Even the Wii U version is amazing. The load times are fast and the graphics are identical in most cases. I've heard the sound effects are the biggest difference.
While the idea of aliens is bizarre in a Zelda game, the guardians are kind of like aliens if you think about it. And the Sheikah tablet is also futuristic, so that must have came from the idea of modern stuff for Link like a motorcycle. Neat stuff!
Just reserved Nintendo_Ninja since I prefer it over my old Nintendo network name. I'm glad we get to pick names before it comes out so I don't have to be Nintendo_Ninja125685 or something.
This is awesome! In the year that the Switch launches its hard to believe that the 3DS would be getting so much support (DQ 8, FE Echoes, etc). I'm hoping these aren't download only but if they are I won't complain.
I'm glad they aren't merging teams since it allows the 2 styles of Zelda to stay independent while still producing both styles at once. Now if only they copied this structure with Metroid...
2 weeks a month sounds great. There is nothing that makes me uninstall a game faster than no developer support. FE Heroes is a solid and simple foundation and more updates will only make it better.
I think this score is 1 point too low. The connectivity is lag free and for a very quick and simple mobile game it has some depth to it. The graphics aren't anything to go crazy over, but it's a solid package that will get better with updates.
Well I mean anyone could have told you that the Switch was getting a FE game but hey, at least we know it exists. Because it's so vague and it has a 2018 release date I think it could get pushed back but that's not a big deal.
This sounds great! It's like a reimagined version of the FE game we never got and it looks very interesting. Dungeons in a Fire Emblem game just sounds cool.

Re: Site News: Nintendo Life is Red, Nintendo Life was Blue
I usually prefer blue but the red (especially with the NL logo) is way cooler looking. Now if only this site could have fan published blogs...

Re: Review: Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns (3DS)
I'll probably pick this up sometime since it looks better than the first SOS game.
Re: XSeed Announces Story of Seasons DLC Localization Plans for the West
I passed on the first game but I might get this one since it looks better than the current Harvest Moon game.
Re: Mega Man Legacy Devs Working On New Collection With Capcom
Legacy collection is pretty great (6 games in 1). Maybe it's a SF or RE collection?
Re: E3 2017 Floor Plans Show Another Sizeable Nintendo Booth
A big E3 could seal a successful 1st year for the Switch.
Re: Harvest Moon 64 Heading to Wii U in North America This Week as Part of Anniversary Celebrations
@gcunit
Animal Parade is a great choice too. It's a good entry point.
Re: Harvest Moon 64 Heading to Wii U in North America This Week as Part of Anniversary Celebrations
Harvest Moon is a great franchise and I hope we get one on the Switch. Its a shame the Wii U never got one.
Re: Pokémon + Mega Bloks Is A Thing That Is Happening, And We're Totally Cool With That
They don't look too bad but I would prefer Lego more than mega blocks.
Re: It's Time to Claim Your Nintendo Account User ID for Nintendo Switch
Just reserved Nintendo_Ninja since I prefer it over my old Nintendo network name. I'm glad we get to pick names before it comes out so I don't have to be Nintendo_Ninja125685 or something.
Re: Eiji Aonuma & Shigeru Miyamoto Discuss Legend of Zelda Fan Feedback
Sometimes fans know what they want and sometimes they don't. It's good that they considered what the fans wanted.
Re: RPG Maker Fes and Culdcept Revolt Set for Summer Arrivals on 3DS
This is awesome! In the year that the Switch launches its hard to believe that the 3DS would be getting so much support (DQ 8, FE Echoes, etc). I'm hoping these aren't download only but if they are I won't complain.
Re: Video: Nintendo Switch User Interface Shown Off In Leaked Footage
Sleek and simple. I like the profile changes. Also the Switch is going to have themes based on that settings option.
Re: New Pokémon Game Announced For Smartphones, With Magikarp As The Star
What a weird concept. It will probably end up being fun though.
Re: Eiji Aonuma Wants an 'Evolved 2D Style' From His Legend of Zelda Handheld Dev Team
I'm glad they aren't merging teams since it allows the 2 styles of Zelda to stay independent while still producing both styles at once. Now if only they copied this structure with Metroid...
Re: Brace Yourself, The Biggest Pokémon GO Update Yet Is Coming This Week
Finally! If only it wasn't so cold...
Re: Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker 3 Professional Makes Number One Debut in Japan
It won't happen but wow I want this localized.
Re: Video: Ultra Street Fighter II's First Person Mode Looks Like A Throwback To Wonky Motion Controls
Noooooooope
Re: Amazon UK Offers Nintendo Switch Downloads, Cost More Than Boxed Equivalents
Having the security of always owning the game and not having to fill up my hard drive are the biggest reasons to go physical. This is another reason.
Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Voting Event Crowns Its Champions
I voted Lucina so I'm happy. Good picks.
