@YunoboCo You know, they even do it in the general news too. I think they base it on a few people said the same thing so it must be the general opinion. Stupid logic , shows that people care more about the actual things they can see with their own eyes rather than thinking more deeply.
@nocdaes in one of your comments you compared gta6 and Metroid 4, saying that the two short videos of both games are evidence to gta being a leap forward for that series. You must be basing that all on graphics as I didn’t see anything in either trailer to show any new directions for either of them.
@120frames-please I tend to see what your referring to as 'gamers attacking Nintendo'. But I am well aware of both sides of this, so I refer to your last paragraph which I couldn't agree with more. Different opinions, so what!, let's us enjoy it the way that we want too.
@Maubari I don't see anyway back for sony or microsoft, corporations as so self serving nowadays. They merely paint a picture of care and concern for their customers in order to keep taking their money.
I do have a little concern with Nintendo as I feel the overall build quality with regard to switch and their own brand peripherols has been shaky this generation. I have had one issue with a joycon drfiting, one procontroller just stopped working, and also my day one switch console just got clunky and didn't run games properly. Previously I bought a gamecube, Wii, WiiU, Gameboy, 3DS, GBA, all on day one and never had the need to replace any of them. I am hoping they going to address this for the next console.
@120frames-please Really! do you think sony and nintendo attack the gaming industry. I see the PC as the one attacking gaming, trying to move in and take a piece of the pie.
I refuse to be entertained by a bunch of fat cats sitting together, back slapping each other and acting like kings of the world. While already being rich but putting the whole evening on a company card.
@nkarafo They love the hacking world so much is getting to one of the biggest choices of subject for them. They even provided a link for one on this story, called them a dataminer!
I wonder if it's partly due to the lack of news due to this being the end of the switch, hoping it will change.
@Pillowpants Thank you for replying, and apologies for being slow in replying. I'm not personally that interested in replaying the old games, and really don't have any appreciation of fan art which makes it easy for me to fall on Nintendo's side for those. I don't have any issues with people doing as they please in their own homes, but i do get the impression that people are often using the IP's in order to popularise themselves. In turn advertising their work and themselves to a wider audience, which leads to monetizing. I get the way you feel about music, it seems that Nintendo wants to hold the cards, but then it doesn't sell it to people. My ony guess is that they don't feel they would profit enough, business doesn't seem to care if their isn't enough money invovled nowadays. The same as the FOMO they seem to like to create over certain items, rather than selling more they seem to prefer to have an exclusitivity with things.
I am pretty much always happy to accept whatever Nintendo do (I know, I know) and find it easy to accept the different directions that they take, even if they don't always suit me personally. I think people hold to high expectations and want things to be what they think and feel, it's no wonder marriages don't last as long now. Thanks again for the comment, I hope you have a great weekend.
@Pillowpants Do you think the things that you feel are wrong about nintendo are maybe inportant factors for their success? For instance their stance on protecting IP's, I feel this is vital for them to protect how they perceived in the world.
@AndyRogan I definitely copied a few games, but after a while they made that difficult. Also used to change the £2.99 price stickers for the £1.99 one's!! But I always knew what I was doing was illegal, and didn't go around shouting about it.
My comment is more poking at the expectation that because a game is old it is fair game to do as you wish.
Another day, another article of this nature. I wonder if it a generational thing because when I was younger there wasn't older games for me to claim as something I could just now have for free. I must try this down my local antique shop.
Is it just the state of the gaming world right now that we have to have so many articles about modding. It always come across to me like it's someone drawing some funny spectacles on the mona lisa.
I agree with others, this company has been in decline for years. Many years ago I couldn't walk past a Game/Gamestation without having a look, haven't been in much since they started making the place look like a pawn shop, full of phones and tech.
@ShaneReactions Is it really fair to call people selling old games scalpers, it's not like they have allowed demand to force people to buy them. More like you are paying for someone to store it for a few years, if corporate business priced based on storing it for years the rates would be through the roof.

Re: Nintendo Files DMCA Against Fan-Made 'Rhythm Heaven' Remix Software
@somebread maybe a little harsh that. Maybe just something to stop them putting it online. It doesn’t seem to be an issue if you don’t do that.
Re: Nintendo Files DMCA Against Fan-Made 'Rhythm Heaven' Remix Software
It's a shame that all they have got is a DMCA.

Is it really fair to call people selling old games scalpers, it's not like they have allowed demand to force people to buy them. More like you are paying for someone to store it for a few years, if corporate business priced based on storing it for years the rates would be through the roof.
