Cloud gaming is NOT a total bust. I use a cloud gaming service other than Stadia or Nvidia on a daily basis. I get a fully fledged gaming (gtx 2080) pc on basically any device with a screen for about 15 euros a month. Heck, even the Switch should be possible.
About the input lag: I live in the Netherlands. I have 13ms to the datacenter and the datacenter has at most 20 ms to any online game. I wouldnt do e-sports with it. But I am playing CoD, The Witcher, Black Desert and many more online games without any problems.
Yes, a proper internet connection is required. I need 25mb download for crystal crisp image. 10-15 for slightly blurry. On the go I can use my mobile (4G) with an xbox controller without any problems. When I go trough a tunnel or change towers, there is a moment of lag.
Google Stadia's reason for underperforming is definitely not because of poor internet connection. Google made a closed system. Nobody could use their own games on Stadia. Everybody had to buy everything from Google.
I did not want to do this, so did many + false 4K advertising...
Nintendo should have a plan when the new generation does not want to buy a Nintendo console because they can play any playstation, xbox and pc game on any screen. This isnt even the future, most of this is already happening today and will be mainstream in max 5-10 years. 5G can even make it happen sooner.
I generally don't like to judge about things that I haven't done, seen, tasted or felt. Trying is the ONLY way to find out whether or not you like it, in my opinion that is of course.
Hah. Don't forget that its probably not waterproof. For that price it would be the same as using a basic gaming pc with fan openings at the top as a coffee table.
For those interested: for the last couple of weeks the 3DS family has been outselling XBone worldwide by quite a margin. Not bad huh? I'm interested to see what that means for the handheld's future.
That was soooooo unexpected. Pretty silly to compare these two consoles because the screen sizes and the distance to screen is (generally) very different.
It quite astonishes me to see that the game is so popular. In my small town in The Netherlands (where Pokemon Go isn't even released yet) people are already organizing events with hundreds, somethimes even thousands, of people signing up.
But on the forums it's hidden away behind a couple of pages. Wouldn't it be easier and nicer once in a while to have such an event showing up on the front page?
"If ONM were still around, we'd be running through every single theory about Breath of the Wild, ranking every single Sun & Moon Pokémon by coolness and choosing which celebrity we think should voice the English version of Detective Pikachu. It would have been glorious"
Why wouldnt all this awesomeness be possibly implemented here on Nintendolife?? I would love to have some more interaction with fellow fans on the news site that is more than just a poll....
Very interesting indeed, but hardly a suprise. It will be more interesting to see how the rest of the world receives it. In my opinion, the real challenge still lies ahead.

Re: Gen II Roll-Out Begins in Pokémon GO
Ahhh finally the long awaited Gen2. If only I wouldn't freeze my *** off when I would go outside.
By spring I imagine Gen 2 is fully released. However, I would like to have that special Pickachu, especially with the new trading feature.
Re: Video: Super Mario Run Commercial Is Packed With Sprinting But Light On Gameplay Footage
I actually think that this is a great commercial.

Re: eBay Feeds The Scalper Within You By Offering Guaranteed Profit On Your NES Classic Mini
I don't have that much spare cash laying around. If I were to live in USA I would consider it. Turning 60$ into 226$ in 7 days is sort of tempting.
Supply and demand right? However, I do hate those that buy tons of NES minis and keeping them from the general public that way.

Re: Pokémon GO Player Apparently Gets Belgium's Biggest Mobile Network Banned
This article is not up to date. The ban has already been lifted. Proximus approached Niantic and they solved the issue.
Re: Video: Check Out This New Trailer for Pokémon Sun and Moon
@BertoFlyingFox
The XL version is by far the most popular one in Japan, so it makes sense to showcase it on that model in a japanese commercial.
Re: Pokémon GO Begins Gradual European Roll-Out With Arrival in Germany
Very interesting... At fist I did not intend to download the game, but all the hype has got me wanting it now..

Re: Pokémon GO Success Causes Nintendo Share Price To Surge, But Teething Troubles Frustrate
I have to admit I really did not think that the game would be quite this popular
Re: Poll: As The amiibo Collection Hits 100, What's The Current State of Play?
It would be interesting to add a poll about how many Amiibo people have.. Like 0-5, 5-10 etc...
Re: Pokémon GO Success Causes Nintendo Share Price To Surge, But Teething Troubles Frustrate
I don't like pokemon GO at all..

Just a suggestion:

Re: Reaction: The NX Release in March 2017 and How It Changes the Game

Re: Merchoid Has The Perfect Clothing To Celebrate Zelda's 30th
That conversion rate is terrible... $54.99 equals less than 50 euros, not 59.99.
