Hmmm, the game UI shows only the status for one player: Casey. But I see 3 other playable turtle characters. Could that mean they're adding AI followers in your runs now?
Console emulator users who own a copy of the game are probably a really really small percentage of all the people who use console emulators. We all know the rest of the large majority are pirates.
It's easy for emulator creators use that small minority as a stepping stone to claim there is nothing wrong with what they are doing, but we all know it smells like bull poop.
I speak about modern consoles, it's definitely not really the case of old consoles no longer on the market. With modern consoles being emulated and at risk of game piracy, game developers need to lean more on live services shenanigans and microtransactions. We are very lucky that Nintendo first party games don't do that. With taking down emulators like Yuzu, I hope we can continue to get quality titles without live services battle passes and predatory microtransactions.
@d-slice Imagine being able to sell your finished digital games to someone else or a retailer as a "used" NFT copy, but future NFT sales give a cut going back to the developers to keep funding their game development efforts! Now wouldn't that be nice instead of weird NFT bros trading monkey jpgs!
heck yes, interesting to see the edgier design, a sign that they really want to try mario universe in a different direction that i also hope will pay off
I can imagine the bigwigs thinking they're so charitable to give $200 gift cards but it's just a constant reminder to those being let go that Bobby Kotick and gang are still rolling in the fat wads of cash they saved letting go of employees.
Still, letting go of an e-sports division? How are they going to bring back a good e-sports brand with this trash reputation they've achieved now? wouldanyone interested in running an e-sports operation be willing to join Activision Blizzard at this point?
Activision Blizzard is probably going to regret this later and not know why.
People are gonna buy it anyways, just to experience more conventional team vs team FPS action on the Switch, and we are sorely lacking in that department.
This is really awesome, as it can be hard to break into the console gaming industry and especially as a young person at a well established and proven studio! I hope the fresh young minds can bring awesome, and creative perspectives to Monolith's next games!
With this game, I think I'll feel like a kid again when I held toy cars making vroom vroom noises and pushing them across the floor! I hope the trailer is close to the gameplay though!
Alex Moukala is a great and talented guy! Always making videos with interesting mash-ups and explaining how he does everything for us plebs! Also never leaving Nintendo fans behind and covering great Nintendo tunes!
This is gonna be campy as hell, I can feel it already. There's just way too many characters to give fan service to and that's gonna be hard to balance with non-gamers/normies getting confused by a large cast of odd characters to them.
As much as Kamiya is a troll on twitter, gotta respect his professional ethic in this regard. Definitely does match Nintendo's style of being tight-lipped until its ready to drop a news bomb on us when things are really close to release.
@FX102A I just came from VGP store. The guy said they had about 10 copies left, good luck to everyone hoping to get it online! (He claims to have no idea why they got them, other than a shipment just showed up with them)
