Nintendo NX: What you all thinking so far? Possible fail, or Nintendo's game changer?

Only the crappy ones no one buys.

Even then the discount's not very much. Their reward system is basically "spend a couple hundred bucks, get a 30% discount on year-old games that are still at full MSRP". Pretty pathetic compared to other deals out there...for example REmake, RE 0, RE 4, RE 5, RE 6, and RE Revelations 2 deluxe are currently $20 combined on the xbox store. PSN has some amazing ones, too. Nintendo? hell nah

And it's sad, Square will most likely not localize this even though the fan translation is actually very good.

Yeah this seems like a budget title. I find it highly unlikely they will translate Seiken Densetsu 3 just to sell a budget title/collection. Which is pretty sad, cause this title alone in English would sell me on the switch.

Didn't Nintendo mention years ago that they would make a secret of mana collection, but refused to because of piracy?

just emulate it, SK3 has had an english translation for over ten years.
stupid nerds.

Do you guys think this system will have a lineup of games like a console, or like a handheld system? I hope it will have the lineup of a DS/3DS.

I would say both.
• Old people and kiddos dont play full scale console games.
• Nintendo is gonna crank out console games for the masses anyways.

Splatoon 2 actually looks worse than the first game. :keke:

This will definitely happen; all these past handheld developers won't suddenly cease to exist, nor will all those handheld series. But the boarders between a console and a handheld game will surely loose their sharpness.

Local portable multiplayer. I'm still on the fence about the switch version. Rationally the Japanese language barrier, the joycons, or the tabletop setup would be a greater barrier than a laptop and usb hub.

But since when are people rational?

Played some of Blaster Master Zero earlier tonight...and wow, what an excellent remake/overhaul of the original NES game. This feels like a long-lost Super Nintendo game with some real meat to the game now.

It looks gorgeous, indeed. There's a very informative DF video on this topic here.

Why care about multiplayer when you don't have any friends?

Nintendo Switch...it off and throw it in the bin. They could've done all this on the Wii U.

Seconded. Tbh, anytime I see Inti Creates logo on a project, I'm immediately interested. They attained 'Legend' status after the MMZ series as far as I'm concerned.

The Azure Gun Strike Volt games are both very good too! They actually released a 3DS cart with both games in one.

Same reason there's a nerd somewhere that has every D&D book ever released but has never managed to play once. Self delusion is fun.

Yes, I really enjoy those games; they really got creative with the boss characters. I went out of my way to find the physical copy, and it's never far from my 3DS

Just go the fuck away. Please.

I ended up importing I Am Setsuna from YesAsia and got it about a week back and it's really fantastic. I know it isn't exactly a new game and multiplatform but it's a fun one, and I went with physical media since it was only $43 (vs $40 for digital) and was in English already too (and French.) I recommend ordering from them if you want it at the best price, ebay cocks want like $60 for it or more.

+1
Always solid 2d action to be found when they're involved imho. Back then, after their gba mmz games I was really hoping to see them tackle other 2d capcom franchises on gba like bionic commando or strider.

My gf has put more hours into Zelda than i have. She's terrible at anything that uses dual analogs, but she sticking it out with Zelda.

Tanooki · Mar 26, 2017

I've seen repeated comments like yours above along with stuff like:
- Dislike/hate open world but this is so well done it fixes the parts one hates about that
- Losing time like mad not realizing how much time is sunk
- ...yet never seems to feel old/stale
- Person usually disliked Zelda or this general style (third person exploration) games but likes it

It seems to break down some walls it's just so well crafted. Hopefully others take notes from the BotW playbook and really tries to make their open world titles more fun along these lines as perhaps it could open doors, unless it really is a mix of Nintendo magic/Zelda love doing it.

The fact that there is always something to see (Korok seeds, shrine/puzzles, memories, etc) or monsters to fight keep the game fresh.

Can't you play against bots?

heihachi · Mar 27, 2017

Anyone else still playing Binding of Isaac? I hate everything about how it looks and sounds--but I also haven't touched Zelda for 1.5 weeks now. I wish they sold some kind of skin DLC so I didn't have to look at the terrible art while I played.
