Whatever side of the argument you're on, you can't deny that a 50/50 split is pretty bad.
After all, if there are just as many people who hate something as there are who like it, then there is a legitimate problem. Especially from a franchise that has received fairly consistent praise over the years.
This review site has been tainted by corruption. Everyone, unfollow these people, unsubscribe from their Youtube channel, and remove them from your lives. THEY ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED.
@dequesi The game is specifically made for people who played Undertale. Hell, there's even a message at the very start of the game saying that, and giving you an option to go straight to Undertale's eShop page.
@blackbox64 There's one key difference between Cloud and Goku though. Goku is not a video game character.
Dragon Ball has always had its primary focus on manga and anime. And it's been made quite clear that ONLY characters who got their start in video games can ever be a part of Smash.
Sure, there have been many Dragon Ball games in the past, but all of them are based entirely on the source material.
Also, big presence on the Switch? You mean porting a 2 year old game over?
Kind of spoilery about Akhos, Patroka, and Mikhail being blades isn't it? Still, looking forward to using them. I wonder what they'll bring to the table.
The surprising thing for me is that Yoshi's Island and Starwing are on there. Wasn't there some sort of legal issue that stopped them going on Virtual Console? Did it get sorted out?
I'd use handheld mode more, but I swear my Switch has a faulty battery. It can barely get an hour before it needs recharging. And I don't want to send it to Nintendo to fix it, because all sources tell me that I'll lose my save data in the process...
I'm going to hold them to that, because I get the feeling that my Switch's battery life feels much shorter than usual. Granted, I've only played BOTW on it so far, but it still concerns me.
@impurekind Since when has any console ever had a good launch line up? Literally every single console ever has had a garbage amount of games at launch.
Despite how iconic Charles Martinet is, I'll always have a soft spot for Mario and Luigi's voices in the SMB3 and SMW shows. They were my introduction to the series in general, and I'll never forget them.
I'm still trying to figure out how the Joy Cons slide out. It can't just be a case of pulling up, since that means the screen would keep dropping away from the sides whenever you lifted it. Is there a release button on this thing?
Well, I only ever buy physical if I can help it. The only exception was Kirby Planet Robobot, because GAME had sold out by the time I got there. Apparently, they only had two copies in stock. Can you believe that?
For me, Star Fox Zero was good. The motion controls take some getting used to, but once you get the down, you can perform some insane score runs.
The main issue I had with Zero though is the length. This game was just too short, and didn't have much to come back to. This was begging for DLC, but with Wii U's lifespan practically over, it's unlikely that will happen now. And that's a big shame.
@Sir_JBizzle That just makes it even more confusing that they skipped Go Busters, since that season was based on secret agents. Kids would've eaten that up.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Well, you could be right. But tell me something. How would that necessarily be a bad thing?
If anything, the mobile games would just be another source of income, giving them bigger budgets to use on mainstream console games, making them bigger and better. Quick cash-ins like Mario Tennis Ultra Smash would be a thing of the past.
And as long as Sony and Microsoft are willing to keep making consoles, then odds are Nintendo will be too.
And if they don't? Then they can focus on the handheld business. After all, it's been effectively carrying them through the Wii U's dry spells.
And let's not forget the fact that we still don't know what exactly the NX is, or what its capable of. For all we know, consoles could go flying off the shelves from day one.
Long story short, there's really not much reason to assume the worse. I think you're just being paranoid.

Re: Soapbox: Why Sword And Shield's Pokémon Purge Will Benefit Everyone
I don't even need to read this article to know that this will benefit absolutely no one whatsoever.
I used to think this was a reputable news site. Guess I was wrong.
Re: Soapbox: I Don't 'Get' Smash Bros. And I Just Don't Know Why
That sounds like it's not our problem.

Re: Smash Ultimate Nearly Featured Decidueye Rather Than Incineroar, Lack Of ARMS Characters Explained
Personally, I'm glad we got Incineroar. Dude's got personality to spare.
Still kind of sucks that Rex and Pyra aren't here though.

Keep in mind, he said they'd only make the shift "If necessary". That's not a guaranteed yes.

Re: Super Smash Bros. Fans Are Harassing Masahiro Sakurai Over Waluigi Snub
How self entitled do you have to be to the point that 60+ characters (potentially 70+) isn't good enough?
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend?
Since I'm still excited for the future Dream Friends for Kirby Star Allies, I'll be playing through Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot again.
Re: Nyko Is Being Taken To Court Over A Bricked Switch Console
This is why I only stick to the official dock. It might be expensive, but at least it doesn't mess your Switch up when you slot it in.

In other news, the sky is blue, water is wet, and people poop after eating food.

Re: Surprise, Nintendo Isn't Hosting An E3 Press Conference This Year
I think it's safe to assume that they'll just have a big Direct like in previous years.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Will Last About Three Hours on the Switch's Handheld Mode
I'm going to hold them to that, because I get the feeling that my Switch's battery life feels much shorter than usual. Granted, I've only played BOTW on it so far, but it still concerns me.
Re: Overwatch Director "Loving" Nintendo Switch But Admits Porting Game Would Be A Challenge
Would be great to see. Plus, it would be a good opportunity to add Nintendo themed skins for the heroes.
Imagine Winston as Donkey Kong, or Bastion with a R.O.B look, or Junkrat as Waluigi.
Re: Here's What The Day One Nintendo Switch System Update Will Do
@Yhdekskymmenen Why should that be a problem? Most people have like 3 other devices that can web browse anyway.

Re: Guide: A Breakdown of Confirmed Nintendo Switch Games and Release Dates
Not a great launch lineup other than Zelda. But then again, most consoles have garbage lineups at day one.

A live action movie could really go either way. It all depends on the director, and what the story is.
