Did no one noted the part of the video, at 6:40, where there's a realistic view of a garden with trees and deers in the front. And a hand that looks like it's giving them food. What was that? It looked totally out of place and lasted like 2 seconds...
Amiibo in stores aren't a thing anymore, at least where i live. I got most of them on amazon with lower prices. I still don't want to open them because some look to be really rare (=expensive!)
@Angelic_Lapras_King You can use it in your car, attach it to the steering weel and go! .... No, really, that would be dangerous... I'm writing this while I'm driving and throwing banana peels out of the window.
"Funny ’80s TV mode – experience the game as if playing on an ancient TV". I'm from the 80s too... So, does that mean I'm ancient...? 😉 I would say the game is fun, but it doesn't seem like. Guess I'll pass
Reading the title: "Can You Complete Super Mario Odyssey Without Walking?" my first answer was "Sure, I played the full game sitting on my couch"... So, I did it!
@Finlderp Ganondorf is already human-like and Duck Hunt duo would be just a realistic dog and a duck. I'm more interested in how he's going to make Kirby look realistic 😀
I normally don't use shield, grabs and dodge, because I'm pretty bad at smash... But i still enjoy the game a lot! And I am close to finish the World of Light mode! But... I don't like the minigame to shoot at spirits afre a match on spirit board. Anyway, to play with a nunchuk alone is cool!
"meaning 1pm UK time / 2pm CET on Friday morning" I guess you meant "am" in Europe. I don't think I'm going to stay awake till that late at night… I'm going to read the news in the morning… On Friday I have a full work day and after that I'm going to play some Smash.
I really like how Nintendo is creating those theme songs with vocals. Jump Up superstar has been for a long time in my playlist, and this one is going there too in short. I also often listen to the Fire Emblem Fates song that also has some great covers even on Spotify. Then there are the great remakes of oldies from Bayonetta. The playlist is building up with some great pieces! Please Nintendo, go on like this!
@AxeltheBuizel Me too. I live in Italy and it's almost impossible to find amiibos in stores. It's also difficult to find them online. I would totally like a bayonetta figure and really hope they reprint them. They are available online, on amazon, but with a very high price.
@Pod Why? What does it mean? Where i come from, it's the name of a smapl town next the one I grew up. Anyways, i fell in love with the art style, bus specially with the great animations. I hope too it's going to have some depth, guess we'll have to wait...
Kirby has always been my favourite smash character! This single player mode seems actually very complex and a little RPG with battles. It actually makes me want to play!
@Retupmocnin The PC version also supports touch screen controls. I've played this on a Surface Pro and it worked well. Aniway, it's not my kind of game.
Going back to the video cited in the article... am I the only one who got the impression that he talks a lot like Reggie? I mean, tone and rhythm sond very similar to me.
It surely makes sense from a marketing perspective. Most people will see the box and want to buy it. It's stupid, but it's going to sell. I uninstalled Fortnite from my switch because it also is, to me, a really stupid game. No story, no goals, just running around and killing people before getting killed. I couldn't find any fun in it, even if I managed to end among the fist 5 or so. Just a personal opinion, so nothing against the lots of people who spend a lot of time with the game.
Never used this feature, I don't see how other people could be interested in my screenshots... But I don't use social media at all (apart of this), so I'm probably not the best customer.
The game sounds like fun, i just can't stand the art style... It's a personal opinion, if it's good i could propose to use it with in therapy with overprotective parents.
I don't care at all about old NES games and cloud saves are a nice addition, but a way to backup (offline for example) should be free for everyone. I also don't play that much online. But what I really don't get, is why people are upset that there isn't something more. Nintendo has always been transparent about the service, and all articles and comment saying "we know almost nothing about it". Why? We already knew almost anything, why did people expected a surprise of some sorts? I'm not sure I made my point, but this is pretty interesting from a psychological point of view thata there is an expectation beyond facts.
My guess is that they are a little too optimistic with this. Still, I would totally use an app like that, if it really works... Haven't tried the Beta yet.
The game sounds more interesting than I thought, but I really can't get over the art style. I now it's down to personal taste. I even stopped playing that free pokemon game for this reason... And because I didn't like the gameplay,. actually. Still, I'm glad to see thay Switch has so many high rated games!
When they announced a collaboration with Nvidia and the Tegra Chip, my first thought was that it would be possible to extend the Geforce Now service (like in the Nvidia Shield Tablet and TV), to the Switch. So now I'm really surprised that Capcom is doing this! I don't have a strong internet connection, but I would totally pay a monthly fee to play high end PC games on the switch when at home!
Well, I'm not really into racing games, but... It's Retro Studios... I would buy their game even in a closed box. My only hope is that they don't do the "Rare" thing. An alternative Star Fox could be very risky...
Really hope that this guy leaving means he did his job and "something" has been finished... So maybe... E3? Really excited about Retro, and I do hope they make an new and original IP
@Senpai3D I guess it's not an easy task, but as the picture shows, when a gamecard is in the holder, you can only see the top of the card with the red Switch logo, you cannot see the corresponding game. The slots might be less deep, so the cards stand more outside, or there should be a cut out on the front. I think Nintendo made a bad design decision in putting the switch logo on the top. Anyway, it's cool that you're following the comments on this site!
A bit complex to set up, but if you can hide the original dock it looks nice. I would need a gamecard holder, the problem is all of those 3D printed hide the picture of the game... Still need to find a suitable solution.
@Mr_Pepperami me too... I don't know if it will become a good game in the end, but i never liked this kind of games... I was really hoping for some sort of sequel.
If they say that "Nintendo Switch will be supported post-launch with patches to update the experience", this is going to be a possible "post-launch" purchase. I really think us Nintendo fans are "spoiled" with games that are finished and complete from day one... Is this going to continue or is Nintendo also going to become like other developers?
So .. what do you have against pigs? They're beautiful animals! Even from the short demo I could tell this game is not worth my time. That is the problem with those productions when there are far more valuable options.
Anyways... In the end they made Federation Force as a multiplayer "Metroid" game. No multiple Samus running around. Let's hope we'll get a true single player experience. Maybe with some online arenas...
Something really interesting could be a way to actually make your own paper craft creations and have a software to "program" a game. Maybe something simple like combining the different sensors to different actions in real life and to things that happen on screen, like a custom mapping. Or registering with the IR camera and mapping the actions to sounds, movements or something. I'm not really sure how that could be done... But possibilities are almost endless and now they seem, to me at least, a little tied to the single software.
