Well the eShop should be an E rated zone I would say. Same way when you go to the movies some trailers are rated ok for all audiences despite it's for an R film. That being said it really is on the parents to keep an eye on kids, Nintendo is down with the kink.
@BigKing I don't see any other consoles after it here Insert Travolta looking around GIF here.
To be fair, I too greatly enjoyed a lot of fighter games on that console. It just didn't make it. I really don't know why. I was extremely young at the time so no idea why it failed.
I always supposed they can release it on the SEGA...oh wait they don't have a console. Maybe I should judge all their games based on the flop that is Dreamcast, Sega Game Gear or that dreaded Sega Genesis stackables turntable of nonsense. Not the genesis alone, that was great.
I was so sad to hear about this. I've added him to list of people I felt close to even though I didn't know just like Steve Irwin or Robin Williams. Guys don't you think it's an odd coincidence, he passed on July which is the seventh month and if you count 4 from the number seven you also get the date and count 4 from that you get the year. I thought that was very odd.
I'm big on cross play and thanks to Fortnite I'm also into Cross Progression. It's awesome to be able to play with people from different consoles. I have an XBOX ONE so it's epic to be able to play with my son while I'm on my Nintendo. I hope Warframe does it as well, even though it seems as of late it is a "No".
@Fake-E-Lee No emails yet bro @Bliquid Hey any news on cross play and progression? Just asking since you said you tested it out and you did play the Mobile version.
I wanted to get set up for Paladins but it's 29.99 until they release the free to play edition. You would think people would have tried to beat Fortnite at least in release date. Also what's up with no cross progression on Hi-Rez titles? Not cool.
Honestly YES Nintendo IP is very important to the investors but we are in competition with other consoles. We need to show 3rd party competence. Other than a few other E3 presentations announcing games that are coming to the Switch, Nintendo really didn't announce anything groundbreaking. While Smash Bros. and Pokémon will be money makers it's not catching the attention of a much broader audience. I wouldn't be surprised if Fortnite alone makes investors change their mind based on volume of players that will flock to that, at least until Android gets it.
Well I am still an active player of Pokémon GO so I will use this more then say someone who only plays switch. Also to be honest the Pokémon GO Plus watch is great, but the batteries aren't rechargeable. I probably play a solid 1 or 2 a day on the watch, the battery life on the controller is 3 hours so I'll save money on these batteries.
I think this should be their next mobile venture because let's face it, I don't think anyone is gonna care about Quality Of Life while playing Switch or 3DS for that matter.
I'm certain this will be the gateway title to get new players to the core game next year, however knowing Nintendo there will be an underlying benefit to getting it for seasoned players.
I am a huge fan of the original, the card game and Pogo so I am totally gonna get into this. There is a lot of questions. Despite not having wild encounters we are still catching in the wild. It is Kanto and will contain the initial 151 Pokémon so I'm stoked about that. GTS is probably not gonna be supported or will be mentioned later on. IV system must be identical to Pogo, but breeding won't exist since this is the Kanto region. I'm still psyched. I want that Pokeball Plus remote. I'm taking my Pikachu to work ya'll!
@Highlar Yea I think right now you can play cross play but like if I want to play with my son on XBOX and play an online match with other people too it won't let me. I would only be able to make a custom match with just him. But yeah crossplay with other people is ok at random.
I don't expect anyone here to know or remember OnLive, however I will say it was the best and premiere cloud gaming experience. It just worked with zero latency as far as controls and response. It was bought out by Sony but cloud gaming can be done. I'm not a fan of having to sign up and keep paying in order to play but if it's like you buy it and it's yours digitally then it would be cool. Kinda like Xboxlive Gold games, where if I cancel Xbox live gold I still have my digital games.
Should be free to play, I can't wait for this to be added...unless Fortnite beats them to the punch. Seriously it's a porting race. Reminds me a little about how Nintendo & SEGA used to compete. Good times.
Virtual Console being gone is terrible especially if your like me and bought some classic games. Eventually we will move entirely out of the realm of compatibility of the digital games I've purchased with no consideration for the customer. I'm super happy about Cloud Save but worried about it only being certain games or not all software. I am not happy with the Voice chat on the phone because you have to know the people you play with in order to use it, I'd prefer it to be open where I can chat with whoever I play with. If they made that small update at least it would be tolerable. Heck we should be able to message people from the app like the XBOX app.
@AlexOlney In your professional opinion, how long until Nintendo patches the switch to brick up due to 3rd party cardboard accessories? The people must know!
@Donutman I had it drop a good deal, making a lot of parts just automatic losses. It really is an awesome game, just such a shame that my whole play through was plagued with the frame rate drops that would almost certainly make me lose. I think mine crashed just a couple of times. I was relieved to finish it to not go back to it based on the comments. It has since been patched but, much like Monica Lewinski and the Clinton administration, it's left a bad taste in my mouth.
I liked TinyBuild but only until Mr. Shifty was released on the Switch and there proposed solution to the frame rate drops and crashing issue was to buy it on another console that did have it working properly. Haven't bought another game since, don't plan to. I mean I understand it's a small team, but don't tell me after I spent some cash on one version to simply buy it on another console.
Well this makes me extremely happy because Tencent Games is also wanting to being things to the Nintendo Switch and if they are in fact publishing existing titles in China to PC and Mobile not a far stretch to see some of those ports making it here to the West.
@AlexOlney Yo you should totally do a comparison of Apple and Android. May not be as Videogame relevant as other topics but now that Nintendo is making apps that works on both OS it would make an interesting read. Not to mention so many other videogame companies that make apps as well.
Guess it's time for me to go back to an Apple Store to compare with my device. I've been there quite a few models ago so surely some stuff has changed but I've never walked out with my mind changed even with help from the store rep, since I go early to avoid the lines there for all the tech help or issues they do. I wish they had a separate store for that.
@Ttimer5 Android also allows you to turn your phone into a Hot Spot. This is phone specific, but that's a benefit of an OS that is open to letting other developers make devices not just one company like Apple. This makes other device makers to thrive to design new features to keep up with the times.
Who would go through the trouble of being Vegan in a game of fantasy? Does that mean you would wield a sword to vanquish people in real life? I'm intrigued in this argument.
@Steven_the_2nd Well damn if iphone is getting the pen then that settles everything. It is now on par with everything android. You read it here live on NintendoLife.
You know I've always wanted a game where you can choose characters like Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad and that they would all have different abilities. Mario has Fludd and Luigi has Poltergust and Peach and Toad can have new gear as well. You can play as one character and just change out gear or play with a friend local or online and you guys can choose different gear. I may be alone on this one though.

Re: 3DS OS Version 11.7.0-40 Is Now Available For Download
