@Cherkov With hands, with knives, with chemicals, with any item at their disposal. Stop blaming the gun.
The hearts and minds of our children and society has been corrupted and de-sensitized to death and violence. Many factors are to be blamed, lack of respect for authority, God, exposure to violence in TV, movies and video games.
You can't deny that what you are around affects you. As a whole, we are more violent than we were even 30 years ago. I remember when Mortal kombat first came out I saw some effects on kids.
It's not only games, look at TV, movies and music- so much hate and violence. No regard for the sanctity of life.
I'm not blaming the entertainment industry as a whole, but it doesn't help that so many kids are desensitized from violence and you can't blame the gun industry, it's a tool, it doesn't think for itself. There's a lot of blame to go around but different industries and schools of thought with the Outlook of life and respect.
If they go all digital, I am out. I have no interest in a company controlling what I have access to. It's their financial loss in the long run. I don't subscribe to music, I buy it on CD and rip it if needed. I'm just all talk, I've cut way back any ways on my gaming and entertainment as for me, it as really gone in a direction I am not interested in participating in- that includes TV, movies, etc.
Edit: I am one of the gamers that will take out my older games/systems and re-play them. I'm thinking about doing so with Mario 64 once I'm finished with Odyssey.
@Damo It may not spoil the main story but still ruins the surprise. I guess I could just not visit this site anymore if that is their attitude to a brand new game. I can understand if it were a year later and this news came out.
@JohnSReid I don't want to do that, I never had to before. I would much rather have it under my account. I would also rather have MY game save on MY cartridge, not tied to the console.
There's too much "boo hoo and wah wah" on here. Just enjoy the game, it's good. If you don't like it, don't play it. Some people are opinionated just to be opinionated. What has happened to this site?
I brought mine to work once to show some co-workers. It definitely is more noticeable in the carrying case than compared to my 3DS XL but I am fine with that.
I haven't had a chance to use it much on the road, too bad I didn't have it back in October when I was out of town for the week.
@JaxonH The problem with that is not everyone uses social media and even if you do, not all of your friends use it. It was a good way to meet other people.

Is this really an appropriate topic to be had here? Who would actually look at things like this?
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 5.0.0 Is Now Available
@vitalemrecords Ugh, no no no. Achievements ruin a game; they take the fun of playing a game and turn it into a chore.

Re: Take Centre Court And Trick Shot Your Way To Glory In Mario Tennis Aces This June
Will there be new Amiibos for this game?
Re: Praise The Sun, We're Getting A Dark Souls Solaire Amiibo
I don't care for the game nor will I play it, but it's nice that Nintendo is still making Amiibos!
Re: Soapbox: My Nintendo's Updated Rewards Scheme Is Anything But Rewarding
No thanks, I'll wait for some good physical rewards like it use to be.

Re: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Will Get A Retail Release (But It'll Cost You $60)
I'm fine with that...
Re: Luigi’s Balloon World Is Now Available In Super Mario Odyssey
@Nincompoop You're kidding, right? The game is far from boring, I'm still playing it and love the explorational part of the game.
Re: Rare's Local Video Game Store Is Closing Its Doors After 24 Years
I haven't bought a digital game yet, I don't plan to, either. Local only as well.
Re: Soapbox: Dark Souls’ Ruthless Recipe Perfectly Suits Switch’s Evolving Audience
I have no interest in this game. Tennis on the other hand... yes!
Re: Here’s Why Traditional Dungeons Got Axed in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
They should have had a mix of the 2. I got SO tired of one shrine after another- very boring.
Re: Feature: Five Reasons You Should Play Zelda: Breath of the Wild's DLC Pack 2
TERRIBLE idea on the motorbike.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Working On A Smartphone Legend Of Zelda Game
I'm personally not interested in a mobile game.
Re: Poll: How Do You Play the Nintendo Switch - As A Portable, Home Console or Hybrid?
98% of the time it's TV.
Re: ARMS Punches Its Way Onto Switch On 16th June
I'm really looking forward to this one! I wonder if the commentator will always be talking? He reminds of of the NBA Jam commentator.
Re: Soapbox: ARMS is the New Splatoon for the Nintendo Switch Generation
I'm looking forward to this one! I hope that the controls are motion based!
Re: Hey! Pikmin will Launch with New amiibo on 28th July
I don't think that I'll pick this one up, I'd rather have it for the Switch. I'll get the Amiibo though.
Re: Feature: What We Expect From the Nintendo Direct - 12th April
They will disclose full details on all of the upcoming Zelda DLC....
I'm fine with what they have mentioned.
Re: Video: Updated Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Trailer Aims for Top Gear
I'm getting it. I paid full price two years ago?
Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed For 12th April - Focused on Splatoon 2, ARMS and More
Pikmin 4....? I'm not as interested about the 3DS one, just a version for the Switch.
Re: The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe File Size Speeds Into View
Physical for me; I just prefer the boxes and the disc/cartridges.
Re: Super Mario Happy Meal Toys Are Headed To McDonald's In North America
When? We don't eat there, but I will buy something for a toy or two.
Re: Nintendo Switch Teardown Suggests Production Cost Is Around $260 Per Unit
@HenFjo Yes!
I'd also like to have a Legend of Zelda edition joycons- dipped in Triforce gold just like my Skyward Sword Wiimote+.
Re: A New Patch Is Live for Lego City Undercover
I'm still deciding on whether or not to get this game. I haven't played it on the Wii U. Is it a fun game?
Re: Australian Distributor Claims Switch Version Of RiME Has Been Pushed Back To Q3 2017
I'll wait, no big deal. I don't care about the achievements, etc.
Re: Guide: How to Farm Dragon Parts in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
What can I do with them other than the quest related thing (SPOILER--------- Springs)?

