Re: Stardock CEO Says Nintendo Switch Doesn't Need Third Party Support To Succeed

@Ricube

There may not be a lot of people who are heartbroken about this, but I would buy stardock games on my Switch instead of my PC if they were available.

If you somehow just try to be something between knees and back and try to act all clever then you really should go and check Stardock catalogue, which is full of great games and they own rights to many great IP's that they are rebooting.

Re: Feature: What We Expect From the Nintendo Direct - 12th April

Splatoon 2 gets some specs, no release date.

ARMS gets full treatment, turns out to be quite limited and small title, will fail horribly. Little Mac is teased as a character.

3DS will probably be Dragon Quest that was already announced by Square. Maybe Ever Oasis. That's about it.

Maybe Amiibos, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe gets a peek for some odd reason, as if everyone wasn't already familiar with it.

And then as a surprise at the end, there will be. Nothing.

That should keep my expectations in check.

Re: Poll: What Wii U Ports Would You Like to Play on Nintendo Switch?

@Yasume

Switch isn't bought for exclusives only. It is bought as a hybrid.

There are tens of millions of gamers who would love to play Smash, Mario Maker, Mario Kart etc. and buying Switch for these is a viable option for previous WiiU owners but more importantly as an auxiliary console to their preferred powerhouse.

Switch absolutely needs the best ports from Wii U, just because there are fantastic games that not enough people got to buy.

I selected over ten games in the poll before I realized you could only select three.

Paper Mario is a Must

It took 16 comments before someone used the SJW acronym.

That has to be some sort of an internet record in the 2010's.

Anyone using SJW as a slur is of course on the same level as any and all Scooby-Do villains in their political and social expertise.

"Boohoo, all dem SJW's and snowflakes want to shut us up".

No.

They just use their right of free speech to tell you that you are morons.

Because ultimately that is what you are if you are incapable of making a difference between action and consequence, freedom of speech and responsibilities of that freedom.

Re: Talking Point: Splatoon 2 is Set to be a Vital Early Arrival on Nintendo Switch

Splatoon, from the first quirky announcement video that produced a small "meh" to the frantic and hilarious nightly sessions was truly the gem in the WiiU for me.

I have never been a good fps player. In this. It doesn't matter as I don't have to have headshots or stay continually alive. I can specialize in something or just go rampant with my splattershot.

Loved it. It's one of the things I still pop into my WiiU now that I have only Paper Mario to play for and then my entire backlog of games has been completed.

Just in time for Switch

And another post for peeps here because I believe in the herd intelligence and my google skills are lacking.

What was the name of the game rumored to come for switch in which there were rolling monsters in an arena trying to push each other off from it. It was from some quite well known studio but I can't find it anywhere.

Re: There Are Now Over 100 Games from 70+ Developers in the Works for Nintendo Switch

@Flexbro27 I have no doubt about that. I believe the very strong rumors about the Mario rabbids crossover and I believe that it will be good. Ninty has quite high standards (except for Olympic games recently ;_; )

Steep is good multiplatform game and if the Beyond Good and Evil sequel really comes for Switch then my mind will be blown

Ubi gets way too much hate for all the support they've actually shown to WiiU

Re: There Are Now Over 100 Games from 70+ Developers in the Works for Nintendo Switch

Only AAA company that is actually throwing any sort of weight behind its words is of course again the much slandered Ubisoft.

Any other colossi of the Video Gaming world are merely doing what they did with WiiU. They are dipping their toes in the water and then quickly getting away.

Of these 100+ games I will bet anyone for an amiibo or other such neat little thing that at least 50+ are games that are already out on other devices and at least 25+ small indie titles that are not exclusive.

And even that 25+ original games for Switch is A MASSIVE reach.

Nintendo isn't doomed. But they sure as hell ain't flying the rainbow road either.

Re: Kimishima on the Role of the 3DS After the Switch Launch

Timppis

This means one thing and one thing only.

Droughts for Switch.

Why would the 3rd parties that can do simple games for 60+ million 3DS users go for Switch?

How can Nintendo create more games for the Switch if they still divide their time between 3DS and Switch.

This is the stupidest thing they can do atm.
