I don't think 198x is good at all. The gameplay is boring or based on trial and error and the story is almost nonexistant and lacks any kind of depth. The asking price is really high for a 1 hour game.
@brunojenso Ok, I got my fourth one and this one has a good D pad! It's a huge difference too. Diagonals hit all the time. I'll test it some more to see if it is really good enough but so far so good.
@brunojenso Lucky you. I had one that did not register diagonals at all. The second one I had was much better, hadokens where no problem nor were dragon punches. The up right diagonal was really hard to register though so I send both systems back. Worst D pad ever.
The quality of Nintendo hardware has never been this bad. Joycon drift is horrible but Nintendo doesn't acknowledge nor fix the problem. Besides that, the switch lite has the worst Dpad Nintendo has ever made.
Why did this review forget to mention that the D pad is the worst one nintendo ever made? It's worse than the four buttons on the left joycon. Must be those affiliate links!
@Dog no, I'm not. Just surprised that the game is boring after I bought it. Not salty about the purchase either since I buy plenty of games that don't offer me what I want to play. Not salty. Just surprised.

@stevenw45 If nintendo would have fallen for Sony's trick, they wouldn't be around in the way they are now.
Re: Review: Psikyo Shooting Stars Bravo - A Fine Shmup Selection, But Input Lag Remains An Issue
Why did nintendolife give a low score to this game because of inputlag but not to the many other emulated games on switch that have lag as well?

Re: PC Engine Mini Production And Shipment Impacted By Coronavirus
@Gwynbleidd the price is what makes this the most interesting mini console yet.
Re: PC Engine Mini Production And Shipment Impacted By Coronavirus
I ordered mine in time to receive it on the 19th. Somehow I feel this mini console will not be a huge success.

Re: Untitled Goose Dev Will Give "At Least" 1% Of Its Income To Indigenous Australian Groups
@Heavyarms55 exactly. Giving them money for 'rent' is really insulting IMO.

Re: Deals: Switch Lite's Price Drops To Black Friday Level In The UK
@brunojenso Thanks! Yeah, Nintendo has dropped their quality. Malfunctions were unheard of back in the day.
Re: Random: Pixel Artist Imagines What Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Would Look Like On The SNES
Nintendo actually made a 2d version before the 3d one.

Re: Deals: Switch Lite's Price Drops To Black Friday Level In The UK
@brunojenso They need to be more consistent. I send back a third unit because it had a dead pixel. One more try and I'm done with the lite.

Re: Deals: Switch Lite's Price Drops To Black Friday Level In The UK
I would buy a switch lite after Nintendo improved the terrible D pad.

Re: Hardware Review: Live Your Life As A Giant With The Tiny 8BitDo Zero 2 Controller
@eRaz0r but it is not. The pro can handle diagonals and hadokens.
Re: Hardware Review: Live Your Life As A Giant With The Tiny 8BitDo Zero 2 Controller
@eRaz0r you must be kidding. The lite has the worst D pad ever.
