@nessisonett meanwhile if Doom Eternal had a physical version I would have gladly already bought the plastic cartridge in the plastic case and been playing it on my big flat screen television.
After a year of relative silence from Nintendo the Game Awards, as cheesy as they may be, would have been a great place to remind everyone that they are still working hard to make fun experiences for everyone. Nintendo spoiled the surprise before the show and had nothing else to reveal. Microsoft had a few things, including a new Perfect Dark which is why we’re talking about Microsoft on NintendoLife. Nintendo was kind of a let down last night.
@Chowdaire I’m super disappointed by the announcements tonight. Usually there are a few games that interest me but I think the only thing new that surprised me was Season.
@Jayofmaya of course because only Republicans support Nintendo’s actions and only Democrats support the Melee players. There is no room for any nuance and Nintendo Life is definitely the place to state these honest truths.
@Crono1973 if a company is consistently selling product that under-performs or doesn’t perform at all, that company will lose customers and will go out of business. Generally companies want to stay in business. In an open market there is healthy competition for consumers money. It is that competition that makes manufacturers and retailers provide warranties, returns, and refunds. Sometimes there are scams out there. Buyer beware. If you feel that Nintendo is scamming you because your Melee disk no longer works or your Pokemon game doesn’t have Shaymin or your joycon moves as if possessed by deoman, then by all means spend your money elsewhere. Ideally we are all free to make those decisions.
Found online: "To localize the joke, translators made the dialogue a reference to a Chinese colloquialism about how men must have dignity and not kneel down easily. “Men have gold under their knees, and only kneel to the heavens and their mother,” the saying goes in rough translation, implying that any time a man kneels, it should be an occasion precious as gold." Still not sure how this is offensive but it adds some insight to the situation.
@Trajan I think because there is not full context to the line in the clip; people are desperate to find context. That’s how the old rhyme came into play.
On its own I don’t get it. Maybe he spilled Chai tea on his knees.
Honestly, I would say don’t bother worrying about Cave Story 3D. It lacks all of the charm of original (and upgraded) 2D art. It is a muddy, washed out experience that makes the platforming and combat difficult.
I only speak English but I have games with box art in languages I cannot read. It’s not that big of a deal. Just pick on language and make the box art look nice.
@BanjoPickles Crystal Chronicles may have not been your cup of tea but I have nothing bad that I can say about that original game. It is an all time favorite.
Almost every genre is over saturated and you don't have to be a fan of every genre or every game in a genre. This game is only 12.99. This to me is a great price to grab one day and play even if only for a few times.
Adventure, Super Star, The Amazing Mirror, and Air Ride are my favorites. Epic Yarn is great but and way better than it was perceived when it came out.

Re: Zelda Voice Actress Patricia Summersett Speaks Out About Online Negativity And Criticism
I don’t think she was trying to sound like a Brit. Britain doesn’t exist in the Zelda universe as far as I know.
Re: Zelda Voice Actress Patricia Summersett Speaks Out About Online Negativity And Criticism
Her voice was perfectly fine. Sounded like a person. The writing however didn’t seems as human.
