Re: Random: Nintendo Is A "Wonderful" Place To Work If You're A Genius, According To Former Employee

SakuraHaruka

@LadyCharlie
It sounds somewhat exaggerated, since the people who work in any corporation, from the most humble employee to the top boss, are humans and not having, at the very least, "comradeship" would indicate that it should not even be considered a "corporation."

It is true that positive things do not always happen, whether for the good of the company (salary or employees cuts) or for the workers (strikes), but at the end of the day, having the support of each other promotes a good environment and things improve, if that doesn't exist, a company wouldn't exist in the first place.

@LadyCharlie
I know, I know that it is a "subjective" opinion, and that is respected, my point is that by "wanting" to show it as a "generalized" opinion, it implies that it is an opinion that we all "have the same opinion" but I know that : An opinion is an opinion and each of us has different opinions and two, as they say in the Nintendo Life review clauses, reviews are subjective.
I know I went overboard by saying the word 'rude', however, boring is not the "correct" thing for the track, but oh well.

Re: Pokémon GO Introduces Brand New Multiplayer Feature 'Party Play'

SakuraHaruka

@Rayquaza2510
That's why I put "to understand" in quotes, because I understand those cases, I have gone to small towns (I live in a region where there are many small towns) where they barely have a GYM or even a PokeStop and yes, it is not nice that Those who live there are limited, however, if they can play Pokémon GO, they can provide feedback to Niantic, ""among all"", to ask that more Pokestops and Gyms be allowed in those towns; If when the game started, even the semi-large cities were limited in those places, today, there are even places in those semi-large cities where they are saturated.

It is not necessary to sacrifice what makes this game interesting and unique just for these details.

Re: Pokémon GO Introduces Brand New Multiplayer Feature 'Party Play'

SakuraHaruka

""The big downside is that there's no remote play available, and Party Play is proximity-based, so you'll need to actually be out and about with others in order to form a party. It seems to be another step in Niantic's push to get people playing Pokémon GO outside rather than remotely, which caused some backlash earlier in the year...""

But isn't the purpose of this game supposed to be to go out to the area where the Pokémon is, where the Pokestop or Gym is and now, go to where your friend is? What is the purpose of having ' remote play ' if that gives "a understand", that some do not want to use the game mechanics and turn Pokémon GO like just another cell phone game...

Re: Disney Boss Reportedly Being Urged To Acquire A Major Game Publisher

SakuraHaruka

Already having Microsoft as the one that is trying to create a monopoly in the video game industry, it would be too much with another monopolistic company; In addition to appropriating almost everything that comes its way, in recent years, they have not been very well due to their controversies based on their "correctly political ideas"...

Re: Capcom Would 'Gracefully Decline' An Acquisition Offer From Microsoft

SakuraHaruka

Although there are great Microsoft games that I like (Forza Horizon, Age of Empires, Midtown Madness), from the beginning, the company has never been to my complete liking, especially due to its fame in the 90's where literally in the software for PC, there were no more options due to their, yes, their super aggressive monopolistic attitude, and now, they are literally reviving that horrible habit in the video game industry...

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Wave 6 Brings Back Four Returning Characters This Winter

SakuraHaruka

Interesting with Pauline and Peachette in the video, looks that they redesign them for this game, because, some "animation jumps" looks slightly different with MK tour, and, also, Pauline uses a Mary Jane's high heels style both artwork and MK tour, but here MK 8, she uses normal high heels

Edit:
XD with the thumbnail of video; Luigi, or he is no happy or he is challenging to the newcomers?!

