That headline has to be the funniest thing I read all week. At first, I thought Kate wrote this; it seems right up her alley to write something like that.
All in all, it was a nice read. But, the headline is the only thing that people will remember from this or bother to read past it( I can name a few users that can attest to this). If that's what you're going for, good job. If not, I say work on that.
People on here need to calm down. I don't care for these personal pieces; I don't click on them or even bother to respond to them. Life's too short to be getting angry over something so minuscule such as this.
@TheFrenchiestFry Your standards must be so low that you think those three are actually good, hahaha. And, I'm not just talking about the current comic runs; I'm talking years and years of utter junk that Marvel & DC have been spilling out. I can give you some examples of the trash Marvel has been spewing if you like.
I wonder how permadeath would work if there is permadeath in this game. I don't think Disney would be too happy with their heroes dying in a videogame.
If this were EA or Activision, everyone here giving this company a pass would be ripping them apart. Don't let your love for this company blind you, for god's sake.
@Grumblevolcano Why? Stubbs is a classic as well as Republic Commando. Replacing Stubbs with Commando wouldn't have changed how mediocre the direct was.
@OctoCallie20 It's not always about selling units. It's about breaking even. For example, BOTW needed 2 million copies to break even and recoup development costs. And with the scope of that game, you honestly think Skyward Sword selling 3 million units wasn't a success for Nintendo?
Comparing both titles is insane. Skyward Sword was released on the Wii's last legs. Compare to BOTW? Being a launch title to a hyped-up console that was advertised everywhere. Every mother, father, and kid knew this game, and the Switch was coming out. Of course, it outsold Skyward Sword.
But, what do I know? You're the expert on this sort of stuff. I'm just an idiot on the web.
Don't be smug when you clearly don't know what you're talking about.
What's so controversial about this streamer? And, no, I'm not reading those articles from Kotaku. If I wanted to read bias articles that go absolutely nowhere and don't tell you the whole story, I would go to any mainstream media site.
@nintey_cola "I'm bored. You're boring me." What are you, a pubescent brain dead child who needs to be entertained every second? Does someone need to bring out their keys to keep you from getting bored?
I wonder whatever happened to that Arms graphic novel from Dark Horse(the same publisher of this encyclopedia)? Must have been silently canned or just forgotten.
@setezerocinco Too much shovelware(mobile garbage flooding the Eshop), Can't find anything without spending half an hour scrolling through piles of trash, and no cart.
The search filters could also be a ton better, such as games released on the switch in a specific year, by publishers(capcom, Ubisoft, etc.), purely indies, hidden gems. Stuff like that to help people like me find something in this bland digital shop.

Re: AI: The Somnium Files – nirvanA Initiative Announced For Nintendo Switch
Oh! Out of nowhere!! I'm excited. The first one was a brilliant, memorable experience.
Re: Poll: How Hyped Are You For Nintendo's E3 Direct?
I would be excited If Nintendo would fix this damn downloading problem people( including myself) have been having for days now!
Re: Yuji Naka Parted Ways With Square Enix Following Balan Wonderworld's Release
@JuiceMan_V Cold, but honest truth. If you're horrible at your job, you'll get the boot.

Re: Rumour: 2K Set To Announce XCOM-Style Avengers Game At E3 2021
@TheFrenchiestFry Marvel comics have been terrible for years. So receiving new comics every week is something you shouldn't be boasting about that.

Re: Nintendo's E3 Direct To Air 15th June
I want to see footage of Bayonetta 3. It's a simple request Nintendo.
Re: Soapbox: Pokémon Legends: Arceus' Release Date Worries Me, But Hopefully I'm Wrong
I thought this would release in November of 2022, so it can be Nintendo's big holiday game.
Nonetheless, I think GF has enough time to make Legends, like every other past Pokemon entry, decent and passable.
Re: Yes, Link's Improved "Fast Travel" In Skyward Sword HD Really Does Seem To Be Locked Behind An amiibo
@Heavyarms55 $25 for a feature that's basically in every modern game, yet "This is an utter non-problem." The hell you on about, baby?
Re: Random: Fans Are Having A Field Day Reviewing Nintendo Switch's Calculator
This is the type of quality articles I expect from NL.
Re: Random: The Internet Goes Wild For New Waluigi Render
Daisy got some nice legs. And Peach is busty. Good job, Nintendo, and now add the gorgeous Pauline in this game.
Re: Random: Balan Wonderworld Accused Of Including "Knock-Off" Ghostbusters Song
It's sad to see an "established" gaming news site using Twitter posts as a source.
You can't keep doing these articles and slapping "Random" on them to cover your tracks, NL. Don't you have any integrity?

