@OldManLav Lol, that was something that they fixed in the remaster that happened in the PSOne version, so yay they brought back an old performance issue lol. 😹
@Liam_Doolan I'm so happy that Koei Tecmo is finally releasing RPG's from their back catalogue that were previously Japan exclusive! Hopefully they'll release older RPG's outside of the Atelier series as well!
@jowe_gv I'm guessing the last three waves will have characters based off of whatever Nitro courses we get from each wave. I believe the leak listed 1-2-2 number of Nitro tracks in the last three waves which if my hunch is right will mean we'll get 5 new or returning characters in the second half of the DLC.
@Chalkfire Hard disagree if you're hunting Gaismegorm, or the Risen monsters it's going to take most good hunters longer than 20 minutes to solo, especially if they use a S&S or Dual Blades which are fairly weak compared to bowguns and the stronger melee weapons.
@KateGray Do the "Tweet" buttons for articles on sites use the Twitter API? If so this'll be bad news bears for smaller press websites like mine that rely on traffic from Twitter for their viewership.
@Key19 It should still work for you if you're actually still losing weight at a slower pace, but lower metabolism means you'll have to keep up the dieting and exercising routine for much longer this time.
@Mrkittyhead Yeah, I might actually get Three Houses first because of this. Have always been interested in the relationship system added in Awakening through Three Houses and removing it puts this a bit further down on my wishlist.
@Maulbert Most of these Gamecube-Inspired controllers don't have those issues. And yeah the layout of the GCN controller is amazing, but the official controller made by Nintendo had serious issues.
@Rambler They are talking about first party sales which almost never happen in NA anymore. It seems we get a first party sale less than a quarter as often as EU...
@Nua It was hilariously notorious in online matches as players were able to skip a long enough portion of the track to take 5-6 seconds off their time each lap lol. xD
@Paraka This is actually a remake/reimagining of Digimon World 1. The town can be built-up, Digimon age and die, and yes Digimon once again can poop! 🤣
@StarPoint There are new issues now though. First Spiny Shells are no longer displayed on the mini-map once thrown and the second is something I ran across when playing offline today. I got hit with waves of Spiny Shells 3-6 within 30 seconds a number of times which is neither normal nor fun... 😒
I love how people are like "pass because it got a bad review" when it received a score of 7/10. At this rate people are going to skip everything that doesn't receive a perfect 10/10...
@Kiyata That's going to be a lot longer than 5 years from now. Heck you can still redownload your games on the Wii, over a decade after Nintendo moved on from the console.
@AG_Awesome @RubyCarbuncle @Ryu_Niiyama @Dr_Luigi As a video games reviewer and owner of a medium-small-sized blog and forum website that focuses heavily on Nintendo-related content, the social media rule is a bit worrisome given its vague language as if me or one of my staff members write a review or article and give the game / Nintendo a less than stellar score / remarks, Nintendo could, in theory retaliate by denying me and my crew service for their products. It's a very slippery slope that makes it potentially dangerous for influencers and the press to be honest out of fear for being accused of slander...
Sorry for the rant, but this is something that had to be said.
@Anti-Matter @Snatcher I would love to see a Transformers War of Cybertron / Transformers Fall of Cybertron Remastered Bundle for Switch. Those were amazing and with the better GPU and CPU of Switch they would look and run better than on PS3 unless the devs went nuts on improving visuals at the cost of performance. Regardless those games went under the radar because by the time the PS3 actually started selling well those games were already as rare as steak tartar.
@Poodlestargenerica @HammerKirby Even the Wii U was slightly more powerful than the PS3 and the Switch is modestly more powerful than the Wii U so yeah not only is it possible, it already exists and is called the Nintendo Switch.
@AlanaHagues Will we no longer be able to add followers on Twitter to our friend's list on Switch. That feature was pretty good for getting some peeps on your list for online games. That feature also utilizes the Twitter connectivity on your Nintendo Account iirc.

@Erigen Those drops were in the PSOne version as well, but now? The remaster runs better than the original for sure.
Re: Poll: Which Nintendo Switch Online Console Do You Play The Most?
@RupeeClock Right now? GBA for sure, but overall, probably N64.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's Wave 4 DLC Adds Yoshi's Island & Birdo This Spring
@Dinglehopper A couple of the courses do have anti-garavity in waves 2 & 3. And wave 3 has an underwater track as well.

Re: Nintendo Improves Switch eShop's Search Function With Small QoL Update
@HammerGalladeBro You actually can if you use the search feature, despite it not being obvious that you can.
Re: Random: The Ace Attorney Court Bot Is Probably Closing Shop Thanks To Twitter's New Rules
@SlashFuture Musk needs to be ousted by his board of directors...or be sent to Arkham Asylum, either action would be fine. 🤣

@PessitheMystic This actually has a few useful apps so I wouldn't call it shovelware, but it's definitely NOT a game.

Re: Ys X: Nordics Announced For Nintendo Switch, Launching In 2023
@Serpenterror You forgot...
The Legend of Heroes: Trails Into Reverie.
&
The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails.
Both of those Trails series games also release on Nintendo Switch in 2023.
Re: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot - Card Warriors Online Service To Be Terminated In 2023
@JayJ It's just a extra minigame within a non-service game. Calling Kakarot a service game would be wholly inaccurate.

Re: Review: Hokko Life - An Animal Crossing-Like That Lacks Charm And Originality
Yeah 5 seems way too harsh. It doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with the game so it should be a 6 or 7 minimum if reviewed objectively. 😑
That said I respect the reviewer's opinion. 👍
