@thomystic. It probably never comes up because it does emulate them. The only thing to watch would be loading a save state saved before unlocking something as the entire game sets to that timeframe.
I am pretty average at most things. I hate the attitude on games like Rocket League where you are 2-0 down and the rest of the team want to forfeit. Is winning all that matters?
However, I am pretty good at Sensible World of Soccer!
@TheLightSpirit I think you were right. I remember a mission annoying me as you had about 60 seconds to come back from being 7-0 down, but if you got a super shot in they would save them. Don't get me wrong, still a good game but the simpler Gamecube game was just more fun.
@mcpedwards Certainly in Europe (UK) the eshop says you will get the bonus 250 points after a voucher purchase. This makes sense as the other 250 points would be for buying the game, but these points were received when buying the vouchers. I think it is pretty good of Nintendo really.
I found her a bit too arrogant, liked the yellow leader but they were a bit too left wing for my tastes! Went with the blue lot but I just have to recruit the guy with the ill-fitting shirt!
@UmbreonsPapa I agree with what you say. There is a very aggressive reaction to this and I really cannot see why. People seem to expect the earth when a full years membership equates to £1.50 a month. It is probably worth it if you only want one of the three main things it offers (online, cloud, classic games).
As for people who come onto websites to complain... I have no idea. I Scuba Dive regularly and therefore have no reason to go to surfing website just to have a whinge about how i don't like surfing. But horses for courses and all that!
Hmm, one must consider the spectacular view of the castle, absolutely no demons floating around. Also how much is Council Tax and are the nearby schools any good?
If they launched a VC on Switch but my large collection of Wii & Wii U VC games did not come over without having to buy them again I would be far more annoyed than the way they are doing things now. If the other ten games were NES games they would have just announced them with the others. I sense something a bit more modern will make up the other 10. They will probably just be SNES games but if they want to really draw people in to subscribe a Mario 64, Ocarina of Time or dare I say a Gamecube game could really bring in those big numbers.
I think the support the 3DS is similar to how the original DS was a 'third pillar' or how every manufacturer says the old console will be supported even after release of the new one. Time will tell of course but if Switch does well, 3DS will be let to fade away.
We will just have to agree to disagree on this one.
I think it's a fairly obvious assumption. They are clearly putting all of their console and handheld eggs in one basket so their biggest handheld franchise is bound to appear.

@Mana_Knight So I just logged in using Chrome on an incognito window. Edited my address details and date of birth etc. Now it works!
Re: Deals: Get Discounted Switch eShop Credit, Games And More In The Nintendo Life Store Sale
@Mana_Knight Yeah it makes no sense. Strangely this happened to me on the PureXBOX codes site, but not the old Nintendolife Codes site.

I loved the original but something about the Wii game just wasn't my cup of tea. I think it was the stupid 5 goal supershots and the weird powers.

Re: Here's Why Nintendo Switch Games Cost More Than Those For Other Consoles
@bolt05
All fun aside I only made my original comment as the article originally said 25%. We're all thinking alike though which is excellent.
Re: Here's Why Nintendo Switch Games Cost More Than Those For Other Consoles
@bolt05
Indeed. We could get super pedantic and say it's more than a third. It's 39.99/29.99, not 40/30. Take it from this former Chemistry Teacher
Re: Here's Why Nintendo Switch Games Cost More Than Those For Other Consoles
Hmm, isn't it 33% more expensive?