If this were EA or Activision, everyone here giving this company a pass would be ripping them apart. Don't let your love for this company blind you, for god's sake.
Re: Nintendo Thanks Fans For Celebrating Mario's 35th Anniversary
I still think it's pretty stupid to wipe out the entire existence of this Mario collection from the Eshop.
Re: Poll: Do You Like The Chibi Art Style In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl?
The models look like they're from those shovelware parties games that flooded the Wii.
Re: Introducing Pokémon Legends: Arceus, An Open-World Prequel To Diamond And Pearl
That looks rough. I hope this is an early build.
Re: Star Wars: Republic Commando Is Landing On Switch This April
@Grumblevolcano Why? Stubbs is a classic as well as Republic Commando. Replacing Stubbs with Commando wouldn't have changed how mediocre the direct was.

Re: Fans Should 'Forget About Bayonetta 3' For Now, Says Platinum's Hideki Kamiya
I understand this is a joke. But it's been three years, and we still haven't seen anything. This situation reminds me of ScaleBound.
Is Nintendo stopping Platinum from showing Bayonetta 3? If so, why? I don't remember Nintendo/Platinum keeping quiet with Bayo 2.
Re: Pokkén Tournament Producer Katsuhiro Harada Up For A Sequel, But Says It's Not Bandai Namco's Decision To Make
I never tried this game. I would if it ever lower it's the price. Not going to pay full price for a game that may or may not be dead.
Re: Capcom Broadcasting Resident Evil Showcase Next Week, Will Feature RE: Village And "More"
The woman got a nice pair. Good for her.
Re: Super Mario 3D World Trailer Shows Off Two Minutes Of Bowser's Fury Gameplay
Looks alright. Still, a neat looking boss fight is not enough for me to pay $60 for a Wiiu port.
Re: Retro Studios Still Needs A Boss / AI Designer, Just To Let You Know
I'm going to be in my death bed with my children and grandkids around me when this game comes out.
I do wonder which will we see first? Bayonetta 3? Or Metroid 4? I'm guessing BOTW 2.

Re: Naughty Game Starring Princess Peach Hit With Nintendo Copyright Complaint
@Ghostchip You're acting like such a prude lmao.
Re: Naughty Game Starring Princess Peach Hit With Nintendo Copyright Complaint
Why did Nintendo waste time on this? I played it, it's horrible. There's better peach stuff out there to hit your sack to.

Re: Dark Horse Publishing Sonic The Hedgehog Encyclopedia In 2021
I wonder whatever happened to that Arms graphic novel from Dark Horse(the same publisher of this encyclopedia)? Must have been silently canned or just forgotten.
Re: Rumour: Prince Of Persia Remake Won't Be Coming To Nintendo Switch After All
@mikegamer What? Nothing of value?
What are you talking about? The prince of Persia games are cult classics.
Re: Nintendo Reveals Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, A Game Set 100 Years Before Breath Of The Wild
I might be the only one, but I love Nintendo releasing things out of the blue. It's so in character for them, I love it.
Re: Most Animal Crossing: New Horizons Players Are In Their 20s And 30s

Re: Most Animal Crossing: New Horizons Players Are In Their 20s And 30s
I'm 89 and I don't play this. I don't play these baby games.
Re: Switch Pro Controller + Super Mario Odyssey Bundle Arriving Next Week (US)
@noobish_hat Not really. PowerA controllers are crap. The only redeeming qualities the controllers have are the designs.
Re: Switch Pro Controller + Super Mario Odyssey Bundle Arriving Next Week (US)
This is a good deal, to be honest. Wish I waited.
Re: Nintendo Announces Super Mario Remasters And Much More In Super Mario Bros. 35th Anniversary Direct
A limited digital release? Is that right? Why?

Add a cart and some music, and you're on your way to making the Eshop decent Nintendo.
Re: Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase Appears Out Of Nowhere, Watch It Here
That was something I guess. It's better than nothing I suppose.
Re: Rumour: Is The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Taking To The Skies On Nintendo Switch?
This article is just another rumor NL is covering without any proof to back it up—nothing new here.
Anyway, I'm not ashamed of absolutely loving this game. I loved it from beginning to end. I would gladly play it again.
Re: It Looks Like That F-Zero Twitter Account Is Fake
F-Zero fans are grasping for straws now.

Oh, crap with those SMT announcements. You got me again Atlus.
Re: Super Mario Sunshine Is Now 18 Years Old
I loved this game when I was a kid, still have my GC copy. For some reason, I never had the heart to get rid of it.
Re: Random: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Mod Swaps Snake For Ninja
Good work NL. Never change
