Re: Japanese Charts: Ring Fit Adventure Surpasses One Million Sales, Nintendo Takes Entire Top Ten

@playstation_king Playstation numbers are far from bad in Japan. When it first hits I doubt they will be able to sustain constant numbers but to my knowledge every Playstation system has sold over 10 million in Japan. Ever now when games are released same day on Switch and Playstation 4 Sony usually ends up beating out Switch in copies sold. Never by a ton but it shows Japan has never left Sony.

Re: Want Star Fox On Switch? Astrodogs Might Be The Next Best Thing For Now

Um, Star Fox is on the Switch?! Might not be a Nintendo made game but I think many would argue in some ways Starlink is better then the last 2 to 3 Starfox games.

Oh and can we all just agree there was never a stand alone Starfox racing game. Isn't it rather odd that Starlink had a grandprix racing mode added as dlc. I'm pretty sure those saying there was a racing game just assumed it was Nintendo making it or outsourcing it.

Re: Feature: How Nintendo And A Band Of Teenage High Score Obsessives Created The Idea Of The Pro Gamer

@SwitchVogel I can actually relate to that. When I first got FX2 on the Wii U I was obsessed with getting first place on every table. I enjoyed pinball so much and found out I was actually good at it so I started with my favorite tables and went from there. Took me about a year to get just over half of the first place scores but then I started to get burnt out. Checking daily to see if anyone had taken one of my scores and then having to get some back became a chore and not so fun.

It got to the point where I was nearly playing the tables to achieve high scores and not play the tables for fun. I would quickly learn what to do to score the highest I could and just continue to spam that over and over again and not play the table the way it was intended. I eventually burned out to the point I didn't want to play pinball for a good long while. Games would last 5 to 10 hours and it felt more like a job to me then a game.

Sorry for that rant as what you said made me think of my own experiences. At some point you lose what you loved about playing certain games just like you said.

Re: 2K Says It's Eager To Release More Games On The Nintendo Switch

I wish they would just go the full price and use a bigger cart for release. I would gladly pay $60 for any of these collections if all or most were on the cart. I'm still getting them all just not right away. No way I can justify spending $150 on games when some will just sit there till I get to them. They almost said we know you will pick up one of these and maybe the others down the road on a sale. If I'm not picking them up in a months time I'm for sure waiting on a sale.
