The comment that irks me “Investors hate greatness”....he was just a dude who was kinda creepy to look at, that was doing what he was meant to do, sell Nintendo products. He wasn’t great. Now stop giving him the reach around and let’s get on with this retirement already
@Yosher I mean, if these "gaming news" sites (and I use that term loosely when it comes to NL) didn't report on it, it wouldn't be a problem, and we wouldn't hear about it as much, but their integrity is in their butt these days.
The sad thing is, people keep paying the vultures at LRG for [removed] like this and letting them think it's okay to chuck a cardboard puzzle board and some pins together and call it a CE.
Though it doesn't mean it's sold particularly well, just because it's sold more than Steam on early access. That could equate to a few thousand downloads for all we know.
Just because it's now covered the cost of porting, does not a success story make.
I won't even give that video any clicks because well, R.I.P is pointing at something that is dead, where this is still selling with a couple of games due out this year. It's just retiring.
Meanwhile, I've spent the last week playing Etrian Odyssey Nexus and it's great.
Damn, we all know Nintendo Life posted this just to get some salty, entitled fanboys having a whine about a first world problem. Who cares? Don't buy it, buy it, just do you.
@rushiosan what irony? I mean, even PS4 users have trouble storing more than 10 - 20 games (less than I can store on my 128GB card for Switch by a long shot) due to size.
Gee wiz, for a game that I completed in 4 hours, with only 3 islands (and they are small, one stage affairs) with a couple of extra small 5-10 minute maps thrown in, and a story that made me think the rest is coming as DLC, I'm surprised at the score. Yep, it's for kids, and it's fun, I had a ball...but I wonder why this game gets such a good score for what it does wrong at the same time. Glad someone enjoyed it though, I sure did, just not the amount I paid for the equivalent of watching the first 2 films in length,
Oh what a shame that the box that sits on a shelf with it's "matches every other game on the shelf" spine facing out has a warning about downloads at the top. All those hours I would be starring at the box, will be wasted.
Why do people defend the nasty people at LRG? They make you pay and can't cancel (obviously they are over their head with the amount of games on back order and their slow packing because they want the interest earned on all our money etc, and don't want more staff). Stuff comes up, I had a funeral, had to travel, asked to cancel, was threatened with being banned. The whole "limited release" scene is just there to suck money out of people with more dollars than sense.
We all know that if Limited Run or Super Rare has announced a physical of this NintendoLife would be on all fours doing whatever is needed for a copy of that limited goodness
Limited Run are horrid - if you say one thing wrong, they jump on you like you've murdered a child.
Super Rare - an expensive club to order 2 days early is a bad cash in.
Play-Asia, I like them, they hardly release anything or make a huge fuss.
Strictly Limited - not really sure...just another cash in on collectors. The market is saturated. I sold all my Limited Run/Super Rare when they got angry for saying "seems like a cash grab" and introduced a lousy "club".
Shame LRG don't let you cancel, last person I know who did, got "banned for life" lol. Bell-Ends.
Anyone but the LRG vultures would have been better. I can't stand that if you have a negative comment or experience, those guys get really upset and attack their customer base. I wish I could cancel my orders that are in place, because I can't support this.

Re: Limited Run Is Publishing The Switch Physical Edition Of Another World
@Rodan2000 wouldn't be Limited Run Games if they weren't milking their cash grabs for all they are worth though.

Re: Cytus Alpha Physical Release Brings Rhythm To North America This April
@Retupmocnin Good luck getting nerdy male gamers to put together a sexy male robot with the power of music.
Re: Cytus Alpha Physical Release Brings Rhythm To North America This April
@Joeynator3000 google bro. It's a wonderful invention.
It's a teaser. A quick teaser unlike the 15 garage that was Last of Us 2 teaser video.
Plenty of Japanese Cytus videos.
