Re: Retro And Legacy Editions Announced For Aladdin And The Lion King

iam8bits is legitimately the absolute worst repro maker around

Piko Interative, Limited Run Games, RetroBits and a few other legit companies can all manage to sell the games, with license, for 30 to 50$US. Then there's not legal repros that got really cheap recently that also sells for a pittance. without forgetting that the original games for these two are worth what? 10$US at most according to pricecharting?

And then there's iam8bits ... 100$ goddamn dollars US. Are they insane? Ridiculous

Re: Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore Will Be Censored On Switch

cool_boy_mew

Thank you for this

Almost no outlets talk about censorship and it's ridiculous

It's even more ridiculous that they're keeping the censorship in this one, they didn't learn their lesson with the sales of the other one? I mean, freaking hell

>Fire Emblem fans are not happy about this game
>SMT fans are not happy about this game
>Anime and JRPG fans might be interested...
>Except that Anime and JRPG fans have known censorship for years, and and they absolutely loathe it

Who the hell is left to buy your game? Who?

IIRC there's a chapter in the game that's actually a criticism of the creepy Japanese gravure industry. Except they mostly censored everything in that chapter. Bikini were completely changed to random clothes, bikini pics on walls were given pants, the boss was made less creepy. It absolutely affected the game and it's message

Then there's the more ridiculous things like censoring a wedding dress... Are you making this game for the Amish?

Ridiculous through and through and I'll sooner pirate my Wii U to play the uncensored version than give 'em money for this crap

And yeah, this one is far from just being about "the tiddies" the pro censorship people claims. So really, stop, you're embarrassing yourselves

Re: Review: Omega Labyrinth Life - A Robust Dungeon Crawler With Plant-Based Padding

@nessisonett As long as people will mass complain about games like these, and even banning them in the case of Sony, then more "mature" approach to the subjects aren't gonna come, because the subjects aren't deemed to be safe

Hence why it's an imperative to defend some of the more juvenile fan service games or even fan service in general, because they're the ones who will be the stepping stone into having good mature games about it

@Jingo_Unchained

What an abysmal retort

As you said, it's their job, they should do it properly and not give the task to review the game to someone who has a clear disdain and don't understand the game

And yes, it's certainly my place as a site reader to tell them that the review is highly improper, especially when NintendoLife was given a review copy to do so. If you can't find anyone without such disdain for the genre to review it, then simply don't

Also, "why don't you write a review yourself" is yet again, an abysmal argument. Give me spot on a site with an equivalent soapbox level with it being featured as a frontpage news, then maybe the argument would make sense

Re: Review: Senran Kagura: Peach Ball - A Shiny Casing Full Of Used Pinball Machine Parts

cool_boy_mew

@Jingo_Unchained There's a line between opinions, and then absolute clear disdain for the subject matter, and it absolutely seeps from the review

It's the equivalent of letting someone review sports games that think sports games are dumb

The disdain is clearly showing, and this line:
"Games which tease impropriety but ultimately reveal nothing feel arguably anachronistic in a time when anyone with a phone can look at hardcore pornography without paying a dime"
... clearly shows that the reviewer does not get these games, at all. It's the equivalent of "Why play sports games when I can just go play them outside?"

Gavin Lane should not be reviewing this game, or any similar games in the future

Re: Review: Senran Kagura: Peach Ball - A Shiny Casing Full Of Used Pinball Machine Parts

cool_boy_mew

Well, at least I didn't catch any insulting lines (so far...)

But can we please let someone that actually like these kind of games, to review them instead?

I'm sick and tired of seeing reviews of such games from people who has a clear disdain of them, this is ridiculous. This happens every goddamn time on Nintendolife

Also the line about "checking out porn instead", really? Couldn't miss the point of ecchi games any harder than that

Re: Guide: How To Buy Nintendo Switch Games From The Japanese eShop - Region Free Accounts

cool_boy_mew

I like how you guys made this guide but left out the most important part: Buying the damn games

  • Your credit card most likely won't work on the Japanese eShop
  • Your Paypal won't either

Which leaves you having to buy cards from play-asia

Also, you don't need to play on your Japanese account. Any games, and games DLC bought from your Japanese account is playable and usable from all of your other accounts

Of course, it's a bad idea to mixmatch Japanese DLC with western releases

Some games release in the Japanese eShop earlier as demos and such. Just search for "英語" listed in the languages to see if it supports English. The Umihara Kawase Fresh demo released there much earlier and had full English support

So yeah, even if you don't plan to buy games, playing early demo is useful. For example, the Puyo Puyo Tetris Japanese demo was there months before we got it. There's also a Dragon Quest Builder 2 demo out right now. The Japanese eShop is 100% the same as the English one currently, so if you know where stuff are located, you can easily find the demos and such

Switch to a Japanese keyboard if you need to find a particular game

Re: You Can't Alter The Chest Size Of Female Characters In The Western Version Of Xenoblade Chronicles X

cool_boy_mew

Whether you like it or not pubjoe, women has breasts, they exists, and they come in different size.

IIRC there's no body fat meter or something similar because the dev ran into troubles with the character fitting in the Skells.

So yeah, usually in these customizable characters options, some people like to make themselves as close as possible, and well, that includes women. Then there's people who likes to make up characters, and then there's people who likes to gawk at boobs. It's no fair to remove an option because of the latter ... And really, what people does with the options in a game they paid for is none of your business really
