Sidon_Zora_King

I remember playing the original so much with my mam and brother.
I remember being in awe when it was revealed that plankton (?) was the mystery rider.
In saying that i probably wouldnt pick this up despite the nostalgia.

I've thought about importing games from america before. But it can be quite expensive.

Is Amazon the way to go when importing from that side of the planet?

Also really crappy decision on capcoms part.
I feel quite bitter when stuff like this happens; often passing on purchasing the digital versions with the intent of someday importing a physical copy.

@Richard_Atkinson I would imagine it to be very different. Hopefully in many positive ways.
I go to MNN for the quick turnaround of conscise and varied articles, a lot of smaller stories are reported there but not here.
I come here for the detailed articles, personality and the comment section which is far better in terms of opinion and humour.
Two very different sites, and i imagine its very different behind the scenes.
Congrats on the new-ish gig lol

@Richard_Atkinson i see your word count has increased since mynintendonews lol

@bratzdoll @gloom the majority of the people criticising your lust for attention and segregation of the gay community are gay, not why dont we have straight pride people.
You are segregating the community by saying an event is only for gay people. The entire ethos of the lgbtqi community is inclusiveness. So saying something is a gay only event goes against the community.
The point is you dont have to be gay to watch eurovision, and you dont have to like eurovision if you're gay.
Your narrowminded conventions achieve nothing but an archaic stereotype.

@Blizzia i think your comment is very obtuse.
The majority of the audience that watch eurovision don't hold english as their first language.
Also some music can transcend the barriers of language. You don't need to understand the lyrics to hear the emotional intent behind a song

@Richard_Atkinson i know right. Imagine someone labelled a post a straight-only event 😅 the uproar.

Reminds me of "Azure Dreams" from the game design, monster fusion elements, the monsters following, the interface, the monster aesthetic.
Im not a massive fan of how the monsters look in this

Looks beautiful

Sidon for smash please. He can shout super encouraging things at me to make me feel warm and fuzzy 😅

I'd love to see Quote from cave story. Bomberman Rayman and crash bandicoot would be cool but i wouldn't be upset without any of them.

Urbosa please and a Rito/zora kid because they are adorable.

I main springman, so springman please.
Annnnd this list won't happen.

Im not interested in this....but i just watched the new trailer for the pokemon movie....now that was interesting 😅

Awessssseome

My only comment on this is:

How ridiculous are those prices for a digital copy of A.O.T.
Especially the €110 for extra outfits lmao

I love attack on titan but I'm not paying those prices for ANY GAME ever.

I've been frequently playing this game with people in college at lunch time and my days it is so much fun.

These are people who were surprised by my adoration for nintendo; they are ps4, xbox and pc gamers with a less than positive view of Nintendo and its franchises.

They all love it. It's great competitive fun that is easy enough to pick up and relatively hard to master.

Also to the people suggesting this game was a sales flop, it's a new ip that's garnered over 1.6 million sales in approximately 7 - 8 months. I'm pretty sure Nintendo would be happy with that. I'm impressed.

I ordered this off amazon two days ago. Personally i cant wait to play it

@Octane i was thinking the same thing.

Amiibo weren't exactly the original toys to life/collectible figurines in the market like the sarcasm in this article suggests.

Nintendo LABO is such an amazing concept to me.
I don't have kids. But i can appreciate how fun this would be to build, and just think of how educational and inspiring this could be for young children.
There's so much more technology and engineering prowess at play in every kit; than just cardboard! 😅
I'm so impressed at how the IR camera reads and processes the piano key presses.
The robot build looks insane, it's super geeky. I love it. Reminds me of the kids from stranger things sporting ghostbusters gear. I imagine kids like them would love this.

@thesilverbrick there's new content. It's not simply the japanese game being localized.

This makes me really sad but it was expected.

I really love the characters in breath of the wild - Sidon, the cute lil sheikah (Impa and her sis), all the cute lil baby goron, zora and rito. And Especially all the female protagonists , they were bad*ss. Mipha, Zelda, Urbosa, Riju; they all fought for what they believed in, some gave their lives.

