@Liam_Doolan This only seems to be the case on the US store. On the European store it only says the item is no longer available with no option to enter your mail.
I've played it for 35+ hours now and haven't encountered any glitches or bugs, and no crashes either. I must be lucky with just framerate drops and pop-ins.
@VoidofLight No, you personally don't liking the console doesn't make it sad. Now go get Monster Hunter Rise on PS5 and go to Push Square instead of trying to bait users here. Have a nice day!
@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Are there really people that have denied that the game has issues? Among people who have actually played it, I've mostly seen comments that either say it's unplayable or that it has flaws, but is still fun.
I haven't finished the game yet, far from it, but I'm having very fun so far, despite the technical issues. It feels like an 8/10 or a 9/10 game if it weren't for these problems. A 7/10 seems fair if they don't patch it. The issues are annoying, but not game breaking.
The game seems fun, it's just a shame about the performance issues, especially compared to more graphically detailed games like Xenoblade Chronicles 3 running fine on the hardware. GF/TPC got to stop rushing these games.
It must be passing the PS4 soon, right? I think it will end up being the third best selling console of all time (after PS2 and DS), and Nintendo's second best selling after the DS.
Impressive resumé! Phantasy Star is one of the best JRPG franchises and the SEGA Ages series is just awesome. I've heard plenty of great things about Skies of Arcadia as well.
Should she be paid more? Maybe? It depends on the amount of work (number of working hours) needed for this job, which I don't have any insights into. Is it 400 hours? 40 hours? 4 hours? But I have a feeling this isn't the big controversy it has been painted out to be. We have her story and while I don't want to doubt her, I need more info to make a judgement. Plus her throwing the new voice actor under the bus seems petty to me.
But in the end, I don't have enough info, and what I have been presented with doesn't make me want to boycott the game.

These code in a box versions are pointless. I'm looking for a physical version of Yu-Gi-Oh!: Legacy of the Duelist, but all the copies from the first print run are sold out and used copies are rare and really expensive. The only version available right now in stores is the code in a box version. So annoying.
As a Swede, this might be comparable to a religious person cursing in church, but I don't get the appeal of ABBA (their last record – not counting the recent dull comeback album – is their only consistently good one IMO). But they have some catchy tunes though, which probably suits this kind of game.

Re: TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, LEGO Star Wars & More Crowned TIME's 'Best Video Games Of 2022'
The Turtles game is good. Haven't played the rest. A lot of them really are not for me and that's fine.
Re: Frustrated Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Players Are Reportedly Getting Refunds
I've been lucky so far: no glitches or crashes, just frame rate drops and pop-ins. So for me, the game has been perfectly playable and pretty fun.
But yeah, of course people should get refunds if not satisfied with the product.
Re: Site News: Got A Moment? Would You Kindly Fill Out Our Reader Survey?
Now give us a survey what we think about Nintendo Life as a site (structure, content, forums, etc).

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Leads Nintendo's Nominations At The Game Awards 2022
It most likely won't win this GOTY, but I'm still rooting for XC3, my personal GOTY 2022.

Re: The Nintendo Switch Has Exceeded 114 Million Units Sold
@darkswabber People already pointed it out, but I don't think your numbers are correct.
Re: The Nintendo Switch Has Exceeded 114 Million Units Sold

Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Persona 5 Royal On Switch
It runs and looks fine, I'm already 30+ hours in and liking it at a lot.
Re: Switch Sales Have Only Now Surpassed The Xbox One In The UK
No Fifa* or CoD on Switch.
*The proper version.
Re: Japanese Charts: Bayonetta 3 Debuts In Second As PlayStation 5 Outsells Switch
I guess CoD and Star Ocean plus the upcoming GoW pushed the PS5 sales. I guess it will be back to normal when Pokémon releases.
Re: Rating For 'Ghost Trick' Has Been Spotted In Korea
Seeing as this game is rare and crazy expensive on the DS, I would love for a port (and/or a new game) on Switch!
Re: Front Mission 1st: Remake Finally Locks In Release Date On Switch
Am I understanding it correctly that there will be a physical release?
Re: The First Review For Square Enix's Farming RPG Harvestella Is Now In
It feels like this will be a solid 7/10, with some 6's and 8's here and there. Which means a pretty good game!
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Would Love To See Call Of Duty On Nintendo Switch
How many "Person X would love to see game Y on Switch" articles have you written during your time at NL, Liam? 😂
Edit: So my comment doesn't get misunderstood, this is not a jab at Liam/NL. I just think it's funny how often we see these kind of quotes.
Re: Sega Veteran And Industry Legend Rieko Kodama Has Passed Away, Aged 59
Impressive resumé! Phantasy Star is one of the best JRPG franchises and the SEGA Ages series is just awesome. I've heard plenty of great things about Skies of Arcadia as well.
Too young. My condolences.

Re: Talking Point: Given The Voice Artist Controversy, Will You Be Boycotting Bayonetta 3?
@MattT3142 Yeah, seems like petty revenge.

@MattT3142 Thanks for the info.
Re: Talking Point: Given The Voice Artist Controversy, Will You Be Boycotting Bayonetta 3?

Re: Review: NieR:Automata The End of YoRHa Edition - A Modern Classic Shines On Switch
Just finished Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (135+ hours, my GOTY), so this will be perfect to pick up now.

@Pillowpants Try the demo!
@StarPoint There were more farming sims from SE in the Direct? But I agree this one looked the most interesting.
Re: Tactics Ogre: Reborn Producer: "We Didn't Think About Making It HD-2D"
I look forward to this game, even though I have it on PSP. I love the visuals. Not everything needs to be HD 2D.

Re: Review: Voice Of Cards: The Beasts Of Burden - The Ace Of The Deck In Yoko Taro's Card RPG Series
Please give us a physical release with all three games!
