This could be a good thing. Miyamoto is certainly in his element in software rather than hardware. Make a new way to play the game, not a new way to play the game system
There's nothing wrong with a spin off title as long as it's good. The problem is when the spin off title is in a series that has been dormant for a long time
@rjejr They do get notified when a post gets deleted. Usually a deletion means one more step towards a ban. We do not have many options as to an appeals system. The codes thing is the general Nintendo support number but they are slow and very unhelpful at times. Many times they won't tell you what post it was only that it was taken down
I've gotten a post taken down and wasn't even told which one, nor was I given a reason. Again, I don't swear, I don't draw dirty pictures, I don't do any of that junk.
It was also made four months prior so I had no memory as to what it was
@Xilef Except we don't do that or anything rude and we get banned anyway.
This is exactly what we've been trying to say is that the badmins will take down the most innocent posts and put people under massive scrutiny whereas users that draw phallic objects on the support zss go by freely. More people can see that on the miiverse stage. They also change their minds about a post and take down ones that were ok 3 years ago. If one realizes how bad a post is due to typos or errors and deletes it immediately, mods still write it down as a violation.
I've been using miiversd for over a year and a half and getting false banned is more common than people realize. I follow the really popular users and they never drew anything wrong, such as Mario's cap yet the admins take it down, ban them and do not really allow for an appeal. Yet we see in the Support ZSS community all these male wieners and yet they stay there just fine. So having good behavior isn't a foolproof tactic. I'm rather unknown and I got taken down for innocent posts I made over a year ago.
There's a problem with what message Nintendo will get as to the sales of Federation Force. If everyone boycotts it and it sells poorly, Nintendo may shirk back and never touch Metroid again. On the other hand, if it sells well, Nintendo may green light more of these deformed side games for other dormant series like F-Zero.
Sure the similarity to wind waker is there but at least that was a main series game that hasn't been in a series on hiatus for forever. Wind waker isn't some deformed looking side game. Majoras mask was released just a year before wind waker' announcement so at least then we knew the series was constant. It's been 5 years since other m, and as for f-zero it's been almost 11
As for amiibo, maybe stop making millions of stupid gold and silver amiibo and resume production of the rare ones
@aaronsullivan Well those games shouldn't be too hard to have some backwards compatibility, Mk8 and SSB don't really use the ganepad so those games could probably have virtual downloads available at the very least. Not sure about splatoon. Maybe the classic controller Wii concoction
I've always wondered how Nintendo would do if they ignored "innovation" and just focused on raw horsepower. SNES was technologically superior except for processing, and GameCube was moderately successful compared with the WiiU
The fan servicey designs are a massive turnoff. I mean I like women but even I don't feel comfortable with giant busts jiggling in front of me the entire day.
Not to mention the treehouse showed giant maid costumes and missing siblings. Two more giant anime cliches
@PlywoodStick The biggest problem I have is how sickly Japanese this game is, it's like biting into taffy that has too much sugar in that it'll rot your teeth.
This really seems like weeaboo bait with all the high school j-POp junk
Reggie look we love ya but this explanation everybody knows is very half hearted. American audiences don't care about waiting over a year, we just want to see exciting games. You made a spinoff Metroid game when there hasn't been a main series Metroid in so long
@Hachiko The problem is think is that those game series haven't been dormant for so long. Everyone knows Pokemon comes out constantly and therefore people were ok with the spinoff. Metroid on the other hand has not had a game come out for a long time (longer if you think other m was not good)
Here's an odd thing though, next level games already has cool concept art for a Metroid title. Why pour resources into this instead of making a traditional Metroid?
The biggest problem is that there are plenty of bigger games to show besides animal party and animal real estate. I'm certain Devils third could be this year's bayonetta

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Approach to Transforming Franchises Clashes With Fan Expectations

It's about half and half as to whether you deserved it or not.
Re: Nintendo Gets Tough With Miiverse Bans, and Some Users Aren't Exactly Pleased
The biggest problem is not all the rules but that it's so easy to get banned because of how weirdly modded the service is.
Re: Nintendo Gets Tough With Miiverse Bans, and Some Users Aren't Exactly Pleased
Another big problem with it is that the "almighty" code of conduct is extremely vague. They keep interpreting them differently each time

Re: Nintendo Gets Tough With Miiverse Bans, and Some Users Aren't Exactly Pleased
I would say to use bots to regulate text posts and to hand out alerts to either change the post or delete it.
