You don’t announce new hardware when your current hardware and games are selling very well and still grown with new customers. This is not the first Wii where it’s popularity fell off rather fast in is last years. There is no need for Nintendo to panic and reveal hardware now. That would kill the current system.

I like the convenience of digital but I also do not trust Nintendo, at all. Nintendo’s next console could lack a cartridge slot but still be backwards compatible with digital games only. The biggest issue is that we have no idea what Nintendo will do. My collection is 1/3 digital, 2/3 physical.

The way Steam operates is the de facto, the best. Nintendo will be unable to follow their lead if Nintendo’s future consoles are unique from each other in form and function. Given that, perhaps this argument is pointless. If Nintendo were to make each new generation of hardware unique, as they have historically, then digital vs physical doesn’t matter too much as your games are likely locked to Switch and maybe one generation of successor hardware. If Nintendo where to standardize their hardware and never stray too far from 16:9 aspect ratio, standard d-pad, abxy, r1, r2, L1, L2, motion, ARM processor, then perhaps they could allow customers to carry forward games for decades as Steam does.

And like I said, that cartridge slot may not stick around for too much longer. IDK, there are retailers to consider and the chip crisis to consider as well.

He’s 52 after all?? You know, you don’t have to retire. And 52 is not even close to old.

Alone with that squid walking, I feel like a voyeur, looking in at a private moment, a romance.

I can say the same thing, but my words are scattered on the wind. Being a celebrity, quoted from Twitter, doesn’t make his desire any more certain or interesting.

The Steam Deck still has a long way to go, and PC gaming further to go, before they rival the simplistically of inserting a Switch cartridge and playing. The whole tweak your PC game until you get a good balance of graphics and frame rate is what eventually pushed me towards consoles. When on PC I was wasting a good 4-8 hours with each new game, testing settings, trying to get a good balance. It was not fun, but a chore. The Steam Deck largely appears to be the same, aside from the tweaks Valve makes for the popular games available on the Deck. But even then, most users are then tweaking to get as much battery or to reduce thermals. Again, a chore.

The lines that Peach said are the same lines said in 100 other films. You hear them said so many times you can predict the end of their sentence. Boring.

The only truth I know to be sure, this Hideki Kamiya, he is a xenophobic disgrace, calling English speakers insects. His twitter banner says it repeatedly. He is a mentally sick individual. Calling people insects is enough to put me off from buying any of his games, ever!

Nintendo should sever ties with him 100%. Knowing that this man has been tweeting xenophobic slurs for a very long time, I am extremely surprised that Nintendo has not severed ties and ceased financing him long ago.

This isn’t outrage. Nobody should tolerate xenophobic slurs or actions. Don’t matter who, what, or when. It is not acceptable. Not even as being “part of his character”. No he is a natural born pr**k who thinks he can get away with his awful attitude by pretending that it is part of a cool-guy/tough-guy persona. Nope, he is mentally ill and wanna-be cool kids prop him up as an idol.

Like was leaked months ago, this movie may be a musical.

My opinion on Tenta Missiles, Beam Ray, Shark Slider and so on, stop complaining and work out how to avoid them. That is part of the fun challenge of any game. Learn the tells, the pattern, the noise, and then overcome the threat. As for the Beam Ray, simply jump over or duck under, easy. The Shark slider has a huge tell. The Tenta Missiles have a huge visual and audio tell and are easy to swim away from.

I still think this is a joke, all dunky does are jokes. I think this is a commentary on how flooded the Indy market is with crap. Also the lack of Nintendo or equivalent seal of approval.

I will call it Zelda Tears, not Zelda TOTK, that looks dumb. And Tears is like that thing Zelda does when she cries.

Maybe I’ve been playing too much Splatoon but it seems to me there is a Dev at Nintendo who is actively messing up phone numbers while another Dev is trying to regain stability. Who will win this turf war!?

All the modes.

Last night I was playing Turf War and between battles about all 8 of us were having a squid party, jumping up and down together in squid form.

I’d rather it be here in the lobby than on the battlefield like was seen in Splatoon 2.

The most I’ve ever waited was 120 seconds. Usually if it goes that long a communication error comes shortly.

BOTW2, Odyssey 2, and a new 2D ZELDA.

Maybe Nintendo should finance more games with Ubisoft or invest in their stock or buy this team.

@RiasGremory I would definitely enjoy a Mario and Rabbids movie!

