@JaxonH the website is Nintendo Life, not Jaxon's Nintendo Life. The idea of running a successful website is pleasing as many customers as possible and not just one. If you hate the stock market articles, skip them and don't berate the people who like them. Otherwise people will assume you are 12 for getting hurt feelings over the existence of articles that don't interest you.
@gaga64 I would say that it's more revolutionary than waggle controls, and I don't think the price of the Switch is so much more than the Wii was in terms of inflation.
Not sure why fellow PAL region Australia got this months ago and Europe still doesnt have it. Luckily the two regions are part of the same region lock, so any European who wants an English version can import it from Australia.
@Grawlog yeah I used my one month PS+ trial to get Jackbox Party Pack 1 and 2 on sale, and I only had free giveaway months of Gold for my Xbox One (which I have traded in all my games for and I'm about to sell entirely). I would be happy to pay for Switch online to make sure it's done properly this time - I had issues with Wii U online after Wii online was amazing,even with slower Internet speeds, until the company running it went under.
@XCWarrior 4 million sales at $10 a pop? $40m is nothing to sneeze at, and it hasn't hit Android yet, where it could do a lot more than iOS. And also it's going to be a great advert for the Switch, just as Pokemon Go sold alt of 3DSs and Pokemon games.
@Mellor2000 the fact that all imports are now costing more and all exports are now worth less because some people thought Britain would save money by leaving the EU. Didn't take long after the vote for the major promise of the Brexit camp of extra millions for health to be proven a complete lie.
@nessisonett Kingdom Hearts UX is reptitive, every level feels the same with with a different picture as a background. I played it for 2 weeks and realised I was bored. Kairosoft have the best mobile games, both paid and freemium. Nintendo should bring out a Kairosoft collection on 3DS or Switch.
@AirElephant What lazy ports are coming to Switch? Zelda was repurposed so it would be perfect for the Switch. Mario Kart 8 is getting new content and having the graphics look a lot better (not just upscale to 1080p, they look so much smoother) Splatoon gets a whole new sequel and RMX doubles the content as well as boosting the graphics (but not as much as Mario Kart 8).
Personally I think Fast Racing Neo is better than any F-Zero title. I just want Shinen to make their own game on a Nintendo budget. I'm hoping RMX sells so well that Nintendo funds Fast Racing 2 and really uses it to promote the Switch to the hardcore racing fans.
@rjejr The Switch is the final nail in the Vita coffin. Vita developers are already looking at the Switch, because the Switch is so many times more powerful than the Vita.
@Petraplexity @jsa emulators and ripping your own ROMs still isn't quite as clear cut as that. But of course you can't actually play any ROMs on an emulator as that makes it not a back up anymore.
@Yalaa actually it wouldn't be illegal for them to do this when they own the game. I know an author who found a pirated ebook of a trilogy and he turned it into his own ebook to sell. Of course the likelihood of Nintendo doing this is very low.
@FantasiaWHT Rogue One has nothing to do with Rogue Squadron. And EA Games Star Wars games (like Battlefront 3) are weak nostalgia cash ins, just like the last 2 movies.
@Nintenjoe64 There is an Uncharted Waters Online, but it's not by KT. It's okay but it's not UW2, so a full on Uncharted Waters 3 would be awesome. The other thing I want is Genghis Khan 3, and maybe a Warriors title based on it, with characters from all over Asia, Europe and North Africa.
@SanderEvers Are you really going to just play each game once? Don't get an FPS or racing game, they often have less levels. And Wii Sports had only a handful of sports.
@NEStalgia personally, Zelda seemed to have far less slowdowns on Switch and Mario Kart and Splatoon look smoother in the graphics department with better textures, making them look even more beautiful.
@Yasume I'm guessing the fact that lots of people are preordering the Switch means nothing? Yes in your opinion it's not enough. But your opinion isn't law.

Re: Tatsumi Kimishima Talks About a Potential 3DS Successor
I would see it more of being a 2DS successor, more for those with budget concerns. It would also have a much longer lasting battery than the Switch.

