Not interested. I want a more bombastic Star Fox. Assault dialed to 100x with a character creator and massive online battles, and better third person shooting mechanics.
Star Fox could be a giant sci-fi epic franchise for Nintendo but they continue to treat it like butt
I’m so tired of the gaming media acting like a contrarian to its audience. If someone doesn’t value it at $60, then they don’t value it at $60. There really isn’t an argument for it.
Personally I’m on the fence. I like Metroid, but there’s been so many games like it, mostly indie, over the last 20 years that it’s hard to value it at $60. Especially since those other games are for like a third of the price.
I’m about 3/10 excited. I’m really not expecting much besides Zelda, Splatoon 3, Pokémon, Metroid Prime 4, Rabbids, Bayonetta 3, Smash Fighter, SMT, and whatever EAD is doing.
Someone tell me why is it that Nintendo tells us that they won’t make new games for old IPs because they don’t know what to do with them, but then they go ahead and cycle out Mario sport games with dumb gimmmicks?
Oh thank you for this gem, Nintendo! There’s been practically nothing to play on your system for over a year. Real happy for a Mario Golf game. Should keep me busy for months and months.
Nintendo is too tepid. I know we’re in a pandemic, but they should have planned a lot more content for AC. Built it like a service game to ride that wave. Instead they rounded on a year and it looks more of the same.

Re: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Has New Pokémon, Including A Horrible Fish Ghost Bent On Revenge
Thought it looked underwhelming
Re: UK Charts: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Speeds Into Second As Nintendo Takes Half Of Top Ten
@Bibi it should be a Nintendo Kart game. I want Samus in her gunship and Falcon too.
Re: Stand-Up Comedian Reveals His Role In The Upcoming Super Mario Bros. Movie
Weird.
That’s all.
Re: Nintendo Reveals The Top 15 Most-Downloaded Switch Games In July 2021 (Europe)
@SpaceboyScreams I can’t stand it in handheld mode. Not sure how they could have improved it.
Re: Nintendo's Stock Price Sees Biggest Fall In Two Years Following Earnings Report
Means nothing other than a correction of last years lucky performance with the lock down.
Re: Feature: Zooming Through Sonic Colors: Ultimate And Getting The Switch Lowdown
Only British people care about the whole “color” things. Most Americans couldn’t care less.
Re: Soapbox: In Praise Of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Two Years On
Too bad the class system stinks and the maps are boring.
Re: The Simpsons Co-Showrunner Would Love To See Hit & Run Return But Admits It's "Complicated"
So Disney. I’ll just emulate
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (July 24th)
Tbh I bought SS tried it in handheld mode, the controls were so bad it put me off playing it all together.
So. Pokémon Yellow through emulation it is
Re: Fancy A Switch OLED For £800? Scalpers Are Already Flogging Pre-Orders
Yeah. Figured this would happen. Makes it even less appealing. If that was possible.
Re: Nintendo Confirms There's No CPU Or RAM Upgrade In The OLED Switch
Meh pass for me
Re: Here's How Nintendo Is Improving Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Over The Wii Original
@tntswitchfan68 their whining isn’t stopping anyone from enjoying it 🙄
They can complain about the price all they want.

Re: Mini Review: DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods - Part One - Rip, Tear, Repeat
I turned down the difficulty on the final fight on pc. Didn’t have it in me