Re: There Won't Be a New Skylanders Game in 2017
I think this is a sign that they have moved on.
Re: BoxBoy! Retail Collection Hits Top 10 in Japan as Evergreen Titles Lead the Way
If they localize that I'll buy it for sure.
Re: Get Loved Up With The Pokémon GO Valentine's Event
Decent event but unless they plan on adding in every Pokémon from gen 2-7 at once then what's the holdup?
Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Retweet Campaign Hits Target for Hero Feathers Giveaway
I hope they keep doing these, it makes the F2P stuff easier to handle.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Secures Gorgeous Cover on Game Informer Magazine
@Ryu_Niiyama
Same lol
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Secures Gorgeous Cover on Game Informer Magazine
Game Informer's best covers are always the Nintendo ones (see Skyward Sword).
Re: Nintendo Plans To Continuously Update Fire Emblem Heroes With New Stories, Modes and Characters
2 weeks a month sounds great. There is nothing that makes me uninstall a game faster than no developer support. FE Heroes is a solid and simple foundation and more updates will only make it better.
Re: Guide: Starting the Battle in Fire Emblem Heroes
I got Marth on my 3rd summon (it was free). It's a simple game but for some quick mobile fun it's not too bad.
Re: Nintendo Has Finally Pulled The Plug On Project Giant Robot
It will end up being used in the future just like a lot of scrapped Nintendo projects.
Re: Capcom Admits Monster Hunter Stories Performed Below Expectations
It looked like a weird spinoff anyways, so at least they won't try to milk the franchise with spinoffs.
Re: Video: Nintendo Pushes The Social Play Angle With Switch Super Bowl Commercial
This is a great idea especially since it's coming out like a month after the Super Bowl happens.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing Range for Switch Online Service
$30 isn't bad, I just wish we didn't have to pay in general.
Re: New My Nintendo Rewards Try to Show The Love for Valentine's Day
All discounts no games. People love to complain about Club Nintendo's final years, but at least it was better than this disappointment.
Re: Review: Pokémon Duel (Mobile)
I think this score is 1 point too low. The connectivity is lag free and for a very quick and simple mobile game it has some depth to it. The graphics aren't anything to go crazy over, but it's a solid package that will get better with updates.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Releasing New Super Mario Bros. On The Nvidia Shield In China
It's a huge market that they need to take advantage of, China has a ton of potential customers. Making money on 10 year old games is a good idea too.
Re: Pokkén Tournament and ARMS in the Running for Evo 2017 Player's Choice Spot
Hopefully Pokken can win, it's really fun to watch.
Re: Nintendo Sponsors Nickelodeon's 2017 Kids' Choice Awards, Hosted by John Cena
Good marketing at least.
Re: Pokémon Duel Arrives on iOS and Android in the West
Cool! I still play Pokémon shuffle and since this is an arcade port it's technically not a mobile game. I'll give it a try.
Re: Poll: A Week On, How Do You Feel About the Nintendo Switch?
I'm not buying it on launch day so I didn't preorder it but it has some positives.
Re: Video: Koei Tecmo Launches Trailers For Its Two Big Nintendo Switch Releases
Can we get these in the west? I know the Switch is region free but I don't speak Japanese...
Re: 1-2-Switch Looks Set To Include At Least 20 Minigames
This game will be a collectors item soon since it won't sell that well.
Re: Super Bomberman R's Retail Price Has Finally Been Confirmed
I was already on the fence on this one, and this price didn't make me more likely to buy it.
Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Revealed for Mobile, Arrives on Android on 2nd February
I just hope there is no paywall. It reminds me of Pokémon Shuffle, which is a fun mobile title.
Re: New Main Series Fire Emblem Title Coming to Nintendo Switch in 2018
Well I mean anyone could have told you that the Switch was getting a FE game but hey, at least we know it exists. Because it's so vague and it has a 2018 release date I think it could get pushed back but that's not a big deal.
Re: Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia Coming to 3DS on 19th May
This sounds great! It's like a reimagined version of the FE game we never got and it looks very interesting. Dungeons in a Fire Emblem game just sounds cool.
Re: Nintendo Switch Memory Can Be Expanded Up To 2TB
Nintendo needs to get into the the SD card business because these cards will be more expensive than the console.
Re: Nintendo Switch Lacks Pack-In Title Because It's $299, Says Reggie Fils-Aime
If they sell a single copy of 1 2 Switch it will be a miracle.
Re: By The Way, The Joy-Con Grip Bundled With Nintendo Switch Won't Charge Your Joy-Cons
Does the pro controller come with a charger? These things were already overpriced.
Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Briefly Addresses Topic Of Carrying Over Online Purchases To Switch
I won't be buying VC games ever again if I can't transfer them. I would even pay a transfer fee like on Wii U.
