Re: Talking Point: Super Mario Maker's Update Continues Nintendo's Focus on Major Games as Services

simonthomas6

I like the update for MM however it was unfortunate to see a maximum limit of only 1 checkpoint per level, would have liked to see 2 but oh well I guess. Really would like to see connecting warp pipes for more puzzles such as pipe mazes. Custom sub areas are a nice touch. Still need stage themes for each set of the individual MArio games ( AndreGX-WHERES MY ANGRY SUN NINTNEDO??) ( and yes GX is my favorite youtube channel to for looking at reviews, live streams etc) ( sorry NL) ......( NL Admins- THIS GUY NAMED SIMON IS MENTIONING A DIFFERENT REVIEWER GROUP BAN HIM NOOOWWWWWWW) (IM obviously just making a joke but yes....GX is my fav)

Re: Make Your New Nintendo 3DS Cuter With Yoshi Cover Plates

simonthomas6

@kamifox1 yea I know and to be honest I was expecting some of them to be higher than they actually are on ebay . But yeah im guessing getting good faceplates in the U.K (at a retailer) are difficult to get such as certain amiibos are these days....unless Nintendo U.K was smart and actually released good amounts each release.

Re: Nintendo's Latest Hanafuda Deck Is Perhaps Its Most Eye-Catching Yet

simonthomas6

I hope NOA does add this for Americas catalog. My worry for the new rewards program (for america) is that NOA didn't bother to take notes from club Nintendo when their rewards got more bad over the years in Elite status and the catalog itself . 2009- mario hat....which was amazing. 2010- mario and friends statue,best year for Americas elite status. 2011- pin batch set which I liked but others felt it was a massive downgrade. 2012......3 pieces of paper(posters) or a deck of cards...now I will say the deck of cards looked cool but...its cards. 2013- Majoras mask soundtrack- really good in my opinion but other countries HAD cds being offered on their CN catalog. 2014- ......a download code for a game.....really NOA that's pathetic.
But yeahhh.... NOA I HOPE you took notes from what other countries had to offer... please don't disappoint your fans.

Re: Nintendo Is Making Female Characters Cover Up For The Western Version Of Xenoblade Chronicles X

simonthomas6

eh I could care less whether they where kept the female characters the same for the U.S release or not include the type of cloths they wear I honestly don't care. ....now the game looks amazing on its own ...(oh boy..) but why call it Xenoblade chronicles when it has absolutely nothing to do with shulk, monado, OR the bionis and mechonis!?? . In the original xenoblade chronicles it stated "In the beging of time there was nothing more than an endless sea and the titan 2 gods called the bionis and the mechonis" (The game tells a different variation of that I klnow) Now lets see what Xenoblade chronicles X says " the earth (WHAT EARTH?????) was idestroyed by an alien war" (aliens???? um ok then... this certainly was stated in the original game " lol not") and again I forget what the trailer specifically says about that alien stuff ( alien , war etc..). Now this game (in my opinion) shouldn't have been called Xenoblade chronicles "x". it isn't the same atmosphere as the original and instead its a modern type atmosphere. And yes IK it isn't stating that its a sequels but its Ironic how they even can call this game Xenoblade chronicles with an X slapped on at the end of the name ( no monado, shulk , bionis , mechonis and you can name a TON more things than that) .and yes I will buy the game but these are just my opinions on the game from the videos i have seen.

Re: Details Emerge on How Nintendo Accounts Will Work

simonthomas6

I personally think that for the sake of each country getting fairly good physical rewards , I personally think that all Nintendo governments (NOA NOE NOJ ETC) should come together to make ONE and put the rewards on ONE website therefore everyone gets the rewards they like from different Nintendo governments rather than just make one website for each individual country like what club Nintendo did . Now the chances of this happening is very slim but it would be awesome to see.

Re: Awesome Super Mario Maker New Nintendo 3DS Cover Plates Heading to Europe

simonthomas6

@AlexSora89 hey its fine and i also wish Nintendo as a whole company would understand to ditribute everything the sane for each country . Japan for instance... Nintendos jappense side of the company distributes more things in japan more than NOE and NOA etc.. NOAJ needs to relize just because they're company is a jappenese company doesnt mean other countries should be getting less.

Re: The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes Misses Out on UK Top 10

simonthomas6

In my opinion I think Triforce heroes is a great game , although the story isn't great to be honest. I do find myself to use the single player for getting the items that I needed from certain levels. coliseum mode (or battle mode whatever) is also a fun game to compete for 1st place to get items on 3 different ranks of rarity. The multiplayer is a hit or miss when it comes to Triforce heroes and having a good internet connection is highly recommended for a better online experience. Though when I find someone with horrible internet I basically drop out and find someone else. Communication can be a problem with no messaging system or voice chat instead you get different impressions that you can use to communicate witch still can help out if your teammates know what your trying to point them out to. overall id give it an 8/10 . Its a really fun experience with the different outfits you can get to help you out with coliseum mode or to continue with different levels.

