Re: Feature: Can't Buy Super Mario 64 On Switch Anymore? Psst! The N64 Original Is Better

Not sure how they justify these prices really. Think it’s actually pretty disgraceful. Ever drives aren’t much better either it seems that people will just try to take advantage of us retro gamers and our wallets. I got an ed64 plus for about £50, that will do me, if these cables were a similar price I’m sure they would sell a lot more of them and make more money in the long run.

Re: Germany Is Considering An 18+ Rating On Video Games With Loot Boxes

Here is an idea, why don’t parents I don’t know ‘parent?’.

We love to ban things don’t we but is there any chance a parent could just have some control?!

I don’t like loot boxes but where does it end?

Ban Pokémon card packs because you are trying to get cards and don’t know what’s inside?

Ban those eggs that have random toys in?

I think the issue is these people who work on here aren’t journalists really. They are more bloggers or marketers. A lot of it is just copy and pasted from elsewhere. It’s nice to bring it all together on one site but Alex and co aren’t exactly out on the street getting the ‘next big Nintendo scoop’. Not a knock on them but I would be amazed if they all had journalistic credentials studying the profession to a high level. They are good at their job but the word journalist doesn’t sit right to me at least.

Re: F-Zero GX Producer Toshihiro Nagoshi "Wouldn't Mind" Working On Nintendo's Futuristic Racing Series Again

F Zero is a rock hard at the higher levels. Even the N64 version. Great game series something about flying around at that speed that is so satisfying. I really don’t get why Nintendo ignore the franchise, like we can’t have more than one racer to enjoy from them, I don’t think it would stop anyone buying Mario Kart.

At least release some DLC tracks for Mario Kart if you are really not going to revive F Zero.

Fast racing RMX is great but I don’t think it’s the same thing really.

Re: Nintendo Announces Super Nintendo World Direct Livestream

quinnyboy58

Seems rather ill timed given the circumstances, why not wait until world has gone back to close to normal. Last thing I want to think about right now is how I can’t go to a place like this! Also it’s been such a bad year for Nintendo first party games why call this a direct? Just rubbing salt into the wounds?

Re: Random: Banjo-Kazooie Creator Reacts To Duo's Bittersweet Cameo In The Latest Smash Trailer

@backup368 yeah we are actually! By the way how many games have been sold that you ever made? 7 million is hardly something to be ashamed about, for only 2 proper games, on a low selling console btw. Banjo Kazooie was the greatest 3D platformer of all time in many peoples eyes when it came out and still in many peoples top 5 today. Do us a favour, Go back to playing COD and FIFA lol and leave us alone!

Re: NPD: Switch Sold More Units In Q3 2020 Than Any Platform Since The DS In Q3 2009 (US)

@GrandScribe disagree with this, the fact it is handheld at a decent enough spec is what has driven sales. infact there is no reason for Nintendo to move to Switch 2 anytime soon as sales are increasing later in the consoles life. Whoever came up with the idea has done incredibly well, it wasn't long ago I was watching Youtube videos announcing the death of Nintendo as a hardware manufacturer and saying they should just release games on PS4!

Re: Immortals Fenyx Rising Switch eShop File Size Revealed

@Astro76 don’t really see why any fan of gaming wouldn’t be a Nintendo fan since they have released many all time classics. The same way I am a fan of all good games developers. This is clearly inspired by BOTW but it doesn’t matter, it is different enough and looks fantastic.
