Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team

@MattmanForever the charities are all administration fees. They give the cash money to the actual animals. They use it for bedding mostly and when the poachers come for the animals they steal the cash and leave the animals safe and sound. Everyone’s a winner 👍🏻

Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team

@Dang_69 we don’t agree. Your world revolves around you and My world is made up of humanity and the animals.
You think about yourself and I think about everything and everybody. You couldn’t possibly understand anything that isn’t serving you what you want. You lack the ability to see things from someone else’s point of view. You don’t know why people do things and wether these things are admirable or not so we cannot have a discussion because you lack the ability to discuss.

Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team

@Dang_69 I feel sad that you wouldn’t root for passionate teams of workers who want to create something special and I feel sad that you would set out to sabotage something potentially special by over reacting to the tiniest bit of information about it.
These reactions are common these days and I see them as needlessly dramatic and ill informed. An I don’t like this so I won’t buy it or a let’s see approach is rational.
You being outraged that a game you have no input in isn’t exactly how you want it to be isn’t rational.

@OmnitronVariant I can feel your anger.
I’m an old man who has waited for over 15 years for a new Metroid Prime game.
I’m going to remain calm until the game releases and I’m going to play it and I’m going to enjoy it.
I’m not going to do a deep dive on a tiny portion of the game and act outraged and disgusted that the game exists.
It’s a game that at one point seemed very unlikely due in part to the ridiculous fan reception of Metroid Other M.
That game was pretty fun if you skipped the cut scenes.
Yes I’m on Nintendo’s pay roll.
They pay Me to annoy cry babies 👍🏻

Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team

gazamataz

@Dang_69 that’s the issue !
You don’t care how well the game sells and Nintendo really cares how well the game sell's. If you had spent £70 million of your money you too would care how the game sells 👍🏻

Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team

gazamataz

Metroid Prime sales have never been as good as the quality of the games. I believe a big reason for this is the isolation.
I completely understand the necessity to attract more casual players with a less oppressive atmosphere.
Hopefully they’ve hit on the perfect middle ground with this title as Metroid deserves more love and more games 👍🏻

Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A's Mega Dimension DLC Scores December Release Date

gazamataz

@Willo567 I agree with you. People saying nonsense is annoying. What has clearly happened is the game and the dlc were planned from the start to be released separately. This is a money grabbing practice but it was known about before the game released. Game freak and Nintendo have been transparent about this. It is not an extra unexpected charge. So why do people make up their own narrative and act outraged?
It’s a very strange way to behave 👍🏻

Re: Surprise! Kirby Air Riders Is Getting A Second Direct

gazamataz

Bring it on. For all those complaining about this second direct existing I point you to You tubers playing entire games and getting good viewership. Who are you to complain about content existing?
There are trillions of things that I don’t view out there in the world. I see this as a nonissue. Are you insane?

Re: Review: EA SPORTS Madden NFL 26 (Switch 2) - EA's Gridiron Series Finally Plays Ball On A Switch Console

gazamataz

As a huge Daytona USA fan/Sega Saturn fan I find all this talk about fps the equivalent of a mass temper tantrum.
I agree that people who are sensitive to these things shouldn’t buy this game but the anger and betrayal shown about everything not running 60 fps these days is embarrassing. God help these people if they ever have a serious problem in their lives.

Re: WWE 2K25 On Switch 2 Is Missing Certain Cross-Platform Benefits

gazamataz

I was playing it last night and it’s a fun game. I was getting my arse kicked by some NXT guy who I’d never heard of.
There seems to be plenty to do outside of the micro transaction ridden online modes.
Also the offline modes easily surpass the classic late 90’s early 2000’s wrestling games content wise.

Re: The Hundred Line Director Has Already Announced A Brand New Game

gazamataz

The hundred line is a great game. I’m playing through the demo. I’m pleased to see the developers use every trick in the book to sell this game. It’s such a shame when a great game is overlooked due to bad or no marketing.
I decided that I’m going to buy it as soon as I saw a coffin drone and burst out laughing 😀

Re: Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. Announced For Switch 2

gazamataz

@karatekid1612 I would prefer physical but it’s becoming obvious that physical copies for games are on there way out much like DVD’s for Movies and CD’s for music have become relics.
The comment section on Nintendo life is full of obsessive collectors and geeks like you and Me and doesn’t represent the world as a whole very well 👍🏻

Re: Talking Point: Will You Be Buying Any Game-Key Card Switch 2 Games?

gazamataz

Most of these games wouldn’t be on Switch 2 carts if the prohibitive costs of having a memory card containing the game was cutting into publishers profits.
If the choice is more varied content with the same restrictions that Xbox and PlayStation have had for years or having every game on a cart. Then why would you not want people to have a choice?
You can still sell it for the next 5 years at least. I’m sick of all this fake outrage about something that is an industry norm.
Get a life !

Re: Nintendo Of America President On Timing Of Switch 2's Release Date

gazamataz

@BTB20 true. Not the exact words. But he does say there is no right time to launch a games console before explaining that Nintendo chose to launch in the summer and the reasons why they chose the summer those reasons were summarised into one line by Me.
Other good reasons for a summer launch would be the competition not aggressively marketing their consoles like they do in the Christmas run in and a general lack of big games releasing in summer compared to the end of the year.
Either just say there is no right time or say summer is a great time. Or say the world is ready for Switch 2. That’s what Reggie would have said 👍🏻

Re: Digital Foundry Digs Deep Into Mario Kart World's Tech And Specs

gazamataz

I would like to see boss fights taking place while traversing dangerous areas of the open world. Actually I would be very surprised if this wasn’t the case.
They could have treasure maps with reskins and outfits as treasure.
They could cameos from other Nintendo franchises. They could do a lot of stuff they’ve likely been working on this for a good few years.

Re: Where To Pre-Order Nintendo Switch 2

gazamataz

@Anakin I’ve just received an email that they don’t have enough stock for My preorder but I may get one in the next batch if I’ve paid in full which I now have.
I hope you had better luck 🍀

Re: Sale Predictions Remain Unchanged Despite Switch 2 Price Concerns

gazamataz

Many people bought a switch and maybe only bought a few games. Nearly everyone bought Mario Kart and many people played it for years and it works out at less than £50 extra if you get it downloaded on the console so the £80 or $90 price tag is irrelevant…. Yet it’s all anybody is talking about. Is everybody stupid or am I clever 😩

Re: Talking Point: What We Expect From The Switch 2 Direct

gazamataz

@OorWullie Yes. Mario cart looks unreal and F ZERO GX is one of My favourites that I’m terrible at unless I’ve played it for about 5 hours in a row. My old man reflexes really struggle with that one 😀
Fast fusion also looks amazing but I do hope the colour switching mechanic is removed. Ridge racer has always been a poor man’s Daytona but I still enjoy it and who doesn’t love Kirby 👍🏻

Re: Switch 2 Games Cost A Bit More Than You're Probably Expecting

gazamataz

More expensive games but it’ll only matter for first party games as third party games tend to drop really quickly.
When you see how many game developers are going out of business it’s pretty obvious that prices need to go up.
If you don’t want to support your favourite developers wait for the price to drop and don’t complain when they go out of business 😀
