Re: Streets Of Rage And Etrian Odyssey Composer Isn't Sure Why The Switch Exists

Luna_110

@Mogster
I'm curious. Most people agree that Breath of the Wild completely upset the traditional Zelda fórmula. How would more power helped that? If they changed the gameplay anymore, people would accuse that Zelda of not being Zelda. (Some already do.)

Plus, the Switch is as powerful as it can be for mobile devices. The Tegra X1 is top of the line.

Re: Nintendo Switch OS Version 3.0.0 Is Now Live

Cool about the wired connection for the Pro Controller. It will help for the more competitive scene in Splatoon and Arms, due to the lag.

@Windy I honestly doubt such an update will ever come, since they put out a new Pro Controller. They want you to get the new Pro, not stick with the old one.

Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Dismisses Threat To Switch From Microsoft's Xbox One X

@NerdNoiseRadio
I agree with you! I've been thinking of getting something to complement my future Switch purchase, and I've been inclining to start saving for a gaming PC.
Yes, PS4/Xone have some interesting exclusives, but I could play Xbox's on a PC and I can live without playing Ps4's, while a Pc gives me access to Steam.

Plus, I can use a powerful PC for other stuff. I'm not keen on multimedia centers - I barely use Netflix - so I don't need another box in my TV stand with the extra cables involved.

Enjoy your purchases! That's the most important thing though. Cheers!

Re: Editorial: Nintendo Went Its Own Way at E3 2017, and It Mostly Worked

Luna_110

It was a solid presentation, but the third day of the Treehouse should have been focused on Nindies and the third parties games - FIFA, Skyrim, etc. - to shown that while Nintendo's first party is on point, they are also working on fixing relationship with the third parties. It was bit disappointing in that way.

Plus, the lack of announcements for VC and updates for the OS, along the lack of definitive release dates for the Fall-Winter games makes me think "Great, but not amazing". This E3 was a bit underwhelming on all fronts.

Re: Xbox Boss Wades In On Sony's Decision To Block Minecraft Cross-Platform Play

Luna_110

Sony's excuse for this was stupid, I can't really believe someone would say its right.

They don't want to protect anyone, they simply want you to buy a PS4 if you want to play with your friends. Should they be so insecure if they're market leaders? I mean, you could hypothesize that most players that want a PS4 already have one, and his friends have one.

For the players, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. They deserve as much flak as any company gets when they are anti-consumer.

Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Sets Out Nintendo's Stance On eSports

Luna_110

I like that approach for the masses. I'm no big fan of the "pro" gamers - most of my experiences with them have been quite bad. I want to focus on having fun, while the Smash pros harp about frames, wavedashing and all that things.

I wouldn't want Splatoon to go down the path the Smash community has gone for example. Of course, before somebody says something, its my experience. I don't doubt others have had far better experiences than me.

Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Dismisses Threat To Switch From Microsoft's Xbox One X

Luna_110

Between a PS4 Pro or a XOX... I'd prefer to build a computer to have alongside my Switch.
Those consoles require you have a 4k TV to get all the benefits and I'm not changing my TV unless we get another big jump in tech, like it was from CRT to plasmas, or I win one in a contest.
I can simply upgrade a computer according to my needs and have Steam. I can live without the exclusives, thank goodness.

Re: We Know There's An Appetite For Virtual Console On Switch, Says Reggie Fils-Aime

Luna_110

I hope they give someway of retaining games we already have on the 3DS and the Wii U on the Switch. I don't mind paying an upgrade fee - I simply don't want to pay full price for some games again.

And for GC games, I do hope we see them this gen, or I'll have to hack my Wii U and start dumping my GC minidisks. I've had the itch to replay Sunshine and Rogue Leader for days!

Re: Reggie "Can't Say" If A Cloud Save Solution Is Coming To Switch

Luna_110

We really need cloud saves. If someone stoles my Switch (I do hope it doesn´t happen!), we in South America have really bad luck dealing with NoA to recover our digital games and things.

I've heard of cases for the 3DS where NoA, just because people are using the NA eshop, give your user back to you but they delete your games for breaching the terms and agreements (not using a eshop not corresponding to your country).

It isn't Reggie's fault, I know - shame Japan is so stubborn. I bet Shibata, at this point, has more clout than him before the managers in NoJ.

Re: Doug Bowser Says Nintendo Has Learned A Lot From Demand For NES Mini

Luna_110

I do hope they don't focus too much, if at all, in VR. I still can't get what's so attractive about it, but then again, I'll admit that I simply dislike the idea of aislating myself from the world while I play.

Plus, they have been more careful with the Mini NES, they never said it was a holiday only product. I managed to snag one but I would have preordered if they said it was a limited edition.

