Reading that It's just as good as Paper Mario and Xenoblade, but not as good as ACNH is massively unhelpful to me because ACNH is garbage to me, Paper Mario is better but still sub-par, and Xenoblade despite being a Wii game is still better imo than ACNH and Paper Mario, and honestly shouldn't even be considered among Switch games (but when Nintendo refuse to make new games what else can you do).
So Calamity is equally as good as a game I kinda like and a remake I'm in love with, but not quite as good as a game I deeply hate. It's times like these that make me genuinely love the concept of opinions.
@JR150 Definitely not They already did that crap in Gen 4 and 5, especially Gen 5 that required you to own a second DS and Gen 4 games just to complete the National Dex in Gen 5 (people complaining about paywalls now clearly know nothing about Pokemon up until Gen 5)
@MS7000 I don't understand It's going through what a lot of games go through Hiring people and being scrapped etc are two things that happen. It's not like this is the first game ever that's outsourcing people, or the first game where development hasn't gone as smoothly as planned
@Lionyone Based on the sheer amount of top tier music and professional music tech, worth the money is what it is
The short answer is, you're a DJ that mixes songs playing a DJ set, but you choose 4 songs to fuse together so you could have the drum beat to the numa numa song, the synth riff in Take On Me, but Never Gonna Give You Up vocals over it. Watch gameplay of it, It's genius
YES YES YES My first Steamworld game was Dig 2, then I bought the first one and finished it in less than a day, and I'm obsessed with the whole franchise
This franchise is so frustrating to me because the show is great, the toys are great, but no one behind the franchise has any understanding of videogames or card games. You know Spinmaster haven't even made it possible for local game shops to sell Bakugan? Meaning that there's no actual community for it in the same way that the Pokemon TCG or Yu-Gi-Oh! have a community. Bakugan deserves better honestly.
Nintendo should adapt the Smash concept into a Fortnite-style game Different islands to choose from like post-apocalyptic Hyrule, Mushroom Kingdom and the Kanto region And maybe rather than using actual characters, have one customisable (and gender neutral, which is more unlikely than this game actually existing because Nintendo haven't moved into this century yet) avatar and have costumes based on Nintendo characters for infinite customisation
@JokerCK At this point that's the only possible reason The game's been out for a year and a half I'm not sure how or why the Switch version's taken this long in the first place
Ok so why do Nintendo think that fans want limited availability. Why do they also think that this is better than having it available permanently. And finally, why are they unable to localise Mother 3.
@PBandSmelly As much as I hate toxic fanbases, the Mother 3 fanbase are 100% justified, not just because Nintendo can't be bothered localising it, but also the fact that they've made fun of the community multiple times over the years, also they've never explained why they're not localising it. Nintendo deserve the Mother 3 fanbase honestly.
@mariomaster96 I like the "probably" there, implying that you haven't actually looked into it and you just wanted an opportunity to complain like a complete sad act. Along with the other brainless sheep that liked your dumb remark.
As it happens, it doesn't look like the finished product, because it isn't.
And yes I'm fully aware the wild area and animations look like garbage but holy hell dude, the game's like a year old, get a life, get over it, and shut up.
@TG16_IS_BAE bro its a Metroidvania game. Deal with it and for everyones sake just shut the hell up lmao. You're old enough to go on the internet but you're wetting your nappy and crying over a game being categorized. Just shut up.
I would check this out if it wasn't for the fact that I'm bored of pixel games now, like I genuinely don't see why indie devs are incapable of doing something original, idk man
@TG16_IS_BAE "stop using [Metroidvania] to describe adventure games with exploration" I agree, we should also stop using "rhythm action" to describe music based games where you act on a rhythm. I also wish games with lots of fighting would stop being called "fighting games". Don't you just hate when people call things the thing that they're called.
@Yanina Honestly I don't know what else people who only bought Zelda are expected to do here. I mean hell, Skylanders is the only game here I didn't buy (I also didn't know it existed until just now) and I nearly voted for it for a laugh. I admire you friend.
@Rhaoulos It's as close to F-Zero as we're gonna get before Nintendo get off their arses and bother to make a new one. I mean we'll be waiting a while because a new F-Zero would require A) Nintendo to make a new game, B) Nintendo to remember the F-Zero franchise and C) Nintendo to realise that fans want a new F-Zero title AND care enough about the fans to actually go through with it
@Euler Sonic was great, Detective Pikachu was great, also Miyamoto is working on this movie with the studio that made Despicable Me and Minions so. Also I'm glad you didn't respond to the second half of my comment, I was worried
@Euler Ahh so you've seen the movie and you know it sucks? Quite an achievement considering it hasn't been made yet And wow I never realised that making movies gets in the way of making games, all this time I thought Japanese game developers and American movie makers were separate.
@Razer Still an opinion, like this article's just about the fact that more details for the next game are coming soon. I don't see how the fact that some people didn't like a 3DS game is relevant here
EA are actually putting as much effort into FIFA 21 as Nintendo are doing with the Switch in general honestly. Differences is, EA are more transparent about it. As nasty as FIFA 21 on Switch might be, It's no more or less lazy than 99% of Nintendo's own products in the last 3 years At least they're not hiding it under the guise of caring about their customers, they openly don't give a damn, and I respect that
@Jayofmaya I don't get you The only people that go through "phases" are sheep jumping on bandwagons because they have no personality There's no age limit to liking a style
@Starfy Being an influencer is objectively not a bad career You can dislike specific influencers and their content but you can't just have a problem with a whole career, like "ugh I hate actors" or "I wish writers would go away" It makes zero sense
@Jayofmaya I see punks in their 50's and 60's, old school teddy boys in their 70's and 80's, goths in their 40's. Liking a style has no age limit unless you're boring
@Starfy Looks at gamers, Youtubers and musicians how many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?
For real though, never understood why older people are so opposed to every new career option that turns up. Literally being a musician was once not a valid career option, same with being a Youtuber. And before you say it doesn't require talent, you try consistently entertaining an audience every day, starting off tiny and growing to thousands. Give it a go, see how easy it is.
@KnightsTemplar This article isn't about Fortnite, or whether or not you prefer other games to Spellbreak I didn't comment "Tetris is more fun" on articles about Mario 35
@Averagewriter Are you calling a game that isn't even finished yet terrible? Or are you saying you assume It'll be bad because you disliked the first one? Because your comment either means "this unfinished game is bad" which makes no sense because how would you know? Or your comment means "I personally am not a fan of this series" which is irrelevant to my comment

Re: Poll: What Was The Best Switch Launch Game (That Wasn't Zelda: Breath Of The Wild)?
