I prefer a proper port with the DS bonus content to a remake. why? because Square Enix ruins 9/10 remakes. (on the other hand they also ruin 9/10 ports )

still not a fan.
I think the ? Block was a great set but besides that I couldn't get warm with any nintendo set so far.

I hope we will see a bit of what they are cooking at the switch 2 direct.
I hope they do not hire any game designers or writers from Square Enix, since they are not on the level of Monolith in my opinion.

@JustMonika
Expect those imports to be 20% more expansive soon .

@Ultimapunch
I think the only reason Trump is making those tariffs is to pressure other countries to obey the US. He doesn't want to have those tariffs for a long time he just want to have a lever in other negotiations. BUT I think he is misjudging this and this will come back like a boomerang. All of the US allies are already upset and are gonna prepare counter actions. This is just not helping anyone.
I believe in people should tread other people with kindness and with respect and Trumps politic is the opposite of this. Only hate hate and more hate... I'm pretty sure mankind don't needs this.

man I'm so excited to go back to Mira once again .

@MrCarlos46 thanks for pointing out. I could have bet they were made in china. its still possible that parts of them were made in china but not sure if it's effected by tarifs then

@TenEighty I know I'm not able to convince you from the opposite but maybe I can convince you to look in your arguments more deeply.
First of all not every thing that happens during a presidents time is caused by that president. Also some decisions he made might have caused an effect after his period.
That the US and most of the rest of the world had an inflation had nothing to do with anyone in the white house.

All economic scientist say having tarifs is bad for the consumers. That the US is exporting less than they import is partly also a problem of the items they sell. if americans wouldn't order that much trash from temu or amazon it would help already. and that no one wants american cars except of tesla is just because others make better once.

@MrCarlos46 they are produced in china not japan

their year was not great last year.
too many okish games

i wish they would have made the graphics as good as in the mobile game for the remaster

always expect nothing if you go into a pkm presents. usually its lots of mobile game updates and some cash grab stuff like classic edition pkm cards for insane prices.

man it's very hard to see any difference at all except of the new faces

if the switch version would run better I'm sure more people would have bought it.
I hope for a switch 2 version of civ

i love the miiverse but it had some flaws

Kid: Mum can we have Castlevania?

Mum: We have Castlevania at home

Castlevania at home -> Chronicles of the Wolf

@Serpenterror
they might sell more game if they would not scare away core gamers with a horrible store.
Some people just stopped using the store.

and if they do not limit the scam than they should implement an algorithm like steam does. there you have at least as much scam as on the switch but you will never even see it.

it's really the worst thing about the switch...
I have zero confidents that the switch 2 has a better eshop.

so we can assume that 9% of the people just clicked the wrong button by accident right ?

its very unlikely that until the switch 2 direct Nintendo is only going to highlight xenoblade.
So yes , direct next week sounds realistic to me

I still going to buy as much as possible physical.

would be interesting to see how this chart looks like for switch only.

I always thought earthblade looks a bit generic. Not bad but also somehow like I have seen this sort of game already 100 times.
I think this split might be a good thing.

After the reviews people are biased anyway

why do people believe that more racers would make the game better

I love that guy

@Reztobi haha sorry but you can't believe that Ubisoft is the reason that the industry is in a crisis? It's not a good thing that tencent is now taking over. why would you want one of the biggest and most creedy companies in the world, controlled by a corrupt dictatorship country to take over?

I think emulation is great but there is no reason to emulate current gen hardware. 99% or more of the people who use current gen emulation are also pirates.

if its the same as the 2010 one how can it be a 7/10.
anyways I'm salty the didn't fix all the graphical issues, so I likely not gonna buy it

@jesse_dylan why do you think it's overrated?

I would buy it a third time but only if they have fixef all the graphical issues that have been shown in the trailers.
If I pay 60 this needs to be the best version and not a worse looking one

@Not_Soos I think the main issue is that 99% of them are not good enough.
This one looks too unpolished... also there is nothing more ugly than an upscaled n64 game. in their situation i would have kept the resolution down and add more things, that look like n64 but havn't been possible on tha actual machine (like more moving grass etc).

