It's more of a comment on certain companies hiring people who are ill-equipped for jobs based on diversity focused hiring practices, and how Japanese companies don't fall into that trap while western companies do.

Thanks for your input though 😏

Unfortunately no gay sex stuff was uncovered.

Typical Nintendo, living in the past.

Am I alone in not caring at all about doing this stuff to their island?

Mine looks like it is from the GameCube version, and it doesn't bother me at all. Just trees and grass.

@Aaron09

I don't think you are familiar with his artwork...

I don't believe the book, because I've actually seen in-game dialogue where one of my villagers, Pate, told me he saw Flicky and C.J tossing each other's salad

@theJGG

Ya, and we won't need sports, or concerts, or airplanes, or movie theaters, or beaches...or anything with groups of people getting together!!

It's sooooo scary out there!!! 🙄

"Although it may be just a video game, virtual items and characters hold emotional significance for players"

If we are lucky, the Coronavirus will wipe us all out so the planet can start fresh

Why buy Diet Animal Crossing when we have the real thing now?

The biggest takeway from this is that NintendoLife must give their writers extremely tight deadlines

@PlaybunnyLucy

A story about poo is still a story, it's just not an important one.

Just as this one wasn't important, but it's still a story.

I think you are confusing "news" (which this isn't) with a "story" (which this is).

If you want to pretend you are operating at a higher level than the rest of the people on a Nintendo website, you might want want to pick a better argument 🤫

@PlaybunnyLucy

It became a "story" when a television news program followed up on it and actually went to a source (Nintendo) to get clarification on it. Then they produced...low and behold...a STORY on it!

I would have thought our resident NintendoLife legal expert would have understood that 😔

@JR150

I don't believe that for a second. Maybe "official" markets have stopped the practice, and possibly temporarily, but that crap will still be available somewhere.

Life lesson: Never believe a single thing you hear the Chinese government announce!

This film was banned in many Western countries for the extreme acts of animal cruelty and abuse captured on film, with audiences calling it "disgusting".

However, it was actually quite popular upon its initial release in China, with most of the audience agreeing that the movie "looked delicious!"

I was going to buy a microwave the other day but the store was sold out, so I bought an oven instead.

^ Proof Covid-19 attacks the brain

This is like literally the worst news to come out of this whole virus thing literally!!! 😭😭😭

@HappyMaskedGuy

No clue why you tagged me in response, as I sh** on China in every single one of my comments on this article 😂

@echoplex

But Chinese people don't eat sushi, they eat bats apparently

@edgedino

He is calling the dead Chinese people (who number in the tens of thousands) "Pokemon", because he is getting his racial caricatures confused. That's the worst part.

Imagine doing a report on a the Chinese communist regimes phony memorial for a virus they have and are continuing to cover-up 😂

""It’s very much like being in quarantine and lockdown all the time"

Which is ironic, because playing Yooka-Laylee felt like being in a hospital bed hooked to a ventilator

Thanks Chinese Communist Party!!!

@edhe

They post one article for each new UK coronavirus case

Nothing sadder than a dork upset over vidya-games

@retro_player_77

Oh, I definitely agree with you there. This looks awful, I'm sure the screen is trash, and it's probably not practical to use with most games.

@retro_player_77

Since there are no, and won't be, any FPGA N64's in the near future (or possibly ever), this is fine.

Woah! That was brutal!!!!

As others have mentioned, this article does a horrible job at explaining how to get this to work.

First, this works best on a flat island without too many cliffs. If you spawn one of those places, return to your main island, get a new ticket, and try again.

Do this around 730-8pm, at a time when there are no butterflys. Just ground insects.

Clear off the island as stated, then begin to just run laps. Go to the rocky cliffs on the coast to scare away wharf roaches, and run around the rest of the island chasing away everything else. Eventually a tarantula will appear, catch it, and then run more laps scaring away useless bugs until another appears.

I cleared two Islands, and to max out on tarantulas each time (just counting time to catch them) took about 35-40min. So count on spending around an hour total in clearing an island/catching all tarantulas.

Another thing. The poorly worded article makes it seem like there are several tarantulas crawling around the island. This is not true. I think in the nearly 2hrs I spent on two islands, maybe three times there were 2 tarantulas on screen at once. Usually one single tarantula appeared every minute or two, but that involved me constantly running loops on the map scaring away the other insects.

@stevenw45

This will come as a shock, but if you actually read the article you will find the answers to your questions!

Do we have to have neighbors on our island or can we self isolate?

Thanks, but I already have a dongii in my pocket

If all you own is a Switch for online gaming, I'd pray for death

"wife"

Yeah sure pal, whatever you say

@Heavyarms55

Yes it's still popular.

Also, if one band that nobody's ever heard of claims to have five songs in the game, the soundtrack will suck

A Japanese videogame game company won't be announcing a game about a hedgehog, all because some Chinese guy had to eat a bat.

What a world we live in.

@retro_player_22

"Like what Polymega is doing"

LOL

Hopefully this is a scam run by the Chinese Government and everyone who donates to this will be rounded up in the night.

It's always big news when someone who has worked for a company for "nearly six years" leaves abruptly.

It won't be easy, but hopefully Nintendo can recover from this shocking turn of events!!

ITT:

Grown men who own Nintendo plushies are criticizing Brie for her thoughts on "toxic masculinity". Don't worry, she isn't talking about you.

That said, she is an absolute bore on screen and seems devoid of any personality whatsoever.

@cdog555

Which was also their thought process behind not putting Nintendo games on mobile, but we have all seen how wrong they were about that too

I haven't gotten confirmation yet, but I've heard rumors China has also banned the games "Muslim Inc" and "Tibet Inc"

How come every "arty" photo some geek takes of videogame stuff has to have a craft beer and/or a cat in the frame?

I always wondered why new Switch came with "DEAR GOD HELP ME!!" carved into the back of it

@PlayedNSlayed

Of course

@graysoncharles
They are essentially taking pre-orders for the game and ensuring that they are selling enough copies to make a re-release viable.

Nothing wrong with that imo.

I will wait for their inevitable, cheaper revision.

Guys, this is not someone you want to date

Hopefully this is a true story, and not a sympathy scam like that one involving the Australian midget who is 30 years old

If Nintendo was smart, they could really capitalize on this situation in China.

"Ring Fit Adventure 2: Exotic Animal Eating Edition"

@Stocksy

The Turok price was high (I bought it on sale for like $8), but those games had a lot more work put into improving them than this Doom64 release will have.
