The eshop is terrible, but please NO stupid menu music. The music on Wii U was horrible, and I always raced to turn it down everytime it started. If I wanted to listen to music I'd put on some music that's actually good, not some crappy background menu nonsense.
All multiplayer games should have online multiplayer as an option, especially racing games. Needs to be available at launch too. No online multiplayer = no buy.
This company lost me forever with that terrible WWE wrestling game they released for the Switch. They will need to pay me if they expect me to play their games again.
I just can't get into this game. The lack of mystery mushrooms killed it for me, and the Switch is nowhere near as easy to use for this game as the Wii U gamepad was. I put over 450 hours into SMM1, but only a few hours so far with SMM2. It's boring without mystery mushrooms.
This is fantastic news! Now bring back the classic pixel art, give us online multiplayer, and release the game for the Switch at the same time as the other consoles, and then we'll be good.
I feel bad for anyone who hasn’t already downloaded Nintendo’s complete catalog of classic ROMs. Imagine actually waiting on Nintendo to release these games. Madness.
Too bad My Arcade makes crappy products. After buying a ton of their mini arcade machines I’ve given up on this company. They use poor emulation, the weakest ROMs (NES instead of arcade), and they often have terrible scratchy sound quality. Their products look good but they always cheap out on the gameplay. And their release schedule is always way off, these Contra machines prob won’t be out for at least another year or so. Their social media is bad too, they never respond to customer questions of any kind. Unfortunately, My Arcade (and Arcade Classics) are the worst mini arcade makers on the market.
If you want good mini arcades I suggest sticking with Tiny Arcades, New Wave Toy’s Replicades, or Arcade1Up.
I'm surprised he's still alive. It makes sense I guess, video games have only been around for a few decades. But for some reason I always thought of Tetris as being created hundreds of years ago like during medieval Russia or something.
I’d happily buy this for $80. For $400 it will never sell. The tiers are too confusing and unnecessary for a retro box. This is going to be a major commercial failure.
I thought it was boring as hell. I’m tired of Zelda, and don’t give a flip about Pokémon or Animal Crossing. They didn’t show anything new that interested me. And where’s the SNES games? Where’s Gamepass? Where are the folders? The most exciting thing about the Direct was the Contra Anniversary Collection. Probably the worst E3 presentation I’ve ever seen from Nintendo.
Framerate dips pretty badly in this game especially online. You get too many cars and action on screen at once it it drops to the teens. It’s brief and mostly consistent, but it definitely drops noticeably here and there.
The problem I have with this game though is that you can’t join friends online. The stupidly behind this omission is beyond baffling.
Why would anyone buy this game when the developers don’t even bother including any screen shots or videos on the eshop? Just a still image of the game cover is all they show. Yeah that’s going to inspire a lot of people to drop $50 on this game. Eshop makes it look like shovel ware. Deserves to fail if they can’t figure out such basic marketing.
Let it go people. The digital age is upon us. Let it go. The sooner you accept the digital age the happier you’ll be. Attachment to physical media is suffering.
@__chadnorred sold my Wii U and unfortunately all my masterpieces went with it.... So glad we finally have accounts and cloud storage for the Switch nowadays.

Re: So, AtGames Is Having A Crazy Week

Liars.
That’s almost as stupid as Nintendo Life’s word count minimum in user comments.

Re: Nintendo Releases Statement About Switch Joy-Con Drift Issue
The Joy Cons suck anyways. I don’t know how anyone can play games with those microscopic nubs; it’s Pro controller or nothing for me.
Re: Gallery: Gorge Your Face On These Images Of The First Evercade Prototype
That thing is hideously ugly and looks like any other number of generic handheld emulators already available.

Re: DOOM Eternal's Multiplayer Will Be Equally As Satisfying As The Single-Player Campaign
Good. It’s 2019 all games should offer online multiplayer.
Re: River City Girls Brings Classic Beat 'Em Up Action To Switch This September
Online multiplayer, where is it? All games with couch coop should also have online multiplayer. It’s 2019, get it together already.

Re: A Book Celebrating The Life Of Satoru Iwata Announced For Release In Japan
Wow could they have made a more ugly book cover? I'd be surprised if they could; that looks like it was designed by a pre-schooler.
Re: Preview: Things We've Learned Playing Super Mario Maker 2
Still can't believe they ditched the mystery mushroom. What a stupid move. That was the best thing about SMM1.
Re: Astral Chain Director Reveals Neat Trick Which Will Let You Play In Co-Op
Online coop or GTFO. It's 2019, not 1984. Get it together.
Re: Retro Studios Is Seeking An Art Director For Metroid Prime 4
This game's not coming out for like 10 years. Hope I'm still alive by then.
Re: Video: Witness Annihilation In The New Daemon X Machina Story Trailer
The voice acting in that promo is terrible and the pacing awkward. They need to stick to the action in these trailers.
Re: Feature: Tetris Creator Alexey Pajitnov On Tetris 99, Tetris Comics And His Favourite Tetris Piece

Re: Indie Developer Shares "Bad News" About Publishing On Switch, After Pitching His Game To Nintendo
Try making a game that doesn't suck first, then maybe you will succeed.
Re: Atari's Take On The "Classic Edition" Trend Will Cost You At Least $250
I’d happily buy this for $80. For $400 it will never sell. The tiers are too confusing and unnecessary for a retro box. This is going to be a major commercial failure.
Re: NBA 2K19 Is On Sale For $3 On The North American Switch eShop
They would need to pay me to download it.
Re: Video: Nintendo's E3 Direct Went From Pedestrian To Perfection
I thought it was boring as hell. I’m tired of Zelda, and don’t give a flip about Pokémon or Animal Crossing. They didn’t show anything new that interested me. And where’s the SNES games?

Re: Super Mario Maker 2 Will Let You Play Online With Friends After Update, Nintendo Confirms
Good. Some common sense finally. But it should be included with the game at launch. Why is it an afterthought?
Re: FIFA 20 On Switch Will Be A Scaled-Back "Legacy Edition"

Re: Sega Surprises With Mini Mega CD, 32X, And Cartridges For Sega Mega Drive / Genesis Mini
@BanjoPickles That would be dope. Also needs Ground Zero Texas and Sewer Shark. And for the 32x Virtua Racing.

Lol that’s kind of cool. Anyone who owned the original stack of consoles knows how ridiculously awesome it was.
Re: Guide: Where To Pre-Order Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Mini
Waiting for the hacked version. I waited for the hacked versions of the NES and SNES minis and boi was it worth it!
