So, can't help but be curious, since this reflects on the whole hulu disney issue...
When is standalone Hulu being phased out? And if I get Disney Plus, do I get to see it all anyway? Or do I need to effectively double dip for Disney, and a hulu addon?
I sorta feel Broship s a different enough style to be its own thing, and that both 3ds games went the collectible/perfectionist route, so this is still in the top three for me. The darker tone was impressive. The whole Yoob chapter, coupled with an article gave me an impression on Yoshis that I won't soon forget.
@Tyranexx Heavily agreed. Especially when it's harmful to the budgets of early adopters.
Like, I lost $5 for getting Scarlet early, cause this bundle knocks stuff off the price, and the only time it was on sale to mitigate that....it only happened once?
@Tyranexx As far as I know, on top of the dlc being separately priced at more than if you got the bundle, it has gone on sale only a single time, for a small discount, shortly after release. Really stupid.
I just can't ever get pokemon gen 8 or 9 dlc on sale, or justify buying it when it seems from everything I see to be minimal additions, especially with multi waning.
@Ralek85 Hmm. Appreciated, but if that's all it is, I'll pass. The Arkham game predator missions kinda stressed me out in trying to get all objectives.
Hmm. Interesting. So I wasn't here from near the start after all?
I thought the origin point was "Virtual Console Reviews" from back in Wii era. I would use it to help determine which VC games to get, and see what was coming up.
They actually made a whole thing of this, in an uno reverse of Wii U. Nintendo is a brand, and switch is a brand in particular that has potentially multiple units per household. Goes without saying that not everyone will know the controversy, and consoles and games will be snapped up.
But by paying for success with the trust of others, in a sense, how will the momentum fare I wonder?

Random, is Falcom a dev/publisher that uses key cards, or no?

Re: Surprise! Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Gets A Switch & Switch 2 Demo This Week, Includes Bonus Reward
This is a generous demo I might get.
I still need to know when The Millennium Tales is coming.

@Strawblaze
Ah. I'm still on the free trial.
Will my trial carry over from ps4 to ps5?
Re: A Pokémon-Inspired RPG More Than 20 Years In The Making Is Finally Heading To The Switch
This could be good.
Hopefully there are kitsune/youko...
Re: Today Is Doug Bowser's Final Day As Nintendo Of America President
@Mgalens
Awww! That sounds like a good game! And I heard of Stella Glow, but didn't go for it...
Re: Today Is Doug Bowser's Final Day As Nintendo Of America President
@Mgalens Arc Rise Fantasia?
I vaguely remember that name.
What kind of game was it?
Re: Nintendo Comments On Metroid Prime 4's Placement In The Metroid Timeline
@HalBailman
Apart from 4, afaik, they are all inbetween OG Metroid, and Metroid 2.
Possible that Fed Force is also after 2 though.
Re: Nintendo Comments On Metroid Prime 4's Placement In The Metroid Timeline
Some fair comments.
Honestly, when Dread was a thing, I genuinely thought it would have Samus on the run from the federation bc Fusion's ending.
Re: "This Just Didn't Fit Into My Gaming Lifestyle" - Hideki Kamiya Isn't Happy About Switch 2's Lack Of A D-Pad
Huh. At least one thing I have similar to Kamya-san.
I game in my bed.
Re: Talking Point: Does It Bother You That Big Games Companies Are Using GenAI?
Shrine's Legacy mentioned.
Can't wait to try that on console.
I'm just like, I hate AI use becoming the norm.
I thought it was used in search engines and stuff though?
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Ranked Battle Season 4 Is Now Live, With Another Mega Stone Reward

Hackers, how so?
I've yet to have trouble reaching the needed rank.
Re: The US Suffered Its Worst November Since 1995 In Terms Of Hardware Sales
Huh. Prices going higher at a time when ppl need 2-3 part time jobs just to pay bills?
Who coulda seen this coming?
Re: Rumour: A Game-Key Card Alternative? Nintendo May Have Smaller Switch 2 Carts In The Works
New options?
Good.
Some devs still won't bother, but at least it's something.
Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment's Next Patch Out This Week, Adds New Difficulty Mode
If this could recapture the joy of OG HW with more updates like these, that'd be great.
Re: 35 Upcoming Nintendo Switch 1 & 2 Games To Look Forward To In 2026
I would be so much more excited for this if there were more money, and if there weren't so many key card releases...

What's the full list?
Re: Review: Pokémon Legends: Z-A: Mega Dimension (Switch 2) - Repetition Takes The Shine Off
Tfw you sign up for DLC before knowing it's literal repetition.
That's...ultimately the worst thing about Legends ZA on the whole.
Re: The Game Awards GOTY For 2025 Is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Welp, at least Genshin didn't win GOTY yet again. :/
MKW I'm unsure of if it deserves the win over Sonic. They're relatively close, but I lack experience, so just an imo.
Silksong deserved something.
I've yet to play E33. Hoping this can help change the games market for the better.
Re: PSA: If You Want To Use Your Google Pixel As A Webcam On Switch 2, Try It Out Now
How do I even use my Pixel as a webcam?
Never knew the option existed.
As for politics...uhhh.... State of the world is hatred?
Re: Netflix Enters Agreement To Buy Warner Bros. For $82 Billion, Includes Game Studios

Re: Sega Will "Carefully Assess Appropriate Use Cases" When It Comes To "Leveraging AI"
@Pillowpants
This is closer to my stance.
Y'know google searches? Youtube searches? Amazon?
I'm pretty sure those use AI....
Re: Metacritic Shares Updated List Of "Every Metroid Game, Ranked"
So far, I'm still in linear status.
Enjoying it some, but clearly not designed for twin stick gameplay.
Dread below Zero Mission is a sin.

