Yeah and the people who focus on that rather than the important issue of people dying need to sort out their bloody priorities. They are pathetic.

@Bermanator

Excuse for what?

@graysoncharles

No you muppet it is focusing on a pandemic rather than how a game is distributed.

So many idiots on this site....

@Toy_Link

The focus should be on the coronavirus and everyone's safety, not winning some battle to have the game on a cart or not.

That was my issue with your post.

PS5 is gonna walk it anyway as the Xbox Brand is so confused and the no exclusives for the new system in the first couple of years is idiotic.

@StevenG

Boredom?

@cptspaulding

You post at 61 originally said this at the start:

"I'm afraid misinformation is not a thing in my case. What is, is a higher understanding than you can comprehend."

Why did you take out the comprehend line? Is it because you realised it made you sound like a complete numpty?

@cptspaulding

You have a higher level of delusion certainly.

@erv

There are obviously those who take no responsibilty for their own actions but also many genuinely vulnerable people who are being taken advantage of by these companies.

And the people who spent thousands upon thousands should not be getting all the blame, the likes of EA should be getting done. At the very least it is about time the gambling laws were applied to lootboxes etc.

@Kalmaro

Done. That talk is not required in a story about pay to win mechanics.

@erv

Thing is the issue is much bigger than influence on kids and parental controls, main issue is for vulnerable adults who develop an addiction and waste all their money on something that isn't yet regulated as it should be as it is another form of gambling.

@Kalmaro, @Xiovanni

Take that bollocks elsewhere.

Of course they are, EA know exactly what they are doing.

Mortal Kombat games just aren't up to snuff. The sameness of all the fighters just from animation alone is rubbish. The modern MK games look good but it is style over substance.

I would file this under random rather than news.

Thanks for clarifying what was already an extremely clear statement. Do you have a minimum word limit on these articles?

Who cares what they say?

@Agramonte

I was just being a bit cheeky with the obesity bit, a bit of banter!

I am happy to see Luigi's Mansion 3 do so well, will probably be a 10 million seller by the end of the Switch's lifespan.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe = Beast.

My boy Luigi kicking ass and taking names.

Also happy for NSMBU Deluxe as it is great fun.

Cue another thread where everyone loses their minds.

I have learnt my lesson from past articles so I am out of here! Have fun people.

@Agramonte

Ring Fit Adventure has been selling well everywhere else but the USA where it is simply selling OK, based on the obesity rates in the US I would suggest they just aren't that fussed about fitness.

Your point about people playing at home is pointless unless you are using it as reference to some argument I am not aware of.

Edit: Ring Fit now confirmed to have sold over 2 million copies worldwide despite stock issues in the likes of Japan and UK. Not too shabby. Oh and Luigi's Mansion 3 has sold over 5 million.

@Agramonte

But it made the top 20 didn't it.

Your post is a non response.

Your comment: "If that means finding the time to sit at home and play it on a Switch, PS4, Xbox, PC or a Toaster Oven... that is what they will do."

So what?! What is your actual point?

And why are you seeking some kind of recognition that people play games in their house? This is not new information.

@Agramonte

Do you want a round of applause?! Aren't you the one who has been putting down Ring Fit Adventure any chance you could because it wasn't seliing the mad levels Wii Fit was?

What is your point anyway? Play at home or on the go, the Switch lets you do both and is selling games and consoles like gangbusters so proves Nintendo's strategy of letting people choose was the right one.

😂😂😂 I honestly can't believe you are actually looking for some kind of recognition for a simple observation that doesn't even hold true when you look at most other weeks on the chart when games that are portable dominate the charts.

All a bit sad.

Edit: And it just dawned on me you can STILL play Ring Fit Adventure portable if you want so your wee observation is even more pointless.

But well done, thumbs up there buddy.

@Kainbrightside

I finally have something in common with Doom Slayer!

Can't wait for DOOM Eternal but I am a tad concerned for the over emphasis on the story this time around. It was one of the USPs of the 2016 game in that it didn't mess around with story but there was one there if you wanted to go in depth on it.

Also I have seen footage of a cutscene where Doom Slayer is actually kneeling down to someone. Doom Slayer kneels down for no one!!!

Game will still be amazing though no doubt.