Re: Feature: "Samus' Adventure Will Continue" - Metroid Dread Producer On The Series' 2D Revival And Future
I wasn’t impressed with what I saw. Idk. After 19 years I expected more.
That’s okay. I hope I’m wrong.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Delivered An Excellent E3 Direct For Fans Old And New
Excellent? No. It was just okay.
Mario Rabbids looks good but that was 2022 right?
SMT’s looked pretty boring gauging off the trailer. It’s a niche series.
Advance Wars remake should be fun but not for 60.
Wario Ware is meh.
Mario Party should be DLC. Most likely it was and they decided to release it as a game.
Zelda is 2022.
And It’s been 19 years since a Metroid 2D game…what they showed looked stagnant.
Re: Metroid 5 Is Coming To Switch As Metroid Dread, And It's 2D
Looked good, but the treehouse presentation was boring. Fell asleep during it
Re: The Japanese Shin Megami Tensei V Trailer Is Different To The Western One
The voice over trailers from direct announcements are really lame
Re: Poll: How Hyped Are You For Nintendo's E3 Direct?
I’m about 3/10 excited. I’m really not expecting much besides Zelda, Splatoon 3, Pokémon, Metroid Prime 4, Rabbids, Bayonetta 3, Smash Fighter, SMT, and whatever EAD is doing.
Basically no surprises.
Re: Random: Craving More Metroid? Check Out This Impressive Live Action Short Film
@sleepinglion cry cry cry
Re: Random: Craving More Metroid? Check Out This Impressive Live Action Short Film
Cool for a fan film.
Re: The Celebrity Cameos For E3 Season Are Coming, Starting With Jeff Goldblum
If someone watches E3 for the celebrities they’re doing it wrong.
E3 could just be a 2 hour montage of trailers and it’d be fine
Re: Talking Point: With Sony And Microsoft In Next-Gen Limbo, E3 Is Nintendo's For The Taking
@KryptoniteKrunch can’t wait to get a ten minute trailer of Mario Gold <_>
Re: Soapbox: Pokémon Legends: Arceus' Release Date Worries Me, But Hopefully I'm Wrong
Looks like a tech demo. Pass
Re: Super Smash Bros. Director Masahiro Sakurai Says He 'Likes The Idea Of Early Retirement'
Eh. Why should we care? I hope he enjoys retirement!
Re: Review: Miitopia - A Daft DIY Adventure With Boundless Appeal, If You Make The Effort
Nah. Maybe if I was 10. Looks lame
Re: Nintendo Shares Juicy Mario Golf: Super Rush Details In Lengthy Overview Trailer
Someone tell me why is it that Nintendo tells us that they won’t make new games for old IPs because they don’t know what to do with them, but then they go ahead and cycle out Mario sport games with dumb gimmmicks?
Oh thank you for this gem, Nintendo! There’s been practically nothing to play on your system for over a year. Real happy for a Mario Golf game. Should keep me busy for months and months.
Blah
Re: Soapbox: Be Happy, This Is The True Golden Age Of Gaming
There’s nothing more condensending than being told to appreciate what you have when you’re unhappy with what you have.
Re: Editor On Netflix's Castlevania Discusses The Potential For A Legend Of Zelda Anime
Considering Nintendo is going all in with Universal I would think they’d get first dibs on adapting.
Re: Disney And Dotemu Releasing LucasArts Classic Games On Switch eShop Next Month
@Avol coop is harder than single player
Re: Nintendo's Ready For Acquisitions, When The Time Is Right
Eh. All I want is new games, or to see Nintendo’s exsisting IPs get a big bombastic treatment like some western franchises.
Re: Nintendo's Upcoming Release Schedule For 2021 Looks Positive, With Room For More
@westman98 Pokémon snap and miitopia are shovelware. Niche JRPGs, ports and Japan only games. Quite a list.
There’s nothing killer there. Vernier of ignorance I guess.
Re: Nintendo's Upcoming Release Schedule For 2021 Looks Positive, With Room For More
I think it looks pretty abysmal. I want to eat my words…because I want to have fun, but basically a sports game (no interest) a remake, and a port.
Oh an NH3 will be awful because Grasshopper don’t make good games.
@westman98 There’s nothing solid about that line up. Nintendo published or not you fluffed it out with shovel ware. 🙄
Re: Xbox Thought Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2, Bayonetta 3, And Metroid Prime 4 Would Come Out In 2020

Re: Talking Point: Is It Worth Buying A Nintendo Wii U In 2021?
No. It is not. Ever
Re: Fire Emblem-Style Strategy RPG 'Lost Eidolons' Could Be Coming To Nintendo Switch
I’ve wanted something like this for a while. Fire Emblem’s direction with waifu and husbandos and schools things doesn’t appeal to me.
The art design though is plain. Its technically impressive, but I’d kill for game like this with a world/art design of a fromsoftware game.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Becomes The "Best-Selling" Racing Game In US History
@Patendo probably because they’ve been working on a successor for some years now
Re: Takaya Imamura Describes Star Fox 64 As "The Game Of My Life"
Star Fox Zero was more of the same. Felt like a tech demo for something else.
I liked the direction Assault was taking
Re: Soapbox: Hurry Up And Release The Switch Pro Already, My Switch Is Dying
I mostly play dock. I got a launch switch and noticed that the left joy con is starting to bubble

Re: Nintendo's President Discusses Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Impact On Future Game Development
Nintendo is too tepid. I know we’re in a pandemic, but they should have planned a lot more content for AC. Built it like a service game to ride that wave. Instead they rounded on a year and it looks more of the same.
Re: Surprise, Surprise! Super Mario 3D All-Stars Prices Skyrocket As Scalpers Set Up Shop
It’ll come down once people realize no one is going to buy it for that
Re: Talking Point: Which Old Game Series Would You Like To See Revived?
I’d like to see a western studio get free reign over a start fox game
Re: Feature: Can't Buy Super Mario 64 On Switch Anymore? Psst! The N64 Original Is Better
Mario 64 is not that great.
