@TheExile285 It is a Warriors game set during the Imprisoning War. You pick a character and kick the ***** out of all the enemies on the screen, then go to a new location and kick the ***** out of those enemies. What else are you expecting from it?
When you see the UK prices, they really haven't upped the prices that much for the basic amiibo. They were £12.99 originally, and now £16.99. Sure, the bigger cycle one is more expensive, but the individual character ones are only slightly more expensive, which can simply be put down to normal inflation. Americans only have Trump tariffs to blame for their large price jumps.
With how badly they handled the PSP and the Vita, they should just stay away from the portable market. I'm not a hater, I own both handhelds. PSP was a great emulator machine if you got a hackable one, but not much else and the Vita was basically sent out and abandoned to die by Sony.
Mythologies Sub Zero might be a bad game, but it is the game that retconned the fact that Scorpion's family and clan was destroyed by Quan Chi. Until then, it was never said they were destroyed, and it was even hinted that his family was still alive in Scorpion's ending in the first game.
I wish they did more with the playable characters. Rather than just faceless generic players, there is no individuality behind them. I hoped that Nintendo was just using these characters as a stand in before coming up with an IP later, but sadly, no. As such, I really have no interest.
It is a double edged sword. If they made different size cards, some developers of larger games would buy the smallest one possible then force you to download the rest of the content.
I was hoping this was a tech demo that would be filled in with an actual IP later. They did that before with generic characters with the 3DS game Blast Ball before making it a Metroid themed game.
If I'm being honest, they should have delayed launching the Switch 2 so it launched with this and Mario Kart. Two mainline series games on day one would have been a better idea rather than delaying one for a month and a half.
As a child of the 80s, I wish Codemasters would do something with some of the other franchises they own. Codemasters used to be synonymous with fun, wacky games, now it is just racing game after racing game.
I hate to be that guy but this is just a reshaded Tears of the Kingdom. All the whimsy from the toon games is nowhere to be seen from the environments and the world. This is a lot of work but you need to do more than just update graphics and turn on the bloom.
I got mine today about 10am (UK time). I now have a Switch 2, Mario Kart, Gamecube controller, and Pro Controller on pre-order. Now time to figure out how to pay for it hehehe.
I wonder why I didn't get an invite for the Nintendo store. I've done everything they said would get you an invite. Maybe they are only doing a certain amount a day?
Nintendo need to drop the Mario Kart Direct now. If there is so much we don't know that justifies the price, then tell people. Having a Direct AFTER pre-orders go live is dumb.
Hopefully they reign in Jim Carrey in the next one. I liked him as Robotnik in the first two movies but he was a bit annoying in the third one. The whole "Gerald daddy issue" plot was funny for about 5 minutes. Sadly, it stayed around for most of the movie.
Why they are dragging their feet on the Rogue Squadron trilogy, I will not understand. Nintendo already has those in their back catalogue. Would it really take much to get them ported over to the Switch?
Nintendo has a problem with people distributing their ROMs, not the fact that ROMs exist. Stopping free distribution is about as far as they will go for most sites. They only go after people in court when they get financial gain from making their games available. Or, in the case of the Switch, that is current hardware and emulating it is costing them financially since they are currently making money from hardware and software sales.
Nintendo have been using emulators for years. The GBA Classic NES series was basically a cart with an emulator playing a NES ROM.
The old EU was never canon. Why are you complaining about what everyone already knew? That said, so what if it isn't canon? You can still enjoy the game.

Re: Abxylute's $1,700 Handheld PC Resurrects 3DS's Glasses-Free 3D, But Using Mario To Promote It Might Not Be The Best Idea
