Re: Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Surpass 10 Million Sales In First Three Days, Setting New Nintendo Record

I haven't bought it yet because Pokemon games last me for months! I am only 50 hours into Sword and it is so much better than I was led to believe by all the unjustified hate, so I waited on it.

At this pace I will get the new game once they release a more patched version with included (no doubt) expansion pack - all a benefit for being late to the Pokeparty!

I still have a handful of older games on GBA, DS and 3DS to enjoy as well!

Re: Feature: Wii U Memories - Our Pre-Launch Thoughts On Nintendo's Charming Misstep

I bought the Mario Bros. U edition, fairly early I never liked the console or the gamepad really... I was SO disappointed I tranfered 100 or so WiiWare games to the console transfer and when I stupidly realized I could not play them with the gamepad I felt totally ripped off... though it was my own misunderstanding. I did not know the Wii portion was literally a separate console framework.

Super lame console. I still have it hooked up for "someday" games either as eShop or virtual console games.

I did not buy Switch for years into it because Nintendo had to prove so much to me before I would support them again after such an unfun console.

Re: Anniversary: Fans Celebrate As Metroid Prime Turns 20 Years Old

One of my all-time favorites of any generation.

When I got it Christmas day, I replayed the epic opening section (30 minutes or so) over and over. it was overwhelmingly good and I did not need to move forward with it.

These days I can not replay it due to the slow and excessive SCANNING. I hate it.

All three were very different but the sequels needed a lot more time in the cooker. And were brutal hard and never finished them.

@BenAV
Totally agree with you. With thousands of games that run better than this one on Switch, it is too high in my opinion and not what I see as a fair value for that much. I can certainly live without it and enjoy so many other time-sink games instead of this one. At least there is a demo -because no way I'd ever spend that much on eShop download without knowing first, unless it was a sale impulse buy.

On a system I already (and for many, very recently) paid for and own.... YES! of course. That is real value... time with so many awesome games that perform so well, especially on the OLED model, which was a real "game changer" for me this gen.

Many of us do not have unlimited funds for the games, consoles, upgrades, subscriptions, and controllers and accessories, not to mention endless time to play and enjoy what has become thousands of well performing and a great time for that actual games, including the massive amount of inexpensive Indies!!!

I'm good for quite a while, no matter what they try to hype and sell me.

I really like the first game.. but my god these sequels are coming too often and fast to keep up with, they are not the only games we all have to play. I think no matter how "good" this game may be, it won't matter and games like this are good for one per generation to stay fresh and exciting feeling. Still working through the DK DLC for the first one.

I'll most likely pass on this one altogether because it is just not needed now.
