They shouldn't have been so secretive. They handled this like an announcement or trailer, not like an animation project. The disappointment was expected.
This site is called Nintendo Life, it's probably not a place where this poll can be held objectively. That said I'm both a Nintendo and Sonic fan and this time around I'm sorry but SRC is just more fun as a kart racer. It's not rage bait as that first commentor put it. If MKW was really better none of this conversations would be happening, simple as that.
I can't help but feel like some lawyer advised Crush 40 that they could probably win a lot of money by pursuing this lawsuit and they just didn't have enough arguments to win it. The song was probably owned by SEGA when it was used in SA2, it just wasn't stated at the time that it could be used in future projects, so that is what they are trying to use as an excuse, but it seems like SEGA rightfully owns the rights. I mean they've been using it openly even with the case open and nothing happend so...
This sucks. Wouldn't it include stuff like the helper characters in fighting games? Or any game where you summon stuff to fight for you, like I dunno, Wakfu comes to mind? And what makes a character a 'character'? Does sending a little robot to attack count? This is stupid
I preordered it on Steam, if the game runs as well on Switch 2 as it does on PC I recommend everyone that has a Switch 2 to consider it. It's so much fun, it's great to play in teams, and the team-based events are a lot of fun playing with friends!
Wow, how... unappealing for a Nintendo product. I mean, I miss the quirkiness of their designs, the striking red color... from afar it looks like something targeted towards a random business executive on a work trip.
As someone who was born in the 80's and used to record music from the radio on a cassette... I'd simply set up a good camera and mic to record the phone and then use today's tools to edit the video to look good, if necessary. They're just making it inconvenient, not impossible, to share the info
Wait- in-game purchases? What? In a Sonic game??? I want more details on that, what the heck, Sonic games don't have IAP usually, except for mobile games and Sonic Speed Simulator in Roblox! What do they mean IAP +_+!
I'm almost 25 hs in and I'm still not sure if I'm having fun. I'm occupied, sure, I'm killing time, I'm distracted, but I'm not 100% having fun I think.
This is excellent news! I usually don't take the time to branch off a save to experience other romance stories because it's hard to keep track of the different saves and your progress changes between them... it's a mess. But I DEFINITELY will use this new feature!!!
When I recognized Sam I had to double-check which channel was the one hosting the video, I was so excited! I've been following him for a long time, so proud, as a Sonic fan, to see how far he's come!
The grinding tricks remind me a LOT of playing Sonic Frontiers or Sonic x Shadow Generations, which is a good thing because I love that gameplay style.
I honestly hope it doesn't sell well, it seems ridiculous that it's priced, unless it's like... I don't know, 1.99, just to cover some of the development or something.
First I need an app to listen to Nintendo music when I already pay streaming services, now I need an app to get Nintendo news first hand when I already use social medial and browse news media... I don't know, these apps feels like worse service, but we'll see.
I find them hideous and somehow feel like they were pulled from the 80s. I'm an 80's kid, by the way, so I'm not just saying that, I speak from experience. And WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE THEY'RE DIRTY INSIDE ugh. I don't get the... ...apeel.
I still remember an article by IGN back in 2015 saying that a report stated there was a Zelda mobile app in development. It also mentioned a mobile Pokémon card game and we already got that...
I love checking the comments in these articles because I know I will always find user reviews that help me decide whether a game is worthy or not. In this case I'm still not 100% sold, but I will keep an eye on it at least while the offer lasts.
I already experienced that when my studio (then onwned by Gameloft) was closed unexpectedly (60+people), and recently 5 of my current studio's team (we were just 20) also got laid off after the holidays. The industry is in a terrible shape.
Wait OFF has been announced for Switch? OMG!!!!!! Excellent!!!! Too bad it won't have the original OST, it certainly was a huge part of the experience...
That was posted on December 27th. Basically a Día de los Santos Inocentes (day of the holy innocent's day) prank (December 28th, at least in Spain and Argentina it's always been that date, not April 1st like in the USA).
I had such an amazing time with games like Golf Story or Night in the Woods, I certainly recommend them. OneShot too but I think the experience hits better on PC.
Preparing to release Switch 2 when it's financially optimal while trying not to lose NSO subscribers on the month that most 1 year subscriptions end, since they have little to nothing to offer right now
Japan has always had this thing where they sometimes allow some degree of sexual perversion passing it as comedy, especially in manga and anime from the eighties and nineties... Like old men like Happosai stealing panties from Akane-also a minor. At least it's not as often nowadays. I don't blame Australian regulators at all.
