Re: Legendary DK Rap Composer Disappointed He's Missing From Mario Movie Credits

@dartmonkey thank you for the considered reply. As you suggest, I was labouring under the misconception that articles with more clicks and more user comments somehow generate more ad revenue. So whilst I honestly don’t even remotely believe you guys would deliberately publish something specifically to generate negative comments, I did suspect that an article with lots of users posting simply to complain would be more profitable than one that no-one comments on, so while it might not be deliberate, there’s still a silver lining to those articles from your POV.

To the actual point of the article, if they’re going to wilfully use something he wrote, and acknowledge the tune in the film’s credits, they should credit him properly.

It may have been already revealed elsewhere, but I for one hadn’t seen it mentioned before this article.

I don’t think omitting the word Rap from the title would have unduly affected the impact of the article.

By all accounts, the most satisfying part of the film is recognising the references. Now I’m going to be deprived of one moment of smug self satisfaction, because I know the Rap is in there somewhere, which I hadn’t expected in the slightest.

What you have done is increase the audience participation in this article by flooding the comments page with disappointed people like me. I really hope that wasn’t a consideration here, because that’s kinda trolly, and you’re better than that.

Re: Don't Expect To See Future Super Mario Games On Mobile, Suggests Miyamoto

Seems to me like everyone is ignoring one potentially key word in that quote: “primary”

Sure, the main Mario games will be console exclusives, but that doesn’t mean secondary / spin-off games (like Kart Tour) won’t be mobile games.

I’m pretty sure that’s been Nintendo’s stated stance since they first announced any mobile games…

@ElRoberico @Shepdawg1 Not quite. I did this last week.

Bank is free to download, but to get Transfer you do need to a) have received the Pokédex in one of the Gen VI games (takes less than 10 mins in X), and b) have paid for at least 1 year’s subscription to Bank. Only then can you link your Gen VI game to Bank and access the Transfer download link.

Unless I did something wrong.

Re: Poll: Do You Want Weapon Degradation To Return In Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?

Even with the recharge, the Master Sword just made all the breakable weapons redundant. Opening chests just to find another Knight’s Halberd, that I can’t fit into my limited storage, and only ever used if the MS ran out mid-fight, got tiresome. Not game-breaking, but I don’t think it encouraged me to explore or experiment any more - before getting the Master I was too scared to get in a fight and have my chosen weapon break, so I’d just snipe bokoblins with unlimited bombs from a safe overhang.

Re: Talking Point: In 2023, Do You Still Care About amiibo?

I reckon Deep Cut will eventually join the club.

Worth remembering that Xenoblade 3, FE Engage and Kirby & the Forgotten Land all support series-specific amiibo, even if they didn’t receive new figures for them, so there is some support still.

The Zelda figures are getting restocked, so TotK will certainly support them, though I’m doubting we’ll get any new figures, unless it is Ganon(dorf).
