Re: Fire Emblem Fates Removes 'Petting' Feature in Western Localisation

Vincent294

It's stupid that they removed the feature altogether (though I can see why they removed the drugging scene and incest), but is it really that big of a deal? It's a (insert profanity here) strategy game, if it needed some stupid dating feature to please you I find it just as sadistic as Sarkeesian. All hail the drama kings and queens.

Re: The Pokémon Company Sues Fan for Copyright Infringement, Demands $4,000 in Damages

@Ralizah Same here. I was on the fence about getting Pokemon X & Y, but I think I know what I'm doing now. Somewhere some stupid businessman thinks he's gonna make money off this. Maybe with a rushed AAA, but this? Give me a break. Can't wait for this to bite them back in the you know what. Maybe then they'll start acting like rational human beings. After Apple vs Samsung and the declining quality of the Windows iTunes client I've boycotted Apple. Seems like The Pokemon Company's next.

Re: Exclusive: Project CARS "Simply Too Much For Wii U", Developer Now Waiting On New Nintendo Hardware

@Ryno Do not acknowledge that Skyrim, Mirror's Edge, Metal Gear Solid V, Halo 3, The Last of Us, and Read Dead Redemption are good games. Ever. They're all just a bunch of generic, underwhelming rehashes as only Nintendo is capable of good games, as if Star Fox Zero, Animal Crossing Amiibo Festival, and Metroid Federation Force don't exist. At least Zelda and Fire Emblem still look good.

Re: Project H.A.M.M.E.R. Exposé Reveals Torrid State Of Affairs At Nintendo Software Technology

@FLUX_CAPACITOR I gave up on talking to you like an adult when you pretended that the dysfunctionality of NST wasn't an issue [see: your response to Retro's post]. Sorry if I was too humble so as to not make you feel more intelligent than I am. Did this seriously not strike you as the least bit problematic? I know most things at Nintendo aren't this bad, but the fact that it got this bad is yet another sign things need to change. Next thing I know I'm gonna see you pretend that PlayStation Now pricing or Don Mattrick's Xbox One statements aren't issues. Racial infighting sounds proportionate, doesn't it? If this is just how much the head honchos up at the big N will let slide until it's too late, it's no wonder they let all their other relationships go to s*** until all they had left was the indies. Heck, I'm surprised they didn't let that go either.

@AyeHaley At least you can feel good about this: you're not one of them. Their mindsets will all be in the grave along with them someday, as few will come out of it, and just as few will carry it on. They won't be missed. I've had my arse handed to me on a silver platter by girls in Smash Bros, and I had the mental kahunas to accept it without having to come up with some crazy conspiracy theory to give me peace of mind.

Re: Zelda Lookalike Oceanhorn: Monster Of Uncharted Seas Could Be Sailing To Consoles

I'm all for tributes to video games and this guy does seem to have a more honest operation going than say, some Minecraft clone, but he's still playing it a little too safe. He should change it up a little more. With more work, as he actually does seem to care about making games (at least to some extent), it could be more distinct, but as it is now I would've never ported it to PC let alone considered consoles. It has a little more ways to go creatively before it's worthy of competing with its influences when it's still so close to them.

Re: YouTube Stars Aren't Happy With Nintendo's Revenue-Sharing 'Creators Program'

Vincent294

Nice job Nintendo, throwing away free marketing. They can do what they want, but I'm not a blind Nintendo fanboy, I'll say it like it is: they're shooting themselves in the foot. There's no other way to say it without running away from the truth. The YouTubers (whether you like them or not is a whole nother matter) supply the videos, commentary, and gameplay, the game developers make the game. The former get the revenue, the latter gets the advertising. A win-win situation. Why you would discourage such is mind-blowingly stupid. Say what you will about whether you think they're entertaining enough to merit their wages, all parties win from them. Nintendo is in the right legal grounds to do this of course, it's just not a bright idea. I love Nintendo, but not unconditionally. Blindly cheering them on no matter what they do like a Vita fanboy is stupid.

Re: Super Smash Bros. Tournament Organiser Steps Down Following Allegations Of Sexual Harassment

@LUIGITORNADO Here's the story, as noted earlier in the comments: "@AugustusOxy @TobiasAmaranth Jesus. It's like you don't pay attention. The dude was hitting on a 14 year old, "I'd totally go pedo for u". This isn't just some guy going "Ehhh bby wan some fuk" it was a guy harassing people. If you want the actual story, go look at the multiple threads on /r/smashbros."

@Chrizzel28 Some feminists make me wonder, but I don't think this is one of those cases. The people refuting this are either really freaking cynical, in denial, or both. Generally I'd refrain from such titles, and have thus far, but in my mind I'm pretty sure that the commenter in question (AugustusOxy) may very well be sexist, or at least one hell of a hypocrite.

Re: Super Smash Bros. Tournament Organiser Steps Down Following Allegations Of Sexual Harassment

@HappyMaskedGuy Yeah. Social darwinism will do its duty. That guy should promote that perv in question in front of his family, around his friends, and inside his church if he has one. It doesn't take a second to know what people would think of him. Trash standards. No wonder he has to give this crap on the internet, I wouldn't be surprised if he started some too with the guy who was stalking him. Who knows? Hard to take anything he says seriously. For all we know, his definition of wronged could be being upheld to basic standards.
