@liljmoore where there were a bunch of mediocre Banjo clones that were just as bad as the real Banjo?

Tak, Billy Hatcher come to mind

This guy has an expiration date on anything he does. He has no integrity at all. Class A diva, thinking he’s a rockstar.

It’s not that’s it’s tough, it’s just a drag. It’s a drag on the pacing and it sucks

@MadmanMike oh it’ll win. The sheer amount of bandwagoning PC fans will do, will make it happen. Not sure if that’s the right word

I’m playing Engage right now. I don’t get what’s so good about it.

The voice acting, story, and character design is so bad that it actually takes away from
The gameplay, which so far feels pretty standard Fire Emblem

Haha! Suck it, DreamCastGuy

@DonkeyBrainKing

So what is it? If the theft isn’t a big deal to their pockets, then you’re not “sticking it to them.”

The only one who gains anything out of the piracy is the pirate.

Piracy isn’t a form of activism. It’s just how selfish people validate thinking they’re above everyone else.

Pirates and leakers suck. And they always will.

It’s their attitude of believing they’re better than everyone else and should be allowed to “demo” the game while the majority purchases it.

Just excuses to try and validate their thievery lol at least own up to your faults and have an ounce of self-awareness. People would respect you more

Avi Arad is a airhead.

@Moistnado Brie Larson in white tights and a tunic? Yes please.

Avi Arad?

I wonder if he’s going to force Venom in the movie?

It won’t hit the DS any time soon

No. I’ve never bought a Wario Ware game. Mini game compilations are a waste of my time and money. These should just be phone games. It’d probably do really well as a mobile game. It’d be very on-brand to feature a greedy character to headline a micro-transaction mini game compilation.

Listen. If I didn’t know it was a new guy, I wouldn’t be analyzing the hell out of it trying to describe what’s different or wrong about it.

It’s fine. Mario is fine. Occasionally he sounds like Mickey Mouse, but it’s ok

I haven’t noticed

@JohnnyMind a reboot with a smaller roster would be such a bad move. The bad PR would be crazy.

I spent a lot of time with Ultimate and I didn’t even finish the single player word of light thing.

If I was still a kid and didn’t have adult stuff, this game would’ve consumed me for years.

7

Tropical Freeze is a better platfomer.

That’s the only reason why. I’d give TF a 9 and by that scale Wonder would have to be a 7

I’m okay with it. I like the princess peach design in the movie. Felt more lively and less doe-eyed.

What an obnoxious way to describe a game.

GTAV would make more sense

I kind of wish we got a Mario Vs DK remake from the GB with updated 2D sprites.

I remember being disappointed with this one. Lacked character

For me the Xbox brand is nothing. Its attachment to other brands makes them “uncool” and “messy” by association. Like I’m done with Bethesda and Activision all together.

If they bought Nintendo I’d probably only retro game. I don’t see any value Microsoft could bring Nintendo. It would be a one sided relationship and with Xbox siphoning off all the brand-image from Nintendo, diluting it, until Mario and Zelda become nothing more than forgotten mascots.

Nintendo’s culture is what makes them special. They maintain that because they are able to operate freely with very little foreign interference.

There is no value here for Nintendo, gamers, or even the Japanese community.

Phil Spencer is a joke. I’m tired of hearing about gamepass as some sort of messiah when it’s really just twisting gaming and devaluing all the energy gone into making games.

I thought in my older age I was kind of done being a fanboy, but just knowing that this slime ball even thought about how to plan an acquisition of Nintendo has me literally seething.

I will never purchase an Xbox associated product again. At this point the brand is a zombie, animated my Microsoft’s money.

I’m fine with it. We used to get ports like this all the time. Price is a bit annoying

Physical I will

I think a 3D Mario followed by Prime 4 a few months later would be a strong launch

And announce another live service game that was 5 years too late

I tried getting into the remake as a kid. It was my first, literal first time playing an FF game. It’s turned me off to the entire series.

Elden Ring.
Not enjoying it as much as Dark Souls 3

@N8tiveT3ch you’re right. They’re actually putting out games consistently the last decade.

3 city tracks?

I don’t know if this is unpopular but I could really do without the real city tracks.

I can’t race on them, there’s too much stuff happening.

Call it as it is. Game had awful controls which squandered its potential.

Should have just made it a Wii game.

@sleepinglion eh for me it’s the vocal entitlement some pirates display. Worse is when they think of themselves as some type of do-gooder, taking a morale stance against evil Nintendo.

It’s like at least be honest with yourself

Why does Kotaku support this stuff?

I’m just happy that there seems to be some movement that isn’t just Pixar/Disney getting recognition.

@Axecon digital though so meh

Not at all.

I haven’t really been on team Ubisoft in over a decade. Most of their games have this uncanny vibe to them I can’t get past. They’re just uncool and cringey.

This trailer is basically that.

Uncanny because it looks like dread kind of, uncool because the character design, cringe because the trailer.

If the whole company folded I wouldn’t bat an eye.

Ugh. Not illumination for this one. It doesn’t gel
right

I’m in no rush. It took me more than a year to finish botw.

I’d put it down, and go back to it.

I thinks it’s good.

Haven’t made it off the sky island yet.

Fun messing around with stuff.

Feels very BotW obviously. If it’s just another 100 more hours of that I don’t think I’ll enjoy it much.

With new 3D Zelda titles…there’s always this anticipation of experiencing it. The story. The dungeon. The boss battles. The quirky characters. The equipment.

Don’t feel like that so far

@Simon97 lol fairness?

The video pretty much visually copies how recall looks

@FlashmanHarry Star Wars is a movie franchise 🤡

@Wolfgabe I’ll be completely honest. Pixar hasn’t been good for years. Their movies are too safe, too atypical of the studio.

I never cared what critics were going to say about this movie.

Always going to see it.

He’s obviously aware that people kind of hate how recognizable his voice is.

Honestly wouldn’t have minded someone a little more heroic sounding if that makes sense.

He’s joking clearly

Diddy, Petey, King Boo, ROB, Funky,

@CharlieGirl you get it. All these people complaining are plain unlikable and need a hug. How miserable are they?

This is a cartoon. Cartoons are filled with caricatures. Yeah. Damsel. Strong monarch. Whatever.

It takes you 4 paragraphs to get to the actual story.

Movie. I think they’re all great