Re: Nintendo Direct September 2023: Time, Where To Watch, Our Predictions

SakuraHaruka

I will only say this: forget about the supposed "leaks", forget about the rumors, just watch the Direct and enjoy the announcements, news and surprises that they prepare for ""everyone"", not just one, for ""Everyone"" Players.
And if there is not something for 'you' in this upcoming direct, there will be another and another and whatever is announced outside of the direct in the following days, just enjoy the moment! ^^

Re: Mario Kart Tour Will Receive No New Content After October's 'Battle Tour', Says Nintendo

SakuraHaruka

I don't think they are completely done adding new content to the game, rather, they will be taking a <long break> to develop something new, since literally every 15 days there was something new, and if we do the math, there were +20 new items per year (circuits, karts, characters), which would be overwhelming if they continued with more (especially for new players and those who have not get everything, or what they want most, in the game).
Also, as some say, the game will continue to more tours, then, it's not the end, it's just a hiatus while something new is planned.

Re: Charles Martinet Will No Longer Be The Voice Of Mario

SakuraHaruka

Then, 2 months to know who is (or are) the new VA for Mario & Luigi...

and please, some of you already stop blaming Chris Pratt for this, he is not even responsible for the fact that they have chosen him as the voice of Mario in the movie, and I doubt very much that he is the one who replaces Charles;
In addition, this is how some of you will be "hostile" to receive the new VA that already premiered in the Mario Wonder trailer?; From what I see, well, I hear, he's doing a good job, although of course, it's just a trailer, there's more to see, but it looks like he's trying.

We have to give the opportunity, not criticize for criticizing and not criticize for nostalgia.

Re: Charles Martinet Will No Longer Be The Voice Of Mario

SakuraHaruka

Very sad news, ..., However, personally, I already feared that it would happen sooner or later.
Despite many of us wanting Charles to be the voice of Mario forever; No one can forever be the actor or actress who represents a character loved by everyone, especially by life or events in this world; How many characters were left without their original voice, or more loved, just because their VA already could not continue in this world (or something not so sad as problems between the VA and the company) ...?

Of this, the positive side is that Charles will continue to be with Mario and Nintendo, in a new role, but he will continue.

There is no doubt that for everyone, or the vast majority, he will be the voice of Mario even after this, however, the opportunity must be given to those who follow in his footsteps, as I repeat again, this was inevitable sooner or later, the good thing is that it was not with something sadder as I mentioned paragraphs ago...

Re: Pokémon Presents August 2023: Every Announcement, Full Livestream

SakuraHaruka

Even though no new game has been announced, I personally am relieved that there is no pressure anymore that a new game is on the way and it supports the next game to have more development time as it should.

@Nintendencies Seriously, I get a horrible cringe when people keep attacking Game Freak as if they're the """only""" in the franchise problem, seriously, that's foolishness...

Re: Pokémon Presents Announced For 8th August 2023

SakuraHaruka

I find it cruel (and, well, rude) that half the world continues to blame Game Freak as if they were the ""only"" culprit, when Nintendo has the capital and support (like Monolith studios that has supported more than half of Nintendo's games) to provide it to Game Freak to develop the games well; and the Pokemon company that, since it provides the controls and the deadlines of the games, that does not make aggressive deadlines, seriously, those games need a correct development time; And of course it doesn't go away from the line that Game Freak needs to receive that support and improve its game development, it's its franchise, its ideas, teamwork is needed to improve this situation.

I would be concerned if they announce a continuation of Legends Arceus, because we repeat the decline of not allowing development times and aggressive deadlines; and in the case of a remake, that the developer in turn have more support and improve its experience.

Re: Random: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's Sunset Wilds Is Missing One Key Thing

SakuraHaruka

@vio

...mobile game that hardly anyone plays?

Classic, criticizing the game and not really knowing the situation...
Mario Kart Tour will be a despicable game for you, but it is a 'game' that continues to generate profits for Nintendo and if you have played the multiplayer, which apparently, no, you have not really played it; there are many active players at almost any time.

Re: Rumour: EA Sports FC 24 Reportedly Due To Kick Off In September

SakuraHaruka

Since that announcement that the EA game football franchise will no longer have the official FIFA license, I have wondered how it will go, since, for many people, they bought those games for the licenses and not for the game itself; And, for this reason, it is the one that has been applied to the Konami (PES) franchise, which was sometimes a better game than EA's, but because they did not have full FIFA licenses, they even ignored it...

