It wouldn't surprise me at this point that because of these leaks that some of the planned titles either. A. Change significantly to what they were going to be or B. Canceled altogether.
Well square enix then I'll just buy the switch 1 version instead. It's a shame really but this is the same company that ported over ( I won't say remade) a 3ds game on a key card so of course they'll take the cheapest route possible.
Seems like everyone is having a pleasant experience with pre orders so far. As for myself I got mine delivered by Wal mart this morning and it came with a free can of Pringles and a coke.
How about Midbus he only shows in BIS and it's remake or maybe snailicorn. ( the horned snail enemy in the 1st nsmb) my last pick would be Raphael the raven from yoshi's island.
This is 2k did we really expect any different? Nintendo basically made the game key cards to combat stuff like this. But leave it to companies like EA and 2K to take the worst possible route.
Well already pre-ordered along time ago from my local wal-mart. Didn't think I would be able to get one and mario kart world that easy so the email invite was kinda like a contingency plan for me.
NA hands down! It I get what the japanese cover was trying to accomplish but the American/ Europe cover is much better it gives a better feel what the game is like the cool action pose helps too.
I guess after some surprisingly consumer friendly releases from one (in big quotation marks) of its oldest series I guess EA thought people would get the wrong idea. And then proceed with a mass firing to remind people how abhorrent they are.
I'm thinking maybe they could do a remake of mario sunshine in 4k. And I'm not talking about an enhanced port! Fix the physics, make the blue coin shines actual missions and maybe add a hard mode for those of us who already played the game 100s of times.
The American/European cover better shows off what the game is about without saying too much. The majority of the pikmin fleeing, the blue pikmin attacking the offending bulborb, all While olimar the games protagonist just watches.
I think nintendo life will be fine. This app is just for news regarding their games,systems,etc. With probably direct links to the official site. Meanwhile ni tendolife covers more then just nintendo games and systems but also interesting opinion pieces and the like so I'll still visit even after downloading the app.
You know despite playing stadium 1 and 2 as kid for years I legitimately didn't know that. Though to be fair how many of us thought to teach venusaur, Pikachu, Nidoking, etc. Mimic?
Can I just add that while I am not defending gamefreak for all they did wrong. At the same time I would like to remind people that this is from a company that for the better half of 30 years made games for nintendo's handhelds. So comparatively their console experience is still pretty recent.
Wait keji inafune was involved!? Yeah he was the guy who took credit for ( did not create) megaman. But also infamously made mighty no 9 all while this game had horrible internal reviews. I feel an ill wind blowing...
As a fan of pokemon really both boxarts are iconic. the north American boxart however you can cleary identify as the card back for the english version of the cards. What's more is the tantalizing promise of a free card ( a promo meowth) with a purchase of the game.
@X68000 I agree I was just unsure of the developer was all. I just played super soccer this morning and well.... If you didn't grow up with it then it's not great. All I'm going to say.
This is unfortunate. Though I am curious is super tennis made by the same developer? And if so why just super soccer. P.S just looked it up and yeah different developer
Um... This might have more to do with spike chunsofts parent company then nintendo. I say this because after some light research. It turns out that Sony became kadakawas largest share holder as of last January. So it most likely is a licensing thing.
Honestly this might be okay. It's obvious that they will more than likely build the roster of available pokemon as time goes on. I would also like to point out from the trailer we saw terastilzation and mega evolution so on release it will likely only be compatible with legends ZA and scarlet and violet on release
Finally seeing gameplay of legends Z-A was definitely what I 2as looking forward to the most. But man that pokemon champions announcement was a welcome if not pleasant suprise.
Even with a personal bias for the US version. The Japanese version is better showing off all the main characters plus andross, with the added bonus of looking like a movie poster.
For starters a track creation tool would be nice. Next seeing as they are pulling from mario wonder maybe implement the wonder flower somehow. Finally an option not on the poll unlocakable ( as in from the game no micro transactions) skins for the racers.
Awesome for those who haven't played legends arceus it has a nice atmospheric soundtrack. Perfect for listening before bed or studying. We'll maybe except the boss fight themes.
Voted for NA/EU I was torn this one the NA version is the cover I remember seeing as a kid and still love it to this day. Meanwhile I like the simple aesthetics of the Japanese box art as well.
