To me, the success of the Nintendo Switch proves the Vita could’ve been successful too. People still want a high quality portable gaming experience, but things like proprietary and hilariously overpriced memory cards (that weren’t exactly optional) killed the Vita’s momentum right from the start. I realize that this…

But did they get Tim Allen for buzz? That’s the question...
Mostly just for streaming services, which many 4K TVs have built-in support for. But with my case in particular, I happen to have an Xbox One S in addition to my original PS4, which supports 4K streaming and blu-rays. Could I afford a PS4 Pro? Sure. But again, considering my current PS4 works just fine it’d seem like…
What’s funny is that I fully plan on buying a 4K TV in the near future. But a 4K TV *and* a PS4 Pro? And when my current PS4 still works just as good as the day I bought it? I don’t know if I can justify that.
If I had to guess, I’d say that while Sony will go ahead and name the next PlayStation the “PS5,” it will essentially be a generation-less console. It’ll support all the existing PS4 games, and obviously all of the PS5 games going forward. And at some point in the future, one of the PS5's incremental upgrades will…
People forget that the Wii dominated the last cycle in terms of raw sales numbers. It fizzled out near the end as HD essentially became the new standard, which is why I think people tend to brush it aside. But still, that generation was very much a win for Nintendo. And unlike with the switch, Sony and Microsoft were…
My guess is that Smash Bros. will take the Call of Duty development approach from here on out, where every new game is just an iteration of the last release (fundamentally the same game, but with new features, maps, etc.). Not necessarily a bad thing, it could mean we get new releases more often.
Nintendo was already able to add characters to Smash 4 via DLC. Adding new characters or changing the costumes of existing characters in a re-packaged version for the switch would not be hard at all, and is in all likelihood exactly what they did. Smash will become more like Call of Duty, were every new game is just…
Are our PS4s special or do this many people not realize this is already a feature?
This is totally a feature. I use it all the time! It’s located on your use profile. I’m pretty surprised more people don’t know about this.
Backwards compatibility should be pretty seamless going forward, now that consoles are essentially just mid-range PCs based on the x86 architecture. The PS5 will essentially be a PS4 with better specs, so there’s no reason to believe we won’t be able to play PS4 games unless Sony intentionally blocks that…
For a while it seemed like Nintendo was 100% dedicated to backwards compatibility. The Wii maintained all the functionality of a gamecube (played all the games, had all four controller ports, two memory card slots), and the Wii U played all the Wii games. With the Switch they just sort of gave up, although that mostly…
Yeah, even Nintendo of Europe is getting better about releasing more of the 3DS variants. But Nintendo of America has been the absolute worst, we’re really given the shaft over here. And this despite the fact that North America is Nintendo’s largest market, it makes no sense.
Yeah, it’d definitely just be easier to call/skype/facetime your friends with a headset plugged into your phone. It can run in the background and it’s obviously without interruption no matter what’s happening in the game. All Nintendo did here was create yet another third party calling app, except it’s significantly…

Canada, The United Kingdom, Germany, France and a couple other countries have all privatized their air traffic controllers, so it’s not like we don’t have some real life examples as to how this would work. As far as I can tell, your concern hasn’t been a problem.
It’s like Death Note meets Gundam, and boy is it good. The art style is a bit much, but you get used it. The show itself is definitely one of the best I’ve ever seen, anime or otherwise. I highly recommend it.
What a dumb excuse for not doing cutscenes. That’s like saying, “well, people spoiled the major plot details of my last movie online, so I’m just not going to make movies anymore.” Stuff gets leaked, story details get spoiled. It happens. But those of us who truly enjoy this stuff ignore all of that.
Does anyone really believe that a Japanese-made movie would’ve been better? Ok, so the actors would’ve been Asian. Big deal. The movie itself would still be mediocre at best, just like all the other live action anime/manga adaptations made in Hollywood and Japan alike. They’re pretty much all bad.
I’m in the camp that is all for these types of emulators. I owned a Wii and Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but used Dolphin Emulator to play the game on the go with my macbook. I don’t see the problem with this because ultimately Nintendo didn’t lose any money from me, and I’d be willing to bet that most of the people who…
