I don’t like the headline of this. As if every Nintendo release is scalped. These headlines make it happen and it shouldn’t because the product will be receiving new shipments regularly, just like the 3d mario romset...
@JDubElijah Famitsu score is just nothing. It can be bought if you want. It’s just PR. There is no relation to the scale 0-10 most people here seem to use.
It’s more like 36/40 should translate to 9, but they give this to a lot of Japanese games. So it’s not relatable anymore and could easily translate to 6/10. Famitsu numbers don’t say anything anymore
Nintendo is letting external developers use their IP. I think this should have been done way more, but primarily let them use the IP in their original genre. Or Nintendo should have bought more studios.
Also, I know how Nintendo works, but that still makes me miss the kind of output and diversity they had in 2017. Plus, studios like Retro had some support work for Switch titles but no output.
If Nintendo isn’t capable of keeping up, maybe they should expand like Sony and MS did last few years? Or they should have helped studios like Alphadreams and Cing, but they let them die.
Output could be better. As a former WiiU-owner who doesn’t like to pay 60 for their ports it is kinda meh...
@WiltonRoots No, but maybe it helps some readers in their decision to buy these cheap efforts or not. Nintendolife isn’t objective and will give any Nintendo published retailgame a 8/10, 9/10 or 10/10.
@Ventilator that collection was a really cheap romdump what seems to be defended by Nintendo-fans...
I hope that collection didn’t screw up plans for Nintendo. Seeing that collection going to 10 million will surely stop them for putting effort in ports. Why should they? Fans adore these romdumps and it sells like crazy. Heck, Nintendolife 9/10
Look at those disgusting low res ground textures. This is a really low effort port. I hate it. Pikmin 3 is a great game, but Nintendo should really start putting some more effort in their lazy ports.

Re: Poll: Are You Getting Any Of These New Nintendo Switch Releases?
I love handhelds, so the Game & Watch is a must for me
Re: The First Review For Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity Is Now In
@JDubElijah uh yes.
Re: Hacker Tears Apart Super Mario Game & Watch To Find Out What's Inside

Wow, small memory....
Re: NPD: Switch Sold More Units In Q3 2020 Than Any Platform Since The DS In Q3 2009 (US)
@westman98 For the players it was kinda meh. Old ports are fun, absolutely. But those shouldn't be teh main attraction.
Paper Mario was a step up, but not as good as the N64 and Gamecube games.
So records based on releases it's absolutely not..
Re: The First Review For Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity Is Now In
@BAN Famitsu numbers don’t say anything. You can literally just buy them. The magazine is to promote games, not to judge.
Re: NPD: Switch Sold More Units In Q3 2020 Than Any Platform Since The DS In Q3 2009 (US)
That’s because of all those great new releases by Nintendo in Q3!!!
Oh wait...

Re: The First Review For Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity Is Now In
@Abeedo 36/40 translates to 6/10
38 and up is great haha

Dutch is oke! No problems here.
Re: Switch Version Of Ubisoft's Prince Of Persia Remake Resurfaces Online
A remake? That seems like too much effort. We need 60 dollar direct ports.
Re: Nintendo's FY 2021 Digital Sales Have Risen 139.4% Compared To Last Year
So, what is the balance now? Digital vs physical?
Are we over 50%?
Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Release Windows For Major Switch Games, With Plenty Being 'TBA'
Nothing to see here
Re: Eighting Helped Nintendo Bring Pikmin 3 To The Switch
@Nemesis666 as you can see in your provided link, there are 10 teams. Thise teams consist of almost 2000 people.
We don’t know what they are doing, or do we?
This silence always happens with Nintendo when new hardware is coming.
Re: Eighting Helped Nintendo Bring Pikmin 3 To The Switch
Alright, so every ‘big’ release the last few months and the coming months is not from Nintendo (or just a gimmick)....
What is Nintendo doing? Is this the buildup towards Switch 2.0?

