@blindsquarel Nope! There are plenty of Lego Nintendo sets. From Luigi's Mansion to $160 Mario 64 adult Lego sets based off the games. Sony recently made like a fan made ~$100 Lego set for Horizon Zero Dawn I think too. LEGO is a massive multi-billion dollar company basically with as much influence as Nintendo. Most game devs/publishers would kill to have their game he a Lego set. From Minecraft to Star Wars Battlefront EA there are entire lines of video game sets
The Lego set for Horizon is selling really well I think. I could see a set for BOTW being a no brainer with how popular it is too. I feel like with this type of set it would make sense for it to be ever so slightly downsized though. I love Link's equipment in this and the figures. For a really big set you might want a guardian which would be a really good equivalent to the Sony walker giraffe thing in Horizon (yes I know I still need to play that game)
I likely couldn't get this to work in my area since it's more open. But I do have friends and family I could force to get out their 3ds's if we ever want to. This brings back memories
@6thHorizon I think that will be the Wii U as their last quirky system. For all of it's flaws it is amazing. It almost feels like a PSP/Vita is more weird than a Switch from what I know but I never owned one, only a couple people I saw at school and my cousin
Not as cool as the Splatoon one that I wish I would have gotten or Nintendo should refresh but these are still insanely sweet. Skyward Sword Joycons will always be the sweetest though by a factor of ten. It is impossible to make something that looks better than them I am glad I got them.
@Jacket_p this is the most uneducated and unresearched reply on a topic I have ever seen in a long while. A real shame since from my research this Ludwig guy actually stands to be losing a lot of money and is doing it to make other people happy. The main reason he can stand to lose a ton of money is due to his exclusivity agreement with Google giving him financial security.
@Archius9 !!! Thank you so much! I had no idea somehow missed the news that came out 2 weeks ago. Some people like me were starting to assume it sadly got cancelled I am so happy it's not! I look forward to it coming out next month
I think you'd be crazy to expect any of them besides Outerwilds and Silksong, maybe on an extremely slim chance Genshin Impact in 2023. The rest are coming later. Nintendo hasn't even shown off a trailer for Metroid Prime 4 yet it's probably releasing cross platform with whatever console replaces the Switch like Wii U owners got screwed waiting for Zelda Wii U aka Breath of the Wild
The character design seems like a step up from other FE games. Really looking forward to this one. Don't know what their obsession with blue hair on blue outfit and red hair is though in the older games
I miss when they made the Nintendo TV stuff on 3DS with the little shorts and animations. I can't exactly remember what the application was called but it was fun
I am almost willing to accept the obvious drop in quality simply because we are getting 48 of them for for $10!! I still think we should all push Nintendo to do better, not rush their products and give all the tracks the time they need. But they were already pro consumer with allowing people who haven't bought it to play and 48 tracks for $10 so I am not too upset. All the tracks are very well designed too, "Sky-High Sundae" is the only one that feels like a mod track you'd see added in Mario Kart Wii, but it plays amazing at 200cc which makes up for it imo.
Wasn't sure if I was going to buy it, but following the announcement that friends can play it or you can get randomly matched into it online (a very pro consumer move) I am buying it and super hyped for what comes
I prefer 2d sprite artstyle but the only thing I really dislike about this is the characters. The rest is pretty good, although I'd almost prefer if it was gridbased over full 360 the walking is unnatural. Will say I am very glad it's not Sword and Shield's artsyles
@saintayu this is a super ignorant comment. Porting games is a lot of work, you have to make those settings, utilize the right graphic technologies, and make many difficult decisions. Lots games have important system/resource loops that are so integrated into the game you have to completely change them. If it was really as easy as just "changing a few settings," flipping a few switches almost every single developer would do it and bad ports would be near non-existent.
I remember reading a similar story with Breath of the Wild and they let this guy play it before he died before it released. So I have no doubt they will let this guy play it. It was extremely sad though.
@GamingDude800 I've personally experienced no disconnects or noticeable lag since I bought it a year ago. But what do I know I'm the type of guy to buy a $100 wireless gaming mouse to play on his gaming laptop. At the end of the day it's just personal preference and it's okay to play that way. I still highly recommend checking it out if you ever become interested though
@GamingDude800 look up the gamesir G4S bluetooth controller on Google it attaches to your phone and provides physical buttons it's great for steam link games especially and emulators
Looks cool but I'll just keep playing these games off my phone with a gamesir Bluetooth controller or the actual joycons because they already pair with Android
