Wow another retro styled dungeon crawler, I can't wait....

@RareFan
Sega gave up being important when they stopped publishing Bayonetta and let Nintendo take over

It's embarrassing how bias you are on the topic obviously, I love objective journalism. Maybe the vast majority of gamers, especially Nintendo gamers, could give two farts about esports.

Wow another endless old school "RPG" can't wait

@Kalmaro
I honestly had to re-read my comment like 10 times to figure out where I swore. Apparently it's too rough for you? You then need to disconnect from the internet

@Kalmaro
I hope they announce an update where they remove another 200 Pokemon and give you whiners super detailed Pokemon and the best trees ever featured in a video game.

So the iPad Pro doesn't exist in France? Last I heard many units were coming prebent due to it's extremely delicate nature

@TheAwesomeBowser
Epic is laughing all the way to the bank

@TechaNinja
Mario Maker 2 is still on the top sales chart in multiple regions, plus you know this is the first Holiday shopping season since it's been released right?

@AlphaElite
Indie games are not shovelware. Garfield Cart Racer is a much better example of shovelware

@farcry007
Says the guy/gal named Farcry

@Barbara001
He's not bulling anyone he, like myself, believe any stories about Nintendo Switch Lite stick drifting stories are one of the following:
1.) Complete lies for click bait
2.) Defective Units that simply need to be replaced from the store they got them from or Nintendo
3.) Abusive Switch Owners who are too rough on their equipment

@Username77
I had my first Switch from it's original release, and just recently got rid of it for the new revision with the better battery life. No issues with the joycons.

@gamefreak77
13.56 million Wii U consoles were sold and over 100 million games on it.

Just laughing thinking about all the reaction channels who will be freaking out the entire 24 hrs for views

@stevenw45
Let's see, purchase a $200 Switch Light. Abuse the joystick and cause a drift in it's first week of release. Record a video, and post it. Make a couple grand on all the click baiting views you knew you would get.

@Moroboshi876
Your loss. The game is currently work every penny and this indie studio deserves every dollar you can give them.

@mlj11
I've been gaming since 1986 on the probably Nintendo Entertainment System.

There are two reasons why:
1.) You are exceptionally rough on your joycons compensating for their small size

2.) A small percentage of any electronics have faulty units.

Both reasons don't equate to the joycon drift being on the same level as the red ring of death

@BenAV
I think you may be rougher to them then you think. It's weird that you have had a mountain of issues and I've had none. I play my Switch about 3 to 4 hrs undocked a day

@BarefootBowser
It's kind of like the ten articles and videos about the Switch Refresh and Switch Lite unboxings. Nothing was truly different but they milked the crap out of it

I think user abuse has to be taken into effect. Many people are into competitive gaming which unknowingly cause them to be rougher on their equipment. Myself I play all genres of games and usually move on from a game if I catch myself getting to worked up. On my day one Switch and two additional sets of joycons I've had zero drift

@diwdiws
I think you have no argument which will make ROMs seem legal in any way shape or form. You just really like free games and hate working for what you have

To be fair:

@Cotillion
Retro fitting HD graphical upgrade, multiplayer support, and save states may take a bit more energy than you give them credit for. On top of all that, Nintendo didn't make all of the games for the NES and SNES, so they have work out contracts with every studio they want to include.

@diwdiws
That court case does not pertain to copying or downloading a copy of a video game. It pertained to making a VHS recording of a TV show to watch at a different time or to time jump through the recording. Nice try but find something that actually has to do with ROMs

@diwdiws
Feel free to share a link showing that ROM creation or downloading of ROMs is protected under Fair Use

@Aaron101
The whole things people hinge to when justifying roms is they make or download the ROM of a legally owned game for preservation. In case their original ceases to work. However they then play said rom despite their original copy still fully existing which is illegal

@diwdiws
What is a legal rom?

