Re: Mario Kart World "Paid DLC" Would Be A Big No-No, According To Ex-Nintendo Duo

@GrailUK switch 3? Sweet summerchild we are already on switch 4 pro.
On a more serous note it's clickbait and it works. There are so many fear mongering takes on yohtube that I refuse to click on the vids out of principle. Enough is enough. The whole discourse around the switch 2 is dominated by misinformation fear mongering and just in general negativity, that Im gonna stay away from such articles. Let me make up my mind come launch. You wanna pre order? Do it. You dont wanna pre order? Dont do it. Wanna get it later? Sure. You dont wanna get it all? Also fine. But this whole trying to convince the other side is getting tiresome.

Re: Nintendo Understands Switch Owners May Not Be "Ready To Jump To Switch 2"

I haven't "upgraded" to the OLED version. I have a huge backlog and with the switch 1 joycons being as flimsy as they are, I'm gonna get the switch 2 mario kart bundle at launch. Already preorder via a big tech retsiler here as they get more copies. Now I've already gotten an email a few days ago that informed that the supplier may ship it later 17th at the latest. Im not in a hurry per se but I see it as future prooving my swit h library aswell as getting the switch 2 exclusives that I want.

Re: The Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller - All New Features Revealed

@andyg1412 It's not just about the gamecube games. Racing games are much better with analogue triggers. Just imagine mario kart but you can control your speed. You know like any other racing game? Its such a small thing but no nintendo gotta nintendo. This is just pathetic on their part. Every other console has analogue triggers. Mostnpc pads have annalogue triggers. Switch 2 the "improved" console in the year 2025? No analogue triggers .... you expect me.to cough up almost 500chf but give me a console thats basically the same as my current switch? Yeah no...the more I hear an think about the switch 2 the less excited I am for it.

Re: Switch 2 Games Cost A Bit More Than You're Probably Expecting

Simu001

@Oracles_fanboi its insane, absolutely ridiculous at this point gaming is a luxury. No more games for all. No wonder key resellers are flourishing when you can't afford the hobby from the source. Thank god my backlof of switch games is huge so I'm probably gonna get the console. But man this is bitter. Oh and the upgrade cost for each switch game to get switch 2 benefits? Idk....😪

Re: Nintendo Direct March 2025 - Every Announcement, Game Reveal, Trailer

I know its my fault for expecting metroid prime 2 and 3. It's also my fault for expecting the Zehlda HD ports "confirmed" by jeff grubb way back in the day. "Oh they are definitely coming you guys believe me". Great job you wannabe insider. As for the direct imo completely forgettable. Bring on the switch 2 direct.

Re: Ex-Nintendo Duo Unsure Mario Kart 9 Will Be An Instant "Slam Dunk" For Switch 2

Simu001

@SalvorHardin Im afraid that this'll be the route nintendo will go down harder with switch 2. We've had several examples of this during the switch 1 era sadly. I hope I'm wrong but who knows. I just miss the days of games that stand aloen without a dlc but I'm aware these days are long gone. At least that's what it feels like to me. Now enough doom and gloom, I look foward to the switch 2 and what outstanding experiences Nintendo will deliver.

Zelda wind waker HD and twilight princess HD? This time? Please? NINTENDO? Ok thx bye 😊😊😊. In all seriousness though I'm looking forward to this direct let's see what they've been cooking.

Edit: Also I gotta say those new direct banners with the countdown are really really nice. Please keep them 😊

Re: Sega President Shuji Utsumi On Sonic The Hedgehog’s Next Major Outing

@Elbow Frontier was almost great. But the forced 2d sections killed it for me especially on the 3rd Island. Run 5 meters boom 2d. Run another 5 meters boom 2d. It was so bad for me that I quit the game there. So frustrating. Why is it so hard to look at what adventure 2 did and refine that? Even sonic 06 from a gameplay standpoint felt like the adventure games. Remaster that and I bet poeple would like it. As for the boost formula games. Unleashed is still the best in that regard imo. It feels like for evedy step foward they take, they take 3 steps back. Let's hope this new game is focused in its gameplay. Stop reusing old assets and stages.

Re: Rumour: One Of Kirby's 3DS Titles Will Return Next Year, It's Claimed

Simu001

C'mon where are twilight princess HD and Wind Waker HD on switch? So many "insiders claimed they are ready to be released amd what did we get?..... nada, nothing, zero. We get all sorts of ports but not the ones that would sell like hotcakes, instead we got skyward sword which wasnt loved as much. I bet metroid prime 2 and 3 will also never see a switch release. The only hope I have is pikmin since I never expected 1 and 2 to get a switch release

Re: Tales Of Kenzera Director Slams Publishers' Desire To Create "The Next Fortnite"

Simu001

I thi k the problem is more nuanced than just money. Artful games often don't sell well since many people write them off as artsy fartsy. Take the witness for example or gris or pentiment. Pentiment loos fantastic but the game simply didn't do it for me and I feel alot of people feel like this. Games live and die ny their gameplay and that is hard to nail when the tastes vary so much between your audience. Live service even tough we can hate it all we want seems to work in driving numbers. Unless we talk about concord.....or suicide squad....

Re: Switch Online's Expansion Pack Promises "Excitement" In 2025

Simu001

@Serpenterror I hate that they took away the virtual console. So much potential for improvement was lost. Now its let us drip feed you 2 or 3 games when we feel like it. Honestly this subscription craze is starting to wear on me more on more. Can't wait for next gen when every game is rental only. I'm being hyperbolic here but it feels like that's where we are headed.

@Mz3player Welcome to the modern way of reporting. Oh perosn said so on twitter or X or whatever it's called. I don't have twitter for various reasons so when I read the source is a tweet it makes me roll my eyes. Also I cant look at mist soufces since I either need to make an account on twitter or it simply says oooops something went wrong. Maybe we can use the NL comment sections as sources next? Atleast those can be read without making an account
