Once companies become so blatantly greedy, no matter how ones adores Nintendo Icons, they become evil pixels, to make you slowly pay more for less fun. Suddenly you wake up playing a lazy Unity asset flip, paying for the privilege, of not playing anymore.
Not gonna support a game that requires you to Pay/Grind with luck to get the Titled character, Mario. You can buy bundle of 'cosmetics' that cost like buying Mario Kart Deluxe on switch.
tbh tried it, the controls are bad, the UI is very confusing and cluttered, badly design. It's just a bad mobile game. Gave it 1/5 in google play.
Fantastic game marred by confusing marketing. When I bought the digital deluxe on sale I didn’t know if my experience of the gameplay will be impacted without he toys aspect. Needless to say I was proven wrong, luckily it turned out one of the best games I have on the Switch.
I stopped playing on the Switch - Nintendo has fk'd royally this year. Nintendo share price is dropping and dropping, the investors are keen to observe that the Switch is an underperforming hardware suitable for Porting 10y old games "on the go" gimmick. Metroid Prime 4 will be the first out of many delays - expect only more ports this year.
It can run on potato’s and it’s already ported to consoles. The only reason they haven’t released it yet is business facing and other corpo speak of how to best milk your customers and maximazie your price point.
Do they even know that FE Warriors had like half the roster as clones? It's a good game I have 90 hours on but Orochi has around x4 the heroes and almost all of them are unique with animations and combos.
The game flow is also much better as you can equip 3 heroes and switch them. this game is a much much better version muso game then FE Warriors and they gave it 6... meh.
Of course if you never played these game beware, but if you played FE warriors or Hyrule Warriors and enjoy them it's a must.
People in comments don't understand networking. Streaming locally in your home from console to vita or Nvidia streaming is OK cause its has almost no lag. But streaming from a server farm 50ms away and hosting for scale and many many client is a different thing altogether.
when every mouse and keyboard input needs to translate back to remote server and rendered then back over the net as stream of images depending on resolutions and if you want 30fps - it means 30 rendered screens that need to be downloaded to your client every second! so good luck with this on game quality, fidelity and responsiveness.
Good luck with the experiment when you have sheep paying you money for a service that needs perfect network connection. Good luck and thanks for all the Sheep who will support this horrible idea.
As someone who suffers in work using Citrix based app and those are productivity apps not games that needs to spew high fidelity frames and response I know it's BS.
Doing things differently is not reinventing the wheel. There is absolutely nothing innovative in making a bad service that nobody wants to use when you have a standard of communication that everybody uses.
Heck even the keyboard layout wasn't changed since inception due to the fact that people get used to doing same things and the actually more frequency based keyboard layout is better it's experience is bad. Same with communication people are used to it as part of the console/PC not some other device and that's a fact.
Another issue with this horrible app, a lot of countries don't have it on their App Store so it's not a Global App as it should as the Nintendo de facto voice app. Can someone explain why is that?
Nobody speaks about all the countries that can't even download the APP on IOS for example.
I bought the online subscription no problem, I even bought Mario run no problem. But this App for some region is not in my country and it appears that many countries can't due to some Nintendo BS legal crap.
So yea the Online service I payed for is not providing what I'm paying for.
@KcebEnyaw because every other Multiplayer game in the world does so since 2000? its like saying lets keep Lotus Notes, I'm not moving to Outlook or Gmail.
No issue paying 19/year for online services, but how about actual service = backend dedicated servers not this peer 2 peer crap they call online network - their current network configuration was popular in 15 years ago. For example splatoon is region locked to your profile region and not your actual network latency, like WTF (and you can't change anything, move to another country, buy splatoon again)
tbh I don't think they can make an actual gaming network like Sony or Microsoft.
Never owned a PS or played crash. My personal impression after a few hours in, it's a very fine platformer - yes the first one is difficult, toke me 10 times to pass to the second world but it was fun. started playing crash 2 - you can see how it improves on the first and my guess the 3rd even better.
Can't understand the score 7 based on it's difficulty spikes, it's a classic and should be judged by it's passed also. GameSpot gave it 6! and the reviewer declared he didn't finish the game, like what? yes it's hard but the same outlet gave a Kirby game 6 based on how easy it is...
If you want some solid review from a Nintendo outlet that understands platformers go and watch GameExplain on YouTube.
In the metaphysics of Identity, the ship of Theseus (or Theseus's paradox) is a thought experiment that raises the question of whether a ship - standing for an object in general - that has had all of its components replaced remains fundamentally the same object.
First, suppose that the famous ship sailed by the hero Theseus in a great battle has been kept in a harbour as a museum piece. As the years go by some of the wooden parts begin to rot and are replaced by new ones.
After a century or so, all of the parts have been replaced. Is the "restored" ship still the same object as the original? Second, suppose that each of the removed pieces were stored in a warehouse, and after the century, technology develops to cure their rotting and enable them to be put back together to make a ship. Is this "reconstructed" ship the original ship? And if so, is the restored ship in the harbour still the original ship too?
Take for example ADOBE a much bigger and smarter company. They would love to provide their IDE as a fully streamed service just like Office 365 web but they can't due to the fact that latency issues are experienced differently between productivity suites.
Whats good for office apps and browsing does not work for development IDE's graphics apps. In my work we have Citrix server on a lan environment solid and clean and running these apps is horrible - Games will have the same effect - it's not passing the network deltas it's streaming every change and actually processing each user interaction on a server and what it means you need to host GPU farms that costs x10 then what is currently priced and you need to solve the latency (meaning you need to stay very close to those customers physically (less then 10ms reaction) and make sure each of those customers have a powerful internet infra to their ISP.
This will be possible in S. Korean in 5 years from now at least. the Rest of the world can forget about it.
Remember that Blizzard is no more. It's Activision management who decides what blizzard will and can do. I hope they will not put this Lootbox fiesta on a Nintendo system.

I personally will buy games from 3rd party that value Nintendo and their customers and not spit on their faces.