Re: Retro Studios Is Expanding Its HQ In 2021 To Aid Development Of Metroid Prime 4
Metroid Prime 4 is vaporware for now.
Re: Poll: Pikmin 3 Deluxe Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
Nope, low effort port. Textures looks terrible. This shouldn’t be 59.99.
But hey, it’s Nintendo so we’ll love it.
Re: Hitman 3 Is Coming To Switch, Just Don't Try To Play This One Offline
Interesting to see how this will work. It’s cloudgaming; something a lot of gamers are afraid of.
Re: Part Time UFO, The Latest Switch Game From HAL Laboratory, Is Available Right Now
I loved this game on my iPhone. Who said mobile games aren’t fun?
Re: Review: Pikmin 3 Deluxe - Perhaps Not Worth A Double Dip, But The Choice Pick For New Players
I... maybe it's just me, but those graphics look really bad....
Re: Rumour: 'Switch Pro' Could Feature A Mini-LED Display, According To A New Report
I don’t believe that. Too expensive. Nintendo never opted for the most modern screen technology
Re: SuperData: 3D All-Stars Is Now The Biggest Digital Launch For A Mario Game On Nintendo Switch
We did it!! Aren’t we proud, more romdumps for 60 dollar.
We are the best fans, yay!!
Re: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & The Blade Of Light Switch eShop File Size Revealed
Should have been a nes online game like it is in Japan.
Re: Poll: Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
Too expensive, not that much body and uhm too expensive
Re: Review In Progress: Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit
@Razer and should be discussed in the review. Playin together will need an extra Switch and two packages of 120 euro.
That is more than the price of a new nextgen console.
Re: Nintendo Is Being Sued Over Joy-Con Drift Yet Again, This Time By A Child
@Donkey-Kong-Fan thanks for the insult *****. Do you think this multimillion-dollar company loves you?
The joy-con is a bad product, basta.
Re: Review: FIFA 21 - EA Insults Switch Owners Yet Again With This Half-Baked Effort

Re: Nintendo Is Permanently Reducing The Price Of Switch Joy-Con In Japan
Cool! Bring it on.
Thanks to the fact that these break so fast, it’s only nice of them to lower the price
Re: Frame Rate And Resolution For Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo Seemingly Revealed
@Nemesis666 that is not a nice response.

Re: Frame Rate And Resolution For Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo Seemingly Revealed
@FantasiaWHT because journalist seem to defend this behavior as are Nintendo fans. Thus Nintendo gets away with this.
This is 2020 for Nintendo. I miss the Nintendo of 2017, with magical games, effort and unique, new games.
Re: Frame Rate And Resolution For Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo Seemingly Revealed
Haha, Nintendo being cheap as it gets. Nintendolife: 9/10
Re: Game Dev Tycoon Has You Running Your Own Game Studio, And It's Out On Switch Today
I got this game for 0.99 cent on iOS in 2012. It’s fantastic!
Now 2020, add some Nintendo switch tax and tada 14.99
Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop
@WiltonRoots No, but maybe it helps some readers in their decision to buy these cheap efforts or not. Nintendolife isn’t objective and will give any Nintendo published retailgame a 8/10, 9/10 or 10/10.
Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop
@WiltonRoots I love my Switch. I don’t like developers doing cheap and asking unfair high prices.
Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop

Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop
@Ventilator I just hate it when people think these high price ports are justified because nobody bought them on WiiU. It’s just incorrect.
Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop
@sword_9mm mariokart 8 on wiiu sold 8 million. It’s not that games on wiiu didn’t sell.
A lot of publishers wish they can sell 8 million copies of their games.
Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop
@Ventilator haha, great reaction. I’m really not sure why Nintendo keeps getting free passes with these low effort, full price ports.
Re: You Can Now Download A Free Pikmin 3 Deluxe Demo From The Switch eShop
Look at those disgusting low res ground textures. This is a really low effort port. I hate it. Pikmin 3 is a great game, but Nintendo should really start putting some more effort in their lazy ports.
Re: Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered Officially Announced For Nintendo Switch
Great price! Wish Nintendo did this with their lame ass ports.
Re: Nintendo Is Being Sued Over Joy-Con Drift Yet Again, This Time By A Child
Go child! F#ck Nintendo for being unfair and delivering bad products.
Re: UK Charts: Super Mario 3D All-Stars Gets Kicked Out Of First Place
@Nemesis666 I like to defend effort vs cheap dumps. Glad people like the fullprice romdumps vs a full effort.
Re: UK Charts: Super Mario 3D All-Stars Gets Kicked Out Of First Place
Crash vs Cashgrab.
1-0 for Crash. Not too bad
Re: Review: Super Mario Bros. 35 - A Six-Month Jolt Of Life For An Iconic Classic
