@Jeronan that's a good point actually, UK regulations are (thankfully) much harsher

@JimNorman No worries 🙂, the ever changing world of video games doesn't care if you just released your article it will still screw you over seconds later 😅 I want that arm cannon too. Has there ever been a cooler pillow

@PessitheMystic haha yeah It got posted and then I think literally a few seconds later it was on the store

@FX102A say you won a competition for being such a big Metroid fan... That or flee the country😆

Good news, it's not Japan exclusive. It's on the UK store too. Not all of it is but most of it is. Just the ice cube tray is missing I think

I own every Zelda game physically so I will be getting this too, although I am not hugely into warriors games I do want to see the story, and to be fair it looks pretty good

This is pretty bad, if videos like this can be generated with very little human input, then why would anyone care to make it for real. In one way it's good, it allows for more individuals to make videos, but its also bad in that it will completely over saturate an already over saturated market. That and basically every animator and VFX person is likely to lose their jobs

Zion's videos have been great to watch and his experiment and video around street pass was a fantastic watch. Wishing him all the best of luck for whatever he's doing next.

P.s does anyone know what his band is called? Never been able to find it

Wait so 3 lap races are now impossible online, or is it just intermission races from the 3 selectable each time are included in random? If it's the second that's fine, if it's the first... What the hell, why the hell would they get rid of 3 lap races?

Genki make good products but I do wonder how much the Nintendo lawsuit will damage them. To be fair, they only have them selves to blame 😅

Wait you can game share it to switch 1 as well?! That's crazy cool! I didn't know that was a thing!

My hype has reached nuclear levels and the goggles... they do nothing! Picking up Yakuza 0, Mario Kart world bundle and Fast fusion on day 1. Also had to get that sweeeeeet Gamecube controller. Probably play a bit of breath of the wild too. Oh and got the time booked off work and even get to collect at midnight! Haven't done a midnight console launch before I hyped!!!

@OneArmedGiant just seen that there is a demo so will give it a try, tried watching it on my phone and pc and both really hard to focus on what's happening

I can't tell if my video player is messing up but is it supposed to be insanely blurry? It's actually headache inducing. The game sounds fun but I genuinely cannot focus on the footage properly to tell what's going on

Just realised. Digital copy of DK at £58.99 is actually cheaper than switch 1 digital games.

Smash ultimate £59.99 (eshop)
TOTK £59.99 (eshop)
Botw £59.99 (eshop)

So all this kick off about pricing is about

1) Mario kart being £7 more expensive digitally £15 more physical ( which you can bring down to £35 digital if you get the console bundle)

2) people thinking RRP is a set price and cannot be completed with ( you can get DK physical for £59.99 already)

So basically a £6-£15 increase for physical games and bar mario kart, standard price for digital. Even the switch 2 edition games are coming up for £60 here, but you could just buy the switch 1 box pre owned and get the upgrade for less

It is concerning that game prices have barely gone up ( and in fact went down after the 90s) in 25 years and when they do go up people instantly kick off. Game companies do need to follow inflation too. Don't get me wrong of course I would rather pay less, but considering the literally 10s of thousands of lay offs in the last 3 years in this industry, I think an extra $10-$20 is reasonable. Games in 2005 in the UK for example were £40. That's £67 in today's money. In real world money games are about £3-13 higher than they were 20 years sgo

That direct was insane! What a reveal! I wish there was 1 or 2 more 1st party games but an open world mario kart on day 1 and a new 3d DK a month later? SOLD! Best direct in years. Also.... AN EXCLUSIVE FROM SOFTWARE GAME?!?!?

Great game, happy to hear that it is potentially getting ported but... Can we please get a Kid icarus uprising port. Please Nintendo, that game is so good

Is this going to be like Concord where a company chases a trend that was popular 4 years ago, take 5+ years to make it and then wonder why it fails?

Managed to make it in, refreshed the second it opened and managed to apply and get accepted.

How does this keep happening with Nintendo developed games. I swear its been every single one since 2020 or so

The 160 million Jim Ryan tossed out was clearly a lie. Why would he just randomly know that number and announce it on a podcast 14 years after the console stopped being manufactured XD

@AlexOlney I thought the same thing, I have never heard of this game... I assume its a Fall Guys clone?

