Well what do you expect him to say? The game is what 5years in the making and a labor of love. I respect his work.I look forward to forming my OWN opinion.
I'm also very annoyed that the staff here takes his comment as a personal attack on your journalistic skills...Nintendo life doesn'thave the final say. Get over yourselves
These are not games per say. I don't feel like Nintendo life should review these visual novels.The dev doesn't shy away from that fact.but I guys any press is good press?
Listening to a recent radio free Nintendo podcast was hilarious. If you listened to James and why the creators recent interview has caused noa to distance themselves from this title. Speculation of course
I can't believe people are still willing to upgrade.After the non existing support of new 3ds titles. I hope it bombs .so they stop treating customers like crap. And I hope people realize that it's not worth upgrading for one game..And I have a new 3ds xl!Reggie is the master of putting spin o n things . He says we got the Mario at launch we wanted. He refers to digital exclusives in the form of one game ,binding of Isaac that's yet to come out..Nintendo lies!
this is a wonderful review. It should bring people in who are on the fence. Im honestly surprised it didnt receive a 10. there was no knocks on the 'game' . Has any game wiiu game received a ten? If not, i doubt a drawing application would be the first..
This seems to be the definitive Dr Mario. I bought Dr Luigi but that online community is dead! Hopefully they would update it? I just don't see any incentive to buy a re skinned title twice
Pretty good week. Unfortunately nothing for me. Theres great sales out there.But i should stop buying games on the basis of a bargain. If I were to ever play said game,I would play it as soon as I bought it..And i dont!
Overall solid week. I'll give that pnd demo a try. I'll be upgrading my paper Mario club N reward..I'll also probably buy art of. Balance depending on the price..I got 20$ to spend,let's go!
I have to agree with the sentiment of some users here. I left my Nintendo news because of their ignorant comment section,and click bait articles. Nintendo life's user base is large enough where you guys don't have to write in 'what do you think?' To elicit a response(every time)... Your opinion pieces are well thought out and I respect your reviews. But don't dumb down the articles. And the comment section will reflect that too...
I'm picking up tetro bot and possibly affordable space adventures..picking up xenoblade 3d physical. So I gotta make sure my money's right for any digital purchases
@moonknight7 I personally dont frequent their site any longer.I found that review through their podcast. They seem to be anti Nintendo. But there isnt a major game site out there that isnt. I havent started on my copy of CNS as of yet but i found their review to really be unfair. kind of like NLifes review of boxboy! But i digress ,they are all just opinions. And we should just value our own
Religion is off limits. But offensive gameplay themes aren't?Who understands you Nintendo. You can't straddle the fence and protect the kids at the same time. I mean whatever I'm still buying it
This is a definite buy for me . It got a high recommendation from the famicast. Plus it's made by Hal laboratories (kirby) ...and puzzle games are timeless!
What a scum bag move. To take all the praise and exposure from n life,and the eshop. Then sell those same people out who put your name out there..go away...Now this leaves just treefall studios.. !
Geez the comments section here is turning into my Nintendo news...these threads should come with a disclaimer. :warning,reading these comments might compromise your intelligence
20 price points do seem a bit tricky for me.no matter the size of the game, i never feel the price of an indie game should be 20. Especially when there's no ddp,club Nintendo coins etc.. I still want this game. And wish to support these developers. Because this looks to be a quality product. Still may be a niche game though...
I got this game immediately upon release..unfortunately I can't speak in whistles and stomps.whatever message this game was going for,it was lost to its audience.. there is nothing appealing about a game that plays hard to get. Hopefully Rice is the success that catapults then back to green.that market isn't saturated on wiiu
I love how on this site there's more comments and interest in New ips that aren't coming to Nintendo. Rather than new ips like this one that are coming to Nintendo. Support with your dollars not empty words. Anyway I'm buying this . Got my copy reserved..
Nintendo is.not lending Any of its precious iconic characters to shovel knight. Not that SK needs it. It stands on its own merits.. well maybe balloon fighter will come to save the day!
These cases are wonderful. I wanted one for the longest. But if you buy a bulky case like this,you are stuck carrying around your 3ds like a purse. I much prefer my suede club Nintendo draw string pouch. It's much more pocketable.. and cleans my glossy new 3ds.. but diff strokes for diff folks
the best way nintendo tackles this problem is by offering at a limit of one per customer these exclusive items from store.nintendo.com
you cant stop this trend.but make your exclusive items just that .but to visitors to your site. Theres a huge tidal wave and the only way to combat it ,is to sell on their own terms
Question,is there a difference between the DK snes games and their gb counterparts? I do plan to buy them all if they are in fact separate experiences...thanks! Redemption song NOA
Noa knows by bringing the regular sized new 3ds with face plates would negate their ability to sell 200+$ @ limited editions..and shove them down our throats. With their artificial scarcity...it's a shame really. they are so full of baloney
Looks so nice im buying it twice..For me and the kids.Im ok with the reviews.Kirby games arent generally complex. executing puzzles too complex would seem too difficult for the target audience....To me this is another positive step in the franchise that kids of all ages can grow with
when upgrading,The transfer process when going through the pc was only a 30 minute or less ..and I was switching from a 32sd to 32micro SD... really painless..I'm going with the physical. On wiiu I prefer digital . But I have butt loads of space with a 1 tb hard drive..
What's up with NLife pandering to these low level developers? Is it because he has an active presence on this site? It doesn't change the fact that these games are apart of the problem that the eshop indie scene has become..I'm not here to hate. I just wish n life wasn't putting out these articles..slow news day or not. We deserve better..
