Re: Technical Infrastructure For Nintendo To Stream Games Outside Of Japan "Doesn't Exist"

LightyKD

Ok what Reggie said is laughable and disappointing. I'm currently testing Assassin's Creed Odyssey for Google's Project Stream and I can say that streaming to a tablet is just as reliable as streaming to a desktop. BTW, even though I'm streaming to a Windows tablet, my Switch is arguably more powerful than my Windows tab with twice the RAM, a proper 64 bit OS and a befier
GPU (at last glance). Nintendo simply does not want to invest in game streaming in the States or is holding the streaming card close to their chest in hopes of some silly surprise announcement.

Re: Video: Smash Ultimate's Coming, What GameCube Controller Should You Get?

LightyKD

Sucks that Alex didn't have a Hori controller in time for his video. Personally, I can't wait for these GameCube style pads to release. I have the following on pre order

Peach / Hori
Pikachu / PDP
Link / PDP

All of my Nintendo gear is Peach related but I love how the character designs for the PDP pads are molded onto the controller and not just cheaply painted on. Overall, I would take the GameCube button layout any day of the week. It's why I currently use the Hyperkin ProCube for PC gaming.

Re: Ubisoft Shutting Down Online Services For Older Just Dance Games On Wii And Wii U Next Month

Time to clear some things up. Wii games using servers from Nintendo WiFi Connection (unless taken down by the company) should still be up and running. That means CoD, Conduit 2 and Just Dance 19. Additionally, all video apps work on Wii. Lastly, you can easily get online back on all WFC Wii games by soft modding your Wii (easy to do) and using Wiimfi. There is a large community on Wiimfi. Smash Bros Brawl and Mario Kart Wii multiplayer is just as lively as it was years ago.

Re: Hardware Review: NS Glasses 3D VR Headset for Switch

LightyKD

I was hoping for a good 3D effect. Now I think I'm going to settle for one of those "wireless" headsets with HDMI input. Easiest way to create low grade VR would be: Switch (obviously) + HDMI-in headset + three joycons (a L+R pair for character control and the third goes on top of the headset for head tracking). After that, we simply need to get developers to add in a "third-joycon" mode to games that make sense to have it.

Re: Switch-Exclusive Senran Kagura Reflexions Will "Deliver Exciting Sensations" This September

@Royalblues dude, I'm married. I totally get thay real relationships are way different than the stuff you see in entertainment. That said, as sad as it is that, a majority of the people in japan have given up on meaningful human interaction, it's still not our place to force our social norms on them. For the sake of that country I do hope that they find a point of balance. I dont mind declining birth rates. The entire planet needs to slow down on baby making but we cant just give up on meaningful relationships. Do games like Senran Kagura add to Japan's problem? Maybe but, games like this alone are not the culprit.

@Royalblues let's not twist words. Read carefully. You are not supporting the physical genocide of the Japanese people. You ARE, by trying to force conformation, the genocide of Japanese culture. Japan is its own country with every right as a sovereign nation to have their own culture. You have no right to try to force the Japanese people to live under your own social norms. If you don't like the forms of entertainment presented by certain Japanese publishers then you can simply choose to IGNORE the things that offend you and not spend your hard earned money. Nobody is forcing you to pay for ecchi games. Those of us who like these games will buy and the rest need to learn how to ignore and move the heck on! It's that simple. There are more important things in the world to get your panties in a bunch over!

@Royalblues how is forcing another country to do what you want them to do progress? You're supporting the genocide of another culture because that culture makes you feel uncomfortable. Also, take note that just because you see less sexual themes in LOCALIZED Japanese games it does not mean that those themes are not present in the original Japanese version. I hope we get a LOT more games like this on Switch!

Re: Near-Identical Fake Switch Pro Controllers Are Now On The Market

LightyKD

I love Chinese knockoffs so thank you Nintendo Life for sharing the eBay link! People complaining about off brand and knock off controllers are annoying. As a customer it's your job to research what you buy before you buy it. Additionally if someone decided to buy one of these knockoffs whilst fully knowing what they are getting into then what harm is it doing to anyone else?
