I'm more surprised to hear that anyone thought that was seriously Switch 2 quality footage...
It was clearly in the "It's fine but no great shakes" category.
Also, not for nothin, but I'm really not looking forward to Professor Xavier-ing every door to open them. 😄
@Yosher Not a chance, it was still too public just by, well, existing. It's not news sites' jobs to protect Kickstarters from things they're doing wrong. They put themselves out there to get shut down, quite brazenly, with no effort from NL or anyone else.
@sonicbooming These things are not even close to similar. What would Nintendo sue those companies for, exactly? They're uploading their own product, lacking-in-quality as it is, to their shop through regular practices and Nintendo gets their cut as per usual. These fools were asking for a ridiculous amount of money to make a movie with Nintendo's own characters. Two things can happen at the same time.
@Yosher Or, you know, posting a highly public Kickstarter campaign asking for $30,000. That might draw some notice in and of itself, just maybe possibly.
@Setery you just blindly trust these people you don't know that every single dollar of the THIRTY THOUSAND they were asking for was going to be used in a way wholly for the production and not in any other possible way, ever? And also Nintendo should just assume the same and cross their fingers?
I haven't bought a physical cartridge game in years and I have no regrets about being full download only. (And I'm from the NES era, so I've had my share of boxes and cartridges and stuff.)

Re: Video: Metroid Prime 4 Looks Great, But Here's Why The Latest Trailer Isn't Switch 2 Footage

@ibookboyuk Well, possibly not by Bam's brother Jess, what with his ruptured eardrum from his beating...
Re: Tony Hawk Has Reportedly Demanded Bam Margera Be Included In New Game
So, chronologically in-game, do the physical assaults on his family take place between missions, or...?

Re: Nintendo Places Outside Top 20 In Metacritic's 15th Annual Game Publisher Rankings
2024 was a pretty weak year; Brothership, Showtime and Echoes were all...OK, at best. Everything else was remaster/re-release.

"What savings!" he exclaimed, sarcastically.
Re: Final Minecraft Movie Trailer Still Hasn't Convinced Us On The Big-Screen Adaptation

Re: Review: mClassic RGB Range - Colour Us Unimpressed With These Upscalers
@xmkbest how high did you set it to, or did you just keep it on Auto?
Re: Review: mClassic RGB Range - Colour Us Unimpressed With These Upscalers
@xmkbest @kaiserGX Hmm, may have to try!
Re: Review: mClassic RGB Range - Colour Us Unimpressed With These Upscalers

Re: Talking Point: Why An LCD Screen Isn't The End Of The World For Switch 2

Re: Absurd Boomer Shooter 'Turbo Overkill' Shadow Drops On Switch
@N8tiveT3ch no you
Re: Absurd Boomer Shooter 'Turbo Overkill' Shadow Drops On Switch
@Princess_Lilly Carmack and Romero et al. are all GenX
Boomers were the ones at that time complaining that video games were getting too violent
Re: Absurd Boomer Shooter 'Turbo Overkill' Shadow Drops On Switch
@Princess_Lilly Because Boomers weren't the ones that played/grew up with Doom/Quake/Wolfenstein/etc, that was GenX and Y.
