I just bought a Winter Tom Nook from them, yesterday. Had to buy either a Boo Plush OR A LEGO Super Mario Power-Up pack to qualify for Free Shipping. I remember buying Winter Isabelle from the Nintendo Store, and I loved it because she is so super soft, even without her Winter clothes on! It's all in how stuffed or moderately stuffed they can be, where you would get that peak softness that makes any Build-A-Bear product... perfect. I also spent 600 Platinum Points on a Switch Game Card Case. I wish we had the option to buy replacement game box covers for games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. The printout I have doesn't have the same oomph.
@Otoemetry If that is true, then Nintendo might as well announce that they're ending amiibo entirely, making them utterly worthless, and instead, will make their perks as add-ons you can either buy with eShop currency, or extras you have to unlock by fulfilling certain conditions within the games, just like old times.
If Nintendo released Soundtrack CDs to America, we'd be plagued by scalpers and people who upload to downloads.khinsider.com, and sooner or later, people WILL be forced to buy these to keep record labels in business, once Nintendo goes after KHInsider.com.
I don't know if anyone cares, but Build-A-Bear had recently updated the "Coming Soon" section, and Pokemon is one of those things. I have reason to believe that the next Pokemon plush might end up being Leafeon, considering the last one was Glaceon.
But that has nothing to do with this commercial, which was interesting.
They won't stop with YouTube videos. They'll end up striking the Downloads section of KHinsider.com, like SEGA did with most of their music, and all those Nintendo Soundtracks will be down, until we are forced to buy the music from Japan, or from eBay. Not to mention bring our Switch systems and be forced to listen to the music, only to have our Switches stolen.
@Arawn93 Well, if Keanu is looking for a new role to play, I have an idea for one: Shadow the Hedgehog. He seems right for the role of the Ultimate Life Form in a future Sonic movie.
I'll skip it. I mean, sure, I'm tempted, but I have the two separate season sets on Blu-Ray. I DID, pre-order the AOSTH set from RightStuf Anime, though. I mean, watching "Role Models," made me not only pine for Sonic X, but also ask myself and everyone on forums "Why can't Sonic be like that nice boy, Mario?" Little brat!
And speaking of Mario, I would love to see a more COMPLETE set of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show on Blu-Ray, with not only the Mario Episodes, but also the Legend of Zelda episodes with the Live-Action Segments included. Maybe the paisanos at Discotek Media could pull that off, unless those live-action segments are not even present.
Well, if it seems like a Prodigious time to announce anything Digimon, that day seems fitting for it. And I know we won't see any other games remade, but I'd love to see the Digimon Adventure RPG from the PSP end up remade, After Last Evolution Kizuna, I need SOME taste of Digimon Adventure in my life.
@JasmineDragon Well, I think it's because they think they don't have the time to say the whole words!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ze9XKVHB-yA - Look at this bit of Strong Bad Email, where Strong Bad says "Fan FICTION, Because I have plenty of time to say both syllables!"
@roy130390 There's a mod that lets you have nude villagers and NPCs. It even makes player characters nude, and adds genitals to every character, with a catch; if you have a male, you would see a female character with a penis, and other way around. Of course, they recommend NOT connecting to the Internet when playing with a modded Switch. They're working on making the new characters added naked, as well. I just hope we can see Lottie, and Digby naked.
@BlackenedHalo In other words, the dream is dead. They probably got wise to us after we used hakchi to mod the first two. They would've bundled it with a USB-C cable that is for power only, no data transfer, so you can't add games to it.
Also, the semiconductor shortage affects everything, including Nintendo device manufacturing.
Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space and Shovel Knight: Pocket Dungeon for me. Assuming that Disney Plus and Christmas Shopping don't kill that chance for me.
There's no Online version in America, because America prefers Final Fantasy over Dragon Quest. I mean, compare Hero's reception to Sephiroth's. And besides, We might as well call Dragon Quest X "Discoveries of the Undeciphered," based on its Altar name.
"I WILL kill him... If he doesn't put on some more clothes. Eugh, molded plastic panties." - Strong Bad, for the Poopsmith, The House That Gave Sucky Tricks.
