Re: Talking Point: Would You Buy A Digital-Only 'Switch 2'?

Stew

I hope that at least the more expensive model would have an OLED screen, if we can't have it for both. But I don't see why we can't, since I don't know how using an LCD would save you that much more money. Didn't the OLED Switch cost them only $10 more to manufacture over the original model?

Re: Nintendo Direct September 2023: Every Announcement, Game Reveal, Trailer

Stew

How dare they tease me with Super Mario Galaxy music for an art museum. I was hoping for Super Mario Galaxy 2 to finally get an HD remaster. Also, scalpers are probably raging right now thanks to the remaster we did end up getting, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. The OG version is stupid expensive, so nice that we can finally pay less for an even better version. Not that I'm going to get it.

Re: Poll: Will There Be A September Nintendo Direct This Year?

Stew

Plz plz plz show new nintendo switch mega 2.0 with the ability to shoot lasers out of the controllers. You can't fool me, this is what we'll get. 100%. Definitely.
On reveal day: What's does 'no joy-con drift' mean? And why should I care about playing this underwater? This sucks. No lasers, no deal. Why are people happy about this?

Re: Mario Kart Tour Will Receive No New Content After October's 'Battle Tour', Says Nintendo

Stew

@Twilite9 This comment has been annoying me all morning.
The last main entry in the Mario Kart series was released 9 years ago, followed by a deluxe edition and two spin-offs, both released a few years ago, and then DLC, so it wouldn't be over-saturating to release another game, given how popular the series is. Also, doing the math, a new F-Zero game is 100% not going to sell better than a new Mario Kart since a lot of kids don't even know what F-Zero is. Nintendo has done a lot of risks, like the Wii, but this would be a risk that definitely wouldn't pay off.

Re: Hands On: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Lives Up To Its Name In The First Hour

Am I the only person who loved the chaos of New Super Mario Bros. multi-player, and thus the only person who's angry at it's absence? And why don't all of the characters have unique abilities? And this game better not kick you out out of the stage EVERY time you die. Really, I'm just waiting for reviews before getting this.

Re: Poll: What Course Are You Most Excited About In The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Wave 5 DLC?

Stew

They need to stop adding GBA courses, since those are easily the most bland and short. They lack so much appeal compared to the other courses, and they're just filling up the selection when there are so much better tracks. One course I would love to see in Wave 6 is Rosalina's Ice World, with the slopes, underwater section, music (though for some reason most of the music for the tracks they added are worse than the original versions), atmosphere, penguins, detail, penguins. Okay, it's all about the penguins.

@Captain_Toad Yeah, MK9 could be out sometime next year along with a new console, although that could be a long ways to go. But still, if Nintendo makes a booster course pass vol.2, it would probably take them another year, if they don't pick up the pace. And even then, adding even more tracks would leave basically nothing for MK9. But I certainly wouldn't mind more battle arenas...

Re: As Switch Momentum Slows, Nintendo Expects Further Sales Decline Next Year

Stew

Are you kidding me?! I have to wait a whole extra year just to play Mario in (hopefully) 4K? Well, if it wants to beat PS2, then they're gonna have to ditch the basic model in favor of the OLED model, then drop the price on the OLED to $300. Also, if the next console doesn't have backwards compatability, meaning I can't just sell my current Switch, then I might as well go for Xbox or Playstation. Alright, I'm kidding, but still. Please Nintendo. It's already painful enough explaining to myself that I can't have a Switch 2 by Christmas. Make it worth the wait.
