I don't think Nintendo really planned on having a pre-order for the online subscription. I think Amazon just wants more attraction to their website. ( That and I bet NintendoLife gets a little pay for mentioning Amazon of course, not hating just saying )
I wonder if seeing the stocks drop has caused Nintendo to feel the need to show off more new game releases earlier. That and maybe the reactions to E3.
Hmm... I never understood the appeal of projectors. I have yet to see one that doesn't have discoloration or looks all fuzzy when you look closely at the screen.
I still have rare connection issues with my Joycon but only when it's really far away. I'm surprised that to fix the manufacturing error they have to redesign the insides, I thought it could be a simple fix.
I like the concept, I like how the track changes colors because perhaps that would mean that there is more skill to the game other than memorizing the track shortcuts.
Well that's good news, I mostly play the game in handheld mode because the quality on the tv is a bit blurry, so I'll definitely try out the 30fps option to see if it makes a difference.
Just to let you guys know, they thought that not adding Mario to Wreck it Ralph was a missed opportunity and they said that if they made a Wreck it Ralph 2 then they would probably add him so it's very possible that it will happen.
Here's the thing though, I bet you Nintendo wanted this leak to happen. It's an easy way to get news spread across the internet about it, I'm pretty sure them hosting an unboxing video like they did with the Wii U wouldn't be nearly as effective.
Honestly the more apps the better for sure. It should literally have everything possible: twitch, netflix, hulu, youtube—there's no reason not to and I want more reasons to use the switch instead of my phone not less.
I think the reason why Japanese fits this game so well is because it feels designed to be like an anime. Also the voice acting is seemingly way better from what I've heard so far.
Fire Emblem Warriors is a nice idea, although I'm not too sure, I feel like the Legend of Zelda and Skyrim already fills that "open exploration combat" void. But yeah I'm hoping good things for the presentation.
I just gotta say the concept behind this game is not worth 50 dollars when you think about it. Imagine playing something like Quick Draw with a stopwatch and a 3rd person. That's kinda how easy it is to recreate these games without paying for the game which is why I'm having a hard time seeing it being sold well. I'd rather save that money to buy any other game on the console, although it would be nice have some pack in game to start with the console.
Woah that translator was more far off than I thought. It must be hard to be able to translate with the pressure and in real time so maybe it's understandable but yeah oh well at least we know the real translation now.
I think this exists because of how useful the 3ds wifi switch was. But it still has me wondering cause if that's the case then why wouldn't they just have a wifi on/off setting instead of airplane mode. It's also strange how much they seemingly want people to play the switch in airplanes lol.
@gaga64 @Lenzo Well that's good then. Still though, take Paper Mario for example, since Miyamoto helped make the new sequels it has become much different, I'm sure he probably helped make it better but at the same time he completely changed what I want Paper Mario games to be like. Edit: But not to say it's a totally a bad thing just different, some people really like the new style.
I wouldn't worry too much about the lineup of games, lineups seem to me like they are really hard to plan out. We know for a fact that games are coming on the way and that's what's important. Only problem I see is for the consumer who doesn't like Nintendo having a hard time wanting to get the system. But I think the more people that have a Switch the more popular it will become.
I bet they have a plan and are just waiting to explain the details. I was worried at first but since MK8 only has the same courses as the Wii U version I bet they are going to offer it as a discount cause there's no way that they wouldn't, no one's gonna want to pay a full 60 dollars again unless they are major Mario Kart enthusiasts.

Re: Pre-Orders For Nintendo Switch Online Subscriptions Go Live On Amazon
I don't think Nintendo really planned on having a pre-order for the online subscription. I think Amazon just wants more attraction to their website. ( That and I bet NintendoLife gets a little pay for mentioning Amazon of course, not hating just saying )
Re: Talking Point: Should Nintendo Keep Releasing DLC For Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?
No thanks, more dlc would delay the development of a new game which could be better.

Good picks! I really want to get Thumper but I want to save my money for new games right around the corner!
Re: No, Axiom Verge Isn't Actually Confirmed for Nintendo Switch
It seems Nintendo is being a bit picky when it comes to choosing games to put on their system. It's hard to say whether this is a good or bad thing.
Re: Wreck-It Ralph 2 Gets a New Name and a Release Date
Just to let you guys know, they thought that not adding Mario to Wreck it Ralph was a missed opportunity and they said that if they made a Wreck it Ralph 2 then they would probably add him so it's very possible that it will happen.

Re: Talking Point: Lack of Nintendo Switch Details Close to Launch Made Wobbly Cam 'Leaks' Inevitable
Here's the thing though, I bet you Nintendo wanted this leak to happen. It's an easy way to get news spread across the internet about it, I'm pretty sure them hosting an unboxing video like they did with the Wii U wouldn't be nearly as effective.
Re: Rare Veteran David Wise is Producing the Soundtrack for Switch Title Snake Pass
Okay, I didn't care too much about the game before, now I do!
Re: Poll: Does Nintendo Switch Need Streaming Apps and a Web Browser, Or Is It All About Games?
Honestly the more apps the better for sure. It should literally have everything possible: twitch, netflix, hulu, youtube—there's no reason not to and I want more reasons to use the switch instead of my phone not less.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing Range for Switch Online Service
I'm so relieved! Now buying Splatoon 2 will be actually worth it!
Re: Eiji Aonuma Confirms that Breath of the Wild Will Not Support a Japanese Dub Over English Subtitles
I think the reason why Japanese fits this game so well is because it feels designed to be like an anime. Also the voice acting is seemingly way better from what I've heard so far.
Re: Video: Let's See How Poochy & Yoshi's Woolly World's Graphics Stand Up Compared to its Wii U Counterpart
I gotta admit, those visuals are very impressive for a low-res port and very clean, it's like the wii u version except with a blur filter.
Re: Talking Point: What We Hope to See in the Fire Emblem Nintendo Direct
Fire Emblem Warriors is a nice idea, although I'm not too sure, I feel like the Legend of Zelda and Skyrim already fills that "open exploration combat" void. But yeah I'm hoping good things for the presentation.
Re: First Impressions: 1-2-Switch is an Ideal Pack-In Game That's Missing Its Chance
I just gotta say the concept behind this game is not worth 50 dollars when you think about it. Imagine playing something like Quick Draw with a stopwatch and a 3rd person.

Re: Airplane Mode Symbol Spotted In Nintendo Switch UI, Sets Tongues Wagging
I think this exists because of how useful the 3ds wifi switch was. But it still has me wondering cause if that's the case then why wouldn't they just have a wifi on/off setting instead of airplane mode. It's also strange how much they seemingly want people to play the switch in airplanes lol.

Re: Video: How Shigeru Miyamoto Designs a Game
@AlphaJaguar Unfortunately yeah. I think it might be cool to see other people play around with new game ideas using his characters.

Re: Nintendo Switch Will Be Easier To Find Than The NES Classic At Launch, Says Reggie Fils-Aime
I like how he addresses the point. It's nice knowing that I think they might be able to fix their stock problem.
Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Briefly Addresses Topic Of Carrying Over Online Purchases To Switch

Have they gone too far?
Re: Review: Metroid Prime: Blast Ball (3DS)
This really isn't that bad, I feel like the only reason why it's rated so low is to be on par with the opinions of others.
