@AtlanteanMan Perhaps Political in/correctness is funnier when Jesus takes the wheel, if you wheel. Satire only works if it knows it is satire. Games that come labeled upfront like satire are akin to Monty Python. Even then, the thing needs a degree/balance of unreality(for me) to be enjoyed as such. What is your say on it? Hopefully you didn't comment solely to deride a whole comment page.
@NinjaGuy69 What you are describing is the economic hardships people are going through. Everyone collectively was under the understanding that workers needed to be paid, and Nintendo agreed, so it placed prices at 60$. Inflation has yielded this number due to time having an effect on money. Bad business is how Telltale games handled their IPs. Nintendo's approach may not be the best, but it certainly is not the worst.
On the other hand, Nintendo has to navigate an increasing number of entitled people that grew used to the prices of 20$ and 30$. They had to make a Decision whether paying their devs more(which IS scummy but money is money and who knows how many other games they are funding/developing) and sacrifice some of their fanbase financially (which happens already with the new Xbox and PS5s that were introduced) or let the people and their IPs die. Nintendo is the one bankrolling Metroid Dread, and I understand not all of us like fun, but if you don't want to pay to get in, You should talk to Nintendo about it directly, and leave the people whom will buy the game alone. We will have fun despite your spite.
@NinjaGuy69 Just call it inflation and move on. Most of the people complaining about the pricing of these things live in America, and it is well known in my circles that the minimum wage did not grow when the prices of goods skyrocketed.
The prices of Videogames reflect this inflation, but your paycheck has not. It is not Nintendo's fault but your own.
@HammerGalladeBro Probably to be able to include more colors to more video games and stuff. Remember when the rooms in your house in Pokemon Sword and Shield could be the colors of your Joy Cons? Something like that, I wager.
Leaks are what caused all the fangames to be copystriked so, yeah I don't like leaks. Also every time a leak comes up it's ALWAYS at the headlines. People are vocal about it and the magic is ruined because some nimrod's opinion on it stained it with neckbeard juice.
@BiscuitCrumbsInMyBed I agree, the Wii U was not a mistake, and it led to the switch, but it was still a peripheral nightmare. Controllers, as a rule, probably shouldn't be big or clunky in my opinion. The few exceptions to this is arcades(and accessibility options).
Y'all want RAYMOND?! Ha! I will not fathom what atrocity would befall such a plush! Smart to play it safe for now, but they are missing out on a boatload cause no Museum owl.
To me, BD/SP is more faithful to sinnoh because, if you haven't played D/P/Emerald, the overworld sprites look similar, as well as the transition to busts of the human sprites when a battle starts. It captures the original game's spirit!
@sandman89 I was stuck at that place for an embarrassing time to be honest! When I closed my DSi, it was in defeat. Lo and behold, it made me ecstatic to find out where the darned treasure was at!
@datamonkey The Hype train is in the conceptual phase. Although for Spirit Track, I could not get it due to budget constraints.
I think having Named Bungles would be great, like what the 3DS marketplace had going. Adventure pack, Train pack, Wahoo pack, Thunderdome pack, Rogueish pack; why not be able to wish list a pack?
@dequesi It may have happened in the past, but we'd never know of it because the movie itself would've disappeared. Sometimes these movies are branded as lost movies and would occasionally be revealed to the public after said producer/artist does the underground tango.
@fafonio Considering what is going on in China lately, the only way to get a good game past all the ***** censors is by going through the conglomerate that is Tencent. Don't blame Nintendo for trying to bring joy to those less fortunate.
