Can’t compete until the genres is over crowded and gamers move onto something else

Eh. Maybe. Or that the story was horse snot and the gameplay was terrible.

No thanks. Not ever. Garbage.

People really going to milk this book or whatever for news articles huh?

Any of them have an English translation?

I feel like I should get it, but I just don’t want it.

There’s dozens of video essays that discuss the problems with Xenoblade 2’s depiction of female characters. They’re interesting.

People can remain ignorant about how women are portrayed in media if they want.

Some of you all’s comments are ignorant to the point of being caricatures.

Hades. Game is pretty good.
Can’t imagine sinking all the time needed to see everything though. The 4 sets of levels are getting a little old

@BloodNinja

She doesn’t resemble the character to me. I don’t mind progressive casting, but this one is too left field. Nintendo wouldn’t do it anyway.

I’m not going to stress about getting a new model.

You’d think Atlus is seeing the demand and will offer a collection of sorts

Hopefully it’s Assault, but I’d rather have another Star Fox game like Assault except bigger.

I want to play all the DQ main entries. I already beat the first one.

This franchise is the definition of incoherent.

That’s be pretty dumb. And the movie theater would smell like bo

They’ve done too much to make the game accessible. I don’t know. I liked how In some of the games you could dodge red shells by just drifting.

That’s okay. There’s other stuff to play

God I hate Musou type games.

I liked the gimmick and teaming up different racers. Also thought the drifting mechanic was the best here. Took skill, but wasn’t broken like MKDS.

I don’t understand how Sega keeps these people engaged with the Sonic franchise.

I liked the movie that came out, but tbh I always thought the games were awful. Evey time I pick them up I have to force myself to finish them.

So I’ve stopped buying them some time ago.

@Beeeell play Sekiro first.

Still playing Pokémon. Taking my time filling out what I can of the dex before I beat it. I’ll admit it hasn’t been enjoyable all too much, mostly something mindless to do while watching YouTube.

@MostHandsieBoy I don’t think they’re horrible…just less exciting? I don’t know how to explain it. It’s like the climax isn’t fulfilling enough or something.

They’re an easy laid back watch. Something I’d associate with those basic kid shows that air on weekday mornings.

I think it’s because the stakes are a little more personal, and the characters are somewhat undercooked/unrelatabke making it hard to be invested in their story.

Onward really disappointed me for some reason. It felt like it could’ve been more fantastical. The dad pants thing was interesting as a concept, but I honestly stopped caring midway through the movie. I’ve seen the trope of reconnecting with a dead parent before and it’s so cheap. It’s cheap. It was cheap in Ghostbusters Afterlife, it was cheap in the Adam Project. All of us can sympathize with missing a dead relative, it’s just hard to relate to a character who’s character arc is resolved by reconciling directly with that relative.

I liked Soul though, still…def doesn’t reach the same height as the older movies.

Zootopia is the last (Disney) animated movie I really liked though, so it’s been a while.

I didn’t like the movie, and don’t know much about the red panda stuff outside of what the movie told us about it. It did seem similar to tanuki kind of, so I’m not suprised by the comparison.

I’ll use this as an excuse to complain how obnoxious the friends and the MC was. The voice acting gave me a headache by the end of the movie. So grating.

Animation was good though.

@Kiz3000 not into sport or competitive games.

Eh I’ll pick it up in the summer when they’ll be less to play.

@johnvboy you’d think 4 consoles deep it’d be a feature out of the gate.

I spend quite a bit of time in each zone before moving on so I haven’t completed the story. I couldn’t even tell you what it’s about other than I dropped from the sky, and maybe other people did at on point, and some Pokémon are frenzied and I have to help them.

It’s okay. I’m waiting for the wall when I’ll put it down for something else.

No but RPGs after this for me for a while.

Why don’t they have this feature at launch? Seriously. It was a late update on Wii, 3DS, and Wii U. It’s comical.

@UltraZelda64 emulate.

There weren’t many n64 games that I’d call must haves. And we seem to be getting a good amount now. I wonder if they’ll announce another system soon?

This is smut. If you like it fine I guess, but it's still smut.

I traded mine in for an OLED. The joycons were starting to go anyway.

@nocdaes I think the reason why it doesn’t is they don’t see it as franchise material or want to be bogged down with feeling they HAVE to make a sequel.

They’ll learn or they’ll go broke and shut down.

@Askalt I’m hoping for that too, but lot of RPGs on switch retain their high price at one point. Seems to be a window, and if you miss it you’re screwed.

Grass/Ghost maybe?

2022 is thicc

The N64 Zelda's haven't aged well. Long live the Cube duo.

I’ve liked all the FromSoftware games except DS2. Still going to wait on this for a while.

The difficulty isn’t even that bad in their games.

No. Make a better Switch.

@Richnj no. I see it as inconsequential. They’re just video games. They’re not a necessity of living.

@Richnj

Yes, they gained value a decade later, due in part of Nintendo dropping the entire strategy of reprints of evergreen titles at cheaper prices.

Whether you agree or not, the larger consumer market uses price to differentiate between quality. If Nintendo prices their games the same as shovel ware their perceived value could drop, affecting the overall brand.

Honestly. I don’t really see a negative. Even many of their third party exclusives are retaining value. It’s good for the company, their retail partners, and even third party partners.

Or maybe I should be able to purchase a Breath of the Wild at the same price of “LOL surprise movie night?”

Millions of people are still buying. Nintendo will adjust their strategy if they see it as a problem.

@Richnj

It’s pretty black and white. Nintendo making money is good for the company and the gamers that enjoy playing their games.

They seem to price their games right around what the market expects, which is the 60-70 price. I’m sure of it was 100, we’d see the creep as well.

Targeted sales of 33% off for limited time on digital games is not a permanent slash to $20 for physical. It allows Nintendo to still retain value to their brand by not offering bargain bin prices that we’ve seen for shovel ware, like Carnvial Games, in a giant bin at Wal-Mart. It’s about the ecosystem, and Nintendo has done a pretty good job curating it on Switch, clearly, without the heavy discounts.

Idk. I don’t really think anyone deserves cheap and access to a product when it’s not a necessity for life.

You’re too focused on Nintendolife’s choice of headline. Slashing prices to sell more copies at…a lower retail will shift more units, but not increase revenue.

Nintendo has noted that evergreen titles have made up most of their revenue sales the last few years, and they need new games in the market to support the loss of revenue as those titles reach a higher penetration point.

They’re strategy of stepping away from player choice or select titles is mostly likely to retain brand value during a successful period.

Other gaming companies wish they could sell their 4-year-old titles for full price.

What they’re doing makes perfect sense. If gamers want a discount then they should be smarter about where they buy the titles. Try used market places.

@Richnj if they can’t justify a 33% discount, or more if you buy used, then that’s on them for not being able to enjoy the game…not Nintendo.

There is a reason why Nintendo doesn’t do a player choice markdown anymore. It devalues the game. Copies would sit on shelves longer, then there would have to be package reprints for expensive cards. Their model might not be ideal for the thrifty gamer, but it’s making money.

@ModdedInkling I don’t think they’re worried about it, just stating a fact that they’re reaching a high penetration rate and if they want to continue to push software sales they’ll have to release new games.

Do people really want more content for these ole games to continue for years? Or new games?

@CupidStunt why if people are still buying them at $40-$60?

@Bunkerneath to add value to nso
