I just want to know if it’s going to be compatible with Xbox play anywhere. If so I’ll buy it. I’d be great if I can pick it up where I left off on my PC/Xbox.
@Captain_Toad I am! I had a blast playing this game on my PS2 back in the day. I’m shocked it’s getting a rerelease tho considering no one seems to have remembered it. But I’m definitely happy it is.
I remember I was 7th grade when I picked up my blue 3DS back on launch day. My mom aloud me to miss that day of school to go get it, considering it was the only thing I was talking about for months. Now I'm a freshman in college, wondering where the time has gone (I think most of it went on Animal Crossing).
@Moshugan It all depends on the value of the currency. 60 dollars American is the same as say, 70 pounds. I'm pretty sure, but someone currect me if I'm wrong.
I enjoyed miivers quite a lot over the years, and as much as I'm sad to see it go I also understand that it's a part of the past. Besides, I might see a jump in my twitter followers.
It isn't a permanent price drop, is it? It says right in the tweet that it's "while supplies last". It's great for the holidays, but says nothing for the longevity of the system.
@RatKing64 I'm a huge collector of consoles and games, and that's exactly why I'm getting as many Wii U games as possible before I have to hunt for them later on.
@Link506 The point of the Switch isn't to be that next gen powerhouse console. It's appeal is in the fact that you can take your console games with you wherever you go, so even if it wasn't more powerful then Wii U, it's not the point. "They're letting 3DS live", that's PR talk, we've heard it before. If the Switch takes off, the 3DS will die a quick, silent death.
@Link506 You are looking at the Switch as a next gen home console, but it's not, It's more of a next generation handheld. However, even though it is about the size of a PS Vita, it is a step up from Wii U despite its small size.
Lol, everyone is wanting the Switch to have 8gb of ram, have at least 6 hours of battery life, and be no more then $300 USD. Not to mention people are still upset about the screen not being 1080p. Seriously, people need to start forming realistic expectations for a system that is primarily a handheld. For me, I'm going to be using it as a handheld mostly, so I'm comparing it to the specs of the 3DS; which is a huge improvement 😊
I'm looking at the Nintendo Switch doing VR in the same way I'm looking at the Wii U using 2 gamepads. Sure it can do it, but it will never be taken advantage of.

Great game with a great soundtrack. Looking forward to giving it a listen.
Re: Video: A Look At Some Of The Rarest Nintendo Consoles
@Lone_Beagle it’s not a Nintendo Life video. So I don’t think they care about ad revenue.
Re: Random: The Last Of Us Director Admits He's A Nintendo Fan In Podcast With Reggie Fils-Aimé
I’m not surprised. Anyone in the video game industry today was influenced by Nintendo to some degree.
Re: Random: At Reggie's First E3, Someone Thought He Was A Security Guard
Well, Reggie was about “kicking ass and taking names” at his first E3. So who can blame the guy.

Re: Payday 2 Announced For Nintendo Switch
Come on Nintendo fans, we have to do what we can to keep 3rd party companies on Nintendo.

Re: Sonic Mania Developer Clarifies Details About the Switch Port's Launch
It's too bad that the joy-cons don't have a proper D-pad for 2D games like this.
Re: Here's Why Nintendo Switch Games Cost More Than Those For Other Consoles
Is this problem only in the U.K.? $60 here in the U.S. is the standard price for new games.
Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd March (North America)
@Moshugan Thank you for correcting me! Differences in currency has never been my strongest subject😉
Re: Feature: A Nintendo Switch Launch Day Report from Tokyo, Japan
Just got my copy of Legend of Zelda: Breath of the wild for my Wii U!!!

