Ryan, go write about this instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWJcpodpNLE

This reminded me I didn't think about when I upgrade to the Switch Pro and can't move my game to it. Ugh.

Oh kids, tsk tsk.

Pledged (physical). No brainer really.

The last proper Nintendo Direct was in September. Every time I see a new article on NL I get excited it is Direct related. Alas, it never is ;_;

Is To The Moon back on the eShop yet?

@westman98 If you don't see the potential of this happening, then you're a bit delusional. They have Mario Kart, Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem on mobile now. Zelda will be next (it's already been confirmed).
Look at what's happening with the Pokemon Company: putting more money on mobile games than the actual canon console games.
Surely Nintendo stopping console games altogether is farfetched, but investors making them put more money on mobile than console is not out there at all (it's pretty much happening everywhere else).

Let's remember the $8 billion profit on Switch was achieved with more money and time put into the games/consoles. Mobile games require probably a tenth of the workforce, time and money to develop.

The problem I see here is that Nintendo can easily go the way of Konami: they invest more and more on easy money-grabbing gacha mobile games and suddenly the investors see "hey guys, this is where the money is at, let's stop making console games!".

It's sad to see Nintendo going this way.

RIP Nintendo.

Great to know a mang could perhaps be in consideration.

Why do the cutscenes have a strange frame rate? The gameplay footage seems to be fine. Isn't it normally the other way around? lol

I wish I had bought it when it came out. It's sold out everywhere now.

Wish there was a way to get some physical pre-order bonus when you pre-order the digital version

Ryan's choice for game of the decade doesn't disappoint. This is classic Ryan.

High quality animations.

Hang on, I thought competitive players welcomed the Dexit!?!???

I think after I turned 25 I started to appreciate socks as gifts VERY MUCH. I always tell everyone, if you don't know what to get me for Christmas, just any socks will do. Nintendo themed are always appreciated more tho.
I spend the year buying the things I want for me and socks are never top of the list, so pretty much all the ones I use were gifts lol

They are gamepads for crying out loud. A gamepad is not a new concept.

@antdickens So if they're not being sold as replacements, why call them joy-cons? They certainly don't have all the functions of an actual joy-con. And you can throw a Pro Controller or a smaller 8bitdo controller in your bag too, and you still don't call them joy-cons.
Why are we arguing the obvious here? These are not joy-cons, article shouldn't call them joy-cons. Nothing more to add.

@antdickens Well I can manufacture a pair of 8bitdo look-a-like tiny controllers and market them as joy-con replacements. But are they really tho? Again, they are joy-con replacements as much as a Pro Controller is a joy-con replacement. But you don't call a Pro Controller a joy-con. It's painfully obvious.

EDIT: The video even shows that they can't be used as joy-cons in games where you use both joy-cons vertically. So much for replacement.

@antdickens They are joy-cons as much as the Pro Controller is a joy-con. It's not being pedantic, it's being accurate. Which I know is not one of the characteristics of Nintendo Life, but still, one can hope.

They are normal gamepads. Not joy-cons. They can't be attached to the console like joy-cons and can't be used like joy-cons. Oh Ryan...

Ryan, this is News. I've never seen anyone more unqualified for this job.

Ryan please use the Random label. Cause this is absolutely not News.

EDIT: The article you link at the end is correctly labeled Random.

@MrTanuki Oh baby if it was just this article lol

Yeah and I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here was the most watched TV show in the UK. Let's all watch it.

When is Ryan getting fired?

@MrGawain those consoles didn't have digital downloads iirc.

Absolutely agreed.

Poor Skyward Sword

To this day I still can't understand how Nintendo managed to fudge up such a common component of any game controller. And not fix it yet!!
It's not even worth buying a new joy-con right now because it will just start drifting again.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Root Letter. What is wrong is Nintendo Life being allowed to utter any opinion about it.

One Witcher game on a Nintendo Switch and suddenly we need to know the actor on the live-action adaptation of the books got some pants. Thanks Nintendo Life.

Seems to want to copy Silent Hill. Wonder if it will succeed at being a good game. Definitely interested.

What consoles can it emulate?

Devil May Cry 3 wasn't released this year. It'll be released next year.

Cross-platform with the Final Fantasy games would be great actually.

GameFreak and The Pokémon Company have reached insane levels of arrogance. Pokémon is the most profitable entertainment franchise in the world and they're claiming "injuries" for information leaks that happened a few weeks before release? I will never again buy a game from these once-great companies (they have enough sheep giving them billions).

Great... Thanks Nintendo, now how am I going to keep my 3DS from tipping over?

This is the kind of bold Nintendo move I wish happened more often.

I have one (grey) and love it.

Awesome. Just finished DMC2 last week.

I clicked on the Mario Kart Screen Print and it's out of stock.

@Giygas_95 yep.

Currently finishing up Resi Zero and Broken Age. Then may either move on to Bayonetta 2 or Astral Chain.

It's those little details that show how much love and care was put into this game. Bravo GameFreak!

This article was written to add those affiliate links. I'm not sure why anyone would expect actual content from this.

Nintendo Life once again disrespecting anyone who doesn't lick Game Freak's anus. Disgusting website. Starting any article with "of course" is on par with the quality of journalism of The Sun.
