Re: Review: Metal Slug X (Switch eShop / Neo Geo)

WindWakerLink

I recently bought the Metal Slug collection games on Wii just to avoid having to buy them on the Switch. While I appreciate these games coming on the Switch, it's just not financially sound for me to buy them individually like that when having the collection on the Wii.

Glad for those getting to experience this on the go with the Switch. Must be nice.

Re: Super Mario Odyssey amiibo Packaging Reveals Three New Kingdoms

WindWakerLink

Love the box art for these amiibos. The world changing subtleness on the box is excellent. It really feels like we are going to travel all over the world.

Super Mario Odyssey is gonna be AWESOME! It's my MOST HYPED game for this latter half of 2017. It feels like Odyssey is going to have at least 15 kingdoms similar to how Super Mario 64 had 15 worlds more or least. Less than two months away from

'Odyssey, yessie! Odyssey, yessie! Odyssey, yessie! Odyssey, yessie! Odyssey, yessie! Odyssey! Odyssey!'

Re: Super Mario Odyssey Walks Away With Lots Of Gamescom Awards

WindWakerLink

"Other great news for Nintendo at Gamescom was that Metroid: Samus Returns won the "Best Mobile Game" award."

Metroid: Samus Returns is a mobile game? Since when???

Oh wait! do they mean "mobile" as in "handheld" and not "mobile" as in "phone"? If so, then pfffft! That should be more clear. This is not a knock on NintendoLife but more on the people who did the categories titles for 'mobile.'

Re: NBA 2K18 Will Launch Digitally First On Switch, Retail To Follow "Fall 2017"

WindWakerLink

Well, this bites! Something told me to not to preorder this game physically for the Switch but I want it physical for the box art. Haha.

Red flags for the Switch version of 2K18 went up for me when they originally said that the game was coming out on Monday 9/18/17 which made no sense at the time because games come out on Tuesdays and Fridays. Not Mondays.

Dang it. Digital it is then. Better than nothing at this point. I really want that 2K18 on the Switch so yea. Thats it.

Re: Gallery: A Look Back At Some Of Miiverse's Craziest And Most Beautiful Moments

WindWakerLink

The good, the bad, the ugly, the annoying of Miiverse!!! XD

I've met some wonderful people on Miiverse!

The communities were not TOXIC!!!!! Amazing!!!! Some trolls but nothing too crazy or dumb.

The early days of miiverse were fantastic but as we got the updates miiverse sucked so hard! The Miiverse police, as I call them, flagging things I posted. [Mostly Xenoblade Chronicles X stuff that I was addressing about their game such as NPC side mission of suicide and religion in the game...]

Miiverse...you are what made the Wii U stand out more. It was SO great that even Sony and Microsoft incorporated 'miiverse-like' things into their current gen systems. That alone makes Miiverse awesome but it's annoying! XD

Now...I'm just rambling. XD But whenever miiverse dies, i will say:

'Miiverse, thanks for the friends and memories I've made with ya. It's been real brah. Later.'

Re: Nintendo Apologizes for Switch Shortages, Promises an Increase in Production

WindWakerLink

This is why I was SO determined to get the Switch at launch...just to avoid this VERY SITUATION!!!! I had strong feeling the Switch would be like the original Wii situation with constant shortages and quick sellouts.

I often doubt if I should have gotten the Switch at launch. However! Whenever reading articles like this one, it reconfirms to me that I was right to get the Switch at launch!

I'm sorry for those that want a Switch but cant get one yet. Hopefully September Nintendo can have proper flow of Switches for people to buy. They may even have affordable & reasonable special edition bundle Switches by then too...unlike the $500 plus Switch bundles Gamestop annoying sells. Tch.

Re: Blaster Master Zero Has Been Downloaded 80,000 Times On Switch

WindWakerLink

Blaster Master Zero IS SO MUCH FUN!!!! Wow! I got this game ONLY because these guys made the Rock Man Zero series and Gunvolt which were awesome games! Playing through Blaster Master Zero was a little confusing at first but as you play it it gets better and better. The upgrades you get remind me so much of the Mega Man X series!

Side Note: The reason that fully pushed me to get Blaster Master Zero was actually the Gunvolt DLC where you get to play as Gunvolt! hahaha. I love Gunvolt! Dont judge me! XD XD

Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Direct Summary - 12th April

WindWakerLink

Am I the only one that was shocked that Splatoon 2 is coming out so late in July? I was hoping in June before or after E3. Splatoon 2 is a perfect summer game.

This was nice direct. Finally we getting the Cloud, Corrin & Bayonetta amiibo release dates. Cool. What is a little annoying about that however is that very quickly they said some of them would be store exclusives.... rolling my eyes

Re: Nintendo Confirms Switch Save Data Is Tied To The Console And Cannot Be Transferred

WindWakerLink

"On Nintendo Switch, game save data is stored on the console's System Memory. This will not change whether downloadable software or software from a game card is being played".

WAIT! WHAT?! Are they serious?! Even using the physical game card still saves to the system and not the game card itself??!! Why even bother with getting Micro SD Cards if everything is gonna just save to the system?! No...I must be reading this wrong. I have not eaten yet so maybe I'm seeing things. Yea, that's it. THAT BETTER BE IT!

Re: Pokémon Sun and Moon Demo Coming on 18th October, Starter Evolutions and More are Confirmed

WindWakerLink

Hmm... if the final evolutions of the starters vary between Sun and Moon, then that makes me hoarding the starters at the beginning a whole lot harder. XD XD XD

Ash-Greninja...cool idea bringing it to Sun & Moon but I would have like it better if we got to battle Ash as a secret boss or something, you know? Like you beat Ash and then he gives you his Greninja like how Battle City Tournament rules were in the Yugioh anime. You lost the duel, you lose your rare card. You lost to Ash, you lose your strongest pokemon [but of course if you lost, You reset your game in a heartbeat!!!! XD]

Those communication features is step up from Pokemon Platinum stuff. Very nice and cool call back.

Pokemon in the PC will actually do something!!! HYPE!!!!

Does anyone know if more info of Sun and Moon will be out b4 the games come out in November or this was it? [excluding leaks of course.]

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Has No Set Formula for Hardware Reveals, But NX is Testing Fans' Patience

WindWakerLink

There will probably be a Nintendo Direct for the NX in November 2016. It's getting silly but really starting not to care anymore. It's whatever at this point. Nintendo can do whatever they want.

People be too "thirsty" for this NX information. Calm down. They will give info on it when they feel like it. Go play other games in the meantime. They are so many. Relax. Chill. Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon come out next month.

Re: Risa Tabata Talks Paper Mario's New Focus on Puzzle-Solving

WindWakerLink

I can rant about Sticker Star and Color Splash all day long about how they ruined the series and all that but nope. I think...and maybe some of the Paper Mario fans will agree:

If Sticker Star and Color Splash were not called "Paper Mario" games and were their own thing, maybe the backlash would not be as hard? Kinda like Federation Force? Make it into your own game. Dont take a beloved franchise man and run it through the mud. Lame sauce.

Dunno. I'm definitely not getting Color Splash. I can't support the Sticker Star 2.0 Nope. Sorry but not sorry.
