If this is considered as a bad scenario from Nintendo customer service then...? Back in the Wii U days I accidentally shipped a game with the console and they returned it with a nice note. Also the Wind Waker hold music is awesome, I'm not sure if they still do that.
My opinion is that is it way too earlier to release new switch versions and they should wait until the current switch loses momentum before releasing new ones.
I want to add that because YouTube is such a huge platform for gaming, companies will want to run their games on Stadia because of the new ability to click on the game from the YouTube video to instantly play the game or purchase it. This means that Nintendo would be at a loss because they can't take advantage of this feature. Maybe Nintendo's demographic would have to be more marketed towards older gamers that prefer the hardware at that point?
I actually do think this will impact Nintendo because Google just became the first company to fully tap into the cloud gaming market. Meaning if this is the future of gaming Nintendo would have to eventually follow suit and compete with Google's servers. But this is something to worry about probably much much much later. But for right now? It's not too big of a deal because it's not a massive market.
I really recommend this game, I've never played a game before like it where you have to intensely tap your screen. There's a lot of songs so there are usually a few that you will like. You can play it on a mobile phone but it's best played on a larger screen.
I'm really liking the hd rumble, I thought it was going to be a gimmick that might wear off over time but I really think that every controller should have it. It's neat how it produces sound too so it makes sense that Nintendo allows you to sync up the rumble with soundwaves, very interesting stuff.
I'm really excited for the future of Nintendo and gaming. I imagine Nintendo will continue to push the switch for years and make upgraded iterations like the 3ds. And at that point VR technology should be advanced enough to be mainstream and it would be very interesting to see what Nintendo could do with their characters. We've already seen VR Mario Kart
I just recently got the game and I love it! I was on the fence about it because I wasn't sure that I would like the art style, but it's actually surprisingly beautiful.
Hmm reminds me a lot of Fast Racing RMX and the combat aspect seems like a pretty cool idea, since I liked that game I should definitely consider this.
Hmm seeing a Kirby game with a detailed background so far in the distance is a pretty cool idea. Although I can see why they didn't include it probably due to it making Kirby too small on the tablet screen.
I'm not sure if Nintendo still pays game developers an "ordinary" salary like they used to or not but I think it's really interesting that they pay them to take time to get inspired. This might be one of the reasons for Nintendo's success because I really believe that successful games are made when the creator(s) are really enjoying what they are working on. And more money doesn't always make the job more exciting.
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.