Re: Jennifer Hale Says She Was "Thrown Under The Bus" Amid Bayonetta 3 Casting Controversy

@Grim
I checked today, and they don't count.
Re: Feature: The Tightest, Briskest Mario & Luigi Game Turns 20 Today And Deserves More Love
Didn't know there were softlocks.
Anyway, I really appreciate this game.
I sorta feel Broship s a different enough style to be its own thing, and that both 3ds games went the collectible/perfectionist route, so this is still in the top three for me.
The darker tone was impressive. The whole Yoob chapter, coupled with an article gave me an impression on Yoshis that I won't soon forget.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Was The Best-Selling Nintendo Game In October (US)
@Grim Do online battles count toward that 1000?
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Was The Best-Selling Nintendo Game In October (US)
@Tyranexx
Heavily agreed.
Especially when it's harmful to the budgets of early adopters.

Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Ralek85 Ohh. That's unironically neat!
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Ralek85
Ah. Shame. And, it's only missions?
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Solid_Python
Unfortunately, storage space is a major concern for me rn.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Was The Best-Selling Nintendo Game In October (US)
@Tyranexx
As far as I know, on top of the dlc being separately priced at more than if you got the bundle, it has gone on sale only a single time, for a small discount, shortly after release.
Really stupid.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Was The Best-Selling Nintendo Game In October (US)
@Tyranexx For Scarlet, yes.
For ZA, almost.
I just can't ever get pokemon gen 8 or 9 dlc on sale, or justify buying it when it seems from everything I see to be minimal additions, especially with multi waning.
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Solid_Python
Crossworlds is on sale too?
For how much? I saw pretty much nothing on this.
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Ralek85 Hmm. Appreciated, but if that's all it is, I'll pass.
The Arkham game predator missions kinda stressed me out in trying to get all objectives.
And maybe Switch 2 will offer a boost?
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Was The Best-Selling Nintendo Game In October (US)
@Tyranexx I still need to get the DLC...and like, 5 trades.
Also, brand name presence is a thing, and I can't say I like it in this case. Even if I'm enjoying the game.
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
@Ralek85
Is Mark of the Ninja purely stealth?
I enjoy MGS occasionally...but it's hard for me to get into.
Re: 40 Switch 1 & 2 Games You Should Check Out In The 'Cyber Deals' eShop Sale (North America)
Why is it like, everything is stuff I already have, except AI Nirvana?
Meh. Any good DLC on sale?
Re: Sakurai Is Keen To Live An "Unassuming Life", Despite His Fame And Prestige
Interesting.
I can see why he wants to be out the spotlight.
Far too easy to be made a villain.
Same time, I respect the insane efforts he makes. I missed out on friending him on switch, sadly.
Re: Review: Kirby Air Riders (Switch 2) - Incredibly Chaotic, But Satisfyingly Deep & Rewarding Racing
Me after seeing the test demo: "Looks like the big thing I need to worry about is a lack of modes and content."
This is more or less something I'll be adding to my list.
Also, did not previously know Smash Run's idea came from OG Air Ride.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Kirby Air Riders?
@benmalsky198
Good to know. Not a quick buy for me, but something to consider.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Kirby Air Riders?
As of yet, I'm uncertain.
Only three modes? Haven't kept up with the directs.
It feels like there's quality for what's there, but like with smash, my worry is not enough ways to play.
Re: Nintendo Launches 2026 Calendars, Including One Just For NSO Subscribers
So, free with platinum points....last I checked, that was free plus $20 shipping....
Way more expensive than what you'd find anywhere else.
Re: Official Zelda Movie Photos Give Us Our Best Look Yet At Link And Zelda
Honestly, they look excellent.
I just hope the rest of the movie is up to this standard.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Dragon Power (NES)

Vampire Survivors would def be on my list if it were sidescrolling...
Re: Site News: Nintendo Life Turns 20 Today!
Hmm. Interesting. So I wasn't here from near the start after all?
I thought the origin point was "Virtual Console Reviews" from back in Wii era.
I would use it to help determine which VC games to get, and see what was coming up.
Re: Nintendo States Its Intention To Acquire More Development Teams
Rareware PLEASE!
Golden back in the day.
Also, if it can help out the poor indie devs forced to make a game roughly every couple years, Gamefreak. Or The Pokemon Company.
Re: Talking Point: Smashing Switch 2 Numbers Prove Nintendo's Strategy Is Super Effective
I'm kinda still surprised but not completely.
They actually made a whole thing of this, in an uno reverse of Wii U. Nintendo is a brand, and switch is a brand in particular that has potentially multiple units per household. Goes without saying that not everyone will know the controversy, and consoles and games will be snapped up.
But by paying for success with the trust of others, in a sense, how will the momentum fare I wonder?