Very nice! Looking forward to it.
Re: You Can Now Pre-Register for Super Mario Run on Android
@Kafei2006 Oh, you should have no problem.
Re: You Can Now Pre-Register for Super Mario Run on Android
@Kafei2006 what kind of phone do you have? It does have to be a certain spec to run it. Am I right?
Re: You Can Now Pre-Register for Super Mario Run on Android
Just registered! I'm very surprised to see a pre-register option for this game so soon on Android devices! Happy to see the wait won't be much longer.
Re: Retro: Check Out These Early Prototype Pictures of the Nintendo DS
I'm really glad that wasn't the final design. But I recently picked up an original phat DS in really good shape, so I still think this stuff is cool.
Re: The Nintendo 3DS Has Now Sold More Units In Japan Than The PlayStation 2
Wow, streetpass must be really good in Japan.
Re: Poll: How Important is the Virtual Console, and GameCube, for the Nintendo Switch?
I just would like to get Luigi's Mansion at a descent price. All the good GameCube games are getting pretty expensive for what they're worth.
Re: Retailer Accessories for Nintendo Switch Include Lengthy Charging Cables and Portable Cases
@abbyhitter lol, thanks for clearing that up for us. Some seemed to be confused.
Re: Poll: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Share Your Thoughts on the Latest Footage
I don't know about the rest of you, but Breath of the Wild might be my last Wii U game. I feel like my Wii U should go out with a bang!
Re: 3DS Software Sales Pass 100 Million In Japan
Nice, long live Nintendo!!
Re: Hyperlight EX Blasting Onto New 3DS on 1st December
Looks good, been wanting a good shoot'em up for the 3ds.
Re: The Game Boy Color Is Finally Getting The Backlight Mod It Deserves
It's not that the Game Boy Color didn't get much love from modders, the problem is that the screen is so different from all the other Game Boys.
Re: Reminder: Fresh New Nintendo 3DS XL Colours Out Now in Europe
What! That's awesome, come on NOA!
Re: Nintendo Confirms Wii U Production Is Coming To A Close
Now the only question remaining is how much longer the online serves will stay up.
Re: Talking Point: A New Nintendo 3DS Price Drop Can Prolong the Portable's Lifespan
It isn't a permanent price drop, is it? It says right in the tweet that it's "while supplies last". It's great for the holidays, but says nothing for the longevity of the system.
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About the Mini NES?
Besides, I already own most of the games that are on it, ether on my 3DS or on my original NES.
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About the Mini NES?
@A01 Yeah but it wouldn't have most of the N64 classics (for licensing reason)
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About the Mini NES?
I'm not to interested in it. However, being a Nintendo fan I feel I will end up with one eventually.

Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
I wish it was January already so these rumors would just die.
Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
@Link506 The point of the Switch isn't to be that next gen powerhouse console. It's appeal is in the fact that you can take your console games with you wherever you go, so even if it wasn't more powerful then Wii U, it's not the point.

Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
@NTELLIGENTMAN Oh great, another person who doesn't understand that flash memory is becoming just as good (if not better) than blue-ray disc's 😑
Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
@Link506 You are looking at the Switch as a next gen home console, but it's not, It's more of a next generation handheld. However, even though it is about the size of a PS Vita, it is a step up from Wii U despite its small size.
Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
@khaosklub And that's why Nintendo is the best place to play.
Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
@spiderman1978 It's a good reason to hold on to your 3DS then.I'm keeping mine for that reason☺
Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
@BiasedSonyFan I didn't even say anything about 3rd party support, but that's good to know I guess.

Re: Talking Point: Imagining a Future Nintendo Switch Budget Spin-Off - A Non-Switching Microconsole
Soooo, it's like an HD GameCube that uses cartridges.
Re: Nintendo Share Value Drops 6.5% Following Switch Reveal
Who cares about their opinions? Only true gamers knows whats up!
Re: Nintendo Switch Will Be a Single-Screen Experience
This is why when people say it's "basically the Wii U" it drives me crazy. If you think about it, it's nothing like the Wii U.
Re: Preview Trailer of the Nintendo NX Confirmed for 20th October
Looks like it's going to be in October after all. SUPER HYPE!
