Hold on!! She just flat out admitted that she declined to voice Bayonetta in the game after refusing to accept the pay that she was offered. She's only hurting herself so why the heck is she complaining? I mean, really.
While the controversy is debatable, I don't think everyone will boycott the game. Gamers don't buy games for the voice acting, they buy games for the gameplay.
I like this updated policy. Customers think just because the slogan says "the customer is always right" means they are entitled to treat these workers like crap and get what they demanded. But in reality, the customer is not always right and what a customer sees, isn't always what they get. I'm glad the new policy says that they will not repair or replace a customer's products if what they do is in violation of it. After all, every business reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.
@ALinkttPresent exactly! When I booted my switch and saw that there's an update pending, I quickly went to my settings, super excited about the new features that comes from the update, but all we got is some stupid stability and the ability to snap screenshots on the Switch Online menu. A real waste of version numbers.๐
@Anti-Matter I also believe Chris Pratt voicing Mario was okay. I also believe that it's fine if a character we all know and love gets voiced by a different actor for one media.
Although we'll have to wait and see how well Chris Pratt will do voicing Mario, since it's only a teaser trailer.
@Anti-Matter I agree with you. And also if the haters don't like it, then they shouldn't see the movie instead of complaining. Problem solved.๐คทโโ๏ธ
I'm not gonna even pay any mind to rumors of an upcoming Nintendo Direct because every time I get my hopes too high, it's no Nintendo Direct or it's a game specific Direct that I'm not interested in, and then im disappointed. So I just take the rumors with a grain of salt.
@Andigaming when you say "variable", do you mean like an option to choose "resolution mode or "performance mode"; like Switch version of Pac-man World Re-pac?
@Arawn93 I don't know if you didn't read my comment throughly or your trying to start an argument in the comment section because I told you twice that it's my opinion. And if you can't accept that, then that's your problem, really.๐คทโโ๏ธ And since you are probably trying to start a fight, I have no choice but to block you. Observe. There. Now you have a nice life๐๐
@Synthatron_Prime I agree with you. Maybe if Nintendo comes out with the rumored Nintendo Switch Pro, they system maybe, just maybe run at 60fps locked or higher (although I'm not gonna push it farther, but it all the depends on how powerful their new system will be).
@Arawn93 Also I said "as a 60fps gamer, I find 30fps inadequate" not "as a 120fps gamer, I find 60fps inadequate", so I don't really know where you got that 120fps comment from.
That's just my opinion and how I like a video game's frame rate to run. If this is how I feel, then my opinion is not hurting anyone.๐คทโโ๏ธ
I'm sorry but in my opinion: As a 60fps gamer, I find 30fps to be inadequate for me. 60fps, for me, is the way of gaming.
Anyway, I still love Mr. Sakurai 's videos about the technical details of video games like framerate, freezes when hit with a devastating blow.
@Tasuki True. I agree with your comment that says "a person in charge should know what their employees are doing while on the clock", however it would be unfair for the higher-ups (even good and honest ones) to be fired if they are still unaware of what's going on if say, for example, the people who answers to the higher-ups tries to cover it up.
@CharlieGirl I understand. As long as the accused don't get the book tossed at them without due process like some Kangaroo court. However, I still don't know the facts of the situation since I wasn't there. But I know many company in the world gotten themselves in these messy situations like these type of allegations like Activision Blizzard. Whatever the outcome is, I hope they resolve the situation.
I know many companies that are guilty about these types of allegations, like Activision Blizzard for example. But to me, something doesn't look right by the new allegations against NoA: First there was a complaint NoA and now sexual harassment?
I don't know if this is true or someone who works in the company is disgruntled and has something against the company, either way, I don't work there, I don't know the facts (there's no doubt that there will be an internal investigation) , but TWO things that I want to say:
I hope they get the situation taken care of and I am still a fan of Nintendo for their beloved games that still brings out the kid in me.
Tbh, I think that there's nothing new about this 3rd iteration of Splatoon either then new costumes and new stages, which is just about it, so that's a pass for me, unfortunately.
Summer 2023 is a long wait, but I am so happy that it's confirmed to be ported to the switch. I loved the first game and I wonder how the sequel is gonna turn out. I can HARDLY WAIT!

I agree with JH, we should all be calm and collected.

While the controversy is debatable, I don't think everyone will boycott the game. Gamers don't buy games for the voice acting, they buy games for the gameplay.
Re: Nintendo Updates Repair Regulations To Protect Staff From Customer Harassment

Re: Sonic Team Unveils New Animated Logo
I like it. It reminds me of the 2008 SEGA logo.
Re: Rumour: Sonic Frontiers Will Reportedly Target 30fps On Switch
Yeah I'm not suprised that Frontiers will run in 30fps. I mean, Forces and Colors Ultimate ran 30fps on Switch so who else isn't suprised.
Re: Switch's Officially-Licensed Micro SD Card Collection Expands With New Fortnite Designs
Cute, but I'm gonna stick with my 1TB microSD card that I got while it was on sale.
Re: Talking Point: What Did You Think Of The September 2022 Nintendo Direct?
@Member_the_game I agree with you. This direct was rather meh. Too many rpgs and too many farming simulators.
Also I was really expecting Smash 64 rather than that Goldeneye game in the N64 announcements.
Re: Nintendo Switch Sports Golf Will Tee Off A Bit Later Than Expected
Honestly, Nintendo Switch Sports needs more sports .

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Splatoon 3
It's good that the game is getting good reviews but Splatoon is not my cup of tea. I'll not be picking this one up unfortunately.

Re: New Report Alleges Sexual Harassment And Discrimination At Nintendo Of America
@Tasuki Keep in mind that this is allegations against Nintendo of America, not Nintendo Co. Ltd (Japan)
Re: New Report Alleges Sexual Harassment And Discrimination At Nintendo Of America
@blindsquarel that may be so, but remember: Innocent until proven guilty.