Re: The Jackbox Party Pack 3 Announced For Nintendo Switch
Jackbox have the best games, perfect for the Switch.
Re: Nintendo Switch Version Of Skylanders Imaginators Doesn't Support Traps Or Vehicles
People wanting Donkey Kongs Kart in the game will be sorely disappointed. I don't think I could be bothered picking this up for $10 in a year.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing Range for Switch Online Service
@LeRaposa Hence why they are charging a pittance.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing Range for Switch Online Service
@Moshugan Switch is a bigger screen, so it could be further away from the eyes, which should help stop the pixel toon and blurriness.

Re: Kimishima on Making Splatoon 2 and Other Games for the Competitive Gaming Scene
@Bgr4u2 why? It's smart to make a games console about actual games and not wasting system resources on non game stuff.
Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Microtransaction Prices and Early Impressions Emerge
I'll try it and do my usual thing of never spending a cent.

Re: Animal Crossing Mobile Game Delayed Until Later In The Year
Makes a lot of sense to push it back, don't want to saturate the market too much so people buy less Nintendo mobile games.
Re: Nintendo Is Ramping Up Switch Production Following "Good" Pre-Order Demand
@SaKo only because people who don't know many people didn't know anyone who was getting one.

@AlexSora89 However Smash Brawl could have been one to vote on...
Re: Pokkén Tournament and ARMS in the Running for Evo 2017 Player's Choice Spot
@shonenjump86 I never thought much of Killer Instinct and DoA, too gimmicky and not solid enough for top level professional's
Re: Warner Bros Resurrects Disney Infinity Studio Avalanche For Cars 3 Video Game
Let's hope they can scale the heights of Toy Story 3. Disney Infinity was okay, but weak compared to the excellent Toy Story 3 game.

@Dakt only of its TNA AJ. He's been watered down so much in WWE, while Cena is sometimes allowed to be funny, and sometimes he can be very funny.

Re: Tomorrow Corporation is Bringing Its Back Catalogue to Nintendo Switch at Launch
@JamesR as it's a triple pack I would think not, just like with Halo MCC.
Re: Tomorrow Corporation is Bringing Its Back Catalogue to Nintendo Switch at Launch
Only ever played Little Inferno, my kids would love this triple pack.
Re: Nintendo Has Involved Third Parties "Since The Beginning" With Switch, Says EA's Patrick Söderlund
@Andrzej777 Ubisoft supported the Wii U much more than any other third party,even taking losses on some ports and still coming back.
edit: WB also supported the Wii U especially with LEGO games but also other stuff like Injustice.
Re: Nintendo Has Involved Third Parties "Since The Beginning" With Switch, Says EA's Patrick Söderlund
I read it as more than enough gamers will go to the Switch for EA to bring a few games to it.
Re: First Impressions: Getting Some Laps In With FAST RMX
@AirElephant What lazy ports are coming to Switch? Zelda was repurposed so it would be perfect for the Switch.

Re: First Impressions: Getting Some Laps In With FAST RMX
@Lizuka I never cared for F-Zero at all but loved Fast Racing Neo.

@Yasume Experts with a track record? How dare they think their research is more reliable than my opinion!!!!!!
Re: DFC Intelligence Believes Nintendo Switch Can Shift 40 Million Units by 2020
If it gets the NES Mini/Pokemon Go/Super Mario Run hype, it could do better.
Re: Talking Point: Let's Explore What Could Be Done with HD Rumble on the Nintendo Switch

Re: Talking Point: Let's Explore What Could Be Done with HD Rumble on the Nintendo Switch
@nhSnork I wonder what kind of force feedback they could get?
Re: Talking Point: Let's Explore What Could Be Done with HD Rumble on the Nintendo Switch
Sports games. Switch Sports would be 100 times better than any sports games on Wii or Wii U.

Nobunaga's Ambition had an English release on PS4. I'm not sure about ROt3K 13
though.

Re: Super Mario Run Sprints Onto Android This March
@Solid_Stannis I hope I'm not the only one who got that.

It will time the hype quite well with the Switch launch.
