Of course online tournaments is THE feature we need. I kept playing World Tour for about two years because every week I got into the event. There is no understanding how they did not include them.
If gameplay is entertaining enough, everybody will happily go through it. When everything is in the reward and not the actual experience, the whole thing becomes "work". What's the point, then ?

I said "You guys are taking this thing way too seriously. This is a Nintendo website, calm down."
You... guys.
But your answer is "it's not me, it's the one that cited the study". I don't care one bit. Never said it was you alone, and your asking multiple times for proof makes you part of it.
As for yourself, you ignored my question too : "What are you trying to achieve here ?" Unless of course being vehement with strangers is your idea of fun.
(I wasted too much time on you, you're out as far as I'm concerned. Take care !)
@Franklin You did express contempt towards people in this thread, mind you. (hence the animosity that several people expressed)
I have no problem with people discussing non-Nintendo stuff, just your asking for "studies with figures proving one's point" is ridiculous. Let's keep it light and entertaining, the place for heavy politic statements and debates might not be between a Pokemon walkthrough and a Zelda review.
@BloodNinja @Franklin is way above us. He has the generosity to make us see the light AND to remind us of how dumb and dishonnest we are in the process.
THE GAME IS IN YOUR HANDS ! What are you unhappy about ? 6 months is plenty, anyone interrested has their chance of grabbing the game.
The real problem with 3D All Stars is in fact that Nintendo didn't put its "blood sweat and tears" in it. They delivered a barebone collection and gave these games a mediocre treatment.
@PuppyToucher The N64 iteration is my favourite with four different islands, but I think the graphics and framerate didn't age very well. Today I'd say Pilotwings Resort on 3DS is the way to go (and you should find that one for cheap).
@Silly_G Yes ! Also, being ablo to play as Nintendo characters (even if the game doesn't need it at all) would be very good for sales, and incorporate well with the Mario Kart / Golf / Tennis... declinaison.
@Moroboshi876 Some Amiibos going half price or less is the very reason they don't get the same support : it was a trend and when it burst and demand faded out, they gave up on it. Also I wonder if Nintendo's delivery and manufacturing capacities have not been "switched" (but this is pure speculation).

Re: Talking Point: How Many Hours Is A 'Short' Game For You?
It rarely is too short. Actually most games could be trimmed of some tiedous moments.
Re: Review: Metroid Dread - Quite Possibly The Best Metroid Game Ever Made
12 hours is perfect !!!
I'm in my late 30s and I don't have a lot of time on my hands. So a short and intense experience is perfect for me.
To everyone complaining about it : stop pretending you don't have a huge backlog waiting for you.

Re: Switch eShop Lists Spelunky 1 And 2 For Release At The End Of August
Is Spelunky 1 worth anything if you can get the second one instead ?

@Franklin
Are you being deliberately obtuse ?
I believe you're intelligent enough to understand what contempt is.
You're behaving like vaccine sceptics. You seem to often seek comfort in numbers that is false on a number of levels.

What's my opinion ? I never gave my opinion. I tried to comment, and was censored.
Just chill, dude ! What are you trying to achieve here ?
(Here = a Nintendo website, again)

I made a comment and it was erased. Not a mean one. Not a racist one. So it feels like we better say what NLife wants to read, here.

@dartmonkey You mean "please, don't comment".

It's a shame when you see how much World Tour was better.
Re: Monster Hunter Movie Director And Star Apologise To Chinese Viewers For Racist Joke
When people become too dumb to even watch a movie, sure the director needs to apologize.
Re: Poll: DOOM Eternal Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
Sorry for those who needed one more box on their shelf.
For anybody who want the game, it's here. Let's enjoy it !!!
Re: Doom Eternal For Switch Will No Longer Receive A Physical Release
That's really too bad, so many people were eager to buy physical and complain about the mandatory download !
Re: The Company Behind Control's Cloud Version Is Bringing More "Major" Titles To Switch
Yeah ! More waiting for hours to play a game !

Thanks, I went through Legends but I didn't know half of Origins was missing.
Re: Ubisoft Appears To Be Teasing A Rayman Project
@Abeedo
Isn't Origins fully in Rayman Legends on Switch ?
Re: Ubisoft Appears To Be Teasing A Rayman Project
Yes ! A Netflix show ! Another one ! Because everything needs to become a Netflix show.

If you can't put away 2$ a week, buying 25 yeard old roms might not be your biggest problem.

@Grumblevolcano Thanks, I didn't catch that figure.
Re: Your Favourite Mario Characters Will Appear In Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics
They need to tell us how much of the game we can play online. That's a key feature for this game !
Re: The Retail Release Of The Wonderful 101: Remastered Has Been Delayed
@thesilverbrick That's very frustration indeed.
Re: Soapbox: Switch Really Needs Games Like Excitebike 64, Wave Race, 1080° Snowboarding And, Yes, F-Zero

The N64 iteration is my favourite with four different islands, but I think the graphics and framerate didn't age very well. Today I'd say Pilotwings Resort on 3DS is the way to go (and you should find that one for cheap).

@Silly_G Yes ! Also, being ablo to play as Nintendo characters (even if the game doesn't need it at all) would be very good for sales, and incorporate well with the Mario Kart / Golf / Tennis... declinaison.
Re: Soapbox: Switch Really Needs Games Like Excitebike 64, Wave Race, 1080° Snowboarding And, Yes, F-Zero
PilotWings before any of those.
I don't understand how this series can get so little love...

Re: Bandai Namco Hosts Nintendo Switch eShop Sale, Up To 50% Off Top Games (Europe)