Mario the Musical. Because it’s script leaked months ago to be a musical.

I would rather have a NEW 2D Zelda developed by Capcom.

This is my first Splatoon and I am surprised that you can’t play Turf-War or practice at all in this demo. The NPC’s tell me I need to. I spent a good hour messing around trying to join a match. Things like getting dressed, picking my load-out, drawing a picture, voting, and even after that I still can’t practice. Really weird. Seems others cannot either as they are drawing pictures complaining out the lack of gameplay right now. Noobs like me will spend Saturday’s match just fumbling about trying to get the hang of things. I was hoping that Thursday and Friday would allow new players to get practice in.

You can thank Linus Tech Tips for the surge in Switch emulation. They did an entire video on YouTube about a month ago. The comments under that video display so much vile hatred for Nintendo, yet his community feels entitled to steal from the one they hate.

Why would I spend $30 above the $60 when I barely understand what the extra content is. Getting a few guns early is not worth it. As ScottTheWoz says, pay more so that you can hurry up and play less of the game.

The time span between games has gotten out of hand. Let’s get back to 900 days. Also, who is Zelda? It’s been so long I’ve forgot. Who was I supposed to save?

@RudeAnimat0r Wow, I did not see that third face in there at all. NA version is the best, just The vampire hunter, his whip, the moon, and dracula’s castle; that’s all we need.

I’m excited. I like cheerful, brightly colored games, especially srpg’s that can be played in short burst. I can’t stand to play overt long, try-hard, dark (in color and content), disgusting, or very serious games much anymore.

While Nintendo Life and Twitter would like to focus on the word “Laziness”, it would be better if the NL author didn’t jump on the Twitter hurt pile and simply said it as it is, the game industry, like most employment situations, treat their employees like slaves. The fat cat Master is who makes the decision to release games half cooked. Those twitter users linked in this article whom are defending their employer’s decision to work them in crunch time are like slaves who thank their Master for mistreatment. It would be best if there were serious talks about work reform.

I think it’s healthier to expect less. Not getting my hopes too high. My guess is the handheld resolution will be 576p like we saw in FFXII or 540p as we saw in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. A bit blurry but still playable.

Nintendo Switch Widecare obviously

The first Rabbids game was lengthy enough, quite lengthy. The increased file size doesn’t necessarily mean the second game is larger. It could indicate that less compression has been used. Because the visuals seem to be better, this could possibly be achieved by constantly streaming in uncompressed asset’s in real-time. This technique has been used since at least the PS2 to get around the constraints of low system memory.

It’s not going to happen because Metroid is an obscure franchise that has not seen much success, even with Dread in the last 20 years.

This is revisionist history. I was 17 years old when this game came out. I remember all the interviews I read at the time stating the cell shading was Miyamoto’s style and decision. That he was very disappointed at the initial reception. That he was very proud of the fluid cartoon like animation and the very expressive facial animation. He was very happy with Wind Waker.

I expect Nintendo to announce the closure of Retro Studios, without any mention of Metroid, Starfox, or F-Zero; allowing those franchises to remain forgotten. I’m serious. Retro hasn’t done anything in over 7 years. They are not the same studio from the year 2002. StarFox’s on-rails gameplay is not in-fashion and needs major reinventing. F-Zero while beloved has been replaced by MarioKart.

Not a single one nor the legendaries look good. Sorry if my opinion hurts you. These are all low effort by artistic and Pokémon gen 1 standards.

So this is not available anywhere else? Then why report on it. Limited run and the like are a scam in my eyes.

If only adults with kids would stop buying low effort Pokémon for their children.

I don’t understand why Retro puts out so few games.

Only 13 million WiiU’s sold. Those saying they don’t want either game for Switch because they got them on WiiU, you are like a few grains of sand in an ocean of gamers who do own Switch but have not played either of these Zelda’s, not once, or not in 20 and 16 years.

The iPhone has mostly retained the same look for 15 years. Apple customers understand that the new iPhone is better. Nintendo needs to market very cleverly in a similar way. It honestly I don’t think Nintendo can help themselves, they’ll probably have zero backwards compatibly and the new system will look way different. If that is so, the Switch may be my last system from them. I already skipped the Wii/WiiU days, but kept up with handhelds because the DS line was similar enough and had backwards compatibility. Just do not game enough anymore to subscribe to gimmicks for the sake of being different. People understand the iPhone and they understand that a PC can look the same but have newer faster hardware inside.
