The Wii U already has a crapton of N64 games available. Nintendo just needs to quit dilly-dallying and release ALL previously released VC games. Then they can trickle more all the want, but they need to do that first. That way, when they start releasing GameCube games on the VC, people will be pumped and already have…

I never said I was expecting it. I’m just telling them to do it! haha

Truly, the two things Nintendo can do to make the Switch launch perfect is just say this;

Switch pre-orders on online sites sold out in minutes. I couldn’t even add one to my cart right when they opened the Switch stuff on the site, they disappeared so quickly.

That’s crazy! But also super-cool. It’s fun to hear games I thought only would sell in Japan are actually selling outside the country too. You always hear how “this game” and “that game” never get localized, so I always assumed all the Musou games, especially, would never leave Japan.

Oh, wow! Thanks for telling me that. I live in Japan, so I wasn’t aware of the popularity of Tecmo Koei’s games outside the country. It does seem like a game that is very particular to a small Japanese crowd, but there I go assuming again. haha

They didn’t go into so much detail during the event (Well, neither did these videos, but still). It’s still Nintendo giving us a little more each day. Doesn’t matter how small, medium, or big the news might be. We still don’t know anything about how the Virtual Console or the online system is going to work either, so…

Believe me, this is the #1 reason I’m buying a Switch. I live in Japan, but I travel often for work. So many times when I’m in the States or Canada or somewhere and see a 3DS or Wii U game I want for cheap, I remember I can’t play it on either of my consoles. Ugh.

It’s also unlikely to release outside Japan, but like you said, it’s for a niche market. All of those in the niche market who were not attracted to the Switch prior to this reveal will be pre-ordering tomorrow. haha.

Not at all. Nintendo is the king of what I call “The Cartman Method”, where they never blow their load all at once. They only give a little bit at a time so you want to know more. They only release so many at one time, so you feel like you need to be next in line.

I know this isn’t for everyone, but the region-free aspect of the Switch AND that last statement of, “The user will access the Nintendo eShop that corresponds to the country identified in their Nintendo Account. (Up to eight user accounts can be created on a single Nintendo Switch system.)“, really makes it sound…

I just platinumed this game recently. Boy was it a blast! The Challenge, especially, was a beast at first, but like most of the game, once you keep pushing yourself, your mind just becomes more and more familiar with the patterns and you begin to “get it”.

I don’t even know you, and if I ever heard someone assaulted you, I would personally beat the living shit out of them and go to trial (and possibly jail) with a smile on my face.

The N64 controller was revolutionary for its time, for sure, but in retrospect, it’s not a very good controller. The joystick, in particular is super-loose, which makes platforming quite different, especially when there are tight jumps. Some times in Mario 64, you need to do precise turn jumps, and that joystick would…

Poo has been training for this for months! Super Dram World is an awful but beautiful mess. haha

She’s my spirit animal, whether Nintendo cares or not!

You can beat Super Mario World in under 10 minutes if you are even a decent player. It’s really not hard. haha. Sure, clearing all the levels can be a challenge, but Nintendo definitely allowed for it to be a pretty easy cruise to the end.

Super Princess Peach was definitely sexist in an odd way, but it was hard to ignore that the game was really good. haha. It was easy, but aren’t all Mario games pretty easy (Aside from Super Mario Bros 2 (AKA The Lost Levels))?

Don’t doubt, Nintendo. They are the same company that gave Peach her own game (Super Princess Peach) where she was donned to save Mario and Luigi. Nintendo is also the company that started a trend of strong women in the gaming world by introducing that the fast, strong, and courageous space bounty hunter was a woman…

Did you really expect that at this stage in the game? Nintendo is a company, and companies in dire positions need to make tough decisions. The Wii U was a bust, which is unfortunate (I personally love the console), but circumstance and the market hurt Nintendo’s recent console for sure.
