I loved Patapon, but the singing in this game is unfortunately a bit annoying. Also the screen is way too busy and you barely see what's going on.
I hope they're able to polish the game into something better than this trailer shows.

Clearly Sony was irritated by the far superior game presented by its rival and forced it to be taken down. It's shameful to what lengths a company can go to shut down its competitors.

@darkswabber I was being sarcastic. Mortal Kombat is known for its large roster and I think it's wholly unnecessary to add characters from other franchises. Especially ones that clearly don't match.

I'm one of the heathens that prefers the DS remake.
Jokes aside, I like the characters a lot and I think the remake added depth to them, but of course the pixel graphics stood the test of time better.

On a side note I defeated the last boss with Kain alone using Jump after everyone else was killed. One of the best gaming memories I have.

Mortal Kombat has such a small roster that it definitely needs characters from other franchises to enrich it.

I know that some people loved the game like me and some didn't, which is understandable.
What I don't understand is people who played over one hundred hours of the game and then say: "It sucks, I hated it!". If you hated it so much why did you invest so much time in it? There's no need to play this game for 100 hours to see what's it like. By hour 10 or even earlier it's clear to see what the game is going for and if it's worth your time or not.

That is an amazing idea and it'll make a lot of people's lives much easier. It's really nice to see that accessibility is something in the spotlight recently. A lot of people being included in a way that couldn't have happened a few years ago.

Rule number one of the minus world:

You do NOT talk about the minus world.

@NintendoByNature If you find it too overwhelming it might be easier to start with one of the Souls games. None of them are open world so it makes it easier to find where you need to go without any guidance.
If you have a PS3 or PS5 I suggest you to start to Demon's Souls. It's shorter, divided in levels and generally easier than the other games. It's perfect to dip your feet in the water without being put off by the difficulty of the series.

Your subheading reads "Annual report also reveals gender pay gap in Japan".
Then during your article it's clearly stated that the salaries are according to experience and time working for the company.
You wanted the outrage clicks, didn't you?

More likely than not we're not getting a Switch successor until 2025. It's still selling too strong to justify a replacement. Of course a new Zelda definitely help boost these sales by a lot.

To anyone asking, in some areas the game dips below 20 FPS and it chugs like hell.
There's a good game there but it's buried beneath of host of unfixed technical issues.

Like most here I prefer Sub-Zero but Scorpion is the obvious commercial choice.

@ComfyAko I understand the feeling, but considering most AAA nowadays are open world sandbox games with loads of repetitive areas and repetitive collectibles, FFXVI does not fit this profile.
It's more linear and story focused with not much in the way of optional pointless content.

Fix the goddamn main game. Then I'll play the DLC.

@Arawn93 It's really nice of Bethesda to be so open to the modding community, but they basically used it as a crutch to not actually fix their own game.

Considering how little they've done to fix the thousand of bugs in the re-releases, completely undeserved.

The modding community carried this game on their backs.

The trailer didn't sell me at all on the game. But there's still a lot to be seem gameplay wise. If the other trailers focus on showing gameplay and it's solid, it could be interesting.

BotW had the same issue 90% of open world games have, huge map and not that much to do.

TotK fixed that beautifully. Everywhere I went I could find people and quests, I progressed through the game very organically because the many quests led me to exploring new areas and finding even more quests.

Nothing is as scary as Ikana Canyon in Majora's Mask. The theme still haunts me to this day.

@sixrings It's almost like Zelda is a Nintendo game! How dare Nintendolife report on a Nintendo related event!

@johnvboy Totally fair. My first comment carried some of my frustration with this game but you're totally in your right to enjoy it.

If you think it should be celebratee it's completely fair and I wouldn't want to take that from you.

@johnvboy I do agree with the last part, they're very flawed but definitely not unplayable.

The first part I feel differently though. Both Zelda games are 1080p and 30fps and I'm quite happy because they play smoothly with very few issues.

This game is by far the worst running game in the series and it's the first one that actually bothered me as I played. It slowed down quite frequently and the pop in made it quite difficult to search for Pokémon.

I think you oversimplified a bit by just putting people in a group of satisfied customers and overly critical ones. I'm one who enjoyed the games in the series but thinks that the fact that they're releasing one game almost every year is clearly hindering the quality of the overall products.