I'm not ready to let go of those characters. But i feel i have projected a lot more emotion and depth to the story and characters than was actually given 😅

I would love to see more of Urbosa. The maternal role she took in watching over Zelda was quiet special and watching her fight in one of the memory scenes really left me wanting more.

Anyways hopefully its not the end to such a beautiful cast.

Here's hoping Nintendo has an impressive line up kicking off in January to keep up this amazing momentum

Yesssss. One of my favourite animes

I need to watch everyvepisode of father ted for the nth time now 😅

@thesilverbrick wow that's crazy 😅

The price is far too high for what is a game of chance.

I love when nintendo ventures into fashion/ accessories but these i will stay away from.....maybe just one 😅

Im not liking this trend....
NBA
WWE
Doom
And now this, L.A Noire....

So not only are all these games expensive and in some cases more expensive on switch, but the developers also expect the consumer to buy an add on in the form of an SD card to play their games.
I don't tolerate the "my god SD cards are so cheap these days" argument.

First of all when i buy physical i expect 90% of the game to be on the cart ( I know updates are a thing) and for it to be playable out of the packaging.

Secondly if this trend continues it won't be long before people have to buy 2/3 SD cards to fit all their 3rd party games on even when they buy physical iterations.

Finally there's no compensation or gesture in the price point of the software to entice the consumer into being a little bit more understanding. Nope.....they'll charge 60 euros and also tell us to buy an SD card so we can BEGIN their game.....crazy

Next year will mark a decade since city folk released......
I need animal crossing on the switch soooo bad. But i want it to reinvent itself, go big.

Well done Nintendo

@roadrunner343 He's parodying a certain someone....rather effectively.

Ittle dew was really fun.

The presentation of Ittle Dew 2 looks so much better, the enemies look more varied and more of a challenge.
Visually it seems like a massive improvement on what was already a good game.
€30 though is just too expensive from my perspective.
A lot of the eshop games seem overpriced to me.

@Spoony_Tech , @SLIGEACH_EIRE has more than likely finally given in to purchasing a switch.

He consequentially lives in his basement fumbling with his joy cons like the rest of us. Deleting and modifying hateful switch comments long past, consumed by regret. He is a joy-con boy now.

That's what my friend's pet gold fishes uncle who works at nintendo told my co-worker anyhow.

I think "save me Mr Tako" looks like so much fun, the music is beautiful to me.

"Owlboy" visually, is a gorgeous game, it makes me want to work harder and dedicate more attention to drawing so i can someday have the same skill and understanding to create something so pretty. Imagine how hard they work.

I gave my third choice to worms because nostalgia. Although i somehow doubt my brother would be interested in revisiting this with me.

@gcunit i know that but everything i had was worth gold, that i needed ....i didnt plan on fainting on the way to my shipping box 😅

Tip number one don't go to the beach with full pockets....i had no room for the fishing rod so i went "home" to empty them, ran out of energy, slept....woke up and it was gone.
I'll never fish in this game out of spite 😅

@SLIGEACH_EIRE I agree (about being honest and about your own caution)

Sligeach level of honesty/negativity 😅

The nostalgia for this one is real.

I used to love playing Worms with my brother growing up through the naughties, back before online was a thing in our house (we came late to the digital age).
Even the 3D games were fun for us, i can still remember all the sounds the weapons and worms would make as they were blown off course into the ocean/to oblivion.

I'm 21 now and I'll definetely pick this up, even to subtly reminisce of the carefree good ol'days......you would swear i became 60 while composing this post 😅

Hopefully they have held stock for splatoons launch. If the shortages permit for such a major launch in japan, Nintendo will have made a serious error!

Also i know there's credence behind the stock shortages excuse but I'm really getting tired of hearing it.

Fair play to 2ds for those sales.

P.s currently going to pick up Splatoon. The hype is real 😍😍😍

Picked it up. First digital purchase for my switch

@Agent721 I'm on nintendo life everyday yet i want that back pack because it looks awesome imo. And I'm a 21 year old dude 😅 i like my fashion especially with a touch of nintendo.