Re: Guide: How To Get Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's Coolest-Looking Outfit, The Radiant Set
Is it POSSIBLE for you to NOT post spoiler based images in your titles? PLEASE?
Re: Lego City Undercover Box Reveals a Mandatory 13GB Install
Ah, thanks for the update. I'm planning on getting the physical version.
Re: Don't Start A New Game Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild If You Want To Keep Your Save Data
@JohnSReid I don't want to do that, I never had to before. I would much rather have it under my account. I would also rather have MY game save on MY cartridge, not tied to the console.
Re: Don't Start A New Game Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild If You Want To Keep Your Save Data
Are you serious? I usually have two game saves on my cartridges...... All of the other games have let you do this. This really should be fixed.
Re: Video: Let's Have a Closer Look at the Player's Guide for Zelda: A Link to the Past
I still have my copy... I remember seeing in Wal-mart as a young boy and just had to have it. I loved the artwork and stories.
Re: Super Mario Run Is Finally Coming To Android Next Week
There's too much "boo hoo and wah wah" on here. Just enjoy the game, it's good. If you don't like it, don't play it. Some people are opinionated just to be opinionated. What has happened to this site?
Re: Disney Afternoon Collection Includes Six NES Classics, But It's Skipping Nintendo Systems
I want to replay every single one of those games; especially Chip n Dale. PLEASE release this to the switch!
Re: Disney Afternoon Collection Includes Six NES Classics, But It's Skipping Nintendo Systems
I'd love to have this for the Switch... why was it skipped?
Re: Video: Digital Foundry Shows How to Get the Fastest Load Times on Nintendo Switch
Cartridge speed is fine for me. I'm sure that the cartridges are not high end like some SD cards you can buy.
Re: Editorial: On the Road With the Nintendo Switch
I brought mine to work once to show some co-workers. It definitely is more noticeable in the carrying case than compared to my 3DS XL but I am fine with that.
I haven't had a chance to use it much on the road, too bad I didn't have it back in October when I was out of town for the week.
Re: Nintendo Releases Multiple 'Making Of' Videos for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
UFO's are an awful idea!
Re: You Can Now Download The Splatoon 2 Global Testfire On Your Switch, But There's A Catch
I'm going to wait until I can get a copy from the store. Q3 release date? Is that the end of Summer?
Re: My Nintendo Adds a Breath of The Wild Wallpaper to the Rewards Lineup
I'd much rather have physical items as before.
Re: Breath of the Wild's Art Director on Why Link's Classic Hat is Missing
@Alshain01Thank you, I'll keep a look out for it.
Re: Here's Why Nintendo Switch Games Cost More Than Those For Other Consoles
I'm fine with that; I much prefer physical over digital.
Re: Breath of the Wild's Art Director on Why Link's Classic Hat is Missing
I would rather it had been in the game, not as an amiibo addon. Too bad.
Re: "Wouldn't That Be Wonderful?" - Reggie Fils-Aime on Cloud Services for Nintendo Switch
The games saves should go on the cartridge... what happens if my system fails??
Re: Nintendo Switch Won't Have Miiverse Or StreetPass
@JaxonH The problem with that is not everyone uses social media and even if you do, not all of your friends use it. It was a good way to meet other people.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Screenshot Confirms Returning Character
@Anti-Matter That's why you didn't play? The green tunic?
I hope that it is featured in the game... they may as well take out the Triforce as well.
Re: Hori Range of Nintendo Switch Accessories, Including LAN Adapter, Arrives on Amazon UK
@Emperor-Palpsy Agreed. I'm looking forward to the adapter.
Re: Poll: What Are Your Nintendo Switch Pre-Order and Launch Day Plans?
Why would I want a SD card? I'm buying the physical cartridges.
