@shani Nintendo is not going to be okay with this. Sure selling more switches would be nice, but what about their software? Which is basically the number 1 money stream.
@NinjaSyao Actually there was a dual release of dr. mario and puzzle league on the GBA, it came out when the GB micro was released and had a weird feature where you could twist the screen 90 degrees to use your widescreen vertically. Also the game is featured in animal crossing new leaf if you find a 3ds ingame.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE I think you are in the minority here man, 2 seperate joy-con are fantastic to play several games with, sideways is not as good as a full set but I never disliked it for a fitting game like snipperclips. It's all about different configurations for different games. And sure, a pro controller is better than 2 joy-con in a grip. The directional buttons are hit and miss per game as well, puyo puyo tetris works perfect with those, but street fighter not so much.
@Zach777 I was not saying you were harassing anyone(the people on twitter do), but the joke just got old. Anyway, it looks like everybody will get what they want:
“We’ve definitely taken the feedback on board and will be changing the icon back with the next update which is due early next year. It’ll mean the branding isn’t unified but our focus is on our players and community so we’re OK with that.” -SUMO
@AcridSkull @Captain_Gonru I always liked the game on NES if you are playing coop. I am slightly interested in the arcade version although 8 bucks is a little much. Love the atari looks tho
@MariOnline I agree gameplay is the most important but still at least some enjoyment of a game depends on visuals/theme. I believe if Yooka-Laylee for example, was a true banjo 3 the game would have received much better scores.
@Zach777 Stop it, this is getting ridiculous. Of course it is nice to have a prettier icon but this is such a non-issue.
Edit: I went on Twitter recently and all I saw was people harassing Sumo about that icon. I just think it's a shame the focus on an actual good game is shifted to its icon.
The packaged versions of gold and silver are arriving today, I was thinking of leaving them sealed. If crystal is coming as well, I will get that to play because just like yellow I've never played crystal.
Looking back at all these positive comment from around launch time only reinforces that the current hate for this game is just everybody jumping on that internet hate bandwagon. This was the first metroid I completed 100% and I loved every minute of it.

Re: New Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Screens Show Off Dromarch, Who You Can Ride Through the World
Does anybody know if this has any connection tot part 1? I'm interested in this game but I don't want to play the first one before this one releases.

Re: Guide: Where To Find All The Upgrades In Metroid: Samus Returns
@Rei I think its a bit too good because it show the map layout as well. Just the blocks on the screen would be ok.
Re: Get Cap-tivated by This Extended Super Mario Odyssey Overview Trailer
Wow, no complaints about assist mode yet. (I like the possibility for the people that want to use it)
Re: Video: An Unboxing of the Super Famicom Classic Mini

Re: Review: Axiom Verge (Switch eShop)
This can't be a 10 for the music alone. Good game and very special that this is made by one person but I would give an 8.
Re: Feature: 20 Games That Aren't On The SNES Classic Mini, But Really Should Be
I agree with Chrono Trigger and the other two DKC games. Add Killer Instinct for a round 25.
Re: Dark Horse Reveals Zelda Encyclopedia as Final Instalment in Its Goddess Collection Book Series

Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good

@Bunkerneath Silly workcomputers
Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good
@SilentHunter382 Wow, never realised that those are the same. Haha case solved!
Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good
@SilentHunter382 Sorry, my last comment was a little unclear. I also grew up with a PAL SNES so I meant the x/y buttons of the american one.
Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good
@Bunkerneath He already had the picture in his post?
Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good
@SilentHunter382 Yeah the four-color controllers are awesome, although I'm curious how the concaved y and x buttons feel.
Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good
@MariOnline I expected the snes box to be slightly larger, this is just beautiful.
Re: Gallery: The North American SNES Classic Mini Is Boxy, But Good
The NA version is cool in its own way. I always thought the cartridges looked way more awesome than the PAL/Japanese ones.
Re: Sumo Digital Will Change the Snake Pass Logo on Switch in Its Next Update
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Thank you. I will act less pedantic next time. Good talk:)
Re: Sumo Digital Will Change the Snake Pass Logo on Switch in Its Next Update
@SLIGEACH_EIRE They already answered a lot of people on the initial complaints which means they do listen. Don't act entitled.

@McGruber Then thats what i'm doing wrong:p I liked the main campaign but all the grinding for all the other stuff is so much work.
Re: Video: Here's How The Switch And New 3DS Versions Of Fire Emblem Warriors Compare To Each Other
I still have to get back to Hyrule Warriors. How does one complete games as massive as these?

@MariOnline A character can also be part of your enjoyment of a game.

@AcridSkull Wasn't the atari version the worst version?

Re: Rumour: Data Miners Find Evidence of Pokémon Crystal in the Gold and Silver VC Releases
