Considering the type of controversy Stella Blade received from certain “gAMes JouRNaLisTs”, I’m glad to see it at the top of the charts and hope it continues for a while.
Just wish it was on PC so I could support too. Though, it’s a shame about the lying and censorship.
An update that “inadvertently” but specifically removed content that is typically disapproved by “modern devs & tourists”. But oh no, it was a mistake, but only when it gets called out.
It could have done some good for the Metroid series by simply being exposed to a larger audience, I know I would have given Fortnite some attention if Samus was there, but you do you Nintendo.
There are far worse things than Samus being in Fortnite, and if the latest Pokemon GO! update is anything to go off, said “worse things” may not be too far away.
I really wish SE would remaster FF Explorers with online multiplayer. Just another good game, wasting away on the 3DS.
But FF XII is my favourite FF game, with the Tactics games closely following, loved The War of the Lions on PSP, though I still need to play a few more of them, planning on finishing VI and jumping into IX.
Meh, had a couple of glitches here and there, sensitivity in BF2 is kinda rubbish. But I’ve been having a blast with these games, with a couple of good online matches. I still find these games to be better than EA’s offerings in the gameplay department, so I hope they end up becoming a lot more solid in the end.
After all that time, buying up devs and IPs, only for it to all fall apart now.
But if there was anything I’d like to see Nintendo benefit from this, is that they’d get their hands on the TimeSplitters IP. It’s pretty much the only FPS I want.
The biggest take away for me is the fact that it’s a 2025 release. So likely a next-gen release, but also the fact that it’ll likely have more development time than past titles.
There’s only like 5 more Rareware games of “value” left for Nintendo to get. That being Conker, Perfect Dark, Banjo Tooie, Killer Instinct Gold and one that even MS will never get their hands on Diddy Kong Racing. Just a matter of time, imo.
Personally don’t care for NFL, as it’s not my country’s sport, and not nearly as exciting as they make it out to be in the movies. But I would have like to of seen the Blood Bowl games on Switch.
BB3 was announced, never released but never cancelled afaik, but was a pretty mediocre game in the end. A port of BB2 would have been nice.
We should already have all Nintendo 1st party games on each NSO “app” by now and moved on to GameCube, Wii and DS “apps”. It’s kinda ridiculous how long it has taken , for so little to be available.
@axelhander never said they were going after the devs. But just for clarity, my saying that they were “fine with the base game” i.e. they haven’t found any wrongdoing and the fact that they know copyright laws better than any keyboard warrior.
And in this case, like many others, Nintendo have every right to go after people using their IPs. And unless they actually find something “wrong” with the base game, I doubt that they’ll go after it.
They could handle it like the Steam Deck and release multiple versions with different storage spaces. But at a minimum, I think 256GB console storage, with the ability to add on, is reasonable.

Re: Review: Animal Well (Switch) - An Exceptional Metroidvania That Stands Out From The Pack
The game to finally knock Super Mario Bros. 2 off the GotY pedestal.
Re: Review: Little Kitty, Big City (Switch) - Repetitive, But Oozes Charm From Every Paw
Ahh, a safe, good ol’ IGN 7/10.
Re: Review: Animal Well (Switch) - An Exceptional Metroidvania That Stands Out From The Pack
Hope y’all wished list this game. It’s like Halo 2 meets Halo 3.
Re: Round Up: Celebrate Star Wars Day 2024 On The Nintendo Switch
It used to be a great franchise not all that long ago. Now? Yeah, not so much.

