@Parmandur Nintendo is doing just fine. They don’t need to bully little guys to protect their IP, especially when it’s such a tiny amount of people. I have no sympathy for Nintendo, sorry they take in millions, it would be easy to overlook something that they “think” is suspicious.
@archangelg If you can get used to it, you can use it for any game, barring ones requiring twin sticks. Humans are pretty adaptable if they want to be!
These top fifty lists are so interesting! This particular one has a good flavor. Also, it should be considered some kind of international crime that Terranigma never got released outside certain regions! That’s a gem, to be sure. PLEASANTLY surprised to see Gradius 3 on a top 50 that’s not featuring shmups. Nice!
If you haven’t patched that game with the SA-1 enhancement, you are missing out!
@JR150 That makes sense, but in my mind all things past Zelda 3 make little to no sense in the game timeline. And you’re right, the amount of hype surrounding this game is making it sound like something it’s not.
@JR150 The ending disappointed me because it’s showing me how far Nintendo has gone from their original idea of Zelda games. Yikes, I can’t tell you how many times I cringed. And whoever made the ending sure was obsessed with Zeldas face.
@Heavyarms55 I 100% respect what you are saying, I just think Capcom might not be the best example to call on. I don’t know what their stance is on piracy (I can probably guess) but there are literal hundreds of fan-made games of their IP that they don’t pursue, legally.
@ReWane Nintendo cares because it pulls attention away from Ultimate. For that matter, I don’t have any sympathy for Nintendo right now. Instead of fixing their broken hardware, they waste resources on all these legal battles.
@Cosats I’m not the one complaining in the wrong place and at the wrong time. If you truly believe in what you are saying, but the extent of your input stops at this forum, then you might as well not fight for your narrow-minded ideal. If you truly in your heart of hearts believe the nonsense you are posting, then join a legal agency where you can actively do something about it, instead of just grousing in the forums every time. Walk your talk. Grow up, indeed.
Movies and games follow different story structures, and they don’t always mesh together. I am yet to be shown a movie based on a game that comes out great.
@nessisonett Essentially, I agree with you, especially about being challenged. Lots and lots of thought goes unquestioned, especially in political matters. What’s worse, questioning certain topics that are considered part of the norm makes you look like an upstart, a similar quality that cults also bear. An example of this would be when people give you the eye roll when you talk about racism against whites, or sexual assault against men, as if those two demographics are impervious to harm. Or if you point out to people that during certain times in history, Africans were enslaving other Africans that were from tribes other than their own, people claim you are racist or not sensitive.
I think difficult conversations can be the most rewarding, but the pull towards the status quo is powerful, and keeps many people from fully realizing themselves. Most people are content with less, and the idea of challenging themselves, even with a difficult conversation, is too much for them.
A friend of mine voted for Trump. She’s 57. When she told her parents, they disowned her, and do not speak to her to this day. That sort of behavior is silly, but it stands as an example of what I mean about how powerful the status quo is!
@nessisonett I see your point, but when I read Catcher in the Rye, I didn't get a very political vibe from it. I just found it to be an enjoyable story.
Sometimes, people insert politics where it doesn't belong. Other times, it's engrained, so I get what you are saying.
@broskiplays It’s not shameless, if you don’t tell people about your channel, some people might not find it. What’s your channel so I can check that out? If it runs Witcher 3, that’s pretty crazy!

Re: "Free Melee" Becomes "Save Smash" Following Nintendo's Legal Action Against Competitive Smash Bros. Event
@ConlanMass The point is that nobody can, so stop trying to argue something without an adequate burden of proof.
Re: "Free Melee" Becomes "Save Smash" Following Nintendo's Legal Action Against Competitive Smash Bros. Event
@ConlanMass Prove that the copies are suspicious.
Re: "Free Melee" Becomes "Save Smash" Following Nintendo's Legal Action Against Competitive Smash Bros. Event
@ConlanMass Proof, please.

I’m waiting for a HitBox to arrive in the mail. After years of cramps from sticks, I’m excited to finally have something more ergonomically designed!

Ugly.
Expensive.
Mediocre lineup.
Hackable?

Heh. Interesting karma.
Re: Eiji Aonuma Talks About The Possibility Of More Legend Of Zelda Spin-Offs
The only Zelda spin off I will accept is Zelda maker, anything else goes in the bin.

@AmplifyMJ What a nice parent! Make sure you raise that child right and get them Dark Souls and Skyrim!
Re: Random: 3D-Printed Rainbow Road Takes Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit To A Whole Other Level
Not accurate. Should be suspended over an eternal abyss.
Re: Poll: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity Is Out Today, Are You Getting It?
Honestly, I couldn’t play it if I wanted to. Too much neon flashing, hurts my eyes.
Re: Review: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity - Not The Zelda Game You Want, But Perhaps The One You Need
@Northwind I caught it too, but your reaction to it is a bit over the top!
Re: Review: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity - Not The Zelda Game You Want, But Perhaps The One You Need
Wait, this review references BOTW as being the best game ever made..?
Isn’t that the game where you wander a mostly empty landscape, with constant interruptions from item pickups?
Re: Twitch Streamers Banned For Playing Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity
It’s amazing that we live in a day and age where corporations just bully whoever they like.

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity Korok Locations
I would be upset if I dropped $60 on a game, only to be given this busy-work. Are these things required for progress, or they just unlock buffs?

@jump Yeah, these sorts of stories are all marketing nonsense to get people to keep talking about the game, good or bad.

Re: Picross S5 Brings Your Next Puzzle Fix To Switch Next Week
So never played a Picross game, do these play like Minesweeper? They look a lot like Minesweeper.
