I find it hard to believe that a game can cause anyone to become a "suicidal drug addict". I'm certain that there is way more to this than meets the eye.
Just gonna throw this out there, Anker products are the definition of the word legit. Best customer service I have ever had the pleasure to experience and that is saying a lot. With that being said, the price to the "officially licensed" battery pack is expensive. I bought the exact same size battery for almost half that price during one of Amazon's many, many sales throughout the year. I have used it on my Switch, and cell phones without any issues. If anyone is interested in the link, let me know.
Nintendo needs to get its act together when it comes to selling retro games. I should NOT have to purchase a SNES game for example, multiple times, across several Nintendo platforms. Nintendo should take a look at how Microsoft treats its consumer base, not Sony.
This is in response to the success of the NES and SNES classics. Raise your hand if you hacked them to play additional games. (raises hand high i the sky)
Honesty time. I saw this on the eshop and immediately dismissed it thinking that it was a Rock Band type game. Saw the trailer and it is an instant buy. Thanks Nintendo Life for setting me straight. Not sexually. You know what I mean.
I love a good (cheesy) fmv game. Is there actual gameplay footage of this? Also does anyone know if the detective is a male or female or can you shapeshift into another gender? Looks like there was some man on man action going on in one scene.
@NESlover85 I almost picked up a second dock for $60. If I remember correctly Google was giving a $30 discount if you used Google Checkout and Walmart just happened to be one of the retailers that was accepting that discount. No idea why I didn't grab one. And Robocop is an amazing film. Have you ever seen the unrated version?
Did Nintendo resolve the tick rate issue? I stopped playing because of it. Competitive online gaming sucks when what is happening on my TV is different than what the servers are registering. And no it's not my internet. It's a pretty big issue with the game that is well known on the internet. At least that's what Google has lead me to believe.
@NoxAeturnus I'm not concerned with file size since it is what is (not much you can do other than bug Nintendo to help with compression). I would be more concerned with how much they would have to sacrifice to get the game to run. Witcher 3 is one of the few games that felt alive due to how much was going on. BOTW is a great game but it's world pales in comparison to anything in Witcher 3.
I see a lot of Witcher 3 love. I doubt that will ever get ported to the Switch but that doesn't mean that I'm not curious to see what that would look like. It would have to take a significant hit in the graphics department.
Some games die for a reason. This one wears it proudly with poopy graphics. Virtua Racing on the Genesis looks amazing compared to this steaming pile of dog doo doo. Would love to see gameplay footage to see if I'm right.
I don't get all the praise surrounding this game. I enjoy a good JRPG as much as the next person but I gave this games demo a go and found the combat to be extremely boring. Maybe its just the demo.
I am ashamed to admit that I never played this game, even though I loved Flashback on the Genesis. With that being said, I will be picking up a copy on the switch. It's never too late in life to fix mistakes.
I have high hopes for an N64 classic release. I was never a big fan of the system (and yet I have two of them in my home???) however I was very impressed with the emulation of N64 games released on the Wii U so I say bring on a mini console Nintendo.
I can't wait for this mode to come back. My kids got into fortnite recently when their cousin came over to visit and now they pulled me in. The fact that I can fire up the came on three different platforms (Xbox One, Switch and PC) and play with both my girls, in the same room, is amazing to me. Reminds me of the old PC lan days. If only Sony would jump on board, my wife could play on the PS4 instead of her phone. Shame on you Sony. Shame!
I would murder for a Capcom x Nintendo game, made by Capcom, that pits Capcom and Nintendo characters against one another in Powerstone 2 like stages. MURDER!
The reason why it stands out and looks so bad is because of his legs. They are massive in comparison. You don't get legs like that in the gym and your ass not get a workout. It's like he decided to leave his ass at home on leg day.
I will give Fortnite a try this weekend. Never played it which I'm glad since I orginally downloaded the PS4 version. Heard the bad news about Sony not wanting to play nice with other and deleted it. I wish there was a way to limit the amount of players to just my family members. Would be neat to play with just my family, over the multiple devices we have in the home (Xbox One, Switch, PC desktops and laptops and android/iphone mobile/tablet devices).

Crossing Souls, Blossum Tales, Yoku's IE and Iconoclasts. So many games!

Re: Guide: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For August And September
@Draxa No prob! Those Anker powercores are amazing devices and work perfectly with the Switch.
Re: Review: Iconoclasts (Switch eShop)
Looks like I will have a busy weekend between this game and Crossing Souls.
Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd August (North America)
If you haven't tried Yoku's Island Express, you no longer have an excuse. Amazing game.

Instant buy!
Re: Guide: New Nintendo Switch Games Releasing In 2018
No pictures? Really? A list with zero pictures. Did I go back in time to the early 90's and come across an AOL forum?
Re: Review: The Super Spy (Switch eShop / Neo Geo)
This game looks so cool. So disappointed.

Re: The Next Johnny Turbo Game Is Shoot Out, Arrives At The Beginning Of August
This reminds of Elevator Action. Love that game. There was an awesome sequel on the Sega Saturn which I need to import.
Re: Enter The Gungeon's Free Expansion Is Now Live With Bucket Loads Of New Content
Highly recommend this game, even more at half off. The Switch is the perfect platform for a game like this.
Re: Game Freak Says Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu And Eevee May Be Forward Compatible
I just want to play an updated version of Pokemon Yellow. I pray that the Go aspects don't ruin the experience.

@Sabroni thanks for the laugh and the tip. Had know idea that there was an ignore button. Haha.
Re: Review: Adventure Time: Pirates of the Enchiridion (Switch)
Adventure Time (the cartoon) is extremely overrated.

I want Quake. That's right, the first game. 1080p @60 fps.

Looks like it was dropped to me.
Re: Review: Assault Gunners HD Edition (Switch eShop)
I take that back. Mobile game is Destroy Gunners. Looks very similar.
Re: Review: Assault Gunners HD Edition (Switch eShop)
I'm pretty certain this was a mobile game. I played this or something that looked exactly like this on an old HTC phone many years ago.

Re: Panic Button Is Porting Online Co-Op Hit Warframe To Nintendo Switch
Panic Button is on a role. I wonder if they are a publicly traded company. Seems to me like a wise investment.
Re: Fast-Paced Mech Battler Assault Gunners HD Edition Arrives On Switch This Week
I hate when people say this, HOWEVER, this really does look like an HD PS One game, or launch PS2 game. Specifically Armored Core.

Re: Nintendo Download: 28th June (North America)
I am shocked every week with the amount of releases for the Switch. So many games, not enough monies.
Re: Titan Quest Will Support Local Co-Op From Launch On Nintendo Switch
Depends on price. Isn't this game pretty old?
