Give customers what they want at a reasonable price and piracy dies.
This was extremely visible with the Pirate Bay, which almost ceased to be useful and relevant until Disney Plus came along and launched exclusive content in only 2 countries.
Make your back catalogue available at a reasonable price, Nintendo, and there will be no reason to pirate anything.
I don't really get the idea that its not a good RE game, but is an ok action game. I only managed a couple of hours of Leon's campaign and about 30 minutes of Chris'. But it was just so dull. Everything was slow, encounters seemed to have no real design to them.
Maybe I just did not get it. There was a bit pretty early on where I died maybe 4 times becasue a car kept hitting me. I just had to find the right place to stand so that it didn't. It was no fun and utterly pointless.
It's biggesst flaw is not that its not scarey it's that its terminally dull.
Yeah, any opinion that disrespects the incredible music of the Genesis soundchip is not something to pay attention to. YOu're entitled to your opinion, of course, but please have it over there, waaaay over there.
@-wc- Its a bit depressing that anyone finds it acceptable practice. Especially when you have to accept terms and condistions that are several pages of fine print long.
I was going to try the demo of Lost Crown with the idea of likely buying it soon after, but it required me creating a Ubisoft account ot access the demo, so I deleted it.
That sort of thing makes me a bit sour, do you need a Ubisoft account to play the game when you buy it?
How bad are the load times? I love the original, but the loading times were an absolute pain. But the load times seemed much worse in Afterparty, and I just stopped playing after a short while.
Wow. Horizon Forbidden West had great visuals and some neat ideas, but I specifically quit playin because of what I thought was abysmal storytelling and characters. The story was bad! The characters were embarrassing! I feel so out of touch.
Compared to other subscription services, its really not at all attractive. While it will likely fade with time, I'm finding the upgraded PS+ to be overwhelmingly good value right now.
Holy crap. I have one. I was given it as a farewell gift when I left a company a few years ago. I had no idea it cost so much. I always thought it was great looking.
@BinaryMessiah I dunno. Given that most electronics are manufactured in China that's become pretty problematic label.
I've had a Binbok for nearly a year and haven't looked back. The only thing I'd like to see improved would be the rumble, which is basic.
The 'cheap and awful Chinese crap' joysticks are streets ahead of Nintendo's official sticks, and the controllers are super comfy to hold for long periods of time.
I felt like I was taking a huge risk importing one, but its brilliant.

I don't much care about these arguments.

Re: Sekiro-Like 'Nine Sols' Scores A Physical Switch Release In 2025
Define Sekiro-like, please. seems a very odd comparrison
Re: New Toy Fighter 'Knock Off' Revives Childhood Memories On Switch In 2025
So much looks good, but that one hit sound effect is going to get old REALLY fast. Such a weird choice that could be fixed so easily.
Re: Eagle-Eyed Fans Think They've Spotted The First 'Switch 2' Image In New Satisfye Trailer
Switch 2 looks to be the most boring Nintendo console reveal, probably ever.
Re: Opinion: Nintendo Needs To Let Us Block The Crap On Switch 2's eShop
I’d love to see a ‘not interested button to hide anything I’m not interested in. Not just crap, anything at all I don’t care about.

Quit linking to Twitter. Let it die. Just post the image.
Re: Ubisoft Closes Two Studios And Will Reportedly Lay Off Hundreds Of Employees
There’s a typo in your last sentence. It says ‘targets’ when I think you meant ‘quality’.
Re: Sega Delisting 'Mega Drive Classics' On Switch eShop This December
With backwards compatibility becoming the norm alongside digital libraries, the only way to resell old content to new users is to delist games.
Re: Capcom Celebrates Resident Evil With An Adorable Trailer And Heavy Discounts
Heavy discounts? Aren't these standard prices at this point?
Re: Video: Sonic X Shadow Generations Graphics Comparison (Switch, Xbox 360, PS5)
That’s a lot of Sonic just standing around, for a frame rate comparison.
Re: Review: Neva (Switch) - A Raw, Engrossing Platformer That Looks Incredible
"It's fairly short - just something to consider" should not be a con.

What awful voice over!
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Nintendo Museum
It’s really not a museum, more of a permanent marketing display.
Re: The First Confirmed 'Switch 2' Game Has Smashed Its Kickstarter Goal
Confirmed and funded on Kickstarter are really not the same thing at all.
Re: New TMNT: Mutants Unleashed Gameplay Trailer Is Packed With Bodacious Brawling
Yes , they needed another take. That voice over was terrible.

Yeah, any opinion that disrespects the incredible music of the Genesis soundchip is not something to pay attention to. YOu're entitled to your opinion, of course, but please have it over there, waaaay over there.
Re: Poll: Are You Ready To Move On From The Switch?
I'm so ready for more powerful hardware, but without backwards compatibility it's going to be a hard sell for a few years.
I want some fancynew games, but mainly I want a switch that loads games faster and can handle native resolutions.
I guess I really wish they'd donea switch pro
Re: Super Mario World Lego Set Revealed, Here's A First Look
Pixels at 45 degrees? YUCK!
If youre doing pixels do it right.
This looks like its from a cheap Unity knock off Mario game.
Re: TMNT: Mutants Unleashed Comes Out Of Its Shell This October
The movie was fantastic, the series looks like it has potential, I hope this is good!
Re: Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection Switch Physical Won't Require A Download
It's madness that that headline even exists.
Re: Random: Danny DeVito Open To Voicing Wario In Mario Movie Sequel
Bob Hoskins as Mario and Danny Devito as Wario would have been perfect.
Re: Rumour: Princess Zelda May Take The Starring Role In An Upcoming Game

Re: Talking Point: After Three Months, What's Your Zelda: TOTK Completion Percentage?
only about half way through the main quest and am kind of bored. there's so many things to do and they're all so pointless and repetitive.
Re: Review: Oxenfree II: Lost Signals - Even Better Than The Essential Original

Re: Random: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Devs "Too Occupied" To Play Elden Ring
Game developer: "I don’t have time to waste playing games!"
Re: Batman Arkham Trilogy For Switch Only Includes One Title On The Game Cartridge
So worst of both worlds. Can’t collect them, they take up storage, but you have to carry around a cartidge to play. Basically a hardware key.
Who is this for? Unsuspecting grandmother buying last minute presents? Bargain bin sales in 2 months?
Re: Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 Switch Physical Version Requires Downloads
So its a download locked by a physical key? Seems like the worst of both worlds. Does anything play off the cartridge?
Re: Feature: 7 Things From Zelda: TOTK's First Hours That Had Us Grinning Like Mad
Loving the game, but …. The voice acting?? I changed to French so I’d no longer have to hear Zelda pant over murals. English Zelda is terrible
Re: Free-To-Play Shooter 'Rogue Company' Ends Service On Switch In June
The port was too Low Rez and was deemed off-brand.
Re: Best Indiana Jones Games On Nintendo Platforms
Staff of Kings was surprisingly enjoyable. And at the time I thought the graphics were rather good for a 3rd party Wii game.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Crowned Nintendo Game Of The Year At Golden Joystick Awards

Re: Best Resident Evil Games Of All Time
I’m pretty sure the best Resident Evil games haven’t been on Nintendo Consoles since 4 was ported to the Wii.
Re: Survival Horror 'Signalis' Arrives On Switch Tomorrow
They've cut off the protagonists feet! No wonder there's so much blood on the floor! Monstrous!

Binbok makes such great controllers. I've been unable to figure out why anyone would rather get a split pad pro.
Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Sonic Origins
The price is the only bug that seems really serious, and I expect that will get a heavy patch within months.
