Re: Zelda And Nintendo Win Big At The 2018 D.I.C.E. Awards

@Shellcore Dude, Mario and Rabbids gets deep in its combat then you would think. Just because it has Rabbids in it that doesn't mean the overall game design is impacted by them. The combat system(While obviously being a reskin of a certain other RPG) is just as deep.

Re: Nintendo Kicks Off A Big Sale on the North American 3DS eShop

@thesilverbrick As Dillons Rolling Western: The Dead Heat Breakers. The third game of a strong series of 3ds games. So thats 3 games coming from Nintendo themselves this year. Which isn't bad given that late 2017 we still got a ton of 3DS games as well, including Mario Party Top 100, and Metroid: Samus's Return. And given that E3 2017 revealed 3ds games to release after E3 through 2017, and through the beginning of 2018. That shows what E3 this year could do.

I see the Switch as being for the main games like Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odessey, while the 3DS will continue on with games like Link Between Worlds or Samus's Return. And don't forget, Eiji Aonuma already stated his plans for the next 2D Zelda game, so the 3ds may end up getting 1 last Zelda game, which should change the way we see 2D Zelda games, as he put it.

@thesilverbrick Wait till E3. This direct was mostly focused on Switch announcements while 3ds just covered most games already announced last E3. I doubt the 3DS is going to die this soon as there is still a ton of money to make off the system. And don't forget that they aren't wasting any resources by having people work on the 3DS games, just like how they have a Handheld team for Zelda, and a Console Team for Zelda. And trying to move members from one side to the other would only slow production down due to the different methods and system each team has to work with.

Re: Review: Stern Pinball Arcade (Switch eShop)

@thesilverbrick Well, it depends on your tastes really. if Pinball doesn't keep your attention then it's obviously not for you. But I have always loved Pinball. Watching the ball bounce around, gathering points, building a ever higher score with new routes and actions unlocking with each area your ball hits. Its definitely something I enjoy from time to time, especially in a competitive setting. Its kinda like why people like watching colored blocks fall to make rows for points.

@eltomo When asked about bringing back the "Children" mechanic from Fates and Awakening, the developer said that there may be a surprise in the near future. So either we will be getting more of the children characters in a banner, or we will be getting a feature that lets us get kid characters if we own certain characters for it.

Re: Take A Look At The Awesome NES Splatoon We Never Got To Play

patbacknitro

I always said Splatoon would make an amazing platformer. Using your Ink to climb walls, Platform onto certain things, grind on rails, expand the sponges, and so on. A Splatoon platformer would be amazing, and if Nintendo were to make a Single Player only Splatoon, I would want it to be a 2D Shoot Em Up/Platformer. There's so many possibilities.

@MarioPhD Why does a Cartoon plumber need villains That try causing the end of existence thanks to a book of prophecy, a giant turtle that causes a black hole that could destroy the universe, An evil cult trying to summon a demon upon the world, An alien race trying to take over the world thanks to the power of time travel, and the list goes on.

Re: Switch Could Get Kingdom Hearts III, But Only After Announced Versions Are Released

@JTMnM Funny how instead of trying to counter my argument you instead try insulting me with such petty things like grammatical errors. Well unlike you I will actually counter your argument. 1. You are against the Nintendo switch port. That's it and that's all. And so if you are against it, that means that you don't want others to have it as you are entirely against it, as you said in your argument. To further prove this point you even claimed KH fans want another side game for the Switch instead of the port of the major game, which looking at the response for the 2 DS side games, I don't know what gave you that crazy logic. 2. My use of grammar has nothing to do with the argument itself, instead you choose to point out my 1 to 2 grammar mistakes just to try and make yourself look more skilled in comparison, when really the fact you pointed out such tiny mistakes just shows how much you care at the fact that you have nothing to argue against. And 3. KH3 was built for the PS4 and it's getting a Xbone release, a hardware it wasn't built for as Xbone is just a port. So if you're not so against that, then your own counter argument is well......Stupid xD

Re: Switch Could Get Kingdom Hearts III, But Only After Announced Versions Are Released

@JTMnM You need to read more carefully apparently as I said, "You're against having a port on the Nintendo Switch" That and its implications afterward are based on what you said in your statement. But yes your right, cause I mean look at the reception of Recoded and 358/2 days. Kingdom hearts fans would just love new versions of those instead of a Nintendo port of Kingdom hearts 3. But I find your logic questionable. Square Enix put out a ton of versions of KH 1 and 2 and people bought all of those versions. Yet when it comes to KH3 you don't think any KH fans would be happy to get multiple versions for different consoles? Having 1 to play at home on the PS4 and 1 to play on the go?

Re: Switch Could Get Kingdom Hearts III, But Only After Announced Versions Are Released

@JTMnM So your against having a port of Kingdom hearts 3 on the Nintendo Switch for others who either don't have a PS4 or Xbone, or just those who want a hand held version. But another Recoded or 358/2 Days on the Switch sounds just soooo much more amazing than a KH3 port? But people forget Square Enix is usually really good with ports of their games, they can work with limited space to amazing degrees. So it may not be as great as the PS4 version, but its not gonna be watered down to unplayability. If anything the change would be slight.

Re: Feature: Castlevania Show Producer Adi Shankar On Respecting Fandom And Future Seasons

patbacknitro

People want to complain about Mature content when Historically the themes Castlevania covers are insanely mature. Does anyone even know the real Count Dracula? The one that started the legend? The one that killed soldiers and hung them on signposts to scare away other soldiers from his land?(Seriously the guy was crazy as hell). If you come to Castlevania expecting Hotel Transylvania then you should not be into the series. Honestly, the Netflix series is amazing for the source material, and season 2 is really Gonna Kick A**.