Re: Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Will Restore Missing Posters In Patch 3
Strange that NLife still hasn’t talked about the dialogue change in Paper Mario:TTYD yet.
FYI, they changed the dialogue where in the OG game Goombella gets catcalled.
Re: Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Will Restore Missing Posters In Patch 3

Gaslighting at its finest.
Re: Fortnite's New Setting Lets You Hide "Confrontational Emotes"
Such is the fragile nature of the “modern gamer”.
Re: Review: Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes (Switch) - An Immersive JRPG With Some Real Problems
You guys should and need to criticise the bad localisation in games more.
Re: Nintendo Apparently Wanted Samus Aran's Fortnite Skin To Be A Switch Exclusive
It could have done some good for the Metroid series by simply being exposed to a larger audience, I know I would have given Fortnite some attention if Samus was there, but you do you Nintendo.
There are far worse things than Samus being in Fortnite, and if the latest Pokemon GO! update is anything to go off, said “worse things” may not be too far away.
Re: Lara Croft's Pinup Posters Go Missing In Tomb Raider I-III Remastered
But NLife still isn’t going to talk about the ridiculous Pokémon GO! update, right?
Re: Lara Croft's Pinup Posters Go Missing In Tomb Raider I-III Remastered
@smithyo Agreed. It always starts small. Eventually they’ll take and change everything till it’s unrecognisable, usually going for the worse.
Re: Soapbox: Where The Heck Is Fallout 3 On Switch?
I’d prefer New Vegas over 3 or 4, but I’d be happy with any of them on the Switch or its successor.
Re: Select Pokémon X Van Gogh Museum Merch Has Been Restocked Online
So you guys are just going to ignore the ridiculous Pokémon GO! update and the backlash?
Re: Soapbox: Where The Heck Is Fallout 3 On Switch?
I guess The Outer Worlds is the closest thing we’ll get to a Fallout game on Switch. Fallout Shelters don’t count.
Re: Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Update 2 Now Available, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
It’s a damn shame hearing how CD plan to kill this franchise.
Re: Feature: 13 Studios That Should Take A Nintendo Series For A Genre Spin
Wow, a lot of these are terrible ideas.

Re: Free Radical Co-Founder Is Probably Done With TimeSplitters For Good
Nintendo, buy the TimeSpitters IP, please!
Re: Poll: What's The Best Final Fantasy Game? Rate Your Favourite Mainline & Spin-Offs

Re: Feature: 33 Games We're Surprised Still Aren't On Switch
In other news, the emulator SUYU has been hit with a DMCA from Nintendo and has been removed from GitLab. lol
Re: Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection Update 1 Outlined, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Meh, had a couple of glitches here and there, sensitivity in BF2 is kinda rubbish. But I’ve been having a blast with these games, with a couple of good online matches.

