I personally like them, and people forget Legos are mostly for kids. Yes adults can get some enjoyment out of Legos as well, but this is obviously a series of sets aimed for kids.
@AxeltheBuizel You realize people have different opinions on what kind of games they like to play. Persona is a rather niche series, and most may not enjoy it.
@HappyMaskedGuy Investments require money. Nintendo has a lot of money. A LOT of money. And as I said, this team specifically only does these kinds of games, that is what they are hired to do. They do not have any hand in Zelda, Mario, etc. If Nintendo was worried about having enough people or resources for their people they would buy or hire as much as they need as long as the product is set to yield a profit. This ring thing will make Nintendo tons and tons of money, money that can be put into the bank or invested into new properties if they so wish.
@jockmahon @HappyMaskedGuy Do a little research about how companies are structured, specifically Nintendo too. The development team that created this is the same group who have done Labo, and other projects that are considered “gimmicky”. This group is specialized in doing these kinds of projects and do not hold back Nintendo as a whole even in the slightest. The only thing similar to an employee getting “pulled over” from another development team would be maybe a leader from another department or a higher up in the corporate chain that checks in on them and says “ok looks good” and goes back to talking with shareholders.
@RickD Uhm.. you not liking the genre says a lot about Nintendo’s thoughts on this game? Unfortunately, while your opinion is yours it does not reflect an entire company or product.
@Cotillion I honestly would rather play this on my phone than Switch. Easier to pull out my phone on break than to lug around my Switch. Dr Mario is perfect for mobile.
@rushiosan @FTL But its an icon, half of the icons listed in the article are just people nit picking. I don’t see any issues with the Sonic Mania one for example. We are living in a period where more parts of media are transferring to a minimalistic approach to design. If I enjoy a game, an icon won’t make the experience unenjoyable.
@darthstuey I love it when younger generations are exposed to older media. As a kid I have fond memories of using cassettes and VHS tapes even after CDs, DVDs, and digital media became the norm. Makes them appreciate our past and our future. Can’t stand it when kids make big deals these days over something being “old”. I hope your kids enjoy exploring more classics!
Personally I find it difficult to use a media’s age as a negative against it. I have recently been getting into older games from my childhood as well as before my time I never had a chance to play. Some of these games have shown their age, maybe enough so I lose interest, but I don’t dock it against the game. I just picked up NFS Underground 2 for the OG Xbox, only played it a little as a kid. At first the game feels dated, but the more I play it the more “into” the game I get. I can see past the 480p graphics and appreciate a solid experience to be had. I am excited to get FF7 when I recieve my next paycheck and play this classic!
@Mogster “limited resources” hah, Nintendo is a large company, you do realize within large companies there are many different departments and employees who specialize in different areas right? To port a game requires only a few employees, who themselves were likely hired into Nintendo for that matter. Miyamoto himself doesn’t drop working on whatever big project to port a simple New Super Mario Bros game to Switch. I wish people would understand this.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it came to being some kind of mobile chat platform for Switch. Its pretty smart, let a company who is experienced with online chatting handle it leaving Nintendo with little responsibikity or liability when it comes to online interactions in chat form.
Its not illegal to modify the systems, it is illegal to sell pirated games. Also what stupid person buys a premodified system? Isn’t all the fun in doing it yourself?
Switch could not have been released at a better time. Bringing out games like Mario Odyssey and Zelda BOTW at a time where Xbox One and PS4 are at their peak to steal some of the thunder, making sure the Switch will stay relevent for a long time while Microsoft and Sony are now scrambling 2018 trying to figure out where to go next as their consoles are staring to dwindle in popularity.
@Cobalt The only thing terrible about this game is how they’ve gone about releasing info regarding it. There what like 8 game modes and only one has been shown, all paying homage to classic games supposedly. I don’t think it looks like the best thing ever, but I am keeping a safe distance as I love Travis as a character and the art style but am worried of what the other games it has in store. Again doesn’t make it a terrible game.. just gotta keep expectations realistic.
Reminds me of those “animated characters but realistic” memes that was popular like 10 years ago.. Pikachu looks great, can’t say charizard does though
@Cobalt I mean most of those games you can get on PC anyways, PS4 isn’t dominating any more than Xbox and PC are. Red Dead and Spiderman are really the only two console exclusives to worry about this season that Nintendo needs to compete with.
@Retupmocnin Wii U got the same amount of shovelware, I remember searching on the eShop and finding lots of crappy games, hell the same can be said about the 3DS eShop.
@Cobalt But why not get a micro SD? Expandable storage isn’t new with consoles. Hell a 1TB PS4 didn’t even become standard until the Pro came out, 500 GBs to store all those massive games with the original PS4 I find way more inexcusible than Nintendo letting you buy a micro SD to store more games.
Its finally happening for realsies this time, nintendoom is happening! Nah, its just a bug they plan on fixing later. They achnowleged it and unfortunately some things can’t be fixed immediately. If Mario Tennis was released by any other company they wouldn’t have been as generous as Nintendo/Camelot have been with updates this far out from its original launch, so the constant negative attention this game recieves on this site is way more than it deserves.
@Anti-Matter I haven’t played the games but aren’t they about spirits and such? That normally goes hand in hand with creepy or scary stuff. Can’t say I didn’t expect there to be creepy looking monsters.
