NL calls this the best LABO Kit yet. Gives this one a score of 70, Though gives variety pack of a score of 80. NL, once again, you are inconsistent and make no sense. Your scoring system is a mess.
Cool. Hopefully this will shut up the "how dare Nintendo make us pay for leaf tickets for a free game" lemmings. People like to spend. Shut up and quit whining.
And why cant you simply edit the original article with the correct time? That is the beauty of the digital age. Leaving up outdated, incorrect times in original stories only ads more to the confusion sites like yours present. Just edit the original story! Jeeeees!
Why is this a big issue? Nintendo already told us: $20 a year. Free game a month. Ability to play online. Cloud saves. What is so confusing about this? smh
Great review day one buy. Steve, are all the levels from Wario Twisted in this? This hard to find game, with gyro control, is worth the purchase alone if all levels here.
@19Robb92 Alex should not the game is GOOD. As NL does. A 7 is NOT good. It's average to mediocre, especially as NL is using Metacritic. Alex contradicts his own score. His system is distorted.
Alex MANUALLY enters into Metacrtic. Alex and NL do not have to be part of Metacritic. So, it's Alex/NL using MC, not the other way around.
@sikthvash No. Alex should not the game is GOOD. As NL does. A 7 is NOT good. It's average to mediocre, especially as NL is using Metacritic. Alex contradicts his own score. His system is distorted.
@AlexOlney Well you are contradicting yourself. NL uses Metacritic. A 70 and below is a mixed review. Average. Though your review sounds like it's better than average, your score certainly does not reflect it. You also say the game is GOOD. 70 is NOT good. People will see NL on MC and say, oh wow, he's mixed. He thinks the game is average. Anyone who uses MC can't have it both ways or you create confusion. http://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/captain-toad-treasure-tracker/critic-reviews?dist=neutral
This article is STUPID. Best Buy, Gamestop, Target, all have ample supply, in store, online. Just check. You will see. Stupid PR story that lemmings like Nintendo Life picking up on. Smh.
Worst e3 in years. Recycled smash. Been there done that Pokemon. Now big TEASES for 2019. No Metroid update. Sure I can see why the stock is dropping into the toilet.
And HERE come the deniers. Do you need an education? And emulator is designed to take ROMS of video games and play them for free. Stop trying to pretend it has another purpose that is bigger that persons stealing copywritten roms.
Though you will come here and call people names because it's no surprise the name callers and deniers are stealing roms themselve.
Sad the Nintendolife promotes piracy. I wonder if Golan, the PR firm for Nintendo, knows this? Ill drop them a line. They hate when sites promote anything that is or assists with Piracy. Please spare us the "using it for backup" garbage. You know your intent is to use an emulator for downloading free Nintendo roms off the internet. Really NL? Thought better of you.
See folks, Electrolite is doing what is called "painted into a corner" in where she has no logical explanation to her debate, lacks the skills for intellectual conversation, so, instead, she becomes a female version of Donald Trump and goes for the lame insults! Sad. Lonely. Cat woman.
"The Wii U version was only able to display at 720p, but it still looked good. This new version, however, boosts it up to a gorgeous full 1080p that fits the style and aesthetic so well we didn’t even notice. It’s a real testament to the art direction."
Everyone, you need to get over 720p vs 1080p. Its highly overrated. Stop being a sucker.
BTW, the review misses out on some important points: he CAN play the VS. mode solo, by pressing in the LEFT joystick, bringing on an AI robot. Also, the main open world game will soon open up to 30 min free play mode. And, the review does not point out the exercise this kit has. It shows a calorie burner and you can burn off 300 calories each session.
The reviewer talks of clutter? The variety pack has 4 to 5 cluttery toy cons, games that have little depth and appeal. The robot, at least you can hook it up on a wall or inside a closet. Packs nice in one piece vs 4-5 clutter pieces of variety.
6 out 10? Your review does not read like that. I love the Robot kit, 8 out of 10.
I love Kirby. But this is easily the weakest Kirby ever. No skill. Set your AI player sit back and the game plays for you. Button mash A on any character. And, the game is truly 6 hours, with maybe 2 more hours if you go for mind-numbingly easy 100%
@Anti-Matter I am taller. 6 foot 3 inches, USA. And heavier (that you photo
The strings are a perfect fit for me (though close to the end for me). That being said, easy to extend with a sturdy pair of shoe-laces by simply tying to the end. Though you would need to be 6 foot 5 and above to be concerned about that!

Re: Super Mario Party Website Suggests Game Will Only Include Four Boards To Play On
NL we are sure you have a review copy. Why would you say the website says only 4 boards when we know you already knew this?
Also, when does that review embargo lift? You critics should post review embargo dates. People love that but you never reveal it.

A ROBUST 76 metascore and over 7 user score is far from LAZY. I love Mario Aces. Worth the price alone just for the online tennis portion of it.
