@Tsurii I think the "It's a kids' show" argument automatically undermines said shows by saying that they are, by default, worse than other types of shows, when in reality, many adults are enjoying the kind of shows which are shown on channels like Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon.

I've been following this one for a while since it was from my very own Northern Ireland. I really want it to sell well but the whole New 3DS exclusivity thing coupled with it being cannabalised by Switch really knocked this game out from underneath its feet. Sad

Re: Video: Alex Shares His First Impressions Of The Nintendo Switch With Nintendo UK

@CircuitWrangler3 I have been on Nintendolife for 2 years now. I know Alex does good video content and has criticised Nintendo in the past. But would you not say that Alex is unable to say wat he fels about the joycons in their entirety? I'm not calling anyone a liar, but you can take everything that journalists in these Switch promotion videos are saying with a pinch of salt purely becuse they are in videos that are primarily for marketing purposes rather than objective review purposes.

@faint Christ I don't think he hates the controller, I'm saying he didn't talk about the negatives. I know @AlexOlney gets this and I don't think that you are a liar, but its important to be sceptical of media. I don't think Alex is trying to trick you, but Nintendo, being a corporate orginisation tat wants to make money, are tricking you into think that his thoughts are 100% praise by listing only the positive things he has to say. It's how advertising works.

@faint glamourising as on, saying positive things about the Switch. Playing games on the toilet is a positive talking point, so it is glamourising. Note the difference between "glamorous" and "glamourising". As regards to negatives surrounding the controller, I don't know, because I haven't touched, but it isn't hard to imagine some because no controller is perfect. Ones I can think of of the top of my head are the fact that they are tiny, and that the analogue stick makes games like Ultra Street Fighter 2 awkward to pay using a single JoyCon

Re: Atlus Is Bringing Shin Megami Tensei To Nintendo Switch

@retro_player_22 The Persona, DeSu games aren't SMT spinoffs, rather part of the Megami Tensei conglomerate of series. So when they say "Shin Megami Tensei" they mean mainline. In the '00s the games all had SMT added to their titles in the west to try and boost their popularity following the success of Nocturne.

Also, if you're hoping for an Apocalypse sequel don't hold your breath. Every numbered entry in the MegaTen series is self-contained.
