@Galenmereth Maybe they're so used to working at 60fps that they didn't bother fixing the issue at 30. But they've acknowledged it and are looking into an eventual fix. Switch is kind of the problem for Fortnite. There are phones now running the game at 60. But they're a responsive developer and I have confidence it will be fixed eventually. I wish they'd let us take a graphical hit for fps performance like Rocket League does.
The only problem I have with the frame rate is that your gun's rate of fire is tied to the fps. So every person not on Switch can fire faster than you can, putting us at a disadvantage. I still get wins though.
I will confess that on launch day I bought only 1 game for Switch. It was Bomberman. I best the single player campaign the same day and didn't like the multiplayer control feel. I've now got maybe 15 total hours into it. Good luck, Konami.
I don't mind the intro but I think everyone should kiss and make up. Although perhaps criticism of the YouTube videos should be left in the comments for the videos or a private direct message.
@AlexOlney That was my feeling as well. I keep my Splatoon sensitivity set to maximum and Doom wasn't quite there but it's not bad for subtle aiming corrections.
To be honest I've noticed a higher percentage of clickbait headlines and stories that should be (but aren't) marked as rumors since the beginning of the year. Nothing to worry about I hope.
I have a theory that Nintendo took some money and signed a timed exclusivity deal with Hulu. That would explain everything. And the web browser is probably not accessible due to hacking exploits.
Compared to 2017, 2018 will be a slow year. They would run out of I.P. if they keep up this pace but I think it'll be a good year for 3rd parties who have had time to prepare their offerings.
I've been bored with the game. I'm around level 40 something. I just can't bring myself to keep doing the same busy work tasks for very little reward. It was OK for about a week.
I think they will do the bare minimum for $20 a year and maybe have a virtual console subscription service for a separate charge. I keep thinking they will add tiers to make more money but I don't expect the quality of their servers to improve.

Re: Epic Doesn't Plan To Improve The Frame Rate In The Switch Version Of Fortnite
@Galenmereth Epic has acknowledged the issue. Do a web search for Fortnite frame rate of fire.
Re: Epic Doesn't Plan To Improve The Frame Rate In The Switch Version Of Fortnite
@FTPinkRabbit From what I understand they see us at 60fps still. We just shoot slower and react slower.

I've been playing Gunman Clive on Switch all weekend. I previously had it for 3ds. The Switch version looks great and plays great.

The great lie.

Re: R.B.I. Baseball 18 Will Aim For The Bleachers On Switch This March
RBI 17 was a great game as long as you pay less than $10for it and dont mind it constantly crashing and freezing and sucking.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE We know Fe is confirmed. That's the EA game we've all wanted.
Re: Bloodstained's Latest Level Reveal Has A Very Far Eastern Feel To It
I want to like it but I have a feeling it's going to be less Sonic Mania and more Mighty No 9.
Re: Feature: Vote For Your 2017 Nintendo Life Game of the Year
Unpopular opinion but I think giving Mario Odyssey the same score as BOTW is an insult to BOTW. Odyssey is maybe a 7 or 8 in my opinion.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st December (North America)
Nintendo is really going to let people open up a Switch without YouTube or Netflix? I'm shocked.

Re: Feature: Ten Nintendo Switch Games That Are Perfect for Halloween
Botw has the spooky lost woods. And all kinds of monsters. But nothing is scarier than a dropped player in Splatoon 2 ranked mode.

Re: Zelda: Breath of the Wild's Champions' Ballad DLC is Still Due This Year
I like that they couldn't be bothered to change the info graphic in the video that still says dlc pack 2 coming summer of 2017.
Re: DOOM Will Be 720p When Docked, And Unsurprisingly There's No 'Motion' Aiming

Re: New Splatoon 2 Stages and Weaponry Confirmed in Nintendo Direct
I mean... Snapper Canal? You've outdone yourself this time Nintendo. No way people could make a joke about that.
Re: Splatoon 2 Version 1.3.0 Is Now Live
I'm glad I made it S+ before they nerfed the tri slosher. Tower control just won't be the same.
Re: GameStop Opens Pre-Orders on Samus Edition New Nintendo 3DS XL in the US
I've decided to stop pre-ordering. If Nintendo can't put something out on the shelves they must not want to sell it.

Re: Nintendo Reveals More Details About its Paid Online Service
Ewww, first?
But seriously we already have online Dr. Mario. I can't believe how rushed this system was that they can't even piece together some online services.
