Old-Red

I'm finally going to get round to finishing Samus Returns and start the 3rd campaign on Fire Emblem Fates. Not to mention I've still got stuff to do in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Odyssey. How people don't have something to enjoy seems bizarre to me, I play games a lot and I've manage to build up a backlog without even trying. I'm actually quite pleased there hasn't been anything big since December. It's a shame Kirby is so average, the metro review making a case for him being a super villian that goes round destroying everything in his path did make me laugh though.

Why didn't they include a usb connector? If I could use this with switch, pc and ps3 I'd definitely be tempted, but even as a collector of snes games I would never consider this at that price. Still, it's a really beautiful piece of kit.

This, plus the fact that all the indie games are old enough to have the whole game with all dlc and patches included. I think this is why the physical copies of indie games are doing so well on the switch. Collectors like to know that they can play their games down the line (the ones who open the boxes anyway) and indies provide this. Add in the factor of limited numbers released and it's a collector's wet dream.

"I'm living in Italy, I bet UK/other continental EU country shipping will be a tad less."

£31.98 in the UK with all the sneaky extras. As soon as Bioshock devs were mentioned I had to get it though. I missed this one and I'm now really looking forward to playing it.

"This is where the lack of analogue triggers becomes a problem."

They can always use the right analog stick if needed.

@RusevDay
I was going to mention this. This article should just be a link to his video really. His point about news media footage being too shocking to show on his channel was pretty upsetting considering it had to stop before showing the worst of it.

I'm actually quite looking forward to playing this as a buggy mess when I can find it for a few quid in a bargain bin somewhere. I won't even bother updating, it should make for quite an amusing experience.

I feel like there should be some kind of new quality control seal of approval set up a bit like the ESRB. A game can only put the stamp on it's box or digital icon if it passed quality control from a fan made collective. This would put a lot more pressure on game publishers to allow time for the Devs to properly finish their games before release. At the least it would speed up the efforts put into bringing out a patch to fix problems or performance.

You don't seem to understand the points I'm making. I can see that you're passionate about this subject though and we're clearly not going to solve this issue on a Nintendo website. I could try to explain my thinking in more detail, but I think it's better for us to agree to disagree. Thanks for offering your point of view.

@Gauchorino
Your conveniently ignoring the fact that a teenager can't walk into a school with a video game, point it a large number of people and instantly end their lives. It's not about who or what is responsible, it's about giving mentally unstable people the access to a tool that can easily kill large numbers of people in a short space of time.

"CDC statistic show that 500,000-3 million people saved is staggering in comparison to the 14,000-33,000 killed by firearms, take away suicides and the number of deaths decrease from 33,000 to around 14,000.
And that is an unbiased source"

Again, saved from what? This could easily be cherry picked statistics that don't factor in the need for the 'saving' if widespread access to firearms wasn't a factor. Not to mention what they consider a life saved is when it hasn't been taken in the first place. Plus the fact that authorities would still have access to guns in serious circumstances like in other countries.

@Gauchorino
"Meaning, even if you only accept the most conservative estimate from above, it is an objective fact that legal gun owners save exponentially more lives than the crimes legal or illegal gun owners cause."

From what? Other people with guns?

It's really quite tiring and pathetic that this topic is even given the attention and article space it is when the whole farce is sketching around the fact that the arms industry and NRA are responsible for making guns available to pretty much anyone in America. Australia has shown quite clearly that gun crime and school shootings can be eradicated pretty much over night through a gun ban. This is about money, corruption and back handers, pure and simple. The only way I can see this going away is if the entertainment industry was to get together and offer the powers that be more money and support than the arms industry does. Problem solved, not going to happen though is it. What would be refreshing would be for the U.S government to turn round and say "Look, we're really sorry, but we make far too much money from this industry. Unfortunately that means that some of you and your kids are going to have to die because of it." Followed by a classy Trump shrug.

I'm sorry, but for that kind of money I'd want it to be compatible with... EVERYTHING!