@Pho
It also wouldn't be my personal number one but I still think it's the best game of all time. I think just design wise there is nothing that comes close, even now 7 years later (not even tears of the kingdom which I think has worse game design).

I very rarely agree on those "best of all time" lists, but this one is really spot on.

@somnambulance may I ask how old you are?
I just can't believe that someone who played 6,7,8,9 and 10 could some how believe that the modern games are better. I could make a long list why they aren't.
that being said I don't want to ruin your fun with it, it's great that you like those games.

@Greenmanalishi I couldn't agree more.
Final Fantasy was religion to me till FF13, which was a mess and they couldn't recover after it.
bad written characters and stories, clunky battle systems etc.

if its real, it's the worst possible console reveal ever

@Astropez If legaly used art to train the AI is used then ofc it's not theft.
Ai art makes sense to use in a not final product, as a tool in the creation of something.

@FantasiaWHT no they are not doing the same thing that a human does. please read a bit more about that topic and you will see it's not that simple.
there are even appraisals from academics who say it's breaking the copyright laws.
And as I said, it doesn't benefit anyone except the big AI companies. you as a consumer will just get more crap.

@Astropez I hope your post was meant to be ironic

@FantasiaWHT
I'm not completely against AI stuff but especially AI art is theft and because of that your comparison to the past is just not fitting.
You can use AI as a tool and that's great and will benefit humanity (hopefully) but video games are an art form and with that part of our culture. Robots cannot create culture and shouldn't create culture.
When Youtubers use AI art I have no problem with it, it's normally not a work of art.

@bluemage1989 nice that you promoting theft.
who do you think wins if AI is getting used more and more? the consumer who get worse quality but a lot more crap?
no my friend the only one who win are the giant companies. you will lose. this time they didn't steal from you but when they do it, don't expect any solidarity from others

and the next ai box art game. wtf when you have the money to make a game like this, you should have the money for an key art artist...

the eshop is a scam nightmare.
I really don't understand why nintendo is not doing something about it.
it could be such a healthy platform for indies, if they would get rid of the scam crap

@dugan
hey thank you.
I would say a core gamer is a gamer who actively seeks out for information about different games on a regular basis.
So everyone who reads websites like this regularly, is a core gamer for me.
But I also think that those groups are not homogeneous. In the core gamer segment you have people who do play Mario Games but other might only play high complex simulation games like Rimworld.

@VoidofLight that is just half the truth.
there is no casual audience anymore playing outside of their smart phone.
some years ago you could have sayed there is a core, mainstream and casual audience but even that is not accurate anymore.

on switch you just have mainstream, core and something between mainstream and casual.

just to make sure, mainstream audience are people who mainly play games like fortnite, fifa, call of duty, minecraft etc.
those gamers are the biggest part on all systems and those gamers do not care if the latest pokemon sucks, they still buy it and they have fun with it even though it looks and plays bad.

oh and those mainstream gamers would never buy a lenovo handheld because they can play their games more easy and cheaper on a switch or a ps5

@Bolt_Strike it's not really competition.
the steam deck sold far less units than the wii u and lenovos system is going to sell even less.
those systems just target very very niche audiences.

@WhensDinner
you say it already the look pretty much the same but they always have slight differences. it's naive to believe those images are real in a time of ai and 3d printing. for those third party companies it's free advertising...

haha all those third party companies laugh about how easy it is to get free Advertisement on the biggest Nintendo website. just make a fake mockup and tell everyone it's the real thing. why should those companies have information like this so long before the actual thing is coming out? it makes no sense

both look super cool

streetpass and 3d screen would be dope... but i hope they just have something new

@superdad64 no one cares about the censorship of the game. it doesn't change the experience at all. it's all in your mind.
I'm also not a fan of censorship but you also have to be realistic.
