This is what the programmers wasted their time on instead of making some music for the Switch's eShop or giving it some more background color choices? Have those morons been fired yet? Cause they clearly got their priorities all mixed up.
@daveh30 You know what's really criminal? The fact that Nintendo never added any GameCube games to the Wii shopping channels catalogue despite the fact that some of the earlier models of the Wii supported GameCube cartridges and controllers.
@gortsi And who do we have to thank for that? That's right it's good old Iwata who thought that these kinds of tricks were acceptable in this day and age. Can't say that I'm glad that he's dead but with the mindset that he had in regards to this matter he sure wasn't doing the gamers that he claimed to be any favors.
@onex Uhm I don't recall people asking for something as pointless as a region lock to get added to their systems. In fact I've seen more petitions AGAINST the damn thing then there are in support of it.
@gortsi Isn't it a bit embarrassing that even after 7 years Nintendo still couldn't be bothered to remove that stupid region lock? Why did they even bother adding it onto the system in the first place? It ain't making them any money and it's an extremely anti consumer practice that rival companies like Sony and Microsoft have ditched for years now because they know how pointless and pathetic it is.
@ilovetotourz Nintendo absolutely deserves every kick in the teeth that they can possibly get after they "forgot" to remove the region lock from the 3DS family.
Really? This is what those fools are focused on? Have they still not realized that their game is missing the Dutch dub that should've been included in it from the beginning?
Why NES titles? It's about dang time that Nintendo starts digging through their GameCube catalogue and starts bringing games from that machine back. The fact that they never did that with the Wii is a damn shame and just goes to show that no matter how successful something might be for Nintendo they still can and will be lazy.
@flapjack-ashley If all of the parents who waited until Christmas to start using their new consoles just took their responsibilities and downloaded their stuff before Christmas then this wouldn't have been a problem.
@roy130390 While the digital format sounds nice and all it doesn't work all that well on a system like the 3DS that doesn't have any cloud functionalities whatsoever.
@Dang69 Oh you mean those things that sell out as quickly if not quicker then the amiibo did back in the day? The things that never seem to reach store shelves?
@roy130390 If they have their reasons for ignoring Europe then it's about time that they start sharing those reasons with the public rather then keeping them a secret.
Nothing for the 3DS version I see. Oh well. I expected nothing less from a company like Inti Creates who continue to refuse to bring the physical 3DS version of that striker pack to European retail shelves.
I'm surprised that you guys find a box with nothing but a piece of paper in it acceptable nowadays. Especially when the Japanese get a much better version of said box with some extras in it.
Maybe you should hire a Dutch person to look though Dutch retail sites to help you guys out. Cause all of these deals are pretty much useless for those of us who don't live in the US or UK.
I ain't supporting Inti Creates until they finally give us European folks the physical 3DS Gunvolt striker pack that we deserve. Their laziness in that regard should not be rewarded.
It's sad to see that Nintendo still hasn't figured out how to include some proper anti theft techniques into their systems. Even their $300+ lunch box that they call the Switch doesn't seem to have anything in that regard on board. Priorities are really messed up over there in Japan I guess.
From what I've heard only the Bowser plush will come with a sound chip. Can anyone confirm this? Also if this does turn out to be true is there any reason why only Bowser got a sound chip?
Can we please stop calling the 3DS's region lock a legacy? Cause it's more of a curse that Nintendo's too lazy/ignorant to undo then anything else. And the fact that Iwata defended it when he was still alive was absolutely disgusting. To this day I still can't believe that the man who helped Nintendo become what it is today ever defended such appalling things like that.
Does it include a Dutch dub for this game too? No? Ok. Off to Mario Odyssey I go then. At least that game has a valid excuse for not having a dub of any language in it.
Oh look. Another thing that Nintendo will never make enough of to satisfy the demand. It seems that they haven't learned a thing from the horrible release of that Metroid Legacy Edition.
Here's one reason why you shouldn't play it: BECAUSE NINTENDO DOES NOT DESERVE TO BE REWARDED FOR PURPOSEFULLY LEAVING THE DUTCH DUB OUT OF THIS GAME!!!

Re: Random: The Switch Actually Says "Good Night" When You Put It To Sleep
@Paraka They eventually add the music made into the code of the eShop don't they?
Re: Random: The Switch Actually Says "Good Night" When You Put It To Sleep
@Maxz Because adding useless garbage in the code of a €300+ machine is not what they should get paid for.
Re: Random: The Switch Actually Says "Good Night" When You Put It To Sleep
@Maxz Re-read the article before you respond next time. It clearly says that we as consumers will never see that message at all.

Re: Switch Owner Is Reunited With Their Lost Handheld Thanks To Reddit
Meanwhile Nintendo's €300+ lunchbox doesn't even have a GPS receiver built-in to it. Silly naive Japanese dummies.
Re: Switch Hackers Declare That a Homebrew Launcher Will Be Available 'Soon'
@gortsi I fear that that will be the unfortunate truth.
Re: Switch Hackers Declare That a Homebrew Launcher Will Be Available 'Soon'
@gortsi He did state that he was in support of it as evidenced by this article about it: http://m.au.ign.com/articles/2013/07/03/nintendos-president-discusses-region-locking
Re: Feature: What We Want From Nintendo In 2018
@1UP_MARIO That's why Nintendo gave it an SD card slot as well.

So hoping for cloud save functions for the 3DS as well was too much asked?
Re: Switch Hackers Declare That a Homebrew Launcher Will Be Available 'Soon'

Re: Super Mario Odyssey Soundtrack Coming to iTunes Tomorrow, CD Collection Next Year
And as usual no Google play music release. Gotta love how lazy and pathetic Nintendo can be when it comes to releasing stuff like this.

Re: Nintendo UK Opens Pre-Orders on New 2DS XL Pikachu Edition and Pokémon Crystal 'Boxed Version'
@SM4SHshorts Shame on you for supporting Nintendo's scummy business practices. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Ah Nintendo. You never fail to show me just how wack your priorities really are.
Re: Deals: Pokémon Gift Ideas: Clothing, Toys, Games, Plush And Merchandise

Re: Poll: Surprise! A New Zelda Is In Development, But What Do You Want From It?
A Dutch dub would be nice but Nintendo will probably be too lazy to deliver us that so.

Re: Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 Are Arriving on Switch in February
So we'll never see a 3DS version of those games I guess? What a waste of development time then.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Wins Game of the Year at The Game Awards
This game did not deserve that prize at all since Nintendo purposely left out the Dutch dub that should've been in this game from the get go.
