For all of the comments about delaying the game, I'm not sure if that would have helped as at it's core it's just a bit rubbish. You can't polish everything.
@Aneira I'm not so sure, at this point so many people have worked on FF and FF itself has had dud elements to their games so it's not a guarantee of quality.
It's like hearing somone who wrote on The Simpsons is working on a new show it doesn't mean it's gonna be hayday The Simpsons good, it just means you've got someone who worked on The Simpsons. It could be one of the orginal writers when it was good or one of the guys from 2010s episodes or even just one of the guys who contributed very little to the final draft of the scirpt so it doesn't even matter .
The pic used for Pokemon Trading Card Game makes no sense as it contains Pokemon that didn't debut til Gen 3 which was 4 years after Pokemon Trading Card Game's release.
As much as I like Majoras Mask I can't forgive it for introcuding Tingle but the themes and side missions (especially the alien farm invasion) were all great.
@Gamecuber Nah, A Link Between Worlds is just copying what A Link To The Past did rather than being inspired by Majoras Mask.
I'm assuming the 31st March date is due to the Mayan doomsday prophecy rather than it's the end of Nintendo's financial year which would be a logical place for them to cut off things.

@Damo My head doesn't go to Prince of Persia film as an example since it was a flop, I normally think of Nolan's Batman films were the Middle Eastern Ra's al Ghul and South American Bane are played by the white Liam Neeson and Tom Hardy as examples.

Re: Nintendo Partners With Superstar K-Pop Group TWICE In New Switch Promotion
@Clyde_Radcliffe Brie Larson looked so different back then!
Re: Reminder: Today's The Day - Mario 3D All-Stars, Mario Bros. 35 And More Are Taken Down For Good
Just so I understand this right, all of Mario is being deleted because of some comment he made years ago? It's cancel culture gone mad!

Re: Round Up: The Monster Hunter Rise Reviews Are In
So it got an 8 and a 7.5. Clearly the game must be garbage then! ;p

Re: Rumour Buster: No, Daft Punk Haven't Been Teased For Splatoon 3
Daft Punk just broke up, it would be mental to see them change their mind so soon just for Splatoon.

XCOM 2 is a bargain at the price!

Re: Review: A-Train: All Aboard! Tourism - Switch Tracks With This Complex Business Sim

Re: Video: 2021 Is A Huge Year For Major Nintendo Anniversaries
@Custom1991 Do you need me to explain that an anniversary is different to milestone so you can get the joke ;p

Re: Hot Wheels Is Releasing A Mario Kart Rainbow Road Raceway Track
Kudos for including King Boo who isn’t an obvious choice.
Re: Feature: A Brief History Of Nintendo’s Home Hardware Add-Ons
There's no mention on the expansion pack for the N64, it was the only way to play Donkey Kong 64, Perfect Dark and Majora's Mask.
Re: Feature: Zelda: Majora's Mask Is A Testament To What Nintendo Is Capable Of When It Gets Weird
As much as I like Majoras Mask I can't forgive it for introcuding Tingle but the themes and side missions (especially the alien farm invasion) were all great.
@Gamecuber Nah, A Link Between Worlds is just copying what A Link To The Past did rather than being inspired by Majoras Mask.
Re: Soapbox: I'm Tired Of Ports And Remakes - Where Are All Nintendo's New Ideas?
I disagree about not wanting to live in the 00s, have you seen what the world has become in the 2020s!
Re: The Creator Of Broken Sword Is Bringing Cyberpunk Thriller Beyond A Steel Sky To Switch
I didn't know Dave Gibbons worked on video games, cool.
Re: Soapbox: There Might Be A Bright Side To Mario's March 31st Doomsday, After All
I'm assuming the 31st March date is due to the Mayan doomsday prophecy rather than it's the end of Nintendo's financial year which would be a logical place for them to cut off things.

Re: Numskull Games Is Bringing RICO London To Switch, Along With Four Other Physical Releases

Re: Resident Evil Returns To The Big Screen On September 3rd
@durr Again I said neither so it's not a double standard when I've not made a black or white (pun!) standard ;p
Re: Resident Evil Returns To The Big Screen On September 3rd
@durr Don't put words in my mouth as I didn't say it's ok or not okay ;p

Re: Resident Evil Returns To The Big Screen On September 3rd
I'm now looking forward to Resident Evil taking over from Brie Larson as the crazy comment section articles.
