I've always dreamed of Splatoon and Pikmin on PC benefiting greatly from keyboard/mouse controls. Motion controls definitely beat aiming with a joystick once you learn how to use them but all I can think about while playing Splatoon is how much easier it would be to whip the mouse around to quickly target those behind you for example. Sometimes I feel like the motion controls fight me a bit more than a mouse would. Breath of the wild looks good at 60fps too. Hell, I was amazed at what HD did for skyward sword's visuals through emulation. But I get it, they probably profit a ton from selling their consoles.
People mad that there isn't the usual Chuck-E-Cheese prizes instead of actual games which are generally more entertaining. Yeah there's a lot of VC bull, but between DKC3D, Game & Wario, those aren't bad prizes. It's just most of us have those in one form or another. Such is everything else they offer as prizes - the games we've bought or the games we didn't want to buy.
This game is just bad. The game only runs in 2D during the main part at 15 FPS. Gameplay is so mindless it can be played with eyes shut. The leveling up system is pointless and doesn't add anything to the experience; it only complicates things and messes things up. Don't waste the $30.
I'm wary of Nintendo's "I can, I just don't want to" attitude with online gaming. I've played online Wii Tennis and the lag is as bad as it is on Brawl. Nintendo will go out of business before it gets Online right.
That awkward moment when you're trying to explain to somebody how I used to play the old Wii Sports: Golf - involving sitting on the couch with my WiiMote turned sideways while flicking my wrist at just the right velocity...
Lame. Get with the times, Ninty. Don't exclude a standard option because local MP is fun. I'm rarely ever around people who like Mario, Pikmin, or even video games in general.

Re: Shulk Gets Another Encore In Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition For Switch
I really hope they add a fast-forward button. The pacing of this game feels numbingly slow at times...

Re: Talking Point: An Unplanned Flash Sale Looked Like Retail Download Genius from Nintendo
This is why I built a PC. Buy $60 games for under $10.
Re: You'll Want To Check Out These New Senran Kagura 2 Screenshots
But will it run at 15 frames per second in 2d only with stiff animations and broken mechanics like the first?
Re: Nintendo Left Online Out Of Super Mario 3D World To Deliver The "NES" Experience
