Nintendo Switch (Currently Plagued) - Here we shit post about the new Nintendo console, The Switch

[Pissmaster]

There's no projection. I'm telling you Ninty fags to stop whining and "back in the good 'ole days" we paid just as much regularly for new games and they didn't have online play or DLC bullshit.

So stop whining.

Ehh... I'm not interested in buying it either, but I'm with everyone else on the $70 price tag being bullshit out of principle. It's a game that reuses a lot of assets being released on an aging system. Comparing it to games of the 90s doesn't work well, either, considering a lot of those costs went towards those expensive-ass ROM cartridges, where every megabit cost a chunk of change Nowadays, it's $70 for a license on your account to download the game that'll be worthless when Nintendo shutters the Switch eShop in a decade or so.

If there's one thing I'd like to see out of Nintendo, it's a cancellation of Pikmin 4, so Arlo will dye his fur black and start cutting himself.

Advance Wars looks like shit, honestly
There's just something off about the art. Like, it's way too smooth and clean, both in comparison to the subject matter (of the game; its tone) and the original's style. All of the animation also looks excessively tweened. It's like a robot was told to remake the game with every modern reboot cliche known to man and this came out.
>Hand-drawn/toyetic graphics (or, in this case, both- stylistic clashing be damned) replacing old spritework
>snarky title and/or box print that adds a very unsubtle nod to the fact that it's a reboot/remake somewhere in there multiple times not sure this is as common as the rest but it irritates me to no end
>not made by the original dev studio; instead, handed over to total newcomers to the franchise (in this case, Wayforward, a shovelware dev)
>scraps the vast majority of the original's UI for modern (blander) do-overs
>keeping the spirit of the series' design aesthetic alive at all is optional
whether it also has irritating little tweaks that make it being the definitive version debatable is yet to be seen, but knowing how remakes work there'll probably be at least a few.
I don't care much about Zelda, but I care even less about this remake. At least Zelda has a chance of being decent.

I agree, it looks like crap. I'm not a fan of Wayforward's low-key horny artstyle. On top of that, it's only a remake of the first two games, both of which were on GBA, a platform that's never not been trivial to emulate. Including remakes of Dual Strike and Days of Ruin would give the collection some real value, considering those are stuck on the DS, and DS games tend to stay on the DS due to needing a complete reworking because of how everything's designed for that format.

Plus, it's full price. Sixty bucks for two GBA games. Come on, that's gross.

Then -like I said- don't buy it. And comparing it to carts is more than fair. Shit, with inflation those carts would be worth about $155 today.

I just find the bitching and moaning over $10 from Ninty fags who buy everything Nintendo puts out to be amusing.

 

[whatever I feel like]

Bullshit. Framerate and preferring one style over the other are one thing, but saying that there's no notable difference in styles is disingenuous or just ignorant.

Its not Cal Arts. I don't see Steven Universe bean mouths, that the big giveaway for me disliking something as "Cal Arts."

edit: The only thing saving this guy is his willingness to sacrifice Pikmin on the altar of salting the fields for that obnoxious handass.

im NOOOOOOOOOOT

Cartridges back in the day were badass. Some of them had dedicated GPUs built right in, just for their respective games. I'm sure there are some ancient newsgroup posts from the mid 90s where posters are calling the public total retards for buying up expensive Nintendo games, instead of the Genesis + CD + 32x combos where you'd get a more powerful system and tons of disc space for cheaper, because every game can share the hardware.

Buying games at full price is stupid, anyway. Even Nintendo games get a $10 discount every once a while, though that's usually from the store itself.

Yeah, or even the Aladdin Deck Enhancer back in the 80s.

Ryo Hirata was just a much better lead artist all-around, so WayForward's "faux-anime" artstyle for the remake feels like a downgrade by comparison.

They missed also the opportunity to add thick outlines all around the 3D unit models to make them look more appealing. And I can't help but notice they added black people for all units that have visible troopers, for every faction, but I pretty much expect american game development to always pull this stunt for the social credit points.

It's more likely the japanese playerbase will get the original GBA games on Switch through the NSO+ app anyway.

All this entire gaming forum on Kiwifarms seems to be is bitching about modern games. Why don't I see you throwing an autistic fit in literally every other thread about people simply not buying games when they complain about live service bullshit or woke DIE agenda shit infesting games? To you a price increase is the point where you should just shut up and move on?

Are you *really* sure you're not just projecting?

This thread has been really reserved with its bitching, I see no idiot organizing a boycott or stating that 60 was fine but 70 means pirate.

 

[Iron Jaguar]

It's not like Nintendo is charging $10 or your Switch will just turn off and never work again.

Fucking hell, Bruno - don't give Sony ideas!

Wayforward, a shovelware dev

In their early days, yeah. But nowadays? Lol no. They've made some of the best and most acclaimed indie games ever. I do agree that the AW reboot looks a bit crappier when compared to the original's art style though.

If there's one thing I'd like to see out of Nintendo, it's a cancellation of Pikmin 4, so Arlo will dye his fur black and start cutting himself.

Agreed. Why does that blue puppet faggot get his dream game, yet asking SEGA to freshen up a 20 year old RPG is too much?

If anything I'd say its the opposite, their titles have gotten worse over time. I wouldn't call them shovelware but they aren't the force they were back in the day when they were the little dev that could.

 

[mrs thickness]

The only things I really know Wayforward for are Shantae, Mighty Switch Force, and River City Girls, where one of the characters does a dab attack. If that's anything to go off of, then it's also safe to assume that at a black hole infantry will say Among Us at some point because that's what they look like, and i will jam a fork into my brain

i wish arlo would get forks jammed into his brain and eyes

 

[mrs thickness]

since it's too late to edit the post of my cringey joke, i must regretfully doublepost to inform any glowies reading the nintendo switch thread that i do not sincerely wish physical harm with kitchen utensils on the gay retard puppet man with the gayest retardest pikmin video ever made, only that he is sued into oblivion by the cookie monster. Thank you.

If they're remaking GBA games, they need to get cracking on Golden Sun. All that game needs is some rebalancing and a once-over (...maybe twice-over) on the script and you're good to go. Frankly they could just lift the changes from Reloaded and I'd be chuffed.

Didn't that game have a thing that would detect real world sunlight? They'd need to patch that out.

No that was another GBA game you are thinking about. Specifically Boktai, which was, wait for it, designed and produced by Hideo Kojima.

[Calandrino]

Wayforward made the best GBA game which is Godzilla Domination, they should remake that instead of Soyvance Bores. Please add Gigan, Gamera, and playable Steve Martin.

 

[Replacement Account]

They also made The Mummy Demaster.

It's a pretty decent metroidvania shooty thing all in all.

 

[Dr. Geronimo]

Look at you guys actually buying the games you play lmao.