Personally, I'll wait a few years before getting a Series X. At least he can play Rare Replay, if he didn't have it before. I recommend Conker's Bad Fur Day, it's excellent, so much that famous 3D Model Maker JC Thornton made models of Conker, Berri, and other characters from the game.
Brendan Fraser looked better on Horse, and he could sit on him backwards, when he played that heroic Mountie of the North, Dudley Do-Right. I loved that movie. Might be a reason for me to want to move to Canada in the future, though it seems unlikely.
Animal Crossing New Horizons to fund Redd's store, buy some crops from Lief, do a bit of Happy Home Paradise, maybe try yo improve the island a bit more, and sample the Roost.
Also some Dragon Quest XI S. I just beat Booga enough for Jade to have her revenge on him, and Hell hath no fury like a woman who's been brainwashed into doing his sick and twisted dirty work.
I bought Happy Home Paradise yesterday, with a $20 eShop card, $3 discount from Gold Coins, and about $2.50. I anticipated the update, so I moved my house to a beach, and used where it used to be as garden space, next to the pumpkins. By all accounts, if I move places, and decorate some empty spots, I'll have a 5-Star island in no time.
@Ryu_Niiyama You know, that's playable, too. Still, considering that my mom said that Christmas was not gonna be as great as last year, I went and pre-ordered it, and paid for it, months ago. Maybe I'll end up getting the book "Ask Iwata" for Christmas.
Good thing I got what I wanted. I still have a folding cloth storage basket from the Club Nintendo days, and use it for holding things. It has my Animal Crossing amiibo figures, and other Switch controllers. I even still have all my physical rewards from Club Nintendo, Smash 2-CD set, Majora's Mask Soundtrack, Mario Hat, Mario Pins, Mario and Friends figurine, and the Game & Watch Ball handheld.
Well, I'm glad I couldn't afford the upgrade, but did I have to waste money on a Tribute 64 Wireless controller? I'll just blow $25 on Happy Home Paradise, which should've been a full game, as well. Could've used Digby, unless he was a patsy in Lyle's scam.
Well, for those who don't have it, or the Super Scope, a Joy-Com will do, because not only is it light, but we can re-center the reticle with a button push.
@RupeeClock For me, I only have to pay for 3 Months remaining, at first, then I will pay for a full year of it. So a full year of service costs $30, and at 6 Months Remaining, it's $15, so I have to pay about $7.50. I just hope we get Prepaid Cards that let you pay for the NSO Expansion Pack.
I'll go for it. I got Retro-Bit Controllers to go with the service. Since there's really no N64 Classic Edition coming, this is the only modern way to play N64 games. As for Genesis, I got the Genesis Mini, so I'm kind of good.
I got them all. I got Piranha Plant for Free, like a lot of people, and the rest, I chose to go for the Fighters Passes. With the big titles that released on the Switch, I made the right choice to upgrade to a higher capacity Micro SDXC Card. I just wish I could remove the write protection from Windows 10, even though the Write Protection is off on the adapter for Micro SD Cards.
I just completed World of Light 100%, so I might start New Game + with Sora.
@NotoriousWhiz Achievements lead to ego boosts. If you get more, you get a swelled head. And Nintendo doesn't want to have sexual predators attract attention on the Voice chat. Remember, they're not a multimedia company, like Sony is, or like how Microsoft is.
And remember, music rights are what's keeping EarthBound, EarthBound Beginnings and Mother 3 from being released as a Limited Time Bundle with a Physical box and a Digital Code. They should just say it: EarthBound Collection, Featuring Ness and Lucas from Super Smash Bros.
Good thing I got my 2.4ghz Tribute 64 Controller. Maybe they'll release an update with the mapping to match the Official Switch controller. Or at the very least, a Bluetooth version with added Capture Button.
Who wants to bet that Retro-Bit Gaming will release a Switch Version of their popular Tribute 64 Controllers, with ZL and ZR Buttons, Home and Capture Buttons, and more?
I think the Chip Shortage is why Nintendo is doing this instead of making an N64 Classic Edition. How are you gonna put in the Rumble Pak and the Memory Pak into the controller without opening the door for it to be Hakchi'd, giving everyone a chance to add the games they WANTED, as long as it's within the boundaries of limitations?
