Looks like another half baked mobile game. People are having fun though but I just hope this isn't the route we'll see Nintendo going. I imagine it will die out like Angry Birds.
This was the last true console in the traditional sense. I wouldn't mind it at all of Nintendo brought out an offline, cartridge based, beefed up console.
Not a fan of tree house broadcasts. Sure you get to see the game in action but they feel they have to fill every moment with discussion with goes on for far too long. I had to have most of it on mute for this very reason.
I just wish they optimized it to run at a better frame rate. Dreamland and Dreamland 2 were visually more complex and still ran silky smooth. Mario Land 2 crawls when more than 3 sprites are on the screen.
They booked the floor space a year+ ago. Back then the NX was probably expected to be announced at this E3. They can't take back the space they booked.
This tells me two things: NX isn't a heavy hitter like the ps4 and/or they really do have zero software to offer us. Nintendo needs more time to create their launch titles since 3rd party might not be there (yet?).

Re: Feature: What Are Your Thoughts, So Far, on Pokémon GO?
Looks like another half baked mobile game. People are having fun though but I just hope this isn't the route we'll see Nintendo going. I imagine it will die out like Angry Birds.
Re: Someone Has Actually Made A Game Which Works On The SNES PlayStation
Talking about flash carts on my Nintendo Life? It's more likely than you think.
Re: Someone At Nintendo Expected The Wii U To Shift 100 Million Units
Their announcement of the Wii U was the worst. No one knew what it was even months after. That probably didn't help lower expectations.
In the end, the games sold the system, despite Nintendo lol.
Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Thinks You Should Give Star Fox Zero Another Try
His stubbornness to force motion control on us is the most annoying thing Nintendo is doing right now.
Re: Super Mario RPG Hits the North American Wii U VC for This Week's Update
The only Mario RPG worth talking about. I'm just annoyed with Nintendo on the delay of releasing this on the VC in North America.
Re: Editorial: An Ode To The Wii U GamePad, Nintendo's Mad But Brilliant Controller
@Tsurii also it has the best shoulder buttons in the industry. I'm sick of analog shoulder buttons.

Re: Talking Point: Where Does The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Fit Into the Zelda Timeline?
To answer the headline: It shouldn't fall into any time line. The timeline was made up for the fans who asked for one.
Re: E3 2016: Brandwatch Declares The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild as the Winner of E3
Let me preface by saying I don't even own a Sony console.
God of War and Horizon impressed me more than what I saw out of Zelda. Zelda looks amazing for a Zelda game but only on that scale alone.

Blah blah blah Mother 3 blah blah blah.
Get over this series people.
Re: Japan Has Voted For Its Favourite Pokémon, And It's Not Pikachu
Greninja is way more predictable than Pikachu. So they picked their favorite Pokemon based on a stats sheet. Zzzz
Re: Hardware Classics: Game Boy Pocket
Best handheld. 10+ hours of battery life on 2 AAAs. Amazing games.
Just make sure you have some good lighting

Ready for the snooze fest.
Re: Chrono Trigger Director Would Love To Create A New "High End" Version Of The Game
Just get the band back together and make a killer 16bit era sequel. (No not Chrono Cross)
Re: This Freshly Translated Interview Sheds New Light on the Development of Super Mario Land 2
I just wish they optimized it to run at a better frame rate. Dreamland and Dreamland 2 were visually more complex and still ran silky smooth. Mario Land 2 crawls when more than 3 sprites are on the screen.
Re: Nintendo Sure Has Booked A Lot Of Floor Space For E3 2016
They booked the floor space a year+ ago. Back then the NX was probably expected to be announced at this E3. They can't take back the space they booked.
Re: Hong Kong Pokémon Fans Protest Over New Translation Issues with Sun and Moon

Re: Nintendo Life Weekly: Latest Mighty No. 9 Trailer Slated by Officials
They should have never announced the game until now.
Re: Sonic Runners, SEGA's Mobile Release by the Sonic Team, is Getting Shut Down
"but the shutdown in July will seemingly make it completely unplayable"
Screw any company that does this.
Re: Nintendo Publishes Part Two of the Miyamoto and Hayashi Star Fox Zero Interview
His obsession with "innovative" controls really got in the way of the game being good.
Re: My Nintendo Discount Applied to Miitomo Drop Game Tickets Reward
The only way to win this game is to not play.

Re: Star Fox Zero And Bravely Second Make NPD's April Best Sellers List
They sold because what else are Nintendo fans going to buy for the rest of the year? They win by default.
Re: Reaction: The NX Could Benefit from Using Cartridges Instead of Discs
I'm not holding my breath but I would love instant access ROM chip carts on the NX. It's about the only thing that would get me excited for it.
Re: Soapbox: Game Reviews Always Need a Final Score
Horrible system to judge a game. Find a reviewer that has similar taste in your style of games and see if they like said game(s).
For example scores mean nothing when a CoD fanboi, who got a job writing reviews, hates on games like Splatoon.
Re: Review: Pokémon Yellow Version: Special Pikachu Edition (3DS eShop / GBC)
Dasit mane.
Re: Launching NX Next Year Is The "Proper" Thing To Do, Says Nintendo Boss Tatsumi Kimishima
This tells me two things: NX isn't a heavy hitter like the ps4 and/or they really do have zero software to offer us. Nintendo needs more time to create their launch titles since 3rd party might not be there (yet?).
