Re: Feature: 13 Hidden Gems You Might Have Missed On The Switch eShop

I either don't recognize or wouldn't recommend the vast majority of these titles except for Full Metal Furries. Do not let the name deceive you. It's not about Furries. It's about a rag tag group of female bad@sses. The game has great dialogue, fantastic pixel art, a beautiful soundtrack and it is a blast to play on the couch with family and/or friends. The difficulty can get hard at times but it never feels cheap and the sense of accomplishment you feel when overcoming a difficult level or boss is second to none. Highly recommend if you are remotely interested in action games that require skill, strategy and teamwork.

Re: Feature: Forget Sonic, These Are the 10 Worst Video Game Movies Ever

I will defend Dead or Alive and even Street Fighter (especially SF in Spanish, don't know why but it's better in Spanish). Both are over the top cheesey movies but what else would you expect from a movie based on a fighting game. Furthermore, how can you not enjoy Street Fighter which gave us a coked out of his mind JCVD playing Guile and Raul Julia's (RIP) amazing portrayal of Bison. I guess Nintendo Life never watched Far Cry or any of the Blood Rayne movies.

Re: Talking Point: Not Appealing To Gamers First Is A Dangerous Strategy For The Sonic Movie

Someone at Sega must have approved this hideous thing being labeled as Sonic and that person should be fired immediately. Everything about this abomination is just wrong and reminds me of the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog (the one Urkel voiced). At least that one resembled Sonic. This seems to take that design to an extreme. They copied the blue legs just like in the cartoon and said "Cover him entirely in fur. Sonic will show NO skin." And then they stole his gloves because why not. I'm surprised they gave him red sneakers.

Waiting for more reviews. This one seems off the mark. I agree with others here who said they were surprised by the 6 after reading the review. I was expecting an 8 since the only negative things said was the game doesn't hold your hand or explain how some tasks affect your character. Sounds to me like someone doesn't enjoy games like River City Ransom, Shenmue and Persona which is fine but those games are all gems in my eyes.

Re: Nintendo Download: 11th April (North America)

@Itzdmo Well my comment regarding the quality of games was in reference to the Switch's overall library of games not just this specific week. Now the amount of games being released on the other hand, well as you can see week after week, Nintendo has been allowing a lot of games to be released on their system which I think is a good thing. I can separate the winners from the stinkers by using a piece of plastic that magically spits out money.

Re: Nintendo And Sony Shares Drop Following Google's Stadia Reveal

I can only speak on what I know and I can say this with the utmost confidence, a gaming platform based on streaming games, with zero hardware aka a physical console, will not work in America. Maybe in other parts of the world with better and more stable internet connections, places where ISP'S don't throttle their customers and give them data caps but not here folks. Not anytime soon. ISP's in America are trying their hardest to buy politicians off in hopes that one day a bill can be passed that allows these companies to treat the internet as a utility such as water and electricity. It will be a dark day in America if that ever happens.
