If only this were Fez II

Umm... that tweet is a very understandable reason to fire someone. It implies incompetence, directly attacks other employees and makes Nintendo look bad. If the contractor thinks it wasn't that and it was actually something else. All that shows is that Nintendo had MULTIPLE reasons to fire them

@PineappleLake I do somewhat agree about the UI in that it outright tells you if items can't be combined or used with things. I mean... I guess people might try combining all their items and things anyway when they get stuck but I don't think it needed the "no" symbol. That could have appeared AFTER you tried to do the thing. Plus I miss Guybrush saying "that won't work" and "I can't put those things together"

@Jeff2sayshi Curse is a fantastic game and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It cemented the voice actors, it introduced Murray. It is FAR from hated

@Daggot do you not like Curse? Tales? There really was only one "bad" game in the series and that was Escape.

@WoomyNNYes yeah I don't know... medium gives a smoother experience though it's not necessary for this kind of game so I set it to high.

INSTEAD they should have given attention to the hidden away "writer's cut" option. THAT being turned off is more an issue than the graphics.

I also don't know why this review is suggesting that they're ripping on Curse with the statue thing... and in fact the only game with a multi page spread in the scrapbook is the first game. I don't like the negative way this review begins at all. Even Escape is treated with a modicum of respect in the scrapbook. Like, negative points about the game sure but to suggest the game is hating on its predecessors? It's absolute nonsense.

Easier just to put it in the DMZ. I genuinely don't think it's an issue personally. They'd need access to your network and then if they DID manage to gain access, why would they focus on a games console of all things? Should be fine if you live in remote areas with a secure network.

It's a pun on tiers I thought? Since it shows all these different platforms/levels. Does this work in Japanese anyone?

@gcunit yes 🥺

@gcunit please tell me that was an intentional Compare the Market reference...

Woah! And there I was thinking I knew everything by this point!

Gremlins 2: The New Batch Zero please

I don't like how LeChuck sounds like he's going through puberty

Did people even like Sonic Battle?

@SalvorHardin I like to hate on Dusk because the fans go wild

Really first person shooters haven't impressed me in years. Doom was probably my favourite recent one. Doom Eternal wasn't as good. I just find guns in video games a bit lazy and boring

@VoodooTrumpet it's fine I guess. Problem is they're trying to be like Hotline Miami but Hotline Miami's designer was already well established in the indie circuit. Well... I think they're trying to be like it, maybe all Swedish video games look like this haha

It's kind of hard these days to be an indie developer because the market is becoming oversaturated. You kind of have to do a bit more than "how about a procedurally generated Doom game". Particularly when there are so many Doom clones as it is

Remember that Dusk game that looks like ass but everyone raved about until it released and now no one talks about it? Me either...

@Fizza poopy poopy fart fart

@Dizzymario ahh thanks for the info. I was looking at outdated information. Still, someone should put all this information together if they haven't already!

@thinkhector I think people were mostly angry at the DLC and price and then when it had bugs too people lost their s***

Huh... so according to the banner image leak we had a while back the other DS track is Delfino Square. No Luigi's Mansion? Maybe they didn't like the moving trees...

I'm surprised this DLC of returning courses is actually just as much new stuff and tour stuff. Everyone thought they'd be able to fit in pretty much every retro track.

Between the banner leak, this, and the two tracks hinted at in coconut mall we can pretty much work out all the retro tracks now (well that is assuming they don't change their minds about tracks, which is very possible)

Edit: ohhh, no airship either... I thought that was a 3DS track... boooo. Maybe there was too much in that track, the bullet bills and moles etc. maybe it's one of the mystery tracks but they're undecided because they need to make sure the mario kart 8 CPU's can navigate the tracks... I hope that's what's happening and I hope they pull it off!