@N8tiveT3ch

Nintendo hasn't called this currently non-existent product anything.

@Yosher

Cooler than Ice Climbers! 😂

I would want him in just to get some of that Mick Gordon soundtrack into Smash.

@Yosher

It's Doomslayer.

Great update.

Needs the option to switch sticks still as Nintendo won't get off their arse and allow you to assign buttons at system level like Xbox and PS4 allows.

Actually get on that Liam Donlan please:
Ask Nintendo why they don't have this accessibility option. Ridiculous restriction in this day and age.

@Seananigans

It is two weeks of sales combined as there were no hardware figures last week.

Still very impressive.

Bethesda and Panic Button will need to have made a deal with the devil to get Eternal running on Switch in playable form!

9 Switch exclusives in the top 20. Great week for Nintendo especially considering the supply contraints for the base console.

Well pleased to see Luigi still kicking it in the top 10.

I really want to win the lottery, where is my article?!

@MsJubilee

Or he is just winding everyone up. Based on the comments doing a pretty good job too.

@LightBeam

"And now you're trying to make people who love Pokémon and only want a better game, who are ambitious and who don't mess around are toxic and egocentric"

Ambitious and who don't mess around?! What are you jabbering on about? You buy and play videogames ffs. Get over yourself.

Any wonder everyone else is laughing at you lot.

@MsJubilee

Oh wow, random person on internet knows better. I am sure he is crying into his pillows of cash because you know better.

Pathetic.

@NCChris

Well lets hope no one is pathetic enough to do that to GF employees.

@NCChris

Sounds like you care an unhealthy amount actually.

I would just leave twitter. Who can be arsed dealing with all these yapping gits all the time?

@brunojenso

100%

Love the update but please get rid of those borders and for the love of everything great add the option to swap sticks for us southpaws.

@johnvboy

Yep, 100%. It is quite hilarious they can't see the irony and part of me thinks they are happy to have something to complain about!

@Yorumi

No it is how extreme you are being as I said.

You can't have a rational conversation and instead flip your lid and accuse people of being "accepting of garbage" because they like a game you aren't happy with.

I acknowledged there were flaws and people were right not to be happy about them and you are the one being dismissive of others who still enjoy the games and insult them for doing so.

You are the problem and a perfect example of why no one takes you or many other whiners seriously. You sound like a nutcase to be frank.

@Yorumi

Your view is too extreme to take seriously.

People are genuinely enjoying the games, you need to get over it.

@AlexSora89

If you buy the game and all the DLC then are you not part of the problem and the ultimate hypocrite? And does that not prove all the early adopters right as the game was worth a purchase all along?

@Yorumi

Or the majority of long term fans that still bought the games just weren't that fussed.

I accept there are legitimate complaints and anyone actually celebrating the cuts is a bit wierd as you should always want a product to be as good as it can possibly be, but some of the people complaining went too far or weren't willing to listen to reasons why the cuts were made.

The games are out, probably sold 15 odd million now so it is best for everyone to either continue enjoying the games or move on and keep an eye out to see what happens with the next gen games.

@johnvboy

Aye probably. I can actually understand their annoyance but it is impotent, it won't change anything so the healthy thing to do is move on.

@Luffymcduck

What is sad?

Read my reply Yorumi, in the end all the complaining was never going to make a difference as the mass market just didn't care about it. Harsh but true.

@Luffymcduck

That is fine and I am not saying don't be annoyed about it, but it is the extent of the complaing really that I have to admit I found quite hialrious.

If a game series I am a fan of does the dirty on me then I just wont buy it and move on.

@Yorumi

Except the people championing it are as just a minority as the people who are complaining about it.

99% of the games' sales were to people who didn't care either way. Pokemon is a mass market product before it is a super fan product. That was never going to change regardless of all the fights on the internet by the few, the games were always gonna sell like gangbusters. All this means all the petitions and ranting etc were completely pointless to be honest.

@Yorumi

Admittedly I am just having fun too as I have never even played a Pokemon game bar a demo so have no real horse in this race. End of the day millions of people have just been enjoying the games whilst a very small minority, on both sides, are still losing their minds about this nonsense.

Life is too short to be this wound up about a videogame.
