Very excellent game for the masochistic fans of hardcore RPGs.
Unless it comes with the DLC I may not get it, but I would suggest giving it a look and if possible play on a friend's device. It's pretty brutal, so I can't say it's for everyone.
Lots of peoples here don't seem to get the whole point of the interview. Yeah, Splatoon is not a Western game. There's a reason, and it's cultural. Like it, hate it, it's all about how Japanese see what they make.
My first personal Nintendo product was a DS. I had CivRev and some vet game. I enjoyed both, as they showed how two screens and a touch screen could work together in different ways. Later, I bought Professor Layton and the Curious Village, and the rest is history.
So here I am eight years later with Switch in my possesion. All along the way it's been a fun time, thanks largely to Satoru Iwata and his employees at Nintendo. While all good things must come to an end, including Iwata himself, I'd like to think his vision and spirit of creativity will never die.
Rest in Peace. We send our respect directly to you.
This guy may have not intended to sound terrible concerning Iwata, but his "My OK game wasn't promoted therefore blame Nintendo for everything" is trash.
As a fighting game fan who just can't get the hang of them, I will pick up ARMS later. If these sales are anything to go by, I should have plenty of opponets.

Re: Switch US Retail Game Sales 'On Pace' for Nintendo's Best Launch Year Since 1995
Going with SMO and LA Noir this holiday. Can't wait! With Amazon Prime I may even save enough for some eshop stuff.
Re: Random: Super Mario World Artist Confirms Mario Really Was A Jerk To Yoshi
Sounds like he drew it as a "bop" but it became a point.
"so that’s why it became that Mario is saying ‘Go.’"
Read the article, Yoshi! bops

Re: SteamWorld Dig 2 Has Had the Biggest Launch in the IP's History
@Spoony_Tech
Serious question: has Nintendo bought any indie companies lately?
Re: Ultra Street Fighter II Had A Better UK Debut Than Marvel Vs. Capcom: Infinite
When your game looks worse than the previous game, you're in trouble.
Re: Gallery: Cosplay At The Tokyo Game Show 2017
The Splatoon stuff was fun, but the Pokeball Head was my favorite.
So simple. So strange.
Re: Reggie on How Nintendo Handles Announcements and Responds to Fan Input
Ah yes, please, oh wise and powerful gamer comments, tell why Nintendo is stupid and never listens.
Enlighten me with thy words, so I may whine and ***** like thee.
Share with me the secrets of buisiness, although you've never worked a day in your life.
Good article! Don't always agree with Reggie, but he's on point this time.

Re: New Splatoon 2 Stages and Weaponry Confirmed in Nintendo Direct
Glad Kelp Dome is back. New and Improved: Now with red ink!
Re: Feature: Exploring The "Switch Tax" And Why Nintendo Was Right to Use Game Cards
It all comes down to what they package with the game. If they throw in some sweet 1940s jazz, I'd pay $10 extra.
Re: Crime Classic L.A. Noire Is Sleuthing Its Way To Switch This Year
Day one. Love Noir, love video games, love the Nintendo Switch.
Re: Get Ready To Plough Some Fields In Farming Simulator: Nintendo Switch Edition
@Fuz Darn Italians, running off to dave the princess instead of unclogging the drains...
Maybe as an Italian I should follow that advice.

Never thought people would want to play at work to relax, but hey, whatever powers your combine.
Re: Splatoon 2 Designer Explains Why The Maps Rotate And Salmon Run Is Time-Limited
@erv I think Steve Jobs can apply here too.
Imagine a world without cars, computers, or Splatoon.

Re: CIRCLE Entertainment and Flyhigh Works Confirm Impressive Line-Up of Switch Titles
Teslagrad looked cool when it came out... I just never got around to getting it. Maybe now I will.
Re: Preview: Going Back to SR-388 in Metroid: Samus Returns
Looking forward to this. Glad Nintendo took down AM2R, if only to give this a better chance at sales with the unconvinced.
Re: Deals: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games and Accessories for September and October
Probably just Axiom Verge for me.

Re: Sploosh-O-Matic To Return In Splatoon 2 This Weekend
Nice special for the weapon. Here's hoping they hold off on releasing any new stages untill thet have at least 2 ready.
Re: Splatoon 2 is Adding "Dualie Squelchers" in Weekend Update
Looks pretty nice! It's great to have what appear to be weekly updates. Hopefully they can add some new or old stages next. Arrowana Mall, anyone?

Re: Luggage Company LeSportsac Has All Your Nintendo Travel Needs Sorted
Yikes, those patterns. I'm a simplistic guy myself. I'd buy a backpack with a Question Block... one, that is.
Re: Rumour: Wii U System Update Hints That Miiverse Is Coming To An End Soon
Great idea, iffy execution. Still sad to see it go. Nintendo will probably just integrate into the common social media sites for future needs.
Re: Feature: The Biggest Nintendo 3DS Games of 2017 - Summer Edition
Looking forward to the new Layton game. I started the DS line with Layton, and that's where it will end too.
Re: Review: Cursed Castilla EX (3DS eShop)
Very nice. Would probably add it to my Switch given the chance.
@aaronsullivan
Nice breakdown of the systems designed to actually give people (and game devs) a fair stake at life.
Game devs can't be human! They work too hard!

Re: Editorial: Satoru Iwata's Vision for Gaming Continues to Shine Through Nintendo
My first personal Nintendo product was a DS. I had CivRev and some vet game. I enjoyed both, as they showed how two screens and a touch screen could work together in different ways. Later, I bought Professor Layton and the Curious Village, and the rest is history.
So here I am eight years later with Switch in my possesion. All along the way it's been a fun time, thanks largely to Satoru Iwata and his employees at Nintendo. While all good things must come to an end, including Iwata himself, I'd like to think his vision and spirit of creativity will never die.
Rest in Peace. We send our respect directly to you.
Re: Feature: Castlevania Show Producer Adi Shankar On Respecting Fandom And Future Seasons

Re: Oddworld Creator Lorne Lanning "Has No Faith" In Switch