Re: Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival Won't Have Online Play

simonthomas6

.....pass on this one for sure and one more thing ....wait ill be back "goes to a random gamestop and trades in every AC game (I own) for in-store credit and pre-orders Xenoblade chronicles X (and no im not the hugest fan of gamestop tbh)" There we go! Now im really feeling (it) l about how the series of animal crossing turned into!

Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes (3DS)

simonthomas6

For people who think this Zelda game is still not interesting and only take this 1 review for your decision to buy this game I would consider taking a look at other reviewers too. And im not just telling this to the lower scored reviews I would say this for higher scores on this game too.

Re: It's Official, Hideo Kojima Has Parted Ways With Konami

simonthomas6

Thats a good decision for kojima and also wish him the best of luck. I hope one day Konami just burns to a crisp and when that happens that so-called ceo at konami will be crying for money that the company will just sell there IPs to company's will make proper usage of ALL there IPs .

Re: Miyamoto and Tezuka Discuss the Difficulties of Balancing Games for Players of All Skill Levels

simonthomas6

@heyzeus002 exactly everyone should be able to state there opinion. and @Mijzelffan i honestly don't understand still why you even bothered to say to me that " I have no doubt the reason you think it's unbalanced is because you're as bad at mario kart 8 as you are at the english language" i mean to be honest you didn't even offend me . and yes i am actually good at mario kart 8 and the rest of the series as I already stated.

Re: Miyamoto and Tezuka Discuss the Difficulties of Balancing Games for Players of All Skill Levels

simonthomas6

i can definitely see why it would be hard to make a Mario game that is balanced difficulty for all. making a Easy, Medium, Hard game option would be even more work also for 3d games. I personally would love to see Mario sunshine 2 but then you would think "would they make it the same difficulty? or would they make it easier than the original? " but that's my thoughts on it.

@Mijzelffan Mario kart 8 has a terrible item balance therefore its almost luck based and yes I played it and think mario kart wii and mk 7 are more balenced games , i mean come on having coins in item boxes is the worst idea ever. when your in first you always seem to get coins more often then shells. If mario kart wii had online still id be playing mario kart 7 and wii more than mk8. I cant stand that item balence in mk8 at all.

Re: Review: Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer (3DS)

simonthomas6

so far ive seen a lot of other reviews other than just this one. others such as gamexplain say this game gets very repetitive after a good while of constantly creating just houses and with that making the type of themed houses you want to create on the inside. and I can definitely see what they mean by that, personally this AC just isnt for me.

Re: Climate "Not Healthy" For Dedicated Handheld Games Consoles, Says Sony's Shuhei Yoshida

simonthomas6

whelp for one thing . Nintendo actually fully supplied the 3ds with tons of 1st party exclusives. sure the psvita was much powerful than the 3ds but the psvita wasnt as friendly to the consumers. and didnt have much as Nintendo offered with its 3ds tittles , and lets talk about memory cards , what i mean about sony not being as consumer friendly is. . psvita: used its own save data cards which were overpriced. 3ds: used normal sd cards (or new 3ds xl with micro sd cards).

Re: Nintendo is Now 126 Years Old

simonthomas6

from an era when they made playing cards then to an era when they went to making video games and reviving the gaming industry with the NES after the video game crash of 1983. happy 126th birthday Nintendo!

Re: Konami Denies That It Is Walking Away From AAA Game Development

simonthomas6

oh.....konami konami konami how about you just sell your ips like metal gear solid and your other ips that you refused to make new games of . yes I know that the new metal gear is selling amazing right now but the big question is since kojima left konami is what is next for them? i mean it would kinda be better for them to move on and sell there ips . you people read the stories on how konami treats there development teams and workers. konami one of these days i hope you sell your ips to companys that will make better use of your other ips and metal gear .

Re: Guide: Use these Splatoon Tricks & Advanced Techniques to Improve your Inking

simonthomas6

some things i learned in splat zones
1: camping to defend ur zone when you captured it is pretty necessary ( yes I know some people hate campers but its helpful in this game mode)
2: try not to go directly for an enemy head on .
3: try to have a strategy for each map.
4: for level 10 people If your not familiar with the maps in zones I recommend you try to get better at turf wars before you take on splat zones.
But unfortunately if you get not very good teammates splat zones can be REALLY stressful especially when you want more of the higher A or B rank.
