@Moroboshi876 Thank you. I thought it must have been something major to complain about and that I just couldn't see it. But it's not! I would prefer everything to be physical, and I think it's disgusting that digital is not cheaper. Personally I see game cards as good, giving people more options in what is clearly a digital future.

@Moroboshi876 Can you explain what the 'backlash' on key cards actually is please? I am not trying to be funny but I really fail to see peoples issue with them.

Considering I was more happy with Pro Evo soccer back in the day, I feel sure the Switch 2 version will be good.
Anyway what am I supposed to take from this article, some say it's good, someone else doesn't. Who is right!

@jfp "Execs understand sales data, not complainy comments in fan forums. This is the way."

Unfortunatley I think the actual stat they are more interested in is the one that says they make more money on digital.

I really don't see the issue of game cards, it seems like a good middle ground between physical and digital.
But this stat is merely an excuse for marketing, they had a strong enough release to put it on a cartridge and some games don't. Add to the fact that they know as well as we do that despite the fact this stat shows consumers do want physical media the industry is not going in that direction.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant Your comment suggested they didn't have spare cash to do more previously, wether I am satified or not is not relevent.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant What like Donkey Kong and mario kart? And Nintendo have been known to be a rich company for many years now.

I gave up on this earlier this year from playing daily since release. Too much money grabbing which made me feel like I was not getting enough to carry on. Maybe I should have paid

I never liked the fact that the first game made them a bundle of money but they still used crowd funding for the second.
If they were a corporation they would get called out for the greed.

I beleive this game loses too much in the current world, when I first played the game it surprised me in many ways. All those surprises will be leaked and ruined by the internet. Leaving just the bare game which is only average at best.

I felt that I got mugged for buying Ridge racer, I won't be making the same mistake again. The price point for me should be £2.99.

@Ryu_Niiyama One of the images has those plates we both bought. Did you like them when they arrived?

I loved the first Resident Evil on the Gamecube and regard 4 as one of the best games ever made. Didn't go so much on a few of the others.
Obviosuly being a Nintendo gamer I have missed out on some of the newer one's which I read as being pretty good. It would be nice to have a chance to play some of them.

In Sakurai I trust!!!!

Cannot wait to see what he does with this one.

@Fiergala I had wanted to reply to you previously but was too busy at the time. I understood your last comment and just wanted to make mine clearer.
Firstly I 100% have no issues with anyone drawing whatever they want, the area that complicates this for me is the law. And then solicitors etc. who cloud the lines of legality. This then in turn makes difficult situations for companies, very similar to this tcg card. Neither the drawer of the art in question or the Pokémon company had any issues with either side, however because of the law it then impacted what the Pokémon company felt they should do.
This is often the case and it annoys me to think that if I came up with a character that I would have to be careful because of law. When really you should have license to do what you want with what you created.
As I say my issue is with a stupid law that makes the two sides look like they dislike each other when I really don’t think they do. So when a company looks over zealous towards some art, like some others would do, I don’t see the issue the same.

@WiltonRoots I did reply to you but they deleted it sorry, i'll try and re phrase!

This type of article does seem to attract them!

Judging by many of the comments you have to actually wonder why some people are even viewing a Nintendo fan site.

I guess it must be so that they can troll, actualy.... who wrote the article........................

"The event remains non-profit, with all proceeds going to charity"

So how much money will they be giving to people? I would want a full breakdown of who is benefitting from this, and the same with most main charities. Non- profit charity is a scam!!

I pulled one out last week, but not 3!!!

@WhiteUmbrella It maybe a bigger market now, but there are many more options for people to play games now then there was then.

@Fiergala So does the law, otherwise there wouldn't be a legitimate reason to take it down. Maybe your issue is with the law and not me....

@Fiergala Can you try and at least disagree with someone without being rude.

And I am really sorry that I only appreciate art from the creators rather than depictions from fans.

@Fiergala So in your book fans should be allowed to plagiarize the creators.

I just changed a couple of your words to show you have double standards.

