@Pod Well, I kind of buy too many games. Especially, when they're on sell. Heh. I like to read what others say about the game because some people really go into great details and explain it well. But, I know people can really abuse the review process and review bomb too. So, I guess there's pros and cons to it.
@ModdedInkling Ya, I just know the problem is there but I mainly use my Switch docked. At least docked for a while because of Covid. I am too scared to go out much or travel right now. Hehe
Maybe Nintendo finally fixed the Joycon drift. Or maybe they finally redid their dumb store format. God I hate navigating the store. It's like Nintendo doesn't know how to bring their store format into the 21st century. Well, I can only dream I guess.
Hmm, maybe they had to re-film stuff but it was really hard to shoot a fighting scene because of social distancing. (Just pretend that they didn't finish the movie in 2017.)
What?! You posted another video again! Don't you realize that you're spoiling people? Now, half the world's population won't know how to spell because they aren't reading anymore. Earth is now doomed! We won't be able to colonize Mars now because people will forget how to talk. The astronauts on the way to Mars will just grunt at each other. This is a sad day for humankind. I will now lock myself in my closet and cry.
Anyone else getting sick or pissed off about games coming out that when released, are like alphas and betas? Or big hyped games that were in development for years but then after you buy the game and the story or whatever sucks because they changed the story six to twelve months before coming out and they didn't have enough time to finish it or whatever? Or how about big day one patches that fix a lot of crap but the game still needs months of patches to fix? Or games that were really hyped and shown features and maps etc that somehow aren't in the game when it releases? Or super short games that make you wonder how the game is even remotely worth $50 to $60 bucks or however expensive it was?
Of course this doesn't happen to every game but it does seem like it's getting a lot worse. I don't know about laws and legal stuff much but there aught to be protections against this stuff for people. I know one of the main reasons is money but it would be different if developers were honest and said, "Hey, this is where blah blah blah stands with our game but we need money rolling in to finish it.". I don't know, it's just evil how game companies shaft us so much, especially on PC games. >
I don't know if it's the same game but years back, I got this for my brother as a gag gift for his birthday. It was on PC and back when Gamestop still sold physical PC games. I even think my brother played it and he said it was stupidly funny. Heh
I did buy this but haven't played it yet, yes yes I know but that is what happens with a huge backlog. I tend to favor Rune Factory the most because I like combat. I mean, who wouldn't want to be a Warrior Farmer. Hehe. The real question is, how many farms have I inherited from family members? I can't run them all. :/
@Joeynator3000 I am superstitious a little. My numbers are 7 and 1. You posted at 7:11pm, was the 7th post, with 1 heart and also the next guy after you posted at 7:17pm. I hope something good happens. Hehe
My parents got me the NES for Christmas when I was young and they also said they would buy me one game too. So, we went to I think it was Sears or JCPenny. When we got to the NES section in the store, I saw Zelda II: The Adventure of Link and immediately knew I wanted that game. I took that game home (omg it was a gold cartridge too) and fell in love with it. I wouldn't beat the game till months later as I would start over again from the beginning many times. I loved it and that game made me a Zelda/Link fan ever since.
P.S. Thank you Nintendo for the fond memories that I have from your games.
Nintendo just wants to force people to buy some of their games before they get pulled. It's really a slap in the face to Nintendo fans as we would've bought most of the games anyway. By pulling content, Nintendo thinks it can sell a lot but forgets that people would continue to purchase "said" game for years. So, it really comes down to burst sales vs longterm sales.
@Eel @Pokejackofalltrades I apologize for my actions. I just couldn't believe someone would necro a thread and then take my comment for such seriousness when I was joking. Anyway, I reacted poorly and I am sorry.
@Orpheus79V Oh, ty for the info. I didn't know about any info really. I like Sonic as I played some of the games when I was younger but haven't played any for a while. Maybe some of the old voices will come back?
Really? Death threats and other threats because of censorship... ... ... I wonder why someone would make a death threat over sexualized material. How about you just don't buy the game? It's like a movie, TV series or HBO or Showtime... if it's not what you like then just don't watch it. Remember "just do it", well this time "just don't do it".