Re: Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown Appears To Have Been Delayed (Again)

SakuraHaruka

As I mentioned on the other sister site, I suspected it since there has been no information about this game in the last few weeks, when almost all the companies had announced their news (the E3 thing without the E3, XD )

Although a delay in many cases is beneficial, I don't feel the same here, I hope that everything is fine and we have a good game next year, that it won't be long, we are already more than halfway through the current year.

Re: Microsoft CEO Says He Would "Love To Get Rid Of" Exclusives On Consoles

SakuraHaruka

For many, the issue of exclusivity seems to be unpleasant because the fact that, in this case, video games, we have to play a certain title on a single console and not on all those available on the market, makes it difficult for us economic factor, of course this is a good valid point, but!!, if we see it from another perspective, especially that of business, exclusivity is important since it is "the hook" to attract the public to the console and this does It is valid since, without thinking for a moment, if all the consoles and platforms had the same games, there would be no incentive to buy, which could be the case that only one system is the best seller and the other options are no longer They would be worth it, also, as in the case of Nintendo, the extras on the console adding to how the exclusive games are developed on that console provide that plus and the hook that, with the Switch, has catapulted Nintendo to have a good economy and to the players, to have unique and interesting games; If Nintendo made consoles like the others, without those extras, and the games were on any other console or platform, it would be another story and quite possibly not a very good one..

Re: Exclusive: RollerCoaster Tycoon Adventures Deluxe Rides Onto Switch Later This Year

SakuraHaruka

Infogrames/Atari, what have you become?..., after the Bankruptcy recovery process, you lost several IPs (Test Drive and V-Rally, some of them), and Rollercoaster tycoon was no exception, the original creator took you away (and for the right reason) the right of the first 2 games (the classic ones) and the developer who helped you in the third installment also (and also for the right reasons) snatched that 3 game from you, and from there, everything in decline... ..

Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of Today's Nintendo Direct?

SakuraHaruka

Like all Nintendo Direct, they really showed what they had to show at the moment, of course, there are still doubts with games that still do not show signs of progress, but time to time, at some point more information will be shown; but the point is, that as always it was a Good/Great Direct!

And for me, from what has been shown, Super Mario Wonder and Peach's new game my interests, new info on Pokémon and Mario Kart and some interesting new announcements like Mario RPG, Wario Ware, Detective Pikachu and more.
.

'However, it should be a bad Direct, there was no F-zero, or a racing game like NFS, and even if they put in Hot wheels and Mario kart, those don't count, so yeah, it was a boring Direct !!

...
/sarcasm

Sorry, I only showed myself how in all the Direct there, players disappointed because they did not receive any games of their interest in the presentation and therefore, they criticize that it was a bad Direct... oh dear...

Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder, A Brand New 2D Mario Game, Is Coming To Switch

SakuraHaruka

Oh wow, this is really a "New" Super Mario Bros, XD
And it looks very interesting, in a moment I thought, "Mario as Alice in Wonderland"?, And well, the name in the game really fits with those brilliant, colorful, rare and chaotic worlds; and it will arrive soon, well, this year, great!! ^^
Daisy is again playable, Wonderful!!!! (Mario Run her debut returns)

""The game will feature multiplayer and allow players to take on the role of Mario, Peach, Toad, Luigi, and Yoshi.""
No love for Daisy from you guys (@Olliemar28)?! u.u

Re: Feature: Nintendo Fans Needn't Lose Sleep Over Foamstars, Square Enix's 'Splatoon Rip-Off'

SakuraHaruka

Really this game would be a nice Splatoon's rival, however, if this game is a free to play, especially, a "game as service", then, unfortunately, this game really is doomed in any point, and not because were bad game, it's because it needed of "always online" and when that sad day arrives (when Square Enix shutting down the serves), the game will disappear (like many games that were interesting, but not the success that its company wished...), at least, that it has a offline mode and still can be played it after of close servers.

