FFVIIR-4: The Golden Saucer.

If you want to compare it to TV this is like remaking Game of Thrones but they’re charging you whatever a yearly HBO subscription costs per episode and the entire first season is just those two guys who got killed by White Walkers in the intro of the first episode. Season two is going to be the murder of John Arryn.

I agree - there is no accessibility issue here - the original is available and totally playable on all modern platforms, plus a handful of old ones. I’m replaying it right now on PS4 to get all the trophies. I don’t need the remake to experience FFVII as it was 23 years ago. And I don’t think there’s any point in…

I would feel so much better about it if there was some sort of roadmap - like if they announced that it was going to be in 3 parts, with part 2 arriving by Christmas and part 3 this time next year, and whether the other parts were going to be sold as separate, full-price retail releases or DLC, perhaps with a season…

As in “if anything is 4x better looking, that is”. However you want to quantify it, Odyssey looks better than Black Flag.

Yeah, that got me too. All of Romero’s films are supposedly set during the same outbreak, following different groups of survivors. Night shows the beginning of the outbreak, starting with people going about an ordinary day with no idea of what’s about to happen; Dawn is set slightly later, showing the collapse of…

It’s amazing for emulation, probably the best one you can get. I’ve got one hooked up to my living room TV, along with a PS4, Xbox One and Switch, and use it with an 8Bitdo Bluetooth SNES controller (for most games anyway) and it is wonderful.

That doesn't make sense because, by all accounts, everyone stopped watching The Simpsons years ago and yet it's still being made.

What does that say about people who don’t watch the show but feel the need to follow it and comment on in anyway?

each one of them having announced anything between 2 to 4 times, or about, more power than the previous generation. Thing is, what we get on screen, while better, is never in line with the same order of magnitude.

Yeah but there are no auto updates on 3DS and it’s painfully slow.

Oh wow, what a hot take. Never seen someone who didn’t like and didn’t watch the show comment like this before!

That’s what everyone’s saying. But then everyone is saying they want cloud saves as standard as well, so... Nintendo’s gonna Nintendo!

Yeah, that’s kind of the point though - you shouldn’t have to go outside of the ecosystem of the console itself to enable basic communication with other players, especially ones who are already on your friends list. Discord is welcome to be far superior to anything else on offer, but the Switch should at least have a…

I believe they require Xbox Live Gold on Xbox, so it’s a paid service there as well. Only Steam (and probably other PC clients) does it for free.

And the Wii U is technically capable of playing GameCube games from disc, but just doesn’t...

I sometimes wonder if Nintendo is not “with the times”, but rather weak servers?

No one said a game without cloud saves can’t be excellent. This article isn’t about how Animal Crossing is going to suck because it doesn’t have cloud save support. It’s about how, given that cloud saving is a standard feature on all other platforms, it’s odd that it isn’t standard with Nintendo.

Because every time they release a new update there is coverage about it like this, which reminds people that it exists and that it’s good now and that there might be a cool new feature they would like, and that must translate into a fresh burst of sales.

You just said yourself “The Juice amplifies emotions”. Now you’re saying it changes the way people act. Which is it? Changes or amplifies? Because it can’t amplify what isn’t there.
