@Heavyarms55 Nintendo choose to make it that way.
Homebrew could be separate from piracy, but Nintendo decided against that. For an example see how apples iphone dev program works.

@Dringo No one said that. You are hallucinating. please take your medicine.
70 years is not generous, you lunatic. 28 years total was quite generous.

@Dringo You should remember to take your medication.

I hope we see Prime 4 soon. I preordered when it was first announced.

@westman98 I played it on PS3 and PC. Most of the bugs were in both, just worse on PS3.

@westman98 Quality is exactly what bugs aren't.
If you bought a table with one leg shorter than the other, a bug, would you think it was a high quality table?

@BlackenedHalo I am glad you like it. Personally the changes are too jarring.

A fan on the outside of a plastic case?
Fools and their money....

I am throwing money at the screen but nothing is happening!

@-Juice- Yes, it is. But why make them look so different?

Too bad they changed the way they look at the same time.
That's the problem with these projects, instead of a straight upgrade we get every character looking wrong.

@westman98 a game that can bloat it's own save file until you can't load it, isn't poorly made?

I love bugthesda games, but they are called bugthesda for a reason. Skyrim has been released about 100 time and there are still bugs there from the first release.

So they want you to pay to not play the game, that always says a lot about what someone thinks of their own game.

So it's very old, costs your kids money but is free for you and is racist?

@mesome713 People would buy those remastered as well.
People like to do the things they have done in the past. Nostalgia and revisiting previously enjoyed experiences are pretty much part of the human condition.

@Krambo42 The LAN play is interesting, because my friends are mostly techy, so setting up some ipsec tunnels on our routers and playing each other over the internet is something we might do.

@TheFullAndy His opinions are the group think of a particular set of internet losers. It used to be these guys were separated and couldn't find similar people. This meant they either self isolated or improved themselves. Now they find similarly damaged people and pretend it's some kind of reasonable culture. It's really pathetic.

I love the butthurt comments from the supposedly manly men.
What a bunch of whiny little kids, oh noes someone took down some marketing garbage. You are complaining that you lost out on advertising.

What a bunch of losers.

$15 and nothing new added?
That's a bit much. Might still get it, but will grumble while doing so.

@Jokerwolf Go look it up yourself. It's not going to compare favorably to a PS4 much less the pro.

@Jokerwolf If you are going to troll at least put in some effort.

@Dringo that's literally culture. You are saying that no ideas shall ever become part of the common culture. You would have us paying a license to Uggs descendants for the wheel.

@Deltath Remakes are not new games. If you want to argue reboots are, that's fine. I didn't say reboots. I said remakes which includes remasters.
Ports are fine, but they aren't new games.

I want some new games, why is that so much to ask?
If I want to play old games, Ican just play old games.

Nintendo releases plenty of shovelware even if they didn't make it, look at any of their mobile stuff. Look at the online store.

New games or just more ports, shovelware and remakes?

@Cosats What's childish is not understand that not everyone agrees on copyright lengths.
The first copyright law in the USA for example is from 1790, it was for 14 years and could be extended another 14 years. Using that standard the original Mario games would no longer be protected.

To suggest disagreeing with extending copyright into infinity is dangerous is ludicrous.

Someone needs to tell Nintendo about the Streisand effect.

Taking information off the internet is about like trying to make water not wet.

I liked playing remasters at first, but now I am sick of them.

Either port the game as it was and sell it super cheap, or give me a new game.

@westman98 That's not this article though. This is about bringing nintendo titles to mobile as they are and having subscriptions. Not making mobile games.

@RPGamer So you would still have your old games, which is what I meant. sorry for being unclear.

@westman98 I have to disagree. Anyone who wants to play those now is using an emulator and a gamepad or suffering for not.

The general non-gaming public isn't ever going to play classic nintendo games, they are way too hard.

@westman98 Why would the inputs be on the phone?
Again, if you are porting games that need a controller, you sell a controller.

This is how all these other services work. Look at google stadia.

@RPGamer That wouldn't impact you existing game library. I have already canceled one streaming service and netflix might be next. If I can't count on the stuff I want being on them, I might as well just go back to buying disks and renting them.

@westman98
I was talking about porting classic games, not garbage mobile games.

My phone is a normal size. A DS display is tiny.

DS layout would be simple, phone in portrait, top half top display, bottom half bottom display.

Wow, just one new this gen game and the rest all ports.

@RPGamer I wouldn't stop, I don't see why you would either. I would think like me you would just stop buying newer games.

@westman98 Why would you translate them to touch?
I would think a gamepad like all the other services use would be the solution to that.

DS games would be played with the device in portrait mode, getting you probably similar screen sizes and way more pixels. I just checked and my phone display is in portrait wider than a DS display. Only the latest 3DS would be an issue, and the 3d is going to work anyway.

@westman98 What are you on about?
You get an emulator buy a license and package it with each rom as a signed binary for the device.

The licensing of games is way harder than the technical problems.

@mousieone I know what those are, scams.
That you fell for it doesn't mean I should.

@nab1 I see you do understand. They are all scams. Thanks for trying though, I hope you get paid well.

@nab1 So you are not required to pay for anything, except characters which are a thing that should have come with the game!

It's microtransaction garbage, stop defending this crap.

@Magician That is has an in game currency was enough for me to nope out.

It would just be more shovelware and the crapfest that is mobile gaming.

If mobile gaming had been treated as anything but a dumping ground and freemium crap fest the Switch would never have succeeded

So the game is going to be free?
If not, why is it so full of advertising?

Using the USB-C connector and not properly implementing USB-C is not the same as a custom charging method. This is just a broken implementation of a proper method. Nintendo needs to fix this with the next release. I believe the implementation is fine, except for in docked mode.

Is this as linear as the current ones or will we go back to less handholding like early lego games?

@RupeeClock Kids these days..

This was a good idea. It prevents having to deal with problem names.

So old ports and shovelware.

@neogyo You can get a boombox that accepts bluetooth.
Why make everyone else at the park suffer with your music though?

Who makes tapes in the USA? Not records to tapes, not assembles tapes, but makes the magnetic media itself?

@Ventilator I don't understand why you are abusing the word real this way. There is no magic about analogue. They all have minimum resolutions anyway. How fast a needle can move, how fast something can be cut, etc.

The best sound is that with the least noise. There are no analogue formats that I know of that have a low noise floor. Vinyl is noisy as heck. That's that famous warmness, just like tubes. Those are defects not found in the original sound when it was recorded.
