Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Metroid Prime Pinball

Europe / North America. You can clearly see the colours of Samus’s suit and you can clearly see the pinball flippers and know exactly what the game will be.

You can see neither of these clearly on the Japanese version. But to be fair to it what remains really looks like the middle of a pinball table very much.

Also I can not think of a better Nintendo character to put in a pinball game than Samus with her morph ball ability.

Re: Drag x Drive Devs Tried Wheelchair Basketball In Prep For Game

Let it be known for public record. If you’re going to make a game about wheelchair basketball you should check the physics with the experience of shooting hoops from a wheelchair in real life.

I feel this is not rocket science but thank goodness they figured it out here. Lesser mortals would not have. For sure it has let to a better game.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (22nd November)

@Shiryu Thank you so much for the bug reports. I still play Debris Infinity all the time like every few weeks. I love it so much I submitted it to the Nintendo Life article on games they missed that don’t have reviews.

The one thing I would change in Debris Infinity is I would like to keep my powered up weapon until I get hit. I don’t want it to run out by itself.

Re: PSA: SNES Controller For Switch Online Is Finally Back In Stock (UK)

(Honestly I tried to get this SNES controller as soon as I saw the article headline but I had trouble. Maybe they are sold out already?)

Edit: I GOT ONE! Maybe someone cancelled their order.

I have literally been waiting for this for years. I am so excited to play U Deluxe and all the other 2D Mario games available on Switch and Switch Online with an SNES controller.

The Japan cover is a deserving winner. I thought the North America cover looked a bit cheesy but I voted for it because it has an actual screen grab in the cover. I hardly ever see that. That is so cool.

(I get annoyed when I see a game advert and no actual gameplay is there. It’s all cutscenes. Nintendo are actually pretty good at showing the actual game in adverts.)