They're releasing more and games and more frequently in a strict timeline to match with the release of adjacent products, and it's definitely not because they love the fanbase, it's because of how much money the franchise makes for Nintendo.

@johnvboy It's thanks to an attitude like that they keep getting away with mediocre products. Pokémon survives a lot on brand recognition and very little on quality.

But yeah, roll on with the next games! I'm guessing the next is going to be the first game in the series with single digit FPS.

She looks like a character from a Zelda game. She's well designed and that's it, absolutely nothing outstanding.
Some people are a bit desperate to name any new character their "waifus" aren't they?

I think Miyamoto and a lot of people overestimate the relevance of critics. I know a good number of people that went to see the movie and most of them didn't even know that it got bad reviews.
It did well because it's an animation with Mario. Everybody knows Mario and most families like animated movies.

@SonOfDracula Great introduction to the series! Also very similar to mine, my parents got me IV as a gift and my friend had VI.

@Toads-Friend I love Nintendo games, I have been them since I was a child and I understand why some people enjoyed the movie but I didn't. It was well animated but it was too frantic, not well paced and I don't think the voice actors did a great job in giving personality to the characters.

So now you know someone who likes Nintendo that wasn't a big fan of the movie.

@Bret *People with bad taste.

An illumination movie with middling quality? I'm shocked!

I clapped! I clapped when I saw the Millennium Falcon!

It looks very mediocre.
How WB hasn't approached a studio to make a proper LoTR RPG yet is beyond me.

Gotta buy em all?

@JONOFTHEJONS I agree. That's why their next console needs a more powerful processor.

Just create a Switch with 4K and 60fps and everyone's gonna be happy. Easy money.

@VoidofLight Yeah, I can see how that would be disappointing. Thanks for the info!

@VoidofLight I've been curious about this game for quite a while but I still haven't bitten the bullet. If you don't mind elaborating, what's wrong with it?

@Olmectron Oh, my bad. I misunderstood you. With that I agree with you.

Now back to my previous point, let me use cars as a parallel. What is more expensive, a Prius or a Ferrari? A Ferrari, of course. Even if we drop the prestige, a Ferrari is made with much more expensive parts than a Prius.

What was more expensive to make? Red Dead Redemption 2 or Breath of the Wild? We both know the answer. Also, is it more expensive to develop a high end graphically intensive game on the PS5 or on the Switch?

It may be your criteria to take this as enough to pay more for the game, but I don't think there's anything wrong in a capitalist world to charge more for what costs more to make.

@Olmectron Yes, that's exactly what I said and you're not being hyperbolic at all.

SNES games should be offered as part an online service. Like NSO, for example?

$70 for the game plus $30 for the DLC is gonna make this an $100 dollar game. To anyone saying that the price of games hasn't kept up with the inflation, that's how they get you.

Also to anyone comparing it to the PS5, that's a next gen console with 4K, 60 fps and fast loading games (at least when it comes to first party games). The Switch is as powerful as a cellphone and it frequently runs games poorly.

I saw how brave she was in the trailer and I clapped.

I was a revolutionary game when it released but unfortunately it aged like milk.

I still think it's an important release because many people still enjoy it and even though I don't, I understand the appeal.

A mix of both would be nice, although Nintendo Direct without Iwata and Reggie wouldn't be the same.

No, absolutely not. Please no, god no!

Great gameplay, not so great story.
So like almost every Fire Emblem except the last 2 which had not so great gameplay and incredibly bloated story.

This is an easy buy for Fire Emblem fans.

The more the reviewers said that the social aspect was weak and the strategy was strong, the more excited I got for this game.

This is gonna be a great one!

As someone who liked Pokémon Scarlet, is Temtem worth it?

@Lizuka If you go online you can raid Mons from the other version. It's gonna be a good opportunity to catch each version exclusive.

@Jacket_p You couldn't be further away from truth. Ludwig's career was built from Smash and he always gives back to the community. No matter how much he advertises this or gets a last minute sponsor it will be a guaranteed financial loss.

Also the whole getting more subscribers is wrong too, since Ludwig is actually more popular than the Super Smash Bros competitive scene so it won't be a huge boost for him.

I know it's hard to believe, but in this case it's just someone who enjoys something and has enough money to give it back to the people that play the game.
