GX is without doubt the best. Nintendo is stumped as it’s probably impossible to surpass it. I’ll be more than happy with a remastered version with online time trials
I reckon these will drop to the 100 price point within a year.. Black Friday / cyber Monday will be interesting (keep an eye out for them mark down special deals) soon as 1.5 and 2 come out
OMG.. gonna preorder this on eshop right away.. it looks soooooo friggin awesome! Links Awakening was my best childhood gaming experience. Only think I’m not a fan of is the logo.. surely they could’ve done better and if they really couldn’t they should’ve stuck to the original.. the new font sucks!
I’ve actually not played any Crash Bandicoot games at all so might cop this soon.. (you might mock me for never doing so but in them days most PlayStation platformers had extremely floaty gameplay mechanics total 180 on say any Nintendo platformer)
Good old Folly Molly is at it again eh.. I can’t remember the last good game he made that I played.. anyways, he says he’s a fan of the Switch (in my opinion) because it’s the cool hip thing to say nowadays.. I wanna see games damn it.. games from this dude, cliffy b and the rest of the supposed Nintendo switch is great and we love Nintendo etc guys
No Metroid, no F-Zero, no mention of what Retro have been working on, no Animal Crossing, no new Zelda no new Mario, no 3DS news, no info on Online, no big third party announcements, no CoD, no GTAOnline, this was pretty much bare minimal.. they could just easily have released a simple YouTube trailer for Smash Ultimate and called it a day. Absolutely lazy on Nintendo’s part.
Absolutely hate the look.. gross! They should’ve gone for a more retro inspired look - it would’ve looked waaaaay cool and super nostalgic.. Konami are idiots!
@link3710 give em a chance.. Tencent are going to be a hugeeeeee player and will invest in Ubi to get the best out of them.. creative freedom.. money.. and a monster market to dive into with the biggest baddest meanest tag team partner anyone could wish for. This is great news.. the potential is simply put - immense!
What a waste.. they should've implemented Miitomo as the Switch social network.. there was soooooo much potential.. heck.. I made miis of all my phone contacts on Miitomo
Honestly speaking I strongly feel it needed a mix.. the shrines were cool n all but the game definitely would've benefited greatly from having a traditional dungeon in each area.
Poor sales are hardly surprising given the fact that released a nerfed sub par game compared to other consoles. Heck even the menus and GUI looks different.
Gimped games don't tend to sell well on any platform. There's no parity between the switch version and other platforms! Where's the journey? Where's the missing FUT modes and challenges? Even the GUI isn't the same!
If it were on the Switch I'd have bought 2 copies, one to play and one to keep sealed + any collectors edition.. instead.. I'll be giving it a miss. Nostalgia runs deep.. but it's not easily swayed.. games like this and / or in the future Chrono Trigger, should ideally be Switch exclusives.
Nostalgia will always run deep.. but the harsh reality is that Rare lost itself in those days and it clearly showed that with its output of games.. even their recent games have been extremely disappointing.. I see there's a lot of hype around their upcoming pirate style game but if I'm honest it looks kinda.. meh.. the best thing Rare had done since leaving Nintendo is creating the Microsoft Avatars - they look cool and have earned Microsoft a decent chuck of coin over the years.
Looks like ass.. guess I'll wait n see what Razer end up making (only qualm about the official Cro Controller is that there's no headset / mic input.. would've been pretty cool)
Probably would've been better for them to have had a decent selection available for the next iPhone's launch.. also they would've sold a poopoo ton had they released Super Mario Run cases when it launched.. hype is a potent thing
The Switch Online voice chat makes Wii Speak look like the starship enterprise.. Nintendo.. you suck. No way is anyone gonna pay you to use that poopy app.
They can't abandon the market like that.. the 3DS must have a successor.. from a value perspective too.. parents are waaaaay more likely to buy their kids a 3ds rather than a switch as it's way cheaper.
Make a new handheld. Lighter, cheaper, sturdier. Keep it 1 screen to keep costs low. Make it 320p / 480p at max (think of the battery folks) from the get go design this for kids. Price it for kids. They'd sell a hundred million for sure..
