@Deadlyblack True.
Limited Run Games is overrated; it's run by hipsters (seriously, look up the clowns that run the company) who seem to care more about making a game limited, "exclusive" and rare so they feel special, instead of serving the needs of customers who actually want the games to play.

Re: VR Developer Defends Labo VR, Predicts This Might Only Be The Start For Nintendo

To those who are concerned about the resolution and technical limitations of the Switch:
Understand that Labo VR will only be compatible with games made specifically FOR Labo VR.
The games will be developed WITH the resolution and technical limitations in mind, similar to how original 3DS games (on a regular-sized 3DS screen) still looked great and sharp despite the low-resolution display.
Regular Switch games are VERY UNLIKELY to get a VR mode slapped on them, (due to the aforementioned technical limitations) so don't worry about that.

Re: Rumour: Microsoft Plans To Bring Xbox App And Game Pass To Nintendo Switch

Collaborations like this are great but I would NEVER want to see Microsoft buy Nintendo out unless they're in really bad financial shape and it's a last resort to save their studios.
I just DON'T TRUST Microsoft with game studios, look at what they did to Rareware.
And most other Microsoft-owned developers haven't fared much better through the years either, unfortunately.
Maybe MS really has turned over a new leaf and they won't DESTROY Obsidian and other studios they've recently purchased, but that remains to be seen...

Re: Talking Point: The Pokémon Trading Card Game Is In Desperate Need of An Evolution

The Pokemon TCG has ALWAYS been a more simple, accessible alternative to Magic the Gathering.
How many people did you know who actually PLAYED the card game back in the day?
In it's late 90's and early-2000's hey day, EVERYONE collected the cards but I only knew a few other people who had any interest in playing.
The Pokemon TCG is FINE because there will always be a demand for them as long as Pokemon is a popular video game franchise, and they'll always be a collecting hobby FIRST and card game SECOND.
And at this point, Pokemon cards are a nostalgic INSTITUTION; people will always look at them fondly and grab some packs off store shelves.
I can't think of a video game franchise with more popular merchandise overall; Pokemon is bigger than Mario, Zelda, etc.
It's very telling that Pokemon merch is a consistent seller while all the Fortnite crap they're trying to push, for example, is rotting on store shelves.

Re: Rumour: Next DLC Fighter For Smash Bros. Ultimate Seemingly Teased By Game Supervisor

Dragon Quest is pretty much a given at this point, but I'm going to laugh if it turns out to be a character from Bravely Default.
And I think SLIME is just as possible as Erdrick, especially since the datamining apparently revealed "Brave" to be a short character with sliding movement; he could work like Piranha Plant and take the form of several different slimes for his attacks, transforming into a King Slime for his Final Smash.
Or, of course, it's a completely different character from another series.

@sanderev Maybe, maybe not.
Apple just doesn't seem to take gaming seriously, and they're not making much progress in pushing their platforms in homes.
I think Apple's best days are behind them, honestly.

Re: Random: Sneaky Smash Bros. Fans Rejoice At The Sight Of Princess Peach's Knickers

Her panty shots are most pronounced in Brawl, I think.
There's a move where her legs are spread wide open and you can upskirt her, and take snapshots if that's your thing. Lol
Yeah, there's tons of borderline-porn games but I can see that the appeal here is seeing something that you don't normally get to see, an OFFICIAL portrayal of a family-friendly character you grew up with (and probably had a crush on at some point) in a very sexualized position. Lol