Thank Goodnesss this article is here, Reggie's wife could learn a thing or two from this

After NMH 3 Im personally fine with no 4th one. I felt it was the worst of the 3 by a long way, the open world was really bad and the combat was a big step down from the 2nd. The fights were also way too focused on gimmicks than being actual fun fights

I've got a huge backlog to work on, but after playing the demo of this I was hooked. I just had to get it and I have no regrets. Such a fun game

I've still got my pack, along with the awesome playing cards that used Snes sprites for each card

@blindsquarel Well said. Emulating games no longer on sale, or in all honesty hacking your Wii U or 3DS is fair as you cant get the games any other way than crazy prices on Ebay. But hacking your Switch, a very active console with multiple options to buy the games, or emulating the switch, you are just straight up stealing. 100s of people put thousands of hours into making those games and you may not think stealing it will effect the sales too much but it can, its stopped films from getting sequels and it will do the same with games.

I always wanted a Yo-Yo kirby plush as a kid... and as adult 😅

I've seen a few people posting on fb saying they thought this was real. It's amazing these people know how to type if they believe a story like that 😅

@T-Rexy im seeing similar comments elsewhere. Interesting that it had more content for the wii. I only ever played the 360 version so I dont know the differences.

Why are they remastering the Wii version? Surely use the xbox version and then implement the wiis motion controls?

Yeah this kickstarter made me loose a lot of trust in platinum. They caught a lot of people out with the shipping costs

Great, just found out the hard way if your card expires/ gets destroyed you can't change the payment method. The official support channel says it will automatically cancel after X amount of attempts. Then the item will be gone as its not in stock Nintendo strikes again. How can a company that big not have the option to update payment methods!

Edit: Got lucky it is back in stock, still, no option to update payment method is ridiculous

Wow. This is a super misleading title surely you should put "Fan made mod" or " emulator" in the title

@Oldiebutnoobie So did I. Had no idea it came with the extra case. Very nice one too

I picked it up today. I sold the original a month or so ago to knock the price down a bit, along with a couple other duplicates I have picked up over the years. Loving it, its surprising how much faster it plays. Still one of my favorite Mario games.

As much as I love Fan gamed ( i even review them) but they were making money off these fan games through ads so this time it seems fair. Nintendo do need to embrace fan games though, that Missing link one sounds awesome.

I don't think its due to Steve or his level specifically as the competition is limited to N64 characters and levels anyway. May be an issue thats cropped up elsewhere

If you want something funny I recommend Trover Saves the universe. If you like Rick and Morty you will enjoy it I reviewed it recently

@sanderev lol again no its not. How on earth would i find out the information for that? The seller has to display that information and again kickstarter rules state you have to display all potential fees. Platinum made a mistake they need to own up to that. Stop defending dodgy practices this is why companies think they can get away with it because people defend them. I love Platinum, mgs rising, bayonetta, mad world and hell yeah wonderful 101. But this is a kick in the teeth to the people who love them the most. Own up to it, reimburse those people move on. Done and dusted no harm done

@Tyranexx its is partly there fault however platinum selected them to distribute. So kind of both there faults but ultimately platinum were responsible for informing their backers

@sanderev lol no its not. Kickstarter rules state you must inform backers of potential chargers regarding import fees or otherwise. Also IT IS down to the seller to state where they are shipping from. They offered the product to the uk so it should of been clearly stated in the project that import fees would apply. Not hidden in the FAQ and added after they had been backed

@sanderev they never stated they would be shipping from america. Games for the uk come from Germany. Considering the project didnt state this when people backed it they have broken kickstarter rules and falsely advertised the product. They added details at the bottom of the FAQ several weeks after it was backed.

Wow platinum resepect for you just went from 100% to 0 you scum bags. Just admit your mistake refund people and move on

Was hit by this too. Why are they shipping from an American company to the uk? There a Japanese company. It said nowhere on the project page about import fees and yeah like most other people, i have paid more than an extra 50% for a game that came out 2 months ago

"ARM-Chair". Brilliant

Can we please get this trending on twitter so Nintendo implement all of this haha

Wow, that frame rate is terrible even in the trailer XD
