I wish Nintendo didn't impose these restrictions on their devs. It doesn't prevent the game from being good, and I can understand having some restrictions on how characters are depicted, but this is too far.

@Varkster Yeah, the critically acclaimed Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric was based on CryEngine on Wii U. The Wii U was a different architecture than Switch.

In computer science we always say use git. I learned the hard way overwriting homework. git wasn't a thing back then though. Version control sucked back then, so I can't blame them for not having it.

If Bethesda just released a volume 1 and promised a free volume 2 to purchasers this could have been avoided. I'm sure they considered it and decided against it because of the advertised pre-order bonus, but they already delayed it once. They've disappointed more fans than if they delayed it. Sure Mick Gordon could have been more timely but they hired him only 3 months before release. What were they expecting?

Glad to see they found better times, Red Dead is great.

Aww, they should have used it.

It's a trap!

They also leaked the working title of the game. It's called Assassin's Creed Not Prince of Persia.
Edit: In all seriousness pyramids could be fun.

@MarcelRguez It better be indestructible and consume energy like an original 3DS.
Edit: feeds 3DS Cybervoost Proenergy bar

Well it does this for one:

@Tyranexx But what about a pineapple?

Either it's just a reference, or Tinkle's Match 3 $ Fest is about to be a thing. Probably (and hopefully) it's the former.

@Jamotello

@Neurotic_Biotic To be fair Phantom Hourglass worked...

@Kirk Pretty sure MS can decide what they do and don't want on their store, and if you don't like it boycott them. It's not like they're being prejudiced or anti-competitive, they just don't want to enter this gray area. This would allow you to load any ROM, including pirated ones. Sure, it can be used legally, but it's still an unprecedented ability to pirate games on a video game console. They still offer it on PC, Mobile, and even HoloLens. I can see both sides to this argument, but it ain't a crime to go either way.

@Luna_110 I think he wants to make history.

@LetsGoRetro Edgy. You just graduate middle school? Nah, that'd be too old for that. It might just blow your mind, but just cause you disagree with someone doesn't mean you have to call to arms to attack them off the site. I'm a professional world-renowned douche bag expert and I know a douche when I see one.

Not surprised, can see why they did it. Will Edge be for a JavaScript-based solution?

@plug313 Highly doubt Nintendo or Sony would let that through.

This'll be interesting. 1 way this could go is MS could force them to blacklist certain ROMs, especially if one for the original Xbox comes out. Most likely Nintendo's lawyers will be foaming at the mouth but kept on a leash.

@rjejr It's not surprising in the least, but it doesn't make it burn any less than being roasted by a witty sentient ex-oven.

@jimi If something's overpriced and piracy doesn't exist it just won't sell. If it's reasonably priced, some will still pirate it because cheapskates.

@Kirk It was acting funny shortly before it went down and came back up within an hour, likely emergency.

@faint It'll be interesting if an Xbox emulator becomes available on the One.

@SunshineHunter If they sue that doesn't make it lawful, because unless they change the law it would be frivolous.

@Samurai_Goroh Nintendo did crack down on a Pokemon party, and it's not like the emulators on Android are under attack.

@SunshineHunter He is right cause it is within the law, it being in the shop is a testament to that.

@Billsama I'm good. Think I'll be using my Wii with an NES Mini controller when those come. Just saying the law is the law and not all emulation is bad. I got plenty of games on my Xbox One.

@faint True, but shareholders won't be happy. The NX will probably get by at the least. I bet it'll do well.

@SanderEvers It's a console. If it was a Windows 10 PC with exclusive games you could sideload software. Unless you're in Dev Mode with the source code for a UWP app, you can't.
Edit: It is the only console with modding. But other than that, it just has better app support than its rivals. If you can say just anyways.

@Anti-Matter Edgy

@ironside1911

If the NX flops, Nintendo will have their own "Sega Dreamcast" scenario and will resort to publishing games through emulators [...]

Fixed that for you.

@Billsama It's certainly a precedent. Will be interesting to see how high this charts assuming it launches.

Hey, the site's back up. No wonder there were so many double posts. Mods gonna clean up this place?, not everyone will.

@ALinkttPresent Emulators aren't illegal, only pirated ROMs are (though practically all ROMs are pirated). MS will almost certainly allow this so long as it contains none bundled. They did on PC and mobile. Interesting gray area to come out of universal apps though. On a related note, I know the weather app recently started working. Brings back memories from the Wii.

@rjejr Likely downloaded through Edge (Microsoft's new browser), synced through OneDrive (Microsoft's cloud storage service), or read off a USB stick.

@khaosklub For what it's worth it wouldn't cost much if any more to have a better art style.

Cool stuff.

A shame, and if what we've heard about the NX is correct, it probably won't be able to handle this game for that matter. At least this looks good (and is from what I've heard), hence why I'll be getting this for my Xbox today. Still, maybe the console market is too crowded for Nintendo. On handheld they'll miss out on 3rd party games like this, but they'll have little competition to worry about.

@-DEMISE- Only on a smartphone can you judge it. And only the 3DS can show the 3D effect, which is pretty well done in this game.

@Marmaduck 3. Roy's innocent.

@SheldonRandoms There's no reasoning with trolls. Good luck, I doubt that's the last of him/'em.

@Shampoo Says the new user...IP ban now.

@Dio Your choice of username for your stunt double is less original than this game's art style. Have fun being IP banned.

@Diortem Really nailing that Kardashian impression.

@Diortem He does control how people behave. I don't like this either, but that doesn't mean you have to do a Kardashian impression.

So it plays well. Still, that chili art style is awful. Probably won't get it, but good to hear it's not all bad.

I bet it's Nintendo asking them for Fallout Shelter, maybe a last gen port like Skyrim at best. Highly unlikely Bethesda is willing to port anything current gen to NX, even if the GPU is all that the CPU is still ARM.
