Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Switch 2 Edition Gets A New Overview Trailer

I am in the same camp as you NL-Towers folks. I can't get excited for this DLC. I need to know if the single player stuff is substantial enough to warrant a buy. Otherwise it'll be a hard skip for yours truly. I never play games like this multiplayer. That's what Mario Kart and Party are for. Call me conservative, but that's just my two golden coins.

Re: New Survival Game 'Pickmon' Is Just Asking To Be Sued Into Oblivion

@solarwolf07 How should we call it if not a rip-off when it's so obviously copied homework? I don't have any problems with monster collecting games not being Pokémon. But all I ask is that studios are original in their approach and these games clearly don't fall into that category. Monster Hunter Stories and Dragon Quest Monsters on the other hand are original and not blatant rip-offs specifically because they are doing their own thing. I'm sure there's plenty of other examples, but those are the biggesst I can name.

Re: Capcom Wants To Know Your Thoughts About Resident Evil Requiem

Just got my free wallpaper. I love the game, but the pacing can be better. I liked the switch between playstyles, so far, but a clear chapter structure like Resident Evil 4 and Revelations would have been better.

Overall I still rate the game very highly and would love to see more Resi games on Switch 2. I hope the sales of the generations pack will give a clear signal that we want more modern games on the system. Can't wait for the remakes of 2 and 4 for instance to be available.

Re: UK Charts: Pokémon Pokopia 'Undersupplied' At Retail And Falls Short

@EVIL-C It's not gloating, it's just the facts. And whether or not we like it, Game Key Cards exist. Sure, we can send a message by boycotting it, but as you can see, a lot of people seemingly don't care about it. Hence my conclusion that the loud minority is right here on NintendoLife and Reddit (places I frequent myself, and thus can say something about).

@Folkloner the problem in your reasoning is that there was no supply, though, so there is no way of knowing how it would have performed if the supply would have been bigger. You are proposing a theory. The reality is that the copies that were available all sold out. So there's no way of knowing how it would have performed if the supply had been bigger. Hence it cannot have underperformed in the current state of affairs.

Seems like they seriously underestimated just how popular Pokopia would be. I have to admit that I am pleasantly surprised it is a really good spin-off game and I can't wait to get it myself.

Looks like they'll have to print a whole bunch of extra Game Key Cards, then... And here I thought everyone was against them! Just goes to show how much of an echo chamber we are in and how loud minorities make it seem like no one is buying games on GKC.

I'm really happy to see Resident Evil Requiem and all other Resi games perform so well. I've just finished a large segment with Leon and I think I'm getting close to the end. I will definitely replay the game several times over, as one usually does with Resi games. But I think I've been busy way over the 12 hours How long to beat says is the average playtime. I feel like I'm really doing a leisure playthrough, hahaha. But in all honesty, I just love exploring every nook and cranny of the game, just as I do with Metroid games.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (28th February)

Hello fellow Nintendo Lifers! I am attending a market this weekend with my wife. We are selling her wares there, so I won't have time to play. I am still waiting for my copy of Resident Evil Generations pack to arrive. I got the controller, but there was some sort of problem with the distributor... I hope my copy will arrive soon next week, because I have a week off from work.

I did get the new Resi themed Pro Controller, and it plays so smoothly! I only tried it for a bit with Donkey Kong Bananza and Tears of the Kingdom. I really love how silky smooth it feels!
