Gotta make sure all those homebrew loopholes are patched up, eh Nintendo?

Why bother polishing a product if the fans have mentally conditioned themselves to always buy it anyway, regardless of quality?

Once again, the unofficial alternatives are FAR better. ESPECIALLY if you still have a 3DS.

Frequent dips into the 10-15 range?

Bring on the chill factor. I'm ready!

Why put drift-prone analog sticks in the joycons, when much smaller companies are capable of putting hall effect sticks in their controllers, which cost a fraction of the price.

Once everything is safely transfered over, and it's disconnected from my main account. It'll be hacking time of course!

I'm indifferent. The only thing I really care about, is that we can finally move past seeing ten different leaks and rumors about it EVERY SINGLE DAY. I'll really only bother to buy one, once my current Switch dies of old age.

Y'know, We can see you over there. We KNOW what you're doing, and it's WRONG. STOP HAVING FUN. RIGHT NOW.

It's almost like Nintendo wants everything about this to be leaked, so they can observe how it is leaked, and by whom.

Meh, just play Rayman Redemption. I guarantee it's the best "remake" of the original Rayman you'll ever play!

This isn't one of those games where the lovable canine companion gets killed at some point, is it?

I don't get why Woolie's advice regarding fan projects is so difficult to follow. I hope we'll get to play the finished game at some point in the very distant future, but It now has a target on its back. It'll be dead by the end of the week.

The red and blue copyright demon has once again taken the scorched earth approach...
When all is said and done, he will make sure there is NOTHING STANDING.

While the rest of the industry uses AI to replace jobs, get rid of creators, and downsize to save money, Nintendo has taken the opposite approach. They've found it much more effective to utilize AI to assist in locating content to dmca, and to issue the take-down notices.

I wish it was that Nintendo is finally being humbled a little bit, for attacking fan projects and the emulation scene. It's more likely just low numbers due to people waiting for switch 2.

That depends on how Nintendo defines "backwards compatible".
Is it just for digital games, or physical games too?

Protip: the first Starfy has a full fan translation patch, so while the others still remain untranslated, you can certainly enjoy the first one.

Nintendo finds AI technology to be far more useful in the process of locating assets and people to DMCA and sue.

@Serpenterror Thanks for the info. I guess this is one situation where I'll be avoiding the PC version...

Can anybody with the Switch version confirm whether or not you are forced to login with a Ubisoft account?

Attacking the emulation community, and giving us a much worse substitute, is the most Nintendo thing ever.

Oi... You there, with the mods. No fun. I SAID NO FUN. FUN IS NOT ALLOWED!!!!

DRM free, zero online requirements, and complete freedom to make backups. So basically GOG.

Well that just made me realize I haven't updated Yuzu in a while. Guess I'd better download all the installation files for the current version as well. Thanks for the heads up!

Well jeepers... it's almost like widely covering this project painted a big red target on it, along with the words "I love being DMCA'd". Maybe we could avoid doing that in the future?
I doubt we've seen the last of it though.

Oh No... This should have stayed under wraps. Now it's at risk of being axed...

FFS, WHY!? If you're just gonna release it digitally, then do so. These empty plastic cases are completely stupid and a waste.

So, what... Are they gonna give it an actual ending this time?

Why, hack it of course! Honestly, I can't see any other alternative. It's hacking time!

How about making it work offline instead of requiring a constant connection?

Is NL trying to condition us into thinking no backwards compatibility is okay?

Well this sucks... The game keeps nagging you to sign in with your Epic Games account, and the framerate is all over the place. Don't waste your time until this gets some major updates.

These are so stupid. Just extra plastic waste...

That's okay, I need to stop wasting my money anyway. I've got more than enough backlog to keep me busy...

THIS is how older games SHOULD be ported.

@Astral-Grain
Blindly supporting Rockstar and Nintendo for allowing lazy ports just sends the message that it's okay. Having self respect and voting with your wallet is far better... For everyone

Thanks to DF, I realized how much nicer the game could look, and once again went with the legally dubious option. Thank again DF!

Not only that, It sickens me to learn that some of the game's original (already pretty tame) humor was scrubbed out.

It's always nice when Nintendo shows us how much they care.

De-compilation projects + MODS + emulation FTW.

Wow... I'm glad I finished hacking all my 3DSs. I finished the last one a few days ago. Now it's too late for Nintendo to "stabilize" me.

Nintendo's team of Goombas is about to make sure this poor sap is sleeping with the Cheep-Cheeps.

I can already play all the older games just fine using emulators, and there are romhacks which make them a gazillion times better. I'd much rather see BoF6, than another remake/port.

But... the framerate is a joke.

While Amazon originally gave me an End-of-March/Beginning-of-April shipping date, they recently changed it to March 5th. It could happen to you. Just be patient. Don't be one of those suckers that also buys the digital version.

The slow drip-feed approach to releasing these games is such a joke. Especially since it's been possible to play the entire libraries on even the lowest-end Android phone for well over a decade. It's also worth mentioning that certain GB games (such as SML2) have romhacks, allowing you to play in FULL COLOR.

Uh Nintendo... I think you missed the other two Prime games.
Nintendo?

@Da-Fondler I see you obviously didn't pick up on the sarcasm...
