I get gaming has changed over the years but in a world where every title is analysed and compared I miss the days where you just popped in a cartridge and played it, if there where bugs and glitches that was it and you rolled with it things were simple. That being said the demo ran ok and I enjoyed my time
The fact that my daughter plays my switch often and Minecraft is one of her favourites, Mario Kart World and Mario Kart 8 before it it doesn't surprise me the games that take a hold of the top spots the most, the fact it reached where it did proves it's worth.
It’s a double edged sword to be fair I really like what they’ve done here but at the same time I can appreciate the subtlety of what Nintendo have offered either works
Nintendo have done this for years I remember the US and UK having the female characters removed from the port of Final Fight when they swapped Poison and Roxy with Billy and Sid. Still makes me laugh you couldn’t fight with woman but attacking people with bottles, knives and metal pipes is fine.
Nice to see it getting patches but let’s be realistic it’s never going to look pretty, they will never go to those lengths, I could be wrong but I still doubt it
I never typically buy anything day one I have Switch games from 2017 I haven’t finished so there is plenty of time to wait for a tiny discount if sorts
Probably because I’m a bit older but I find it hard to stomach still, clearly gone are the days where we had a choice digital or the full game. Now we take digital or an empty cartridge that downloads the same thing. Let’s be clear beyond those that say “you can sell them though” we benefit in no way by the laziness of these things, clearly the customer is getting shafted more by the day and nobody cares
Not to sound old but do you remember back in the day when the game that shipped was what you got bugs and all lol At least there is potential for patching, although it is From Software still looking at you Bloodborne and your poor frame pacing.
It’s funny in the past I’ve always bought PC games and PlayStation games when they became cheap yet oddly I’ve always cut Nintendo some slack like it’s just the way it is and paid their prices, maybe they are counting on this but I for one will probably still get the games but I’ll think far harder about titles I get and how many I get
I buy both physical and digital but I see no benefit to these whatsoever, so you can sell them great these would be the last thing I purchased of a market place. This one is absolutely a miss from Nintendo
@the_beaver I think it's easiest to just experience it, back when I played original PC release I had no idea what it was, the new version is even better.

Re: Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP - Switch 2 Edition Locks In New Release Date, Includes Paid Upgrade (Japan)
It's sad that "Stable 60fps" is a feature like we should be grateful. Despite this I am looking forward to picking it up.
Re: Capcom Arcade Stadium Physical Features Five Cover Options, But Which Is Your Favourite?
I liked LRG back in the beginning not so much now, I must admit the Final Fight original art work cover is fantastic and gives me mega nostalgia vibes
Re: Nintendo Renews Trademarks For 3DS And Wii U Games
I’m assuming this doesn’t necessarily mean much, no disrespect but these are two titles I’m not losing any sleep over.

Re: iFixit Performs A Full Teardown Of Nintendo's "P**s-Poor" Pro Controller
This is disappointing the ability to replace parts on my original controller and swap custom shells was the best part

Re: Game Devs Weigh In On Switch 2, And A "Much Better" eShop Is A Must
I mean we didn’t need devs to tell us that, it put a whole new meaning to the term doom scrolling.

Re: Talking Point: Which Nintendo Series Are You Most Excited To See Return On Switch 2?
Something we’ve not seen for a while. F-Zero would be at the top for me as it was my day one purchase with my SNES, a close second would be Star Fox
Re: Review: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Switch) - Still The King Of Mario RPGs
My standards have been set pretty low as I quite liked Colour Splash! and The Origami King was also fine, I imagine this is going to blow my mind lol

Re: The Stanley Parable Is Finally Getting A Physical Release On Switch
Instant buy for me, I feel I've somehow clocked more hours in this game than should be allowed.