I'd happily add that bag to my uniqlo tees and vans pack

Im working which sucks. I'm hoping to stay spoiler free until i get home so i can be just as surprised / disappointed as everyone else 😅

I hope not.....

Arms and pokken tournament are releasing within months of each other.

Even announcing smash bros would be overkill for the genre imo

I'm sorry but i love how this game looks 😅 i was quietly and ashamedly optimistic. I can't wait to see more.

@DavyP @sligeach_eire gives his opinion like everybody else. Granted he can be negative (it's perfectly acceptable to express disappointment with nintendo, yet still love the brand), but he's never personal. Grow up.
The irony of you saying kids read news here when you just referenced an x rated experience sligeach may or may not have had with a nun.
Trolls belong under bridges with limited internet access....go home.

I am absolutely in love with this game.

I'm ok with the shrine and dungeon set up (divine beasts) but more of a good thing can't be bad.
I would like more enemy variations, and more diverse final bosses. The bosses (bigger enemies) out in the field are epic but once you figure them out they're pretty straight forward to best time and time again. And the ganon phantoms are amazing but from an aesthetic standpoint are pretty similar.

My biggest gripe was the towns/villages. Everyone of them is beautiful and unique. I just wanted more and even a couple of larger settlements. I was also disappointed that the Yiga clan didn't have their own village per say, offering something similiar to infiltrating Gerudo town incognito because the entire concept of the yiga clan is really interesting, ganon has affiliates/allies that aren't just monsters, that's pretty cool, i think it should have been expanded on/ had more depth/backstory.
Everytime i visit hyrule castle town i think of how amazing that town would have been to explore and tbh just look at, i get that's the point, nintendo want you to feel the scale of what was lost, but it made me want for a large settlement/resistance even more.

I might try this. I loved the test punch. I went into it expecting the game to be very repetitive and short lived. I was honestly surprised at it's ability to hold my attention and at how fun it was to play. I went from the no camp to potentially day one. Definetly won't be using motion controls though, it's less tactical.

@Azooooz you forgot the obligatory hype train pic...i'd insert one here but i have no idea how. For now i will "chu chu" with you

I can't believe it's already that time of year again.
I can't wait to see the design and props on their floorspace.
A focus on games launching in 2017 doesn't necessarily mean they won't mention a couple of games launching next year.
Personally i'm hoping for a few more announcements for games launching this year...splatoon 2 and Mario simply won't be enough for me.
Fingers crossed for a pikmin 4 and animal crossing announcements.
Metroid or F-zero, something different than the usual

Those rewards are simply awful. Nintendo is consistent alright. Consistently able to disappoint me, when it comes to servicing long term loyal fans/customers. They don't share the same loyalty their fans do for them, they are a business afterall.

I find it really bemusing that nintendo are constantly messing up the obvious, straight forward and small things that a large international company simply should not mess up. From bad pricing (i'm looking at you eshop), to stock shortages (nes mini...i understand they were being cautious with switch), to a shoddy loyalty program, to marketing (bad E3s, disappointing nintendo directs, literally zero advertising for prior hardware), to bad uncessary games....who thought Ac-amiibo festival was a good idea....and allowing unique IPs to die. (Granted they have improved in some of those departments recently)

I do love nintendo but some days i just feel like "ok that's enough internet for today" when i read stuff like this and how lazy and uptight they can be :/

I'm not a basketball fan, or sports game fan by any means.
The quirky visuals piqued my interest.
But unfortunately with a review like that and a massive mode, such as online matches missing just from the switch version i am going to have to say my "purchase is pending" indefinetly.
Online is also 1vs1 (+Ai) as opposed to 2vs2 which is disappointing

@erv Same. I've put in 80 hours plus. Still have to face two divine beasts. But i'm sure if i went to face Ganon i would win at this stage. The only reason i haven't is because i don't want to "finish" the game yet.
The thoughts of waiting at least another half decade for the next zelda installment is daunting hopefully the New Dlc campaign will be substantial.

Alien invasion maybe? That concept art was extremely random but witty. Just goes to show the ideas that get thrown around at concept meetings, nothing is off limits. Maybe that will be the dlc 😅
