@dew12333 I think it's different (just my opinion) but totally agree both are illegal (usually), so I suppose we agree about the core issue.

And yes, NintendoLife would be missing out on clicks, which is revenue for them in most cases. But you know what? Put that aside.

Crimes within the Gaming community are gaming news and therefore gaming sites should cover them. And why is the assumption that media coverage helps them? Perhaps a lot of people have been brought to justice because they received so much attention. Traditional media outlets are often the the reason criminals finally get brought down.

I've seen both arguments here, "Ugh thanks for writing about this, now they're are going to get a cease and desist letter." and "Ugh thanks for writing about this, now they're going to make so much money breaking the law."

In the end it is news, and this is a news site that covers Video Games.

@suikoden @dew12333 I understand your point, but it is definitely different. Fan made games are generally not sold for a profit or for any kind of monetary gain. This guy was just ripping off someone else’s IP purely for financial gain.

And on the topic of whether or not NintendoLife should cover things like this or fan made games that might encounter copyright issues the answer is yes. They are a video game news site, which means anything related to video games is fair game.

You can be sure their much bigger and better funded competitors cover this stuff and get clicks and ad revenue as a result. Why should NintendoLife miss out?

I just had one of those, “I suck at video game moments.” That was truly amazing.

@antdickens I HEREBY CLAIM I ALREADY KNEW THIS!!!!!! AAAHHHHHHHH!!!!1

Rad. Love stuff like this.

This is not good for my wallet.

Good or bad this would have surely been sought after by collectors today.

Give us a price drop for the Switch and the. a Switch Pro in 2020 and the money will keep coming.

Not targeting Halloween for launch seems like a missed opportunity.

@FiveDigitLP @princezorldo @theiRiS @AnnoyingFrenzy They’re doing it in Japan apparently. I just like being all digital and would happily buy the accessories separately from the game.

Haven’t tried it... Waiting on the Digital edition to launch in the US... If it does at all.

That's pretty amazing. Almost want to get it just to support this move, but would rather have it on Switch.

I'm sold, just hope you can download the game as I'm all digital this generation.

At least call it the Leg-Con!

But seriously when I start thinking things like this are stupid and you the gym and outdoor activities should not be replaced by this, I'm reminded that there is a worldwide obesity epidemic and anything anyone can do to get people moving is a good thing. So kudos to you Nintendo!

@rjejr One can only hope.

That is such a Nintendo move. Hiding a feature in plain sight and not making use of it for multiple years.

That being said it’s a welcome addition and kudos to them for using the same blue color going all the way back to the Wii disc slot and Wii remote indicator lights.

Give me folders or give me death!

@Heavyarms55 You mean bezel. And yes it should have been reduced in size.

Suggested article title:
Switch Lite to be same as Standard Switch.

Utterly speechless.

I was skeptical of her when she first came on the scene, but almost immediately she won me over because she is clearly a genuine and passionate gamer. Here’s hoping she keeps moving up as it’s a commonly held belief that Nintendo is a “boys club” at the top.

Sorry, but this thing is creepy.

Rich people with new iPhones: Am I a joke to you?

Ebayed my kickstarter PS4 version for a nice profit, will wait for the switch version to be fixed before I buy it.

Damn it... I might have to get this, Minecraft just doesn't work for me the way Terraria has. (PS4, Wii U, and 3DS versions)

I love my Wii U. It will definitely be set up next to my Switch for the foreseeable future as I work through my backlog and use it for the Virtual Console. They really should have enhanced the Miiverse for Switch and kept it going. So many games have it integrated, Wind Waler HD being one great example.

@Tibob Dear god you missed your calling as a product designer, brilliant fix for an annoying problem.

Never played FF VIII but I did look up the junction system because of the comments here and I think it's going to be a pass for me.

@carlos82 Dear god imagine how many they would sell!?!?

Such an incredible console with plenty of replay-able games.

Sweet nothing like getting added value out of previous purchase with a software update.

YES! It adds value to any game. No one is saying to clone exactly what Sony and Microsoft have done, do it in in the most Nintendo way possible.

And for people who don't care about them... Offer the option to disable them entirely.

I wonder what average citizen had that handle taken from them so Reggie could use it. Also, he should have gone with TheReginator anyway.

Killing Miiverse was a terrible idea. They should have just rebranded it and made it part of the Nintendo Online Package. Nintendo's problem with Online is that they start from scratch with every generation rather then building on and improving what they already have.

I want that white N64 jacket.

If it comes with new themes for the OS it'll be a day one purchase for me.

@Snakesglowcaps Exactly. It boggles the mind to think about BOTW in VR using the current hardware, but Nintendo might be able to pull off something amazing, we'll just have to wait and see.

@Snakesglowcaps I'm about as confident as you can be without actually having my hands on it. (99% confident)

This site has the trailer for it: https://labo.nintendo.com

It clearly shows you sliding 1 Nintendo Switch into the Labo VR setup. I'm not trying to say something negative about the Labo, I was merely pointing at that as a PSVR owner I'm surprised Nintendo is doing a such a big VR push with a screen that is lower resolution than what is commonly accepted as the minimum for playable VR.

That being said something I've always loved about Nintendo is their ability to turn less into way more than any other company could have. It's actually part of their culture and how the gameboy came to be. The term is called, "Lateral Thinking with Withered Technology"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunpei_Yokoi#Lateral_Thinking_with_Withered_Technology

@Snakesglowcaps Actually PSVR and LABO VR work exactly the same way. One screen displaying two images (one for each eye) Then a set of lenses to properly focus said images to create the 3D/virtual effect.

The PSVR has a 1920 x 1080 screen which is 960 x 1080 per eye.

The switch has a 1280 x 720 screen which is 640 x 720 per eye.

The point is both systems have one screen and the horizontal pixels are divided in half for each eye. So the more pixels you start with the better.

@JaxonH Hey, I’m a Nintendo fan and would love to see this succeed so I’m all for it, but I am skeptical to a degree.

I just can’t see how this will work with a 720p screen. I have a PSVR and its really cool and usable, but even that is held back a bit by the 1080p screen.

Really not sure what to say here...

Should have used Half-Life 3 as the punch line.

Welp, didn't expect this turn of events, but here we are. No clue how this is going to end.

@smashboy2000 Have any Saturn games EVER been redone/re-released? I'm asking because I'm a big Saturn fan and kind of annoyed we never got VC Saturn games.

Just another reason the Virtual Console is superior to this subscription service.

Hacks are newsworthy. Imagine the media didn’t cover the most egregious hacks for any industry, it would be much harder to hold companies accountable. It’s news, bad news, but still news. They’re just doing their jobs.

PSVR is only passable at 1080p... I don't see how this is going to be usable at all.

Nope. Had this growing up for my N65 (came with a sticker on the top)
