Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 Gets Its Nintendo Switch Release Date

RogerF

The great thing about these remakes (on PS4 at least, I cannot speak for other versions) is that they bring you the games today as you remember them.
Everything looks and sounds good, and is fun as heck to play, just as it did and was back in the day.
Aging has been compensated by some outstanding plastic surgery.
I only wish you could change the looks of all skaters - not just your created one- with your purchases from the shop, because Chad Muska couldn't dress then, and he still can't now.
For those of you who have missed out on the orginal games, simply bear in mind that THPS 2 stands at number 2 on Metacritic's all time ranking, right behind a mediocre Peter Pan impersonator with a flute.

I have no idea why this kind of stuff is showing up on this site, but I enjoy it very, very much. Bravo and thank you.

On a sidenote, now seems a good time to complain about the lack of screenshots in your reviews. You guys need clicks, right? Bring those pics on, then. Three or five just won't do. Don't even get me started on the video caps (or edits, really) you should be doing instead of getting off on mentioning whether the still shots are handheld or docked.
If you have no funds, nor will or organization skills to live up to the bar you obviously want to set, then change your ways, and we, your readers/customers, shall lower our expectations without feeling deceived.
I don't expect a perfect match between us, but a balanced relationship would do just fine.

Yet again, big up for publishing this particular piece.
Please continue.

Hugo was featured in a French "interactive" TV show from the early 90s named "Hugo Délire" ("Hugo Craze").
Contestants would call the hostess (cheesy pop singer Karen Cheryl) in order to play video game stages starring Hugo. The character could be controlled live by pressing certain keys on the telephone (4 for left, 6 for right, 2 for up, you get the picture). Here's what it looked like :

(actual gameplay starts at 2:04)
At the time, it was quite something.

@TryToBeHopeful
The battery should not be in use when docked. The power should come from the AC only.

@gauthieryannick
Yes, if you follow (this) logic.
Or we can assume my above point (battery not in use when docked) is valid, even in your particular case.

And to make things clear, I'm not frowning upon this product.
I was just replying to the second comment from this section, which was :

"Still can’t charge whilst using so....worthless."

Bisous.

@Razer
Basically, what Razer said.
Laptop batteries. Telephone batteries. You name it.
And just common sense, really :
why would you want to use (=empty the battery power) and charge it at the same time? Do you hit the brakes and the gas concurrently whilst driving?
Tu dois conduire bien mal, mec.

Re: Feature: Samurai Shodown Director "Cried Out In Surprise" When He Saw The Switch Version

Dear lovely people, welcome to the brand new start of a classic series to be : the almighty <red color for style> INTERVIEW ART BRAWL</red color for style> !

For this first issue, we consider Ivan Pabiarzhyn, proudly sporting a casual zipped sweat jacket (it actually costs a fortune and was very popular in Ibiza and Courchevel in 2014/2015), with a smiling and gentle attitude, yet displaying an eastern knee cap drilling vibe drenched in vodka (drink responsibly).

And on the opposite corner stands Nobuyuki Kuroki, acting as tough as he can (the NintendoLife brief to both contenders obviously was : wear black, cross your arms and strike a pose in front of a light backdrop), timidly displaying his background love for female behinds, and always keeping his wine unopened (drink responsibly, again and always).

So, dear readers, what will it be for you this first time around? The soothing charms of cherry trees or the savage call of the tundra?

Please let me know in the comments below.

Re: Random: Nintendo's Selling Empty Boxes Of The Animal Crossing Edition Switch

RogerF

Wouldn't this box be disregarded by collectors since it does not appear to include the folding cardbox pieces meant to separate the elements inside the package ? And I'm not even getting into serial numbers and barcode issues...
Isn't this just a piece of promotion meant for stores and shops to display behind windows and on shelves ? Usually such items are free, but since most of them remain in a storage room or are given away to customers, this is a way for Nintendo to ship a product that will actually be displayed, because ordered and paid for.
Just my two rupees anyway.

Re: Nintendo France Bans Hero From Official Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Tournament

@personauser93
Please explain why am I such an ignorant. Thank you.

Edit :
I get the feeling you misunderstood my initial post and wanted to bravely come out and defend the offended by accusing me of precisely what I was taking a stand against. I am French and found the author's view condescending. But this is just a video game site, so all is well at the end of the day, it's all leisure and entertainment. I don't bleed from the written matter in the article, as you being "shocked by such ignorance in 2019" on my part does not ruin my mood. I gently pet the high horse you are on and wish you a good day.

Re: Poll: How Do You Pronounce These Nintendo-Related Words?

RogerF

@ThanosReXXX
1) Your comments are always way too long, you should sum up your thoughts more.
2) "aimé" does not mean "friend" or "comrade", that would be "ami" or "camarade".
"aimé" is strictly "beloved" or "loved".
"my beloved Reggie" would translate to "mon Reggie aimé" and "I loved my son Reggie" would be "j'ai aimé mon fils Reggie".
3) Évite de te la péter quand tu ne sais pas, tu passes pour une chèvre.
4) Gros bisous.
