I actually said this yesterday to my wife “I can totally see the Splatoon kids in a sequel or dlc for this”.

I think it looks more like Megaman’s. But if you want to get pedantic, I think Astroboy might’ve done it first

You leave edgelord Sonic alone!

I consider myself somewhat of an amateur videogame historian, and I’ll admit I had to look up the release dates to double-check.

Megaman? Try Metroid first.

There’s the right way to make mascots to use guns, and then there’s the absolute wrong way.....

Koopa shells and hammers don’t kill people. I kill people!

They count as weapons, but not guns.

“Hell-a in-a da shell-a! Yahoo!”

so i guess a Hammer or a Koopa shell doesn’t count as a weapon?

Zelda: BOTW, MK8DX, Pokken DX (well, this batch is Nintendo exclusive at least), ARMS, Splatoon 2, Super Mario Odyssey, Mario X Rabbids, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Fire Emblem Warriors, etc.

I’m a simple man. All I ask out of my games is at minimum 720p resolution and a(mostly) stable 30fps(hey I endured the shitty framerate of the PS3 versions BioShock Infinite and Mass Effect 3, which was far below that), and I am happy. I’m willing to accept any sacrifices needed to get the game within those…

I will.

Which is almost wholly the third party market’s fault at this point. Nintendo has made development much easier by finally going with a modern chipset, sales are clearly there in terms of hardware, early developers have gotten great sales due to capitalizing on the hype, and there are a lot of people who are willing…

Yeah. You’d almost think the console was designed in Japan by Japanese people. It’s a very good fit for their households.

Most people in Japan buy it for Splatoon 2, not for Zelda. Splatoon 2 is so successful that it might soon even overtake the PS4's Dragon Quest 11 sales. At that point it becomes beyond ridiculous to say that the Switch only has Zelda, no matter how much your fanboy heart seemingly wants it to be true.

>Red Dead Redemption 2

The power of Splatoon, man. Japan freaking looooooooves Splatoon. Honestly out of all the major first party titles the Switch has had so far Splatoon 2 has been the biggest one for Japan.

Comparing them is not pointless. As a matter of fact, it’s the exact opposite of pointless. It’s the living proof that, if you want to sell consoles, you need software.

no surprise here since the switch is mobile and all.
