@Rozetta Not being able to give things like this a chance will eventually be your downfall. Hiding behind a screen and insulting people's hard work. They did what they could to make these games presentable, and that's all you can say. How lame.
@romanista Exactly, but what else can they do to promote this game nobody really cares about, due to being overshadowed by Mario Kart World (no pun intended)?
@JohnnyMind I agree. It only makes sense to have the entirety of them on the latest consoles. That way, the new generation can enjoy them just as much as we did.
@MrDocena She seriously doesn't like them? It'd literally the first thing she'll hear when she wakes up? Why wouldn't she want that to be something that sounds nice?
@MrDocena Those who think it's goofy must be some boring people, let me tell you. I'd rather it remain "goofy" than get oversimplified, like so many iconic logos have become. It may be "goofy", but that's exactly why it's brimming with so much personality.
@RupeeClock Oh, yes, it's a truly important thing. It's one of the most crucial things you see for success, after all. That's why it's sad to me that Pokkén Tournament went nowhere, because that unique take on the Pokémon formula is exactly what the franchise needed. Legends: Z-A could've been based on Pokkén, but no. It's just the same tired format we've always had.
@HellbladesFFXI If you haven't watched the V.O.D. yet, you have missed out on quite a lot of crucial information. But yes, you are correct about it being confirmed in the first Donkey Kong Country that Cranky Kong was the original "Donkey Kong", and he passed the title down to the current one. Overall, though, I thank you for being one of the few to give the redesign a chance.
@Kazman2007 But I'll admit it was partially my fault for not being clear with my first reply to you, so I guess there's still a lot for me to learn, as well.
@Kazman2007 I get that this is just a website where we talk about Nintendo stuff, but you should never have replied to me the first time, if you were going to ignore my reply where I explained to you what I initially meant. Maybe you did read it and just thought a reply to it didn't matter. But you've got to understand it's rude to just leave people hanging like that.
@NolandC Unfortunately, it isn't surprising that some people are still thinking that way. Some people are just shallow in their views on the issue and stick to the first thing they believed. You don't bother with the people who do that crap; they're already made up their weak, feeble minds.
@Kazman2007 Still ignoring the replies you're getting, I see. Why bother replying to people if you're too lazy to reply back? Why would you leave people handing like that? Learn how to actually talk to people when you're on this website. Otherwise, don't bother commenting at all.
@StewdaMegaManNerd A "crap-fest" that got downloaded over 200 million times and became Nintendo's second-highest grossing mobile game. It's nobody's fault but you're own that you're too shortsighted to give it a chance.
People not respecting Nintendo and datamining their games once again, I see. Spoiling the surprises they've got in store for us because people are impatient and just want to get everything immediately. Datamining is no different from leaking: Something done by people who've no damn attention span and can't wait for something like everybody else.
@Galaxy2IsTheGOAT Exactly. I think that's what this whiny people behind their computer screens aren't understanding. I'm not surprised they don't understand, though, because their takes on the matter are so surface-level that it's just pathetic to witness.
@MrDocena Yes, Americans have a habit of being figuratively and literally shortsighted like that. Sometimes, unless you outright spell things out for them, they'll completely miss the point.
@Kazman2007 I find it unfortunate how you're so disengaged with what happens on this website that you couldn't be bothered to reply to my comment on that other post. Especially when I attempted to reword my statement to help you understand where I was initially coming from.
@TenEighty You'd seriously allow what the title of this article says to make you lambast the Switch 2 like that? Especially when it isn't even out yet and this is just the one game? That right there is what I find to be the real sad thing.
@Vectrex The cases for the Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS were the best, in my opinion. They were small enough to put away pretty much anywhere, and the box art of most of the games were incredible to behold.
@BlueBCA Come on. Did you really think Nintendo would actually go that far and include characters from the spin-off games? There was never going to be a time a character from a Mario RPG would ended up on this roster. It would've been amazing, but Nintendo are as strict as you can get when it comes to what can or can't be in their games. The classic enemies were the only other things we could've gotten.
@Kazman2007 My apologies. I ended up getting off-track with what I meant to write to you. I meant that I find it a little unfortunate how people would stick to one character like that. Especially when it's due to a meme. There're going to be dozens of characters in this game, but players will likely only play as a handful of them. And people will only play as the Cow because it's obviously become a meme.
I find it sad how they've got such large plastic cases for such tiny game cards. If there were at least a game manual in the case, or the cover were reversible, it'd be worth it. But the fact that these cases are so large, yet all that's inside them are those little game cards and nothing else? Honestly feels like a waste of resources to me.

@Kindly_Warlord A nice gaming session with your siblings. Sounds very cute.

Re: SEGA Unveils New Sonic 'Racing Around The World' Campaign
@Kienda And yes, that game will likely still sell terribly compared to Mario Kart World.
Re: SEGA Unveils New Sonic 'Racing Around The World' Campaign
@calbeau That wasn't confirmed at all. Don't spread lies.
Re: SEGA Unveils New Sonic 'Racing Around The World' Campaign
@RainbowGazelle You're very wise, then, because one Red Bull alone contains nearly 40 grams of sugar.
Re: Shenmue III On Switch 2? Publisher's Latest Tease Suggests It Might Be Happening
@Shaunholio I can see why you're so interested. You've got a screenshot of one of the game as your profile picture. That's dedication right there!
Re: Shenmue III On Switch 2? Publisher's Latest Tease Suggests It Might Be Happening
@FragRed Redundancy's commonplace in the videogame industry, actually. Just look at how many times Street Fighter II was re-released.

Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Explains Why Donkey Kong Has Been Redesigned
@OwenGamer22 He really wasn't. Most of the time, he just looked like he was angry and all he really did in terms of expression was flash his teeth.
