I don’t think it has to be or that he is implying that it is. Dude is just mad at their poor service and as a result doesn’t want to support them. This is no different than someone getting bad service at a restaurant and never wanting to go back there again. 

“Please do not do that.” - Miyamoto reading this article

This is a nothingburger. He made a render that is almost identical to the one used for the Super Mario Run icon. He put work into it sure, but it’s not like he created some new concept that was ripped off. And I doubt that render was built from scratch.

Sammmmeee. That was fascinating to hear. It was also adorable to have him specify the frame counts for a couple of attacks and then catch himself, saying “oh wait, I shouldn’t say stuff like this, I’m making a party game” and the crew laughing. The man’s a treasure.

Don’t doubt Sakurai. This guy knows fanservice.

Making someone pay extra for an early release is shitty.

I mean. Yes. The held double standard is that you insult women by calling them sluts (you had sex! BE ASHAMED!) and you insult men by calling them virgins (you haven’t had sex! BE ASHAMED!), both of which are stupid as hell.

I’m guessing the reason they’re banning it is so that people who donate large amounts to women streamers can’t be shamed into not donating. It’s good for the Twitch bottom line.

there’s an old saying when it comes to Nintendo: “Nintendo, making the hard parts look easy and the easy parts look hard.” they will completely reinvent their core franchises perfectly on the first try (Breath of the wild, Mario Odyssey, Metroid Prime, etc.) but ask them to do basic network play, voice chat, or…

I mean I think it’s a weird thing, but I bought it, and I don’t see myself being outraged for future generations that can’t buy it. Some things are limited time in life. It’s the decision they made, it’s weird, but just buy it now if you want it. If you have that big a problem with it then don’t buy it. On the…

CDPR just makes one disingenuous statement after another

Before you ask... Rainbow Dash from MY LITTLE PONY

Also Animal Crossing where Nintendo delayed it because they don’t do crunch. They treat it like a 9 to 5 job as should be the standard.

If you were/are excited for it because of the source where it came from (cyberpunk pen&paper rpg, and accompanying lore) then you won’t be disappointed.
If you want it to be another Witcher 3, you WILL be disappointed.

It is a different game, not more of the same in a different setting.

Why include BOTW in that list? It’s a game that very famously has almost no icons on the map unless you add them yourself by charting out the terrain.

The “mixed feelings” in the title come off more as overwhelmed ambivalence and fatigue in the article, than like you truly have had a mixed experience with good and bad game elements. Again and again and again you bring up things that seem subjectively good, and then qualify that by saying they left you cold,…

Not many. Glancing through my library I see Trauma Center, Zack and Wiki, House of the Dead (2/3/Overkill), Mad World, and Dead Space Extraction.

But I also don’t see it as a huge problem because they’re accompanied by at least 20 first-party games. Mario Galaxy 1 & 2. Punch Out. Sin and Punishment. Xenoblade...

Seeing as I got my series x today from Taco bell - I’m siding with Xbox for now lol

While I absolutely condemn her statements, I do not support cancel culture. Unless the statements are related to her job, it is disgusting to stalk her everywhere and demand she be fired in perpetuity. She is not some walking caricature. She is a human being with some very troublesome opinions, but those opinions are…

As someone who’s legitimately excited about a Biden presidency, the notion that having ‘a different old white man sitting behind the Resolute desk’ would somehow make the ‘worst people’ ‘go away’ is... a bit much to take in a PS5 review. And kind of creepy, honestly. I’m not saying there’s no reason to feel that way,…
