Hating region locking since DSi

Re: Toby: The Secret Mine is Digging Its Way to Wii U in Early 2017

Graphically that looks like a kind of rip off of Limbo, Feist and Badland.

But Typoman was really great, so lets see how this will shape up!

Limbo was rated to come to Wii U a year ago, I wonder where in the world is that game and why Double Eleven has not released it. They were reportedly the responsible entity for the console ports.

Re: Retro: Check Out These Early Prototype Pictures of the Nintendo DS

Haha, that's like super fat DS. Especially horrible is the Gameboy Advance SP headphone adapter still there and not just a 3,5mm hole.

I had a Graphite Black original DS that was amazing, shame I had to sell it to afford a black DS Lite on it's launch. DS was such an amazing device, the last region free Nintendo gaming device, before they shot themselves in the foot and region locked everything after DSi came out. Graphite Black was not even sold in Europe, it was bought from Asia from the amazing Lik Sang, that had to close down because Sony sued them at some point. That shop was the best. So much better than the likes of Play-Asia can ever even dream of.

Re: New Code Found in Unreal Engine 4 Further Reinforces Claims of Handheld / Docked Power Gap with Nintendo Switch

Kolzig

Specs are no problem for a device like this. The problem is that how lazy devs will be. They need to make games and also port some games well and really use their brains instead of trying easy cash ins.

The good thing about Switch seems to be that it's really versatile and flexible in that it has proper Unity and Unreal Engine 4 support. Would be interesting to see also id tech bend to Switch.

Re: Amazon Instant Video Goes Live on Wii U

Kolzig

I wonder now that Amazon Prime Video is available in +200 countries, would they care enough to unlock the app to be downloaded in countries like Finland now? I have the weak Amazon Prime Video now in testing, but the amount of content is incredibly bad.

Re: Lego City Undercover Is Coming To Nintendo Switch And Other Platforms Next Year

Kolzig

Really surprising considering Nintendo was the publisher and funder of the original game.

But it's great, the best Lego game gets another chance at life and all gamers get to experience it. I'm really excited that it's coming out on PC and Switch.

I hope they fix everything that was nagged about in the original game. They will have to remove all the gamepad related activities however which is sad. But something gotta go in order for the ports to work.

But honestly, I was hoping for Lego City Undercover 2 hitting Switch more than just porting the old game. This series definitely has earned that it should get a third game as a sequel.

Re: Miitomo is Due to Get a Major Update in the Near Future

Kolzig

I have had it sideloaded since April on my Android, barely have used it in ages. Pretty much just got the special outfits they were offering every now and then. The most annoying part is the stupidity that it can't be connected to the My Nintendo account since they haven't released it globally so it gives error since countries don't match.

So it takes over 1gb of space in my phone, but I can't delete since I will lose everything if uninstalled. The thing is, I would like to uninstall it to save precious space.

Re: Miitomo is Due to Get a Major Update in the Near Future

Kolzig

I wonder who gives a crap as long as Miitomo is so limited released in just a few countries instead of globally. Same also for DeNA's Super Mario Run since it's only going to be an iOS game instead of a proper mobile game for all phones. Sometimes I feel Nintendo just likes to shoot themselves to the foot on purpose.

Re: LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Has Neat DLC, Yet It's Not Listed for Wii U

Kolzig

Well that's just behaviour from Warner Bros once again. Just got Lego StaWa Ep7 yesterday and finally thought maybe I can play the c3po red arm mission etc, but once again WB has crapped their pants.

WB needs to be run down with a bulldozer.

And anyway this kind of business decisions are the lowest of loweest crap. Deciding to cut content from the game as DLC before the game is even ready.

Re: Nintendo Download: 13th October (Europe)

Kolzig

Chase: Cold Case Investigations - Distant Memories for sure. I'm pretty sure that will be an amazing game like all the old games from the top devs.

Never Alone has a really crazy awesome discount, every Wii U gamer who loves beautiful sidescrolling platformers should buy that. It's an excellent game, though I am quite disappointed that the developer didn't bring the Foxtales DLC to Wii U. But anyways, you also get 20 gold coins in My Nintendo for just 3 euros. So awesome game and 20 gold coins for little value. Go for it!

Re: Monster Hunter Generations Gets a Tempting Discount in North America

Kolzig

This would be a nice discount for Europe as well if it ever happened.

The thing that sucks with MonHun games is that the online play is not global. It killed the whole game for me in the beginning already that MonHun4 was not playable together by Japanese players and European/American players so I couldn't play the game together with my wife.

Re: Poll: Six Months On - How Do You Feel About My Nintendo?

Kolzig

They need to offer more rewards, especially VC games etc for gold points. It's really pathetic at the moment with only Pilotwings as the reward.

Also why in the world is Miitomo still only released in a few countries? Remove it completely from My Nintendo if it is not going to be released worldwide.

Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt Double Pack Confirmed For Euro Release

Kolzig

@Greenalink Well that sucks if only the physical version would have the update in it. That is actually really bs, like in the line of Intl Creates work with Mighty No 9.

Also shame as I already have both games as digital versions and will never by those for a second time as physical. Unless they give one copy for free which they will not do. How hard is it to just release a free update in the 3DS eShop damn it? Clearly if they are doing it for the physical version, the digital version is just laziness then.

Re: Video: Image & Form Talks SteamWorld Heist on Wii U and States Its Next Project Will Be in the Series

Kolzig

I dislike Bergsala because they have next to no real presence in the Nordics. If they really want to help Nordics Nintendo presence, then become Nintendo North Europe or give Finland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland and Denmark their own Nintendo Headquarters.

We are still missing things like Miitomo and in general Nintendo is not visible in pretty much any shops. Hopefully NX will be big and change that.

Re: 3DS Update 11.1.0-34 Brings Even More Stability To Nintendo's Incredibly Stable Handheld

Kolzig

I wonder what exploits did they block this time instead doing any useful real updates like adding all world maps to Streetpass Plaza and enabling the globe icon for all countries so you could view what streetpasses have you received and from which countries. Most of the world still after five years can't do that. Only select few countries can. It's quite a lot like the Miitomo case.

Re: Nintendo Appears at Apple Conference to Announce Super Mario Run

Kolzig

It is in a way funny, as Apple is yesterday's news in today's mobile market, Nintendo brings out a yesterday's game with Mario skin on it as timed exclusive on ios devices.

I never expected the Mario mobile game to be anything special and that's exactly how it was then in the end. Shame that they didn't go for a full proper release for all potential players and instead want to tackle 20% of the market.

Re: Talking Point: The Inevitability of Super Mario Run, Nintendo's Ace for the Mobile Market

Kolzig

Well, Apple most likely paid Nintendo so well that Nintendo just were blinded by the money and not give the games global unified release.

The Mario spinoff Rayman copycat game looks quite boring also. I expected it to be nothing special since the whole point is to bring more people to Nintendo's platforms from mobile and not nice versa. The game looks like a reskinned Rayman mobile game with NSMBWii graphics.

Shame that also Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing games will follow the same route of being bought to appear first on one platform only.

Still for people's sake, I hope the exclusivity period is only something like one month.

But Nintendo hasn't even now released Miitomo globally, so I'm not holding my hope that they would handle this mobile games initiative any better.

Re: Nintendo Download: 15th September (Europe)

Kolzig

Dragon Quest VII is the cool release of the week. Finally it is here, hopefully soon next year also VIII will come.

Futuridium crossbuy is excellent deal. All cross platform games should do that, there is no reason not to do it. Except in the case of Nicalis games which have been released on both platforms. Tyrone never wants people to have fun with crossbuy.