Games like this are why I love video games (well... that's my opinion until I actually play it)

End of an era, the last FIFA game made by EA. Could be a good thing for Switch owners... if we're lucky

If a company pays a hacker millions then they're either stupid or doing some seriously illegal dodgy sh*t themselves

Mario's dreamt of pasta since Super Mario 64

@WoomyNNYes I forgot that was coming out

@kingbk an all star Disney racer would be cool. They have SO much stuff now. Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Chip n Dale, Scrooge McDuck, Wolverine, Cyclops, Deadpool, Fry, Bender, Leela, The Simpsons, Pixar characters, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers etc etc realised there was too many to keep listing haha

Absolutely absurd that Sky isn't on this list

Literally the only thing potentially wrong with the art style is the Link's Awakening eyes he has. Which is a look Guybrush has had in both the original two games and also when he was made young at the end of Curse. This would be a relatively easy fix if they do decide to change it but I do think this reaction is reminiscent of when people saw Wind Waker for the first time.

It's definitely a Wind Waker situation rather than a Sonic movie reaction so I hope they stick to their guns. But either way I'm sure Rex will do what he thinks is best.

Actually I'm pretty sure this was my reaction when I saw Curse's art style for the first time. And that game turned out fantastic. Really it's that beautiful box art of the original games that's to blame for all this. It all goes back to Steve Purcell... damn him

@stereobread I guess they're just referring to how this is meant to be Gilbert's Monkey Island 3 but this one is clearly set after the others as it has Murray and even shows a picture of Elaine fighting Morgan from Tales.

I'd be happy with a re-release of the first three games. Tales would be cool if they combine it into one adventure, and bring back the Earl Boen chapter 1 redub that weirdly only exists in the physical copies of the game

Ooh! It's a video? I was wondering why the stream hadn't gone up yet

Kind of reluctant to buy expansion passes when Nintendo could include it in the NSO subscription I'm already paying for at the drop of a hat

@OrtadragoonX that's what I'm saying, they sound like Jackson tracks, as opposed to sounding like the other Sonic games. Now it's more consistent

I think they sound much better. More like Sonic tracks. The old tracks sounded like they belong in a different game.

People get a bit too attached to things sometimes. Same goes for Super Meat Boy, the new tracks by Ridiculon are actually great. Different but great

@Serpenterror this one was actually made by the same guys as shredder's revenge. Surprised nintendolife ignored it

@Ontrevant not magic, he made it with Florian who was the sole programmer... why do you keep writing stuff without checking the facts? You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.

Most of the things in your other post make ZERO sense. "Everyone begged him to stop adding them" what?! Not only is that completely incorrect but you say there were three updates and there were in fact FIVE booster packs. And what glitches and bugs are you specifically referring to that remained unfixed for "five" years?! Not only are there none of significance but it was actually less than three years between the last Afterbirth+ update and Repentance. I do not recall any hideous game breaking bugs that needed to be fixed in that time.

And finally it's not McMillan it's McMillen, learn the guy's name at least. Not a programmer, he's the designer.

T-Speed is right, it's been on sale before, quite a few times

@Ontrevant he ABSOLUTELY is NOT a programmer. Check it and read back your own message to yourself

@Ontrevant I mean he's just the artist and designer... seems silly to blame him for bugs

@Goat_FromBOTW just so long as we stay on topic. And don't resort to insults... we'll be fine.

You are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity. Farewell!

@DarkTron the trailer looks to be the pc version. The eshop screenshots clearly show button controls so it's not as rushed as it makes out. Not sure why they decided on using pc footage for the console trailer but I'd hold off on the hate until it's actually out and we can see how it plays

@Ontrevant yes it is

Shame Minecraft DLC basically isn't playable on the switch due to the stupid 2GB save storage limits...

@Pillowpants it's still being updated. They haven't stopped adding content since its release. And even more DLC recently came out for it. Why reduce the price when people are still buying it?

@SteamEngenius to be fair, Isaac actually is still worth full price.

@Tom-Massey the "sack" is actually a golf bag I believe!

@BloodNinja Casey Jones uses a plethora of sports equipment including but not limited to golf clubs and hockey sticks

It is inaccurate to say Tribute Games are responsible for the Scott Pilgrim game. That's like saying Playtonic are responsible for Banjo Kazooie. It's simply not true.

@Beaucine yeah, mostly rare titles. There are plenty but none made it to the virtual console either. I really just hope for diddy kong racing. I hope there's not an issue with conker being in that game. Conker itself would be great too but I'm not sure how they'd handle that as a mature title