Re: MercurySteam Elaborates On How It Came To Work On Metroid: Samus Returns

Luna_110

Nintendo won't ignore the 60 million install base they have on the 3DS. From a business perspective it would be a stupid move, and Nintendo IS a business first.

That said, even when I get my Switch I'll be playing my 3DS for a long time, just like my Wii U and -gasp!- my Wii, since my backlog is stupidly huge, and as somebody with a normal adult schedule, I can't sit all day at home playing.

More on topic. I liked what I say in the Treehouse, so while it won't be a day one for me since I'm not a Metroid die hard fan, I think I'll eventually get it down the road.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Nintendo at E3 2017?

Luna_110

It was a solid presentation, easily the best for me of the big three, but it didn't really reach the part of "amazing". I'll admit, the first party lineup is solid - Odyssey looks fantastic, I'm really excited for FE Warriors, Rabbids looks far better than expected, and Takahashi doesn't dissapoint with XC2. Plus Metroid, nuff said.

But what about third parties? EA, Bethseda and Psyonix are bringing big games too, and Nintendo needs to promote them if they don't want to fail and continue the third party cycle. The responsability here is on Nintendo - they should have showed them in the spotlight, or on the Treehouse. FIFA is realeasing on September and they haven't done anything to push it on Switch players!

Plus, as others said, we missed the Nindies. Its an excellent moment to push games from those developers that have been on board, I'd would loved to hear an update (even if it was a 1 or 2 minutes video) from Playtonic about YL for Switch. A Treehouse Nindie day could have easily replaced day two or day three of Treehouse.

Finally... VC and OS updates. Couldn't they at least tease if they're coming now or next year? Leaving us in the dark is a common Nintendo strategy but one its starting to grow really annoying by now.

Re: Review: ARMS (Switch)

Luna_110

I hope it does well, and that people that like it can continue to enjoy it, just like Splatoon. Its a pass for me, though, I dislike fighting games, specially when they are so dependent on online.

Nice to see NL liked it!

Re: Remake of Metroid II, Metroid: Samus Returns, Announced for 3DS at E3

Luna_110

@Boidoh
As a suggestion, and I don't want to fight, just simply avoid the articles of games that don't interest you. Two Metroid games in development don't mean anything regarding the chances of a DKC being in development.

You're dissapointed that there weren't announcements that appealed to you, and that's fair. Raining on someone's else happiness isn't fair, it isn't an attitude someone who's almost an adult should have and its resembling a troll.

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Confirmed for Holiday 2017

Luna_110

The game looks fantastic from what they showed in the Treehouse segment. It isn't empty - the plains had plenty of enemies - and personally, I like the artstyle. I don't think it feels generic at all.

Plus, it seems Monolith can't win - check out old XCX threads, and people slammed them for character models, specially the faces. They changed the models and people slam them, again....

I can't wait for this. Takahashi doesn't dissapoint when we isn't rushed by time and budget. Bring this on!

Re: A New Pokémon RPG Has Been Confirmed For Development For Nintendo Switch

Luna_110

Well, we know now what Nintendo's main game will be for Holiday 2018. When they announce the official release date, its going to be a stampede to buy Switches.

I hope we get an adventure with the main game worlds, but with (upgraded) Colosseum or XD graphics. Game Freak has a decent foundation there!

Take all the time you want to hit this one out of the park Game Freak, and please, fix the damn performance issues!

Re: Video: Marth Takes Centre Stage In Fire Emblem Warriors E3 Footage

Luna_110

Its a shame they aren't using more of the franchise cast apart from Awakening, Shadow Dragon and Fates, but it still interests me enough to be day one. I always liked the idea of having the characters fight like this!

I do hope reviews don't slam this simply due to not having the characters they want. The roster doesn't mean the game is bad or good.

Re: Super Mario Odyssey to Launch on 27th October

Luna_110

This looks amazing, I'm truly hyped for it!
It will be day one for me, its great that its October and not December - waiting until holidays to play this gem would be a pain.
And the main song is really catchy. I'll definitively download it to add it to my music collection!

Re: Feature: What We Expect from the Nintendo Spotlight and Treehouse at E3 2017

Luna_110

I hope we get a release date for FE Warriors, Odyssey, Skyrim and Xenoblade, plus hopefully we'll get news on MH XX, since I wanted to try it out for Switch.
For those saying Mario won't be enough... Mario is a even better seller than Zelda. He's Nintendo's most recognizable brand. Odyssey will be a show stopper on its own, from what we've seen from the trailer.

@Kogorn733 The spotlight will only focus on Switch games. It was already announced.
