I appreciate this. ...I stopped visiting GameSpot because it felt like whatever I was excited about at the moment might be spoiled just by their headlines alone! It’s a real bummer when it happens.
I had no idea people were down on Let’s Go. ...I’ve watch a number of YT Reviews and everyone’s surprised at how great it is. ...They thought it’d be watered-down, but it only seems to trim the stuff you’d want removed anyways.
Why would Nintendo even feel the need to participate at E3. They’re Directs are WAY more effective and way less expensive. ...And they get better coverage by all the YouTube vlogs.
Looks good. - Nice tone and the darker city aspects are refreshing. - I like that this is a real opportunity for some Pokémon to actually seem intimidating and spooky.
Seems to me, Nintendo needs to just go on and acquire Team Cherry so we can get the physical copy AND get the knight of Hollow Knight in SMASH. - Come on Nintendo!!! Do, otherwise Microsoft is going to suck them up. - It’s a great game!
I use an iPhone... YouTube now being on Switch means that I can finally watch YouTube with headphones and it not be a huge pain in the ass. ...for those who don’t know: iPhones and iPads haven’t had standard audio jacks for a while now.
Not really surprising. ...One of my favorite things to do on a Friday is visit a store and see if there’s any big Nintendo release that’s slipped past me. ...However it feels like it’s been months since there was a big release worth a damn. ...So nothing gets bought. ...Of course I do the odd Eshop purchase but those are often just about $10 and it’s once a week.
Indeed I have shuddered. ...The use of voice talent just comes off as a way to ensure that this game gets coverage on the YT channels. Smart for the developers but ultimately cheap and gross feeling to a guy like me. Ugh. ...I’ll pass.
@ShadJV Thanks for pointing that out. At least then they have a good eye for what’s fun. ...I’m going to start researching current Concerned Ape projects right now.
All this talk about the sound... i’ve Got my fingers crossed that we get a fix for the backwards A and B buttons. ...I’m accustomed to the standard Switch layout. Is it really so hard to give us an option to swap the A & B?
Why do you guys whine about price so much? - It’s tired and common sense. The developers are obligated to try and get what people will pay for their content. - If they don’t get the movement they need with the $10 then they’ll no doubt lower. ...Just consider the price the early access cost on Switch.
Area I could see them improving: Improve the antenna strength for the joycons and pro controller. ...I have to play Hollow Knight in portable mode because there’s a noticeable lag in responsiveness when playing from across a room.
As a kid I’d play games thuroughly. ...But as an adult, My time is too valuable. So, because I love this stuff... I’ve resolved to just get a new game every Friday or so to see what’s new. ...Results in a lot of barely played games (over 40 on Switch so far), but it doesn’t feel bad. It feels good to support the system and developers.
My wife and I got a kick out of this. Def like the idea of an evil princess. ...Just maybe tone down the boobs. ...but evil chicks in spikey turtle shells should be a thing.
Such an easy buy. ...I recall that Switch add where the guy travels around some Eastern country playing Pokken multiplayer. This collection is what he should have been playing. Worthy of buzz.
Not cool, NL. Clickity McClickbait ...It’s great they have a family plan for those houses with lots of machines, but if you can’t afford a $20 account and you’re an individual... You may need to get off the games and get your priorities straight.
I’m thinking the cloud save features aren’t really meant to be that big of a deal... just a handy option if you’re traveling and want to be extra safe. - IMO, the real thing Nintendo is after is becoming a sort of Netflix of games. Introduce the service at a great price and see how many people keep the service just based on them having 40 or so extra games to play at anytime.
1. Final Fantasy 12 was my favorite (non-tactics) Final Fantasy game. ...The battle system is great.
2. Capcom’s Beat ‘Em Up Bundle... It’s just perfect. It’s what I’ve always wanted but just didn’t know.
3. The price of the online service was really nice too! ...after years of feeling gouged by Microsoft, it’s great to see Nintendo kicking ass and not trying to over-step. Incredibly fair price ($20 a year) and so glad to continue to support them.