Re: Pokémon Studio Game Freak Is Partnering With Private Division On 'Project Bloom'

SakuraHaruka

@Shepdawg1 @Arkay
Although Game Freak and Nintendo were the ones who created the Pokémon company, the Pokémon company works independently of those 2 so, yes, it has its responsibility for what is done for Pokémon.

An example of what I mean, every company has a department called human resources or personal, well, we can add finance; And those departments have control and authority even with the head of the company, yes, the head of the company under the orders of one of his own departments; that's how the Pokémon company works.

Re: Switch Android Emulator Skyline Halts Development Due To "Potential Legal Risks"

SakuraHaruka

@blindsquarel
Exactly, some or many use excuses to later cover up their real reason, play new games for free and at the same time, defy the laws, and that's the problem with Nintendo.

I could bet that Nintendo would not attack emulation if people used it well and legally, but since some try their best to do what I mentioned (piracy, accept it), they just get "the wrath" of Nintendo and as we know how it is Nintendo, they don't care if they damage up to preservation in order to eliminate their main problem.

Re: Video: Super Mario Bros. Movie 'Princess Peach Training Course' Clip Released

SakuraHaruka

New meme:

Nintendo: New super Mario game, Mario will save the day with new mechanics and etc., and rescue to the Princess Peach.

Fans: Again Peach is the damsel in disgrace?, Mario doesn't tired rescue to Peach again and again?

Nintendo & Hollywood: new Mario movie, The Princess Peach, as ruler of Mushroom kingdom, is energetic and she know to defend.

Fans: She doesn't be the damsel in disgrace?, Is all about to her!!, This movie is progressive!!

Seriously?!!

Re: Video: Super Mario Bros. Movie 'Princess Peach Training Course' Clip Released

SakuraHaruka

Oh well, critics being critical, it's not news...

Many have forgotten that Peach is a playable character in some games and that due to her abilities, they make her ideal for levels that even with Mario himself get very complicated, did someone mention Champions Road from Mario 3D World?
Also, in Super Princess Peach she showed that she is not always the damsel in disgrace and that she ends up being the heroine of the day and of her own kingdom, does anyone remember?

but hey, the important thing is to criticize that to see enjoy the film and now with that "progressive" thing, now it is to throw hate as God intended...
oh dear...

if you want to "suffer" looking for some imperfection in the film, go ahead, while
I'll go see the movie as it should be, enjoying it ^^

Re: The Pokémon Company Is Looking To Hire Someone With NFT Knowledge

SakuraHaruka

@Nintendo
@GameFreak

We know that this company (The Pokemon company) was born from you with the purpose of supporting you in the control and distribution of everything related to the IP of Pokémon, and that more than obvious, it is only an "Administrative" Company.
However, in recent years, instead of supporting them in the positive, they have really put you in a position that you literally "pay the piper", and it is not fair, and above all, affect the image of the franchise!!
It is already necessary that you take action on the matter!!!

*it would be good to put this in the feedback from Nintendo and Game Freak

Re: Japanese Charts: Metroid Prime Remastered Debuts In Top Ten While Kirby Keeps Dominating

@mariomaster96

Believe me, not for nothing, I always commented why so much negativity and hostile attitudes......;
And yes, also, I am not against criticism, negative criticism, but constructive and without annoying; However, as you see, it is everything, ALL the time...... Oh well...

The famous phrase of Professor Oak in games is for me an example to follow in these cases:
"There is a time and place for everything, but not now"

Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Version 1.2.0 Bug Supposedly Corrupting Save Files

SakuraHaruka

@Vil

yeah, the Pokémon company was born from them in order to help Nintendo and Game Freak with the management of the franchise, however, it is a company with its "own mind", and therefore, its affairs should not interfere with the others 3 for fluency.

Let's say an example, you are an employee and your brother is your boss in the same company, outside you can even enjoy parties, but at job, he is your boss, and you know what that means, something similar with relationships between Pokemon company, Game Freak and Nintendo.
