the one big release a month thing. That sustains interest and makes you want to stay in the loop with regard to what's coming up for Switch. And start building hype for the new Zelda already, concept art me!