According to Nintendo:

@Zeraki
If you snooze you lose. That's sad they won't be able to play it, but so is life and thank goodness there are thousands of other games they can play.

@Barbara001
You can soak up your tears with the avalanche of actual new games we are going to get between now and Animal Crossing.

@diwdiws
Emulation of illegal ROMS is still illegal. Nintendo didn't shut down several ROM sites because it was legal

@dewokkel
I am pretty certain they can't release the Donkey Kong trilogy because those were all made by Rare.

I'm calling a few things:
Overwatch announcement, available right after the stream
Super Mario Sunshine Mario Maker 2 Theme

Super Mario Sunshine DLC for Mario Odyssey

Huge update to Super Mario Party, including more boards, characters and online board play

Assassin's Creed 4/Rouge Bundle Officially announced

Tracer is Smash DLC character 4 or 5

New Luigi's Mansion 3 console and joycons, possibly pro controller, all glows in the dark

New Rayman game

Pikmin Trilogy

Metroid Prime Trilogy

@Quarth
If we can't get people to install a free launcher (Epic Store) on their PCs then how will we get them to spend at least $200 (Switch Lite) to play an exclusive title?

@Darkyoshi98
You can play the first game no problem, try to play the 2nd or 3rd game

@Zeraki
Tell the demo to a doomed game, and the fun but I beat it beat me up, that I'm busy playing Astral Chain

@Anti-Matter
I don't like to live surrounded by clutter. Also I can carry my entire Switch library (183 games) with me anywhere I go.

@Fazermint
Did I say the developed them? Think before you attack

Physical media is dying just like DVDs, Blu Rays, Music CDs before it games will become all digital as well and it will be fine. PC games have been all digital for years and nothing bad has happened

Glad to see movie tie in garbage games make a return. First Bubsy now this, what a time to be alive

@ELRinley
Sorry you couldn't come up with any rebuttals to mine. You must have been a blast in debate class.

I enjoy my Switch quite a bit, hell I have bought 4 of them lol. I can't help it if I found your list incredibly nit picky and though you have a few valid points none of them distract from the fact that I enjoy my Switch far more than my PS4 or PC.

Instead of a surprise release, they should have surprised us with holding it back and polishing it instead of releasing what looks like an alpha product to the World

@ELRinley
•Tends to feel like they don't care about Metroid, frankly. They're too busy making Mario and Zelda titles.

If Metroid games sold better then they would get as high priority as Mario and Zelda titles. Nintendo is a business and doesn't purposely like to waste resources to please a smaller fanbase.

•Samus Returns is physically painful to play in part because of their moronic can't-be-disabled aiming mechanic.

That's a personal opinion and one the majority of reviewers and users didn't complain about. Including myself.

•Splatoon AND Splatoon 2 restrict right thumbstick when in motion control mode, making the first game impossible for me to play and the second game REQUIRE handheld mode because thumbstick aiming is bad in most games and motion controls alone mean you'll be spinning and spinning and spinning all day.

Again a issue you personally had for whatever reason, that not a lot of others would agree with you. Including myself.

•How many wires does Splatoon 2 require, again, in order to play with voice chat? How many DEVICES? Now, how many wires does Fortnite require on the same system? Just one? Through the console's built-in TRRS jack? This proves that Nintendo could've actually baked it into the game, or failing that they could've fixed it retroactively.

Discord, it's beautifully easy to use, has text and voice chat. Frankly it's better than anything the PS4, or Xbox One have pre-built in. I wouldn't use a native Nintendo Switch online communication service even it became available. Discord also allows you to voice chat cross platform.

•Clunky menus in Breath of the Wild. No touch input despite being native to a system with touch input. RIP quality of life.

Again most of your issues seem like a you problem and no one else literally cares. Including myself.

•Smash Ultimate has some kind of weird control lag going on that all the Smash nerds keep snarling about. I don't remember the details well.

The reason you don't remember the details is because it's made up, you were grasping for straws to complain about the biggest Switch games and you failed. It's ok to admit failure.