What a ridiculous situation this is.... I mean how can it be that the company that makes something should be scared that the law won't protect them from doing what they like with their creations.
I guess this will lead to stronger action being taken to avoid this in the future.

Nate is the new Kate..... I dislike them both and any more that come along in the future too.

I still get angry over Macdonalds taking all the salt out of the chicken nuggetts...

@Arnie4490 I contenplated your reply last night and I have taken the critism on board, I also apologise if I offended you. As much as I would prefer that someone with a vested interest in gaming was responsible for this job, I should not have presumed in such a way about this person.
I do still stick to the opinion with regards to not caring if AI or a real person does this job, but I will try not to add stupid comments with it in future.

His ears are all wrong!!!

@rvcolem1 No!! They are preserving them...

@Fazermint We are in the right place to find it, and to find people that are triggered by it.

@SirLink No I am not. I wouldn't choose to take recommendations from random people online, especially one's with vested interest. Personally I would trust Nintendo, that is based on many years of trust in their products, not all but a very high percentage of them over a very long period of time.

"p**s-poor excuse for a controller"

Is this the opinion of some bloke from down the pub, or am I supposed to respect this. No it's an opinion of someone that would profit from things being different.

Yet more defending of criminal activity, shameless.

Well I loved magikarp jump and those online pokemon dream world games. Maybe this one is for me (and maybe antimatter).

@kmtrain83 There is always some you tuber / website trying to grab attention and cause a stir to bring out people's emotions. Add to that the fact that people act emotively first and think second it's a melting pot of *****.

This whole cancel culture is so bad, I really am glad I don't use social media. When I think back to my youth, 70's/80's and what would have been cancelled within society then. Wow I think if I even mentioned the type of subjects that would have been cancelled then my comment would get cancelled by nintendolife.
The same with regards to many commentors in the recent microsoft lay offs story, they say 'I will never buy anything microsoft again'. I mean I agree that it's probably not a good idea to go chucking money at them, but hang on you might be cutting your nose off to spite your face with that comment. Especially as it probably doesn't matter what you buy nowadays it's probalby stained with something that people wouldn't like. So your probably selling your soul to the devil no matter what you do.
I like the principles that people have more often but I hope they don't let it imapct themselves too much, because take it from an old person you probably will impact yourself far more than the person you are trying to do it too.

It's sad that this subject is dividing gamers, you can see this in this comment section. The whole situation boils down to poor regulation, online gaming is a newer thing and therefore the old consumer rights do not cover the individual situations that online gaming has bought to the table. Governments across the world should have investigated this and brought in rules that both consumers and games maker would both act fairly. Currently we have games companies doing as they wish because there is nothing to stop them.

So trusting that countries will regulate this in a way that works is plain stupidity, hell they should have done it years ago!

So in other words, 'Stop Killing the Games' will likely lead to Killing the Games.

Just as I have always expected, put demands on companies with how they should be and they will monestise it and make it something that you don't want to pay for. No one wins.

I blame microsoft and sony for the where the industry in right now. They have pushed the costs of making games into astronomical levels with the drive towards realism, adding very little more value to the industry on the whole by never innovating. Now with the popularity of games like 'Grow a garden' and the other chuck away experiences that are churned out on Roblux you can see the games industry execs running scared that they need to realine for the future.

@foursider It needed a Nintendo stye peripherial.

Nintendo robots incoming.....

I am not interested myself. but I am sure that some people would like that. Nintendo will never do this because it would take about 5 minutes from release for the reddit posts on how to hack it and distribute it to start.

@Gedrick Neither did putting all their eggs in one basket.

Maybe smaller businesses shoud have more courage of their work rather than selling out to corporations.

I support Nintendo's fight against pirating, it would actually be nice if these people actually got more punishment.

My only issue with game key cards are that they are confusng when you have several switches, and that they have put keycards on games like Fortnite which is stupid. I personally see these as good in comparrison to digital, and not comparable to physical releases. I hope they are careful to market them for what they are and not mislead people.

So I guess there is no love for the people that love the intermissions. Just the usual crying online and trying to cancel in order to get their own way.
If only life was perfect...
