Re: Random: Nintendo Stock Rises By 4% An Hour Before Reggie Announces Retirement

Snakesglowcaps

One thing that Reggie was a bit notorious for in my eyes was very underwhelming announcements. Perhaps the investors think that him retiring is a good thing that opens the door to someone who isn’t so prone to holding their cards so close to the chest. The Cranky Kong announcement is one particular example and honestly I think Nintendo dropped the ball at the game awards with their Joker reveal. Nintendo should start to get people more hyped for the product with some exciting announcements instead of the buzz followed by disappointment all the time.

Re: Review: Observer - An Ambitious Cyberpunk Horror That Overcomes Its Faults To Provide Solid Scares

@JasmineDragon I think some people have acknowledged some very blatant issues with this title. I also think that the intent is only to provide more varied information so that our fellow Nintendo fans can make a more educated decision. Some people are extremely sensitive to bad/frequent frame drops and it could tremendously impact their enjoyment. I will not sthu because if anyone did just a bit more searching of these “glowing” reviews you’d see that the issues are brought up frequently, something I don’t think NL did a well enough job of talking about. Trust me I have always enjoyed Nintendo life because I feel they’re one of the most trust worthy and morale sites around, but that being said they did do tons of preview and ads on this game, there is a chance that even if they didn’t intend too they went easy on the flaws.

@Mqblank I was just saying this about their Observer preview which was quite favourable and ads are everywhere on NL. People jumped on me for it but Observer had some serious issues on xbox one and I’d hate for NL to avoid talking about them because of ad revenue. My biggest hope is they actually polished the switch version more cause underneath the issues is a great game.

Re: Hands On: Hacking Into The Cyberpunk World of Observer On Switch

@JasmineDragon that is genuinely surprising. It plays awfully on Xbox one x. I wish I could provide some kind of proof of that. Perhaps it’s a sloppy one x patch? Regardless I could always be wrong and they could have fixed it for Switch which is definitely what I’m hoping because it’s a cool game under the technical flaws. But if it’s a straight port I think the frame rate should be mentioned

Buyer beware. Nintendolife has up ads for this game all over. I’ve played it on Xbox one, and while intriguing it is plagued with technical performance issues. Harsh frame rate drops, pop in, bad textures, and horrible frame pacing. They all work together to make the game extremely difficult to enjoy. Wait for a proper review and cross reference it with sites that might not have as much stake in giving it a favourable review.

Re: Switch Release Would Take Priority If Mobile Game Alien: Blackout Ever Gets Ported To Consoles

Snakesglowcaps

This game has been getting so much hate that Im rooting for it. I love the character and that it’s an extension of Isolation. Honestly Aliens 3 was one of my favourite Aliens movies and the whole ending was basically a cat and mouse herding of the Alien and it’s quite tense. They may be able to capture that with a decent set of headphones, I’m imagining that when you mess up you have to watch gory deaths of the crew or even Amanda if you mess up badly.

Re: Nintendo's Share Price Plummets In Response To E3 Direct

Snakesglowcaps

Nintendo knows what they should be doing but they refuse to play ball. I hope that now that their investors have spoken they’ll learn their lessons and promptly release another direct soon. They also should try to announce something during treehouse today. Metroid should have been shown, and at least a logo for Animal Crossing. Also it would have been a great opportunity to launch a Konami MGS compilation alongside Snakes reveal. I was really expecting a new 2DS Zelda as well and was really sad they couldn’t even slap one together. WHY DID I BUY A 2DS!? Anyways not a major setback but definitely a setback.