Admittedly, though, the majority of burns come not from the games, but from the consoles. Almost all of them are software-related, however.

•Friend Codes were bad and are still in use. No unique-name or email type functions on the horizon.

Friend Codes do suck but aren't the end of the World, in fact every month or so I Photoshop a new Friend Code card that showcases the newest game I am looking forward to, it also displays which multiplayer games I am currently playing and will be playing soon.

•Nintendo ID is permanently bound to the Wii U.
https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/1088/~/how-to-delete-a-nintendo-network-id

No they are not

•No Bluetooth audio for the Switch, despite using Bluetooth hardware. The Switch Lite has the same problem. We shouldn't have to buy 3rd party hardware to make up for a software restriction that doesn't benefit anyone, Nintendo included.

This is as dumb as faulting the PS4 for having controllers and headsets that though they use Bluetooth to connect to the PS4 they do not connect natively to the PC via bluetooth.

•Extremely rudimentary and clunky library management on the Switch that only works fluidly for small libraries.

This one I will agree with you, and out of all the features I want immediately on the Switch, simply add folders it will help me manage my collection.

•Single-parent-only parental control app. Said app also places blanket rules over an entire Switch and cannot restrict per-account. And if you bring up "accounts don't have passwords," you'll just be ousting this as a compound flaw.

This is only really a problem with divorced parents, and then even then not a big issue. I simply have the app, I spoke with my ex-wife and set up the app with her. Boom problem solved

•The ENTIRE system governing the "3rd party docks brick Switch consoles" fiasco, which save for Nyko's awful blunder is 100% Nintendo's fault for taking a USB Implementer's Forum specification connector and communication standard and BREAKING specifications in a bunch of ways without communicating the differences to their users or industry partners and instead just doubling down on their Apple-esque "just buy our in-house accessories" rhetoric.

I have the officially licensed Switch backpack that can carry the official dock, not really a big issue. I think most people carting around the system portable don't really care about docking it.

•The amount of clunky, mangled, UX-devoid decisions put into every console's UI since the Wii, with the DS family's menu system frankly being some of the most irritating to use overall and the 3DS and Switch having no excuse given the amount of role models they now have running around.

So you brought up this issue multiple times, yes the menus are not the best, do they sicken or anger me no.

@ELRinley
That was one of the most nitpicky lists I've ever seen. However when I said they haven't burned us, I was talking about their games. Also ever hear of Discord, it makes team chat way easier

@graysoncharles
In the past action adventure games have sold better than RPGs. Also there really hasn't been a good Armor Core game in a while, where as the market has several RPGs a year. So I think the following will help:

1.) New IP from Nintendo
2.) Non-Saturated Genre
3.) Japanese gaming market

@graysoncharles
There are over 30 million Switches in the Wild. Even if 10 million thought like you that leaves over 20 million who could still buy the game, even if they sold only 4 million copies that would still be a success. Dameon X Machina is not a huge gamble for Nintendo.

But continue to allow you pre-judgment on an unfinished game, that was gracious enough to let you try it out, stop you from buying a copy. I'm sure something will eventually come out that suits you

@ELRinley
"Cool so basic game development? You all act like you have never played an alpha or beta demo before"

Nah. Just been burned too many times.

How many times has Nintendo burned you? Star Fox Zero and Mario's Missing? Usually with brand new IPs especially Nintendo pulls out all the stops to give their best effort to make a new IP that can have some legs. If any company has proven itself time and time again it's Nintendo.

@ELRinley
Hopefully you included your notes after playing the demo so they could make any changes or add stuff to the game. In the final couple of weeks before launch is a little late.

@konbinilife
It took a bit to get use to but once I did it felt great to play one handed

@graysoncharles
You can watch the videos of gameplay to see if they corrected what you didn't like. Nintendo doesn't need to release several demos for one game. Either buy it or don't, I am sure it will still be a success without you
