Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Super Mario Update Arrives This March

Honestly I'm having a better time with pocket camp at this point, more events, items, clothing, easier and better interaction with friends etc etc. so much potential but not enough to do after setting up your island. My villagers say the same lines and there isn't enough interaction between us, I mean what was the point of me spending so much time getting the ones I wanted. Just how I feel.

Re: Poll: Should Nintendo Release A Digital-Only Switch?

PJ5

you can get money back when you sell your physical games which is especially essential when Nintendo games usually don't go down to the low prices of PS4 and Xbox one games. Plus nintendo put a laughable 32gb of storage in the switch so I don't see them putting anywhere near the standard 500gb+ in the digital only switch. That would mean the money I save on the console would be spent on memory cards instead so what's the point?

Re: Reminder: Today Is Bunny Day In Animal Crossing: New Horizons

PJ5

I had so many eggs and finished recipes by the time Bunny Day arrived that I only used a handful of eggs today to finish up and I will be selling the leftover egg stacks I have. I suppose this event lasted so long for those who are barely playing the game because 12 was overkill to get everything done for people who play on a regular basis.

Re: Former Nintendo Of America President Reggie Fils-Aimé Joins GameStop's Board Of Directors

I don’t want GameStop to go out of business but they have issues which are their own fault besides digital games. corporate absolutely must stop requiring employees to to bother customers to preorder, pay for a rewards membership, trade in a phone etc people don’t want that nonsense when they go shopping. also don’t charge the “new” price for a game if it’s the last opened display copy, which is what most of their “new” games in stock are which is another issue. Remodel the stores and make the stores look more professional instead of looking like a garage sale shop. I hope Reggie makes some good changes although i honestly can’t understand why he took the job.

@Project_Dolphin True, Nintendo needs to decide if they want to make a system that is just focused on Nintendo titles and is a family friendly console or if they want to make a system that plays Nintendo titles and all the current titles (shooters and all) that is for all ages. If they choose the former they will not sell as many consoles as Sony and Xbox and that's their choice, they won't be number 1. But lack of third party titles is what is making Nintendo fail, it's the reason the Wii U failed for the most part, if you go to a store the Wii U section is a little area of 90% Nintendo titles 10% third party surrounded by tons of Amiibos, the gimmick they started to make their money back from the failed Wii U.

@Project_Dolphin The Gamecube failed because of Nintendos poor marketing and not enough well rounded third party support. Many people and developers considered it a kid system, which Nintendos marketing didn't do much to disprove, so some mature games weren't ported to it, they went to the PS2 and Xbox. Many people wanted to play shooters which were on the rise during that time period, gta etc, not smash bros. It wasn't that the system had third party support and failed anyway, the third party support and marketing wasn't done right and I wouldn't call the third party support it had to be a high amount either. If you google why the Gamecube failed you will find many articles that basically say what I posted here. I like Nintendo, i want to see them do well but there have been so many times since the n64 that they have made such horrible decisions with their consoles and ruining some of their best titles by "trying something totally new" (paper mario, kirby and the rainbow curse etc) that i felt people who know nothing of business could run this company better.

@Project_Dolphin Can you imagine how well a Nintendo system would do if it could play the new third party titles AND Nintendo titles? You'll see a top release come out for the current and last gen consoles, but not for Wii U, more new games are being released for old gen systems than Wii U. Nintendo has had a horrible history with third party support on it's main consoles since the N64, the Wii should not have been a success, it was the same system Nintendo released years earlier, a gamecube with a motion controller but families and exercise buffs helped it become a success and it's a shame because it made Nintendo think what they did was a great idea.

I just want a normal controller, no motion control gimmicks and no gamepad to have to look down at and distract me from the game. I'd prefer Nintendo to put their money into the console hardware itself so their consoles are not always a pumped up version of the last gen consoles, which also makes it harder to get 3rd party support. Even the 3ds suffers from older graphics because the CPU needs to power the 3d, another gimmick Nintendo added. Call me old fashioned like the many owners of the xbox one and ps4 who are happy with a regular controller if you want. no gimmicks and better hardware please Nintendo.
