@Owl1 THIS! What a bad marketing strategy. Lego sucks nowadays. Those “managers” should start to think of the consumers again. Otherwise this flagship of (not so much) “creativity” will go down fast. It sucks.
Well. I don’t know. I love installations if they last. This sounds like a waste of resources. And it’s nearly always “the biggest”. A tad boring. Love DK arcade, though.
@Mrsaturn: you are right. I will miss it too. When I was younger I the years between 1998 and 2002 this was always so awesome. It’s a shame these events die. Someone should come up with an online one. I can’t be bothered with every big publisher cooking their own soup. It used to be a family reunion feast. I’ll miss it.
This author just takes the games code and publishes it. For 45 to 300! Something? What an arsehole. The idea is good. It’s just extraordinary loads of dollars. What goes wrong that this gets support by games and / or Nintendo Life? It’s a total rip-off
To be honest: I couldn't be bothered anymore. I am 39. I always collected physical. If you don't wait for a couple of months and if the publisher does not bring out a goty edition on card, it doesn't really mean anything. They want us to go all digital. Day one patches show it. So let's do it. They will regret it some day. I don't illegally download software anymore. Since 1996. But somehow they want it back.
I hope everybody will pay for the games. But saving the patches as a necessity seems a bit odd...
@Zeldafan79 "Wow how many times have I seen the phrase poor switch port? Don't know if I should blame lazy developers or the hardware. I Know switch is capable of amazing seemingly impossible visuals but constantly seeing poor switch port is getting old."
Always blame the developer. If can't make it run to satisfaction, don't throw it on the market. It's consumer unfriendly and bad for the brand. Plus it demotivates the whole team.
@Anti-Matter I can totally understand you. I really tried to love them. But somehow it never really "clicked". I feel a bit sorry for myself about that.
Why didn't NAPS do some testing of the game mechanics on real players in all the 15 years? There must be a strong personality in the seat of game design who does not allow a second opinion next to his. I mean 15 years.... all that should be worked on is game design in the first place. Graphics are always second.
@BloodNinja "It's not about style, it's about being honest with oneself. Get stronger legs, learn better balance, strengthen your core." Now THAT'S a Ninja comment! I think you stole it from Master Splinter....
@Goat_FromBOTW yeah, it puzzles me as well. Especially Nessisonett getting pulled is odd. He is a very frequent poster and normally I give his comments a like. Strange...

Re: Best Indiana Jones Games On Nintendo Platforms
I‘m missing the Indy Jones Pinball table from Pinball FX3 (Switch) in this list. Would be my number two behind Fate Of Atlantis

Re: Poll: What's The Best Mario Kart Game?
@Rykdrew I played 64 the most, though 🙈
Re: Poll: What's The Best Mario Kart Game?
For me it’s hard to compare them. Placed a lot of 10s. I’m 40 years old. Nearly all of them where great in their time.
Re: Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration Features Over 90 Titles, Including Jaguar And Lynx Games

Re: "50 Years Of Text Games" Celebrates Interactive Fiction, Fully Funded On Kickstarter
To make myself clear: I love text adventures to bits. That is why I’m so annoyed by the price. Sorry. Maybe I’m a bit too engaged.

@DestructoDisk this. It’s a total knock-off. Ridiculous.
Re: "50 Years Of Text Games" Celebrates Interactive Fiction, Fully Funded On Kickstarter
I would really love this. But 45-85 dollars?? Why that much? It’s a shame.

Re: Poll: Do You Call Handhelds Like Game Boy And Nintendo DS 'Consoles'?
@nocdaes
I think of a console as anything that plays a significant amount of games as its primary function.
This! My five year old daughter fits this definition and I'm happy to go with it! Thumps up

Answer is no: the iconic NES western toaster is the best. It reminds me of my mum.