Re: More Princess Peach: Showtime! Launch Goodies Revealed (US)
They used the old Peach design on the game cover and the new Peach design on the cup.
Re: Pokémon Executives On Anime Return Of Ash And Pikachu: "Anything Is Possible"
Finally seeing an older Ash would be cool to see.
Re: Switch Emulator Yuzu To Pay $2.4 Million To Nintendo & Cease Development
But the internet lawyers said Nintendo didn’t have a case?
The only truly surprising part of all this is how quickly it all went down, from lawsuit announcement to case settlement.
Re: Crash Bandicoot Dev Toys For Bob Splits From Activision & Xbox, Goes Independent
Maybe they can work with Nintendo now and remake a dormant IP or two. Star Fox Adventures or Wario World could be cool.
Re: Saber Interactive Is Reportedly Splitting From Embracer Group
After all that time, buying up devs and IPs, only for it to all fall apart now.
But if there was anything I’d like to see Nintendo benefit from this, is that they’d get their hands on the TimeSplitters IP. It’s pretty much the only FPS I want.
Re: Electronic Arts Lays Off 5% Of Its Workforce
Interesting, the AAA companies are dying and the indies devs are thriving.
Re: Talking Point: What Would Make You Happy To Give Up Physical Games And Go 100% Digital?
For one thing, digital games should be cheaper than physical. And they should already be refundable globally.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A Announced, Coming To Switch In 2025
The biggest take away for me is the fact that it’s a 2025 release. So likely a next-gen release, but also the fact that it’ll likely have more development time than past titles.
Hoping for the best here.
Re: Brawlhalla Star Wars Event Adds Anakin And Obi-Wan Next Month
Interesting that they’ve used RotS characters.
Re: Talking Point: Which Xbox Games Would You Like To See Come To Switch?
The Psychonauts games seem like a no-brainer. Still dumbfounded they never put the games on a Nintendo console.
Re: Random: Some Rare Fans Are Upset About The Latest Switch Online Announcement
There’s only like 5 more Rareware games of “value” left for Nintendo to get. That being Conker, Perfect Dark, Banjo Tooie, Killer Instinct Gold and one that even MS will never get their hands on Diddy Kong Racing.
Just a matter of time, imo.
Re: Best Tomb Raider Games, Ranked - Lara Croft On Switch And Nintendo Systems
I prefer the Tomb Raider Trilogy that consists of Legends, Anniversary & Underworld, more than even the latest TR reboot games.
Though it was kinda nice to see concept art of the newest TR game looking more like the OG design, though unfortunately lacking certain assets.
Re: Every American Football Game On Nintendo Switch
Personally don’t care for NFL, as it’s not my country’s sport, and not nearly as exciting as they make it out to be in the movies. But I would have like to of seen the Blood Bowl games on Switch.
BB3 was announced, never released but never cancelled afaik, but was a pretty mediocre game in the end. A port of BB2 would have been nice.
Re: Sega Reports 'Sluggish' Sales Of Sonic Superstars And Other Major Titles
Sonic Superstars suffered because of a bad release date and bad pricing.
Re: Japanese Charts: PS5 Newbies Dampen Apollo Justice's Opening Statement
It’s the best I’ve seen PS do in Japan since the WiiU days.
Re: Feature: 21 Game Boy Advance Games We'd Love To See Added To Nintendo Switch Online
We should already have all Nintendo 1st party games on each NSO “app” by now and moved on to GameCube, Wii and DS “apps”. It’s kinda ridiculous how long it has taken , for so little to be available.
Re: Soapbox: After Years Of Lengthy RPG Tutorials, Golden Sun Feels Fresher Than Ever
I wanna see these games remade, in a similar vein as DQXI, along with Golden Sun Dark Dawn and a sequel to follow.
Re: Yes, Nintendo Is Aware Of Palworld's Existence
Yes, Nintendo knows how to use the internet and is much more aware of copyright laws than keyboard warriors.
Re: Random: Former Nintendo Employees Kit & Krysta Share Their Initial Reaction To Palworld
@PessitheMystic
Completely agree, unfortunately we’ll likely be waiting till the February direct before they shut up about it.
Re: Palworld Has A Pokémon Mod, Though Video Takedowns Are Already Being Dished Out
@axelhander never said they were going after the devs. But just for clarity, my saying that they were “fine with the base game” i.e. they haven’t found any wrongdoing and the fact that they know copyright laws better than any keyboard warrior.
And in this case, like many others, Nintendo have every right to go after people using their IPs. And unless they actually find something “wrong” with the base game, I doubt that they’ll go after it.
Re: Round Table: Let's Talk About Palworld - Comparisons, Controversy, 'Copying'
How about we don’t?
Re: Palworld Has A Pokémon Mod, Though Video Takedowns Are Already Being Dished Out
Another clear case of FAFO. Nintendo & Pokemon Co. were fine with the base game, but people just had to push it.
Re: Pokémon Fans Set Their Sights On Palworld's Monster Designs
You can barely even call it subtle.
Re: When Will The First Nintendo Direct Of The Year Be? Let's Look To The Past
There’s already been a leak that it’s happening in February.
Re: 'Alisa Developer's Cut' Channels PS1 Survival Horror In All The Right Ways
This just makes me want ports/remasters of the America McGee’s Alice games and Haunting Ground.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's GBA Library With Two RPG Classics Next Week
Love these games. But man do I want them to be remade. Remade as 3D game, with the gameplay style similar to DQXI
Re: Poll: How Much Internal Storage Would Be Reasonable For 'Switch 2'?
They could handle it like the Steam Deck and release multiple versions with different storage spaces. But at a minimum, I think 256GB console storage, with the ability to add on, is reasonable.
Re: Pokémon TV App Is Being Discontinued Later This Year
Most of it is on Netflix, plus that new claymation show, which is actually quite good.