Honestly, I believe that you should separate the indies and triple AAA developers and have Top 50 for indies and then Top 50 for the others. For the most part, the bigger developers can spend millions on games and dwarfs the money that most indie devs have access to. There are also a lot more people making those games in bigger companies and you're basically saying that a small number of people in an indie company should be compared to hundreds of people in bigger companies. I feel that is a disservice to the bigger devs by including indies in the same list. By doing this, you can rate more indies and triple AAA that deserve to be listed. I mean, you can't compare Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Call of Duty, The Elder Scrolls and others with an indie platformer. Anyway, this is just my two cents and thank you for reading this.
Maybe their working Switch was switched with a broken Switch which wasn't the Switch that the switched customer wanted but decided to fill out the Online form to get their bad Switch switched out for a new Switch and now the switched customer is no longer switched and is now a new proud owner of a Nintendo Switch... which wasn't switched out... because it's working fine now.
So sad when someone takes their own life. Everyone, if you're that down and low, please get help. You may think that nobody cares about you but I promise, if you reach out to others for help, there are many many people that will step up to help you! Stay in the fight!
Another thing to remember, is the people left behind, the people that love you, now have a hole in their heart. Taking your own life is never ok! Every single life is precious! Please seek help for yourself!!! Don't let anxiety, depression or whatever keep you from seeking help. You start by taking ONE STEP FORWARD and you KEEP taking more steps until you get help.
If there's anyone that's reading this and you need someone to talk to, you MESSAGE ME and I WILL HELP YOU take your second step. Believe me when I say all of this because there was a point in my life, where I was in your shoes but I actually tried suicide but THANK GOD I didn't die. You ARE loved and if you think nobody will love you, then I will love you. Take the first step toward healing. Please!
Also, if you're a Veteran and need help, message me and I will help you get the help you need because I am a Veteran myself. DON'T GIVE UP!!!
So, you really think Nintendo or any other big company would agree that illegally copied Smash Bro Melee is ok? Did the organizers get with Nintendo to see what options they have? You do realize that Nintendo has a reputation and image that they're trying to protect. Nintendo is known as a family and "clean" company. Also, the main Nintendo company is a Japanese company so they're not an American or European company and we must realize that they are fiercely protective of their image.
Another thing that's dumb is people bringing their "Smash Brother Melee" problem into Splatoon. Instead of crying about not being able to play melee, why doesn't someone become a leader and get with Nintendo and see if there's a way for melee to still happen but in the right way. I mean, you can be a little sheep all your life if you want but all the crying isn't going to do anything till someone stands up. It almost feels like that the internet and social media is just a platform for people to whine and complain to each other like the celebrities do.
Anyway, sorry if I angered anyone with this post. I just thought I would post my thoughts or rather my whining.
You mean to tell me that Nintendo wasted all these precious resources for videos & screenshots transfers instead of making more games!!! I am going to smash some bunnies tonight!!! ARGH! Ok, I'm only kidding. Hehe
Well he should've maybe told his Mom that they were valuable. Also, what Mom throws away stuff that she knows is her son's and doesn't ask him if he wants to keep it? It's both of their faults in my opinion.
@electrolite77 Thank you for your response. I have been focusing on consoles and I didn't even think about all of the gaming platforms. After looking at that graph, I was amazed at how big the mobile gaming market is. Even though I don't play games on my phone anymore, it makes sense with Microsoft looking at the whole pie and not just a slice. Cool.
@electrolite77 You're right, Microsoft wants Game Pass subs. I just wonder how much money Microsoft gets if I bought one new Xbox game every month vs paying $10/mon for Game Pass. The only problem I see with Game Pass, is if they decided to do away with it or it tanked in the future, then the only games you would have, would be the ones you bought. Also, Microsoft isn't really making money off of Game Pass yet and I've seen an article where they said all of this and said the longer Game Pass stays alive, then the more Microsoft will get.
