@Kaze_Memaryu your criticism is that you're not getting enough content out of a game you're paying literally 0 quid for, everyons else's criticism is a variant of the "dark pit took the slot of my favourite character" argument with it not being animal crossing U. You're the kind of person who when offered a free meal will go argue with the chef about what kinds of extra things you would've liked with your food.
@Artwark I find being able to have children with your siblings and spiking the drinks of girls in your team more disgusting than any kissing scenes would be
After all the disgusting things that are included in this game I won't be buying either version. Hopefully it'll bust in the west so that the next fire emblem game will be better.
pokemon colosseum was an absolutely amazing game and snagging pokemon was incredibly fun. It made catching pokemon a neccesity rather than something optional. The story was so good too. I'd really want nothing more than another game in the colosseum/xd series.
@mjc0961 good luck ever getting the green squid amiibo without pre-ordering. But at least you get to feel good that you got to stand by your morals. Not that it will make any difference to nintendo.
they're clearly using direct in the title as a ploy to make people click this article thinking it's about an actual nintendo direct, it seems to have happened to most people in this comment section
Are they waiting until all the smash bros amiibo have released to re-release the popular ones or what? They sure are taking their time, even though that shareholders report showed they know exactly how much demand there is for amiibo like rosalina across all regions.
@Pandaman
There's a difference between a trophy and a fighter though! I would like to see more indie/third party games get in as tophies or even assist trophies, but I think fighters is a bit too high of an aim for indies.
If nintendo releases a mario tennis and an animal crossing game for the wiiu then I have my entire wii library back (equiting captain toad to a mario game and hyrule warriors to skyward sword). I don't think the wiiu has any less notable games than the wii had.
I never heard anyone complain when they changed Impa's skin colour in skyward sword.
@dkxcalibur
That seems to be it, I feel like people here are under the impression that Nintendo will mindlessly do what people request of them. Which is not the case or we'd have Goku in smash right now. At most fans can bring something to the attention of the devs and then they will decide whether they think it's a good idea or not. If Link is female next game it's because Aonuma decided he liked the idea of a female Link, not because SJWs forced him to.
Link changes every game with a few exceptions, it's always a different person. The name Link itself is just a default name, like Robin from fire emblem or Red from pokemon. Changing Link from a guy to a girl would be less of a visible change than wind waker link compared to twlight princess link.
Why change the item system to rentals when we were all fine with obtaining them in dungeons? Why did Game Freak add a fairy type when most people were fine with the types they had? Change happens in videogames, I don't get why some people so vehemently resist it. I personally prefer a playable zelda over a female link but I don't see the problem either way. I honestly wonder if in 1999 people had the same kind of discussions about being able to play as a girl in pokemon.
People who have a problem with Link's gender being changed are the vocal minority, I don't see why they should stick with Link being male all the time just because a few neckbeards get their panties in a twist at the idea of Link being female. Aonuma loves to shake things up just to see what happens (see a link between worlds, I personally hated the gimmicks but he did it anyway) so being able to customize your Link's race or gender is nothing out of line with that philosophy.
They're literally constantly changing the already succesful franchise, in skyward sword they added motion controls and a hub whereas in a link between worlds you rented items and could do the dungeons in any order, etc. Change happens all the time, or did you just want them to make the first game over and over?
I feel like genderbending Link might be considered transphobic and is probably something Nintendo would never do. I have high hopes for a playable zelda in Zelda U though, Aonuma has been talking about the many requests he's gotten for a playable zelda since 2013 and he's always looking to innovate.
So do Europe and North-America both have their own seperate rankings list in which the 20k best get the lucarionite? Because that's what it looks like in-game.
I feel like aonuma is one of the few key developers at nintendo that actually makes an effort to listen to fan feedback. Hopefully zelda u will be his masterpiece!
it's not too easy it's just so dull. The music is really mediocre and forgettable, and I'm just not a fan of the graphics and environment style they went for. I don't find the level design that great either, the boss battles are the only thing I actually quite like about the game.
the site keeps freezing for me, it only gives me an error if I log in with the wrong password but does absolutely nothing otherwise. Anyone else have this problem?
