Imagine if these things didn’t have drift… I would be broke keeping up with my favorites. I skipped the TOTK Switch just because of drift.

@Vexx234 that’s actually really cool. I’ve never heard of someone doing this - ever - but really cool if people use credits in this way.

No one reads the credits. Put it on your resume and be done with it.

This game looks amazing. My daughter will love it.

@Otoemetry it’s like the Inception trailer music.

@ATaco That’s why I love Nintendo.

Got this for the kids. The amount of text you have to read to know what to do and why is going on blows me away. This game is far from “pick up and play.”

@ShadJV I think this is why support is always delayed when a new Pokémon game launches.

This game is fantastic. I own 2 copies and have purchased multiples as gifts. If you have kids that span multiple ages/skill levels, this game is perfect for leveling the playing field.

@Giancarlothomaz his power is the best though. Cuts down on so much movement time.

@angus_luissen yeah, the coin counting gimmick loses its fun pretty quick. All of these characters need proper Minifig treatment.

Game runs fine for me. DLC purchased.

@Thrallherd I don’t play the game, but find these articles interesting. I’m one of the ones they get the clicks from 🤣

I was really hoping WaLuigi would be revealed. I think Sora is better (never played that game either), but there was such a push by fans for him. Not really sure why.

@mariomaster96 I hear you, but then I think of all the technology in BOTW and I'm like... whatever. It makes the game function better. lol

@ATaco If you think it is wrong. I don’t really care if they list every person that worked on something in the credits of the game, film, show, etc. As long as they don’t deny the person worked on something, I’m good. That’s where it matters. No one gets an applicant and pulls up a game to find the credits. This is just pointless drama people in the real world of hiring don’t actually care about.

I also think there is something to be said about a list of - let’s say animators - for Metroid being listed where 30 of them put in years of work, 50-60 hour weeks, blood sweat and tears, and the person who worked there for 1 week being listed with them.

Yeah, nope. Put it on your resume, not making in game credits.

@Crono1973 I think I misunderstood your initial comment. You are actually talking about how we don’t know a lot of the development staff on games. I feel like this is like wondering why people know the cast/director/writer, but don’t know animators, costume designers, sound effects people, etc. just the nature of the job - it is in the background, so it is… in the background.

@ATaco if Smash sucked, no one would talk about the team, it would all be on Sakurai.

The leader is who gets the praise or complaints. Why? His leadership/direction/vision is what people are working towards/for.

@psychoBrew this. A million times this. Put it on your resume and move on. I’m sure people would love to know you worked somewhere for 8 months and bounced.

@forumposter21 actually sounds accurate

@CharlieGirl came back to say you were right. Glad they brought the distant stops back.

@ImmortanJho what am I missing here?

1. You can skip the articles. NL doesn’t need to stop posting them.
2. Who is defending the accused specifically? I only see people calling it a PR stunt, a pointless move as no one knew the history of the character in the larger player base, or defending “innocent until proven guilty” (which is not the same as defending the person)

If it were my game, I’d change the name. That said, I also know most people don’t care or know who the guy is.

@nessisonett I think I read two comments defending “innocent until proven guilty”, so maybe that is what you would call people defending him. Other than that, they are just comments saying this is a PR stunt that means nothing for changing the actual culture of the organization. Not sure what is wrong with that opinion, but feel free to debate those people.

@CharlieGirl I agree with you personally, but they have all the data to look at. I don’t know anyone who likes the changes, but again, looking at true usage/spend data is more accurate.

So dumb. This is why patents exist. If it isn’t patentable or you don’t want to patent it, don’t complain.

I feel like Among Us is just digital Clue in space.

@CharlieGirl but 2021 might not be. Maybe they see restrictions being lifted and players leaving the game. People meeting other people through this game keeps people playing beyond the normal game attention span. If the distance change was more profitable long-term, it would stay.

@UglyCasanova the obsession with celebrity is off the charts with the TikTok generation.

Fortnite may feature Samus during this alien focused season. They have Master Chief and Kalos from the other console makers, and Samus has been (rumored) teased and leaked in court documents. This might be a good way to build hype with new players.

@John_Deacon prior to the free repair deal in the US, I would buy a repair kit from Amazon for $10 for a pack of four. It was tedious, but worked.

@needmorecowbell there is a difference with being critical of one (major) area of the Switch experience - controls - and talking about the Switch as a whole. The Switch is probably the best system I have ever owned. Full stop.

@John_Deacon really sad when you visit a friend/relative with a Switch and the drift is so bad that characters are running in one direction when the sticks are idle. This is normal gameplay for many people.

@IronMan30 you’d probably love the Lego Movies (the official part 1 and 2). They speak to those 2 different personalities in a hilarious way.

@turbotri I don’t want this to be accurate, but it is very accurate. RIP Switch Pro dreams until RIP Switch.

I’m scared of these updates now after my Switch was in repair for 6 weeks.

@Snatcher Tetris? What are you? A…. GENIUS! This might be the single best Smash fighter I’ve heard of. Alt skin of GB colors!

@Tandy255 can you imagine if they are the same joy-cons on this thing?

Samus could honestly use some help with the younger crowd. My kids went from knowing zero about Halo, to wanting shirts and toys after MC came to Fortnite. They are too young for the Halo game, but it is on their radar now. Could see this really pushing sales of the next Metroid game to newer gamers.

If she’s a fan, this has gotta be pretty cool for her.

Let’s say 15 people sent him abusive messages. Would you really consider that the Metroid Community? Give me a break. That does not represent the majority of people. Most people hear his response and think, yup, that sounds reasonable. There are millions of people that love Metroid, so a handful of internet trolls isn’t really reflective of the “community”. If he said thousands of people were doing this, I’d be floored.

@ImBackBB the 3DS?

@Rhaoulos You sound like someone who watched Montgomery Burns on The Simpsons and think that is how real business leaders function.

@Kienda But what if those employees were not a good fit? What if the team wasn’t? He might make the final decision, but in a company that big you have a lot of people doing months or years of research and presenting data over and over, before a massive lay off happens. He didn’t wake up and say “fire them, so I can get $15 million”.

(I don’t know who the 800 were or even who this guy is)

@samuraicop are you this passionate about people dying from all causes or only this one in the last year?

@IsabelleIsHot but there are pro gamer games on the Switch, and kids want in on the action.

The update broke Wi-Fi for me. Still cannot get it to work.

@johnvboy I did the same. I'll buy the real ones at retail if they ever restock, but no way am I paying someone $350.

@Alienfreaks04 Fun...? I mean, why else do spend money on games?

I love this case. 60 games and looks great (I got the retro design). Tons of designs.

@Heavyarms55 what is wrong with enjoying a game and be given the ability to customize your character for a fee? Seems reasonable. I was the default skin for a long time. Master Chief came out and I bought it. Still going strong since December.

I know quite a few players that just use default. The gameplay and concept is still a ton of fun.

@SoapMonkey short answer: people play it.

Odd question for a site based around games that came out 30+ years ago.

@GameOtaku millions did. People just have their head in the sand right now. Sad.
