@MarioBrickLayer they can do much more, if I were them, I will reinvest everything I earn from this movie (which should be enough for multiple other movies) and more in other movies and tv shows
Pokémon TCG is a mess but it is very beginners friendly In PTCGO I am only playing theme decks because I don’t have all the cards for any good deck but in live I have several really good decks
I hope it will be a good patch I barely touched the game because I didn’t have much time for it and hoped they will fix most of the issues by the time I’ll get to it, but if it will only happen late February it might be to late lol
@CharlieGirl they offered her much more than industry standard Hellena claims she near poverty and yet turned down a 750-1000 dollars an hour offer for 20 hours of work asking for at least 5000$ an hour and royalties, do you understand how absurd it is? Why her 20 hours of voice acting is worth more than literally anyone else who worked on the project spending years of work on that project? Did you ever bought a game because a certain voice actor worked on it? Yeah… me neither, we love them but VA never been a selling point for video games
She was amazing as Bayonetta, I loved her in this role, but lying about her pay (and many other things) in order to get some media attention and get dozens of people fired just because she is angry is not something Bayonetta would do…
@metalgario she obviously lied
She claimed that they made 450M just from the games (not including merch, spin-off and other things)
For that to be true they needed like 7.5M copies at full price of 60$ (without even counting the shops and eshop cut… so much more than 7.5m)
The games sold together a bit more 3m copies on all platforms and on the switch, which most of those sold copies came from, was sold for 60$ (they cost 30$ and 40$ or 60$ for both games, if you buy one you even get 10$ off the price of the second one for a total of 60$)
So if she lied on this, what else could she lie about?
@Truegamer79 life time sales There were 7 years between the ps4 and the ps5 (2013-2020), the switch is out for 5 years and sold in that time frame more than the ps4 sold during those 9 years (cause it is still on sale in Japan so I guess it is also true for the US
I think it is a good thing I really want to play it of course, BOTW is probably one of the best games ever made, but exactly because of that I am not in a rush to play it, when a game is that anticipated, it needs to be really good, and if they need a little longer to avoid crunch and polish it, that’s fine with me
We have enough new stuff to play this year even without it, so Nintendo, do your best with this game, as a gamer and a share holder, I believe this is the right call
@EriXz Metroid do pretty well, it is already the best selling Metroid game of all time and will keep on selling I want to pick it up sometime in the future

Re: Video: Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket Gets New Gameplay Trailer, Out October

Pokemon tcg live is good, why do we need another?

Re: It's Official, Total Switch Sales Have Now Surpassed The Game Boy And PS4
@rjejr you are right, they should have cleared it up, but Nintendo post year over year info every quarter
Re: Japanese Charts: PlayStation 5 Soars In Sales And Once Again Beats Switch
Sony sold 93k consoles but non of their games passed 4.5k sales?
Re: It's Official, Total Switch Sales Have Now Surpassed The Game Boy And PS4
@rjejr they probably meant compared to the first 9 months of FY 2022
Re: It's Official, Total Switch Sales Have Now Surpassed The Game Boy And PS4

Re: Video: Here's A Look At Pokémon Scarlet & Violet's Performance (Version 1.1.0)
@JeanPaul a game is just a code and the switch can run more demanding games better so I believe it definitely can be patched into much better state

Re: Poll: So, What’s Your Verdict On The Mario Movie Trailer?
This was way above my expectations
To the point that I want Nintendo to acquire them

Re: Nintendo Acquires Land For New Development Building In Japan
Great
But really long time until we will see results
It might have been better to buy an established building
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Delay Sees Nintendo Shares Slump 6%
@BTB20 because short term it will hurt their revenue
But it is pretty stupid, it isn’t that big of a deal long term
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Delay Sees Nintendo Shares Slump 6%
@Rosalinho yes, but it kinda annoying, they so much cash just lying around, I want to see them use it to expand more often….
Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Delay Sees Nintendo Shares Slump 6%
I felt that, that really a bummer 😓
Re: Video: Oh No, The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild 2 Has Been Delayed To 2023
I think it is a good thing
I really want to play it of course, BOTW is probably one of the best games ever made, but exactly because of that I am not in a rush to play it, when a game is that anticipated, it needs to be really good, and if they need a little longer to avoid crunch and polish it, that’s fine with me

Re: UK Charts: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Slips Further As Gran Turismo 7 Keeps Pole Position
Make sense
Gen 9 probably slowing Legends sales a bit and it is out for other a month now
Re: Nintendo Acquires SRD, A Longtime Partner Studio With Mario And Zelda Game Credits
I mean…. That’s a fine I guess
Not a huge move but at least they are moving
What do they mean by that “ According to the official PR, the acquisition "will have only a minor effect on Nintendo's results"”
Re: Metroid Prime 4 Dev Retro Studios Updates Its Twitter Profile With A New Banner

Re: UK Charts: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Still On Top, Despite 45% Decline In Sales
16 or 17 hours into PLA and about 50% in the story I guess (according to number of nobles I beat)

Great game

Re: PlayStation Boss Jim Ryan Says "More Acquisitions" Are Coming
@HotGoomba Nintendo won’t spend 15 billion dollars for BN
But it is a pretty good fit
If they want to go this way,maybe platinum games will be the right choice for them
Re: Nintendo Switch Was 2021's Best-Selling Console In Europe, The US And Japan
I don’t like the decline in Europe but it was to be expected after the 2020 and the fact that Nintendo is suffering from the chip shortage as well
Re: PlayStation Boss Jim Ryan Says "More Acquisitions" Are Coming
This deal was as big as Nintendo budget for game team expansion and acquisition of game studios…. The Microsoft deal was as big as Nintendo itself
I wonder if Nintendo is worried at all cause funnily enough, I don’t think they should be
Re: Deals: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Drops To Just £34.99 In The UK On Launch Day

This is enough for more movies than you think
But the big question is the time frame for this investment
Re: Nintendo To Invest Huge Sums In Game Development And Online Infrastructure
This is their plans for the upcoming year? Quarter? Other time frame?
