I don’t understand why they dropped the transforming mechanism, that was the best part of the previous game, and made it totally unique from other kart racers including the King itself Mario Kart. They should have just expanded on the previous game, instead it just looks like a generic step backwards.
Where the hell is Cave? Did they go out of business or something? Switch has been out for years, what are they waiting for? All of their shooters should be on Switch.
It’s not about Mortal Kombat, but rather his own childhood. He should definitely be seeing a therapist, he’s apparently got some work to do on his subconscious.
I bought the VR starter kit + blaster, but I haven’t set it up yet. Every time I think about it, it seems like too much trouble. I wish it came preassembled.
I’m gonna give this a try to check out Zelda VR. Wish there was a basic kit with only the headset, but $40 for the gun pack isn’t too bad. This will likely be my only Labo purchase ever, and my first look at VR, albeit in a limted form. Hope they add support for Mario Kart VR.
I'm as excited for this as anyone, but I really wish they had of stuck with pixel art for this game. It's just not the same with these modern slick cartoon graphics.
Awesome. Now I’ll actually play this game. Bought for my X at launch, but never played it because it didn’t feel right on that console. Now that it’s coming to Switch, however, I’ll definitely give it a go.
I really tried to like this game on my One X but it was just terrible. Online sessions took forever to connect (15 min or more), graphics were ugly and dated, looked like something from the PS2 era, and it was full of glitches and bugs. The gameplay was fun when it worked, and maybe they've improved it since launch, but it was honestly shocking how dated and bad this game was when it was first released.
I'm getting this for my One X. I was originally planning to get it for Switch, but there's too many variables holding it back. No pre-order option (no Shao Kahn?), no deluxe version, and it's being ported by a third party instead of by Netherlands themselves. We really don't know what the quality will be like for the Switch version. As a serious Mortal Kombat fan, I think I need to go for the X version and wait and see on Switch.
If it's amazing for Switch I might buy it for both consoles, but the X is definitely getting my money first. I can pre-order it there, for one.
I’m glad he’s gone. Let’s not act like someone died here, he retired a millionaire on his own accord. I’m sure he’s a perfectly likeable person in real life, but as a CEO he was terrible. Every time he spoke it made me want to distance myself from Nintendo. He had the exact opposite effect of what he was supposed to have. Maybe the new CEO can refrain from calling his audience “consumers” in every other sentence, man that was annoying.
It’s true gaming is addictive and bad for you and a total waste of time and money. There’s a million other things you could do that are more important and more fulfilling. Face it.
That said video games are still lots of fun and I play them anyways.
They are so slow and painfully backwards when it comes to online services. If it wasn’t for online gameplay with my brother, there’s no way I’d pay for their crappy service. Even at $20 per year it’s not worth it.

Re: Cave's Legendary Shmup ESP Ra.De. Is Coming To Switch, Courtesy Of M2
Awesome. I was just asking last week about where Cave’s shooters are. Hopefully the rest of their library follows.
Re: Video: Can Team Sonic Racing On Switch Keep Pace With The PlayStation 4 Version?
Is that the music that's actually in the game? It's absolutely terrible.
Re: Site News: So, Where’s Our Team Sonic Racing Review?
That’s because it’s going to suck. The $40 price tag already means they don’t have confidence in the game.
I hope it doesn’t, I’d like to have a new Sonic racing game that’s good. But with Sega you gotta assume the worst until proven otherwise.

Re: Video: Can A Headstrap Really Fix Zelda VR And Labo VR?
Still haven't gotten around to constructing my labo VR kit. Every time I think about it it seems like too much trouble.
Re: One Mortal Kombat 11 Developer Had To See A Therapist After Violent Dreams
It’s not about Mortal Kombat, but rather his own childhood. He should definitely be seeing a therapist, he’s apparently got some work to do on his subconscious.

Re: In-Store Flyer Reveals More Super Mario Maker 2 Details

Re: Review: Arcade Classics Anniversary Collection - Perfectly Functional, But Not Much Else
The only game that matters here is Life Force, but at $20 it’s a bit steep.

Re: Review: Nintendo Labo Toy-Con 04: VR Kit - Entry-Level VR With Some Trademark Nintendo Charm And Polish
I bought the VR starter kit + blaster, but I haven’t set it up yet. Every time I think about it, it seems like too much trouble. I wish it came preassembled.
My first and probably last Labo.

Re: Reminder: Switch Enters The World Of VR Today With Nintendo Labo
I’m gonna give this a try to check out Zelda VR. Wish there was a basic kit with only the headset, but $40 for the gun pack isn’t too bad. This will likely be my only Labo purchase ever, and my first look at VR, albeit in a limted form. Hope they add support for Mario Kart VR.
Re: Mortal Kombat 11's $100 Premium Edition Contents Revealed
The lack of transparency around the Switch release caused me to pre-order it for my X instead.

Re: Cuphead Is Coming To Nintendo Switch, Thanks In No Small Part To Microsoft
Awesome. Now I’ll actually play this game. Bought for my X at launch, but never played it because it didn’t feel right on that console. Now that it’s coming to Switch, however, I’ll definitely give it a go.

Re: Friday The 13th: The Game Is Stalking Its Way To Switch This Spring
I really tried to like this game on my One X but it was just terrible.

Re: Sorry Folks, Mortal Kombat 11's Online Stress Test Is Skipping Switch
@ThanosReXXX Oh right...!
Re: Sorry Folks, Mortal Kombat 11's Online Stress Test Is Skipping Switch
I'm getting this for my One X. I was originally planning to get it for Switch, but there's too many variables holding it back. No pre-order option (no Shao Kahn?), no deluxe version, and it's being ported by a third party instead of by Netherlands themselves. We really don't know what the quality will be like for the Switch version. As a serious Mortal Kombat fan, I think I need to go for the X version and wait and see on Switch.
If it's amazing for Switch I might buy it for both consoles, but the X is definitely getting my money first. I can pre-order it there, for one.
Re: Sega Wants To Know Which Games You'd Like On The Mega Drive Mini
They better all be on there if they expect anyone to buy this thing.
Re: Feature: What Reggie-Fils-Aimé Meant To Nintendo, The Games Industry, And All Of Us
I’m glad he’s gone. Let’s not act like someone died here, he retired a millionaire on his own accord. I’m sure he’s a perfectly likeable person in real life, but as a CEO he was terrible. Every time he spoke it made me want to distance myself from Nintendo. He had the exact opposite effect of what he was supposed to have. Maybe the new CEO can refrain from calling his audience “consumers” in every other sentence, man that was annoying.

Re: Nintendo Confirms It Has Unannounced Titles Set To Launch This Year, Delays Not Anticipated
They should hurry up and announce them because this year looks even worse than last year so far.

Re: Indie Developer Says Switch's HD Rumble Is "So Easy To Use", Here's How It Works
I can’t tell the difference between HD rumble on Switch and normal rumble on other consoles. HD just feels like a weaker more annoying rumble.
