Now they need to open a piracy branch in the library and call it "true preservation"?

Many games use X to jump, some even use triggers. Remap or get used to it, either way is fine. I always try the default controls unless they make no sense. This was logical and worked well.

Who in their right mind would buy a Switch controller with the awful PS stick placement?

So there is a risk of frying your Switch 2 on top of bricking it. Hard pass, especially since the price isn't that great if you need to buy the power supply.

I'd love to see a compilation of Nintendo patents that were never used.

PS2 sales are complete BS. Sony is just inventing numbers at this point, so even the original 155 millions can't be trusted.

Nintendo should counteract this lie by saying the virtual boy sold 161 million units.

I bet the last boss is Frieza, since the previous one was SSJ Vegeta. I definitely won't preorder it until I know if the story isn't complete BS like the first one (prequel my foot).

The only reason devs don't make switch version is because it requires much more optimisation. So a switch 2 version is a no trainer.

Next challenge: finish the game with Pauline as a rock. I'm sure someone will manage it.

He was role-playing as an ape climbing trees in BOTW. Now he's destroying everything, like link breaking every pots he sees.

You can also have infinite battery life if you connect both usb together. One will charge the other and your switch 2 will magically charge itself.

@Princess_Lilly Pokemon is developed by Game Freak, not Nintendo.

Isolated frame rate drops is the worst deal-breaker. Because of the frame rate in the Korok forest in BOTW, I could only stomach playing a few hundreds of hours.

I can only imagine the casting selection for link:

• Go ahead, say your line.
• Hyuk! Haya! Ugh! Ha!
• OK, next.

1h30 of Seth Rogen not even pretend to be an ape... Hard pass.

The only thing to know: DK is closer to a human than Mario after seeing actual humans in Mario Odyssey.

Also we need a DK rap single sung by Miyamoto in a DK costume.

That's only a problem for people who want to be tied to digital versions. Maybe they should go physical to support competion over video game prices. If not, they have no business complaining about it.

They named the company like a shovelware. Also "next-gen"... It's annoying when used for console BS marketing, but this is even more ridiculous for an SD card.

Custom local multoplayer knockout tour with customisable lenght with possibility to go through rainbow road.
Also rainbow road in free roam. And why not a Mario galaxy inspired race, going from planet to planet. Or maybe they'll keep it for Mario Kart Universe on Switch 3.

I've raced on rainbow road at least 3 times, so I'm pretty confident I'd be in the top 8 billion players.

Charles Martinet should also be mentioned as the official Mario ambassador and former voice of so many characters.

You don't need a dedicated nuclear plant to power it, unlike their latest GPUs, that's called progress.

I'll stick the the original pro controller until I find it at a huge discount

That's a real collector's item. It would fit perfectly behind an amiibo collection.

@Spider-Kev You're right, they did with the steam machine. It went pretty much unnoticed, unlike the steam deck.

I was thinking more of the recent rumours about a new home console. Now that they have a big success with portable console, people would probably trust them with a PS6/Xbox (random name) competitor. I'd probably go for a steam console and drop playstation.

@HyruleWanderer Zelda is rather manly and a real hero, always saving the unnamed princess. I wonder why they renamed him Link in BotW.

Could it be that the Hollywood idiots think Zelda is the hero???

I wonder how much Miyamoto has to say about casting. If this goes through, there won't be a Nintendo adaptation for another 30 years.

It feels like the console market might change a lot, except for Nintendo who will never care, being the king of its niche with it's awesome IPs.

If Xbox goes full handheld/hybrid, Sony won't be alone for long, and Steam might build a home console.

I could see Miyamoto dressed as Donkey Kong holding a giant banana, peeling it and revealing a Switch 2 inside. How fun would that be?

I'm sure Nintendo has an army of shinobi. They should use them against scalpers. Not for assassination, but to make scalped items magically return to the stores without refund (and assassination if they insist on scalping again).

I don't get the aim of this app. Forcing people to install a specific app to get news means it won't reach most potential buyers. I'm not installing it, so if it's not on NL or youtube, I won't see it.

Sadly, "Potential Mass Layoff" is the most accurate name for any Embracer division. "Stained Reputation" would also work.

I want to know if you can use the TV as a giant mouse pad, making this news even more accurate.

Some publishers are trying to make game key cards look good in comparison. This is utterly ridiculous.

You don't just drop support the soon-to-be best selling console of all time. Of course they will release games they started developing, even if they release them as cross gen.

Any news on a Switch 2 upgrade? I still have it on my replay list, but he keeps announcing more content, so I'm waiting for the best time to play it

Nintendo has the weirdest job titles, like Miyamoto who's "Creative fellow ". I'm sure it means something to them, but Charles Martinet probably still has no idea what his job is as Mario ambassador.

The second player will play a banana.
It'll be the equivalent of giving your dumb little brother the unplugged controller so he'd let you play in peace.

My habits changes a decade ago when games were unfinished at launch. So I got used to wait for a big discount and enjoy a finished game.

So it's not free, yet you still are the product? Did they hire too many people from evil businesses?

At least key cards are clearly displayed on the box. Code in the box was way worse, but I'm not happy about that all digital distopia.

@vincentgoodwin There were also games like LA Noire that required a partial download because they couldn't bother to go for the bigger storage.

I don't think Genki lawyers are having a good time. They are pretty much fighting with unloaded BB guns against overtrained ninjas.

Ecco the Game Cube

And nobody saw that coming at Genki? Of course Nintendo is demanding a pound of flesh... Probably more.

@Bigmanfan I read the article quickly, but it seems Genki wasn't in business with Nintendo, so they wouldn't have signed an NDA. So this is more like corporate espionnage.

Any square game from that era deserves a proper remake. FF6, Chrono trigger Bahamut lagoon.

I never understood why they went for orange. Nintendo's and the switch's colour is red. They didn't even go for the original joycon colours. Red and blue would make much more sense.

Maybe Platinum games really wants to focus exclusively on GaaS, so the best employees are leaving this sinking ship.

@Alcea NieR is a Squeenix IP. Platinum only developed Automata.

Those 8 years of intensive training finally paid off! Now it's time to Speedrun Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour!

@Olliemar28 you should call these articles "Nintendo Life Today". I really appreciate it since I have no intention of ever installing Nintendo today.
